Xavier smiled as he walked to his room and looked at his reflection in the mirror. His fingers ruffled his hair, and he wondered if he should get a new hairstyle. Striding sluggishly to his bed, he fell on it.

Ari…

Xavier thought, a smirk on his lips. He could not get her out of his head after that heated night of passion. He had not done something so wild before; sleeping with someone he didn\'t know for the first time. It was crazy.

After that day, he had intended to forget about her, but after seeing her application letter to work in his company, he couldn\'t get her off his mind.

He wanted to have a taste of it again, but this time, with her name on his lips, that was if she was up for it. But judging from how she had acted, he wasn\'t sure she wanted to do it again.

.

Xavier was brought back from his thoughts when his phone rang. He swiped when he saw the caller;

\'\'Melissa… \'\'

\'\'hey, babe, you up for some party tonight?\'\' Melissa asked. He could hear her tossing things about in the background.

\'\'No love, I have another appointment. \'\'

\'\'Hmm, a new girl?\'\' Melissa asked.

\'\'Mm, yeah. Kinda.\'\'

Melissa was quiet; \'\'Okay, make sure not to get any STDs. See ya!\'\' The call ended with a beep. Melissa breathed out as she tossed her phone on her bed and continued selecting the shoes she wanted to put on. She really liked Xavier, but she was not sure for how long she could put up with his frivolousness. It was a friends\' with benefits relationship, but sometimes it gets to her. She was not sure how long she could take it.

Maybe she was foolish for thinking that one day he would fall in love with her. Melissa scoffed;

Should she end it already? It\'s been years now. If he didn\'t like her since, what would make him like her now?

…

Ari put on her nude lipstick as she smacked her lips, her eyes staring at her reflection. She loved red lipsticks a lot, but tonight; she wanted nothing that would draw his attention to her. In fact, she wanted to appear as ordinary as possible.

She could have worn a pretty dress, but Ari put on a blouse over a skirt, and wore heels and not forgetting her glasses. Apart from the fact that she was holding a simple purse, she looked exactly how she would have looked when going to work.

Just that moment, her phone vibrated on the vanity table; picking it up, Ari looked at the expected caller, then she swiped;

\'\'I\'m outside your house now. Are you done?\'\' Xavier asked.

\'\'Yes, yes I am, I\'ll be out in a minute, \'\' Ari ended the call and picked up her purse and walked out of her house.

Outside, Xavier was leaning by his car. A white Maserati. She wasn\'t sure of the model, but it looked really flashy and current. He was wearing a white shirt that had the first two buttons unhooked, and she could see his shiny gold chain that rested on his toned chest.

He had his hands tucked in his pockets and a smile, or maybe a smirk, on his chin. Ari did not stare long enough to detect. He was looking charming tonight, and she was sure if she stared at him longer that she should, she might do something that she would regret badly.

Xavier stood straight when he saw her approach, a chuckle brewing in his throat. If she dressed like that to make sure she didn\'t look attractive, she had got it all wrong, because the more she tried to appear unappealing, the more he wanted her.

\'\'You look beautiful, Ari. \'\' Xavier commented, and Ari looked at him with a smile;

\'\'You don\'t look bad either.\'\' Like her ex, the men she hated the most were guys who took out time to look extra good and breathtaking. They were never, and I repeat, never faithful, always cheating and breaking women\'s hearts.

She knew he knew he looked good. He was born very handsome, and then he took out time to make himself perfect. 

He was hot like hell. And he knew he was. And most girls would not be able to resist his charm. But man, this girl right here would resist till the end. If she knew who he was in the first place, she wouldn\'t have made that mistake.

Ari smiled and got into the car when Xavier open the door for her. He got in after her and drove off. Ari did not even ask where they were going. She just buried her eyes in her phone as she waited for their destination.

\'\'Did I do anything wrong?\'\' Xavier asked after the car had been quiet for minutes and Ari lifted her head to look at him;

\'\'No, not at all. Why do you ask?\'\'

\'\'Cause you appear really distant, you don\'t even want to have a conversation with me.\'\' he had this soft way of speaking that would make the strongest of hearts melt but Ari was not buying it. She just smiled;

\'\'You said nothing to start a conversation, did you?\'\'

Xavier chuckled; \'\'Well, that\'s true. But it appears as though you don\'t want to be here.\'\'

Man, you literally made me accept!

Ari screamed internally, but she smiled at him; \'\'I\'m sorry if I seem that way, so what do you want me to say? We are not close, so we have nothing to talk about.\'\'

Ari said;

\'\'That\'s right. But I want to know you. Tell me about yourself?\'\' Xavier asked and Ari mentally rolled her eyes;

Talking about herself was the very last thing she wanted to do at that moment. And thankfully her phone rang;

\'\'Excuse me, I have to take this call.\'\' Ari had not been this excited about a call in her entire life.

Swiping, she picked the call.

\'\'Dad, how are you?\'\' It was her father, 

\'\'I\'m doing great, Ari, and you? Your mom said you got a new job, you didn\'t care to tell me.\'\'

\'\'I was going to tell you later. It skipped my mind. \'\'

\'\'Don\'t worry, I understand.\'\'

\'\'Did you guys finalize everything?\'\' she asked after a few seconds of silence,

\'\'Yes, we have. Ari, I\'m really sorry for…\'\'

\'\'Dad, it\'s not your fault. It did not work, and that is it. Not everything works the way we want it, I don\'t blame you, so do not blame yourself.\'\'
