ASHLY POV
I woke up with a severe headache.
'How many bottles of wine did we drink last night? My headache. Ouch!'

When I opened my eyes, I was in a soft bed and in an unfamiliar room. I’m not in my condo or my dad’s mansion. I get up and turn around. Fuck where am I?!
My eye caught the young man lying on the floor next to the bed I was lying on and my eyes widened immediately.
'Its Kaiden!'
He sleeps on top of a thick blanket and was wearing no top and only gray pajamas. I couldn’t help but travel my sight over his nake top. I didn't know he was muscular , because it's not obvious when he's wearing an polo shirt. His broad chest , six pack abs,tiny short strands of hair ran from his belly button down to his waistband of his pants. I held my breath. Why am I looking at his body? Well its just t-that. I love to have a body like this! I nodded. Yes, if I were to be a man I would like to have a body like this.
I shook my head and remembered how I got to his bed. All I remember is that I had a drink with him because I wasn't accepted in my interview with JMP , he also told me the reason why he and Debb broke up then , and I told him also the problem my father and I have. Fvck!
I looked at Kaiden again. Guess I really misunderstood him. He's a nice and gentleman guy for Maeve. Look, he even let me sleep on his bed while he slept on the floor.

I lay down and tried to sleep again but eventually I just got up and went straight to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. Then I headed to the dining area. I was even surprised to see Kaiden there preparing breakfast.
'How long have I been in the bathroom and now he's awake?'
I just laughed in my mind.
"Good morning." He greet me with a smile when he saw me

"Good morning too." I smiled and also greeting "Hey,You're just asleep when I left you in the room and I was just like few minutes in the bathroom and now you're awake and preparing breakfast? HAHAH! Cool."
"I get up after you. I woke up because you step on my foot."
"What? That's not true."
He laugh and put his one foot on the kitchen counter."Yes it is. You step on my foot."
"Sorry okay?"
He just laugh again "Come On. Let's eat breakfast. Does your head hurt?"
I nodded "Yeah a little bit."
He gave me medicine "Take this after you eat."
My forehead furrowed. "Doesn't your head hurt?"
"I'll take one too after I eat."
He laid breakfast on the table, we sat down in the front and started eating.
I stopped chewing the food in my mouth and look at him "Oh by the way,how did I ended up to your bed?"
"I carried you to bed. Your so wasted."
"You're the only gentleman I know but you're gago(idiot/stupid). Start eating."
"Tss. What gago do you mean?"
KAIDEN POV
When I got to my workplace,I immediately saw Quintin.
"How's the project?"
"The plans are now done."
"Thanks for your hardwork Quintin."
That day I was so busy,meet with my clients, develop reports and drawings, and work with other architects and engineers, visit construction sites to ensure that clients' objectives are met and to review the progress of projects.
And lastly, Quintin and I went to the constraction site of the project that the two of us are holding. Aside from the big project that Quintin was holding we're working on the second big project. Our company is currently holding two large projects. Our director decided that we're going to handle this project and also to facilitate the handling of this project.
"Everything is okay here. Only the other details are need to be resketch."
I nodded "Then see you tomorrow."
"Hey wait. How is Ashly?" Quintin asked
"I thought you already forgot her HAHA! You have'nt asked me about her for this past few days."
"Im just busy okay? So how is she?"
"Nah,she's okay. Fine stalking me."
His forehead furrowed "What?"
I pointed my finger on the woman sitting on her motor and with a wireless earphone on her ear,across the site. "Fine stalking me."
"What is she doing here?"
"Its a loong story."
"Then make it short."
"Maeve ask her to guard me 24/7 so that I could'nt cheat around."
He laugh "HAHA! That's what you get. You know,Maeve ask for the right person."
I just cross my arms.
"But wait,how about her gigs? She still have her gigs."
"How did you know that?"
He cough "Well. Im have my ways."
"Well I don't know her sched also. But she guards me really 24 hours a day. Check me from time to time. But I gotta used to it so I don't mind."
His eyebrows met. I just tapped his shoulder "Im off to work."
I headed to Ashly. "Is stalking fun?"
She removed her earphone and look at me "What did you say?"
"I say,does stalking me fun?"
"Well,Stalking is a fun job,you know."
"Are you hungry? Let's eat. There is a cafeteria nearby. The food is delicious."
"You know I won’t refuse food."
"Just leave your motor here. We will just walk, It's just near."
We started walking when I spoke "How's Maeve?"
"She's asking me about my job,guarding you."
"Then how's is it?"
"As of now negative and 30%."
"How can I be cheat? It's like not enough, even in the bathroom, you will surely follow me."
"Just doing my job man."
"And what's that 30%."
"Your good reviews and good points,when that reach 100% I will never guard you again. But surely,this won't be fully hundred percent before Maeve come home."
"Speaking of Maeve,I wish when she got home she will finally understood my side and considered my feelings."
"You know,we have been friends for so many years and I can understand her why she did this things. She just too afraid being left again,she's been badly hurt by her pasts boyfriends. I know she's being unfair but please stay hold a little long,longer your patience and understandings for her."
I was about to speak when Ashly suddenly stopped walking so I stopped walking too.
Suddenly a man approached us and hugged Ashly. She immediately pushed him away.
"Babe,how are you?"
I could see that she look at him with disgust "Wow! Suddenly you came back to life. I can't believe the thickness of your face,you approach me now as if no mess happened between us then!"
"Im sorry,I missed you. Please let' start again."
"After what you did to me?! Maybe you forgot what you did to me. Well, I just saw you having chukchakan (sex) with a woman in your house."
"Please lets just forget about those! I want you back baby,that's why I came back for you. I just arrived from Australia. I planned to go to your gig this evening but I saw you here. Please baby,let's get back together."
"Fuck you."
He even grabbed her arms "Let's talked to other places."
"Let go of her arm!" I said with authority in my voice.
He look at me. I look at him sharply. I grabbed his hands off from Ashly's arm.
"Get off me! Who are you?! Why are you interferring our business here?!"
"Me?" I even pointed myself "Oh," I put my hands around her waist "Im just her boyfriend."
I saw Ashly immediately look at me but she tried her best not to show some reactions. Anger is visible in this young man's face.
When he was about to grabb Ashly's hands. I was about to push him away but someone already did it that makes the young man fell in the ground.
"Don't touch her."
We are so shocked to see who pushed him.
The young man stand "Who are you now?!"
"I?" He puts his arms around Ashly's shoulder "Her fiancee."
Ashly's face became so red,shock and suprise is visible in her face as she look at Quintin.
"What?!" the three of us already said it as one.
What did he says?! Fiancee?
"Nice to see you again Edmund."
"Quintin?"
So this young man's name is Edmund,Ashly's Ex.
Who would have thought that Ashly has an ex? Maybe that also leads her to be possessive to her friends.
"You heard me. Get your fucking face out of here and never let me see that or else I ripped it off!"
This Edmund smirk "Who would have thought that you would do such a flirt action Ashly. You have two guys. One is boyfriend and the other one is fiancee. You two did'nt mind it? She's big flir--" he didn't finish what he was saying when Ashly punch him.
