THE CONTRACT : AN UNDYING LOVE 7 Chapter Seven

Still not sure what I was going to wear for this "date", I'll have to ask him where we we're going, so I can dress for it.

Throwing the gown I was holding on my hand on the bed, and walking out to Chase's room.

I nocked twice but there was no answer, I wanted to open the door but I stopped myself and turned back. I walked to Jason's room, nocking twice again there was no answer. Could the both of them have gone somewhere or what.

I checked the parlour and the kitchen, there was n.o.body around, I was alone and that was creeping me out, I thought everyone was around.

I walked back to my room, looking around where my phone was, sighting it, I walked up to the table it is and picked it up, unlocking it I dialed Jason's phone first, but it directed me to voicemail. Jason is always available. I decided to try Chase's and it was the same thing. This time I was getting scared.

None of them mentioned going anywhere to me, they would have during breakfast or lunch, and now this was almost 6pm. Immediately I changed into a jeans and a tank top, picking my car keys and walking out.

I have no idea where I was going but I can't just sit here.

Opening the main door, and redialing Jason's phone again, same thing. I was about dropping a voice message when I heard a car engine. I looked up immediately and saw it was Chase and Jason, after they parked, they got out and were giggling to something they said.

"What's so funny?" I break the laughter, making them look at me and Jason was startled

"Sistur" Jason said smiling and coming forward to me

"Don't Sistur me" I said, emphasizing the Sistur.

"Where the h.e.l.l did you guys go to, I was worried sick, all your phones are on voicemail" I finished looking over to Chase. He walked close and smiled.

"I wouldn't let anything happen to your kid brother, we were just out having fun, sorry" he said rubbing Jason's head, like a baby. I exhaled and set my lips on a straight line.

"Okay, Jason call me next time, you're still a kid, you can't take care of yourself okay?" I said to Jason, who was now frowning

"But Chase was with me" he defended. Shaking my head, I smiled.

"I know, but just be careful in case he's not with you, okay" I said holding his shoulder and he nodded.

"Good" I finished and he left.

"He was really okay Amy, but I'm sorry I didn't tell you we were going anywhere" Chase apologized, making me turn to face him.

"Its okay" I smiled. "Where'd you guys go to anyways?" I asked and he just shake his head. "Not telling, now hope you're getting ready, we're going in about an hour" he said changing the topic, and that reminded me immediately I still don't have something to wear yet. Opening my eyes wide, making Chase do the same "You've changed your mind?" He asked out of a concerned voice. "No, but I might if I still don't know what to wear" that made him relax.

"Don't worry, I got you something" he said, turning and walking to the car, he opened the back door and brought out a bag, walking to me he handed me the bag. Igniting my brows "you took me shopping and now I have a closet full of new wears, you didn't have to buy anything" I said to him not accepting the bag. He smiled and held out my hand, and handed me the bag.

"This is special and its for our date, please don't reject it and just go inside and get ready" he said releasing my hand. "Okay" I said exhaling. "Thanks" I said before turning away, and he just smiled.

I didn't want to look too flashy so, I just applied some powder, lipstick and mascara. Chase got me a gown stopping just a little bit above my knee, it was a red gown with a short hand stopping at my shoulder, it looked simple and I love it.

Getting my purse I picked my black heels and putting it on I began to step out.

Immediately I saw Chase I became nervous and wanted to immediately to back and tell him I can't make it, I've never been on a date like this before and I was more than nervous. Chase turned and saw me standing, he smiled but then discover I was not in a smiling mood, he walked up to me

"What's wrong Amy?"

"I'm nervous and I don't think I can go with you" I replied

"Don't worry Amy, I'm your husband remember? Come on let's go" Chase said and gave me his hands to take and exhaling, I took it smiled and walked down with him.

He opened the door for me and I got in.

We drove for some minutes before we got to the restaurant, Chase immediately came out to open the door for me again before I stepped out.

"Thank you" I muttered and he smiled.

We walked in and a waiter came to meet us, and took us to our reserved place.

"What would like to take please? The waiter asked and Chase looked at me for an answer.

" uhm water for now, I'll go through the menu and see what I want" I replied smiling

"Same here" Chase said to the waiter who nodded and left.

