The drive back to the penthouse was silent, and awkward. After the announcement made during dinner Eros was silent and looked so far away. Shit..this was all my fault.

Jade told me she had not yet decided when to do the wedding...at least that still give us time to come about some excuses as to why we can't do the wedding to together.

He got out of the car and stormed inside the house, not waiting for me.

Yh he was beyond pissed, at least his plan was going well. I opened the door to my side and entered the house. I saw him in the kitchen opening a bottle of beer and chugging the contents into his mouth.

"Eros..." I said calmly approaching him "I'm sorry." I said when I was finally at his front, the look on his face didn't show anger so I guess that was progress. "I didn't me-" he c

    We were already in Eros car on our way to see my brother and my parents. But, Eros has been cold and quite. We were just talking yesterday night, how come he is annoyed??"Is there anything you want to tell me?" I asked as I played with the phone in my hand and turned my body towards him."What do you mean?" He said in a monotone not taking his eyes away from the road.What is wrong with this guy??!"You've been quiet lately and -" he cut me off harshly, "I can be quiet whenever I want." he said.I glared at him, "If this is about what happened yesterday I-""Can we please not talk about this?" He glanced at me, "And if you think it's because of what happened yesterday then you're wrong."So if it isn't what happened yesterday, then why the sudden attitude??I turned my body away from him and leaned my head on the window sighning. I just c

    I opened the door to the house and dropped my bag on the couch. I glared at Eros."What?" He asked and I I crossed my arms glaring at him "really?you are asking me that?"He took a step towards me and I took a a step back. He smirked and took another step and I did the same until I couldn't move again because of this dammed wall.He placed both of his arms on either sides of my head caging me between him and the wall "why are you mad at me?" He asked."Can you just get out of my personal space?" I asked as I glared at him."So you are saying you are mad at me cause I am not giving you attention??" He asked, actually yeah that is the reason but I am not obviously going to tell him that.I glared at him, "you know this all pretend right? And I am still your boss."Okay, he did not need to point it out. I already got the message."And l

    It has been two weeks since myself and Eros attended his Parent's dinner, since we visited my parents and since we signed the contract. We haven't really been on talking terms. I mean, we do go to the office together or sometimes we don't and my colleagues are beginning to suspect that there's something between us. Well, sooner or later they are all going to find out.Daine has been really nice and I met her daughter, Maria. She has a really good personality though she's a little bit blunt, scratch that, she's very blunt though we clicked instantly. I met up with Jade and we talked about what went on in our lives the last time we saw each other. She promised she was going to hang Eros when she sets her eyes on him. I don't think she likes him anymore. Maria finally decided to hang out with myself and Jane, we had a girl's night at Jane's place, finally another girl in the group.Jane said she's due in about three weeks from now and it's a girl and a boy. Yes, twins! I

    Throughout the car ride Eros did not say a word to me. I could see him clenching and unclenching his fist. I don't even know a precise reason why he is acting mad at me. I didn't even do anything or say anything."Were you flirting with that guy?" He asked suddenly immediately we entered the living room.I turned around and then crossed my arms glaring at him. So this is what this is about. "What do you mean?""You were definitely flirting with the guy at the coffee shop." She sat down on the couch and then removed his suit."You know, because I am not showering you the attention you need doesn't mean you should go around flirting with over men."What the fuck is he talking about."I know you like me alot Janet, but you're not my toe of girl. This contract brought us together because I needed your help and-"I didn't allow him to complete what he wanted to say before cutting him off, "fuck you!" I grabbed my bag whic

    When I woke up the next morning with my hair sticking up in different directions, I brushed my teeth and then had my bath but not before making sure my room was clean. I dresser up in my undergarments, wore an off shoulder sheath lace beaded gown and black heels.I put on a light make up and straightened my hair. I picked up my phone and went downstairs to meet Eros. He had his hair in the normal style, black shirt with the sleeves rolled to his fore arms coupled with a black pants. I saw him staring at my revealing cleavage before he cleared his throat and then picking up his keys."Let us go."Okay, no compliment?He surprisingly opened the door for me, "thank you." I gave him a small smile and entered. He walked around the car and closed his door."You look beautiful.""Thanks. You look good also." I mumbled a blush creeping into my face and I heard him chuckle.The drive was silent but not awkward."We are here." he parked his car in

