Now and Forever

Chapter 25

"Amelia, wake up."

"What?" I groggily asked as I turned to the other side which was a mistake because I immediately fell off the couch.

I closed my eyes shut and waited for the impact of the floor but it never came so I opened my eyes.

Alexander was holding me up by my waist and I felt a tingling sensation from where he was holding me and the weird part was, it actually felt good.

He cleared his throat and let me go after I was sitting down on the couch.

"We going back now." He said as he went back to his desk and got his suit jacket off the chair.

"What time is it?" I asked as I put on my heels and got my handbag from the coffee table.

"Ten to eleven."

"It's 10:50?!"

"Mhm."

"And here I was thinking that 9:00 was to late." I said and I rolled my eyes as I walked towards the door.

"I told you to stop doing that." Alexander said as he closed the door after we had walked out.

"Stop doing what?" I asked as I pressed the button for the elevator to open.

"Rolling your eyes."

"Why? It's not like a bad thing now is it?" We both walked into the elevator when it opened.

"No, just stop doing it."

I turned my head to face him and he was looking straight ahead at the elevator door, hand in pocket and as usual, with blank face.

I shook my head no and crossed my arms across my chest.

"No."

"What do you mean no?" He asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"I mean no. I won't stop rolling my eyes just because you said so."

"But y- you know what? Never mind."

I smirked because I had just won the... argument? And walked out when the elevator dinged.

"Give me the car keys."

"What? Why?" I asked as I searched for them in my hand bag.

"Because I'm driving." He deadpanned as he opened the backseat of the car and put on his briefcase and suit jacket after I unlocked the car.

"But-"

"No buts. Now give me the keys."

"Fine!" I threw them at him and he caught them like it was nothing.

I opened the passenger seat and got in as he slid into the driver's seat.

"What happened to your car anyways?" I asked as I put on my seatbelt.

"I sent it back with the driver because it was getting late and I could have used yours because we were going to the same place anyways." He said as he backed out of the driving space.

"Wait, what do you mean 'mine'?"

"It's your car." He said like it was the most normal thing to give out expensive new cars.

"You're kidding." I said as my jaw hanged open.

"Did I stutter?"

I squealed and jumped up and down as much as I could in my seat.

"Thankythankyouthankyou!"

All he did was ignore me and put on the radio.

Thirty minutes later, we finally got back to the apartment building, but instead of Alexander parking in the basement, he parked in front of the entrance.
