THEME: I WILL BE WAITING! ?

♣ IDAHO ♣
♣ IN A HOTEL ♣

DRAKE POV ??
I woke up to someone pressing soft kisses on my body. My eyes opened slowly to see the blond lady I brought in from the club last night
“Morning Sunshine..” She kissed my naked chest

“What was that your name again?” I asked as I rubbed my eyes

“Bay” she replied amidst silly kisses
Enough of the drama Girl!
“Why are you still here?”
Bay stopped kissing and stared at me in shock
“Are you new in this business?”
I sat up and rested my head on the board. The cover slipped from her body and revealed her bare chest. I chuckled a bit! She is a newbie! No night worker in Idaho stays in bed till daybreak. For me my girls leaves before dawn
“Didn’t the boss lady or your friends tell you I don’t like seeing ladies in my bed in the morning?”

“She didn’t” Bay stuttered
I hoped out of bed and reached for my wallet. I took out a bundle and gave it to Bay. Her eyes widened when the money dropped on the bed

“That’s your payment…You can leave”
I said and made my way to the bathroom and shut the door.

My name is Drake Robert. I am Frederick Robert only child. I am 24 years old and currently the CEO of Limos Company.

Limos Company is one of the best in Idaho. It is known for it quality textile materials. It also dabbles in other aspect too.. Hotels, restaurants and housing. We partner with several other companies and industries in USA. My dad is still the richest man in Idaho while Limos company is one of the most successful company in our state. Limos became the best when my dad became the CEO. It wasn’t this big when Grandpa was in charge. As the current CEO I plan to take Limos to the greatest level in the business world. I will Make it the best in USA. And so to achieve that part of that I’m partnering with successful businessmen in USA and over the world. Making deals,signing contracts and becoming major shareholders in some companies. That sound good but not too easy to accomplish.

Who is Drake Robert?

Drake Robert is known to be a play boy. Am I?
I won’t say I’m a Playboy. I just like flings and enjoy one nights. I don’t have time for relationships or commitment of any kind. I’m too busy for all that S–t!

You might call me a work – oriented person who is not ready to be a family man. Oh yeah! I am not ready to own a Family. I’m fine with just paying girls to warm my bed anytime I want.

I stepped out of the bathroom after taking a shower. I saw a note on the bedside drawer. Bay dropped it

“Call me anytime you need me”
she wrote down in the piece of paper with her number attached to it
My phone beeped

Sorry Bay! I don’t go back to same girl. I chalk things up to one night. I sq££zed the note and threw it across the room. Then I searched for my phone which I found under the pillow. It was Alex! My personal assistant

“Hello Alex”
“Sir Drake”
“What’s up?”
“I just called to inform you that we received a mail from Lint Corp. They are ready to make a deal with Limos”

“When?”
“Today”
“Who am I meeting?”
“Mrs Perla Bryant”
“What about Ian?”
“His assistant said he is out of the company tending to some important things”
A smile formed on my lips. It much easier to deal with the old lady than the son. Ian Bryant is a good businessman who knows the tactics of business.

Thank God i won’t be meeting him this time
“Alex book a flight for me to Chicago. I will be at the office soon”
“Okay Sir”

The line dropped
I dressed up and was about leaving the room then I remember my expensive watch.
I rushed back to the room and searched the bed. I pulled out the covers then I saw the watch. But then I saw bloodstain on the white sheet.

Did Bay see her period during the night?
Whatever! At least we used protection. I dropped the sheet back and walked out of the room. My driver was already waiting to take me to my apartment.

CHICAGO, USA

RIA APARTMENT

ELISE POV ??
“Mrs Elise did mommy call you last night?” Phoenix asked

“Yes she did but you were already asleep”
“Was the surgery a success?” Phoebe asked

“They’ve not done it but I’m sure it will be a success”

“Yes Mrs Elise” Phoenix added
“Okay that’s enough grab you bags”
I heard a horn

“The bus is here”
They picked their bags
“Bye Mrs Elise!” They waved
“Take Care!” I waved back at them from the porch

♦♦
BEIJING, CHINA
BEIKE EYE CENTRE
PRIVATE WARD

IAN POV ?
I opened the bottle of water and gave it to Ria
“Here drink up to calm your nerves”
She collected it from me and Drank from the bottle.

