It's been two days and I pretty much ignored Ashton these past two days. I don't want to face him nor give him the satisfaction that he affects me.

I told the whole thing happened to Ami and she was like "I'm freaking gonna shove a cactus up his ass," which made me burst out in laughter. She always lightens up my mood.

I made sure every day that I make his coffee and set it on his table before he arrived at the office so I couldn't face him. I don't even ask his permission before leaving for home every day.

But I think luck's not on my side today. Because I was late to office as I overslept this morning. This means I have to face Mr. Rude, arrogant, jerk aka my boss.

"Hey, you forgot to mention he's devilishly hot and handsome".

You are not at all helping!!

"I never intend to help you stupid".

I went to the coffee machine, made him coffee, went to his office, and knocked.

"Come in," He answered after the second knock. I sighed softly, opened the door, and went inside.

"Scarlet, you are late than usual" he said with a goofy smile on his face.

His smile is WOW. He is wearing a grey tux and is so handsome as usual.

"But still he is the same arrogant jerk, don't forget that".

For the first time in my life, I agree with you.

But he seems cheerful this morning.....Let's see how long that lasts.

I closed the door, walked closer to his desk, and kept the coffee on his table.

"Please sit".

Please? He never says please.

"I prefer standing," I said a bit harsh than I want it to be.

"Ok then," he said his smile dropping.

Before I could think Ashton jumped off his seat and approached me.

"I am sorry Scarlett. I really am. I shouldn't have behaved like that. I know I was very rude and behaved like an ass. I really am very sorry for what I did that day," he said.

All the anger that build up in me against him had flew away with his apology. Tears started to form in my eyes but I shouldn't let them fall in front of him.

"Ashton you are nothing but mean to me that day. I didn't do anything wrong. You didn't even let me explain. You insulted and accused me falsely," I said standing firm.

Silence.

"I thought of resigning...."

"Please don't go Scarlett" he interrupted without letting me complete my sentence.

"No Ashton I'm not resigning because I didn't do anything wrong and I don't want to let go of my job for a reason like that. But you can't go around shouting at people just because you are paying them a salary. Everyone has feelings, Ashton, they are not robots, " I said practically yelling at him.

He's so close to me, that I could feel his warm breath caress my face. His eyes lingered on my lips.

What's happening to me?

My tongue subconsciously ran across my bottom lip. He groaned and leaned down with his soft gentle lips and placed a sensual kiss on mine. I could feel butterflies in my tummy as he wrapped his arms around my waist possessively and pulled me closer to him. Sparks flew as a connection was created between us. He is trying to part my lips with his tongue but I'm too shocked by his move.

MY FIRST KISS.😍😍

He gripped my butt tightly and gave it a squeeze making me gasp. He took the chance and slipped his tongue into my mouth. I moaned softly as our tongues danced together. He is a total pro. He dominated the kiss and kissed me very passionately. I didn't know that a kiss could feel this damn good. My insides are burning with desire. I have never felt like this before. It's a new feeling that I began to enjoy. We slowly pulled away minutes later catching our breaths.

"I've been wanting to do this for a while now" he smirked making me blush hugely and turning my cheeks bright red. I quickly covered my face with my hands. He chuckled at my situation.

"My cute little tomato," he said moving my hands away from my face and caressing my face which rose goose bumps all over my skin.

What is he doing to me? I'm melting like butter under his touch. He hugged me tightly as if he never want to let go off me. He hid his face in the crook of my neck inhaling my scent.

We stood there for what felt like a lifetime. My breathing became very heavy as he hugged me even more tight if it's even possible.

"Ashton..?!?"

"Hmm..."

"Can I ask you something?" I said.

"What's that baby?" he said still hugging me.

OMG...he called me baby. Please don't wake me up if it's a dream.

"Why did you kiss me?" I asked nervously. I don't want to be just a fling. I don't want to be his play thing. I know for sure that he had several women in his bed. He is a 28-year-old handsome billionaire. Girls will do anything to be with him. He can get every woman he wanted but why me? I just want to know the reason behind his behavior.

He suddenly loosened his grip and looked at me worriedly.

"Do you regret kissing me?" he asked disappointment filled in his tone.

"No, no I don't regret it at all. But..." he cut me off by kissing me passionately.

Best way to shut me up.

"I could kiss you all day," he said biting my bottom lip. His eyes filled with desire, lust, and....love?
