I'll Make It Up To You.

Paige had a lot of fun with Zane throughout the night. He even bought some food for her to take home.

When it was late, he drove her back home.

"Um, I'll be going to an art exhibition with my boss on Saturday"

"Art exhibition? Cool" he smirked.

"What?" She asked.

"What?" He asked in reply.

"You smirked" she said.

"No, I didn't" he said. She stretched her hand and touched his face, staring at him.

"You did" she said. Zane touched her hand while he was lost in her eyes.

"Your hands are so soft" he said.

She blushed and slowly removed her hands from his face.

"I'll go in now. Good night" she said shyly and ran into the house without turning to stare at him. Zane smirked again and zoomed off. He had already found interest in her.

The next morning...

Nate went to the company early because he had a meeting with his shareholders. After the meeting, Betsy walked to him with a document which he signed. He collected it and stared at her.

She raised her head and their gaze met with each other.

"Whatever you and Quinn are planning behind my back, just be hundred percent sure that it won't work. I won't even take off your pants nor end up on the bed with you" he said and signed the papers. He handed it over to her immediately.

He took few steps away from her and stopped halfway.

"What about Paige?" He asked.

"You told her to come when it's 9am sir" she said.

He didn't utter any other word. He just walked away from her and head to his office. He pushed the button of the elevator repeatedly and stared at his watch. It was 9am already. The door open and he saw Paige. A weird smile appeared on his face as he stepped into the elevator and pushed the button again.

"Good morning Paige" he greeted. Paige stole glances from him and looked away.

"Good morning" she replied, still not looking at him. She was feeling uncomfortable with him around her. The thought of what he did to her when they were in high school kept on playing in her head all over and over again. She can't forget it as she won't forgive him for it. He was the cause of the separation between her and her best friend, Quinn. She was even ashamed to show her face in front of Quinn. She hope they don't meet again.

The elevator dinged and opened. Paige hurriedly stepped out and walked to her office. She got in and locked the door behind. His face was the last thing she wanted to see.

.

A mocking smile appeared on Nate's face. He knows that she doesn't want to see him, but he has his own ways to make her visit him.

He went into his office and grabbed the telephone.

As Paige leaned on the door, the telephone in her office rang. She ran to it and answered it.

"Hello!"

"Bring the file to my office" he said. She heard his voice and quickly returned the telephone.

"Argh! I hate this job!" She groaned in frustration.

.

.

Nate played with his chair, moving it left and right. There was a soft knock on the door. It was Paige.

"Come in" he yelled. The door flung open as Paige walked into his office with a heap of file.

She placed it on his table and furrowed his eyebrows.

"What? Are you confused?" She asked. Nate was really surprised. He didn't mention which file he wanted because he wanted her to keep coming and going till he's tired of seeing his face.

"Why did you come with so many documents? I only asked for one"

"Listen to me Mr Nate Dawson, if you want to play games with me, now is not the good time. Pick the file you want and let me go, I have other work to do" she said, placing her hand on her waist.

He swallowed hard and grabbed the document he wanted.

"Thank you boss" she snorted and grabbed the files and walked to the door. She tried to open the door but it was difficult. Nate walked to the door and wanted to help her.

They exchanged glances with each other.

"You still haven't forgiven me huh?" He asked in a whispering tone.

"What are you talking about?" She replied back in a whispering tone.

"You don't look at me. You don't even want me to touch you"

"You are married and..."

"Yes, I know you have a boyfriend. But still, I.. I'm also your friend, right?" He asked.

"We shouldn't be having this conversation Nate. I have to go" she said, wanting to open the door but he stopped her.

"I'll make it up to you. I promise" he said.

"I hope you don't. I don't want anything to do with you anymore Nate" she said and used her elbow to twist the handle. Luckily for her, it opened after her first try. She pushed it open with her foot and left the office.

Nate threw the door close and tightened his fist. He knew he can't be with her but he wants her to be with him. He was obsessed with Paige from the beginning. Only if he ended up marrying her.

His father was to blame for everything he was going through. He had to sign his contract marriage with Quinn's father and that's why he ended up with the brat instead of the angel.

His phone rang on his table. He hurriedly walked towards it and saw the caller ID. It was Dylan.

"Hey man" he greeted.

"Nate, it's been a long while. Hope you won't miss the show tomorrow" Dylan asked.

"No, I won't miss it" he replied.

"Great. We should have a drink tonight. Meet you by 10pm at our usual location. I'll want to tell you about someone" he said.

Nate wanted to reject the proposal but he accepted it anyway.

"Sure, meet you there by 10 but, who is it that you'd like to talk about?" Nate asked.

"It's Paige" he replied.

Nate shot his eyes wide open.

"Paige?" He murmured.
