Tessa's P.O.V:
I squint my eyes at the sun's brightness and cover my face with the duvet but it's still too bright. Sighing, I get out of bed and walk over to the windows and pull the curtins together, making the room dark.
My head is killing me. I yawn and run my fingers through my hair is I walk into the ensuit. Once i'm done, I walk back into the bedroom and climb into bed. I turn on my right and gasp when I see Marshall next to me, shirtless
'This feels wrong..'
'...It feels right to me.'
We...No way! Did I kiss Marshall last night? I swallow a huge lump in my throat and stay still as I watch Marshall turn towards me in his sleep. He throws his arm around my waist and pulls me close against him.
I keep my palms pressed against his chest as I keep my eyes fixed on his face. He looks so peaceful and stress free when he's sleeping.
I don't know why freaking out. It's what I wanted, I know that but i'm scared. What if it gets serious? It can't get serious with Marshall when I just got divorced!
It's a bit of fun, Tessa! Quit thinking about it too much!
I wonder if he remembers about last night. I hope he does and I hope he doesn't regret getting close to me because all I want is to feel his lips against mine again, I just love this feeling.
Marshall P.O.V:
I slowly open my eyes and close them again before they flutter open again when I realise who's sleeping next to me. I look down at one of her hands that are pressed against my chest.
How the hell did we end up here. I mean, we were at Jeff's party having fun and th- Fuck Marshall! Not again. She's gonna regret fucking getting close to me.
The curtins were closed and it was dark in here so I had no idea what time it is. I slowly move my arm away from her waist and start to untangle my legs from hers.
"Mmm..." Tessa moans and let's out a small sigh. Her eyes slowly open and she blinks a few times before she rubs her face and moves her legs away from mine and turn onto her back. "You're awake." She states as she yawns.
Wait, she doesn't mind that we're in the same bed? Last time we slept together she basically fucking jumped ten feet away from me and now she doesn't mind? Does the mean she remembers or does that mean she doesn't regret getting close to me?
"Yeah. I just woke up." I mumble. Tessa lets out a sigh as she pulls the duvet up to her chin and closes her eyes before she turn to lay on her side.
"Did you forget about last night?" She mumbles as she looks up at me, O shake my head in response. "Good. That means we won't have to talk about it or ask questions." She says.
"Wait, you ain't mad about last night?" I ask in confusion.
"I'm over it, Marshall." She smiles lightly.
"Over what?" I ask.
"Never mind." She mumbles and groans as she rubs her head.
"Your head hurting again?" I ask.
"Mhmm." She nods. "God I hate hangovers." She mumbles.
"Lay down for a few minutes." I tell her and pull the blanket over us. She places her hand under her face and her gaze falls upon mine.
"Does your head not hurt after all the drinking?" She asks quietly.
"I'm gonna take a pill." I mumble. She nods slowly and lets out a sigh.
"You said you wanted to have a little fun with the contract?" She questions after a little pause.
"That was a long time ago." I say after a while.
"So you don't wanna kiss me anymore?" She whispers as her eyes drop down on my lips.
"I wanns do more than jus kiss. But I don't mind." I mumble.
"Good." She whispers and smiles before she leans foward to place her lips on mine. I cup her face after a few seconds and deepen the kiss by sliding my tongue in her mouth.
"How can someone be this sexy." I mumble against her lips.
Tessa moves back and lets out a small laugh before she places her lips on mine again. I wrap my arms around her as her arms go around my neck.
She moans against my lips as I pull her ontop of me. She pulls back and sits up as she sighs and pushes her hair back. She looks nervous as she looks at me and bites her bottom lip.
"You regretting it already?" I ask in confusion.
"No. I'm scared I will." She says quietly. "I'm scared that i'm gonna fuck up our contract." She explains.
I squeeze my eyes shut and rub my hands over my face as I remember the rules on the contract. No sexual relationship.
"It's all just fun." I state. "We're just having fun, that's all. It's not like a real relationship. Plus our managers won't have to find out. So fuck the contract. This stays between us." I shrug as I sit up and lean against the headboard with Tessa still on my lap. She thinks for a moment before a small smile spreads across her face.
"Guess your right. If Leroy doesn't listen to me then I won't listen to him." She mumbles. I place my hand on her neck and pull her towards me. She laughs softly before she wraps her arms around me and kisses me. The door opens quickly making and Tessa jumps off me.
"Ayo, slim-" Dre says walking in. He stops in his tracks and starts to walk back. "Whoa. I didn't..My bad." Dre says and closes the door.
I forgot about him, we had a few people to meet today so I told Dre to meet me at my hotel room.
"When did he get here?" I mumble.
Tessa turns bright red and climbs off me. She gets off the bed and picks up her clothes from her suitcase and other belongings before she starts to walk towards the ensuit.
"Are you and Dre going to spend the day together?" She shouts from the ensuit.
"Yeah. Wanna come along?" I shout back.
"Nope. I don't feel so good after all those drinks. I'll stay here with Nathan." She tells me as she walks out. I was about to tell her to take a pill to help the pain but I keep forgetting about her being sober.
I hear Tessa mumbles something about how ugly her make up looks as she walks over to her bag and takes out a small bag. She walks towards the mirror and starts on her make up.
"You look hot in my shirt by the way." I say as I climb out of bed, making her blush. Man, she's so fucking hot.
***
"I don't feel so good." I say into the phone. I hear Leroy sigh from the other end of the phone before he speaks.
"Do you want me to move the meeting to 4pm?" He asks, making me roll my eyes.
"I want you to move it to tomorrow's date." I say.
"I'll see what I can do." Leroy says. "How was the party las-" He starts before I cut him off.
