Chapter 23
jack
Damn man who follows me everywhere I go. Who are you kidding, Jack? You're loving seeing Alex following you around like a trained puppy! We get home and I run out of the car, barely having time for Alex to park it. I couldn't be late at all.
I might as well ask him to work out with me... Um, better not. Because the kind of workout I want to have with him involves a bed and both of them naked.... My panties are flooded again. I take off my clothes quickly and take a shower to see if it would calm my body that was throbbing with desire. I had to control myself, I couldn't act like a hormone-ridden teenager.
"Jack…Jack…if you keep this up, you're going to have to leave the job before you even start!" I say to myself.
I quickly get out of the shower, dry my hair, quickly wrap the towel around my body and run back to the bedroom. I get the biggest shock when I find Alex lying in my bed, comfortable, as if he owns it. What a sexy man, my God!
“What are you doing in my bed? I ask angrily.
— Oh, nothing! He says shrugging his shoulders. “I'm just a little rested.
"I know, and you had to lie in my bed?" I question him and deep down inside I liked knowing he was in my bed so when I lay down I would smell his perfume and 'Yes' I'm getting sick of this man.
“Well, if you want to sleep with me, I'll be very happy,” he says, winking at me, slapping his hand on the mattress, teasing me.
"Can you leave my room so I can change?" I feign sweetness when I speak.
“Oh, but I want to stay here,” he says teasingly, watching you change.
— Alex, how old are you? Fifteen? I tease him and he flashes a sexy smile.
“I have twice as much.” he teases. “Now, if you want me to be fifteen, then I will be,” Alex says teasingly.
- Idiot! Now be nice and get out of my room - I ask looking at him.
- Fine! he says raising his hands up in surrender. - If you insist. It didn't cost anything to try.
“Come on, Alex, I have to go to work. - He leaves the room.
“Okay, we can go,” I warn.
I remembered that I had to put water and food for Starlet, and I leave Alex alone, go to the cupboard, get the food, put it in the bowl, make sure there's enough water and go back to the living room.
“Now, can we go? he says and I nod in agreement.
I grab my backpack, close the house and head to the car. As soon as we enter, my cell phone rings, and when I look at it, I end up groaning in frustration. I answer grudgingly.
"Speak up, Michael, what do you want?" - I question him pissed off with this man.
- You're late! He says charging me. And I hate charges.
“I know I'm late, Michael, I don't need anyone calling to tell me this,” I grumble and notice that Alex has one eye on me and the other on the wheel.
“Jack, you know I'm worried about you. he says in a protective tone.
“Look here, Michael, listen to what I'm going to tell you: 'I don't need protection and I don't need anyone bossing me around either!” I say to Michael angrily.
I look at Alex, showing that it worked for him too. He doesn't care and I think... "Men".
'Jackeline, my little pup, could you give me the address of your service?' Alex asks with affection and I'm pissed off.
“Just a moment, Michael,” I ask, look at Alex and reply:
“Take Third Avenue and go straight.” I'm giving Alex the correct address while I listen to Michael's bullshit.
"Jackeline, who are you with?" He asks me and I get possessed. Does he think he owns me? Underdog!
“You don't care, Michael,” I say, pissed at him.
“You're mine, Jackeline! he says possessively.
- I'm not yours! I yell and that's when I hear the car stop. Alex takes my cell phone and says:
“Listen, you idiot, Jackeline isn't yours at all,” Alex says angrily.
I hear Michael yelling that I'm his girlfriend and all that bullshit, Alex just responds saying that if he gets close to me, he'll see him.
— Oh, another thing, you idiot, Jackeline has a boyfriend, yes! And, it's me! Alex speaks in a cold tone and hangs up in Michael's face.
"Damn, did I have to say you're my boyfriend?" I question him.
"Who's this Michael guy?" he asks and I notice in his voice that he was possessed.
“Alex, you don't care. I grumble, wanting to change the subject.
"Yes, I'm interested," he says very seriously. "Was he your boyfriend?"
I look at him and notice that his hands on the steering wheel are almost white from squeezing it so hard. His gaze back to the direction and I knew he wouldn't settle down until he satiated his curiosity.
"Come on, Jackeline, haven't you answered me yet?" - I question.
“Alex, I'm not in the mood to answer you,” I grumble.
“Jackeline…we've already talked about this,” he says carefully, but losing patience.
— I already said that I won't answer anything. I shrugged my shoulders.
I look out the window and see the movement on the street.
“Jackeline, please don't make me put you on my legs and give you a good slap.
Now it's his turn to grumble and he would find it very cute if I weren't so possessed with him. The threat he just made got me excited all over again.
"Gee, I want to see you try!" — I provoke him. — For God's sake, woman! He lets out a sigh. — There's no way you can answer a damn question I ask you? — Okay, okay! — I decide to give in for the moment, when I see that we were already arriving at my work. — So, I'm waiting — he says impatiently.
“What the hell, Alex! He's just a friend. Pleased? I answer and we finally arrive at the battalion.
- I'm not! he says simply, calmer now and parks the car.
— There, I'm here! I said quickly, opening the door. Before leaving, I feel a tug on my arm, which makes me sit on the bench again. Alex looks at me and says.
- Where do you think you're going? He asks me seriously, and I look at him more seriously.
"Alex, I need to go..." I declare trying to leave, but he doesn't let me, takes my arm and says:
“You didn't answer my question, Jackeline,” Alex says seriously.
“Okay, you're right.” I let out a sigh.
"So, tell me, what happened between you and your asshole friend?" he asks and I notice in his tone that he was jealous of Michael and I thought that was cute, but I didn't say anything.
— Well, it was no big deal... we don't have and never had anything serious! — released at once.
"And why does he think so?" Alex asks me.
“We've only kissed once, and he thinks he has rights over me. I reply. Alex didn't like to hear that.
"Do you guys still go out?" Alex asks angrily.
“Alex, that's none of your business,” I say, getting tired of all this talk about Michael.
“Jackeline, don't test me,” he says, running his hands through his hair, I think he's frustrated.
“Look, Alex, I have to go in,” I warn.
"You won't go in until you give me a complete answer!" — He says pissed at me and I think again that he's jealous of Michael is so cute, I think smiling, I look at my watch and I'll tell you right away.
- What else do you want to know? If we fuck? If that's the question, the answer is no. Pleased?! “I was really late.
"Now you'd better go, you're already late." Alex says as if nothing happened.
- Ah that's great! - I ironically looking at the clock and there it was showing how late I was already out of time. — Why am I late? — And before I get out of the car, I grab my backpack, slamming the car door.
“Jackeline!” Alex calls out to me again.
“What do you want, Alex? I'm very late! - I remember.
"Just to say that you look so beautiful, angry, little marrentinha!" He winks at me and I roll my eyes.
"You're an asshole!" I say, turning to enter the battalion, but I can still hear him laugh.
"But this asshole here you like!" he yells, and it's true, I liked this handsome asshole, but I wouldn't confess to that.
— Bye, Alex! — I wave goodbye and enter the building getting ready for another day of training and asking God for a lot of patience.
I run into the building, Nicholas complains about my tardiness, I don't care and head for the training arena. I start doing my training and when I see Michael coming towards me I end up changing locations and training somewhere else.
I honestly didn't feel like listening to him declare his undying love for me. Yes, I'm a heartless "Bitch", who's tired of saying she doesn't want anything to do with him.
