At the mention of money, I could feel Mia tense beneath me and instinctively my hold on her tightened. I wanted to help her out, but I don’t want a repeat of last time by throwing my money at her… I want to help, but I also have to tread lightly because I promised myself I would never let Mia cry over something I did!
I leaned down, resting my chin on her shoulder and brushed my lips on her ear “I have a great idea!”
From my sudden contact, Mia jumped but soon relaxed and lened into me, “hum, and what would that be?” a curious smile stretched across her flawless face, just when I think its impossible for her to become more beautiful!
“How about we get a room with a double bed?” this benefits us both, Mia wouldn’t have to pay and I will get to snuggle into my Mia all night!
“Why Ian, if I didn’t know you any better I would think you’re trying to have your way with me!” she giggled as she tried to act innocent, bringing an even bigger smile to my face.
“Oh, Miss Owens I am hurt that you would think I would do such a thing!” we both burst out into laughter.
“but on one condition..” Mia suddenly went serious and turned to face me “we split the bill..” she really was stubborn, but that just added to her charm because it is the first time a girl loved me for me and not because of my money.
I exhaled, “no need to worry, my family own the hotel so its free anyway” I looked away not sure of how she would take it, if she would except my offer.
She surprised me by gently placing her hands on my cheeks, guiding my eyes back to her intense loving gaze. “sounds great” she whispered then softly placed her lips on mine. It made me so happy that she's letting me look after her, caring for her for once! I pulled her closer to my chest trying to close the space between us, I hated being apart from her.
“I love you!”
“I love you to!”
“Oh, and since I had the pleasure of meeting your mom, I would like you to meet my father. He’s coming back from his business trip from China for a week and I thought he would like to meet my girl!” I’m worried over how my father will react to Mia being poor, but maybe now he will stop forcing me to go on dates with rich daughters of his business partners.
“I can’t wait to meet him! and wait… so I’m you’re girl now!” the corners of Mia’s lips curled as she tried to maintain a straight face, but was failing miserably.
I kissed her roughly on her full, sweet lips, “Yes mine!” I felt her hot breath on my lips from the little chuckle that escaped her mouth causing a twitch in my pants! Ughh! I need her!
Chapter 21- the father figure-Mia’s P.O.V-
“My father said he’ll be here in 10 minutes…” Ian walked over to me and pulled me off his couch and lifted into his arms. “…and have I told you how amazing you look?” I was wearing my most expensive and classy dress… granted it only cost $20, but to me that’s a lot! It was black, short and gathered nicely under my breast making them look more voluptuous.
“you might have mentioned that once or twice” I blushed and lightly kissed him on the lips but he took advantage and crushed his lips onto mine when I tried to pull away. Desire shot through me like fireworks and my hands knotted in his hair pushing him closer. He moaned, a deep, sexy sound in the back of his throat, giving me access into his mouth. I slide my tongue into his mouth and he does the same to me, caressing my tongue. Ian’s hand slowly moves down my body tp my thigh, up my dress to my butt. He groans as he squeezes, his fingers digging into my flesh.
He breaks off the kiss, both of us panting to try and get our breaths back. His eyes filled with lust and burning desire, forcing me to swallow the dryness of passion in my throat. Ian whips his head to the door way and I follow his gaze, realising the reason why he had pulled away so forcefully, his father!!
Oh crap.. what a great first impression. He exhaled heavily and disgustingly looked me up and down, sizing up my cheapness as I did the same to his designer three piece suit! And other than the strong masculine jaw and cheek bones, he looked nothing like Ian! Ian had soft and loving hazel eyes whereas all I saw in his father’s black eyes was darkness and anger. I could tell he hated me already just from looking at me- and I hated him to!
“Hello father” Ian broke off our awkward stare-down oblivious to the sudden tension in the room and shook his father’s hand. “Mia this is my father, Richard Marsh. Father this is my girlfriend, Mia” Ian stood to his side, His back now straight and the look for both fear and respect for his father in his eyes. It sent a shiver down my spine, it was like I was looking at a completely different man!
