CHAPTER 9: WEDDING NIGHT III
CHAPTER 9: WEDDING NIGHT III
it wasn't long after James slept that someone kicked his shin. James groaned in his sleep and rubbed his shin subconsciously and slept back it wasn't up to 2 minutes he slept the next place that was kicked was his knee.
James stood up this time and looked across from him in the dim light in the room, he saw Diana sprawled on the bed karate style sleeping peacefully. He noticed her red panties under her nightie so tempting he thought he closed her legs and laid down back to sleep.
Just as he closed his eyes again to sleep she kicked his stomach hard that he nearly fell of the bed. James got up and rubbed his stomach he looked at the woman sleeping on the other side even the pillows that were demarcating them she had somehow kicked them off at night because they all littered on the floor.
He listened to her breathing and groaned inwardly he was now regretting why he said the both of them sleep in the same room. Well if she kicked him again she was going to receive it hot. Since he couldn't really trust her, he held her both legs in his and laid back down.
Diana felt herself being tied down in her sleep, she mumbled and grumbled twisting herself occasionally until she was released. James sighed and reluctantly released her.
About 30mins later when James felt nothing was going to happen again he relaxed and went to sleep. An hour later, he felt a sharp pain in his groin and realized that she had kicked him again he shouted this time and jumped up.
Diana jumped up at the same time too her eyes darted around as she found James standing at the foot of the bed.
Hey what's wrong with you she said in a groggy voice, you should watch where your going to at night and stop shouting to disturb someone's sleep. Goodnight she yawned and slept back again lying properly this time.
James: .....!
He gritted his teeth and imagined himself going close to strangle her. He shook the thought and went back to bed. He laid at a corner close to the edge far away from her antics and tried to go back to sleep but the night was a torturous one. No matter how he tried he discovered she was not going to let him sleep tonight.
At dawn when she finally settled down he felt like he could go back to sleep and then she completely kicked him off the bed it was only when he fell did he completely give up on sleep.
James stood up and laughed at himself. Who would imagine that a little girl like her could kick a whole CEO like him off the bed if word of this ever got out.... infact he didn't want to even think about it. He felt tired and it visibly showed on his face. He groggily stretched and went to prepare for work.
***************†††††*****************
Diana got up the next morning. She looked at the time and discovered it was about 7:00 in the morning. She stretched and yawned trying to remember where she was.
When she finally remembered she quickly sat up and looked at her side she raised her brows when she discovered that the pillows she had used as a wall were no longer there.
Well, he must have kicked the pillows off at night she thought, she will not forget to ask him later. She touched the place he laid and discovered it was still a little warm which meant it was not long he got up. James came out from the walk-in closet well dressed and looking very sharp, smart and handsome in his dark grey 3 piece layer suit.
Diana stared at him and couldn't take her eyes off, he had the build-tall, rangy, muscled, broad shoulders, narrowed hips with trousers that did not nothing but expose the beauty of his long long legs.
He had a charm the way those blue eyes of his lingered on a woman, the quick appreciative smile when he spoke to her and a not so cheerful manner that could as easily explode into a temper then just as quickly edge away into a laugh if she was lucky enough to see it that is.
James looked towards the bed and saw his worst nightmare staring at him after touching where he had slept previously. He cleared his throat and called out to her
"Diana"
Diana smiled at him sheepishly, well she looked bright this morning James thought resentfully.
Diana blinked twice and smiled. "Oh my! Don't you look so good this morning and extremely handsome at that!"
Since when did they become friends James asked himself.
"Oh, i also noticed you kicked out the pillows at night, you should really learn how to sleep properly."
James: .....!
'what the hell'? Like was she kidding him right now! But of course he did not say it out loud he just continued staring at her like she had gone mad as she rambled on.
"And your eyes look bloodshot," Daina continued. "You must have tossed and turned alot at night that you were not able to sleep properly."
'Thickskinned' was the only thing James thought at that moment. 'Interesting and thickskinned'. So she really had no idea?
James finally spoke up. "Diana do you watch alot of action movies?"
Diana shook her head, "no not really. Why do you ask?"
Never mind James said angrily and walked out of the room banging the door loudly behind him.
Diana blinked and shivered what was wrong with him this morning and why was he so cranky or was it because he woke up on the wrong side of the bed? She stood up and entered the bathroom to quickly freshen up.
James got downstairs and found his brother relaxing on his couch and flipping the channels on the large screen Tv like he owned the place. He went close to him and slapped him behind his head.
"What the fuck!" Jared said as he turned and was about to curse more but then he came in contact with his brother's cold face and bloodshot eyes.
Jared stood up quickly and smiled kowtowing over and over to his brother, "my amazing, sweet and cute brother i see your night was not so good, sister-in-law must have kept you up all night, what a nice sister-in-law i have."
James: ...!
'It seemed to him like everyone around him had gone crazy or perhaps they were planning to make him go crazy'
Diana was in the bathroom as she sneezed without knowing why.
Angelo stood by the side and rolled his eyes at his boss's younger brother, he had never seen anyone so shameless. He was just the same person telling him that his brother will pursue his wife in less than two days that they should bet because he did not like her now he had changed all of a sudden in front of his brother.
James slapped him again this time in front of his head. "Shut up and stop talking nonsense. Don't you have work to do, and why are you here? It seems like you have been very less busy lately."
Jared hurriedly rushed to his brothers side and held his arm, "dear brother i just came to escort you to work seeing you must have been stressed out at night."
"Well get out" James said pushing him off his arm and kicking him straight at his butt. "I don't need it".
Jared rubbed his butt and watched as his brother walked towards the door. Well his mood was a lot worse today, he wondered what happened.
Nicodemus the butler came to him and bowed slightly. "Sir are you going to have breakfast now?"
"Keep your breakfast Nick and make sure the Madam eats properly before she leaves the house. Tell Antonio to drive her to wherever she wants to go." He turned to Angelo,
"Angelo!"
Angelo instinctively stood erect and responded "Yes Chairman"
Jared smirked when he saw this.
"Your driving".
"Yes Chairman," he responded and stepled out first without waiting for further instructions..
Inside the Black Bentley, James sat at the back seat fuming, his brother sat at the front passenger seat while Angelo took the wheel.
The atmosphere in the car was stifling to the point Jared could take it no longer he pulled down the windows of the car to let the cool breeze in. Antonio also felt it because his knuckles that were resting on the wheel kept turning white over and over again and his hands felt clammy he didn't know when his boss was going to flare up.
Just as he finished his thoughts, James growled at his brother "Fucking close the damned windows Jared before i personally kick you out of the car."
Both Jared and Angelo shivered in unison as Jared shut the window. Angelo thought within him, this particular brother was just useless.
