Chereads / When Sparks Fly (Us#1) / Chapter 18 - 9. ".....such an arsehole"

Chapter 18 - 9. ".....such an arsehole"

I woke up with Mattheo's arms around my waist as he held me close to his chest. I loved the feeling and wanted to stay in that position only but it was 9 already and I could hear the sizzling of the food and my friends talking...so I turned around as I wanted to admire the gorgeous view before I woke him up. After a few moments of staring at him, he suddenly smiled but his eyes were closed still, he said "I love that you are staring at me....that makes me feel that I am a piece of art more handsome than I thought I was"

"My god, you are such an egotistical and arrogant jerk....you are not the one I am staring at...it's the window's view behind you. And wake up...it's 9:30....we gotta go outside..."

"Oh, okay..." reluctant to go outside, he pouted and then buried his face into my chest and said..." But I wanna stay here with you in this bed alone...the world outside is brutal and harsh"

I was smiling so hard at his cute face and request , that I let us be like that for another 30 minutes but then we had to go outside for Alex came, and started banging the door saying " Wakey Wakey love-birds....stop the x round of deed....and come outside...breakfast's ready babies"

My Lord! I and Mattheo both rolled on the floor laughing at what Alex said. But we still got up, took a shower together, and dressed up to go outside.

I wore a comfy outfit that I packed and Mattheo wore the outfit of my choice which I felt was comfortable and good.

We both went outside to see everyone being seated on the dining table and talking as they waited for us to join them for breakfast. It felt good , all of it....my friends are here , Mattheo's here and I am so happy...i just wish my parents and siblings were here too.

We had coffee, donuts, and croissants with raspberry syrup for breakfast which was mind-blowing. While we were eating, Alex asked wiggling his eyebrows in the end" So...you decided to stop the *deeds* after I said...btw...which round was going on ?"

Mattheo answered while I blushed " we were not doing the deeds like YOU Alex....we were watching Little Women 1994 edition...which was totally her choice"

"Oh really ?... but I-I wasn't doing the de-deeds...I was just sleeping peacefully"

"Oh okay...but we thought that we heard you moan..." Mattheo lied smirking.

"you should've lemme finished....I meant to say...I was just sleeping peacefully until Taylor baby decided to take a shower...and how could've I missed the opportunity.." he said adding a wink towards Taylor who blushed furiously.

"LMAO...seems like your 'brotherly feelings' for them excluded Taylor and we were lying...we never heard you moan...but damn Alex"

"You are such an arsehole....." Alex said in his best British accent.

"That I am, no doubt..." Mattheo replied laughing.

"So, you were watching Little Women huh ?" Ben asked

"Ah, yes....we were ..." Mattheo said

"On which scene did you stop ?" Ben asked as he figured we were lying.

"Umm...we um...we stopped at-"

"At the scene where Laurie confesses his love for Jo...and I must say Christian Bale & Winona Ryder did a fantastic job portraying and acting the characters..." I interrupted

"Oh, okay...seems you two did watch the movie," Ben said with a smirk.

"Ahh...shut up dumbo !" Mattheo said.

We all were in a light mood that morning until around 7 there came a noise from the kitchen. Mattheo , Ben , Alex were all in the office ...so I , Tay, and Lux was alone. We thought it might be one of the chefs that had dropped the utensil or something but at 7:25, there came another noise and that was a loud one that couldn't have been made by the chefs or staff. The three of us were worried as the office was soundproof and Mattheo, Al and Ben...couldn't hear it.

Tay suddenly whispered to us..."I don't think the last noise was from the floor below us...it was from our floor as far as I guess.."

"Oh My , Lux get the guns...you know where they are...till then I will call Mattheo and all and let them know..." I replied

"Sure thing..." Lux answered.

"Ah, Fuck! The line is cut...I can't call him...shitt footsteps...someone is heading here...set up the cam and hide behind the kitchen counter ...Lux you too !" I said.

"Okay...damn...here are the guns...Ben must've switched the places."

"Each of you holds a gun.." Tay ordered.

We had a gun each...Lux was wearing a skintight dress. She stood up quietly and went over to the kitchen counter sitting on it poshly.

"Hey! Whatcha doing ?... Are you outta your mind ?" Tay asked

"Just wait and watch," Lux said

"Aghh" I and Tay groaned.

The man, whoever it was...came in ...we were hidden but Lux was out there with a gun she held at her back...the man said in his deep and hoarse voice ...

" Hey beautiful , how come you are alone here."

"Hi , um..my friends are out so.."

"Oh , that's the case ?..Well..a sexy girl like you shouldn't be alone now...should she ?"

"ewwww" I and Tay cringed at the choice of his words.

"Absolutely not...and may I ask how come you are here at my bf's place ?" Lux said

"Her bf ?...It's Mattheo's office" I whispered complained to Tay .

"Stop it !" She replied.

"I was passing by , and was mesmerized by this lovely building...so I came to take a look...and no guards were here so.." the man said.

"Oh , okay..." Lux replied...

Suddenly we saw the shadow of the man appearing closer and closer to Lux and we heard her breath hitch as he held her waist...that's when a punch landed on the man's face. It was Ben, followed by Mattheo and Alex. Ben threw him to the ground but he kicked Ben and that's when we heard a gunshot. Lux literally shot him, but it was his arms not his head. Al and Theo took him we don't know where while Ben comforted, kissed, and caressed Lux who was kinda shocked that she shot someone for the first time. We were standing but didn't realize it until Mattheo and Alex came up to us and took us to our rooms. We girls were shocked and frightened.

After a few minutes of silence, we went outside to see everything cleaned up, the house staff did it. We had regained our voices and that's when I asked the boys "How did you hear him...I mean..the office is soundproof."

"Soundproof only to the limit when we can hear your screams and moans during office pillow talk...gunshots are audible...plus we have the cctv's on tv in the office...so..." Alex joked...lighting the mood a bit.

"Oh...and what did you do to him ?" I asked them

"he is in the prison or cellar as you know...and is locked there...can't kill him...we need answers ...don't worry he is under surveillance..." Mattheo answered

"Okayyyyy..."

"Questions done...?" Mattheo asked.

"Yes...I guess so.."

"Great, now let's go back to our rooms to continue what we left off," Ben said with a smirk towards Lux who was smiling.

"Okay ...Good Night all! " Mattheo said.

"It's only 8:37 you dumb shit not the time to sleep" Alex joked.

"Who said we are sleeping?" Mattheo teased with wiggling eyebrows as he lifted me up in his arms and carried me to his room.

"Oh man, don't make too much noise" Ben smirked.

"For Sure!" we all said as we took off different corridors leading us to our rooms.
