"It's hard to wait around for something you know might never happen,but it's even harder to give up when it's everything you want."

Should I go inside or not. This is what I've been thinking for the past ten minutes.
You can do it Liza.Just go inside and talk to him. What if he's not inside or worse,he won't allow me in...
I just can't stand here thinking what if's.
After taking a deep breath,I enter Bently Enterprises.
A blonde woman was sitting at the reception desk.She was really beautiful and that does nothing to my already weak confidence level.
"What can I do for you ,Ma'am.." She asked me sweetly.
"Umm...I'm here to meet Zack Bently."
"Do you've an appointment..?"
"Yes.."I lie hoping she won't catch it...
"Well , let me check.What is your name again?"
"Lisa"Now he'll never allow it.
She makes a call..
"Hello, Good evening Mr.Bently"
Whatever he says in return cause her to visibly flince.
"I understand Mr.Bently...but....yes
I know....she said she have an appointment..her name is Liza."
At this surprise flashes across her face....
"Yes,sir....I'll send her now.....no she hasn't left.....I'll make sure of it sir....good evening agai...."
I can tell he has already hang up on her...Only Zack Bently can do it...How can I fall for a man like him...but I did.
"Ma'am,you can go now.Take the elevator to the 30th floor."
"Thanks."
She smiles in return..
.... ....... ..........
Just go in and be done with it. I take a deep breath and enter his office.
He was standing in front of the large glass window facing the city with his hands shoved in his pocket.
"Zack"I said hesitantly. No response.
"Zack...I.....ummm.." My anxiety was on top floor right now.
"What do you want now?" His voice was flat,business like.
"Zack..I....I want to talk to you."
"There's nothing to talk about. If that's why you're here than leave."
"Zack , why are you doing this? I know you don't want me to leave. Have I done something wrong? Then just tell me,damn it." My patience was reaching to it's limit.
He turns towards me with that cold look I so feared in his eyes. It's like he don't want me here,that hurt me but I'm so not backing out now.
"You've done nothing ,Eliza. Now please leave cause I've more important things to do."
"I'm not leaving until you gave me my answer."
"I don't answer to anyone if I don't want to."
"Well,it doesn't matter amymore if you want or not. You should've thought of this brfore you intervened in my life."
"Just go ,Eliza. Just leave." He seems frustrated.
"Leave! That's what I wanted to do before but you didn't let me."
He grabs his hair out of frustration.
"Why can't you understand? I can't add you in my life."
"Are you ashamed of me,Zack?" My voice was a mere whisper.
His eyes snapped towards mine.
"What!" Shock was written all over his face.
"Are you afraid what people will think if you mix your life with someone like me."
"You think I'm afraid because of people. "He chuckled humorlessly." You think I'm ashamed of you. You don't know the half of it, Eliza."
"Then why?" My voice was thick with emotion." Then why you always walk away. Why you always hurt me,Zack." Tears were flowing down my check.
He slowly walks towards me. He takes my face in his hands slowly weeping my tears away.
"You stupid girl, you think I'm afraid of what other people will think?" His eyes were glistening."I'm afraid but not of people, I'm afraid of you , Eliza."
"What?" Surprise was clear in my voice.
"I'm afraid,I'm scared because you mean more to me than any other person. You're everything I think about, everything I want, everything I need and only you've the power to hurt me. I'm scared cause you're the one I badly want to let in but then I became afraid by thinking what will happen once you leave me."
I can see the agony clear in his eyes like even the thought of not having me in his life is painfull for him.
I wanted to tell him so much but more than anything I wanted to assured him that I won't leave.
So I did what I should've done a long time ago.
I grab his face and crash my lips into his.For a second I thought he wasn't going to kiss me back.
But than he grab my hair and pull me even closer..
A thousands of current shock burst through my body.I parted my lips to give him full access. His tongue was busy in exploring my mouth.
My body was craving him,looks like it was the same for him,cause he tried to bring me even closer.There was no place left between us.
I pull away unwillingly for some much needed breath. He didn't let me go though. He still was holding me close to him tightly.
"I hope you know what this mean?"He whispered to me."
"I know. I will never leave you Zack. I can't and I don't want to."
He pressed his forehead into mine,tracing his finger along my jawline.
"I don't have the power to stay away from you anymore."His eyes let me know that he was telling the truth.
"Then don't."
He smiled at me making his eyes sparkling in happiness.
"Promise me, Zack..that you won't walk away again if the situation got out of your comfort zone. If you don't want to let me in ,it's okey but don't shut me out either , Zack."
"I'm sorry , Eliza. It won't happen again. I thought it will hurt if I stay with you but it hurts even more when I'm not with you."This is the first time I've seen such emotion in his eyes.
"Eliza , I can't be away from you anymore." He takes a deep breath .
"So be ready to be drenched in the Zack bently charm."
Huh!
I through my head back in laughter.
"I'll like that very much,actually."
"Good,cause you don't have any other option left anymore." He replied arrogantly.
"Why do you always have to had the last word in everything." I groan in irritation.
He just laugh at me.
"You're adorable,you know that right?"
"Adorable! Don't you think it's to cheesy."
"I can call you whatever I want to. Now let's get to what we started."
"Huh! What are you talking about?"
"What am I going to do with you, stupid woman."
"I'm not stupid." I huff at him
He runs his hand through his hair in frustration.
"Why I have to fall for the most frustrating woman in the world." He groan loudly.
Wait did he just say....I didn't get to think much cause his lips crashed into mine again , making me forget about everything else...
I surely can get used to this...
