Impossible

"Mila, can we talk" said Damien.

He had walked into the cafeteria stopping all the murmurs and noise as he headed towards Sam and Mila's table.

She nodded getting up.

"You're done?" he asked.

"Almost, I can return after," she said.

He took her woodland and stood aside for Mila to walk ahead. She smiled and took the lead, he followed her.

They got to his office and he placed down her food and pulled a seat for her.

Mila sat down, Damien got into his seat and took a deep breath.

"Something happened?" she asked.

He gazed into her eyes wondering how to ask her.

Mila gazed back at him with worry.

"I need to go for a trip and I didn't want to..."

She stopped him.

"It's alright if you're worried about me being alone at home, I can stay at Sam's place " she smiled.

"I don't think it will be safe?" he said.

"Why is someone after me?" she asked.

"No, I had the witches handled so there is no threat am just worried " he said.

Mila smiled, "No worries if anything happens I can go to Doctor Ian or call you"

He smiled back at her, she seemed used now to his presence and that of his friend. She was ready to ask for help from him now.

"Mmm, that's okay," he said.

Mila sat in his office chatting with him until she finished her lunch.

.....

"Did you tell her about the trip?" asked Ian.

"I could not," said Damien.

"Expected that " Ian laughed.

"You did, is that why you told me to ask her?" he frowned.

"You have never held back on anything, but see you now estimating to tell her such a simple thing "

"I don't think Mila would see it as something simple. It's a trip me and her alone " he said.

Ian scoffed.

"In case you forgot, you both spent Christmas alone, with only each other. It's not that different "

Damien sighed.

"She is still going through a lot right now, am going to wait " he said.

Mila walked in and Damien hung up.

"Are you done packing?" she asked.

He nodded.

"What time is your flight?" she asked.

"Ten in the evening," he said

"Oh then can I go with you, I need a lift to Sam's place " she asked.

"Mmm," he agreed.

.....

"Here we are, Mila " Damien said to her when they got to Sam's place.

She smiled getting out, his driver got her luggage out of the car and passed it to Sam who had been waiting out of her place.

Mila turned to Damien who seemed worried. She got closer tiptoeing.

He felt her hand upon his forehead as she gently caressed it, pushing away the frown.

"I know you're worried about me but I will be fine with Sam...so please stop frowning. It doesn't look good on your face " she said.

His eyes were on her as he felt something pound so loud in his chest and ears.

He bent down as his hand slid to her neck, Mila felt her head being pulled towards him by her neck.

His lips met her, his warmth seemed to fill her as he kissed her. Mila froze surprised by his kiss.

He pulled away.

"Please stay safe for me," he said.

She blinked smiling.

"Mmm, I will so please come back soon," she said.

"I will " he completely pulled away and moved back to the car.

Mila stepped to where her friend was with her rosy cheeks.

She waved at him. And he responded they got into the car.

They drove off and Mila sighed.

"I need to ask you something, and I know I did already but am asking again " said Sam.

Mila turned to her.

"What is it?".

"Are you in love with the boss?" she asked.

Mila gapped not saying anything.

"Why aren't you answering, you can be doubting your feelings right now " added Sam.

"I...I..." Mila muttered.

"You what Mila....cause right now his so in love with you. And if you haven't fingered out your feelings for him then stop giving him all these mixed signals " her friend said.

Mila frowned.

"But Sam I don't want to hurt him and...and he is so nice to me "

"His not only nice Mila but is in love with you "

"I don't think that'possible right now....his just being..."

"Being what my dear friend, everyone around you both can see how much his in love and you're saying it's impossible, are you blind?" asked Sam.

Mila breathed.

"He treats you well, gives you everything you need, and is physical with you. What else do you need to know..and I believe he has told you how he feels about you already ".

Mila pulled away from Sam.

"Where are you going?"

"I need some fresh air," she said.

"Alright, take your time as you think about what to do next, bestie," said Sam.

"Okay," Mila walked off.
