"Hm, I'm sure some of them aren't mature." I frowned. No I'm sure they aren't… "Della certainly isn't." He added. "Apparently Della is a fan of yours." I glanced at his eyes as he leant across the bed and gestured for me to sit with him. "Among a few others…" I shook my head and kicked off my heels. "Oh c'mon Av you're killing me." I examined him smirking at me and I unbuttoned my shirt a little and took my blazer off.
"How'd you know all of that?" I questioned him.
"Jay told me. I swear if that prick looks at you the wrong way I'll kill him." I rolled my eyes and felt him pull me so that I was on the bed.
"Don't be ridiculous!" I scoffed.
“I don’t understand why you're thinking about taking a job. You don’t have to work.” His words left his mouth almost without another thought.
“I WANT to work Harry. That’s how you survive? You need money to survive…” Wow well done Miss State The Obvious.
“But that’s what I’m here for.” I grimaced and shook my head.
“We are not having this conversation Haz. I am not your trophy.” I snarled. "In fact I'm not even officially your anything." My arms instantly folded and I watched as he bit down on his lip.
“You’re impossible.” I scoffed at his comment and went to climb off his lap.
“Me!?” He didn't look towards me, he just held me in place on his lap.
"Yes you." I didn't go there for an argument but it looked as though an argument is what I'd be getting. He ran his fingers over my arm softly and I instantly stilled. "Where'd you think your going?" He muttered softly as he leant into me. Goosebumps filled my skin and I swallowed the lump in my throat. He rolled so that I was now pinned beneath him and my chest fluttered.
"I was going to go home. I didn't come here to argue." My eyes traced over his face. His lips ran the length of my jaw before they landed against my lips. My eyes fluttered shut before I placed my hand against his shoulder. "Don't play this game, it's not fair." He continued to kiss down my neck towards my chest. There was now a pool between my legs as I blushed. "You can't use your charm and your," I stumbled on my words and felt him smirk against my chest.
"Devilish good looks?" He finished off my sentences and I shrugged.
"Yeah that." I added breathlessly.
“I’m sorry Avay. I’m trying this is just what I know.” I smiled a little to myself and rolled my eyes. Of course this was how he knew how to fix it. He'd never had to grovel before. I ran my hand over his face and exhaled.
“I'm just extremely tired and ratty, it's been a long day." He nodded in agreement and I watched as he pulled his phone from his bedside table and I watched as it unlocked it reveal a picture of us. His head is tilted towards mine and I wasn't sure whether I was smiling or I was mid laugh. I grinned to myself.
"Fuck me we were subtle hey?" I smirked and watched him chuckle.
"Oh yeah proper." I watched as he gestured towards the time and I frowned.
"Shit I'm sorry I didn't realise it was so late?" I ran my hand against the stubble on his face and watched him place his phone next to me.
"Wanna stay here then?" I smiled up at him and kissed him softly before I let my lips linger there for longer than they should have.
"Hm, what's in it for me Vens?" I raised my brow at him and watched as he smirked.
"Well," his large hand ran underneath my shirt across the skin of my stomach and I giggled like a schoolgirl. "I could think of a thing or two?" I ran my fingers through his soft, just washed hair and wrapped my legs around his waist. I would be more than happy to get lost in him for
Holt - Thursday
Alfie's house had been sureen the entire morning. When I woke he was no longer in the room or even the house. I'd assumed he'd gone to the gym or work? I glanced at my phone that was placed on my bedside table, he must have plugged it in so it didn't die overnight. I ran my fingers over the screen and smirked to myself. I loved that picture. His arms are either side of me and I'm looking up whispering in his ear at that dinner. Honestly I'd never tire of seeing it. I checked my calls and almost fell out of bed when I saw I'd missed a call from a local number. Shit it's Thursday! The job. I dialed the number back as quickly as I could and after a few rings a lady answered.
"Good morning HJC Law. How can I help you?" Her voice was sweet and I recognised the tone.
"Oh erm hi, I've had a missed call on this number? My names Avaya Holt?" I heard a pause.
"Avaya it was me I called! It's Della? I was on the interview panel." My hands shook slightly with nerves as I tried my hardest to speak without sounding absolutely ridiculous.
"Hi Della how are you?" I glanced at the door where Chlo was peeking through the crack. I shook my head at her and pointed at my phone which was placed on my ear. She winked and made her way in. I was and truly distracted now.
"I'm very well thank you. I hope you will be once I've broken the good news." My breathing stopped as she began to speak again. "We'd like to offer you the position of assistant to the executive director of finance." I had to stop my myself from screaming down the phone and watched as Chlo jumped up and down.
"Oh really!? That's amazing,
