Chapter75

He immediately closed a laptop that was in front of him.  He stared at me, expressionless. "What do you want?" he asked, lazily. I folded my arms. "You. And I'm not leaving this office until you give me what I want." * Ace's POV: Sawyer was one of the ninety nine problems I had to solve. She was a real glue pot. "Sawyer, I've been clear with you, I have a girlfriend, that I love." "You're not just leaving me, Ace. You're not!" I raised a brow in total disbelief. "What? Were we together in the first place?" I stood up, "Sawyer, leave my office. Don't make me force you." "Ace, you would have to, cuz I'm not moving an inch! Don't you understand that I love you??" "That's enough! Out!" I grabbed her arms and started leading her to the door. "Wait, wait, wait!" she screamed and got out of my grip . "What again?" She stared at me in the eyes. "If you won't be with me then give me one last kiss. Please. And I promise never to bother you again." Lies. I rolled my eyes. "Just get out before I lose my–" I hadn't finished my sentence yet when Sawyer grabbed my face and kissed me forcefully. Immediately she did that, someone got into my office without knocking and I heard a gasp. "Sawyer?!" Heather's voice caused me to step back in shock, pushing Sawyer away. We both faced Heather. The look on her face broke my heart instantly. "Heather, I–" I started but she cut me. "Why are you kissing my boyfriend??" she asked Sawyer with a frown. "You're what??" Sawyer turned to me, "You're her boyfriend?! She's the famous girlfriend?!" Great. * Sawyer's POV: Ace had rejected me because of Heather? Because of her? Oh no! I could not let this be. I had to ruin everything. "You rejected me because of her??" I asked angrily. "Ace, what is Sawyer talking about? What is all this?" Heather asked, tears filling her eyes. I turned to Ace. "Ace, if I'm not having you, nobody will!" I declared. "Sawyer, please don't–" he began but I cut him and turned to a sobbing Heather. "Sorry sis, but this guy here is mine. Mine! He liked me first. He has always had. He's a fuckboy you don't wanna deal with!" "What?" Heather turned to Ace. "Heather, no. It's not what you  think." "Then what is it?" I cut in, "Don't listen to him. He fucked his way up to this position!" I smirked. Heather turned to me in shock, "Yes, Heather. What did you think? He had sex with me in his apartment just so I could give him my vote!" I spared nothing. "Ace, is this true?!" We looked at him, he was speechless, he was shocked. "N– no, Heather. It's not what you think! I can explain." Heather approached him, her eyes red. She was furious. "Then explain!" she growled. When Ace was silent, she slapped him hard across the face. Heather was very angry. He tried to speak but she raised a hand and stopped him. "Stay far away from me. I hate you," she ended and walked out the door. I turned and for the first time, I saw tears in Ace's eyes?? * Ace's POV: The moment I saw Heather cross that door and leave, I lost my senses on the spot. I was mad and started throwing every single thing in my office, on the floor! Breaking all the wine glasses, all wine bottles, tossing every paper and document on the floor! I even broke the filter and flipped my office table upside down, sending all machines, crashing to the floor. Heather. I'd just lost her already?? And I couldn't even tell her the truth! All this was whose fault? There was a piece of broken glass on the floor. Without thinking, I picked it up. I turned furiously with the intention of hurting Sawyer and to my surprise, she'd ran out of my office a long time ago. I sat on the floor, holding my head in my hands. How would I explain things to her without her thinking I was some bad person. Heather's POV: I entered the apartment in tears. I was so angry. I'd cried so much my vision was blur and my eyes were swollen. "Oh my gosh, what happened?" a surprised Shirley rushed to me. She sat me down and did everything to calm me down. When she'd succeeded, I told her everything. Of course she too was shocked. "Ace?" she asked in surprise. "Yes. I was shocked. It hurts me so much. Do you know why?" "Why?" "Because I think I'm falling in love with him. Heck, I think I love him. I can't believe my heart is this weak. I- he makes me so comfortable, you know. I feel like I've always known him. This has never happened to me before," I stated, sniffing and threatening to sob again. Shirley wrapped her arms around me, holding me tight and calming me down. "Calm down, honey. Please. I know you're furious but please, calm down." I told her about what Sawyer said. "Heather, Sawyer might be lying. You know how she is. And Ace is really into you, in my opinion." I got out of her grip before staring at her. "Are you defending him?" I asked, slowly. "I'm just saying I don't believe-" I stood up and shook my head. "I don't wanna talk about it anymore, Shirl. I need to rest. My head hurts." Before she could answer, I left her presence and went to my room where I sobbed endlessly. * Ace's POV: I reached my apartment in a horrible state. Keith was waiting for me and was surprised when he saw what I looked like. "Dude, what happened to you? Your eyes are swollen." I told him everything. "Sawyer, did that?? That bitch deserves hell, what fuck? But why don't you tell Heather the truth, Ace?"