I didn’t want to disgrace Ian so I pushed my anger aside and forced a smile on my face, “Its nice to meet you Mr Marsh.” I shook his hand, obvious that I was faking my happiness… but I thought I should keep this formal.
“Mia” He took my hand and strongly shook it, proving he had the upper hand over me… what! That’s all he’s going to say.. prick!! God, I am so glad Ian doesn’t act this stuck up!
Ian took my hand and we followed his father into the dining room. The room was huge… but no surprise there!
We took our seats at the top of the table that looked like it could seat 50 people! Richard took the head of the table, whilst me and Ian sat opposite each other next to Richard.
Throughout our meal, Richard didn’t once strike a conversation with me, all he talked about was work, meetings and the business deals he had made in China… purposely leading the question away from anything I could have input on. Ian noticed and tried to turn it so he could include me, but impressing, not once did Richard let it happen.. I would be impressed if he wasn’t acting like such a child!
*buzz buzzzz* Ian phone rang stopping all the conversation. He looked down at the caller ID, “sorry I have to take this..” I shot him a look, with my best puppy dog eyes, asking- begging for him to stay but he stood and answered the phone, miming and apology before leaving the room… leaving just me and daddy-o!
We sat in silence, occasionally looking at each other and exchanging judgmental, evil looks waiting to see which one of us would talk first. Seeing as I was most confused over why he hated me so much, without even knowing me, I began.
“Have I done something to offend…” before I could even finish, his royal arrogant highness cut me off!
“What are your intentions with my son.. are you just his thing on the side? A little fling? Nothing serious right, I mean why would he want to spend time with someone with no financial status…” He swilled the wine in his glace as if he was just talking about the weather!
“Excuse me!” that is all I could manage to say, I am still in shock! Who does he think he is calling me a ‘thing’ so casually!!
“What is it you want? Money? A house? Tickets for you and your mother back to England?”
“We have a house and I don’t want you disgusting money…” then it clicked.. “You’ve done a background search on me!?!”
“I needed to, Ian is my son and I want him to make the right decisions.”
“And why am I not a right decision!” I feel sick! How could such a person act like this.. Ian I need you! Come back quick!
“I’m sure you’re a nice girl, just not the right one for my family. How about you take the money and forget about Ian, huh..” WHAT!
“I don’t want your money! I want Ian”
“I tried to play nice, but if you’re going to act like a spoiled brat then you leave me no choice..” Richard intimidatingly stared into my eyes. They were black and fired with anger and frustration… I could understand why even Ian who was strong and confident was scared of him. “You either break it off completely with Ian, or I can and will make life difficult for you and your mother!” I doesn’t bother me if he hurts me, but not my mother.. that was it, the final straw! My body instinctively took over.
I shot up from my seat, the chair legs squeaking as it slid on the floor and I pointed in Richards face to make my point seem more threatening!
“Listen here Dick! For all the time I have spent with Ian, not once have you been brought up in conversation, nor have you even been home to see your son! so from what I gather, you love your work more than your own son, so don’t you think you can control our relationship after only spending one minute with me! And then you think you can bribe and then threaten me and my family into doing what you say, just because you have money!! My answer is no! I love your son and he loves me, GET USE TO IT!”
(let me just clarify that in England, Dick is actually short for Richard… hehe ^^)
Richard was frozen with shock! Ha! Before Richard could reply Ian walked back in the room.
“Sorry, I had to take th…” he stopped after seeing me stood at the table, obvious tension slicing through the room “is everything ok here?”
“Everything’s fine, I was just telling your father that I think I should be going now.” I fought back the tears that were now stinging my eyes, wanting to fall and instead forced a smile so Ian would let me leave without questions. I needed to leave, I can’t spend one more second with this arrogant, vain bastard!
“Oh ok, are you sure you’re alright?”
“um-hum I’m fine” I began to walk to the front door with Ian, when I turned back to face Richard “It was nice meeting you Richard” i lied through my teeth!
“The pleasure is all mine” Our acting skills were
