SARAH POV

“So Mrs. Hudson? My dear Darling wife.” Hearing a playful voice I stiffen. I know now where it’s going.

Damit.

Turning around I found him behind the door and closed it with one kick and locked it.

I visibly froze looking at him. 'Why am I suddenly nervous? I should be angry at him, don’t I? I thought.

He started taking steps towards me like a predator and I was glued to my thinking about what to do?

In one shift he takes my rubber band out from my hair and lets them fall freely.

He intentionally touched my cheeks with his and his row beard, which prick in my soft skin, like a needle.

Damn, he needs to shave.
'But you like this.' My subconscious mocked.
And I can't deny, I do like this look on him.
He is looking hot. I can't take my eyes off him.

“So Mrs. Hudson, how are you doing?” He said, caging me in his arms and murmuring in my ears.

I shivered at his sudden touch. His fingers creased my bareback. I know that bastard knowingly teasing me. He could have touched my upper back but no he wants to touch my open area due to the crop top. I am regretting wearing this now.

I hold his shoulders little to balance myself. 'This man can make my lags jelly at any point in time.' I thought

Looking into his eyes I said, “Oh, so you remember me?”

“You are the only one I can't forget.” Said looking back into my eyes. 

I was searching for some lie in his eyes but I found none.

“Why are you doing this Sean? What do you want?” I asked a little annoyingly. His behavior is bothering me nowadays.

I don’t want to get attached to him and later regret it. I can't take any heartbreak. I have had enough in my life now I don’t want any more drama in my life. I want peace, that's all.

“I want to take you on a date. Can you come with me?” He asked, ignoring what I said.

“Sean please don’t do this,” I said huffing tiredly.

“I will give all the answers you want. Please say yes.” He again requested.

'I look back at him and thought one date won't harm me. So the person who stole my first kiss will be my first date as well.
I smile thinking.

“Ok!” I said, nodding my head.

Giving a bright smile he said, “Be ready by 5 pm.” He said tightening his hold on me, pressing me more to him as if there was space left in between.

“Don’t you think five o clock is too early for a date?” I asked knitting my eyebrows.

“Well not really. Just be ready on time, that's it.” He said getting a little excited like a child.

I giggle looking at him and nod in agreement again.

“Ok, now I have to go to the office. I have a few important meetings to attend to see you in the evening love” Saying he kissed me near to my lips and left the room. I stood there dumbfounded looking at his retiring figure.

'This man is unpredictable.' I thought, shaking my head.

After I took my laptop I thought to finish some work and sat on the couch. Sometime later someone knocks on the door.

"Come in!” I said without looking up.

I felt someone sat beside me and I looked back and saw Nathan and Sam looking at me apologetically.

Ignoring them I again went back to my work as if they were not present in the room.

“Sarah hears me out,” Sam spoke pleadingly.

“You have all ears,” I said, still my fingers working on the keypad.

Taking my laptop from my hand Nathan spoke “Sarah I know you are hurt but trust me that’s the last thing we want to do in our life.” He spoke looking guilty.

"It’s not like we want to hide anything from you but it happened so fast that we could not get time to inform you,” Sam said, still looking at her palms.

I was just looking at them keeping my hands on my knees listening to their explanation. I know they will never hurt me intentionally but still, they shouldn't have hidden the things.

“So since how long is this going on behind my back?” I asked, raising my one brow.

“Well you always knew I had feelings for her but she never reciprocated but finally she agrees. A day before.”Nathan replied, smirking at Sam and she became crimson after hearing him.

“I never knew you can blush Sam?” I teased her a little by looking at her pink cheeks.

“Oh, you have no idea what else she can do,” Nathan spoke looking at her biting his inner cheeks.

Aww, they both are too cute. I thought.

Ignoring Nathan’s comment she looked at me and said “Can you please forgive us?” getting up from her place she sat beside me holding my hand.

"I was never mad at you guys. I was just hurt. You know I so wanted you two to be together for long and when you hid this from me I just got hurt.” I said pouting to both of them. They are my best friends and I can't stay angry at them for a longer period.

“Sorry it won't happen again,” Sam said, smiling.

“Are we good now?” Nathan said and I nodded in agreement.

"Now tell us what’s going on here? Sean’s Parents' behavior it's all shocking for us.” Nathan said, a little annoyed.

Shrugging my shoulders I said“ I don’t know. He said he will tell me on our date.”
                                 
"Come again?” Sam asks as if she heard something wrong.

“Yeah, I am going on a date with him today,” I said nodding my head in yes.

"But why?” Nathan asked again, irritated.

“Nathan I want to hear his side of the story too. I don’t know why he is doing this. I thought he wanted a divorce but he asked me otherwise. I want to know the facts.” I said firmly.

“Yes, you should hear his story too,” Sam spoke in support.

I smile at him and nod.

"When are you guys going on a date?” Nathan asked.

“Today!” I said looking at my watch.

“Oh my god then get ready what are you doing?” Sam said getting up in a hurry.
