Chapter Two
It had been three weeks since the encounter with Eames in that shop.
Though they didn't think it would affect them that much, the couple were fools.
Aridane was the worst, completly stunned at herself for behaving like that around him.
She was never like that when she first met him for the Inception job.
So why did everything change in a matter of minutes?
Arthur kept a close eye on her mobile, checking to see any text messages from Eames when she wasn't looking.
His work was the only place where he didn't think about Aridane or anything else, to dream was peaceful for him.
While she grew restless and grumpy at being a waitress, constanly shouted at by her manager and leered at by men she felt like quiting.
Until one day, everything would change for the better... and worse.
It was the usual Wednesday afternoon, a day Aridane bitterly hated.
Hotter than normal, the fans buzzed above the ceiling making a groaning noise that any second now it would break down.
So many costumers came in, demanding cold drinks, was a total nightmare for her.
She and one other worker filled up the cups, taking the money and giving them back the change.
Suddenly a screaming brat threw the orange juice all over her hair and clothes.
The mother found it extremely funny along with a few teenage boys that sat and watched the whole thing happen.
Quicker than the plague, the whole cafe laughed and pointed directly at Aridane.
Never in her whole life did she felt so angry that in her mind, everyone died a brutal and bloody death.
But when she closed her eyes tightly, the vision flashed came to live in the most shocking way.
Bodies were all over the floor with their chests ripped open leaving no organ left inside.
Aridane screamed at the top of her voice, reopened her eyes and slid backwards on the slippery floor.
The manager came storming in, rage was coarsing through his flushed chubby cheeks.
"What the hell is going on here?" He roared, making everyone stop laughing and stare at him in terror.
The brat pointed Aridane who was struggling to get up, still shaken from that terrifying vision.
"You, in my office. NOW!" He ordered as he stomped out with his heavy footsteps echoing to nothing.
Aridane puffed out a long sigh, igorned everyone's cruel looks at her and left to face the sacking of her job.
Nothing was enough to sasfiy the manager when she explained what happened, he was beyond giving her a second chance.
"You're fired, Aridane. Now get out of my cafe." He demanded, pointing at the door.
The boiling of her blood burned through her vains, anger pumped through making her heart beat even faster.
"You know what? Stuff your job up your ass!"" She screamed, tearing off the apron and threw at his face.
Before he spoke, Aridane slammed the door behind her and walked out of the cafe with her bag and jacket.
Putting it on, she slung the handle over her raging chest and pounded down the streets cursing under her breath.
People stared at her, like she was mad but it didn't stop or matter to Aridane.
It was only when she turned a corner, her body bumped against another with the stranger falling back on the ground and her laying on their chest.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't see you... there."
To her horror and surprise, Aridane was being held by the one man she was told to avoid.
Eames.
Wearing a rather posh suit, a rising smirk went across those beautiful lips that she couldn't stop staring.
"Mmm, you could've done a lot more damage if it wasn't me." He chuckled.
Like lighting, Aridane gathered herself off him while her body was alight with a burning passion that her mind cried to put out.
She watched him brush off the dirt, then looked deeply into her brown eyes.
"So what are you doing here anyway?" Aridane asked, folding her trembling arms.
"Oh I was just taking a afternoon walk. By the looks of things, you had a rough day." He replied, rising a cheeky eyebrow.
She gritted her teeth, not only a tease but a damn sexy one at that.
"Apart from a screaming brat throwing orange juice at me and losing my job in half a hour, it's been great thanks." She said, with added sarsaum.
Eames couldn't help but laugh so loudly that a few people stopped and looked at the strange man.
Aridane felt her cheeks burn with embassment, all she wanted to do is escape from him, have a hot shower and relax in Arthur's arms.
Arthur, his handsome face was enough to calm her down.
"Thinking about loverboy, are we?" He asked, snapping her out of her daydream.
"So what if I did? Now let me pass, Eames. I want to go home." She demanded.
"Oh I don't think you want to." He spoke dangerously, pushing her slighly against the wall.
Threatened yet exicted at the same time, Aridane felt his rough breathing tickling her face.
"What are you doing, Eames?" She asked, igorning the tremble in her voice.
"This," He replied, lowering his lips into hers.
At first, Aridane wanted to push him off and run like the wind.
But as the kiss deepened, everything changed.
She could feel his hands rub her arms up and down in a soft, relaxing montion.
The mumbling moans coming from both of them.
His body pressing against hers, a perfect fit or something forbidden or wrong?
It was Eames that pulled away, eyes still closed and sampling his lips with his tongue.
Aridane stood there, breathless and raving with hot desire.
Seconds later, Eames reopened his eyes to stare deeply into her orbs.
"You better go, Aridane." He spoke in a voice she couldn't reconize.
"What?" She asked with a frown.
"Go now before I may take you away from Arthur." He warned, his shoulders began to tease up.
Without a moment's pause, Aridane broke into a ran not once looking back.
Eames waitied until she was out of sight when he slammed his fists against the wall violently that blood started to ooze on his knucles.
Hissing with pain but igorned it, he walked on thinking furiously of what he had just done.
