Billionaire Obsession

The deadline for submission was this weekend. Lily Patel sighed as she dropped her paint brushes back into the beige container she always stored them in. For the past three hours she has been struggling to focus on her painting to no avail. She couldn't stop thinking about Michael. Part of her hated him and the other part admired his looks. To make matters worse, she had a dream last night where she was being seduced and f****d by a hulk of a man. She was not the type to have s*x in her dreams so even in her dream, she seemed surprised especially when the man knew all that turned her on. He knew the places to suck and the places to nibble. She had come three times; not once or twice but thrice. The weird part was that the face of the man in the dream was not the face of Michael, the handsome devil that had nearly traumatized her last night. Yesterday, she had bumped into him. Michael that looked like he was carved out of the finest marble and chiseled by a sculptor. Michael that stood at six feet two. Michael that almost had his arm muscles ripping his clean, white starched shirt. Michael that was so rude to her even when she apologized after she mistakenly poured her drink on him. She still remembers how it happened. Her best friend Gina had invited her to an art gallery opening saying it would be good for her since she was a struggling artist. “You are going to make connections that will help you”, Gina said. “You always talk about connections. Hard work pays off too", Lily retorted “Yes, hard work is good but most of these top artists are on top because of their connections”, Gina said “So you think connections matter more?”, Lily asked as she rolled her eyes at her best friend. “Yes, they do. Also you’re beautiful, stunning even, so you are going to have better luck with connections” Gina emphasized gesturing with her hands in a circle “Are you trying to pimp me out?”, Lily asked jokingly “Yes, if it means we get to not worry about rent”, Gina said “do you even have tickets to this grandiose event?”, Lily asked sarcastically “Yh, my boyfriend’s dad got me two. One for you , one for me” “Your boyfriend’s dad again? Are you dating your boyfriend or his dad? Last time, you told me he took you shopping” “Lily! What are you insinuating? He just likes me as his son’s girlfriend, nothing more”, Gina said with an amused glint in her eyes “Okay I believe you, Remember we don’t hide anything from each other, okay?” “Yes babe, we don’t. Now are you coming with me or not?” “Okay but I have nothing to wear”, Lily said as she finally agreed “Don’t worry, I got you” Gina said as she winked at her.
