SKYPE

"I'm entitled to a question today right?"

"You mean the deal? Of course."

"You don't have to answer it if you don't want to but... what happened that day?"

[He gulps down and there is the strongest urge to tell her everything.]

"I know I've been a real arse about not replying to your texts or answering your calls and I'm sorry. I really am. But I'm afraid..."

"It might have to wait for another day instead. Is that okay?"

"Yeah, of course. It's just been fucking shitty without you these few days..."

[A little, only just a little, he felt his heart squeeze for a split second. This woman in front of him craved his presence and Silas desired the same. Every day.]

"Is there anything that happened?"

"Apart from an asswipe who slapped me, oh and a douchebag who left me on the read multiple times, I think I'm okay."

"I'll make it up to you, I promise."

"Oh yeah? Tell me how, pretty man."

"Ah so you think I'm handsome? Is that it?"

"Didn't I already tell you before? Don't push it you narcissist."

"I'd like very much to hear it again, sweetheart."

"Hear what, huh?"

"Pleeease tell me I'm hot."

[Naya grumbles for a bit. But her expressions changes quickly. She already knew, with or without having Silas to remind her, that he was a godly man of the most exquisite structure; as if every nook and cranny had been sculpted by Michelangelo himself.]

"Silas Richards Lancaster is the most stunning man I've ever met."

[She speaks with a smile painted on her face.]

"Good?"

[Silas' eyes fixate on Naya as he runs a finger along his jaw.]

"What?"

"I'm just thrilled to see you so contented and happy when you speak about me."

"Egoistic shithead."

"That's me."

"So tell me. Who was that vixen who slapped you? Who ever hurt my sweetheart?"

"Just someone."

"Sunshine, you've to tell me what's going on so I can yank that girl's hair off."

"Like I said in my text, it was this person who took our photo. And I got pissed because she started insulting me. That's it."

"Insulting you how?"

"Silas, don't worry. It's nothing I can't handle, she was just looking for trouble."

[Every question he asked, made her feel all the more guilty.]

"Alright, alright. I won't force you to expound the details but be safe. Don't let anyone put a finger on you. Arm yourself with pepper spray or a nunchuck."

"Yes, okay, okay. I gotta go, got work today. I'll talk to you later."

"Ciao, amore mio."

<notice to silas, naya is a woman and the 'vixen' aka Karen is just a girl>

this chapter didn't really tell much. it's just to show how both of them are not ready to talk about their secrets and stuff and their feelings are intensifying. but we know Naya's secret... what is Silas'?