We were waiting for Doctor Lui team to come in and take Ria to the surgical ward. I brought her to the centre yesterday afternoon and we’ve both being here since then..with Nurses around to attend to us when we needed something.

Ria looked nervous today and coupled with the fact she didn’t sleep well last night. I had to call Mrs Elise so she could talk to the kids maybe she would stay calm but the kids were already asleep. All she did was stare into space while I worked on my system attending to an online business conference from the office. Ria managed to sleep around 10:00pm and was up around 4:00am. I couldn’t figure it want was going on on her mind. Its so hard to read through her. So I just let her have those silent moments she wanted for herself

“Thank You”

Ria whispered as she gave the bottle to me
“You have to feel relaxed Ria”
“Yeah I know” she placed her hands on her laps

“I want you to be rest assured that the surgery will go well. You believe right?” She nodded

I sat on the bed and held her right hand in mine

“Be strong Ria..everything will be fine”
Ria didn’t move my hand away.
She whispered

“thank you..Ian”
I looked at her
Ria bit her lower lip. This was the first time she called my name without a “Mr”. The door opened and Doctor Lui came in with a nurse

“It time” he announced
“The team are waiting”
I caught a glimpse of the stretcher outside
“Okay Doctor Lui”
I carried Ria in my arms and out of the ward. I placed her gently on the stretcher
“Take her to the ward. I will be there in a minute” Doctor Lui said and the nurses nodded

“Please be careful” I added and they pushed Ria away

“Doctor Lui..can I wait outside the operating room?”

“Sure you -”

I followed the nurses even before he finished his statement. I caught up with them and held her hand. Ria in turn held me tightly and I thought I saw a smile on her face or maybe I imagined it. They stopped at a point and I looked up at the sign “Operating Room 2”
It was time.

I let out a shaky breathe before leaning close to her

“It time to go in Ria” I whispered to her ears

“I will be out here waiting for you..okay?”
She nodded

I held on tightly for a second and sighed.
They pushed her into the Ward and closed the door behind.

It will work out! Ria will see again!
I leaned up against the wall and chanted in my head

•••••• IDAHO••••••
SANDERS MANSION

BAY POV ??
I walked in silently and would have tiptoed to my room but I heard her voice

“And where did you sleep last night little girl?”

I turned and saw my mom sitting on the couch with a magazine high up in the air
“I..I was at Jessica’s place last night” I lied

My mom dropped the magazine and stared at me

“I called Jessica last night -” she paused
I clenched my fist

“And she told me that she hasn’t seen you since the day before”
Now I’m dead!

“Where were you last night Bay?”
I cracked my head for the right words to say to my strict mom but nothing came. I’m a dead meat if she finds out I went clubbing last night and even slept with someone I don’t know. No! Drake Robert isn’t a strange Man! I know him! I liked him immediately I saw him on TV. And Ever since I’ve been trying to get close to him. I made up my mind to search for me and get to meet him.

“Mom..you don’t have to worry about where I slept last night. The truth is..I wasn’t at Jessica’s place. I lodged into an hotel cause I was too tired to drive home”
My mom relaxed

No I think that worked on her!
“You should have at least called to inform me that you are the hotel so the driver would have come and pick you up”

“I wanted to but my phone battery ran down..and i didn’t charge at the hotel cause.. I didn’t go along with charger”

“Okay..but please always go with it..I was so worried about you last night”

“Oh come on mom you don’t have to worry too much about me”

I’m not a kid anymore I wanted I say but if i do my mom won’t agree. I’m 23 but my mom still treats me like I’m 16. Sometimes she even pick out my dress and also I have to to tell her about my whereabout
“I have to worry..”

“Okay mom. I’ll just go ahead and take a shower”

“Okay”
Thank Goodness she didn’t find out! She believed those sweet lies!

