Aliya POV:
Alex have been more attached to me lately. What's wrong with me? Why does I feel infantuated more to Alex. That feelings of mine is long gone.
I lean in the kitchen island waiting for my coffee to heat up. I was so focused in thinking that I could not even hear the knock of the door.
The voice outside of the door was familiar. 'Jordan?' I look back to the table I was staring at but then destracted again by his voice. 'No. I had planned not to associate myself with anyone with an attachment to Marina, specially not her brother. '
I was thinking and biting my nails as I go. Somehow guilt came to me like a strike of lightning. 'Jordan never done harm to me. He helped me in finding my new work, and helped me to move on. ' I shook my head and consider my idea about him.
Finally I decided to open the door. He was dressed in a white polo with black jeans, as always he is very fashionable and always dressed well. This time he looked like he dressed well for a bad possible scenario.
He raised his head from a falls hope, when I open the door he smiled to me. "Aliya. " he smiled with a sign of relief.
His eyes was a little red and he looked like restless. " Jordan What is it that you want." I crossed my arms blocking the door way and looked to him sarcastically.
"Aliya please allow me a second chance, I did not know you and my sister have a recent fight."
'What? Is he kidding.. he probably know that and just make a excuse.' I roll back my eyes without him seeing what I did.
"I'm so sorry. I should have known. I came here cause I was so worried,your not picking up your phones nor my messages. "
'Yeah cause I do not want to see yohr face again. '
I shook my head and calm him down for a mean time. He was calm when I tried to speak with him the poor guy was just worried about me. I want to believe his words when he told me everything today but at some point I want to say that I won't associate with him anymore.
"Aliya can I still be your Jacob that you so trust?"
I gestured to him to stop and his eyes show sadness reflecting on his pupil. I shook my head before putting back my arms to the folds. " Jacob I have been dating someone and I'm queit smitten to this person." His understanding nod make my heart in a weightless. It felt anything hard or heavy from my heart was lefted up. 'Am I guilty to people due to my feelings for Alex?'
"I see.. " he smiled to me reassuring me if I need anything I can come to him. Which i think it would not happen.
I step back a few times when he smiled to me with a bitter one before leaving I waved to him and as usual I was being friendly to him just a chance for him to redeem himself as friend.

I was doing a shoot and fitting some clothes for the upcoming event in our modelling agency when the face of my make up artist broke out in an ugly one waving his hand over to her face. "So hotttt" she whisper.
I look closely when she keep rolling her eyes and joked out a hot dude. "Okey sure. New model. " I smiled and laughed it off when she turn her back and she shrugged her shouldet telling me that she is done.
I waited to for her to come back only by shocked in surprised. "OH MY GOD" she gasped and I look back to see the CEO dressed in a normal look not in a crazy polo and an expensive us wathces and clothes.
"Alex" my mind goes blank when he smiled to me. "Surprised?" He raised his browse. I look back to my artist only to be gestured to take my time.
"How did you." I grabbed him by arm and locate our self in the less people room; in my dressing room.
He winked to me." As I said baby, I have my own ways. "
'This guy clearly stalking me.'
I wacked him hard by the arm and he was practically hurt by it. I was annoyed. From all places why do he need to show up here.
"What do you want." I look to him in a glaire.
As a cool CEO he is Alex put his hands to his pocket with a teasing like face. "Aliya I did not know you work great in photos, specially in lingries."
I chuckle to him in a sarcastic way. "Hahaha. You have seen me many times in lingries Alex" I scowl at him. My browse almost reach at each other anniyed by the precense of him in the agency.
His teasing look slowly fade. " Baby I'm here to pick you up. "
'ah! What? Pick me up.. what do you think of me a kindergarten?'
I look to him with an angry glaire and he took it lightly and be more picky on his words. "Okey. I'm here because I would like to get you and have a day with you." He looked away a few times being shy. It was shocking to see him a little shy and red. "You get out of your office." I pointed to hin and spot the normal of him, he shook his head answering me no. "It's ny day off."
