Chapter 22

After eating he set the dishes aside " I was going to leave some for you but I was too hungry, Do you want me to make you some?" he added.

No, don't bother. Paige said, since you are all filled up i should get going.

Can I kiss you, Trevor asked with a grin.

No!

But we are officially together,

I never agreed to it.

You kissed me back when I kissed you that was a response, he said while he moved his chair near paige, locking his legs with hers.

That was just a reflex, she argued.

Prove it.

What?

Prove it, prove its just a reflex, he said leaning closer to her face.

I... I can't ju..just force a reflex, it just happens naturally, she stuttered. "fuck these nerves she cursed internally"

Relax Sweetheart, he said with a calm voice an inch away from her face, their noses slightly brushing.

His too close, she thought, too close I can't think straight. I... her words were cut off when he suddenly pressed his lips on hers, unlike the previous kisses this one had no anger or desperation rather calm and collected.

It was only when she ran out of breath did she pull back. Am sorry, she said catching her breath, I just need more time, to uh process all this, she added.

With a conflicted face, Trevor held her face cheeks and brought her face close to his again. he softly kissed her afraid she might run off. I know, am going to keep waiting until you are ready, he assured her before kissing her one last time. Let's go on a date tomorrow?

You have a tournament to practice for, she said.

Its just one day, the date won't be for the whole day.

You have been away for some time we can have the date after your races next week.

Don't forget this you personally agreed to a date, he grinned.

I should get back to sleep, Paige said with a smile, see you tomorrow neighbor.

See you tomorrow Sweetheart. he said and watched her leave.

I can't believe you are dating Trevor Walter the youngest CEO to ever survive the business world, His also a racer with a heavenly built body, speak less of the body his fine features and face girl!, Denise exclaimed as she went on and on about how well Trevor looks, not that I haven't noticed, am just not the one to agree. She has been at it since she stepped into the office.

Did you fly all the way here to describe Trevor for me? Paige asked.

No i came here to deliver your new schedule since your last movie shooting besides Trevor, Dee explained.

Oh where am I going now?

Nowhere actually, you have been invited to join as an important guest for this years Formula three season.

What? No! we can't agree to it.

I already accepted it for you after I found out you and Trevor are dating, I...

That's the thing because Trevor and I are dating I can't be invited for the race. It will attract to much attention, I don't want to implicate his races and, and the people will talk and I.. paige panicked, her breathing rate getting faster as her vision became blurred.

Paige breath, Paige listen come here, Dee said and pulled her best friend in a hug. You will be attending as a guest at the race not as Trevor girlfriend or anything, your dating will be a secret so you don't have to worry about the spotlight and people, she added while soothing her.

But what if..

You won't be alone, you have Mike, Jackson, Me and now You have Trevor. Everything will be just fine, We can always cancel if it becomes too much.

You promise?

I promise to be by your side, Dee added only letting her go after she was sure her best friend was okay. So tell me, What does Trevor taste like?

Denise!

What am just curious.

We shall not be discussing my love life Denise please.

Where's the fun in that?

We are not officially going out and he doesn't need to know about my phobia.

If you are going to be together, he deserves to know.

Yes Dee i know but not yet I will tell him when am ready that's if we will be together, Paige said deliberately changing the topic. Now can we get going, I can't believe you drove here straight from the airport, you must be exhausted, Paige added grabbing her coat to leave.

Sensing her friend didn't want to to talk more, she played along dropping the issue. I couldn't wait to see you, also I didn't drive Mike dropped me off.

Let us go celebrate your return, Paige offered.

After I rest please, Dee said following her friend out of the hospital.

AT HOME.

When the men returned from their practice, night had already fallen. They had been training endlessly since Trevor returned to make up for the missed training and now only have three days to go.

Why did you make so much food? Mike asked the moment in stepped into the house

Oh you guys are back, Paige said carrying a tray of food to the dinning table, get changed and join us for dinner before it gets cold, she added.

What is the occasion? Charles asked, are you getting married?

No special occasion Charles its nice to have a meal together every once in a while.

I thought since last night we... his words where caught off by Trevor's glare, sending shivers up his spine. Am sorry miss paige I..I misspoke Charles added right Mike let us go finalize the plan, he said and hurriedly walked away pulling Mike with him.

What plan? the clueless Mike tried to protest but was too late for they were already out of sight.

Do not take his words to heart, he likes to spout nonsense sometimes, Trevor said retracting his view away from the now disappeared Charles back to Paige.

I did not take it to heart. How has been practice?

It's been exhausting, he chuckled after speaking. How was work today?

The same, no one died thankfully. Are you ready for it?

I was born ready, he said while stroking his left brow twice with his hand. So what's the occasion?

Its just casual dinner, go get changed you come eat before it gets cold.

Yes sweetheart, he replied and left.

This is the Third time his calling sweetheart, not Paige, not Dear but Sweetheart, Paige blushed at that thought of being called Sweetheart.

In no time every one was all changed and where gathered at the dinning table with Trevor seated next to Paige because well why wouldn't he want to. Next to them was Denise in a fierce cold war with her partner across the the table Charles.

It seems I don't need to introduce you two, Paige spoke referring to Charles and Denise.

Save your breath Paige, his not worthy of an introduction, Denise spoke with anger, still glaring at Charles.

Its not like you are worthy of one yourself, Charles added.

I don't wish to know how you two know each other, Paige said but can we peacefully enjoy this dinner please.

Yes please food, Trevor added grabbing a plate to serve Paige, let me help you Sweetheart.
