♡♡♡♡
I look around the private plane , just for the members and Offcourse the prime minister whose sitting just few seats away
Oh god
The way he moves , his neck as he rubs his forehead, his body getting tense , I want to go crawl on top of him and console him right now .
Like he heard my fantasies, he turns around looking for someone
Not someone, but me
When his eyes falls on me , he gets up and comes walking towards me
"Charlotte, I need some help " he looks down at me
I fist my legs together
The intensity of his eyes , glaring my skin
His eyes follows me towards my clenched thighs
And he looks away , like he didn't notice
" Follow me "
That's all he says before he gets back to his seat
I walk towards his seat , his personal assistant glaring at me
And I smile at her
Calm down Maya
Why is she have to be so difficult anyway ?
"Graham needs to give a speech. He didn't like the one our chief journalist has written
.
.
Pierce cuts her off "The speech makes me feel like I'm going to be dead in few days .
For christ sake those are kids not some politicians that I want to impress by my thoughtful words .
They will not understand anything written on that
We are addressing to tell them , we are here to support there dreams .And to make them realize they are not alone in this journey "
I just watch him, awestruck
The passion he strikes , the concern in his voice
The way he speak things shows, how much it matters to him
The way his jaw muscles flexes when he speaks serious
Shows his beautiful face curves and explicit jaw line
"Ms.Jenner?"
I hit back to the reality
"Pardon me , you were saying ?"i ask him
"We have six hours before the speech .I need you to write one ."
My eyes go wide at his words
Wait
What ?
"I haven't written a speech before
I'm not sure If i can do it "
Oh god just by the thought , my hands are shivering
"I told you , she's new .She doesn't know a thing .If the chief was here ,in such emergencies he would have been so reliable " maya speaks as she smiles at me
If I can strike a knife to her big mouth
I would
"Offcourse"i smile back at her
Her face stiffens
"Charlotte " I look at Pierce ,whose watching me
"Just imagine , you should address those kids when you reach down .
How will you talk to them ?
How will you convey our mottos to them ? "He looks at me with those piercing eyes
His name is a pure definition to his eyes
"Okay , can you tell me more .Like what you want those kids to know about you or your work " I ask him
"Offcourse, come here " he points at the seat in front of him
"That will be it , Maya " he smiles at her
She nods and walks away
I take a deep breathe as I open my laptop
Oh god
I'm not sure whether the thought that he's sitting in front of me is freaking me out or the thought that I'm going to write a speech for the Prime Minister
"Are you okay ?"I look at his concerned eyes
It's not like I have health issues
But when I'm tensed my breathing gets hard and tensed
Don't worry , I'm not going to choke myself to death even if my face hints that
"Yeah "I answer him
My lips trembling
"I know this is huge and I'm so sorry to put it on you like this
I mean , your the only writer on board with us .
And I'm confident that you will do your best "
I feel his big hands on my thigh
He gently squeezes them
My hearts starts to race even harder
If he thinks he's helping , he's wrong
He is making it worst
Oh god ,Pierce Graham's hand is on my thigh
Right thigh to be specific
"Look at me "
His voice ..,so husky
I look up to his eyes
"Breathe in "
He's about to move his hand away
But I hold it
Having it pressed against my thigh
And then
I breathe in
In
Out
In
Out
In
Out
"Better ?" He asks me
And I nod
He looks at our hands
I'm holding his hand which are pressed to my thigh
"Good girl "
There is something about him
Which makes him stand out
The way he speak things
The way he orders you
"Get back to work , now Charlotte " he pulls his hand away
And I bite down my lips as I start typing
I look up to him
He is reading a book
"War and Peace " by Leo Tolstoy
"Can I help you?" He smiles at me when he feels my eyes staring at him
"What inspires you ?" I ask him
"Inspire me for ?"
"To do things
To wake up every day wanting to do things
To bring a change "
He watches me intently as he hears my words
He closes his book and crosses his leg
Resting his face on his hand as he speaks
"You know ,no one asked me that .
What inspires me to wake up every day "
I smile at his words
"I'd like to be your first and if your willing you can be mine too"
I lean forward staring at him
He licks his lips as he looks at me
"You
People like you
With so much of energy to spread to the world
And being in position like me , you can't take it for granted
Either I can create a history or destroy one
That's the power i own
Atleast for few more years "
I smile at his answer
"What's your favorite movie ?" I ask him
He looks at me surprised before laughing out loud
His voice echoing in my mind
"Come on answer it " I tell him
" I had a huge crush on Julia Robert's
I loved her movies like Pretty women ,Notting hill " he shrugs at me
I laugh at him
"I know ,I'm old " he smiles back
" not really , I love that movie too " I tell him
"Your telling that to make me feel better
I know " he shrugs but smiles
"Maybe "
He laughs as he shakes his head no
"Anything funny ?" Its Maya whose staring at us
"We were just discussing " Pierce speaks up
Before I can throw something at her face
"Good , I want you to read the memo " she offers him a file
"Thank you Maya "
He smiles at her and back at me
"So , let's back to work " she points at me
And I smile bitterly
