It's been two months since the kitchen argument with Trent. He has been sleeping in the mornings as I get ready for work. He comes home after me, so I've been in my room most of the time, so I have barely seen him. Adriana visited once to see the place and left after he was in his room. when we do run into each other, we normally fight, so I just avoid him for the most part. Today is Friday, the day I show my design to Mrs. Brown. I grab my work clothes and under garnments and make my way to the bathroom and lock the door.
I hurried and took a shower and got dressed and did my hair. My shirt is a silky beige over the shoulder shirt with a black pencil skirt that comes to my knees. I walked to my room to get my black heels on and checked my phone for the time and realized I still had time to eat breakfast
So, I made my way to the kitchen. As I walked in, Trent was there drinking coffee. I walked past him to the fridge and pulled out some eggs and butter, and put two pieces of bread in the toaster. I walked to the cabinet and pulled out a frying pan and an egg turner. I took the toast out of the toaster and putted mayo on it, then put my eggs on top to make an egg sandwich. I put the pan in the sink and washed it, then went to get some orange juice out of the fridge when the devil spoke up.
"Paisley, there's some coffee left if you want a cup." he said, eyeing me
Shock isn't a word I would describe when it comes to him, but I was. Turning around to look at him "Did you put poison in it?"
"If I wanted to get rid of you, I wouldn't poison you"
"That's not reassuring, but I'll take a cup. Thanks" I said as I grabbed a mug and poured me a cup. "To let you know my best friend is coming over after work to get ready for the club. So do me a favor and keep your comments and hands off her" I said as I started eating my sandwich
"Whatever you say, Sweetheart" He replied
"How many times do I have to tell you I'm not your Sweetheart."
"Until it doesn't bother you anymore."
"Don't you have anything better to do than hit on me?"
"You know you are falling for my charm"
"Calling you an idolt would be an insult to all stupid people. I'm leaving." I sighed
"See you tonight, Sweetheart" He chuckled
"What the hell is wrong with you? One minute you insult me and the next you give me coffee and flirt with me. Which is confusing cause I know you dont like me."
"Do you want me to like you?" He smirked
"I don't care if you like me or not. Just stop being... YOU around me jerk."
"It's only a matter of time before you fall head over heels for me. Just wait."
"In your dreams"
"No, Sweatheart. In yours"
"Jackass." I grabbed my purse and stromed out of the condo and made my way to work.
*******************************
There was a soft knock on my door. I looked up as Alyssa cracks open the door and sticks her head through. "Mrs. Brown is here." She announced
"Send her in, Alyssa. Thanks. " She nods and exits
A few seconds later, Mrs. Brown walked into my office, followed by a very attractive men in a business suit that can't be more than twenty-five. "Good afternoon, Mrs.Brown" I greeted her, extending my hand.
"Good afternoon, dear. I hope you don't mind, I brought my son with me today." She replied, shaking my hand
"No, not at all." I held out my hand for him to shake."It's nice to me you. I'm Paisley. "
"The pleasure is all mine." He smiled while shaking my hand. "I'm Deacon,"
"Let me get those designs for you." I walked to my desk and pulled out my notebook and turned to the page, and walked back over to her. "Here you go. If there is anything you would like to change, just let me know."
She took the notebook from me. "This is stunning," she smiled, flipping through the pages. "I wouldn't change a thing."
"I'm glad you like it." I said relieved
"You have a gift, that's for sure."
"Thank you, that means a lot. I'll call you sometime next week for a fitting to make sure the measurements are right."
"Sounds great hun. See you then. "
"Have a good day," I said, shaking her hand goodbye
"You too, dear," She replied, getting ready to walk out the door
"I'll be right out, mom," Deacon said
"Alright," she smiled
"Is everything alright?" I asked him
"Yes, everything is fine. I just wanted to ask if you would like to have dinner with me tonight?"
"Oh," I said, shocked
"I'm sorry that was too soon to ask. You probably have a boyfriend anyways, "
"No, It ok. It just took me by surprise. I don't have a boyfriend."
"Well, in that case, I really hope you let me take you out so we can get to know each other." He sounded hopeful
"I would like that. Tonight, I'm actually going to the club with my best friend, but you are more than welcome to come along."
"You sure your friend won't mind?"
"Nope, she's cool," I giggled. "Here's my address and number." I wrote on a piece of paper and handed it to him."We are leaving at seven"
"Great, see you then." He smiled and walked out of the room
I was still standing in the same spot, going over what just happened. It's been a while since I dated. I just got out of a four year relationship recently. I decided to text Adrianna to let her know we will be having company tonight. After about twenty minutes, she texted me flipping out, telling me she was going to bring me a dress to wear that would make him go crazy. I swear she is more excited than I am. I looked up at the time and noticed it was three minutes until five. So I gathered my things and headed to my car. I'm hoping Trent won't be home
