he didn’t even spare me a second glance which made me feel a little disappointed. It has been about a week since I’ve been kidnapped and now with everything going on between us I was more than ready to go back to my old life. When will he let me go? Let him go and this silly fantasy I had too. I was in my room when I heard familiar voices downstairs. Of course curiosity always gets the best of me so I crept down the hallway. No one ever came here, well not after I came here. I quickly checked my appearance. I look decent. I was wearing a black and silver mini dress that flowed from the waist and down to my thighs. I matched it with silver platform heels. At least I looked like I belonged here, maybe that’s why Dennis bought me all of this, so that if anyone came here I would look like I belonged. I snorted to myself, I could never belong here.
I almost screamed as I came down the stairs and seen who was sitting the living room. It was the guys from OneRepublic, my favorite band. Ryan, Zach, Drew, Brent and Eddie were all greeted by Dennis. They looked like long time friends. Now I was sure this place is driving me crazy. They all looked up at me and I had the pleasure of watching six pairs of eyes bulge out of their heads including Dennis. I thought I heard Ryan whistle under his breath as I approached them. Don’t fall, I said to myself. Don’t make a fool of yourself Angie, relax and breathe.
“Oh my gosh, OneRepublic!” I said nonchalantly while avoiding Dennis. I could feel his blue eyes burning a hole into my body. “I’m a huge fan of yours, I’ve always been for long time now,” I said as I shook all of their hands.
“Are you now?” Drew asked.
“Definitely, it’s great to finally meet all of you. I’m Angelina by the way but you can call me Angie,” I said smiling.
“It’s great to meet you too Angie,” Ryan chimed. “Um, wow you look great,” he said while clearing his throat.
“Hands off bro, this one is mine,” Drew warned as I blushed. I couldn’t believe Drew Brown was flirting with me. Suddenly Dennis cleared his throat from behind us.
“Let’s get down to business,” he said calmly, but it sounded a little forced. “Excuse us Angelina?” He turned to me with his blue gorgeous eyes looking fierce.
“No, she should join us, would you Angie?” Drew asked. Ha! At least someone around here wants my company.
“I would love to ,” I said as Drew smiled widely at me. Dennis looked furious.
“Very well then ,” Dennis said stiffly. He led us to the living room and we all took our seats; I took the recliner chair, crossing my legs.
“I’ve never seen you here before Angie, what’s your relationship to Dennis?” Zach asked and I froze. In the corner of my eye I saw Dennis tense up.
“She’s my girlfriend ,” Dennis quickly replied. And for a second we all sat there in shocked silence, me included. Before the guys could look at me I had to control my expression not wanting to blow our cover. “I recently asked her to move in with me,” he lied so well even I was convinced that it was true.
“Well I’ m sorry man for trying to make a move on your girl,” Drew said.
“Hell dude, I’m glad you finally got yourself one,” Ryan gestured then turned to Drew. “Pay up bro, you lost the bet,” he murmured.
“What bet?” I managed to ask as my heart was doing somersaults in my chest.
“If Dennis ever got a girlfriend and of course Drew bet against it, I knew it would take a very special girl but we didn’t know when it would happen,” Ryan laughed. “Congratulations, you were able to tame Dennis here, something most women tried and failed and what most of us thought was nearly impossible,” he added to Drew who frowned and gave him a hundred dollar bill. I have no words for what I just heard.
“Thanks, I guess . Oh, I just remembered I had to help Carmella out with something,” I lied. I had to go somewhere else so I could hyperventilate peacefully and
