Thanks for the reviews...
Chapter 4
Layla burst into a fit of giggles as she watched her two friends act shell-shocked. Christian just grinned and looked at Layla. She was so beautiful. He let go of her hand and let her walk through the door, shutting it behind him. Kelly was the first to respond.
"El, you just broke up with Cody, I don't think your wise to jump into another man's bed." This made Layla stop laughing. She looked at Kelly and raised an eyebrow.
"Really, just because I was in the same room with an incredibly fit man, don't mean I slept with him." She quickly covered her mouth before turning scarlet. Fit? Really?
Christian's grin got bigger
"You think I'm fit? Well you ain't so bad yourself." Was what he said in return to her remark. She spun around and marched up to him. She was bout to tell him off but she gave up and went and sat on one of the chairs.
"So what happened last night, I mean with Cody..." Alex asked
Layla looked up at Christian not knowing what to say. He looked at her and she nodded, meaning that he could tell them what happened. The four of them sat in the large hotel room as Christian explained what happened. When he got to the part about Cody slamming her against the wall, she whimpered at the thought of it. Christian scooted closer to hold her hand. He felt her suddenly relax.
"I'll kill that mother fu.." Alex started but didn't get to finish.
"NO!, I'm gonna deal with this." Christian stood up. Layla reluctantly let go of his hand. christian looked down at her.
"Well go get your stuff then." Christian said, smug.
"Why do I need my stuff?" Layla questioned.
"Because your moving in with me."

Christian carried all of Layla's bags to his room and chucked her the key to let him in. She tried to take a bag away from him but he insisted. This just made her smile. Cody would never do that for her, in fact, he would probably make her carry the bags. They entered the room and Christian placed the bags on the bed. As he walked past he brushed his hand over the lower part of Layla's back, making her blush. She loved the feeling she got when he touched her, it was like someone had sent an electrical current through her body. She plopped herself on the sofa and stretched her legs. Christian came back a moment later with two mugs of tea.
"Milk and two sugars?" He asked, knowing already that he was right.
"Yeah, how did you know?" Layla asked, had he been stalking her while she made tea?
He just winked at her before taking a sip then setting the mug down.
"Layla?, Can I ask you a question?" He asked and she nodded.
"Can I take you out tonight?" He looked into her eyes and saw the excitement flash when he spoke.
"Sure!, That would be amazing!"
"Great! Consider it a date!"
* * * * *
"Great! Consider it a date!" was all Cody needed to hear. He had listened to the conversation they had and he didn't want to hear anymore. He had no right to go anywhere near her. She was still his, no matter what she said. It wasn't finished until he said so.

Christian was in the kitchen when he heard Layla shout.
"Do you mind if I use the shower before we go out?"
"Sure."
He heard the shower turn on and he grabbed his phone. He scrolled through all the numbers until he found 'Alex' He pressed the little green icon and waited for him to pick up. After what seemed like an hour, Alex decided to answer.
"Hey man, Whatsup?" Alex asked.
"Look Ry, I need to ask you and Kel something, put it on loudspeaker." He heard Ale tapping on the phone and then heard a very excited Kelly.
"Right, I'm taking Layla out tonight and I really want to ask her out, but I don't know if I should..."
He heard Kelly and Alex whispering before one of them piped up to answer his question.
"Yeah, Go for it, the worst thing she cold do is reject ya."
"Thanks guys, well I better go get ready, I'll call you later to tell you how it goes."
With that he hung up. He walked into the bedroom and was about to slip on a black button up shirt when he heard Layla shout from the bathroom.
"Chris, could you go into the front pocket of my case and take me in the shampoo?"
Christian found her red suitcase and pulled open the first pocket. Out he dug the small green bottle and made his way into the room opposite. The shower was a walk n one and when Layla heard the door open she opened the glass door to the shower and popped her head out, along with a leg, just to tease him.
The sight of her tanned leg dripping with water made him drop the bottle and stare in awe. He scrabbled to pick it back up again before practically throwing the shampoo at Layla. She squealed and recoiled into the shower before the hard plastic smacked her in the face.
After drying her hair and putting on some makeup, she left the bathroom in only her underwear. She found Christian asleep on the sofa. She smiled softly before she tip-toed her way to the suitcase, where she quietly pulled out a little black dress and heels. As she slipped the dress over her legs, she heard a voice.
"Are you trying to kill me or something?" Christian said from the sofa, eyes half-open. Layla laughed and quickly hid her crimson cheeks.
"Why would I try to kill you?"
"A single hot woman, who I just saw in the shower is now sitting in her underwear, seductively pulling on a dress. And I'm not allowed to touch."
"No-one said nothing about not touching." Layla muttered. Christian groaned at the thought of her and made his way to the bathroom to splash his face in cold water.
