6. Sean

With my eyes widened I watched as Christian climbed the window.

"Just to let you know, I would never climb out a window for anybody else, no fucking body, but you" he said with all seriousness.

I feel my cheeks burn against the cool gush of breeze coming in from the window. I take in Christian's ruggedly handsome features.

His hair is damp from the water, his body is hard in all the right places, his muscles are toned and thick and he's looking too hot.

I watched him slip out, the banging on my door seized and I was sure that my mum had gone to her room in panic to find my spare key, I peek out of the window wondering if Christian is okay.

My bedroom is at the top of the two storey mansion, but I see him walking alright, he must have slipped on the balcony on the first floor, I didn't know how he managed to do it but, I was impressed.

I shut the window and I move away quickly, I run to the shower cubicle and I keep showering as if I didn't almost get fucked some minutes ago.

The door flies open, my mum glanced around the bathroom, her eyes wide searching for any clue to show that someone was here.

"Mum, some privacy?" I asked her walking out of the shower and grabbing the towel from the rack.

"I... I thought I heard voices" she said, slightly ashamed that the bathroom was empty.

My shoulder slumped and I feigned sadness.

"I was reading my lines mum, I was practicing" I said, the corners of my lips bent downwards. "Do you really think I'm someone like that mum, where did this come from, when did I turn to the girl that sneaks men into her bathroom, mum"

I yelled softly,my bottom slips started quivering and I felt the tears slipping from my eyes, my mum saw it and she was devastated.

"Oh baby, come here" she said pulling me into a hug. "I'm sorry darling, I just.... I'm just trying to project you that's all, please let me make this up to you, okay?" She said cleaning the fake tears from my eyes.

I sniffed, delighted that she was buying my crap, I was a perfect actress, who wouldn't buy my crap?

"Thanks mum, but please no barging in like that again, a girl needs her privacy " I said and my mum nodded.

"How about I take you out tomorrow night?" She asked. "We'll go to that restaurant you love"

I nod my head.

"Thanks mum" I told her.

"I love you" she told me throwing a second glance at my window, then she left.

I heaved heavily.

"That was damn close!" I yelled slipping into my pyjamas, I make sure to lock my window and doors and I glanced at the clock. It was late.

Rehearsals was starting tomorrow and I was the star, I better be early.

I woke up with a vague feeling, then my mind quickly flashed what happened in my bathroom last night,we were so close, Christian would have had me when, finally he would be mine but my mum had spoilt everything.

With a sigh I walked downstairs to the kitchen to see my stepfather alone.

"Jenna, hope you slept well" he greeted before I could even blink.

"Yeah, good morning " I said grabbing a bottle of orange juice from the fridge, I feel his stare boring into my skull and when I turned to him, he had this look in his eyes.

It quickly disappeared before I could even make sense of it.

"About what happened yesterday..." He started saying walking towards me, nervously I set the bottle down in the island.

"Dad no, you don't have to apologize for anything" I tell him, he sighs.

"Chris is not just my brother, he's my best friend, I think I upset him" my stepdad said taking a seat beside me.

Our knees touch but he doesn't pull backwards, even when I know he's feeling the heat, realising what was happening I stoop up quickly.

"Okay I uh... I got to go take my bath nkwyand head over to the studio, see you guys at dinner" I told him walking to the door.

"Jenna " he called, I halted at th door and turned around.

"Does my touch make you uncomfortable?" He asked me. Softness in his eyes, I wondered if I was reading too much into what he was doing.

Maybe he was just trying to bond just as mum always told him to, my shoulders relaxed and I smile genuinely.

"Not really" I told him and he broke into a smile.

*****

I was driving to the studio when I heard my phone ding I grabbed it thinking it would be Paige my bestie but then it's from an unknown number.

"Wanna have drinks at my place tonight?" I read the text out, wondering who the fuck it was, without replying, I threw my phone into my purse and drive into the parking lot of the studio.

I didn't have any time to meet my co-star the other day, but when my eyes fell on the tall slim figure, I knew I would enjoy my time on set. My find falls on Christian, the way his muscular body is just right, the cuts in his abs, I found myself comparing my co-star with him.

I would pick Christian's muscular body instead of my co-star's lean figure.

"Hi, I'm Sean" he said taking my hand at my side and shaking it. "You must be Jenna" he said with a charming smile.

"I am. You must be my co-star" I said looking around, people were beginning to arrive in small numbers, I looked back to Sean, his hand was still holding mine even though the handshake had ended long ago.

I hear my phone ringing in my purse and I pull my hand away from Sean's grip.

"It must be my best friend, I've got to take this" I said stepping away from Sean.

I glance at the screen but it's an unknown number.

"Hello.." I said into the phone and my ears is filled with the rich baritone of Christian's voice.

"Young lady, I hope you're not avoiding me" he said roughly, my heart freezes in my chest.
