"What do you mean no?".
"I don't want you anymore, I've lost interest, so leave".
This man is insane.
"Why?".
He stood up and started heading out, "I told you I won't chase you, goodbye Red".
I got furious, "Okay listen Ace, or whatever it is they call you, I did not just spend the last 7 hours struggling to come here and see you for you to reject me, God I'm so frustrated, what is it with you men? what is it?
First you stalk me to the point that you find Every single detail about me including finding my brother, you beg me, and you even threaten to kidnap me, and now you're telling me that you don't want me anymore, what the hell?".
He didn't say anything, he just walked away.
I sighed frustrated. It was past 10pm
I was in the middle of nowhere. I didn't know what to do.
Timothy was gonna call me in the morning. I have to raise $6k and I don't know how I'm going to.
I headed to the elevator and got out of the house frustrated and sad.
What a waste.
I walked out of the house and sat outside looking so lost and scared.
I decided to call Timothy.
"Hey how are you?", I asked.
"I'm fine, was just about to sleep, what's up, where you able to get the money? my dorm Master is already talking about putting someone else in my room by morning if we can't come up with the fee".
I swallowed hard, "Don't worry Tim, nobody is chasing you out, I haven't gotten the full money but I've gotten something and I'll definitely get it by the end of the night", I lied
"How?".
I swallowed hard, "I'm getting a loan from my boss"
"What of your boyfriend? he seems pretty rich, he could help".
I scoffed inwards.
"Yeah he's uhm, we broke up", I lied again.
"Oh Damn, and I thought you guys were -"
"Tim let's not talk about that okay? I just wanted to check in on you, first thing tomorrow morning I'll send the money okay? you have nothing to worry about ", I said in a shaking voice. I didn't want him to go to be crying or sad or depressed.
"Thanks Eli", he said and I ended the call.
I sighed, how do I even get home?
Maybe I'll see a bus going my way and I'll lie that I was robbed or something.
It was getting really really late and I wasn't even familiar with this part of town.
I started walking home, after 30 minutes of walking, I noticed someone was walking behind me. I thought it was just some Random person, but every turn I took , he followed.
Then I noticed they increased in numbers. I heart started pounding.
I removed my pen knife from my bag and held in tightly.
Then I stopped walking and turned around. My heart was beating tremendously fast.
"Give us the bag" one of them said.
I tossed it to him.
It was empty of course. They searched it and found nothing.
I had slipped my phone into my panties earlier, so unless they were going to stick their hands there they can't reach it.
"What do you got on you?".
"If I got anything you think I'd be walking alone by this time of the night?", I asked.
I heard a gun click.
So if I die tonight, Timothy is gonna be thrown out of school in the morning, Ace is gonna hear that I died after her rejected me, and at least my past can stop chasing me.
Just right before anything could happen, I saw an incoming car.
It parked directly in front of us.
The car opened and Ace was in there.
I rolled my eyes. I'd rather get killed right now.
They saw Ace and began to withdraw and then ran away.
"What's a pretty lady like you doing on the streets by this time of the night?", he asked sarcastically.
I ignored him and turned around and started going.
"Get in the car Red ", that wasn't a request, it was an order.
I reluctantly agreed and then shut the door.
"I thought you said you were done stalking me?", I asked.
"This entire place you're walking on is my property, I see everything happening here, I'm not stalking you ", he said.
I didn't say anything.
"Where are you going?".
"To a strip club to find someone to sleep with that'll give me $6k to pay for my brothers fees".
To be honest I was joking but I don't think he knew that.
"And you said you're not a w***e ".
"I'm not, but here I am begging you to please help my brother at the cost of my body, something I hate the most, but you don't care. That's the thing about Rich people, they don't give a f**k about you, they're all interested in what they can get from you.
That's all they give a f**k about ".
He was staring at me and smiling, him head on the seat of the car.
"What's funny?".
"You're going to be my fiancee Red, I know you will".
This man is unbelievable.
"Didn't you just fucken reject me?".
"It was fun watching you beg".
"Well now I'm not interested anymore, yes there, I've rejected your own rejection that you rejected me with after I rejected you ", that didn't make any sense.
I giggled again, I looked at him closely.
"You're drunk", I stated.
He shrugged, "A little".
"Oh that's probably why you haven't choked me to death yet".
"I would never do that to you ", he whispered and then held my hand.
Okay this was awkward.
The ride was very very quiet and a couple of minutes later we pulled up in front of my motel.
The driver got out and opened the door for me. But Ace hadn't let me go.
I cleared my throat, "That's for bringing me home alive, uhm, you can let me go now".
He didn't say anything, he just stared at me deeply. I sighed and closed my eyes, about to say something, when I felt his warm lips pressed against mine.
My heart stopped working for a minute, shocked.
I wanted to pull away but my body had a mind of it's own, instead of pulling away I kissed him back.
He stated like mint, Lavenders and Whiskey. His breath was hot and steamy and his lips were soft.
I don't know how long it lasted but when it ended I wished it didn't.
He pulled away and looked at me, his sharp blue eyes looked dreamy.
He smirked.
"Goodnight Red", he said.
I cleared my throat and got out of the car.
And closed the door and walked into my room.
I sat on the bed thinking about what the f**k just happened.
Maybe I was dreaming, maybe I was loosing my mind, I don't know.
But I think I'll be able to process it well in the morning.
I laid in bed reliving the whole situation over and over again until I fell asleep.
I was rudely woken up by my phone blowing up with calls from Timothy.
My heart was beating so fast.
I had failed him.
I hesitated before I picked the call.
"Hey Tim I'm so sorry i-"
"I thought you said you guys broke up?", he asked.
"What?".
"Your boyfriend? he was here minutes ago, he just cleared the fees right now and he said you guys didn't break up, he's so cool Eli you have a marry him".
Hold up, what the f**k.
"Boyfriend??", I asked so fucken confused.
"Ace".
Oh Damn
