Love me for Eternity

Chapter 2

The next day I woke to the blinding sun creeping its way into my room though the parted blinds. With a groan I rolled over and glared at the clock blinking its numbers at me.

It's six AM.

Time to wake up and go searching for my next lover.

I didn't have a job but lived off of the millions of dollars my stupid useless father gave me.

He use to be governor, but died in office.

Not that the asshole really matters much now anyway.

Regrettably, I swung my body out of bed and stumbled into the bathroom and made a beeline to the toilet.

I unbuttoned my pajama pants and released the pressure on my bladder.

Yes, today was the day I find the one.

The next beautiful lady that will grace me with her love and surrender her lovely life to me.

With that thought in mind, I quickly spun around and jumped in the shower.

I was passing a comb though my hair when I saw it; the mesmerizing glint of the golden necklace hanging on my lamp atop my bedside table.

I stared at it though the mirror.

The sunlight bounced off of it and reflected around the room, bathing it in a caramel golden color; something that I had never seen before.

Mesmerizing.

That was what it was.

Mesmerizing.

Normally I didn't display my many gifts the woman who now loved me till the end of time gave me but this one was just too beautiful to hide.

To stow away in the numerous jewelry boxes that lined the upper shelf in my closet would have been an insult.

With one last decisive look, I nodded and left the necklace where it hung; over my lampshade.

The most breathtaking woman I usually find in the most obvious of places.

In the supermarkets, pharmacy's, in coffee shops, department stores, bookstores, anywhere really.

As long as you know how to charm them just right, you can get any girl you want.

I decided to go to the coffee shop first; I wasn't a regular per say but I knew the place well enough. I walked inside and strode right up to the counter staring at the menu board.

What did I want?

A regular coffee?

Flavored?

Perhaps I'll go with a medium hazelnut.

"One medium hazelnut coffee." I finally looked at the barista; she was gorgeous. And I do mean gorgeous.

She had a slightly tanned heart shaped face, vibrant emerald eyes, perfect made-for-kissing lips and beautiful long pink hair to frame it all in.

"Alright Sir." She spoke in a gentle yet clear voice.

I watched as she turned around to begin making my order.

Her body was attractive too.

Nice slim waist.

Sexy made-for-grabbing ass.

All too soon she turned back around with my coffee.

"That will be two dollars and seventy five cents." She gave me a small smile which I returned with an enticing smirk.

She blushed and I resisted the urge to lean in closer and-

"Gaara? Is that you?"

I looked to the side to see the unmistakable face of my older brother staring at me.

"Nice to see you too Kankurou." I spoke slowly, knowing the attractive barista was still listening.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw her cheeks turn darker as her eyes roamed over my body. Mentally I patted myself on the shoulder for opting to wear a black dress shirt and slacks.

Women were too easy to read and manipulate.

"It's been months!" He walked over with all the intensions of hugging me.

I scowled and half heartedly patted him on the back while he literally, hugged me.

"Yeah yeah I know." I backed out of his embrace and fixed my shirt. "Sorry about that." I sent the barista another smirk and pulled a five dollar bill out of my pocket. "Here you go." I made sure to hand her the bill in her hand, making sure my fingers brushed her own.

She, as predicted, blushed.

"Oh hey, you can pay for my coffee too bro." Kankurou winked down at me and grabbed his medium coffee off of the counter and walked towards a table in the back.

Ass.

What makes him think I want to pay for his fucking drink?

Sure, he gave me two of his credit cards to use and always pays them off on time; but still.

It was beside the bloody point.

"Keep the change." I met the barista's bright emerald eyes and followed my stupid older brother.

"Thanks for the coffee." He laughed and took a gulp as I pulled out the chair and sat opposite him. "So how have you been man? Why haven't you returned our calls?"

Before I answered him, I took a long, leisurely sip of my coffee.

I resisted the urge to smile.

It tasted damn good.

"Our?"

He groaned and rubbed his hands all over his face. "Yes yes! Our-Temari and me! You haven't called or dropped by."

"Oh." I shrugged.

Why should I go out of my way to see them?

They know where I live.

I haven't moved.

If they wanted to see me so damn bad they could have come over any time they liked.
