《Mr. CEO》A New Home
Advertisement
It wasn't hard to wake up today to go to work, and it definitely wasn't a bad morning either. I woke up with a smile on my face, I stretch out like the cats and even squeal a bit, my parents always misunderstand the squeal for something bad, I giggle because I remember them always come running to see if something bad happened, if mum didn't come, dad will and the opposite, and they always telling me that one day I'm going to break my back if I keep stretch out like this, did I lessen? Nope.
My thought was going to yesterday evening, when I go to visit my parents, the day wa--, my thought was cut short when I looked at the time, it's 7:50, oh my god I'm so going to be late, I scramble away from the bed and rush to the bathroom; 15 minutes later I was closing my apartment door and rushing to my car, while making sure that everything I need is in my bag.
I arrived to the building after one hour, I go straight to my desk, loge in my computer, take Arrow schedule and the coffee I buy it to him, and go to his office, I knocked and enter after he told me to come in.
"good morning sir, how are you today?" I ask him with an innocent smile
"that's not going to work today Ella." He said glaring at me, but I know better, if he's angry he will call me Rosella, and he didn't.
"I buy you coffee?" I said unsure and a nervous smile on my face, while holding the coffee for him
"thank you, but that's not helping you either." He said with smirk
"I'm sorry, but I can't help it, and stop glaring I know you are not mad." I mumble the last part quietly so he couldn't hear me, but judging from his assuming smile I think he heard me.
"okay, can't you look for another apartment? You seriously need to stop coming late. " he said seriously, all the playfulness gone.
"of course I did, but I didn't find one closer to work and the price is good to me." I said even whined at the end.
"what's the price that is good for you?" he asked
"I don't know, something cheap enough, and good." I said confused by his questions
"how much do you have in your bank account?" he asked
"what the hell? What's all this question about?" I narrow my eyes at him
"don't worry, I think I know a place where you can live at." He said it so causally like it's nothing, but in reality it is.
A smile light up my face and a squeal left my lips, "if you weren't so far I would have hug you.", he look at me like he want something or want to say soothing but decide against it, instead he shack his head chuckling and coming around his desk.
"now tell me, where is it? What's it like? Is it-" he cut me off by placing his hands on my shoulders.
"calm down, I will take you to it after work." He said looking me in the eye
I was silence for a minute because of the trance his eyes made me enter before his word sink into my mind and I whined a long 'no'
"come on, it's too long" I said then add after I remember his schedule, "okay, you see, you have a meeting in less than fifteen minutes and the next meeting is on two, so if you finished your meeting in three hours mix, we would have two hours to go and get back here before your next meeting time." I told him excitingly, we are still standing the same, his hands on my shoulders, he's so close that I have to look up when I talk to him. He was smiling at me sweetly and then he say okay, I was surprised he give in so easily, I was exciting too much that I squeal and throw my arms around his neck hugging him.

His arms come around me hesitation at first, but after a seconds he hug me back and pull me more to his body, I sigh in connect and bury my face in the crook of his neck, he lay his head on the side of mine. God I thought this moment will never come, we stood like that a little bit longer before his arms tighten around me then he begin to pull a way, when I pull away I didn't pull my arms completely, which made him stay within arm length, and in my arms a little longer, I don't want to let go, I'm afraid if I let go I won't have a moment like this again, I won't be in his arms again.
They say that the eyes is the door of the person emotion, I think that what happened, I think that he saw what I felt in my eyes, because the next thing I know I was pulled over to him one more time for a quick hug, his arms tight around me, he kiss the crook of my neck , my forehead then he pull away. "I should go to the meeting, when I finish it I will call you so we could go to see the apartment, okay?" he said softly, I couldn't speak so I nodded, he smile at me sadly then left to go the meeting.
I feel like he's going to the army because of all the drama that has happened now, god. I giggle at my thought, god help the army waives. Oh I like the army waives show.
I get out of his office giggling and shaking my head, I get bake to work, I have to make some contracts.
After two hours of writing, reading and re-writing, I finished, and my neck is sore, I begin to massage it when I remember his kiss on my neck, it was a simple kiss, so gentle like he was afraid that I'm going to push him away or something, I scuffed, ha like that's going to happened.
I was biting my lips and daydreaming about my boss kissing me that I didn't notes him standing on front of my desk until he said "I'm sorry to interrupt your daydreaming-" I look up at him wide eyes "but we have to go, if you like?" he said smirking
I was blushing so hard by now, "sorry sir" I said then take my bag and go around my desk to him
"ready to go." He asked with smile
"yes." I said, we left my desk and go to the elevator, he put his card on it, it opened and we step inside, this elevator is privet, no one has the accesses to expect me and him.
"so where is this place?" I asked
"a building not far from work. I know the owner. You will love it" he said looking at me smiling
The doors of the elevator open and we step out and go to his car, oh god yes, he come in his Audi car, I look at him ready to ask him to let me drive it when he say "Nope, not going to happened."
"but why? You are my friend, we aren't at work so you should let me." I said smiling
"and as your friend who's afraid about his baby from anything happened to her, I tell you nope, no one but me drive it." He said smirking
"oh yes I know, Tom will die to drive it, but every time you dicied to take it you tell Tom to take the day off so you can drive it." I said pouting and get in the car

"don't worry I will let you drive one of my others cars." He said
"I will hold you to it." I tell him, then add, "what made you so sure that I will love it?" I asked confused
"you will see." Is all he say, the car ride was silence, we arrived in ten minutes to the building that the apartment in it, we step to the desk, Arrow starts speaking to the receptionist and I stand behind him looking at him, he was wearing a three pieces suit but he let the jacket in the car, god he look so sexy and handsome in it, I think it's a new one.
