Sophia's POV :

I woke upto find myself hugging someone. I looked upto see Edward sleeping there with my head on his lap. What the heck?! But then I realized my nightmare.. him comforting me.. I just smiled at him peacefully sleeping there.

I got up from his lap. I no more had fever just a little weakness I went to the washroom and came back in to see now Edward lying down on the bed. I smiled finally this guy is getting some sleep.

I went beside him and laid down. Soon sleep consuming me. It was dreamless and peaceful.

I woke up to the door opening. And all I could see was fuming Cole standing at the door. What got his panties in a twist?? I laid my head down on my pillow again only to find out it was not a pillow.

As soon as I moved a bit Edward pulled me closer. Okay now I get it what is wrong with him. I got up pushing away Ed. And that woke him up. "What The Fuck Sweetheart" he said in his sexy sleepy voice.

Wait forget that, scratch that. I did not just think that. Then he looked at the door to see Cole fuming with anger. "Okay." He said getting up.

"What the Fuck do you think you are doing in my wife's bed." Cole shouted at him. Okay this is not going to end well. "She is not your wife." Ed shouted back. Cole just gave me a 'Is he serious' Look. Well Ed is not wrong...

"She is my fiancée. You cant just sleep in the same bed with her. And Sweetheart? When did you two start having nickname for eachother?" Cole asked.

"Well I can call her whatever I want and we have had nicknames for about seven is it? Yeah seven years now." He said smirking at Cole. Take notes from this guy on how to piss people off.

I got up standing up in between those two. "Guys." I said. "SHUT UP." They both said in unison. Okay. I got to the side.

"If you really loved her. Why would you leave your 'fiancée' when she was in such a bad condition?" Ed asked. Putting extra emphasis on Fiancee.

"That's not the point. I do love her. But you have no right to just barge into here." He said.

"Look you just cant let your fiancée lay sick there. Let alone the girl you love. What did you see in him?" Ed asked looking at me.

I just stood there staring at his hot bed hair. WHAT?!? Snap out of it Soph. How can you think of something like that. When you are supposed to be engaged. Well.... But still... I cant just repeat everything again. It was his choice to let me go. Right?

Well you left without hearing his choice.

Said my mind. Heyy not helping. I was brought out my thoughts with the bickering in front of me. These guys need to stop.

" STOP!?!" I shouted shutting both of them. "YOU?!" I said pointing my finger at Cole. "YOU GO TO YOUR ROOM RIGHT NOW AND WE WILL TALK ABOUT THIS." I said when Edward snickered behind me. "Hehe They don't even stay in the same room. Fiancée." He mocked.

I turned around glaring at him. "AND YOU BETTER SHUT UP." I said. Breathe in Breathe Out. Breathe In. Breathe Out.

"Edward Thank you for taking care of me and helping me. I will see you tomorrow at your office for the meeting Okay?" I asked. He nodded. Then he did something most unexpected. He hugged me. Whispering in my ears.

"Sweetheart do you happen to know you look very sexy when your mad? Huge Turn ON. And I am totally digging the new short hair. But I would prefer it a bit longer. And The Australian Accent is something I have been attracted to." He whispered huskily. Making me blush like a tomato. 

He smirked and took his coat form the bed. Kissing my forehead. "Take Care Okay? Call me if you need me." He said. And walked out. I just stood their shocked. WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED. Yes I am saying it loudly. Get the emphasis of the caps lock.

Why the heck is he being so nice. Wasn't it like two days ago where he said and quote – "So I suggest Miss Sophia that you stay away from me and I stay away from you."

Sleeping with me, well beside me. Then helping me with my nightmare and comforting me , making me soup is I am sure not the definition of STAYING AWAY.

I just ran my hand through my hair. And turned around. To see Cole still standing there. Great. Just great.

"I was wrong Sophia. I thought you would have forgotten him. But who am I kidding one of his comforting lines and you are back into his arms. Really? I thought you were better than this." He said and started walking out.

"Cole. Its not like that." I said. "Save it Sophia. You still Love him. Its been Seven Years for Gods sake. Trust me if he is the right one for you. Go ahead I am no one to stand in your way. But When he breaks your heart again, don't come running to me." He said walking out of the room.

It hurt me like a brick. Tears rolled down my cheek. 

I sat down there near my bed sobbing. When Shawn walked into my room hugging me. "Shawn I don't know what to do." I sobbed. "Cherie sometimes its okay not to know what to do okay. You always have solution for everyone's stories and problems. But its okay for you to not know." He said rubbing my back.

