Purple Romance

Chapter 299: I wanted to do this...

''Andy?'' Betty shouted and two men stepped in front of her, ''what?'' she asked them and Godiva spoke.

''Do you want to leave by yourself or do you want to be accompanied by them?''

''Big sis. I am your sister; how could you support an outsider? That woman is a gold digger. Am I the only one who can see her true colours? She is seducing Andy because she wants his money'' Betty screamed at her sister but she merely turned around and said to the men.

''Send her out and make sure she doesn't come here again or you are fire''

''Big sis, big sis. Don't touch me, I will walk out myself'' Betty looked at the two men and walked away.

...

As soon as Andy closed the door to his office behind them, he pinned Paula to the door and looked at her face that had turned red and asked, ''why did you touch me earlier?''

''Huh? I I didn't want you to do something rush because of me'' Paula stuttered as his manly scent wisped through her nose.

''Paula, I don't think I can do this anymore. Can't you just love me back? I feel like I am going to go crazy because of you. I think I am doomed, Paula. I have never craved for someone like I crave for you. All my life, there was just two women who made me lose my cool. My ex whom I brought up with ten years ago and now you whom I love currently, but, I am even more crazy about you than I did for you. You make me want to be a good man. from that day at the caf when you mistakenly touched my hand, I felt it. I didn't think much about it back then, but now that I think about it. I think I must have felt attracted to you first.

That was why I couldn't go away. That's why I followed you around that night like a fool, trying to make sure that you were save. I am going to say this and relief myself. Did you know? While having breakfast with you for the first time in this restaurant, I realised that you were someone I wanted to get to know more about.

I admit, it was a childish move to have lied to you that we had sex but when I did I was able to see the real you, a woman who was surprisingly innocent and I couldn't bear to keep the lie going, so I confessed right away''

He took her hand and held it, crossing their fingers together as he continued to look into her eyes, ''I know, I have the tendency to be impulsive because of my underworld background but I will be better. I want to be a better man for you. Paula, I love you so much''

''Andy''

''Yes?''

''Can you shut up for a second?''

''Huh?'' Andy looked at her puzzled.

''I've wanting to do something but you just kept talking and I don't know what to do anymore''

''Huh? What what did you want to do earlier?''

''I wanted to do this'' she said and removed her heels before she stepped on his feet and wrapped her arms around his head, ''something like this'' she lifted her head to meet with his gaze before she kissed him.

Andy moaned and circled his arm around her waist, taking control of the kiss as he lifted her up, and she wrapped her legs around his waist. He continued to kiss her, pinning her further on to the door.

They remained in that position, kissing until they heard a knock on the door. Paula immediately flushed and let go but Andy simply stretched forth his hand and locked the door before he turned to her again.

Paula blushed and lowered her gaze as he continued to kiss her lightly on her nape, her cheeks, her forehead, her eyes, nose and finally capturing her lips again in a passionate kiss. This was their first kiss, not one they had because they were under pressure. But one they both willingly wanted so much. It was everything both of them had dreamed and anticipated it would be.

.

After closing from work, Paula walked out with Magdalene to find Andy already waiting for her by his car. She paused in her steps and took him in. He looked different. Handsome different. He had changed out of his outfit earlier on and was now wearing a purple shirt with the first two buttons undone and paired it with an ash tailor-made trousers.

''Simply dashing, right? Girl, you hit the jackpot with him right there''

''No, he hit the jackpot with me'' Paula said and tussled her hair sensually adding, ''am I being too narcissistic?''

''No, that's the way to go'' Magdalene said and hit Paula's butt as she walked away. The latter turned and looked at her before going over to Andy.

''Ready?'' Andy asked and opened the door for her.

''This isn't fair at all. You went back and cleaned up well but I'm still in my old outfit'' Paula said after getting into the car.

''I changed because I wanted to look perfect like you'' he rolled the opaque glass window up before he leaned closer to her.

''What are you going to do?'' Paula asked as she blushed.

''I missed you. while coming, all I could think about was kissing you'' he said and touched her lips, ''I like the feeling of your lips, and I think I am going to get addicted to wanting to kiss you''

''I have to go to the wedding tomorrow'' Paula said and Andy frowned and started the car.

''I suddenly don't want to go to the wedding I was invited to either. Should we just run away and turn off our phones so no one will reach us?''

''Lisa would kill me''

''Leslie would kill me too. It seems we can't avoid going to the wedding. How about we go on a date after the wedding tomorrow? I will pick you up from your venue after I am done with the wedding''

''Date?'' Paula looked at him with crimsoned face.

''Yes, today is our day one. I wanted to go on a date with you tonight but I am meeting with the groom tonight for a bachelor's party''

''Oh, it's that why you are so prepped up?'' Paula frowned and looked away.

''I prepped so much and came here first because I wanted to impress you. Other women don't matter to me. You are all I see, it has been that way for a while now and it will continue to be that way for a long time''

''Don't drink too much and make sure you call me when you are leaving there. Don't drink and drive''

''Seeing you act like a wife lecturing her husband, I suddenly feel lucky, that I have someone to nag and lecture me''

''Tsk!!''

''Don't worry. I will call you. I won't drink too much. I will call for a substitute driver after the party. Also, the people coming for the party are all married men, so no woman would be there''

'Okay, let's go then. I don't want you to keep them waiting'' her voice was gentle and soft.

..

After dropping Paula off, Andy drove away and Paula turned to their apartment. When she opened the door and entered, she saw Lisa coming out of her bedroom, dressed up.

''Woow, going where, little Miss?''

''Thank goodness, you are finally here. Paula, get dressed and we will go together'' Lisa said to her.

''What? Where are we going?'' Paula asked as she took off her handbag.

''Paige called me a few minutes ago. She is having a bachelorette party''

''But, isn't the wedding tomorrow itself?''

''It is but she wants to throw a party once before tomorrow. She said Jordan is throwing a bachelor's party and she is doing the same. That bastard Jordan is in for a lot of trouble. Paige asked me to call a few pimps for her. I will send the video to Jordan later on and have him sweat a little. What are you doing? Hurry, we don't have much time left''

''Oh, I will be right out'' Paula said and rushed into her bedroom. She stood in front of her closet confused for a while as to what to wear.

''Paula, hey, go in and take a quick shower, I will pick something for you to wear'' Lisa said after she entered into the room and saw Paula confused.

''Oh, pick a decent one'' Paula said to her.

''All you have are decent clothes, also, I wouldn't want Andy to kill me because I picked an outfit that made you look too sexy'' Lisa said as she looked into the closet. Her eyes settled on a purple dress that she bought for Paula one time. ''Tonight, you are going to accompany our darling'' she said and picked it out.

When Paula returned from the bathroom, Lisa pulled her to the dressing table and started doing her makeup for her.