I raise a left brow. 'Okey that's new.'
"I just misses being with you Ali." He pleaded to me more to make me go with him. I decline his offer twice but he did not seem to stop. The photoshoot started and he was there looking to me while I do my pose. I was distracted and can't consentrate, the photograhper needed to take me twice so I had good photos.
'Curse you Alex.'
2hours pass and everything was done. I get back to my own normal clothes and I removed some crazy make up and recreate some make up that was removed and fixed my wavy hair. And Alex Castell was still there seating like an obedient puppy. I look to him, "how long are you gonna stay." I almost yell at him but gladly I didn't.
He stood uo from the chair and crossed his arms and give me unsure look. "I don't know. Maybe until you say Yes." I roll my eyes and sigh in complints. 'Fuck! I'm super tired and this dude just want to give him my time that is supposed to be given to the bed.'
"Fine." He look to me with a smile that I have seen before. "Perfect." He grabbed me by the arm and out of the room. I look at to my artist packing up as well and stan of what she saw. I could not even say a proper good bye to her.
he click his keys with a small control and it sounded. "New car?" He did not bother to check my reaction but he smiled after opening the side seat and going to the drivers seat. "Just some new found sweethearts."
He started the engine and it crossed my mind. 'Where does he want to take me...'
"Now I know what else Marina being envious about. " I laughed. I joked to him and it was not a joke for him to laugh. He keep a snarl to him when I laughed it out.
I cleared my throat changing the topic. 'Now his mad by hearing her name. That's a first.'
The ride lastes about 20 minutes and me talking nonsense inside the car. He was going along with my jokes even it was mean to intend to him.
He stop by a parking area like the others. I look around and saw some people having a good time. " where are we?" I step out, and that question first roll in my head. He smiled to me with a playful undertone to it. "I think you missed going on parties." i look at Alex on how ridiculous he is now.
"I do still party. "
He lead me to walk inside a big house. The house looked so modern and the artchetect of it was very impressive. Inside I almost left my jaw open on how realistic the house looked from the inside. It was a high-teh house. "Who's house is this??".
There were also few people whom I do not recognized and some are celebrities. "It's a collegue friend of mine who invited me in a party. " I look away and tried to walk to the door when he tugged on my arm. "Where are you going."
"You are invited here not me. I'm a nobody." He scoffed at my words. "Baby, you are everything to me." His words felt sincere and it gave my heart a blast of strikes. This man really knows how to sway me.
He softly pushed me in and meet with others. A burning heat from my cheecks I felt. 'What are you doing. You cannit fall for his sweet sugary Diabetis like words.'
I breath to relax my nerves and perhaps washed away that burning sensation.
"Hey Alex". The CEO looked to the left and a blonde girl walked to him and give him a big hugged.
The girl was a celebrity from a famous movie that I and Jemaira watched. I tried my best not to be overwhelm and fangirling a lot since I really like the actress and now she is infront of me. "Oh. This is Aliya my girlfriend." Her smile was amazing, she looked amazing even in person.
Alex claim me as his girl. My cheecks felt heat and my guts feel shy I look down. "Hi." She reached out a hand to me and smiled. "Alex your so lucky. " she sigh and alex replied her while he was looking to me. "Actually I'am the one who's lucky."
'What does he think his doing? Is he intorducing me to anyone that I'am his girlfriend?!'
I smile to both of them and told Alex to stop. The girl waved us good bye when she is called and needed to the others. He then continue to lead me to the table giving me a champagne and for him was a wine. "Hmm.." I staired at his hand handing me the champagne. " here, no wine for you cause thise wine have a higher alcohol level. " I pouted my lips thinking it was a waste. The bottle looks expensive and classic.
I pick up the glass from his hand and took a sip on it. The taste was very surprising, it taste a little sweeter than any champagne I tried.
