The next morning
I woke up only to find Ruby up and making me a coffee. "So where did you get to, last night?" I asked, annoyed.
"Darryl…or Brax as he likes to be called, took me up to his apartment, we talked, I met his brother Heath and I came home" She replied with a knowing look. "Brax's nice and all but he asked a lot of questions about you…I told him, I couldn't tell him much because of your work, but he really wanted to know all about you. Heath was really nice. He is totally different to Brax. He walked me home" She blushed and smiled. I nodded before getting dressed into my jogging clothes and heading out to clear my head, but not before stopping off at Braxton residents. I walked into the messy club only to be met with a member of the bar staff.
"Miss, you can't be in here, you have to leave" He told me quickly as I head towards the stairs leading to Brax's apartment.
"I'm Charlotte Buckton, I can be where ever the hell I want" I dropped my name and a smile before heading upstairs. I knocked on the door viciously as I waited for an answer.
"Well if it isn't Charlie Buckton" a cocky, arrogant voice opened the door. I looked at the chiselled torso, tattooed chest and towel-covered waist before looking at that smirk. "To what do I owe your visit?" He asked, letting me in.
"Just came to tell you to stay away from my sister!" I warned him.
"I'm not the one you should be warning, that would be my little bro you should be warning…why you want us to stay away? She bad news is she?" He tried to make a joke.
"Look, just stay away from her and don't talk to her again!" I told him.
"Look, how about tonight, you, me…we go out? I'll pay, all you have to do is show up being beautiful, as usual and we can talk. I promise you, we'll have a good time" He tried to sweet talk me.
"I would rather get hit by a bus than go out with you" I walked closer and whispered in his ear.
"I can get someone to arrange that gorgeous" He whispered back.
"Is that a threat?" I asked shocked.
"No, simply a joke…obviously lawyers don't understand jokes anymore" He smirked before heading into his rather large kitchen. "Now, is there anything else I can help you with Ms Buckton cause if not I would like to get changed out of this towel, unless you want to watch me get changed" His smirk was my downfall.
"I'll be talking to you later, I have some questions on a new case that has come up" I glared at him with my ice blue eyes.
"I look forward to your visit Charlie" He chuckled as I left. God that guy got under my skin! Why was he so annoying yet irresistible all at the same time! I hated him so much!