"I have to go Leroy." I say quickly. "Bye." I add and throw my phone in my lap.
"Your manager really sucks." Nathan says.
"Tell me about it." I mumble. "So, what did you get up to last night?" I ask.
"Watched a movie." He shrugs. "You and Marshall..." Nathan says awkwardly.
"What about us?" I ask.
"What's going on?" He asks.
"I don't know what you're talking about." I shrug.
"You were in the same bed last night." He says.
Crap.
"We came back pretty late and didn't want to wake you up so...We stayed in the same bed." I make up a quick excuse as I stand up and gather the dishes. "It's no big deal." I shrug as I walk towards the kitchen and dump the dishes into the sink.
For the rest of the day Nathan and I spend time together watching movies and ordering room service.
We decide to explore around Chicago when we finish our movie.
***
"What time is it?" I ask as we look up the stars.
We were currently on top of building, enjoying the view. I had to sign a few autographs and take pictures to get up here but the views is worth it. Nathan doesn't reply, making me turn around to face him.
"The cleaner this morning was telling me about this really good pizza place." Nathan says as he looks down at his phone.
"Would you stop thinking about food for one second." I snatch as I take his phone from him and place it in my bag.
"Okay." He laughs and stands next to me.
"I have to go to the the MTV awards in May." I tell him.
"Are you going with Marshall?' He asks.
I go quiet for a few long seconds. Leroy told me that we were both likely to be nominated so I had to go but I wasn't sure about Marshall. It would be our first live appearance together on tv.
"Tessa?" Nathan says. I tut as I take out his ringing phone and decline the call.
"I don't know." I shrug.
"He probably won't end up going anyway." Nathan says. His phone rings in my hand making him look at me. "Can-" He starts but I cut in.
"No. You've been on your phone all frickin' day." I say making him roll his eyes. I decline the call on his phone again when it rings for the third time. "Anyway, what were we talking about?" I ask.
"Mtv awards." He says.
"Oh yeah. So you think Marshall isn't going to go?" I ask.
"I doubt he will." He shrugs.
"Why not?" I ask.
"Well. He doesn't think he's going to win." He tells me.
"You're kidding." I chuckle.
"Nope. I always tell him to go but he always says no unless he has to perform." He says, I decline the call on Nathan's phone again before I speak.
"But he's winning awards all the time. Didn't he just win an Grammy recently?" I ask.
"He did." He shrugs. "But he doesn't think he fits in with those kinda people." He says.
"Those kinda people? What does that mean?" I laugh as I look at the sky.
"You know...The rich kind." He says.
"You're brother is a millonaire." I state.
"Well yeah...But he had nothing when he was a kid-" He starts but I cut in.
"Yeah but-" I start only to cut him off.
"You grew up in a wealthy family, right?" He asks. I let out a small sigh when his phone rings again. I decline the call and look at Nathan.
"Yeah but I don't see how that matters." I shrug.
"You practically grew up with those kinda people who attend these award ceremonies. They like you. But my brother...I don't know, he's a rapper. People get offended with everything he says you know?" Nathan says. "He just doesn't think he fits in with them and I guess I agree." He adds.
I turn away from Nathan and tilt my head up at the sky. I never thought Marshall would be the type to feel insecure and awkward infront of others.
I hate it how Nathan and Marshall think that I had a perfect childhood. I hate how they think my life is perfect just like everyone else does. Money isn't everything.
Money didn't show me love. Money didn't brings people together m, it drove them apart and thats what it did to my family. Money ruined my family. They think just because my family have
money my life is perfect?
My life is far from perfect!
"It's getting cold." Nathan says. I clear my throat and stand up straight.
"It's getting dark out too." I state. I look down at Nathan's phone when it rings. I let out a sigh as I look at the caller's ID.
Dick face? Who the hell is dick face?
"Marshall should be back by now." He tells me as I decline dick face's call.
"Yeah and he's probably angry since we didn't tell him about going out." I sigh. "Let's get going." I add.
"He's going to be beyond pissed." Nathan tells me.
"Why?" I ask. "We just went out to explore." I shrug as we walk down the stairs.
"He's called like over ten times and you've been declining his call." He says.
"What?" I stop in my tracks.
"Dick face. That's Marshall." He explains as he walks down the stairs. "You're dead meat." He laughs as he looks back at me.
***
"Nathan." I sigh nervously as we step into the lift. Nathan presses his finger down on the button as he lets out another laugh.
"My brother is going to kill you." He says making me slap his arm.
"You were the one that wanted to explore." I say.
"Why are you scared anyway?" He asks with an amused look on his face.
"Have you met you're brother when he's angry?" I ask.
"Okay." He laughs as we step out of the lift. "I'll take the blame this time." He says.
"Thank you so so much." I smile as I place my arm around his shoulder.
Nathan grins as he shakes his head. I keep my arm wrapped around his shoulder as I unlock the door to our hotel room.
I push he door open slowly and walk in with Nathan right next to me. We hear something moving as I close the door behind us. A very angry looking Marshall appears infront of us.
He clenches his jaw as he digs his hands into the pocket of his sweats. His face is red with anger. I open my mouth to speak but close it when no words come out.
"I can explain." Nathan says quickly. I slowly remove my arm from around Nathan and awkwardly cross my arms across my chest.
"Go on then." Marshall says.
"It was all Tessa's idea." Nathan says.
My mouth hangs open slightly as Nathan walks away from me and past Marshall to his room. Marshall looks away from Nathan and locks his eyes onto me and waits for me to explain.
"Asshole." I mumble as I take off my jacket and get ready to face Marshall.
