second chance

DICE

A few days passed from the time Zack came to my place. When I woke up I found Zack still sleeping on the bed . I was about to let him continue sleeping, but I was scared he was going to be late for work.
'' Zack,'' I called his name while tapping his back.
'' Hmm,'' he answered, his eyes still closed.
'' Wakeup, you will be late for work,'' I said still tapping him.
'' Its my day off,'' he said finally opening His eyes to look at me.
'' When did CEOs ever have days off?'' I asked.
'' Blake will fill in for me,'' he said.
'' oh...OK you can go back to sleep,'' I said.
'' How do you expect me to go back up to sleep after waking me up?'' He asked.
'' It's not my fault you didn't tell me about not going to work,'' I said.
'' Have you forgotten something?'' He asked.
''I don't think so...wait, my present.'' I answered thinking for a moment before remembering.
'' mhmm,'' he said looking at me with a smile.
'' well where is it, you told me you would give it tom me. Who knew Zack Sullivan couldn't keep his promises .'' I said.
'' I was waiting for you to remember,'' he said trying to clarify himself.
'' Yeah right, just give it to me .'' I said rolling my eyes and turning away from him.

I didn't believe that he would wait until I remembered. Maybe he just didn't have the money.

Ha

What am I saying, that is impossible. Zack Sullivan cannot go broke. His one of the richest people in the city, no country, maybe even the world.
'' I'm sorry, your present is in that drawer over there,'' he pointed at a drawer that was not far away from me.

I got off the bed to check what was in it. When I opened it the only thing I found was a mirror.
'' Hey there is nothing here but a mirror is this supposed to be my...'' Before I could finish my sentence I felt something cold on my neck. In the mirror I saw a green Jade necklace around my neck. It had a simple but beautiful design.
''Wow!'' I exclaimed.
'' Do you like it?'' Zack asked.
''I love it,'' I said still looking at the jade necklace.

Sometime passed but Zack didn't say anything. When u looked at him he seemed upset.
''What's wrong?'' I asked still wondering what could make him upset.
'' You don't like me but you love that thing that is around your neck,'' he said.

Was this person for real. Who knew CEOs would have such moods especially someone like Zack.
'' Zack,'' I called out to him.
'' mmm'' he answered.
'' I ...I like you too,'' I felt my face burning. He looked happy and surprised that I actually confessed to him.
''You don't love me?'' He asked.
'' Don't push it. That's  as much as I can say right now,''
'' I love you,'' he said before turning me around to turn to him .

He then kissed me and for the first time I responded to his kiss.
'' I already knew you liked me,'' he said.
''How?'' I asked.
'' You got jealous when that little girl called me handsome,''
'' It wasn't that its just that she annoyed me ,'' I said lying. '' Wait a minute have you thinking about that girl? Is that why you waited until now to give me my...pres,'' before I could finish he king seed me again.
'' never,'' he answered.

Just then my phone rang. I pushed Zack away from me and grabbed my phone to answer it. I looked at Zack who looked annoyed but didn't really care at the moment.
'' hello,''
'' Hi Iris long time,''
'' Is this when you are thinking of calling me. You have to busy lately that you haven't been picking up my calls.''
'' I'm sorry let me make it up to you . why don't we have dinner tonight.'' Before I could even answer Zack got my phone.
'' That won't be possible because iris and I already have plans,'' he said before cutting the phone.

'' What was that for?'' I asked.
'' I wanted to ask you if you wanted to go with me to a small celebration,''
'' sure but can Tina come too,''
'' sure,''
'' OK then you go make breakfast I will be done in a moment,'' Zack nodded his head and went to the bathroom to freshen up before going to the kitchen.
