Chapter 20 | Delusional Doubts , atleast I hope! |
Atticus feels delusional at times, when I walked into this house I was expecting something different, not the gentlemen to me .
"oh come on , enlighten this lone wrecks life " she tries to sound pity which only made me roll my eyes and laugh out loud
"hmm how about you confess my brother how you feel so that you won't continue to be a lone wreck " I exactly knew her button
"ugh you're boring and mean, but don't think I'm letting you go off this topic . I'm pretty sure you jumped on his bones by now ?"
"no laura , I haven't jumped bones on anyone yet , you require s*x . I'm sure my brother will do more than just help with that area " I said biting my inner cheek from laughing
" since when are you such a bitch " she scoffs
"But you still love me baby "
we continue to talk for another hour or so bitching about some social life , talking about doing a night over some time, blah blah .. you don't need a topic to talk to your best friend
Trevor messages pop on my notification , I swipe to unlock my phone to check the message
Trevor :" Hey you coming today sav?"
Me :"yes gimme 20 minutes " I reply back
Trevor : "okay get me a latte , if you can . Love you :) "
Me : "see you soon , love you "
I jump out of the sofa as I run back to my guest room to change into something comfortable for dancing .
I and Trevor were able to finish the chores we started , I wasn't me last week hence it took this long to complete. But I was glad it took longer since it helped us improve our dance moves and learn from the mistakes ,
" This was amazing savvvv , y-you remember I got that o-one b-big move i wanted to show you " Trevor's words stutter with the heavy breathing from the dance
"hmm " I shake my head as I sip my water. I have been refreshing my notification again and again just having a little hope that Atticus might text me , I mean I know I'm expecting too much but that didn't stop my head from trying to think .
I feel like a teenager now who is hoping her crush would reply to her hi . I roll my eyes and let out a breath
Atticus you need to fuck out of my mind now , even while dancing I felt as if he was watching me and started doing the sexy dance with me which only made me hot, and wanted to go home early . Trevor is clueless that I'm having fantasying dirty thoughts over his best friend who I was supposed to hate .
"Sav I just thought, if we could land the move without a scratch, I feel like it would be a hit for us " Trevor hype talks about trying some new moves made me stop dreaming.
I look at the clock that's ticking on the wall , it is just 5pm and I'm pretty sure Atticus is just working, working , working and working . That guy becomes a serious working animal once he steps into the working mode .
The thought of me over his table looking at me hungrily as he starts to devour me, it made me jump heaven .
I close my eyes count 10 -1 trying to control the desires, My phone beeps with a notification.
My face lifts with a grin, " a minute " I say to Trevor who looks at me amusing because I usually put my phone on airplane mode and I made an exception for Atticus today .
Yeah sounds crazy to my ears with how I'm turning things around for him .
My heart fills when I find out the message is from Atticus , I quickly open it to find a picture of him. He looks tired out with his tie loosened as he sits on his chair, the glass mirror behind him looks like a blessing to watch every night after the night is out.
He tried to make a puppy face but then my heart melted to see him holding the empty cookie box in hand, I looked down at the message following the picture.
I laugh out when I read it
Atticus : My co-workers ate your cookies like hungry wolves , and i got none
I bite back my cheeks inside, not letting my smile grow bigger, I text back.
Me : That's sad :(
Placing the phone near my heart to stop it feeling excited over his puppy face. I feel like I'm making a big mistake but you know me I like fun , new thrilling , exciting feelings so I'm going to test it.
I click the airplane mode dropping it into my bag to stop myself from getting more distracted and focus on me now.
" What was that ?" Trevor eyes me suspiciously
"oh nothing, just a friend sent some meme post, uk " I cover the truth because i know what Trevor would say if i tell him the truth .
He just shakes his head as if he is trying to believe it.
Hours pass with burning thighs and arms from dancing. Trevor suggests he will drop me home but I felt taking the train would give me little rest.
Throughout the ride home, all I could think about was Atticus . Don't ask, I know I feel fucked up for thinking about him a lot more than I thought I would .
The more I wish away the more I want it closer to me , I don't know why I think we need a perfect moment to have him inside me but I just want to be sure , it sounds insane but I can't wait for him to cry out for me . Smirking that I will do it to him .
I walk in to find all lights are switched off taking me back to the week we stopped talking to each other like the connection, tension we felt for each other was a lie .
I walk to the kitchen as i hit the night lap feeling tired jus want to hit the bed , As i gulp down cold water my eyes find a note resting on top of the empty cookie box i gave Atticus this morning.
Biting my lip i read the note
' Dear aroma
god if i only knew i would be making a mistake in giving my co-worker a cookie to taste and he would end up convincing me to let everyone have a taste of your world class cookies .
I would have asked you to give me another box , idk somehow i didn't feel selfish to keep your cookies just for me but anyway you got a big fanbase at my office .
with that i just got one cookie hoping you would give me a dozen tomorrow just for me ;) . I'm tired out today with the back-to-back meeting to launch a product so I will be fast asleep when you're back home . so good night
well not exactly it would be nice of you to sleep next to me again tonight , no pressure ...just thought it would be nice
you're hot jerk
Atticus with grey eyes :))) '
god lord I haven't got such a sweet letter before , my heart melted that he took time to write me a letter though he could have sent me a text or would have just slept .
Folding the letter carefully I place it in my bag with a heartfelt emotional smile playing around my lips. feeling silly romantic about it
If he is going to act around all sweet boy, how will I ever be able to execute my plan? Right now I'm least bothered about anything other than cuddling him to sleep. I walked into his room to find him heavily sound asleep with a naked chest and left in his boxers . He shivers to the cold so the first thing I do is cover him with the blanket I find laying by my side .
Not stopping myself from placing a soft kiss on his forehead , I caught myself staring at his innocent face . I think any girl would take this view .
Slipping myself into my nightwear , I push the pillow which he placed on his side for me . I don't want this block between us . Draping my arms around him as I fall into a deep quiet sleep knowing my heart is on the edge of falling for him.
******
rule number 1: you are falling for him if he writes you a cute letter , let's hope savannah hasn't fallen for this charming hot stuff
