Elijah

Chapter Two

It was early Sunday morning when he stormed into my room I was still asleep with my leg out from under my silk sheets when my door burst open. 

“What the f**k who gave you the right to give out my number?!” he was furious, he was shirtless

Oh my God he has tattoos. 

I shook the thought out of my head. 

“What the hell are talking about?” I questioned looking at him dumbfounded to what he was talking about

“You gave my number to a group of girls”

“They asked for it and I had it so I thought why not help them out one of them might be your soul mate” I said and he was inches from my face now. 

“You messed with the wrong guy” he spoke breath hot on top of my lips he stood straight and walked out of my room. I bit my lip before falling back on my bed smiling like a stupid child.

I was still in bed on i********: there was no one at the house except for me and Elijah the front door opened and seconds later footsteps were heard walking down the hall and a girls giggling followed I shook my head knowing exactly what was going to happen. I quickly got dressed before anything serious started to happen and walked outside and waited for my uber that I ordered on Elijah’s card to arrive.

I sat at the starbucks drinking my white hot chocolate while scrolling through insta when I saw the girl from last night on my feed in photo with Elijah and he was just in his underwear and she was biting his lip and the post alone got a thousand likes.

‘Can’t even go on social media without seeing his dumbass face’ I mumbled to myself before getting up walking across the street into the Victoria’s Secret shop. This was my addiction, underwear I love feeling pretty even if it’s just on the inside and no one can see it, it makes me happy especially the bras 

I found a beautiful black and white two piece and took it immediately there were straps that came around my neck and it will be my very first bra like that I smiled looking around the shop if I could find more I found a cute white bra that fitted like a crop top I smiled and went straight to checkout. 

“That will be four fifty mam” she smiled and I handed her a platinum card it was James’s but he gave it to me to spend. 

“Spend wisely not on junk” I remembered him say when he first handed it to me, but I need bras, bras are not junk so I smiled after putting in the pin and signing the slip. 

When I exited the shop the wind was blowing instead of calling an uber I asked the door boy to hail me a cab and he did lucky for me the streets weren’t busy so I got home within an hour, the house was quiet when I entered I made my way up the stairs with my Victoria's Secret bag and as I got to the top of the stairs he exited his room.

“Where have you been?” he questioned hair still a mess probably from the girl that was in his room earlier.

“Not f*****g strangers that's for sure” I simply said giving him a fake smile before opening my door and entering it. He didn’t know I was there hearing them?

Mum and James decided that they were going to a resort for a while they will apparently let us know when they will be returning and since we still had five weeks of summer left they could take their time but couldn’t they take me with instead of leaving me with the devil himself.

I took out my phone from under my pillow and called my best friend Emily she always knew what was going on in my life so immediately when she answered the phone she bombarded me with questions

“How is life with the step family?”

“James is okay he has a son though our age that is the devil himself”

“Is he sexy?”

“He was”

“What do you mean?”

“He almost saw me naked”

“Oh my gosh but you still didn’t answer my question” she spoke over the loudspeaker of my phone

“What do you want me to say Em that he’s f*****g gorgeous in every way possible from the way his black hair fell on his head to the way his thick voice came out of his throat like a roar because he is so goddamn sexy” I spoke and it was like a weight from my shoulders. 

“So you like him”

“No”

That was a lie

“Is he my type, can I come over to see for myself?”

“He just had a girl over but yeah sure why not you can come and try your luck”

I walked into the kitchen and he stood there back facing me every muscle in his back showing perfectly he was eighteen just like me but he looked somewhere in his twenties I bit my lip and he turned around. 

“What do you want for dinner?” I spoke acting like I never stared at him

“What does the devil himself eat” I gasped oh my word

“You eavesdropped on my phone call”

“Yep, and whose going to come try their luck?”

“How dare you, you don’t have the right to listen to my conversations”

“I wasn’t intentionally listening to it you two spoke so loud” I blushed we always spoke extremely loud on loudspeaker I completely forgot 

“My friend Emily is coming over for dinner anything you have in mind”

I was hoping he'd say he wasn't hungry or that he was going out to eat. 

“Whatever you want to make jen” he spoke before leaving the room.

When the chicken curry and rice was placed on the table there was a knock on the door Elijah walked down the stairs drying his hair, he took a shower the door opened and I heard Emily’s voice both of them walked into the kitchen neither one of them speaking and that's when I noticed he was only in his boxers. I bit my lip and we sat down eating.
