Alex

The flight back to New York was quiet. Harry slept most of the ay back, while I tried to catch up on some work. When we landed to New York, Harry offered to take a cab and I refused.

"Harry, I will take you home. Do you honestly think, I'll let you go home by yourself?

To my surprise, she didn't argue, she just glared at me.

When we reached her apartment she said "Don't even think about it saying it!" She warned.

I chuckled but kept my mouth shut. It really bothers me that she's staying here, but this is something we can discuss another time.

"You don't have to go down. I can manage."

I ignored her and opened my door, I look back at her and find her glaring at me, "Don't even think about it!" I warn her. She grumbled and crossed her arms across her chest. I chuckled. To her credit she stayed on her seat. I went to grab her luggage at the trunk and then went to her side to open her door. She pushed the door and it almost hit my face. I shake my head amused with her. She was clearly annoyed with me for bossing her around. So I followed her in silence. When we reached her door she opened it and I followed her inside. She threw her keys on the bowl by the kitchen counter and turned to me.

"Do you want to unpack my things too and put it back in my drawers?" She asked angrily.

"Sure," I tell her.

"Aargh, you are so infuriating!"

I laughed and I walked towards her. I put my arms around her and kissed her protruding lips. "You are so sexy when you're mad," I winked at her.

Her face softens, "I'm sorry, I know you're just trying to be a gentleman."

"It's okay." I said smiling at her. "Wait, I have something to give you." She tried to say something but I held up my head to stop her. "Please, Ry. I really want you to have this," I said to her while giving her my puppy dog eyes. I know she can't resist when I do this.

"Fine." She said.

"Great. Here you go...open it."

I watch her open the box, and her eyes rounded once she saw what was inside.

"I couldn't just leave it. It belongs to you. It was meant to be yours. I really want you to have it Ry. Please don't be mad at me."

She looked up at me and smiled, she was shook her head, "no Alex, I'm not mad at you. Thank you, thank you so much, I love it." She said, while giving me a hug.

"So, who's picture are you going to put in the locket?" I asked.

"I'm not telling you," she said mischievously.

I smiled, "fine, I'll find out eventually. Anyways, I should get going and let you rest. It's been a long day. Goodnight Ry."

"Goodnight and thanks again for everything. I had the best week of my life."

"I'm glad, you deserve it!" She was standing by the door, holding it open, she looked so beautiful. I leaned down and I kissed her tenderly.

It took all off me to break the kiss and stop myself from dragging her inside to ravish her.

"I should really go or else. Won't be able to stop." She nodded shyly.

"Goodnight sweetheart, lock the door behind me right when you close the door," I said to her.

She rolled her eyes, "Yes sir!" She said in salute.

I shake my head in amusement as I close her door. I wait for her to lock the door before I left.

I swear, this girl will be the death of me, I thought to myself, as I walk uncomfortably. Fuck, another cold shower for me.

Harry

Right when I closed my door, I went to search for the picture I have of Alex. I wanted to put the picture of the man I love the most in my locket. Once I found it, I cut it to fit the locket. I look at what I've done, "perfect" I said to myself.

I went to sleep with a smile on my face.

I woke up in the morning feeling happy and content, but at then the thought going to the office suddenly made me a little worried. I'm not sure how to act with Alex at the office; but then what am I saying? There shouldn't be a reason for things to change. I just need to act like I always do.

I get to the office and Magda is at her desk, she looks up and sees me. She smiled and said, "He's in early today and asked me to send you in right when you get here. You can go right in."

"Okay, thanks."

I knock on his door before I entered. I see him on the phone conducting business. He looks tensed, his jaw is clenched, his face hard. He looks up and sees me, his face softens, and he motions for me to come and take a sit. I wait for him to finish his call and he's just looking straight at me, and I feel myself blushing under his intense gaze. When he ended, he got up and walked around his desk towards me. He grabbed my hand to help me up and he hugged me.

"I missed you," he said.

"I missed you too," I said.

"You're wearing the locket," he said.

"So I am," I grinned.

He held the locket in his hand, but when he tried to open it, I immediately closed my hand around it. "Uh-uh..." I said while shaking my head at him.

"I'll eventually find out who's picture you put in there. In fact, I could already guess," Alex said smugly.

"Ok, one guess. Let's hear it!"

"Just one?"

"Yup," I said, popping the p at the end.

"Alright then....you're parents' picture?

"I giggled, "I only said you had one guess, not that I'd tell you if you were right or wrong," I said smirking at him.

"You cheat," he growled, before he leaned down to capture my lips, silencing me.

I immediately respond to his kiss, but before our kiss deepens, he pulled away from me breathlessly.

"Have dinner with me tonight," he told her, rather than asked.

"Will you?"

"Will I what?" He asked.

""Have dinner with me? that's usually the way to ask." I told him.

"I would love to, thanks for asking," he said with a smirk.

I glare at him, "I wasn't asking you, I was merely pointing out, that you did not ask me to dinner, you simply stated it."

"Well of course, you'll have dinner with me. There was never any question about it," he stated.

"Why you...you arrogant...person! What if I had plans?" I asked him.

"Do you?" He asked me.

"No, but that's not the point Alex."

"Come on Ry, why make things difficult?"

"Argh...God, you know, sometimes I just want wring your neck! You are the most frustrating, infuriating, and arrogant man I have ever met!"

