Chapter 1: A New Alliance
7:30 am
I woke up to the sound of the alarm. I rolled over onto her stomach and ignored it, because I knew it was for Gippal. Not me. Ever since uncle Rin found out that Gippal and I had been having sex , he fired me as his Personal Assistant and made me Buddy's assistant instead. He would have made me his secretary but I ruined that the first day. I was better as a personal assistant. And since I moved into Gippal's mansion with him, uncle Rin didn't expect me to sleep with Buddy.
Gippal removed his arm from around my waist with a hesitant sigh, I felt Gippal's side of the bed let up. I had begun to get use to him leaving early , even if I didn't like it And sometimes on Wednesdays he didn't have to get to work until 10. So he would stay in bed with me and we would both go to the office around 9. I heard the shower water start in his bathroom. I didn't call it mine because I didn't like using it. It brought back too many memories. Ones I try hard to forget.
I cuddles into the covers and inhales the smell of our scents meshed together. Like sunflowers, tangerines and his unique scent that I like to call a sunny day.. Its weird but that's all I could compare it to. A sunny day. I didn't want him to leave. This bed felt to empty. Its been feeling like this for a while. This whole house has at that. I liked it better when he was on Doctor ordered bed rest and I got to take care of him. I had him all to myself. He did do work but on a computer and I always interrupted some way or another. It was wrong but I couldn't help it. I was in love. I wanted him all the time.
Like now when I heard the shower stop. I peaked open her left eye to peak at him coming out with nothing but a towel wrapped loosely around his waist. Showing the area between his pelvic bones but not enough to show her favorite little friend. He used another towel to dry his damp spikes as he went into the walk-in closet. He returned a few moments later in his suit pants on and was buttoning up his loose dress shirt. His tie rested loosely around his neck.
" Gippal, do you have to go in early today?" I pouted. " Stay with me. We could always go in late. Say we got caught up" I didn't try to cover myself much with the sheet . The cover was at the end of the bed.
" Babe, you know I can't. " He told me as he approached the bed. He had already finished buttoning his shirt. "Today Rin has me meeting a few CEO's from a brother Corporation to discuss an upcoming meeting with some other CEO's in Paris."
" But we need to have a meeting and discuss a few things too." I coaxed in my sultry voice as he knelt on the bed to lean over and give me a kiss. I got hold of his tie and brought him deeper into the kiss.
For a moment I thought I had him because I felt myself laying back on the bed. I began to wrap my legs around his waist but he pulled away. I protested with a disapproving moan but it didn't stop him from unlocking my legs and standing up.
" That meeting will have to wait, Ri." He chuckled at my childlike pouting. I had my lip stuck out and my arms folded across my chest as I sat back up. He came over and gave me another quick peck as he id his tie. " But I promise that we may have to go into over time and have a very long discussion"
I reluctantly let him go with that promise because I would make sure he kept it. But when I tried to go back to sleep to get my extra hour, my cell rang. It was on my vanity so I had to get up and go over to it. Which was tiring. I had energy for fun with Gippal but not to answer my damn phone all the was across the damn room. And the anxious yet eerily familiar voice didn't make me mood any better.
" Rikku?" Nhadala's voice asked to make sure I answered because I hadn't said anything.
" What's wrong Nhadala? Gippal already left" I didn't try to add enthusiasm to my voice.
She's called my phone , trying to get in tough with Gippal on more than one occasion.
" Good. I wasn't looking for him. I wanted to talk to you." That surprised me. Causing me response to go up and octave with enthusiasm.
" What? Why?"
" Okay…I know I haven't seem too excited about you and Gippal's relationship but I think I've found a reason for you and I to join alliances. You and I care about Gippal and would do anything for his happiness. And I can't stand by and let this happen." Nhadala began to rant. I was a little drowsy and it didn't quite click so I had to ask again for Nhadala to get to the point.
" You and I have just found a new alliance. And I'll give you one word that's a good enough reason for both of us." Nhadala said again. And this time I was awake enough to understand but I couldn't fathom why me and this woman would EVER get along. Unless hell froze over.
" And this name would be?" I asked ready to hang up and go back for my extra hour of sleep.
" Lulu."
Well hell has frozen over. And satin is cussing up a storm over the damn thermostat.
And he better find a jacket because this is a damn good reason.
