Eddie's Pov
It's been a year since I last saw Kayleigh and every day I try really hard to not think about her but I fail miserably. I know she wanted more but I just couldn't give her what she was looking for and If I would have told her that, she would have immediately left me which she did nonetheless! I enjoyed her company but courtship has never been my thing, I have been with Angela for a really long time and with her I get what I want and she got what she wanted. To me the only thing I have ever been committed to is my work, I hate the idea of going out on dates, stupid romantic movies and God those cheesy talks that makes me feel sick; I mean why waste time doing all that stuff when all of it leads to only one thing i.e sex and I get it anyways. I tried to wrap my hand around her but it landed on the cold rumpled side of the bed. I opened my eyes to look around for her but she was nowhere in sight in-fact her stuff was gone too. I woke up and walked out of my room to ask Gary (the butler) about Kayleigh. I found him in the kitchen standing with my chef, "Where is Kayleigh?" he rolled his eyes, he is the only one in my staff who dares to answer me back as he practically raised me. Before coming to work for me he used to work for my father in his mansion and since my parents were always away for business meetings, he raised me and my siblings. He answered me, "She left in the morning, the poor girl was crying her eyes out. Which indicates that you might have something to do with that!" The chef handed me my coffee mug and I took a sip from it, "So why didn't you stop her?" I saw her last night in my club, I had recently bought that club because I hated it's previous owner. I was there to check the accounts and there she stood gorgeous as ever wearing black and I just couldn't resist approaching her. I wasn't surprised to find her drunk, I tried really hard not to do anything but I just couldn't resist. My thoughts were interrupted by a disappointed Gary, "So what harsh words did you use that made her leave so heartbroken? " then it dawned me. I was deep in my sleep when i said those words to her, I thought she was some random girl I had one night stand with and not Kayleigh. This has happened with me a lot of times where I get drunk and make out with women whom I think are Kayleigh but when I wake up they're someone else. I wasn't even drunk last night then how did assume something like that in my sleep! She is the reason why I can't have sec with same women more than once!
I walked to my study with my coffee and dialled Jay's number once I sat on the chair as he answered and instead of greetings he started off with, "Tell me whom did you fuck last night?" I rolled my eyes mentally before answering, "A girl!" He snorted "I know you are not in to men so obviously it has to be a girl, tell me her name." I tried to control my anger, I can't tell her I ran in to Kay last night, he is very protective about her and I hate that about him. On the last 4th of July when Kay dumped me, he was so mad at me after he found out I was abusive with her that he punched me in the face. I know I shouldn't have done it but that woman made me feel things I have no control over, somehow she brought out the worst version of me. I came back to present and composed myself, "I didn't call you to talk about my hook ups, I need some suggestions from you!" There was a silence on the other end for a moment then Jay spoke in a formal tone, "Tell me how can I help you today?" I rolled my eyes because he can never stop being dramatic, "So there is this girl whom I have disappointed and I need to make up for it so tell me what should I do?" there was again silence from his end and then I heard a series of laughter erupting from him, I wouldn't even tolerate him right now if I knew what to do in this matter. I spoke in an ever so serious tone, "This is not funny Jay!" He spoke in between his laughter, "Honestly Bro I never thought you would ever say those words and they really sound funny coming out of your mouth!" He laughed again, "Are you telling me or should I consider someone else for suggestion?" his laughter died and he told me what to do next. I was lucky he didn't ask me much questions, two hours later I got dressed, picked up some stuff and stood outside Kayleigh's door for a couple of mins before ringing the door bell I took few deep breaths. She opened the door wearing nothing but a long t-shirt, dark circles under her eyes and her hair a mess but she looked really adorable in that state. She shut the door on my face the moment she saw it was me. I rang the door bell few more times but she didn't open the door so I finally called out, "You know very well Kayleigh, that I won't go unless you open the door and I will even break the door down if I have to!" I heard nothing from the other end so I decided to pull out the big guns, I announced "I got burgers and fries from Rudy's" after a couple of seconds I heard shuffling behind the door and she opened the door a little so she can poke and extended her arm, "Give me the food and you can go!" I chuckled mentally patting my back for not listening to Jay's suggestions, "I am not leaving until you talk to me!" she eyed me suspiciously for few seconds but let the door open for me and walked in the living room. I walked straight to the kitchen and pulled out two clean plates serving burger and fries in both the plate. She walked in to the kitchen and frowned at me but the moment she looked at the burger she picked up her plate and walked back to the living room and sat on the couch, I grinned looking at her but she threw me a furious look so I kept quite while walking back to the living room with my plate and sat across the living room. We ate in silence, I knew getting her food was the best idea and her anger slowly started to melt away. I held her hand while she looked at me curiously as she couldn't say a word as her mouth was full with food, "I am sorry Kay, those words I said to you in morning were not for you!" her eyes watered but she didn't let them fall, it made me feel horrible for how I treated her, "I was in sleep and I forgot that last night I actually saw you and it was you who I got home. Forgive me Kayleigh, Let's start over please".
