Their nose touched, making him close his eyes.
His hot breath fanned her face, goose pimples arose all over her body.
His hands were around her waist, she fisted his shirt tightly.
He felt intoxicated, he was hyperventilating.
His chest rose and fall, his other hand was fisting her hair.
What is she doing to me? He asked to himself.
The silence reminded him of yesterday's event.
" I thought you care about me!" He said as their foreheads touched.
That got Mellina off-guard, she fluttered open her eyes.
That's when she realized what she was doing, they both were soaked with sweat.
She pushed him, he stumbled two to three steps backward.
He felt as if someone splashed cold water on him.
" What do you think? I care about you? "
She asked with a sudden change in expression.
He was taken aback.
How did she transform? He asked himself.
" I will do whatever I have to do, till I am here! And that's it!" She said and went inside Ryan's room.
What did she mean?
She cares or not?
He came out of the trance hearing her voice.
" Mr. Parker!" She yelled from his room.
He got angry.
" What the hell?! Did she barge in my room just like that?
What the f*ck?!"He muttered under his breath.
" What the heck are you doing inside my room?" He yelled at her, as he found her standing with his shirt and pants.
" Eh? Dancing! Didn't you see?" She asked sarcastically.
" Mind your tongue, you young lady!" He warned her.
" Okay, old man! Now, can you get ready? We are already late!" She said confusing him.
" Where do I have to be? I don't want to go out with you!" He disagreed.
" Oh, Mr. Parker! How much I wish I could go out with you!" She sarcastically as well as dramatically keeping her palm on her chest.
Ryan stood there awestruck!
Hereafterward, Every first of his is going to be her!
" Go get ready! Idiot, we have to be in the photoshoot in an hour!" She said handed over his clothes.
" Which photoshoot and how do you know I have a photoshoot?" He asked with a frown.
" First of all, it's my job to know your schedule and about the photoshoot, did you forget that you are the brand ambassador of Styke? You have a photoshoot for 'couple shoes and wears!' " She said.
Styke is a Spanish sports brand, which I famous for their vast range of style than any other brand. Now they are introducing, shoes for couples and sports wears. Aiming the athletic couples.
" Shit! I forgot! Who is going to be my partner?" Ryan asked.
" Ms. Winters!" She said with a detached tone.
" That bitch?! How the hell did she become my partner?" He yelled out in frustration there was a drastic change in his demeanor.
" The company wants you both to act like a couple! Recently, you and she have been on the hot topic on social media. Your and her fans ship you both!" Mel said.
" Like hell! She knows how to play these sick games! She intentionally posted the pic!" He whined like a kid, making her smile.
But it went unnoticed by him.
" We will have to do something before the rumor gets elevated," Mel said crossing her hands to her chest.
" But what to do now? The damage is done already!" He let out a frustrated sigh.
" Let us wait till the rumor reaches a hype, then I have a plan. With your frustration and knowing Vivaan, he would have done something for this. Her company's PR would be stronger than us, so they would do anything to spread this, so we have to wait for a chance to make a move!" She said in a serious tone.
" What's your age actually?" Ryan asked in shock.
" Will be turning 19 in months! Why?" She asked with a frown.
" Little girl, I see. But you don't talk like one. You talk like a big girl!" He said with a Tsk... Tsk...
" Hello! I am not little, who said I am a little girl. I am a woman!" She yelled at him, who walked into his bathroom.
" Yeah, yeah! Keep saying that, you will be one in three to four years!" He yelled from the bathroom.
When he returned after dressing, he saw her on her phone fully dressed.
" That was quick!" He gasped regretting his words, he didn't want to say out.
of course, his would ego would get hurt!
" I was quick! But you are late, even a girl can finish dressing up in the time you took to bathe." She mocked her.
" You!! There will be a day, I will make you regret working for me!" He didn't use his words properly. A smirk formed on her lips.
" If your employee has to regret working for you, that's something you should be ashamed of!" She said making him regret his words.
" Ugh!"
" Aww! Old man, you should learn to speak from me. Now, I know why you need Vivaan, to clean the messes you have created. Tsk... Tsk..."
It was an insult for him.
He gritted his teeth.
" What feeling insulted? Eh?" She asked taking her sling bag which was on the couch.
She looks hot! isn't she? He asked himself in awe.
wait! did I compliment her just now?
What the actual f*ck is with me?
She was insulting a minute before and you are complimenting her?
You are shameless Ryan!
She was wearing a half-shoulder navy blue dress that reached her knees, the lower part of the dress had big flowers in it.
As usual, her hair made into a high ponytail, her hair reached below her waist. No makeup except the lip gloss.
He was in his white button-down shirt and black trousers paired with his black shoes.
With his custom-made fitting shirt, his abs and muscles bulged out.
If it was any other girl, she would be ogling at him but it was Mellina.
" I'll let you know something, you are my assistant. So dress like one! No one will assume you as my assistant. Learn to be formal! You like one of the models who is gonna do the photoshoot!" He mocked her.
She was not shocked, that pushed him into shock.
" I don't want anyone to assume me as your assistant because I am not your assistant! Got it?" She said with the equal arrogance he had on his composure.
" What?!"
