Chapter 27 - Take it or leave it
Olivia POV
I wake up and it is Tuesday morning, it is 7:30 AM, fuck I’m late. I get up fast and run to the bathroom
to brush my teeth and put my hair into a high ponytail.
I run to the dressing room and grabbed a black knee-length dress and high heels shoes.
I put my blazer on top and grab my handbag and walk back into the bedroom looking at the time.
Shit I am late, I grab my phone and then I realized Raphael is not in the bed.
I walk out of the bedroom towards the kitchen and I see him, he is sitting on a stool on the kitchen
island. He is talking to Maria and he is dressed in a dark blue suit and a white shirt and a dark blue tie.
Black shoes, Fuck this man is hot.
I walk behind him and give him a hug from behind grabbing his mug and taking a sip of his black
coffee.
I give him a peck on the cheek
“I am late” – I say walking towards the door when he grabs my waist pulling me towards him
“Where do you think you’re going?”
“To work” – I say blinking my eyes
“Oh no, you’re not” – Raphael says with his blue eyes getting darker.
“Babe, I have to go, I don’t want to be fired”
“I don’t give a flying fuck but you will NOT be in the same room as Lucas” – Raphael says spitting fire.
“He’s not going to touch me, Michael will be near me all the time” – I say hugging him
“No” – he replies
“Raphael, I am not asking for your permission, this is my job and whether you like it or not I am going to
work” – I say crossing my arms on top of my breasts
He looks at me and sighs
“He wouldn’t be stupid to try something again” – I say remembering the day before.
“If he looks at you I want you to get Michael and leave that place”
“Fine” – I say giving him a peck on the lips
“I gotta go” – I say and I run towards the door seeing Michael waiting for me. We both go down on the
Lift and he smiles at me
“How are you feeling today?”
“I am better thank you for asking, and hey, thanks for yesterday”
“Just doing my job” – he winks at me
We walk into a black SUV and my phone starts ringing. It’s Lucas. Shit
“Good morning Mr. Scott” – I say
“Olivia you are late” – he says
“I am sorry Sir, I am on my way” – I reply trying to keep my shit together
“I want a coffee and a muffin and you have 3 loads of papers to grade, hurry the fuck up”
“Sure Sir” – I Reply
“Douche” – I say after hanging up and Michael laughs
“This is going to be fun” – he says.
When we arrive I walk fast through the corridors going straight into the Teacher’s cafeteria and
grabbing a coffee and a muffin for Lucas and I go to his office.
I open the door and see him sucking faces with a student.
I fake cough and they both stop. The girl looks bright red and runs out of the office.
“You should’ve nocked” – he said
“I am sorry sir, it won’t happen again” – I say putting his coffee and muffin on his desk and walk to mine
to start grading papers.
Lucas has a sip of his coffee and spits it out
“This tastes like shit and it’s cold, go get me another one”
I sigh and get up and walk towards the teachers’ lounge with Michael behind me
“He’s being a dick isn’t he?” – He asks
I nod my head and grab another coffee and I make sure that is piping hot.
We walk back and I put it on his desk and when he takes a sip he burned his tongue and I stop myself
from laughing
I see him leave the office to go to class and I breathe deep and keep grading papers.
About one hour later I finish grading the first lot of papers and I look up to see Lucas staring at me from
the door. His eyes have shifted. He looks mischievous and that scares the shit out of me.
I don’t say anything and start grading the second lot when I hear a well-known deep voice I love.
“Let me pass” – I hear Raphael
“She is working” – I hear Lucas say
“Well it is her Lunchtime so she is going to have her lunch” – I hear Raphael says and I can’t stop
myself and I smile looking at those bright blue eyes staring at me
I get up and walk towards him passing through Lucas. I throw my arms around his neck and I feel
Raphael tensing up. I give him a soft kiss on the lips and I grab my handbag and go out with him.
He keeps some distance from me and I don’t understand why.
I see all the girls that pass us looking at him grinning and I try to hold his hand but he pulls his hand
away.
I feel tears appearing in my eyes but I keep them there when we get inside the SUV he holds me close
to him and kisses me, I push him away looking deep into his eyes
“What the fuck Raphael?”
“What?” – He says
“You are ashamed of me aren’t you?”
“I would never be ashamed of you”
“What was that then?”
“We are not a couple Olivia, you can’t just kiss me in public and expect me to do the same”
I laugh and I say to myself “I can’t fucking believe this”
Raphael sits back and looks at me “What?”
“You have until the end of the day to decide what you want Raphael, you’re either with me or you’re
not. I don’t do half, I don’t share and I definitely won’t hide because you have a reputation to maintain”
– I open the door from the SUV and get out.
I walk towards a corner cafe and I sit there having a bacon sandwich and some coffee as it is all I can
afford. I am fuming with his reaction to us. He doesn’t like me the same way I like him. I will never be
good enough for him. I am just the flavor of the month.
After I finish eating I pay my bill and I walk back to NYU to find a very pissed off, Raphael, in front of novelbin
the entrance of the main building.
(Hi everyone, I am sorry the chapters have been a little shorter, but I was without a laptop for more than
1 week and I thought would be better smaller chapters than you guys waiting for them)