I followed Alex when he walked to the staires. The other side has a big balcony that views the city from a far. The wind blew gently and it make my mind a bit in ease and refresh.
"The city does really have a nice view." I looked at the city with a blinking lights, everything was a relaxing scenery. Alex talked softly. " the stars are very beautiful, but you know what is more beautiful?" I look to him and smirking. "What" in reality I actually know what he will say, this is lines are not new to me. "Y O U " he sfotly pull me to his side while I slowly fight back by stepping aside which he did not force.
"What a cheesy line. " i shook my head laughig. "And where did you pick up those words."
He smiled back to me realising thaf I already knew the punch-line, "ahh.. " he sip in to his wine. Alex is still so hot, I can't help myself looking to him on how hot he does things his face, his body, his jaw bone is all calling me ugly.
" I actually just heard that from my bird tweet feed."
I pointed to him making a joke of himself. Just being with him I wanted to make myself drunk and not let myself melt to all his charms. I looked at his glass of wine and hum for a bit, he quite noticen that i actually wanted to try the wine so he reach the glass to me. "May I?" He looked to me with an agreed look. I reach the glass and drink the wine.
Whoo.. I almost choke at how strong it felt. My chest burn in the middle of me drinking the wine. I coughed a bit when I finished drinking. I can feel the hands of Alex assisting me in soothing me from what happen. "Slow it down Ali".
Holy Grail! That was amazing! The taste was sweet and all but it was strong after gulping it in.
"Can I drink more." Alex smiled seeing that I was kind of enjoyed he shook his head with a shrugged. "Why not. " this moment I was not even thinking of getting drunk and all, I have all the wine and the fun in my head.
Alex grab some more and we stayed at the balcony to have some time.
"Truth or dare" he asked.
My face was in red from the alcohol and my vision was a little hazy but it does not matter to me. "Truth." I pointed while reaching the glass to my lips.
" how long have you kept secrets from me. "
"Hmm.. I dunno, since I was a kid? Ahhaha who am I kidding you don't know that i exiest" . He laughed with me.
The hours passed and Alex grab my wine glass and placed it on the table. "Come we had to go now. " I look to him and stand up, my feet has no strenght to hold my body and it felt heavy. "Oh okey."
He helped me up making sure I won't fall or swim directly to the ground.
" is't late." He put me in the side seat and out some seat belt on me. My eyes was coming heavy and all so I decided to take a little nap. I could feel the car closed when Alex goes in and started the engine.
***
A movement of tap on my shoulder waked me up. "Your home." I look everywhere and saw my apartment building in the side. I grabbed my bag from the back and open the door just as I was about to step out I can't determine which floor should I step to.
"Ahh. .." I look back to the man.
"Yes?" I pointed to the ground. "Can you help me to go into my apartment room? Cause I can't tell which floor is which.."
He smiled to me with a little laugh and he got out taking my other hand wrapped it to his neck, he also carried my bag.
'Ping' the elevator door sounded means that we arrived at the floor. "Which room." I told him the room i was in and he walked us to that way, I managed to assist him as I could but a worst head-ache came to me like a wrecking ball destroying my sanity.
"Keys." I pointed my bag." the keys is inside my bag at the left in a small compartment."
Alex managed to take the keys and open it. the bag was placed on the counter and he picked me up bridal style placing me to the sofa.
The soft body of the sofa create a comfortable feels for me. The dizzy motion from coming to my floor was slowly going away.
Alex POV:
I looked to the female who was already comfortable and drunk asleep in the sofa.
She is sleeping soundly. 'What an angel.'
"Aliya! "
"Aliya I'm sorry! Please...!"
The sound shouting in the hall way. I quickly looked to the entrance door and saw that i did not closed the door well so I come for it when a man that is also drunk almost crawling on Aliya's door.
"I'm sorry. " he cried out.
"Pitiful" I said under my breath.
He look half way and stood up pointing to me.
