I turned around to get the dishes from the table when I saw Conor there with an amused expression on his face. Beside him were 2 bodyguards.
'AAAHHH! What you doing here?' I said embarrased that they saw me dancing and singing. I quickly put the radio low and looked at them.
Conor was laughing so much and guards had a smirk on their face.
'Conor, I can't believe this! Who the hell are these guys? And how did you get here? I mean I was just-'
'Calm down Rubes. Look I'll tell these guys to go.' He nodded his head and the guards went out the door. I started coughing and my head hurt.
'You okay? I didn't mean to scare you.' He said putting his hand on my back.
'No, I'm just ill.' I said coughing again. My throat was hurting a lot now.
'Ruby, you can't do all this work. Come on. I'll take you to bed.'
'No I'm fine.' I said. But there was no point, he was already taking me upstairs.
He put me to bed and and put the duvet on top of me. I would have laughed if I wasn't so ill. Conor was helping me to bed? Is this real?
'I don't get it.' He said while sitting next to my bed and looking at me.
'Get what?' I said confused.
'You can't even talk properly so how can you dance, sing AND do the washing all at the same time?' He said laughing.
'Conor, I wasn't dancing, I was exercising!' I shouted but it only turned out to be sqeaky because of my throat.
'Okay, so I guess you were singing to excercise your voice too?' He said clearly amused by my excuse.
'Yeah, who says you can't exercise your lips?' I said and not even thinking about what I'm saying.
'You know there is other ways, you can exercise your lips.' He said coming closer. I couldn't help but smile.
'And how is that?' I said. I bit my lip.He was coming closer when I started coughing again.
'Look, its better if you don't kiss me because you'll catch it.' I said getting a tissue to clean my nose.
He looked disappointed. 'But you can do a quick kiss on my cheek.' I said trying to cheer him.
He smiled and kissed me on my cheek but not quickly. He took his time.
'So how you feeling?' He said getting up to take his coat off.
'I've got a better question, what are you doing here?'
'Well, I came to take you on a date.' He said sitting down near me again.
'Well, your date is ill. Maybe next time?' He nodded.
'Well bye.' I said getting my sleeping position.
'What? I'm not leaving.' He said.
'But, I'm ill.' I said coughing again.
'Thats right. And your alone. Wheres your mother?' he said.
'Shes got a course abroad.' I said. Then I thought of my mother. Its like I'm decieving her because I just invited my boyfriend who I haven't even told her about. What if she comes back? It will take ages explaining her. I suddenly felt guilty.
'You do look really ill, I'm going to make you soup. It always helps me.' He got up.
'Wait, you know how to make soup?' I said kind of impressed.
'My nan showed me when I was small. She said it could help a sick person in seconds.' He was about to go when I told him he didn't have to do this.
'Yeah I do. Theres no one at home and its my duty as your boyfriend to help you out.' He kissed my hand and went downstairs.
I sighed. I can't believe he is my boyfriend. I just met him a few weeks ago and its like he was mine for a long time. It was like yesterday we were enemies and now we are holding eachother's hands. Its weird when you think about it. I smiled. I put the television on and watched Mr Beans Holiday.
Chapter 19
After 10 mins he came in with my a pot of delicious soup.
'You feeling okay?' He said. I didn't have to say anything, my coughing gave the answer.
He gave me the soup trying hard not to burn himself or me. I took the spoon but he took it off me.
'I'm going to feed you today.'
'Conor you dont-'
'Look I want to. Okay?' He said. He filled the spoon with soup and blowed onto it. He then gave me the soup. I drank it and it was great. I haven't tasted a soup that is this good in my life. 'mhmmm, that is WOW.' I said.
'I know.' He said impressed with himself. He gave me three more spoons while I watched TV. I knew he was staring at me but
I didn't say anything. I just quietly watched TV. After he was done, we watched TV and laughed at the funny parts. I looked at him. He looked amazing. His eyes shined with amusement. His smile was welcoming. I really wanted to kiss those lips. His hair was same as always but looking better. He was dressed up with a shirt and trouser. He must have got ready for the date and look at us, sitting here watching TV.
'So where were you taking me on this date?' I said.
He looked at me and smiled. 'Well, I thought I'll take you to reserved beach because it was so hot.'
'Wait, you reserved a beach for this date?' I said surprised.
