Chapter 5 OH MY GOD... DID WE

Chapter 5

I woke up the next day and tidied up.

I went downstairs to get something to eat.

I walked into the kitchen and gathered some ingredients.

I'll just eat vegetables...

After filling my stomach with collard greens, I left the kitchen and sat on a couch.

I kept tossing and turning, feeling bored.

I switched on the TV but switched it off because I wasn't interested.

I wonder where Damon is.

I hope he's alright.

I felt so disturbed and uneasy because I don't know where Damon is.

I got up and went to his room but he wasn't there.

I checked every possible place that a human could be in the mansion but couldn't find him.

OK now I'm scared.

Chill Kath, he probably went to the office.

I'll call his office to know.

But why am I so worried about him?

I mean if it was me, he wouldn't bother about my whereabouts.

OK he will because in the means to his so called company blah!

And I'm also the one in love with him and he isn't so my feelings are my problems.

I took my phone to call his office but the door bell rang.

He must be the one.

I heaved a sigh of relief and opened the door.

My hopes were shattered when I saw that blonde bimbo.

What's her name again? Pipe... No Piper...

"Damon sweetie" she called and pushed me aside so she could come in.

"Come back here "I said between gritted teeth and pulled her back.

Whoa! I've got strength! Seeing as I could actually pull that off without having to exert myself.

She folded her hands round her chest, glaring at me.

"This house isn't for sluts like you so get out" I said sternly, losing my temper every passing second.

She scoffed as if my words didn't get to her.

"Whatever "she seethed and tried to walk past me but I pulled her back.

This time she yanked her hands off my grip, pushing me in the process and I landed on my butt.

Ouch! That hurt.

"Listen bitch! You're just here for the company contract and nothing more so know your limits" she remarked.

I got off the floor and pushed her hard.

She groaned angrily and attempted to hit me but we heard Damon's voice and she stopped.

"What the hell is going on here?" he asked, descending the stairs.

Wait! He was in the house?

I think I do need a map to know everywhere in this mansion.

"This bitch here slapped me" she lied, moving towards him.

She stood beside him, feigning hurt.

"You're the bitch here dweeb " I corrected.

"Now Katharine, do I have to teach you to behave with visitors?" he asked and I arched an eyebrow.

"Special visitor" he remarked and Piper blushed at the mention of "special ".

I rolled my eyes and turned my back on them.

I heard their footsteps going up and I sighed.

I slumped down on the couch and a tear slid down my cheek but I quickly wiped it off.

I took my phone and texted Olivia to come meet at a cafeteria right now.

I climbed the stairs, heading to my room.

Almost at Damon's room, I sucked in a breath knowing I'm going to hear moans and that'll break me.

It hurt. It really hurt than I thought it would

But what do I care? I walked past the room and to my surprise, I heard nothing.

Whatever! They'd still do it anyway.

After dressing up, I took my bag and left.

Piper and I went to my room and I sat on the couch while she stood, staring at me.

She knew something was off, I was angry.

She stood, staring at me as she waited patiently for me to speak up.

"Why did you push her?" I asked softly, trying very hard to surprise the anger in me.

"Who?" She asked. Feigning ignorance and I scoffed at her not so good performance.

"Why did you push Katharine?" I asked between gritted teeth.

"She slapped me" she lied, defending herself.

"I don't care, just never hurt her again "I remarked sternly.

"Isn't she here for the company contract only?" she asked.

"Of course"

"So why do you care about her, you're starting to treat her special" she seethed.

She smiled and sat on my laps, looking at me seductively.

"Or does she perhaps mean something more to you?" she asked.

"No, she's just here for the company contract, once I get that company, I'll be done with her" I blurted and she smiled.

"Good" she said feeling pleased and started stripping off her clothes.

I sat at a table beside the window, waiting patiently for Olivia.

I sighted her coming towards me with that grin that reaches ears.

"Oh please tell me I'm not late" she demanded and I scoffed.

"Has there ever been a day when Olivia Marshall is not late?" I asked and she chuckled.

"Now start talking" she urged happily before continuing "and yeah, help me talk Damon into letting me stay in your mansion" she smiled.

I rolled my eyes and lay my head on the table in frustration.

"You'll be shocked when you hear all I have to tell you" I said.

"Will I be in coma after hearing it?" she asked and I chuckled.

"So start" she ordered.

"Leave me Kath, let me go!" Olivia groaned, trying to free herself from my grips.

After telling her everything, she says she's going to go teach Damon a lesson for shattering her bestie's dreams and I've been holding her back.

"What are you going to do to him if you go there?" I asked

"I'm going to give him a piece of my mind and beat some sense into his thick skull" she groaned.

We were now the trending video in the café because everyone's gaze is on us.

