Chapter 7 Tryna Steal A Kiss,Huh?
- Then,she blew her nose with his sleeve.
- Larry faced sideways, already feeling irritated.
- Gosh!
- He couldn't believe he allowed her to clean her nose with his sleeve.
- Ew!. Gross.
- *This is just for tonight. Just for tonight.*the word resounded in his head.
- Annie dropped his hand and that was when he looked at her.
- He stared at his sleeve and it was already wet.
- Ugh!.
- "Thanks."Annie said.
- Larry watched her as her eyes started closing.
- Soon, her eyes closed finally and her head fell back on his strong and comforting chest.
- She rubbed her head against his chest like a puppy and smiled in her sleep.
- Larry stay stilled for a moment.
- Seriously?.
- This girl is a pain in the ass!.
- He wanted to push her away but he shook his head at the thought.
- No,he would just wake her up and he didn't want to do that.
- Larry's brows creased up in a frown.
- "What do you think you're doing?. Trying to steal a kiss from your boss?, don't you think that's rude, little miss?."
- Annie stared back at him, embarrassed.
- "I wasn't...hm!, trying to anything...I just.."
- "I hope you do know your incompetent in telling lies. Geez, I thought you're better than that. Didn't actually think you're just like every other ladies. I thought you were different. Ugh,get the hell out of my face,poor ugly slut!."
- What?..
- Annie gasped.
- She moved back from his face and dug at her lower lips.
- She just literally disgraced herself.
- She was the cause for this hurtful words.
- Well,she expected it tho.
- The sweet moment were just for that little moment.
- "Kiss stealer."Larry mumbled and got up then walked away.
- Geez... what a bitch she is!.
- "Hey,get into that kitchen and cook for me cause I'm damn hungry!."he yelled half way through the stairs.
- Annie smiled bitterly.
- *Poor ugly slut!.*
- No one has ever called her that.
- Well,she had seen his caring side in the mid - night and now, she's left with no option but to see his grumpy and rude side.
- She stood up and went to the kitchen.
- She started cooking and when she was done,she set the table and went to do the other chores.
- After some hours,she was done and Larry had finished his breakfast also.
- She also ate her food in the kitchen and on moving out of the kitchen,she bumped into Larry.
- "Jeez. You blind?."Larry scoffed.
- He is trying so much to give her the impression that he dislikes her.
- He couldn't believe he went up to that level last night.. just to satisfy her.
- He didn't quite believe that he, Larry,allowed a guy to blew her nose with his sleeve!.
- He didn't like the caring act he put up in front of her and he wants to change that.
- He wants to show her he can be as bad just as he is good.
- He wants to be ruthless towards her.
- He doesn't want what happened the other night to cloud her mind and give her a positive thing about him.
- He want her to think of him as negative.
- He's doing so much,all this to wipe away the little good time from her memory.
- He wants her to think of him as bad, nothing him.
- Think of him as negative.
- Why he wants all that...he knows but didn't quite know.
- "I'm sorry."she quickly apologized.
- He wanted to tell her to go on her knees,but his heart refuses so he just glared at her.
- "I'm sure you know your way to the hospital now,"he started.
- She nodded.
- "Yes."
- "Good,I want you to trek down to the building."he added.
- Annie's eyes widened.
- "What?, impossible?,how did you want me to... I'd rather stay back in the house than coming to the hospital then."she almost yelled.
- Larry's eyes darkened.
- Annie moved back in fright.
- She haven't seen this side of him before.
- "Don't provoke me,kiss stealer, don't!."
- Good!,now, she has gained another title.
- Kiss stealer,not little kiss again.
- She had been given another name.
- "I'm giving you one damn hour to get to the hospital,hmm,got that?."he said.
- The last part of his words made her remembered what happened on the other day.
- When she asked him to call her sister Annie.
- Oh.
- That was damn fun!.
- Her lips surged forward,ready to release a smile but she quickly wave it off. Not now.
- "But, why are you doing this to me. I don't remember offending you in any way,so why!."she yelled out and tears streamed down her face.
- "Really?"he chuckled dryly.
- Annie remembered what she did the other day.
- Oh.
- Payback!.
- "Now,you do know."Larry said and walked out.
- Annie threw some pictures in the air at him in annoyance.
- Where is she even going to take her bath?.
- He hasn't not given her any room yet and from the look of it,he doesn't look like he would do that any moment.
- She decided to bath when she get to the hospital.
- She walked out and towards the gate.
- She met a guy sitting beside it.
- "Good morning."she greeted.
- "Yes,where are you going?."he asked.
- "And you?,who are you?."she asked back.
- "Dummy!. I man the gate."he rolled his eyes.
- "Ugh, just let me be and face your friggin job!."she scoffed and grabbed the gate handled and opened it then stomped out.
- She started walking under the harsh sun.
- After an hour and thirty minutes,she got to the hospital.
- She was sweating back to back.
- Her legs feels so wobbled.
- She headed to Larry's office and entered.
- "Go back and knock."he said without looking up at her from the book he's studying
- Annie was left with no choice but to go back out even though she felt so weak and knock.
- First knock..no response.
- Second...,,
- It was at the third time that he responded and when he did,he managed to sound as faint as ever.
- She walked in and breathed out.
- "I..am here."she announced.
- "I ain't blind,neither I'm I dead eared(deaf). You don't need to announce your presence."he said and dropped the book he was going through on the table.
- "I said one hour,but,you spend an accurate one hour and forty minutes,now, little miss, don't you think you really need a punishment?."
- Annie just breathed out.
- All she needs now is a very chilled water.
- Gosh,she made a mistake by coming to this prick here first.
- She should have go for water instead.
- He picked up some money on his desk and stretched it out at her.
- "Here,get me two cups of chocolate hot coffee down street with this. I will give you twenty minutes,no, that's too much, fifteen, you have fifteen minutes."he said.
- Annie scoffed loudly.
- She can't believe this?.
- He's asking her to go all the way downstreet again???.
- "Here!."he frowned.
- She moved towards him and as she made to collect the money from him,he suddenly took his hand away.
- "What's that?. You smell awful!. Go take a bath first before grabbing my coffee for me. Geez!,ew!"
- He covered his nose with his two fingers.
- Annie glared hard at him before turning to walk away.
- Her legs felt so sore and all her strength had left her.
- She moved towards the door and as she reached towards the doorknob,she collapsed.
- **
- So,he has no other option than to entertain the action for a while.
- He found himself drooling over her again and he didn't know when he slept off also.
- ****
- Mr Sean went entered the room with a bow.
- "Sir. They moved abroad."he said.
- The unknown man scoffed.
- "Did you confirm it?."he asked.
- "Yes."Mr Sean replied.
- "Are you sure he won't make any absurd move?,can we trust him?."the second man asked.
- "Certainly!. He seems to be living a quite life over there. I can assure you,sir, that there will be no problem."he stated.
- "Your words better be it."
- ***
- #the next morning.
- Annie's eyes fluttered opened and she stirred up.
- Oh,this is so comforting.
- She turned around but suddenly sat up and found Larry beside her and worst part,she has been sleeping on his legs.
- And she even called it comfortable!.
- His head was on the couch headrest and his mouth was slightly opened.
- Those small pink lips looks pinker this morning.
- Annie smiled and moved to him.
- She gently and carefully touched his lips and she blushed.
- She felt like kissing it!.
- She moved her mouth towards his and his eyes suddenly opened.
- She frozed immediately.
- What?.
- He caught her!.
