Our First Date

𝑹𝒐𝒔𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆'𝒔 𝑷𝑶𝑽

I woke up feeling extremely sore, sleep leaving my body as I rubbed my eyes gently.

Stretching my arms to my sides, I felt that the bed by my side was cold, indicating that Xavier had been up for a while already. I looked around the room and noticed my bra and lace panties on the armchair and figured Xavier put them there.

So I finally did it, I gave myself completely to a man who had so many red flags and mixed feelings, it's too late to regret my decision now cause I don't regret giving my self to him. I sighed heavily and allowed my thoughts keep me busy for a while.

So where do we go from here? Are we a thing now? Will he go back to ignoring me? What's the way forward for me now?

I shook the thoughts out of my head and just decided to act like nothing happened so in-case he decides to ignore me, I won't look weak around Ava or him. But I pray he doesn't go back to ignoring me cause I'll never forgive him if he does.

I leaned on my elbows and took one last quick look around the room and sighed heavily again. Pulling the covers up, I noticed the red blood stain on the sky blue sheets and stared at it for a while.

"Good morning Rose." He said in a clipped tone as he walked In through the door.

"Good morning Xavier." I greeted.

I didn't dare look at his face, I bet he had a look of disgust on his face. I bet he's looking at me in a condescending manner and I might die of embarrassment if I catch that look on his face.

I felt the bed dip and turned my back to him, I winced at the pain of the sudden movement but still turned anyway.

"Can you walk?" He suddenly asked.

"Yeah, I think so." He hummed and sighed.

"I'm sorry."

My heart dropped and my stomach churned.

Why was he apologizing? I felt tears prick my eyes and didn't do anything to stop it from dripping down my face.

"It's okay, I understand you were just overwhelmed last night. I won't hold it against you for feeling that way, I will stay out of your way from now on and I'll never bring up this situation again. I'm sorry for making you do something you didn't want to do." My voice wavered at the end of my sentence.

Silence.

More silence.

Silence again.

"What the fuck Rose." I looked up at him to find him staring at me with an expression I had never seen on his face before. A look of hurt?

"You think I regret getting intimate with you?" He asked and I peered my eyes from him.

"Don't you?" I whispered.

"I freaking don't! Last night turned out to be a night I'll never forget, nothing in this world can make me regret what happened last night."

I stared deep into his amber eyes.

"Last night was amazing Rose, you were fucking amazing. So don't discredit yourself kitten."

A huge smile crept to my face and I looked away shyly.

"Okay." I nodded.

He leaned over and placed a kiss on my lips, my cheeks immediately heated up.

"You're mine Rose, I'd die before I let anything and anyone take you away from me." He confessed and I grinned.

Does this make us a thing? I thought.

"Yes it does." He answered. I stared wide eyed at him before realizing I said that thought out loud. I facepalmed myself and blushed.

"Sorry, that was supposed to be a thought." He smirked.

"Get dressed, we'll be having some guests over for a meeting. And as my assistant, you need to be there."

I nodded and got of the bed, I walked to the bathroom to get ready for the day. I took a long bath, shampooed my hair, brushed my teeth, and got dressed.

I was about to apply a little light make-up when the door opened to reveal a gorgeous looking Xavier, as usual.

His light brown hair was now freshly slicked back, his beard and mustache were neatly trimmed with not a hair out of place, and he was now wearing a neatly ironed grey suit and if I may add, it made him look like a god.

He stared back at me and for a split moment I saw him flash me a small smile. My heart melted immediately.

"Hey." I greeted.

"Hey." He smiled back. "You look gorgeous as ever." I giggled shyly.

"You don't look so bad yourself Xavier."

He walked up to me and planted a small kiss on my cheek, then he stared at my face as I applied my eyeliner.

"How long more before you're done with your make up? Our guests have arrived." My head snapped to him immediately.

"What? They're here already?" I panicked.

"Hey, hey relax. It's fine.. yes they're here but the meeting hasn't started yet. That's why I'm here to get you." I relaxed but was still nervous.

I hurried with my make up and put on my pumps before getting my note pad and pen and strutting through my closet to the bar room.

I took a sit beside Xavier after curtly greeting our guests who Xavier introduced as Ashton, Luke, and David.

Ashton the main guy of the moment took a quick look at me and smiled mischievously.

"And who's this beauty Woods?"

"My assistant, now back to our meeting."

Within a few more minutes, the meeting was over and I smiled curtly at our guests as they exited the building in their Rolls-Royce limousine. i gaped at the car until it was now out of sight, so i turned to Xavier and caught him typing away on his phone. I waited for him to go inside before walking after him.

He looked away from his phone and walked back to me.

"Is there anything you'll be needing to complete your outfit?" He suddenly asked.

"Why? Are we going somewhere?" I asked curiously.

"Yes" He answered sharply.

"Where?"

"Our first date."

My eyes widened in shock.

"Aren't you supposed to ask first?" I smirked.

"Do i have to?" He smirked back.

"Technically? Yes. But I'll say yes anyway so it's fine." I blushed.