'Yeah, I had a table for us two and Cam told me you loved lasagne so I thought I'll get the best chef to make it. And we were going to have entertainment by all of your favourite singers and then I thought we would finish off with us swimming in the beautiful blue sea.' He said looking at me like it was a dream of his.
'I'm sorry.' I said nearly in tears. 'I didn't mean to-'
'You didn't mean to be sick? Oh come on Ruby, no one can help it and anyway its not like I'm going anywhere. I could book it again.' He said taking my hand and coming closer to me. He kissed my head. 'I love you Ruby.' He whispered. I never knew he loved me so much. He loves me more than I have loved anyone. He treats me so well. Why did I say that I can't trust him when hes amazing? I quickly remembered my mum. If I went really close to Conor and then Mum said that I can't be with him, he would hate it. So on the safe side, I will keep a distance between me and Conor.
'I think you should go. A family friend is going to come to look after me and I'm sure he will get suspicious if your here.' I said. First Conor looked offended that I didn't say 'I love you' back but he just smiled. It hurt so much seeing him push his pain away. He put his coat on.
'Anyway, who is this babysitter?' He said. I laughed. 'Hes not a babysitter.' I said. When I said 'he', Conor froze.
'Wait, a guy is going to be with you?' He said kind of angrily.
'Well yeah. Sam is awesome. I haven't seen him for ages. And don't worry, he will look after me.' I said smiling. But Conor looked far from impressed.
'Ruby, aren't babysitters supposed to be girls?' He said coldly. That wasn't called for.
'Theres no need to be sexist, hes just a friend. He nothing like what your thinking.' I said kind of mad now. Whats his problem?
'And how do you know he won't try anything on you? How long is he staying here?' He said like he was investigating me.
'Hes staying for a month and he won't try anything because-'
'A month! Your crazy right?'
'What? you dont understand-'
'I do understand. Your trying to tell me that a guy that you call 'friend' is going to stay in the same house as you? Don't you even once think I will mind? Don't you worry about what I would say?' He shouted. Tears fell down my cheek. He looked like my dad. I'm not lying, everything about him. The anger in his eyes, the red face, the shouting and the way he looks at me. I was scared. I didn't know what to do, so all I did was go quiet. If we were outside, I would have ran but he was at home. He was near the door. I felt the same way as my mother. Helpless. Now I knew how my Mum felt.
When Conor saw the tears fall down, he stopped. He came next to me and wiped the tears away. I couldn't move.
'Ruby, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to shout. Babe, listen I was just jealous. I didn't mean to make you cry. Look at me Ruby.' I looked at him. His eyes were blurry with tears. His face was soft. He looked scared by my reaction.
'Ruby, I swear I won't shout at you again. I'm so sorry. I love you. You know that right? Please forgive me.' He put crossed his hands and sat on his knees looking up at me from the bed. I couldn't help it. I knew he was sorry. His face said it all. I put my hands over his and kissed his hands.
'Its okay. I understand.' I kissed his tears away. He looked so relieved by my forgiveness. I smiled and kissed him on the lips.
After a while, he kissed back but his lips were rough.
'Ruby, I got scared. I thought you might leave me.' He whispered.
'You can't get away from me that easily.' I said. He smiled. This is bad. If he gets this worked up when he thinks I'm about about to leave him, then when my mum tells me to break up with him, Its going to be hard. The doorbell rang. I quickly stopped kissing Conor and quickly looked in the mirror.
'This is bad.' I mumbled. I didn't look that ill any more. I looked normal. If Sam finds out that I was ill, he wouldn't let me out the house for a week. A week! Conor's soup literally helped me in seconds.
'Don't worry.' Conor said looking at my expression.
'Come on.' I said. I don't know how Sam will say about me dating a rich guy. He knows the promise and he will start asking me things that I actually don't have answers too. I took Conor's hand and we both went downstairs. Before I opened the door, I said to Conor, 'Conor, Sam is gay so don't make fun of his clothes, hair or accent. And he will get mad because hes seen your reputation so don't fret if he asks you questions.' I said. Conor nodded. The door bell rang. I was about to go open it when Conor took my arm.
'You know, your very sexy when you give me orders.' He whispered to my ears. He kissed me passionately and gave me fireworks. I quickly let go of the kiss eventhough it
