The Distance Between Us

Chapter Fourteen

Ayla's Pov

New York! I have always wanted to see the city. I still haven't responded back to Keiran yet and he was sitting there staring at me. "Ms. Sanchez is there a problem with that?" I replied, "No Mr. Martinez that is not a problem. I do have a question though. Why are we returning on Sunday why not Saturday, is the meeting going to go through Saturday?" That was the only thing I had a question about. Companies usually are Monday through Friday. "We are returning on Sunday because Saturday I need to go inspect the construction of a new factory that I am building." I forgot about the new construction. The other assistant had told me that I will be in charge of it also. I need to get organized with everything I need to do. "Okay I will start preparing for our departure Thursday. Is there anything specific you need that I need to prepare besides the hotel and driver."

Keiran stood up from his chair and walked over to his desk. I saw him grab a paper and he came back to the table. He stood behind me and leaned forward with both his arms caging me in. He brought the paper in front of me and his mouth next to my ear. He whispered in my ear. "Here's a list of what I'll need done and for the specific thing I need is just...you." As Keiran said me, he kissed my neck underneath my ear that it sent chills through my whole body. My body immediately was hot and my woman parts were soaked. Keiran immediately moved away and I turned my head to face him. He was looking at me with a smirk, "I will see you tomorrow Ms. Sanchez. Have a goodnight." He finished his words with a wink and turned towards the door and walked out. What is wrong with this arrogant flirt. Is Keiran just messing with my head. One minute he is upset with me the next he's acting like a dam flirt. I will not let you get in my head Keiran Martinez.

I stood up from my chair and walked out of Keiran's office, then into mine, I retrieved all my things so I could head home. As I grabbed my things I saw there was another paper that needed Keiran's signature. I'm going to have to stop by his office to see if he's in there so he can sign this paperwork. As I was walking out of my office and closing the door to lock it. I looked towards Keiran's office and I saw him walking back to his office after he had just walked out after kissing my neck. I don't really want to see him right now. My thoughts are everywhere. I looked away as I was locking my door and I heard a woman call out for Keiran. "Mr. Martinez!" I looked again towards Keiran. This blonde haired woman in a tight small red dress with red heels walked up to him. "Can we talk. You never replied back to my message. It's been weeks since I sent it to you." Keiran turned around to see who was talking to him. He gave me a quick glance and then looked at the woman. "Who are you again?" The woman took a few steps towards him. "I'm Jennifer. Remember from accounting." She tried to wrap her arms around his neck but he grabbed her arms and put them back down. "No I don't remember and I would appreciate it if you wouldn't touch me or try to embrace me without my consent." Jennifer had stepped back a bit. This Jennifer girl is trying too hard to hit on Keiran or to sleep with him. I suddenly felt this jealousy overcome me, I didn't like seeing her trying to put her arms around Keiran.

I suddenly started walking over to them when I approached them. Jennifer said, "Oh come on Mr. Martinez let me just show you a good time. I will treat you to something amazing. What do you say?" This anger is building up inside me I wanted to grab this girl by the hair and drag her away from Keiran but I can't. So instead I interrupted her by saying to Keiran, "Mr. Martinez I have this important document that you need to sign before I can send off the proposals." Jennifer stepped back and gave me a disgusted look but I don't care. Keiran looked my way and said, "Okay Ms. Sanchez let's go into my office and get this signed. Jennifer you need to go now. I will have a talk with you later about this inappropriate behavior." Jennifer looked angry and upset. Keiran opened his office door and with a hand gesture he told me to go in. I stepped forward and went into his office. I looked back and I saw Keiran whispering something to Jennifer. The smile that came on her face made me feel jealous. What was he telling her? Keiran then followed behind closing the door. I headed to the table and I turned towards him. Keiran came up to me. "Mr. Martinez here is the paper you need to sign." I handed him the document kind of roughly due to my anger at that Jennifer girl. He grabbed my hand with both his hands and he was staring into my eyes with a curious look. He suddenly let go of my hand and grabbed the document. He went around me to go to the table to sign the document. Keiran is seriously giving me whiplash from the way he acts towards me. One minute he is flirting and sweet towards me then the next he is cold. "Here you go Ms. Sanchez. Now go ahead and get home. I'll see you tomorrow." Keiran said as he headed to the door and opened it. As I walked towards the door I stopped by him and said, "Bye Mr. Martinez." I headed out the door feeling upset.

I suddenly heard a knock on the door. I turned back towards Keiran's office and it was Jennifer. Keiran opened the door and invited her in. Keiran saw me staring his way and he just smirked. He went inside and closed the door. Being upset would be an understatement, I am fuming with anger and jealousy. I took off and once I reached the receptionist desk. I handed the malina envelope to Aspen without a word and left for the elevator. In the elevator I was trying to hold back my tears. Why am I wanting to cry? I shouldn't be this emotional, Keiran isn't my problem. We aren't together but why do I feel this way. My emotions are all over the place. As I reached my car I had a sudden urge to look up towards the company and when I did, there he was, Keiran leaning on the rail of his balcony. He was staring at me he did not have his suit jacket on. Of course! He slept with Jennifer that is why he doesn't have his suit jacket anymore. What an arrogant womanizer! I hurried up into my car and started it. I need to get home so I can just relax.

As I was about to leave someone knocked on my window of the car I looked and it was Seth. I opened the car door and got out. He grabbed me into an embrace, "Hey wifey I wanted to surprise you." as Seth was hugging me I looked back up towards Keiran's balcony and he was still there staring at Seth and I. I hate that I let my feelings and thoughts get to me. I suddenly pulled away from Seth a little bit and I kissed him hard. I wanted to make Keiran mad and jealous, just like I had been with that Jennifer girl. When we pulled apart I looked and I saw Keiran wasn't there anymore. "Wow babe someone missed me." Seth said to me. "Of course it's been a long first day. I'm ready to go home and cuddle up next to you." Seth leaned in and gave me a kiss on my forehead, "Let's go home. I will meet you there." I went back in my car once Seth went in his. I sat there scolding myself. Why the f*** did I do that, I just used my sweet Seth to make another man jealous! What's wrong with me?
