Bethany

It was late when I came back home after dropping Eva in her home safely. She definitely had fun. I on the other hand couldn't exactly agree it was fun.

All I did was talk to the extremely cocky, self centered player. Argh.. Why the hell did I even talk to him. He is trouble. I shouldn't even have looked at him. But still when he touched me I felt those unfamiliar jolt of electricity. It sent shivers down my body. Even though I know it's dangerous I craved for it. I wanted to be engulfed in his arms.

Oh God! What the hell happened to me?! Why a single drink is making me go insane for a stranger?!

Calm down Beth, it won't happen again. Yes, it's only a one time thing. Tomorrow everything will go back to normal. You will be back to a loner and an invisible person. No one will pay attention to you tomorrow. You will be alone peacefully. I reassured myself hoping that everything happened today will be a dream.

But no. All my hopes where crushed entirely the next day along with my phone. During my walk to the diner, I was using my phone. That's when I walked straight into somebody. Within a fraction of seconds my phone was lying on the ground crushed into pieces and a strong pair of hands were holding my waist to stop me from falling. I looked at their face to thank them but after looking all I wanted was to wipe his stupid grin.

Jason was standing there with a wide grin on his handsome face. With a scowl on my face I picked my broken phone.

" I didn't believe in destiny till today sweetcake " he said with a smug smile making me groan.

" My bad, I believed in destiny till today. But unfortunately making me see your face again made me lose my hope in destiny " I replied back with the same smug smile.

" Sweetcake, I didn't know you will fall for me this quickly. But don't you think stalking me is little over top " he told completely ignoring my comment.

" You dumbass! You are the one who walked into me and made my phone break " I fired back at him.

" Whatever makes you sleep in the night sweetcake. Even though I would love to have a nice long chat with you, my presence is wanted somewhere urgently. So until then sweetcake " he said and tried to leave.

" Where the hell do you think you are going after breaking my phone. You owe me " I said showing my broken phone to him.

" Oh sweetcake, I thought you were different. But you too are the same like others who are running after my wealth " he said trying to act hurt.

" I don't give a fuck about your wealth. Whoever you may be, you broke something of mine so you are responsible of fixing it. " I shoved my phone in his hand." Fix it and give it to me before tomorrow. I work in the diner at the corner of the street " I told and walked past him.

" Sure I will be the one to fix it Bethany " he shouted back. I couldn't tell whether he was talking about fixing my phone or something else.

"Girl I am not drinking ever " Eva groaned besides me in the diner.

" Atleast you had fun yesterday " I told her with a straight face.

" Come on Beth, don't act. I remember you talking to a extremely hot piece of ass " she wiggled her eyebrows playfully.

" Hot piece of ass? He is more like pain in the ass. Seriously that guy is trouble " I groaned loudly.

" That's what they say in the beginning. Atleast tell me his name so that I could dream of his handsome face " she sighed dreamily.

" His name is Jason Scott. I am telling you he is a devil in disguise of a prince charming " I said rolling my eyes.

" Scott? I think I have heard it somewhere. " she said while thinking.
" Oh my God! Beth I think he is the heir of the Scott industries. He is freaking rich. Wow!! Extremely handsome and rich as hell. He is a package. You are soo lucky girl " Eva squealed making our manager glare at us.

" Shut up Eva. You will get us fired. Firstly, I don't care about his looks or wealth. To me he is a cocky self centered narcissist. Secondly, how the hell do you know about his family when you shifted to this city only a month ago?!" I gaped at her.

"Beth unlike you I actually talk to people. You know I have a degree in business administration. So I have applied for a receptionist job in Scott industries and other similar ones when I shifted here. Since there was no vacancies avaliable I couldn't get into it. That's why I started working here temporarily to provide for me and my sister " she said with a sigh.

" Don't worry Eva,you have the talent. You will sure get a decent job soon. You deserve it. " I encouraged her.

" Thank you Beth. And you too deserve happiness. Take a chance on life Beth. You won't regret it " she told me and went to answer the customers leaving me in my deep thoughts.

Do I deserve happiness? Can I really take a chance without regretting it? I don't know.