I rushed to my bedroom and crashed in my bed happily.

I Got what i unwanted! Atlas! I met Drake Robert! We slept in the same bed and we had great sex. I can’t believe it!

I should call Jessica and tell her about it! I can’t keep it to myself!

“Hello Baby”
I said

“Hi” she yawned
“Are you still asleep?”

“Yes..cause I slept late last night”
“Okay…guess what girl?”

“Hey babe hold up..where were you last night? Your mom called me”

“Yes…yes I went clubbing”
“What?! Bay you went to club?!”
“Yes and stop sounding like I’m too small to club”

“Oh well you haven’t clubbed before”
Sounds old fashioned but I’m not!
“Yeah”

Yesterday was my first time in a club
“But..i didn’t go there to merry or dance. I went to see someone”

“See someone? Bay when did you start seeing someone?”

“Just last night”
“No..no don’t tell me you went to Tessa club to see Drake!” She screamed
“That’s it Jess!”

“What?! Are you serious Bay?!’
” yes I met Drake last night”

Actually after much findings about Drake Robert. I realized that to be able to see him then i have to go to Tessa club and act like a random big girl

“Tell me about it”
“I took the chance and went to the club..the day was so good to me. I saw Drake. I had to pay a girl to lemme join their crew. Luck was on my side, Drake couldn’t take his eyes off me! He kept staring and finally asked if we could talk at first. And after that we went to the hotel to spend some time together”
“Oh! You went with him to the hotel!”
“Yes…I just said that now”
“What?! Bay!”
“What is it Jessica?”

“Bay you slept with Drake just like that?!”
“Yes! We had great sex and it was fun Jessica! And guess what?! Drake said he likes me and that he enjoyed my body”

“Did he know last night was your first time?”

“I don’t know..about that Jess”
“That bad Bay!”

“How is it Jess?..I got what I wanted in the end”

“Yes I know cause Bay always get what she wants”

“Exactly”
“Drake is bad guy. You shouldn’t have sex with him. Bay I told you about Drake and who he is..all he does is chalk things up to one nights and flings. No commitment”

“Jess I dropped a note before leaving his room”

“What was his first word to you when he woke up?”

“Well he asked me why I was still in His bed. Actually Drake thought I was night worker. He even paid me then asked me to leave”

“Oh my God Bay! What have you done to yourself? Drake thinks you are..a w—e”

“No!”
“That was why he paid you and asked you to leave”

“I don’t think so Jess..he was very nice before we got to hotel”

“Because he was nice last night doesn’t mean he likes you. He just wanted to have you and then leave. And of course! He got what he wanted”

I itched the back of my neck
“Jess I want to believe that what Drake and i shared last night meant something to him. Cause it means a lot to me”
“Oh bay..”

“Let just put that aside Jess. So what are you up to today?”

“Nothing”
“Let’s hang out”
“Will mom allow you?”
“Yes..I will tell her I’m going with you”
“Okay be here by two”
“Okay”
She hang up
I fell back on the bed.

A smile formed on my lips when the images of last night flooded my mind.

Hours had gone by like mere moments. Drake had made me laugh. He’d been able to talk about himself more comprehensively and I had flowed freely with him. Last night had turned out to be the best night of my life. Drake had paid attention to everything I’d had to say. He’d made me feel as if I was the woman in the world. They often say that Drake Robert was bad guy but he’d been a perfect gentleman. We had finished an entire bottle of champagne when we kissed. He had finally kissed me. It was long and I’d been dying for him too. Of course i didn’t care if everyone was watching us kiss. But still Drake could kiss. When we got to the Hotel.. The way he held me.. that was arousing all on its own. I could feel the power in his arms,in his muscular body. It was leashed into gentleness it made me feel cherished. And very turned on..so turned on that i wanted to stay kissing him forever. I wanted to stay held in his arms forever. More than that i wanted to feel his touch over my body again. I hope that Drake sees the note I dropped. My number was in it and I pray he calls me soon.