"I don't know why I felt so peaceful when Edward was with me." I said. "Sophia you guys have a connection and neither of you can deny that. You guys just need time to get used to each other its been seven years." He said.

"But Cole thinks we are thing and that I would go running back to him." I said. "Look I know that Cole is your fiancée so you have to give him his share of love and time. But please don't beak his heart to get back with Edward." He said.

"I just want me and Edward to be friends again." I said. "I know Cherie. But the past you guys had...Its hard not to let those feelings resurface again." He said. I just stayed silent. "I don't want to choose between them." I told him.

"And you don't have to. Okay? Just go talk to Cole." He said. We both got up. I hugged him and thanked him.

I walked to Cole's room and saw him talking to the photo frame. "I Don't want Sophia to hate me. I know she cant love me like she loves Edward but I just don't want that dickhead to break her heart again.

She is a very nice girl. I know I am doing injustice to her by refraining her form so much. But it is because I care for her. She needs that protection and care and love. She deserves that.

She doesn't understand this is all for her own good." He said.

"I Understand and I am sorry okay?" I said to him. He turned around and hugged me. "Look I am not saying you stay away from him or ignore him. Seeing the business condition that is not going to happen.

But please don't let him hurt you again. You are too important to me." He said. I just hugged him back and nodded. "Cole I am not that 17 year girl anymore. I think I can handle him."

I hope I can handle him.. I sighed and we went to check up on Jason. He was playing in his room.

"Hey Lil Guy..." I said and he ran to hug me.

"Heyy are you okay? You were not well in the morning right?" he asked.

"Yeah I am fine now. Tell me about your school. " I smiled at him.

Then he started talking very excitedly.   From his new classrooms to the teachers and the Two friend he made. And how his day was...

It mad me smile how he was so sweet and innocent.. "Wow it seemed that you had fun huh?"

He nodded his head vigorously. "Okay Jas now it is time for bed. Let's fu p you have school tomorrow so let's get you to sleep." I said.

I picked him up and placed him on the bed. Cole sat on the other side of the bed. We stayed with him till he fell asleep.

Then we walked out of the room. And to the study with our laptop and both started to complete our work. I called my assistant to make all of my appointments tomorrow. I don't care if the schedule is packed. 

Not going to work for day when I have so many big deals coming up is stupid. I complete my presentation for tomorrow. And its 11pm by then. I get my schedule mailed to me.

7pm : Meeting with Ms. Alexa Martin for her new contract

8pm : Meeting with your team for the show.

Well great now I have my whole day planned out. I close my laptop after sorting my emails. "Cole I am going to call it night. Even you should go to sleep. I have work early tomorrow so I am going to leave around 6:30." I say and kiss his cheek.

"Okay dear Goodnight." He says kissing my forehead. I go to sleep after taking my pills. Tomorrow is going to be a very very long day.

 The next day I get up at 5 go for my run and come back get ready in a black top and black pants with a baby pink coat over it. I walk out and to my car. Driving straight to my office. I connect my phone to the car and call Jenny.

"Why did Edward ask for lunch meeting again?" I asked her.

"Ma'am I don't know but he asked his assistant and so I have informed you." I said. "Okay. Fine I am on my way to the office. Keep the list ready for me. And don't forget my coffee." I said and hung up before she said anything.

I pressed on the accelerator and reached my office in no time. It was glass building like every other office at this street.

I walked out of the car and the receptionist greeted me. I just walked straight to my elevator and to my floor.

Jenny was waiting their with Caramel Frappe. I took it from he randomly walked in.

I sat in my desk putting my bag aside. She added me 100 sheets of resumes and photos of the models.

I was going through them sitting it out. When one thing came to my mind.

How can I forget. I called Veronica. I hope I don't disturb them and most importantly that they are not busy.....

"Send me Allisons number." I said.

There was a heavy sigh. She was breathless. Oh My God.... Now that's something we should talk about..

"Roni were you and Jordan about too.... You know..." I trailed laughing so hard.

"We were just making out." she argued. "Whatever you say..." I said.

"Sophia can you leave us alone go trouble so one else." he said.

"Send me the number. And don't use any pro-" "Yeah Bye." He hung up.

I chuckled at that. Ah. Love.   

My phone pinged to see Roni had sent me a message. It was Allisons number and then there was another message.

Roni - I have made sure you want trouble us anymore 😏😉

That seems like Jordan freaking Bennet.

I called Allison.

"Shawn Leave me alone.   Hello? " she said.

Huh? My twin Shawn?

