As Nick carried Crystal to the hotel room, she never moved even a little. She snuggled closer to his warm chest and wrapped her arms around his neck. He looked down at her and chuckled.
Looks so cute now. He wondered.
"You bloody Nick. I want to kill you. I will throw you from the jet. You arrogant bossy man", Crystal yelled in her dream and frowned looking at Nick who was walking towards her.
"This is my dream yet he is controlling it", she cried dramatically. Nick came forward and kissed on her lips. Her eyes went wide. "Why does it feels so real?", she wondered and opened her eyes.
Nick was really kissing her. She pushed him away and glared at him. "How dare you kiss me?", she yelled. "It's for the whole time that I carried you and you treated me as your pillow", he shrugged.
Her cheeks turned red as she realized that everything was real and not her dream. "Did you have a dream about me? Should I make it come true?", he whispered seductively in her ears turning them red.
Nick smirked. "Stop making fun of me", she glared at him. He shrugged.
"Take rest. We have a party to attend in the evening", he said and walked out of the room. Crystal dropped on the bed hiding her face in the pillow due to extreme embarrassment. She screamed loudly.
"Why did I have to dream about that man? I'm going crazy. Someone please call psychiatrist", she said to herself and once again fell asleep. She slept almost the whole afternoon.
By 5 PM, Nick knocked on the door of her room. Crystal quickly sprayed her perfume and opened the door to see the handsome looking Nick standing there in beige three piece suit looking dashing.
Nick looked at her and kept looking. She looked like a some Goddess wearing a emerald green A line dress with off shoulder sleeves. There a deep slit on her dress showing her beautiful legs. She put on diamond earrings to go with the dress and a simple bracelet.
"Do I look ok?", she asked nervously. Okay? Girl, you are more than just ok. Nick thought looking at Crystal who was busy looking down at herself again and again. Nick cleared his throat.
"We are going there for them to stare at you", he said in a cold tone. She nodded then took her silver clutch and left with him. They got into their white limousine that took them to the party venue.
Nick walked out and extended hand for Crystal like a gentleman. Wow, he has this side too. I thought he only knows to annoy people. LOL. She thought and laughed inside. The flashes of the camera could be heard there.
Crystal followed Nick almost everywhere like some shadow. "You can go and enjoy. It's not necessary for you to stay here", Nick said to her slowly to which she nodded and immediately walked away without looking back at him.
Nick was talking to some of their business partners while keeping his eyes on Crystal who was busy eating desserts and talking to some woman. After he was done, he looked around for Crystal but she was no where to be seen.
Nick looked around but couldn't find her so he walked towards the hallway where he heard some voice. He immediately walked towards the source of noise and found Crystal beating some man in the corner.
She was kicking him and punched his face. Nick couldn't help but chuckle. He walked towards the man and Crystal and wrapped his arm around her waist in a protective manner.
The man immediately stood straight looking at Nick. "Mr. Knight, it's a pleasure to meet you", the man gave his best smile but Nick ignored him and turned to Crystal. "Sweetheart, are you alright?", Nick asked to her.
Crystal gave him a shocked look. "How dare you touch the daughter in law of Knights? Did you forget who I am or did you think that my brother got too merciful?", Nick glared at the man who was already shivering by the mere mention of Xavier.
"Please. I'm sorry. I didn't know she was your fiancee. Please have mercy. Please don't say anything to Mr. Xavier Knight. I beg you", the man knelt down immediately and begged Nick and Crystal.
Nick held Crystal's hand and walked out without responding. "When did I become your fiancee?", she asked once they were inside the limousine. Nick kept silent and looked outside the window.
"You can't order me. I don't like it. You're just my boss", Crystal said in an annoyed tone. "I dare you to look at other men and then see what I do", Nick said sternly. Crystal glared at him and humped.
"You are just my boss. You can't control my personal life", she said and turned her face away. Nick clenched his fists tightly and calmed himself. Suddenly, his mobile rang. He saw the caller ID and smiled.
"Hey, cotton candy. What's up?", he answered happily. "Nothing much. Bad wolf isn't home yet and I was bored. Are you busy?", Daisy asked on the other line. "Nah. Oh yeah, when brother returns home, tell him to call me", he said.
After talking for a while, he hung up the call. Crystal noticed how happily he talked on the call but didn't know who this cotton candy was. She was a little annoyed by him.
"Do you want to burn a hole on my head?", he asked without looking at her. Crystal immediately turned her eyes away from his face. Burn hole? I want to strangle you, ice cube. She thought rolling her eyes.
After they reached the hotel, Crystal quietly went back to her room without turning back at Nick. Nick didn't stop her and simply went to his room. He took a cold shower and went to sleep.
On the other side, Crystal sat on the bed with her mobile and started chatting with her best friend, Alaia Wells. Alaia is an A-listed actress of the Entertainment industry. She entered the industry as a child artist at the age of 4.
Alaia gave a call to Crystal which Crytsal picked up almost immediately.
Crystal: LaiLai, you know that man is stupid. He thinks he can control my life. What the fuck is wrong with him? I seriously want to strangle him to death...
Crystal ranted for twenty minutes while Alaia being the bestie listened to her patiently.
Alaia: Are you saying you are jealous because he called someone Cotton candy? *smirks*
Crystal: For God's sake, LaiLai, I hate him. We were rivals in school for more than 8 years. *rolls eyes*
Alaia: Crysie, hate can lead to love then do you think your small rivalry will last. Also, he is fucking smoky hot just like Xavier.
Alaia imagined Nick and Xavier
Crystal: LaiLai, are you shipping me with that donkey? *Annoyed*
Alaia: I didn't say that. Is something going on in your mind?
Crystal: Shut up.
Alaia: Okay, okay. Don't be mad. Do you feel something towards him?
Crystal was quiet for a while before she answered. "I don't know but he is cute. I like his cute behavior. The way he called me his fiancee today was so good to hear..."
"He called you his fiancee? OMG! Bro, you sure have got something", Alaia screamed on the other line. "Explain what happened. Quick", Alaia demanded. Crystal explained everything how Nick reacted.
"Girl, he was jealous. He was clearly jealous and was being possessive", Alaia laughed on the other side. Crystal was quiet. "Why would he be jealous?", Crystal asked after a while. Alaia rolled her eyes.
"Dude, he likes you for sure. You should clear things with him if you like him too. Think about it calmly and talk in the morning", Alaia said in a calm and clear tone. Crystal didn't say anything further.
"Okay, I gotta go. It's time for my shot", Alaia said and hung up after bidding her goodbye.
Crystal sat quietly thinking about many things for the whole night due to which she didn't sleep and the next morning, she looked like some ghost with black dark circles.
