Undeniable Attraction

Chapter 7

I was sitting in the sitting room munching popcorn while watching a movie on Netflix when Kel came in.

I was thinking he was going to walk away but he walked up to me dropping a package on the table and

then left. I opened the package to find the latest iPhone and I'm not going to lie and say I wasn't excited

because I am. He was probably embarrassed by the one I was currently using but I didn't care, I've

always wanted an iPhone and he got me one.

I went upstairs to his room knocking on the door to gain his attention, he opened the door and I

realized. His tie and suit were gone and the first three buttons were off. His body was amazing I

wouldn't deny that even if it was just a glimpse I caught.

"Are you just going to stand there staring at me or you have something to say?" He asked irritated.

"I just want to say thanks for the gift," I answered and he just frowned.

"It's not a gift, I just gave it to you to replace the sorry excuse you have for the phone." He said with his

usual expression

"Whichever reason you bought it thanks."

I transferred all the contacts on my old phone to my new one. Since yesterday I've been getting calls

and texts from relatives and colleagues that wanted to find out if I was truly engaged to Kel, most of

them were not pleased but I have to act as if we were in love.

There was an article about us this morning on the net with yesterday's picture and the one I posted on

Instagram. The writer didn't seem to buy our relationship, questioning why I was in the picture now only

when he disclosed our engagement, some comments on my post showed that some weren't also but

some were out of jealousy. I had acquired some haters from fans of his who thought I didn't deserve

him and I had also acquired some fans too.

I went to my room, its walls were white but there were some touches of brown here and there. There

was a massive bed in the centre and that was what I loved most about the room, not the chandelier or

massive TV or the dressing room or vanity table just the bed. I was about to take a nap when I heard a

knock on the door, I hated when someone interrupts my sleep. I walked up to the door and opened it to

find Kel. What does he want now?

"We have to go over the questions," he said answering the question I had asked internally.

He was dressed in a white tee-shirt and grey joggers. I could make out his abs from the tee and it

looked like his muscles would pop out anytime soon.

I opened the door wider for him to enter and he sat on the white couch while I sat on the bed opposite

him.

"So the first question would be how we met."

"Okay, so what have you got?" I asked and he frowned.

"So you don't remember how we met?" He asked and I could detect a bit of annoyance in his voice.

" Is it how we met three days ago or years ago?" I asked and he looked at me like I had asked a dumb

question so I decided to stick to the later.

"The next question is when we started dating and how long we've been dating." He continued

"So we'd say in high school, how about how long we've been dating?"

"We dated for a year in high school but broke up because we couldn't handle a distance relationship

but we got united three months ago in my dad's office." He replied.

It was as if he had gone through every possible question and we had to go through our answers

carefully. When we were done he warned me not to ruin it and I scoffed. I could be a good actress but

him that hardly smiles and has the same cold expression I'd like to see him act in love but then he had

fooled me once he could do so again with the crowd.

That night Rosie called and was going all crazy about the engagement and Sean's proposal. I was so

happy for her because they deserved each other and they were going to be together.

"I told you Kel Adrios would make a good husband and this whole time you were acting like you weren't

dating and kept your engagement from me." She sounded a bit hurt but she was still excited and had

this I knew it tone.

"I'm sorry Rosie, it's just that he wanted us to keep our relationship a secret and that's why I couldn't tell Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

you," I said going over the lies we came up with.

"It's okay, so when is the wedding, do I get to be your chief bridesmaid?" she asked excitedly.

"Of course," I replied laughing, she was so excited for me you wouldn't know she was engaged herself.

"Wow, this still feels like a dream. How do you feel being engaged to Kel Adrios?" She asked

How do I feel? I wasn't happy about the marriage situation but because of it, I can pay for my dad's

surgery and medicine.

"It's nice, really nice," I answered

"You're really lucky. A lot of girls would love to be in your shoe but you're still his."

"I know right, I've already got some haters."

"They can hate all they want but you're still the one he's getting married to"

"Yeah"

"So do you think I can come over to your house, I would love to see him and the house."

I remembered the rule and as much as I wanted to see her maybe not here.

"I don't know Rosie, he's busy most of the time but I can send you pictures of the house. Now enough

of Kel and I, how did Sean propose to you?" I asked excited to hear the story

She told me about it all and I knew she was smiling like crazy when answering all of my questions.

They were going to get married in three months and I was truly happy for her.
