novelHer Smile Let The Devil In
| ← Ch.047 | Ch.049 → |
April got into the shower and as the warm water ran over her body she let go and felt refreshed. After all, she would live and learn many times and as of now, she had a clean slate to restart her life. In this life, James was a client and she was sure her sister Lucy would soon have her claws into him. She was welcome to him, April smiled.
Once a man could throw you away he could do it many times and to many other women. But then she knew her stepsister was the same and would only use a man for monetary means or his power. Neither knew of real love or feelings.
She washed her hair and body using the many male products she found. Micheal had a wide range of products and this she had expected from him, he always put pride in his appearance. Finishing up she wrapped up in a towel and dried her hair and body.
Seeing the long sleeved black t-shirt she picked it up and a new single packet of boxers fell out, she put them on and then the black T-shirt and continued to towel dry her hair. She looked at herself in the mirror, she had long black hair, green eyes, full red lips and a pale complexion. She quickly looked away, she had so much to work on but she had time.
April then walked out of the bathroom, grabbing her clothes from yesterday and heading to the bedroom door. She felt guilty for taking up Micheal's bed for the night she had to make it up to him, maybe with breakfast.
She opened the door and realised the layout of Micheal's condo looked similar to her own condo at Cerulean.
"Good Morning beautiful! Did you sleep well?" A masculine voice came from her right side.
April jumped seeing Dean appear at her side, he smiled his insanely annoying heart stopping smile at her. In a panic, she took a step back and slammed the door.
Dean on the other side of the door had just got up and had made them both a coffee when he saw his bedroom door open. There April stood in his t-shirt looking unbelievably desirable, he couldn't stop himself and walked towards her to welcome her and say good morning, he wanted to do this every morning.
As she turned and fled for safety to his bedroom after his greeting he couldn't stop his smile. His girl liked to slam doors, she was shy. Scratching his nose he decided to try and get her out.
Knock Knock
"As much as I love this game where you slam the door in my face multiple times, I would like to offer you some coffee. Im sure you have a nasty hangover." Dean stared at the closed door and waited.
The door opened after a minute and April walked out, "Sorry for slamming doors in your home, you scared me I thought Micheal brought me home."
"That's okay and it was your knight in shining armour that carried you home princess style." Dean teased.
April felt like she wanted to crawl back in bed and not come out again, what had she said or done last night? Either way, she had to be thankful.
"Thanks, Dean, sorry for any hassle I'm sure I was a nuisance." April smiled up apologetically.
"No need for thanks, you were quite cute and honest when drunk. In future don't worry I'll come whenever you need me." Dean smiled back and handed April a coffee as they walked to his sofas, he indicated for her to sit down.
April didn't take his candy coated words as truth after all they only gave you temporary bliss. She drank the coffee and sat down and looked around. His apartment was tastefully decorated yet lacked warmth, she supposed that was why he hired her.
Although Dean wanted to keep April here, he knew he had to take it slow if he wanted to make any progress. After all, in two lifetimes he had longed only for her. Just as the sun begins to rise and will fall again in this stormy sky, Deans heart beats for her, a gentle hum, a hint of longing, of loving his angel.
He sighed and smiled at her as she sat sipping her tea, "Casey has your handbag so I will go down to the front desk and get your spare key for you."
April who had been trying to remember last night was woke from her daydream at his words and started to stand up, "Oh no it's okay I cant trouble you, I will go."
Dean put his hand out and gently made her sit again, "Only I can see you like that. Do you want Jace to pass out seeing you like that?"
April blushed immediately pink staining her pale cheeks, she had forgotten what she was wearing. She tried to pull the t-shirt down to cover her long jade like legs.
But to Dean that made her even more radiant and couldn't help smirking, he would love to hold her and kiss those pink cheeks. Her smile let the devil in, with skin white as snow, her frame delicately thin under his large t-shirt. She was nervously biting her lip, which drove him wild with desire. Deciding it was better to leave he walked back to the front door.
"Stay here, I will go get you your key." Dean took one last look before he left his condo committing this sight to memory before he headed out the door closing it behind him.
"Patience... have patience." He repeated to himself as he went to the lift. Going down in the lift he thought that this was progress, she had only slammed the door in his face once and she seemed comfortable enough around him in his home.
He headed out of the lift and straight to the front desk."Jace I need April's key, she locked herself out."