    I stood at the front of his door and knocked, the door swung open and he was standing there shirtless. He is so hot..."wha-" he started talking but I cut him off by placing my lips on his...he was hesitant at first but later took control of the kiss and I wrapped my arms around his neck and moaned into the kiss.He pulled me into the room then closed the door, he wrapped my legs around his waist and placed me against the door, he detached his lips from mine and traced my jaw with his lips. I moaned his name, I pulled his hair which made him closer and placed my lips on his. I wanted to be in control so we both fought for control and he won. I really needed him right now..."I-I need you Eros" I stuttered and arched my back, this is a burning desire..."I really need you too, you do not know how much" he whispered in my ear "th-then t-take me" I stuttered.He carried me and placed me on the bed "are you nervous?" He asked clearly amused at how he is teasing me."Er

    I think Rose is going to be so mad when you tell her you do not want to have the wedding together." Eros said as he unbuttoned his suit and draped it across the arm of the blue couch in his office."Me or we?" I asked as I pushed him lightly, making him fall lightly on the couch, letting out an "umph." SoundHe smirked at me as I crawled and sat on him, well, technically straddling. "we?""Yes, we." I replied as I placed a light peck on his lips. "I am definitely not telling her alone.""Okay, fine." He chuckled and then gripped my hips to place me directly on his already growing bulge, making me gasp."Only you can do that." He whispered into my ear, his voice already deeper and I can see how the lust clouded his face.His hands started trailing my back, down my spine and up again. He kissed me lightly on my neck, down to the swell of my breasts. I arched my body towards him, even though Eros and I have never had sex well most times we were always at t

    Today is Monday and Eros has not already returned from his meeting since Friday. He called me yesterday night informing me he would not be able to make it yesterday. I was a little sad and I think he took notice of that because we did some sexting and video call before I fell asleep, thinking about him.Presently I was at work and I had about five more minutes till my lunch break. I finally decided to go early since I had nothing to work on at the moment. The elevator doors were about to close when a manly hand came in between to stop them, followed by the British guy from the coffee shop. I am pretty sure he saw the surprise look on my face because he gave me a small smile."Hi." He said, his thick British accent prominent."Hi." I replied back a little nervous. He has a nice smell but Eros still smelt better. "You are the guy I met at the coffee shop the last time." I started a conversation immediately the elevator started moving downwards."Yeah, I am." He gla

    Five years later..."Mom! James is being an idiot right now." I heard my daughter's loud voice call from the living room. I sighed and rolled my eyes as I dusted the flour on my hands, making my way to the living room to check up on Jane and her brother.Yes, Jade and Diane eventually named her Jane."What is going on here?" I asked and then saw both of them arguing over who gets the remote."Jane does not want to turn off the TV!" James said."Why should she turn off the TV darling?" I asked as I knelt down in between both of them with the remote in my hand."Because I am trying to draw and I can not do that with that...noise coming from the TV." He groaned."That is what he could have said." I heard Jane say as she rolled her eyes.I sighed, "that should not call for arguements between both of you." I pushed the lock of hair that fell on my face. I lowered the volume of the tv and then, "better?" I asked James."Yes. Thanks Mom." He gri

    You did really good in there." Eros whispered soothingly as on of his hands massaged my head, making me feel sleepy."Thank you, for being in there with me." I gave him a small smile."We are a team, of course I will always be there with you." He placed a kiss on my forehead."Where are my babies?" I asked as I looked around the room but found their cribs empty."The nurses took them away to clean them up.""Okay.""You should sleep. You are probably tired already.""hmmn." That was the last thing I heard before I fell asleep. Whoever said child birth is easy, is definitely out of his or her mind. For a second there what was running through my mind was, 'I was not going to make it. I can not push out a second child, even the first one took everything in me not to pass out. I would tell Eros to take care of my children if I die.' but I made it, I am alive with my two kids and a husband who loves me dearly.My parents told me they would be here

    The wedding was so beautiful, I even had to tear up a little. Rose and Harry both said their vows and then Harry proceeded to kiss his bride. After that the reception was next, we all moved to where the reception was going to be held. Harry's parents invited a lot of people, including their business partners. I met Rose' family for the second time, the first time was during the preparations."When do you think we should have our own wedding?" I heard Eros say from behind me as his warm hands wrapped around my belly, pulling me closer to his body.I grinned, "when our daughter turns one."He exhaled as he put his face in-between my neck, "I can wait." He turned me towards him, so I was facing him and then, "we would have a beautiful family."I pecked him on his lips, "I know. And, I'm glad it's with you.""Me too.""Do you want to dance?" I asked him grinning."Yes, come on." We both made our way to the dance floor and then started dancing until the

