25 First fight

When his lips left hers, she felt quite cold. It felt like she just lost a part of herself....wasn't this a bit too much? How could she have gotten used to him in just a few minutes.

"Do you want me kiss you again, Michelle?"

Michelle's eyes snapped open hearing Carlos's teasing voice so close to her ear.

Michelle's looked into his eyes, she was definitely not going to turn away just because she felt embarrassed. "Sure, I would love that"

Her answer caught him off guard. He expected her to look away shyly or something...

Carlos chuckled and flicked her forehead lightly "Getting naughty aren't we?"

Michelle rolled her eyes before turning away, Carlos was still holding her close to him..it felt nice....wait!

"You can let go now" Michelle said earning a scoff from the man in front of her "Its obvious you don't don't want me to...anyways, come. Let me show you around"

Michelle nodded, after walking for quite sometime, Michelle suddenly remembered what she wanted to ask a few minutes....hours ago.

"Erm...why are you showing me around?....Are going to give the house to me?" Michelle asked as her eyes sparkled with excitement. It can be like those romance novels where their rich boyfriends give out houses to their girlfriends like its nothing...she's actually his girlfriend...right?

"What's going through that head of yours?" Carlos laughed at her expression "You really think I'll give this house to you?...Ha!"

"Tch!'' Michelle glared at him for a few seconds before looking away. " Then why am I here?"

Carlos smiled slightly "This place used to be an orphanage....its where I grew up" Michelle's eyes widened as he turned to look at him "You're adopted?"

Carlos shook his head "No. My mother abandoned me at the hospital when I was I was born"

Michelle watched him speak and felt like punching his face, he speaking like it was a normal thing.

"Anyways, I thought I would ask you a few questions as well...I don't mind dating a woman I don't know as long as its you but I think it would be better if we knew more about each other....don't you think?" Carlos turned around and noticed that the girl was glaring at him....he sighed in relief. He was tired of seeing those looks of pity any time someone found out his past, he hated it....but why was she gkaing at him though?

"What?"

"I'm hungry" Michelle said, she wasn't going to bring up the topic unless he did. It sounded sad, she wasn't ready to ruin the mood just yet.

"Let's go to the garden" Carlos said holding the girl's hand. Michelle stared at their intertwined fingers and a smiled appeared on her lips. She wondered what her brother's reaction would be if she told him she had a boyfriend, he would be the first person she would tell.

Michelle smiled at the thought....boyfriend...she didn't like that name though.

After eating to her fill, Carlos decided to take Michelle back. "Why were you sent to live with your grandmother?"

Michelle sighed "Apparently, I was too stubborn and needed to be disciplined..." Michelle smiled slightly "My grandmother though, she says its because my father wanted a male child and I wasn't one....I still don't get it though, I mean John is male, why is he always so strict towards me?"

Michelle shook her head "Oh well, all of that is over anyways"

Carlos looked at the girl who trying to hide the fact that she was hurt and sighed. "You know...I think you should talk to your father about it, just let him know how you feel"

Michelle shook her head "I'd rather not, I'm not angry at him anymore, I just don't see a need"

Carlos smiled staring at her "You look cute when you lie"

Michelle turned look at him with a glare "I'm not lying!" She puffed up her cheeks and looked away. "You're so annoying!!" She said angrily while string out the window

Carlos chuckled "Did we just have our first fight?"

Michelle giggled and hit his shoulder lightly "This doesn't count"

After dropping Michelle off, Carlos drove back to the empty house they visited a few hours ago. There were now a few maids in the house and Martin was also there as well.

When Michelle was here, he had asked her what she felt could bring out the beauty of the mansion and make it more like a home.

She listed a few things which he diligently memorized and stored in his heart, after all....this house would be theirs, once they get married that is....

He wasn't going to tell her that now though... he didn't want to scare her away.

"Boss...you haven't even asked her first before making all these plans, what if she says no?"

Carlos sent a glare to his assistant making him shut up immediately.

"It won't happen....I will wait for a few years, I will make her love me just as much as I love her....why am I even telling you this? With your current IQ you won't understand shit!"

Carlos said before walking away. Watching his boss take large strides away, Martin subconsciously put his hand on his chest 'Ouch!'
