Now and Forever

Chapter 27

ALEXANDER P.O.V

Sexy.

That's what I was thinking about Amelia since last night.

She had worn a rose gold silk dress with spaghetti straps and ended mid thigh.

The funny thing is, I'd never thought of Amelia like I did last night.

I could tell that someone else had packed it for her with nothing else to wear but that because of how

she was arguing with someone on the phone.

"Mr Knight?" Someone's voice broke me out of my reverie.

"Hm?" I said as I sat up straight in my chair.

"Is everything alright?" One of the men I was meeting today asked.

I nodded and looked over at the other man but he was to busy looking outside the window.

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion since he was doing that a lot for the past twenty minutes.

I also looked out of the window and I felt my pants tighten, just a little bit.

Outside, there Amelia stood, looking HOT.

She was wearing a yellow strapless bikini top and blue denim shorts with the zipper down and button

open, showing off the same colored bikini bottoms inside.

She was playing basketball, well, shooting the ball into the hoop and was scoring each time she shot.

She looked flawless.

I turned back to him and narrowed my eyes at him. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"Mr Roberts." I said and he quickly turned his head at me.

I'm surprised he didn't even get whiplash.

"May I ask why you're looking at my wife like she's a piece of meat?" I asked as I leaned back in my

chair and raised an eyebrow.

I don't know where this jealousy/ possessiveness is coming from, but I don't like it one bit.

"I.. I'm sorry? Sir?"

Is he even for real?!

"Get out." I spat icily at him.

"P.. pardon?" He said with a look on his face that screamed 'I just saw a ghost!'.

"I didn't stutter, did I?" I asked as I glared at him.

I turned to the other one and he was also glaring at him.

"I'll talk to you tomorrow Mr Bright."

He looked at me with surprise written all over his face and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you so much Mr Knight." He said as he stood up.

I looked over at Mr Roberts and glared at him.

He widened his eyes and followed Mr Bright out of my study.

I got up and walked out of the house through the door that led to the basketball court.

She must have felt my presence because she turned her head and saw me.

"Hey, is your meeting done?" She asked as she turned back and threw the ball into the hoop.

It went swish into the hoop and she walked over to the ball and bent down to get it.

I sucked in a breath at the sight in front of me and some not so nice thoughts ran through my head.

"Yeah." I answered as I shook my head to get rid of those thoughts.

"Huh, that was fast." She threw the ball and again it went swish.

"Mhm." I said as I leaned against the door frame.

She unexpectedly threw the ball at me but I caught it with ease.

"Wanna play?" She asked as she walked towards me and collected the ball from my hands.

"Sure." I took off my jacket and rolled my sleeves up to my elbows and walked onto the court.

She looked at me with surprise written all over her face.

"Wait, really?" She asked with a look of hope? I don't know, in her eyes.

"Umm, Yeah?" I answered.

She punched fist into the air as if saying 'yes!'.

I just shook my head with a ghost smile playing on my lips.

***

64 - 63

That was the score (unfortunately).

"I beat you!" Amelia chanted as she did some kind of happy dance.

I groaned in annoyance with a smile playing on my lips for the nth time in the past five minutes and

looked at her.

"I know, you've been saying that for the past five minutes." I said as got my jacket off the floor and

walked into the house.

"I know, but still! I beat you!"

"It was only by one point." I said as we walked up the stairs.

I opened the door to our bedroom and we both walked in.

"It might have been... for one point, but I still beat you." I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion as to why

she stopped for a moment and turned around which was a huge mistake.

My eyes widened, my eyebrows rise so high up that I think they were touching my eyebrows and my

mouth parted, slightly dry.

She had taken off her shorts and was now only in her bikini bottom that was held up whith two straps at

her sides.

She was saying something but I couldn't hear because of her goddess like body.

"Alexander?" She walked towards me with her arms crossed which was a huge mistake -again-

because that gesture only made my pants tighten.

She stood in front of me, still saying something. She snapped her fingers in my face with furrowed

eyebrows.

"Alexander!" She shouted and I blinked my eyes several times to come back to reality.

"Huh? I'm sorry, what?" I asked as I turned around and walked into the closet, she followed.

"I was asking if you would like me to cook dinner." She said as she scrolled through her drawer.

"Umm yeah, sure." I said as I got out a pair of grey shorts and a white v neck.

"Ok then, I'll shower first so that I can get to cooking while your showering, is that okay?" She asked.

"Mhm." She then walked out of the closet and I released a breath I didn't even know I was holding.

A few minutes later, she walked out of the bathroom in her dress but this time, she had tied a -scarf? I

don't know, but it looked like a scarf- around her waist and it ended on her knees.

I don't know why, but I was slightly disappointed that she covered up, I think she looked better without

the scarf thingie around her waist.

The only good thing that came out of it was that she tied it a little bit tight around her waist so her body

shape came out perfectly fine.

Where's this even coming from Alexander?!

I shook my head to rid my thoughts and headed to the bathroom after Amelia had walked out.

The smell of Amelia's body wash or shampoo hit my nostrils as soon as I walked into the bathroom.

It smelled like... vanilla? I don't know what it was, but it smelled amazing.

I got into the shower and replayed the memories of today, I even smiled a little bit when we were

playing basketball, funny, right?