After coaxing Olivia not to go, we sat back down.

"Are you sure you can do this?" she asked and I nodded.

"And here I was, thinking my bestie was the luckiest girl on planet after she met a billionaire who I thought fell in love with her" she sighed and I smiled.

"After he gets the company he wants, I'll use the money he pays to rent a better apartment for us both" I said.

"I'm always here for you okay?" she shad and I nodded.

She pulled me into a hug.

"I have to go now because I just took a few minutes leave from work" she said.

"Hope you'll be fine" she asked

"Yeah"

We hugged for one last time and she turned to leave.

"And don't hesitate to come back home if that asshole crosses his limits " she yelled from the asentrance and I chuckled.

Gosh! I totally forgot to order us something

But considering she works at a restaurant, no qualms.

I ordered French fries and ate.

"Olivia" someone called and I looked up to see Ken.

"Oh hey " I smiled.

He took a seat and ordered himself juice

We chatted for quite some time, exchanged numbers and I left.

I stood by the roadside, eating for a cab.

"Hey" someone called, running towards me and I arched an eyebrow.

He caught up with me and I breathed out an "oh" when I recognized him.

It was the waiter from the party.

"Hey" he said.

"It's you" I said and he smiled.

"I'm Lance"

"Katharine" I said and we shook hands.

After exchanging numbers with him, I hailed a cab and left.

It doesn't hurt to make new friends.

I arrived home.... not home... the mansion to be precise. It's not my home.

Without ringing the bell, I went in to meet Damon and Piper kissing.

I coughed so they could notice me and they did.

"Have some respect and do it in the bed room" I seethed and went up to my room.

I freshened up and lay on my bed still full from the French fries I ate in the café.

The wind howled, rattling the window screens. I got up and closed the windows.

It does seem like it's going to rain heavily.

The thought of it gave me goose bumps and I swallowed hard.

I closed my windows and doors and made sure the room was safe.

Thunder roared and I jumped in fear.

Soon I heard the rain begin to fall heavily with thunder and lightning accompanying so I ran to hide.

I couldn't help but wonder why Katharine kept making noises from her room.

She screams softly and it disturbs me.

I left my room and headed to hers.

I knocked on her door softly but there was no reply.

I tried going in but the door was locked.

"Katharine. Open the door" I shouted as loud as I could and I heard a little gasp come from the room.

"Are you alright Katharine?" I asked but no reply.

"Katharine. Open the door" I demanded.

"No" I heard her tiny voice. It was shaky and hoarse.

Wait! Is she actually scared? Scared of the rain?

"Open the door Katharine; you don't have to be scared" I said, trying to coax her to open the door.

"Just open the door" I hit the door hard and I heard her faint gasp.

She's never going to open the door like this.

I sighed and went to get the spare key from the store room.

I came back and opened the door.

I entered to find her bed empty.

Where could she be?

"Katharine?" I called got no reply.

Thunder roared and I heard her gasp. Wait! Did I hear correctly where the gasp came from?

I turned around and squatted down to see Katharine under the bed, trembling like crazy.

I wanted to laugh but she'd kill me if I even let out a chuckle.

She's so scared and her facial expression is.... God! So funny!

"Come here." I said and she shook her head so fast I thought her head was going to fall off if she was not careful enough.

"I'm here with you, nothing's going to happen" I assured trying to take her hand in mine but she flinched.

"What if the lightening strikes the windows and... and..." she panted softly and I admired her expression.

She's so cute. I thought and immediately froze. "Where did that come from?"

"Shhh nothing's going to happen to you" I said and took her hand.

I slowly brought her out and carried her, bridal style.

She curled up in my arms and I held her tight.

I took her to my room and held me tight when she saw my room.

My windows were open and we could see the rain and thunder in a blur.

"Shhh" I cooed her and kissed her forehead.

I gently lay her on the bed and closed the windows, fell the curtains, locked the door and dimmed the lights.

I lay beside her and pulled her close to me with my hands wrapped tight around her protectively.

Her body relaxed in my arms and soon she was fast asleep.

I tried admiring her more as she slept but my eyelids got heavy and I slept off.

I groaned softly as I pressed closer into the warm pillow.

Wait! My pillow isn't this hard!

I slightly opened an eye and saw Damon breathing softly with his hands wrapped tight around me.

Gosh! How did I get here?

I sat up slowly and sighed.

The only thing I remember is "it was raining and I hid under my bed because of the thunder and

Damon cane to take me to his room and... And that's all I remember.

I gasped softly when I noticed I was just in my singlet and the sweater I wore was discarded on the floor.

Did we... Did we have... I looked over to him and gasped again when I saw his bare chest.

He was just in his briefs.

Why's my sweater on the floor? And why's he just in his brief?

That means we... Oh my God!