I was brought back to the task on hand by Arrow telling me to following him, we ride the elevator up to the 16th floor, we get off and Arrow start walking to the third door, there isn't many people on this floor, there only four doors on the whole hall.
"are you going to stand there all day or you going to come to look at the condo?" he teas me
I blush and go to him and step inside, my face light up and I begin to look at my surrounding, everything looked sleek and modern, high-priced paintings were strategically placed on white walls and an enormous TV set in front of an L-shaped cream couch and single couch to complete it with coffee table on the middle, I walk farther in it to see the kitchen, it's modern French, I look to my left to see a door, I open it to see it a room with king size bed with simple white sheets on it and white carpeting, a dresser and a desk on the far side, but what got my attention is the wide glass window with the heavy white curtains encompassed almost the whole wall to my right.
Now I know what he meant when he said 'you will love it', he knew I love the wall windows, oh god it has a great view of the city.
"this is just the guest room" Arrow said softly, I turn around to look at him, he was too closed, there was a huge grin on my face.
"yes, I like it, if this is the guest room, what's the master room looked like?" I asked exciting
"how about we go and see?" he said smiling
I nodded quickly edger to see it, we get out from the guest room to the master bedroom, when we enter it my mouth drop open, god I love it.
The first thing I notes is the glass window that stand instead of a wall, with darker-gray heavy curtains, the view showed the entire city, prime view. I stood in front of it thinking how this will going to look after the sunset; and like he knew what I was thinking about he say, " it look so beautiful in the night".
He would be a great seller man, I giggle a bit and look at him with so much joy in my eyes, "you would be a great seller." I told him.
I look at the rest of the room to see that there is a king size bed covered in luxury white sheet with simply navy trim, there is two loveseat and a small coffee table with a flat screen TV, there was a door that led to the master bathroom and another door that led to the closet.
I go to the closet and open it, I look huge and almost empty. I said almost empty because there was a few t-shirts, tow suits, a few pants and a different kind of shoes, all of them is for man's, a particularly man that is standing in front of the window looking outside, god he look so handsome, quietly I take my phone out of my bag and open the camera, I silence the camera so he won't tell; I take ten picture before I put it back in the bag.
I take a t-shirt and go to him, "do you think the owner of this t-shirt will mind if I take it?" I said to him and pretend to look at the shirt, when I look up I found him looking at me sheepishly rubbing the back of his neck, I smile at him.
"do you think if I go to the kitchen and opened he fridge I will see it empty?" I asked innocently
"okay fine, I own this condo, I used to live here after I moved from my last house until I find another, but I keep it for emergency." He tell me
"oh, you mean the days when you tell me that you have something important to do after every problem we had in the company, and you go like a zombie then return like a new guy?" I asked him with smirk
He looked at me with wide eyes full of shocked, "I thought no one know?"
"don't worry, no one know expect me, every time when you tell me that I see a keys in your hand that are not in your keys chain, and I know you come here to sleep then refresh." I told him smiling shyly
"okay busted, but really I don't want it anymore so if you like it, tell me and we will talk then." He said to me
"I love it actually, but you are not going to give it to me for free, I will pay you, and then we put it in my name." I told him with tone of finality
"you know I don't need the money, you don't have to pay me anything, I will put it in your name anyway, you could save the money for your company" he tel me
"no Arrow, you know I don't like this shit, so stop trying." I tell him angry
"okay clam down, you can pay, but I will put it in your name." he said
"fine." I smile, oh my god, I found a house, and it's look great, I squeal and jumped a bit while clapping.
"oh my god, I'm so exciting, when can I move?" I asked him
He laugh at me and tell me that I can move tomorrow. We left the condo to return to the company, in the car he asked me if I need aday off tomorrow.
"yes, that would be great, thank you, I will finish my work and I will be on the phone with you for anything." I said smiling
"okay, do you want to change anything in the house?" he asked
"yes, I want to buy a new coffee table to the living room and a new dresser with some accessory for the house." I tell him
"there is a new set of sheets in the closet if you like to change it." He said
"do you mean that there is another sheets for when I go to sleep?" I asked confused
"no, I was using it like covers myself, but if you don't like sleeping on someone else shets." He asked with small frown on his face, he look cute
"thanks," he said smirking, oh god did I say that aloud, I blush like crazy and answer his question
"back to the topic, it depends," I said
"on what exactly?" he asked confused
"did you bring girls in the house?" I asked
"you mean if I had sex on the bed?" I looked a way blushing, I heard him laughing
"oh god, stop" I said hiding my face behind my hands ,
"okay okay, I'm sorry, no I actually I'm not, I like making you blush" he said with smirk
"oh god" by now my face looked like tomato
"you look cute when you blush" he said, oh my god, did he call me cute, before I said anything he add "anyway, no I don't bring girls in my house"
"why?" I asked confused then I realized why and say before him, " because it's easier to escape for you and that way the girl don't play the wife part with you."
"oh yes, I hate it if she wake up before me, it's so awkward" h even shudder
"god you are an ass with girls." I said smirking
"only the girls that I don't care about and love them" he said and cut the engine of the car, "come on, I'm going to be late"
We get out and enter the building, from there on the day continue normally until a mailman come looking around him holding bouquet of flowers.
"hello, are you Rosella Taylor?" the mailman asked
"yes that's me" I asked confused
"this is for you." He handle me it and left, I was smiling thinking it was from Arrow but when I open the card and read what it say, my whole body frozen, in that moment Arrow come from his meeting to see me like that.
"Ella what's wrong." He asked I know he's worried from his tone, I couldn't answer so he take the letter to see what it say.