He laughed! He actually laughed at me!!

"Oh Harry, I love it when your mad," he said while wrapping his arms around me, just like what he did last night after making me mad.

"Why do you like to upset me so much?" I asked him.

"Because I love it when you're mad, you're so sexy...and I get to do this," pointing at me being in his arms..."and this..." He said before he leaned down to capture my lips.

Oh god, he kissed me tenderly. He cupped my head, and soon our kiss turned frantic, he was pulling me closer to him. He moves to my neck, trailing kisses from my ear down to my neck, making me moan. Oh god. It feels so good. Then I feel his mouth leave my neck and he rests his forehead on mine.

While we were both still trying to catch our breath, he asked, "So, will you have dinner with me?"

I smiled and nodded, too affected by the kiss to speak.

"Great, I'll pick you up at 7pm, " he said before giving me a quick kiss. "Now go, before I lose control. I have a lot of work to get done by tonight, if I want to make to the date I have with this stunning lady," he said winking at me.

I chuckled, "is there anything else you need sir?"

He smirked at me, "Just you!"

I blush, knowing exactly what he meant.

The rest of the day at work was torture. I couldn't wait to go home and get ready for my date with Alex. Time seem to be going by so slowly. I'm so excited. I hold on to the locket Alex has given me. Only I know who's picture I keep inside. I smile to myself.

----------------------

"So...where are we going?," I asked Alex, once I was settled in his car.

"To my place, I'd like to cook for you," he said.

I looked him with surprise. "You cook?"

"There's a lot you don't know about me Ms Adams," he said smirking at me.

"Is that right Mr. Harrington?"

"Yes," he said while leaning down to kiss me.

The rest of the drive to his home was quiet. I guess we were both tired. We sat in silent, while he hugged me to his side.

When we reached his building, it was no surprise when he pressed the lift to take us to the penthouse.

"Why is there only one button?" I asked.

"This is a private lift. It goes straight to the penthouse. The others use the elevator on the other side."

"Oh, whoever thought of it must have been smart. I mean, the penthouse is the best suite and you know, it's nice to have that privacy too," I said to him stupidly. I mean what do I say to that? Well I guess I could have stopped with 'oh'

He chuckled, "Thanks. I'm glad you think I'm smart. "

Huh? "What do you mean? Did you ask for it?" I asked.

"I own this whole building, I personally looked over the plan and design. I knew I'd be living here so I made sure I had my own private elevator."

"Wow, I didn't know."

"Like I said..."

"Yeah, yeah, there's a lot I don't know about you," I continued for him.

He laughed. "Well here we are."

His place was huge. It was styled modernly. It has Alex written all over this place.

"Make yourself at home," he said.

"You have an amazing view!" I said, remembering the view of his Paris penthouse.

"Thank you."

I turned around to find him the kitchen and I find myself staring at him. He looked good in the kitchen. Hell, he looks good anywhere.

"I'm glad you think so," he said smirking at me.

Shit, did I say that out loud?

"Yes, you did."

I slap my hand on my forehead, shit I did it again.

He laughed and said, "here why don't you come and sit. Have some wine."

I walked over to his kitchen counter, while he poured me some wine.

"So, I look good in the kitchen and everywhere huh?" He asked smugly.

I ignore him and I picked my wine and took a sip. He's looking at me. His stare is so intense I feel naked.

He walks around the counter towards me. He grabs my stool and spins me around so I was facing him.

"You look good in my kitchen too," he said huskily.

"I...I...," I stuttered.

He leaned down and captured my lips in a searing kiss. He cups my head and pulls me closer. His hand moves down my body to my legs and he pushes my legs apart, as he moves to stand between them. He continued kissing me.

"God, you make me go crazy. I want you. Tell me you want this. Tell me!" He demanded.

"I want you too Alex. Make me yours Alex, " I said huskily. I want him so badly. I'm going crazy with need. I have never felt this kind of wanting before.

He groaned and he picked me up carrying me to his bedroom.

Alex

I can't believe it. I'm about to make love to Harry. She feels so good in my arms. My cock is so hard I can feel it throbbing in my pants. I carried Harry to my bedroom. I gently let her down, and now she's standing in front of me with heated look on her face. God, she's so beautiful.

"Take my shirt off for me sweetheart," I said to her.

She did as I asked. She was looking at me like I'm the best thing she has ever seen and it makes my cock even harder. I groan and bent down to capture her lips once more. I kissed her, while I unzip her dress. Her skin feels amazing, so soft and silky. She smells so wonderful. I leaned down to kiss her neck, and she arches her neck to the side, giving me more access to her neck, while I pull the straps of her dress off her shoulders, and her dress falls off, pooling at her feet. She instantly brings her arms up to cover herself. I shook my head and held her hand.

"Let me look at you sweetheart," I said, while prying her arms off of her body.

"You're so beautiful," I whispered, before leaning down to capture her lips.

"I love this," I said cupping her breasts.

I worshipped her body all throughout the night. She was amazing. The way she was giving herself to completely brought great pleasure to me. Once I had her aching with so much need and desire, I entered her. She felt so amazing. I made love to her over and over again. She was writhing and moaning with pleasure. After hours of intense love making, we both passed out exhausted. I pulled her tight against me and kissed her head. She snuggled closer to me. But nothing could have prepared me of what happened next. What happened next shocked me to the core.

"I love you Alex."
