Jessica's POV
The study room was so beautiful and much better than the one back in Italy and I could tell all the furniture are new by the smell of refreshing woods I was so accustomed to, while living in the forest for years.
"And as you've guessed, it will be your office from now on. And my stud-" "Is right next to mine?" I looked up at him with my eyebrows raised and he let out a nervous laugh.
"Well, yeah.", he replied sheepishly and I walked inside further into the room, admiring the room I will be working on from now onwards.
"Alright. So, what are the plans for today?" I asked him as I walked out of the office, closed the door and walked the path we travelled to get to my room.
"Well, you can take a rest if you would like. I will sort out the information needed for the mission. Don't worry, take a rest as much as you would like." As tempting as that sounded, I couldn't let him do all the work while I just ate, slept and took a rest. The guilt would eat me alive before my exhaustion does.
"No, it's fine. I will accompany you. After all, the faster you finish, the more time we have to take a rest." I spoke nonchalantly but Luke decided to take it the other way around.
"You want to spend more time with me? Aw babes, you could have just told me if you like me." He teased and I rolled my eyes.
"You know what? I think I would have no problem doing all the work by myself, so why don't you take the rest that you so desperately need because you're starting to hallucinate."
"Aw, we both know you like me. "
"Yeah, yeah and we both know I'm very violent when I want to be, don't we?" I smirked as I looked up at him and he just rolled his eyes.
"Alright, see you in an hour then." He waved as he twisted the knob of his room and walked inside.
I opened mine to walk inside and I groaned as a very girly room invited me.
Ugh, what does he take me for? A fucking five?
The walls were baby pink and some baby blue here and there with a fucking pink bed with fucking pink curtain. There was a cyan nightstand at each side of the bed and I couldn't help another groan of annoyance that escaped my lips.
Fucking pink? Seriously?
Don't get me wrong here, I don't have anything against pink or any other colors because I think all of them are pretty but when it comes to rooms and clothes, I hate pink.
After locking the door, I opened my suitcase and hung my clothes inside the walk-in closet, which wasn't pink but white, much better than a pink closet anyway. After unpacking and putting the things in the places, I took spare clothes and went to the bathroom.
The bathroom was pretty decent too, with black marble tiles and a walk-in glass shower panel and I was so glad the bathroom was much better than my bedroom. After showering, blow-drying my hair and wearing clothes, I walked out of the bathroom and couldn't help but roll my eyes when my pink bedroom greeted me.
Not wanting to spend another second in the room, I walked out with my laptop bag and Luke walked out of his room too. He was wearing a black turtle neck sweater with casual pants and when is saw his muscles sticking to the sweater, I was conscious about what I was wearing.
I just picked a random white shirt and a caramel-colored cardigan outside. I looked awful even to my eyes and I told myself I needed to go shopping ASAP.
"Let's get going." Luke didn't mention anything about my attire and just walked ahead. I didn't complain as he walked ahead of me even though he was hard to catch up with.
Call me a pervert, but every time the damn guy moved, the muscles in his back contracted with every move and it was a sight to see. His chest and bicep muscles almost got me drooling the moment I saw him in his sweater.
This man looks really good in turtle neck. I gotta ask him to wear it more often.
I was lost in my thought, watching his hot body that I didn't even realize we were already at the office. Without knowing he stopped, I kept on walking and bumped into his hard back.
"Woah, watch it. What are you thinking about?" He turned around and steadied me with an arm as his other arm was on the knob to open the door.
"Nothing. Alot of things are on my mind lately. Sorry." After mumbling out a few apologies, I hastily opened the door to my office and scrambled inside.
Oh my goodness, that was so awkward!
I leaned my head on the door and took a few deep breaths. After calming down and shaking my mind off the sight of Luke, I sat on the chair and spun it like a little baby. I mean, it doesn't matter I am an adult now, if I see a spinning chair, I would spin around even if I get old.
After a minute or so, I got dizzy and grabbed the edge of the desk to balance myself. After I got clear-headed, I was about to turn on my computer when I was startled to death.
The wall opposite me was supposed to me was now transparent as Luke looked at me from the other side of the room. He was smiling as he was looking at me creepily and I screamed in surprise.
"WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL, LUKE?" I stood up and had my hands on my chest to calm myself and he burst out laughing.
"Why the fuck didn't you tell me the room was connected? What happened to the wall that was here?" I carefully walked towards the opposite side of the room which was decorated with black tiles and marble floor.
After his laughter died down, he held a remote control on his desk and pressed a button. And the wall that was there a few minutes ago appeared and separated the room in half. Now, I was in Luke's room and I felt a bit uneasy.
