Chapter 11: Taking Charge

A little shorter. Should have another one up in a couple of days :) I told you guys I'm on a roll haha :D !!

''Shit! Ohh my god, he can't see you here. Hide in the closet or something,'' I tried to stay as quietly as I could. My agent was on the other side of the door and he usually wasn't happy about me seeing people. Thinking it would distract me from my career.

''Ughh, just coming. Let me get dressed first.'' I tried to chuckle but the panic running through me wasn't helping. I was pushing Max through to my bedroom. Where to put a fully grown man? ''In here,'' I shoved him into my en suite and shut the door behind him.

Running to the door to my suite I glanced in the mirror and saw that I was noticeably flushed. My cheeks were crimson. Fuck it. I swung open the door and plastered a smile on my face. He pushed past me and plopped down on the sofa Max and I had just been sitting on.

''Okay so lets go over the days itinerary,'' He started and began to drone on and on for what seemed like a good half and hour. What if Max had to be somewhere? I wasn't listening to a word Tony was saying but instead was considering everything that had happened before he arrived. We kissed for sure but only lightly and the looks were exchanging were undeniable.

''Marissa darling, are you listening?'' I was brought out my trance by his highly annoying voice.

''What? Yeah, of course,'' I tried to be as convincing as possibly but I wasn't sure he buying it by the look on his face.

''What color have you decided?'' Ohh shit.

''Umm, blue?''

''Blue?'' Crap.

''No black,'' I hoped this was the answer he was looking for or I'd be going through all the colors of the rainbow.

''Much better, now can I use your bathroom?'' He asked a question but didn't wait for the answer as he started moving towards my bedroom and the en suite where Max was hiding. I ran on ahead and just as he reached the door I dived in front of him.

''Toilets broken, sorry.'' I was never any good at lying but usually my natural talent for acting came through and saved the day.

''Ohh,'' His mouth shaped into the sound he was making. ''Okay then I'll see you in an hour, I'll just show myself out.'' I think he now thought I was little crazy with my diving stunt. I still had no idea about my plans for the day but I was sure I could remember him leaving a list of everything on the coffee table.

I swung open the door of the bathroom and saw Max sitting on the floor, his back up against the wall, reading Vogue. He glanced above the magazine and grinned a cheeky little smile.

''I didn't know turquoise was the color for the season, must bear it in mind next time I go shopping, '' I couldn't help but laugh at him. He was so immature but in such sweet way. ''I should probably go, I have practice in half an hour,'' He stood up and brushed of his jeans and checked shirt, I was sure only he could pull something like that off.

''I was worried, that you had to be somewhere.'' I smiled weakly, thought of earlier still running though my head. ''Would you like to have dinner tomorrow night?'' The words were out my mouth before I could stop them. I never asked guys out but this time I appeared to be taking charge. A new me perhaps?

''Wow, I usually alway have to ask but yeah. I'd like that.'' He started. ''But as long as I pick you up, you know thats the guy, ughh, thing to do.'' He let out yet another nervous laugh. What is with this guy? He's got a rep for being a womanizer so whats the deal?

We got to the door and both of just stood there awkwardly. This time though he took charge. He put a hand on either side of my hips and brought me swiftly towards him. Moving his hands up to the side of my head, he looked at me with unmistakable desire before pressing his lips to mine in a searing hot kiss, running his tongue along my bottom lip, me granting him entrance easily. Then he pulled away, smiled and walked out the door. Leaving me wanting so much more.

I opened the door to see Leo looking like an excited teenager. Sometimes I swear there's something wrong with this man.

''Well what happened? I saw him leaving your room,'' He sounded like a woman. An eager little puppy. He wanted to know about my escapades more than likely because he wasn't getting any himself.

''Come in and I'll tell you,'' I laughed and couldn't help but smile as I placed a hand to my lips still feeling the tingles that Max had left. Maybe I need a little romance.