    Saying I am not nervous will be a lie. I have been standing at his front door for like two minutes now. I already practiced what to say, why is it then so hard to knock on the stupid door. You can do it. You are made of steel baby.I knocked on the door and cleaned the imaginary dust on my jeans. There was no answer. I knocked again and this time I heard footsteps coming towards the door. I breathed out.The door opened, revealing Kevin. He smiled at me and I gave him a nervous smile. He probably thinks of me as a bad person. "Is he home?" I asked looking behind him. "Yeah." he answered and opened the door wider so I could enter. "Thanks." I said."He is in his room." he said leaving me alone as he went to the kitchen. I dropped my bag, but before I could climb up the stairs Kevin said, "please forgive him Janet, he made a mistake and he really needs you." he said and walked back into the kitchen.Everything was how I left it. Nothing has changed. I was scared. W

    JANET JACKSON.I woke up the next day feeling better than I have felt in days. Since I was going to Eros family's house I get to see Eros, happy that we get to settle this shit. Happy that I can get my man back. I groaned as I sat up on my bed with a missed call from Eros mother. Weird. And the message and voice note I sent to Eros, he has not listened to any of it.Well, maybe his phone is dead or something. Yeah, that should be it.I made a mental note to call Eros' back when I am done with my routine. I went into the bathroom and had my bath and made sure I shampooed my hair. I got out of the bathroom, feeling refreshed. I wrapped my fluffy white towel around my body and one around my head, so it would get dry to some point.I made my way downstairs with my phone in hand only to see that Jade and Diane were no where in sight. I picked up the yellow sticky note with Jade's handwriting she left on the fridge. We went out for a run,

    It has been two weeks last since I saw Eros. Since I smiled at him and likewise. It has been two weeks since I last felt the butterflies fluttering in my chest whenever he kisses me. And, oh, his kisses. I have been miserable this past two weeks, just sitting alone in the house and we'll, sometimes with Jade's sons, which is very streesful if you ask me. I had to quit my job and I am already planning on opening a clothing store.Today has been really weird for me. Eros stopped calling me which made me sad. My parents moved away from their old house into a more comfortable one, my mom has her own bakery, dad has his own car shop and my brother will graduate high school soon.Today is Friday and Jade is staying home with me cause she said I have been behaving weird lately. I mean why would she think that? Okay, maybe apart from the constant mood swings and all. I tried talking her out of it but she would not listen to me.She said I should not think of it as if she is m

    I woke up with my alarm blaring form my phone. I woke up and checked my phone. Emma had already sent the message to me.Joe's place. 1pm. Joe's place was a coffee shop that Emma and I have gone to take coffee and cookies.I read the message and placed my phone back on the bed side table. I groaned as I ran my hands through my hair which was a mess right now.It was still 10am. There is still time. I got out of bed and went downstairs. I met Jade already dressed."Hey." she greeted as she sipped from her coffee."Morning." I replied as I picked up her cup and drank out of it. "I could have made another one, you know?" she said as she gave me a small smile."Sorry. I needed it." I replied as I poured myself my own cup this time."How are you doing?" She asked looking at me sympathetically. "I am fine." I said as I sipped my coffee."Are you sure?" She asked as she washed her cup in the zinc before drying it. "Yh, I am meeting Emma later today."

    I came back downstairs already changed. I missed a step which made me almost falling,but thank goodness I didn't. I saw Eros arguing with the lady. She glanced over at me and smirked. Bitch. I walked past both of them until Eros grabbed my arm. His hair was already dishveled probably from running his hands through them. "Don't.you.dare.touch.me" I seethed through gritted teeth glaring at him."Please Janet,you said nothing was going to change the way you feel about me." He pleaded softly. And, there was this visible sadness in his eyes that made my heart ache for him, for us. "Then, maybe we both lied." I shrugged. I would have given in but...he hurt me. I shook my head vigorously as more tears came down, then snatched my arm away from his grasp and then left his house...their house. I felt wetness on my cheeks...I really loved him, and I believed he loved me. I hailed a cab and told him the address of Jade, she went to her parents house but she said she would be back today and

    Eros could not tell me what he wanted to say, that was making him so tense and nervous because I slept throughout our car ride back home. When he parked his car, he opened the door to my side, the passenger seat and then carefully lifted me off my seat, but first unbuckling my seatbelt. He carried me in bridal style and then used his legs to shut the door since I was already in his arms.I knew the time he started carrying me up the stairs. I wrapped my arms tightly around his neck and then took in his scent. "Did you just sniff me?" He asked with a hint of amusement in his tone."No, I did not." I immediately denied it.He shook his head at me and then looked down at me with a small smile. He finally got to our room and did not bother putting on the lights since we were about to sleep. He placed me on the bed in a gentle manner and then removed my shoes even though I told him I could do it myself.He later helped me to zip down my dress and then removed it from
