LIENNA
2 MONTHS LATER
"Lienna...your debut song has been nominated for Grammys!!" Nat says while barging into my cabin. I take my hands to my chest feeling utmost frightened by her sudden enthusiastic entry but just when her words make sense, I get off from my chair and scream loud enough that Sam must have heard it at the top floor. I quickly take my hands to my mouth and look at Nat with an 'are-you-serious' expression as she nods and screeches and then dashes at me and hugs me as I hug her back tightly.
"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!!" I yell and smile widely. Nat backs off from the hug and looks at me with a huge smile.
"Bitch, you are so lucky. See, I told you that you are gonna top it up with that song!" She says with a smug face that makes me laugh and I nod with the smile still on my face. But I feel the urgent need to go to Sam right now and tell him this.
"By the way...boss called you," Nat says making me frown. "He was the one who got to know this first of course and then he called me to his office to tell me to bring you there." My heart fills with...I don't know...love maybe. I nod and quickly by dusting off my skirt and white sleeveless top, I unclip my hair and put them in a ponytail instead. And I finally go to him. I don't knock and just dash into his office room.
"Sammy!!" I yell and when I see him standing while slightly leaning against his wide office table, his arms crossed over his chest, his lips in a playful smirk, I run to him and jump over him as he quickly straightens up and holds me firmly. I cross my legs across his waist and hug him tightly. Then look into his eyes and smile widely.
"I did it! We did it!" He smiles even wider and nods. He brings his lips to my cheek and then to my forehead making me smile with my red cheeks.
"I think I deserve thanks too, right baby?" As he says this while looking at me with his playful smirk, my heart starts beating so fast and loud. Before I can even think what to say, he quickly turns us around and makes me sit on the table as he unlocks my legs from his waist and stands between them and keeping his hands on either side of me brings his face dangerously close to me, so close that I can feel his warm breath hitting my face making my cheeks redder.
"S-sam.." I stutter which makes him smirk even more and God that smirk of his is all I could ever ask for. It makes me shy but anticipate things I am too embarrassed to confess. His lips hover over mine and so do his eyes making me clench the table tightly but then his heated hazel eyes shift to my green ones, and I feel like I am short of breath.
"Don't worry, I know how to control." He whispers and backs off making me furrow my brows in confusion and irritation. But then, I remember I was the one who told him to not go far until we are married. Ughh, fuck it. I can't believe I am actually being like this. I have never felt this way before. Sure, we have kissed, but it was more of a peck than a proper kiss and as much as I deny it, I feel really hot right now. I am worried I will do something dangerous and embarrassing as I quickly get off the table and look at anywhere but him. I know he is smirking seeing my reaction to his teasing. I am way too transparent for him.
"Umm w-well, can I g-go home?" I still don't look at him when I ask this.
"You can." He simply says and it makes me want to push him down on the couch and hover over him and lean to his face and--no stop it! I am sure my face is burning, so I quickly nod and dash out of his office. As soon as I do, I feel like I got my breath back. I go to the lift and sigh in relief when I find it empty. As the door closes, I take my hands to my chest and fist my shirt, completely leaning against the wall. What is happening to me?! What is wrong with me?
"What is wrong with you?" Nat asks me as soon as I enter my cabin. I really need to work on masking my emotions.
"You are so red...do you have a fever?" She asks worriedly and touches my forehead. "You are not that hot-"
"I am ok Nat! I am! Just the temperature is a little hot, but I am gonna head home now." She is as confused as she could be, but I can't stay here more, or I will make it too obvious what happened with me. Quickly packing my things, I dash out of my room and head home in my car. Gosh, Sam.
