Eight

Ty's POV 

 

"Are you telling me you are thinking about buying this place for yourself?" I ask as she stands looking out over the land, she turns around and starts making her way over to the kitchen island where I am 

"Yes, I mean it is perfect and it makes sense. It had the huge guest house and Bri and Claire live with me and have done since Bri's dad passed away six months ago, Claire and he had been putting money away since Bri was little so they could have a comfortable retirement but after she got over the shock of his death, she went to the bank to check on their savings only to realise he had been taking money out for the last three years and had left the family completely broke" she stops and takes a deep breath "When Bri told me what happened, I couldn't sit by and do nothing. I offered them one of my properties but her mom is too proud to accept help so I told them they could live with me; I was heavily pregnant with Ava so Claire helped out a lot which is when I realised, I could pay her to help me with the house and Ava when I was at work. I gave Bri a job as my assistant as I knew looking after Ava would come first and I didn't want my business to fail considering how hard I worked to build it up, I bought her the club and gifted it to her for birthday."  

 

It's when she stops talking it all starts falling into place, my parents had told me how invested Bella had been in helping out their charity. I mean the deal she did for them for the property development they viewed the other day was extravagant, this woman is so kind-hearted I mean raising a baby as a single mom I can only imagine how tough that would be and I am glad she has people around to help. 

 

"You are a beautiful person Bella, and I don't think you even realise it. If you want to buy this place, I am sure my parents would accept less, considering this money is just going to their charity anyway." she gasps and stares at me 

"Your parents aren't keeping the money from their house sale for themselves?" I shake my head 

 

"No, they have enough money to live on without worrying about anything, so it's a better way to give the charity a boost" she nods and it looks like she is coming up with a plan in that pretty head of hers "Do you want to have a look around? I am just going to check in with Rome" 

 

"Yes, thank you Ty" she smiles before walking off, taking my phone out of my pocket I call Rome and he answers after the third ring 

 

"Where you at Ty?" 

"Jeez not even a Hi?" I laugh "I am showing Ava my parents place, so I'm not going to make it" 

"Fuck, alright man" 

"Oh, and by the way, Bri has been through some serious shit recently so make sure you treat her good, right?"  

"I will bro, I like her. She has been telling me about why she lives with Bella" I hear him sigh, Rome is like me we have never had to struggle for anything  

"Yeah, it's bad shit. Just make sure she is alright man, I got to go but let me know when you have got her dropped off alright?" 

"Sure thing, see ya" I hang up putting the phone back in my pocket and start wondering around looking for Bella, I give up and pull my phone out sending her a message  

 

'Where are you?' 

'Upstairs, master balcony' I make my way upstairs and into the master bedroom, and she stands on the balcony overlooking the land and the area around. I sneak up behind her placing my hands either side of hers on the balcony railing  

"Fuck! You scared the crap out of me Ty, are you a ninja or something?" she giggles placing her hand on her chest 

"Sorry beautiful" I whisper and I see and feel her body tremble, don't worry you have the same effect on me' I think to myself. "Like what you see up here?" she turns her head slightly to look at me 

"Most definitely" I step back slightly not wanting to scare her off, if I am being honest this woman scares the crap out of me. "So, what are you thinking?" I ask and she responds with a smirk "Regarding the property, I'll probably put an offer in- regarding you, well I am not sure what to make of you. I mean you are a known playboy but yet you give off weird commitment vibes and regarding the time of evening I should probably head home" well push me over with a feather, I was not expecting that response, I raise an eyebrow and she laughs 

"Well, I like your first regard but your opinion of me seems to be slightly off, you see what people see is what the media wants to show, what they don't want people to see is celebrities' who are faithful or married, they want scandals, affairs and gossip and in regards to the time, if you want to go home, I will ride with you then head home but tell me one thing first" I pause as she tilts her head to the side waiting for me to continue "Why can't I stay away from you, I mean I am not a playboy like the media make me out to be but yes I don't have a great track record when it comes to relationships, but for some reason I find myself wanting to see you or talk to you all the time. Why?" 

 

"I don't know but I could ask you the same, no I am asking you the same" she says back, now standing right in front of me. 

"I can't answer because I don't know, I feel like you could be dangerous or we could be dangerous. We are alike in a lot of ways maybe that's why we have a connection or maybe that's why I think this could be dangerous" I respond but my mouth opened and those words came out, it's true I get a dangerous vibe from her maybe that's why I always feel these strange sparks when I am with her. 

 

"I think you are right, and I know I am dangerous but I think together could fatal" She smirks as her eyes brighten "I need to get back to Ava" she turns to walk out of the room and I don't know what I am thinking but I grab her wrist pulling her back to me, her back is tight against my chest, brushing her hair around her back leaving her neck bare I lean in pressing my lips to her shoulder leaving a trail of kisses up her neck and placing a final kiss right below her ear and Bellas body trembles "I am like a moth and you're the flame, I am drawn to you no matter how much I try to resist, I'll always want more" she giggles and turns slightly "Okay playboy, less of the cheese. Let's go" she laughs which makes me laugh as she runs out of the room and down the stairs, she really is dangerous, if she carries on like this, she is definitely going to kill me.