A - "Hellooo"

S - "Yeah. Hey. Allison Sophia here. I hope I am not disturbing you..."

A - "OMG no Hi.."

S - "Yeah heyy so you know about to Los Angeles Fashion Week right?  So I was thinking if you would like to model for my collection?"

There was a kissing sound and a soft moan but I tried to ignore it. There was a long silence.

A - " Ummm.. Oh my gosh Yes... I didn't really imagine you would ask... OMG thank you... Sure I will. It's I'll be an honour."

S - "Great the fittings and practice is today I will get my assistant to send you the details and do me a favour honey.

Tell my dear sweet brother to stop kissing you on the neck and grow a pair of balls to ask you out.

And also tell him we are going to have a chat about this later."

I heard a groan.

"See you in a bit." I said and hung up. That guy does have guts though.

I just took the pencil out and strated sorting out. I called in Jenny.

"Why is there only pencil on this stand? where is the other stationary?" I asked angrily.

Why do I pay these people again? 

"And I am sending you a number of a model I want for my collection mail her details she already said yes while I sort this get me some fucking stationary."

She scurried away. And I continued sorting the beautiful ones from the sluts.

My door opened.

"Hand me the rubber." I said without looking up. There was a pause.

"You want a condom?" a voice said.

And I choked on air. And looked at the oh so familiar voice.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"More importantly why do you need a rubber?" he asked.

"You idiot. Rubber means Rubber. I mean an Eraser." I said frustrated.

He then looked at me still confused. Aww Cute little thinking face. Wait no..

"We call eraser rubber in Australia." is aid explaining further. Then his face lit like he just got an idea. Then he nodded.

"See I told you Attractive Australian Women and their sexy accent." He said coming closer and placing his head in the crook of my neck.

I just stayed there shocked. What  is wrong with this guy. Why is he here again. I didn't remember that our meeting was till an hour or soon.

"Ma'am.. I...I'll come later." Jenny said.
I immediately pushed Edward.

"You idiot what do you want?" I asked.

"Oh I am sent here by an devil to make sure you don't disturb him while he has good..  How do I put this... Sex?" he said.

I looked at him with wide eyes. Geez Jordan meant This when he texted me?

"No Thank you. you can go I am not going to call him anymore. Actually I didn't call him in the first place I called Roni." I said matter of oh so factly.

"No I am good here. An Roni and Jordan same thing." He said taking a seat on the couch.

I sat down on my chair sighing and pressing my forehead on the table. I looked up to see him admiring my office.

"You are not going to leave are you?" I asked.

"Nope." He said.

"Okay.." I called Jenny.

"Get a Black Coffee without milk with one cube of sugar. Make sure it's hot and freshly prepared and reorder my Frappe. Don't come without it." I said and hung up.

"Chill a little Sweetheart leave the poor soul alone." he said. I just gave him a look to shut up.

2 minutes passed with him just staring at me. I looked up frustrated. "If you are gonna just sit here. Atleast help me out. Get your ass here." I said.

"Oh So Sweetheart you want me to watch pictures of girls if sexy outfits  sureeee." he said taking a seat front if me.

"Sexy.  Hot. Nice boobs. Accepted."

"Hot. Cute. But not a nice ass. Rejected."

"Uh... Too innocent" throwing into the rejected files.

"Great ass. Accepted"

"Sexy figure. Accepted"

I watched him sort them out. Wow.

"Okay Okay. Stop. Go back to that couch. Pleaseee." I said to him.

"No you are working I'm bored. This is Atleast entertaining." he said smirking.

I just turned around frustrated. Why is he like this.

I took the papers from him sorting them out myself in 1o minutes I was done. And that's when Jenny walked in.

She kept everything. And was about to walk out. "Jenny Im sorry for earlier. You can take a break for now." I smiled at her.

She gave a small smile in return and left. I handed the coffee to him and took my Frappe.

"So you really don't hate me anymore?" I asked. A emotion flashed through his eyes. I couldn't say which one but his eyes were dark blue for a second if I didn't look even I would have missed it.

"Look I'm just being me. I I hate you everyone tells me I'm wrong. I don't want to fight with everyone. So I'll put it behind. There is no harm in being friends right?" He said raising his eyebrow.

I just got up and hugged him. Finally..  He hugged me back. After a minute.

"If you wanted to touch me so bad you just had to ask Sweetheart." he said and I punched his shoulder. We both laughing.

"Okay let's go to my office we have a meeting to do." he said pulling me with him.

I smiled. This is so right. Us being friends again. Everything is back to normal and I hope it stays that way.
