I went back to my room to get dressed and also do my light makeup. I wore a maroon tight fitting dress that shaped every meander on my body. I was always told maroon was my definitely my color because of the way it blended in with my hair color. Eastwood valley was a small town and everyone prided in looking good even if it was at church. Basically church was where most people got to show off who was wealthier than who and gossip about who was having financial troubles.. it was always about money and reputation rarely about actually religion..
When I was satisfied with how I looked, I went to Eric's room. It seemed I couldn't stay away from him and I always wanted to be close to him. I didn't know what this was or where it was going but like Laura had said.. I didn't and shouldn't think about it.
Eric was shaving in his bathroom so sat back on the bed just browsing through my i********:. Honestly, I had repeatedly told him that there was no need to shave because he looked really sexy with stubble and a cute mustache, he just laughed it off and said he preferred to stay clean. By clean he meant everywhere in general, I like that. I always browsed through my i********: when I was bored, the WiFi was super slow. I didn't know why but I totally hated it so I ended up playing candy crush that was until Eric's phone started ringing.
"Eric.." I yelled but there was no response.
Oh well.
It began ringing again and I huffed, taking his iPhone four and answering. I didn't know if Eric was just a cheap skate or what? But everything about him was just so cheap except his boots. Comparing my iPhone X and his iPhone four just wouldn't be fair. I knew it was merely a choice, he wasn't joking when he said he didn't care much about technology. I couldn't help but be bothered by the fact that if he created an i********: page, girls would follow him like a flock of sheep, me being one of them. He was and is one of the most breathtaking men, I had ever laid my eyes on and had the liberty of being thoroughly f****d by.
"Ricky!" A woman said through the receiver. She sounded beyond aggravated.
"Hello?" I spoke up unsure what to say. The number was not saved, it didn't look like a US or Canadian number judging by the starting digits.
"Who the bloody f**k is this and what are you doing with Rickey's phone?" She rudely replied. I was taken aback, she had a much deeper confusing not so attractive British accent like Geordie shore.
"Uhm, who are you so I can take a message for you to Eric." I asked politely.
"I don't give a f**k who you're and you shouldn't give a f**k about who I am. Just tell Rickey that he better get me out of here otherwise, we're both going down."
With that the line went dead.
I shivered with fright.
Suddenly Eric came out of the bathroom dressed in a clean cut suit, he looked undeniably breathtaking.
"What are you doing with my phone, Leo?" He said in a rather gruff voice. Walking to were I sat, he grabbed the phone out of my hand with no gentleness.
"Uh someone called.."
"And you answered my f*****g phone? Do you have an f*****g manors, Leona? Don't ever touch or answer my phone again unless you know what's good for you!" He threatened. I was afraid and shocked. I had never seen this side of him.. it was just a phone.
He was clearly fuming.
"What did it say?" He groaned, frustratedly running his fingers through his brunette curls.
"She just said something about you getting her out or you're both going down." I said in a low voice not sure of what his reaction would be
"What else?" He asked.
"That's all." I replied.
He then came close and made me stand up. Shoving me towards his hard chest, I let out a gasp. He then lowered his head and whispered in ear.
"Don't you dare, Leona. Don't ever do that again unless you know what's good for you. You don't see me answering your calls and texts from so called sugar tits."
"I know, i apologize." I said pulling away from his grasp but he wouldn't let me go. I was... I didn't know how to feel about this. Who was he? What if I was putting my family in danger because of him.
"I will wait for you downstairs." I cleared my throat when he refused to let me go.
"Leo, look-" he lifted my chin up slowly. "I'm sorry.."
"I didn't mean to snap at you like that." He let out a plea, I just nodded but he still wouldn't let me go.
"Are you mad at me?" He asked and I couldn't look at him, I stared at the grey carpeted floor.
"No." I said shaking my head.
"You're." He added.
"I'm sorry, there are just some people I'm trying to leave in the past back in Manchester.
"Okay." I nodded smiling a bit. I didn't want him to ever feel uncomfortable around me so I forgave him. He was clearly trying to change and I didn't want to remind him of whatever his past was. If he ever wanted to tell me then he would. I shouldn't care this much, he would be gone soon enough and that made me sad.
"I didn't know you owned a suit." I smiled fixing his white collar.
"I'm always prepared for a job, which Christian boyfriend wouldn't have a suit." He smirked and suddenly everything was back to normal.
"You look sleek." I complimented.
"I could rip of this dress and take you right now." He laid a sloppy kiss on my neck and I blushed.

Church was well church.
Eric kept dozing off if he wasn't then he was seducing me, touching my thighs. Pastor Johnston was preaching and I couldn't help but give out a yawn. It wasn't boring, I was just tired. Robbie kept giving us both an eye when Eric went to the church bathrooms and gestured for me to follow. I did, like I would follow him to the back of beyond. When we got there he just pulled me in his arms and gently kissed me with no intention of letting me go.
"Uhm.." Someone cleared their throat and my cheeks flushed while I was still in Eric's arms. I didn't want to turn back.
"Hey Laura." Eric cleared his throat.
"You two, are obviously getting too cozy." She giggled making me look away. She just knew, she gave me that look that she knew this man was f*****g me or had been f*****g me.
"Yeah.." Eric replied.
"Lee, my dad said you must come and help with the holy communion like you always used to with me."
"Oh yeah right.." I pulled away from Eric's arms. Laura was quick to leave then Eric pulled me back and whispered, I will see you in a bit; I nodded.
He was really something, I was happy.
Please Vote and Comment so I'm motivated to write more. I'm kinda not so sure about even continuing or unpublishing it for a while.
