Lust Actually

Chapter 20

Dear love...
Why do you keep running away?
You keep on torturing me..
I know you're powerful but too weak on playful stints
You're visible to this world but why were you too invisible to fickled heart?

Gin's POV

Struggling again on what to do after that affair with Ashton, though being with him makes me tremble and weak and wanting more of him. I know this wouldn't do me any good but thinking that it might end up so soon made me crazier. His presence keeps haunting me last night, the kiss, the touch, the sensation he brought to my inner soul. Loving him for such a short time isn't bad after all or is it?

I was about to stand when the elevator widely open with him being serious. Why so? Can't even manage to smile huh? I flinch a little as he grabs my hand and pulls me towards his office. He suddenly pushes me to his desk as he controlled my nape giving me a hard kiss. Oh good, Lord! What a great day to start... I realized he's getting turned on, by the way, his bulk tempting to freed out his zip. I tapped his back and pushed him slowly while gasping for a thick air.

"Missed me?" I bite my lips while making a trace on his biceps behind the thin fabric that he's on. Oh, did i even mentioned how tempting his manly scent is? Very...

"Damn much".. he pouted like a little child wanting for more marshmallows.. And I obliged to give him one more bite..

"Okay, enough haha.." putting my index to his mouth. "By the way, I saw a letter folded on my table, from Janice address to you. Wait, I'll get it"

"Can't it wait?" he said lazily.

"Oh, i'm afraid it can't", i said sheepishly. He then let me go. He was already on his desk as I handed the letter to him.

"I'll just go outside, Clint might come earlier."

"You can wait here. No need to go outside." He said with his so serious glare. Haisst jealous eh?

"Okay, I'll just get you a cup of coffee then".. kibit balikat kong sabi.

"I can have you instead of coffee sweetheart. Come here.", he said tapping his lap. Sinunod ko na lang sya at baka mamaya mag alburuto na naman.

"No. You can deal with me later tonight. But have some cup before you start working", sabay tayo.

"I really love getting you naked here sweetheart", ngisi nya sabayan pa nya ng kindat.. Shucks! Kinilig na buong sistema ko!

"Tseh. Tigil tigilan mo muna yang kamanyakan mo Mr. CEO, someone might overheard you." I heard him laugh so hard as I open the door. Hindi matanggal tanggal ang ngiti sa labi ko.. Oh well, love.

Umupo muna ako saglit sa table ko habang inaantay si Janice. Ba't kaya wala pa yun? What's with the letter?
Nasa ganun akong pag iisip nang may bumati sa harapan ko.

"Hey beautiful.."
"Hey!" simbulat ko. Parang kaibigan lang?
"Hi Clint! Sorry." Ngisi ko..
"Oh, it's fine, my fault for interrupting you", sabay abot ng isang bungkos na bulaklak sakin.

"Wow! You don't have to but anyway, thank you for this". I smiled genuinely at him.. Aw too much adonis for this morning! I grinned too hard that I wanted to pinch myself.
Looking at Clint right now is somewhat confusing, felt like my heart is flipping upside down. He's too good to be true. Pwede bang sya na lang?
Nasa ganun akong pag iisip ng bumukas ang pinto at iluwa nun ang nag aalburutong mukha ni Ashton. Mabilis syang lumapit samin at biglang hinablot ang bulaklak sa braso ko.

"What's with this? I'm not gay for flowers man" he smirked.

"Well, my thoughts getting weird and decided to buy it for you. But since you don't like it, I'm giving it to this pretty lady here"... sabay kindat nya sakin. Hmmm good one Clint but oh well.. I smiled back at him and let out a deep sigh.

"That's too bad for you then, Ms. Montanez not a really fan of flowers too. It can fit here though" ... at biglang tapon sa basurahan..

"What?!" bigla kong natutop yung bibig ko.. Haisst kawawang bulaklak.. sorry gago lang talaga sya.

"Sir, what's on you today? Why I love flowers!" Sabay pulot ng bulaklak sa basurahan tsaka nilagay sa gilid ng table ko malapit sa telepono. Ashton glared at me, I know but I don't care.

"Oh.. What's up man? Getting a bad side of the bed?" he chuckles.. "But anyway, let's get down to business." Biglang seryoso ni Clint.

I gave Clint an apologetic smile and mouthing "Thank you", and he just nods while Ashton walks out. I heaved a sigh.

Clint followed Ashton to his office and ako naman tarantang napasunod sa kanilang dalawa papasok sa kwarto ni Ashton pero bigla kong naisip na magtimpla ng kape para sa kanila.

"And where do you think you're going Ms. Montanez? " nabigla ako sa tanong ni Ashton.

"Errr -- sa pantry? I'm getting you both a cup of coffee Sir" damn.. and why am i stuttering?

"No need. Just get your laptop ready for the revisions of contract", he said with a serious tone.

Hmp. Ang suplado! "Yes. Sir."

Dali dali akong lumabas para kunin ang laptop ko. Where the hell is Janice?! I'm not even prepared for this job! I'm really getting a bad hype for this one. Ma-text nga sya, hindi sya sumasagot sa mga tawag ko.

To Janice: Hi, Jan.. Been calling you.. Where are you? Need you here, please.

Saktong na i send ko yung text nang biglang tumunog yung linya ko.

"Where the hell are you?!" - Ashton. I winced a little when I hear his voice.. "i suppose you knew we had a meeting here"

Oh, Shoot! My minds' filled with Janice' absence. "Ah... Yes, Sir. Coming".

He glared at me as soon as I stepped in his office. I bowed apologetically without looking at his eyes. I'll definitely be swayed if I do.
I took a chair just a little farther from them and I really am so embarrassed with Ashton's glaring eyes! My God! What is so wrong with this guy??

"Can you catch up with your distance?" taas kilay na sabi nya.

"Ah.. Yeah.. Sorry", sabay lipat sa tabi nya. Naging sunod sunuran na talaga ako sa kanya. This is getting really bad. Still, I composed myself and act in a position that I am supposedly, a secretary getting busted by a boss. Ni hindi ko na sya tinapunan ng tingin pagkatapos kung makalipat. Bagkus tinignan ko si Clint ng may pagkapahiya.

"It's alright" he smiled. Oh well, men... They're wearing a different mask to lure in women. Though I can feel sincerity with his gesture. I just reply with a nod while turning on the laptop.

They begin discussing the terms and conditions in the contract. Revisions took about an hour and I began retyping the necessary inputs for their confirmation and approval.

"So, how about giving our babies a match Lorenzo? Same place.. I barely manage to ride her here. For old time sake?" Clint began to chat. Babies huh? And here I thought they don't even talk with each other.

"Not a problem with me, I'm cool with it", Ashton shrugs it off. He then looked at me like he was in deep thoughts. "Done?"

"Just a couple of minutes, Sir. I'll just print this out", I replied without looking at him and began walking towards the door. Now I'm acting like an idiot, eh? Whatever.

"Shall we?" Clint asked after they're done signing.. Is he referring to me? I was about to respond when...

"Later Shaw... Be there at 7" Ashton boringly said. Tsk.
Clint asked if I'm coming with them but you know i can't really respond without Ashton interrupting. And the invitation ends up with the usual.. Nah, she's not coming. She'll be busy tonight. Like what the hell, right? Am I a toy or something? Damn all men!
