The Ceo's Ex-Wife

"I hope you realize this is kidnapping" I snapped , filling the silence of his car as we drove to heavens know where, I was already in a bad mood now I'm in a even worser mood

"And I hope you realize you are being over dramatic" he retorted, the devil not taking his eyes off the rode "a cup of coffee and a meal will not hurt you"

I huffed in response, I knew he was trying to be nice, and he was right about not being safe on my own, though I will not admit it out aloud, regardless of his generosity, I was not in the mood to entertain or deal with him. As selfish as it may sound, and naive but the dangers of what may happen to me may be a merciful end to the emotions that are devouring me. Was it too much to ask that I be alone to allow everything that happened completely sink in. I knew that in a few short hours the silence and peace I so desperately crave will be nearly impossible to obtain, but what could I do, jump out of the car? Yes I wanted to be alone, but I am not crazy. A few hours won't kill me right, and I am hungry. I handled being married to a cheater for 2 years, I think I can handle a stubborn man for a few hours.

We entered the parking lot of this old fashion diners, it was very retro chic, I was in awe of the old fashion diner, however it was not as trendy as many other retro diners, though this one had more of a homey feel, it was not to flashy, it was beginning to show its age, the sign lights flickered, and you could tell that its been a long time since the place had a paint job, it reminded me of the diner back in my home town

I would never execpt a man like him even know places like this, I know for a fact Noah didnt, nor did my former friend's husband, I always thought a CEO would never be caught in a low run down, place like this

I felt a sudden surge of nostalgia shot through me as various childhood memories began playing in my mind like flashback, both happy and sad, mostly happy, I was so in trazed, that I didn't realize it untill I startled myself by a sudden chuckle

"Have you never seen a diner before princess?" Lucas ask, noticing I was lost in my own thoughts that I didnt realize he had already parked and went around the car to open the door for me

I clear the sudden lump that had formed in my throat "My apologizes this dinner just reminded me of my childhood" I say smiling at the thought "I never thought someone like you would even drive by a place a like this, let alone, dine in" my anger that I had previously felt seemed to have completely vanished

He chuckled in response "clearly you dont know me well"

When we entered, we were seated immediately, because there arent many people out and about at this time, which was nice, I could have a meal without being swarmed

"So how did you find this place" I ask, my eyes scanning on through the menu

do i want pancakes or waffles, is weird to be eating breakfast in the middle of the night?

"Would you believe me If I said I owned it"

"I hope you don't, cause if you do, it doesnt look lime you've been taking care of it" I exclaimed motioning towards the cleary outdated, and torn up booth chairs, though I didnt mind, and I'm not saying its not impossible for him to own this place, but you would think if he owned it he would take better care of the place

He let out a gasp, bringing his hand near his mouth in a dramatic way "Well aren't you a smart cookie" he teased playfully smirking at me, I only rolled my eyes at his behavior "well, well, well, look who is finally smiling again" he added

I rasied a brow at him "I have no idea what you are talking about" I replied, rolling my eyes again

"Roll your eyes all you want, that way I get to see your smile even more"
