Chapter 7 A rude interruption

What do you want Oliver? I said with no emotion into the receiver. I was trying to steady my breathing without him noticing.' Where the hell are you Addy?

Damn it. He sounded really pissed. Why the heck did he care where I was?

Why should I tell you? I don't owe you any explanation.

He laughed and then his voice got cold, don't forget that you have a debt to pay off. I'm in charge of you for the time being, so damn it! Tell me where you are.

I clenched my fists and got up from my seat. You know what ,I've had enough of this bull crap! I quit! I'll send you the money I owe you when I get it so leave the hell alone!

I pressed the end button and cursed. That situation started from bad to absolute chaos. I had to find somewhere to sleep tonight and it sure as hell would not be Oliver's home.

I grabbed my bag and dialed Jessica's number. She answered with a yawn.

Hey babe...What's up?

~Oliver POV~

I chucked my phone at the couch not caring if it broke or not. Did she just hang up on me?

I ran a frustrated hand through my hair. That girl....

I felt something soft brush my leg. I looked down surprised to see a cat. I jumped back and tried to shoo him away.

Get away fur ball. I don't need you to make anymore trouble for me.

The fur ball looked up at me and let out a small meow. I frowned and knelt down.

I scratched behind his ears and he purred in response. What's wrong with your owner? Just leaving you here and not letting us know where she is....

I got up and grabbed my phone. This woman was definitely going to get it. I went to grab my car keys when I had a sudden thought.

She'll have to come back sometime...I mean she left that cat here.

I smiled and set my keys down. Time to wait her out. I leaned back into the couch and tapped my foot.

~Addison POV~

Jessica giggled when I told her about my week. Oh my gosh! You totally like him!

I smacked her arm and watched her wince. What the hell! I told you I can't stand him.

she scooted away from my and hugged her pillow, yeah but you practically turned into tomato when you were describing his-

I threw my pillow at her. Shut up Jess!

you're supposed to agree with me and tell me to never go back there again!

She laughed and threw the pillow back at me. What about your cat?

My mouth dropped open at the realization. I slapped my forehead and jumped off the bed. I'm so stupid! He must think I abandoned him .I'm such a horrible person!

she shrugged and handed me my keys. I took them and screamed into the pillow in my hand. That made Jessica howl with laughter.

Thanks for laughing at my misery .I mumbled.

She jumped off the bed and gave me a hug. Good luck baby girl. It will be alright.

I smiled and hugged her back. She always made me smile in the worst situations.

My heart instantly started pounding when I pulled into Oliver's long driveway. I parked the car and took a deep breath. No matter what I need to get my cat out of that house. I devised a plan into my head.

I could always sneak in through the back. That door never seems to be locked. Well, Here I go....

I quietly shut my car door and made my way around the back ,trying my best not to knock over any of the fancy pots or flowers. When I made it to the back door I was practically shaking .How the hell was I supposed to get my cat out without him noticing? I lifted my wrist and squinted my eyes at my cheap watch.

11:30p.m

Perfect .No way would he be up this late at night. I quickly thanked God for letting his room be all the way down the hall from mine. I slowly turned the knob and pushed open the door a crack. The house was pitch black. Perfect.

I smiled and let myself in and closed the door carefully. I tiptoed my way through his large home trying desperately not to knock anything over. By the time I made it to the door my eyes had fully adjusted to the dark. I pushed open my door and heard a soft meow. I felt for the light switch and flipped it on.

shit!

I gulped loudly when I came face to face with a very handsome man. He was sitting on the edge of my bed and smirking .Shit ! shit ! shit! shit.

So , you decided to come back then?

I picked up my cat and quickly shoved him into the cage near my foot. I'm here for my cat actually.

I pushed the cage out into the dark hall ignoring the meows. I would give him an extra treat later to make up for my abruptness. He slowly got off of the bed and made a tsk tsk noise with his mouth. I glared at him and crossed my arms.

Where will you go ? He turned his head to the side and gave me an amused look.

I swallowed loudly and looked away. I felt so low and ashamed in front of this man Anywhere but here....

I felt this warm hand wrap under my chin .My face was involuntarily tilted to his direction. I bit the inside of my mouth nervously. I hated the affect he had on me when he was only inches in front of me. I tried to turn my head but he held my face in place. I looked anywhere but where he was. I didn't want him to see what he did to me.

Look at me.

I ignored him and frowned. He shoved me against the wall and pulled my face up. I gasped and (I swear it was an accident) looked at him. His face was soft butt his eyes were firm and heated.

Don't leave.

I smacked his hand away from my face and poked him in the chest. Why do you constantly think that my life is suddenly in your control? huh? I've known you for probably a month and you suddenly think that gives you the right to-

I was (rudely) interrupted by Oliver slamming his lips onto mine. Just like the first time my mind became blank. Why was it that every time I did anything that involved Oliver my mind turned off? I mean I hated this man.

At least I thought I did...

His tongue grazed my lip and I couldn't help but open my mouth and let his explore mine. My hands ran up to his hair and I tugged hard making him groan. My heart was pounding so hard. My hands snaked down his hard chest and I was shocked to find that his heart was thudding as fast as mine. He grabbed my legs and hoisted them up around his waist.

I didn't realize that we had moved until I felt my back hit the soft covers. My fingers were sprawled on his stomach and I could feel him tense under my touch. Feeling confident I pulled myself over him so I was straddling him. He had a surprised look on his face which made me grin. He chuckled and cupped his hands around my cheeks. I leaned down and kissed his lips softly. He sighed and felt his warm breath wash over me.

I pulled back slightly so I was resting my arms on his chest. Oliver? My voice was shaky and small.

He put one of his arms behind his head and leaned back. Hmm ?

I bit my lip. How was I supposed to say this?

He brought his free hand up to my face jolting me out of my thoughts. Tell me what you are thinking.

I tried to roll off of him but he was quicker. Suddenly I was underneath him with both my hands pinned beside my head.

Tell me what you are thinking? He repeated slower.

Oliver, what are you doing?

The words came out exasperated and rushed.

He rolled off of me so we were laying side by side. I shifted so my body was facing him .He was silent. I was beginning to feel embarrassed and frustrated. He didn't make any sense and he was messing with my feelings.

I sat up and ran a hand through my now tangled hair. I'd better leave now. His hand slowly gripped my wrist and his voice was soft nd almost too quiet.

Addy ,please stay. I don't know what the hell this is but I can't seem to let it go. Please , just stay for the night. It's almost midnight and I would feel uneasy with you driving this late.

My heart was thudding against my chest ridiculously hard . I took in a sharp breath and gave him my answer.

Just for one night....