"Do you not like this place?"

Chase asked

"Oh I do, I'm not just used to eating in an expensive restaurant like this" I replied.

The waiter returned with our water..

"Do you want to make your order now?" He asked and I looked through the menu seeing the prizes I almost chocked on my own breath, I bent down to speak to Chase

"They're too expensive" I whispered

"Order for anything you want Amy" he replied, exhaling I nodded.

"I'll have the 1975 Dom Perignon Oenotheque and nachos with extra cheese" I answered and he nodded, turning to Chase "I'll have the same but my Nachos with extra cheese and jalapeños" he replied and the waiter left to bring our foods.

And in no time we were eating.

We talked and laughed, and Chase asked about the death of my parents and I told him everything.

"I'm so sorry Amy, it must have been hard for you"

"Well, I survived and thanks to you too" I replied and he smiled.

"I lost my mom too, a long time ago, and when I was done with school I started working for my Dad, but I have to work harder else my Dad threatens to hand it over to my cousin" Chase explained, and I allowed him to continue.

"I can't let him have the company again, he stole my woman when we were in school and now he wants my company, the company that I've grown to love and take care of, I can't just let it split out of my hand" he further explained sipping his wine.

"I understand but don't worry you won't loose it" I said and held his hands.

He smiled at me "thank you Amy.I'm sorry about how I've been treating you" He apologized and I just smiled.

We finished eating and headed out, it was getting dark already, Chase drove us home and getting inside I thanked him for the date and we went to our rooms, before entering inside my room I checked on Jason, and saw he was asleep already. Sighing, I got inside my room and changed, washed up and went to bed.

CHASE'S POV

I woke up and went for some run, when I got back, I met Amy cooking and how delightful I was because I was hungry already.

"Good morning" I said to Amy and she smiled "morning runner, go change and come get something to eat" she replied and I nodded and ran in to shower and change and come down.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

After the breakfast, I left for work with Philip dropping me off, stepping out of the car, he called out and I turn to him

"Uhm I would like to take some break from work, my wife's not feeling okay and the children are busy with school so I was thinking of staying at home with her for sometime" Philip went ahead to explain after walking up to me

"I'm sorry about that, please send my regards to her. And when do you intend on partaking on this break?" I asked

"Well after the event this week, I figure you'll be needing your driver" he replied

"Okay good idea, you can even go home now" I said, and he looked at me surprised

"What's wrong?" I asked not sure why he looked surprised

"Well you're been nicer than usual" he trails and that made me laugh.

"Come on old man, I'm going to work" and I began to walk inside my company.

I got inside my office and surprisingly I saw a lady sitting on one of the chairs and walking up, she noticed my present and immediately stood up to face me, I was surprised to see her again.

"Judith?" I asked very surprised, she smiled and made a hand gesture

"Live and direct" she answered laughing, and we hugged immediately.

Judith was my childhood friend whom I use to be very close to, she was my best friend but I began to have some feelings for her, but she didn't like me then as a boyfriend rather she said she thought of me more as a brother, I was not happy with that, she moved from where she stayed before and we lost contacts and its been a very long time.

"Wow you've changed, you're more prettier than you use to be" I said honestly.

"Oh please, speak for yourself, you've changed too, you're now the most eligible bachelor in town, I've seen you on magazines" she said winking. I smiled and gestured for her to sit and she did.

"So, what brings you here again?" I asked taking a sit too, she just shrugged and smiled

"Guess I miss home and I got transferred here" she explained but I didn't understood.

"Transferred here?" I asked, she smiled and relaxed her back more on the chair "I work for Chelston enterprises and we're in collaboration with you guys here, so I got transferred here for the new line you're lunching, just for the time being, well unless I like it here and decide to stay" she further explains and I didn't like it. "Oh uhm I see" I muttered. Standing up "I should start work now, I just wanted to see you" she said and began to leave. "See ya" she said and I waved at her and she left.

This is so not gonna be good...

Hours later

I was hungry already, seeing that it was time for lunch, I decided to drop my work and go out to eat before I die. Standing up and picking my phone, I heard a nock and I answered "come in" and the door opened, turning I saw it was Judith "Hey so I was hungry and thought I should ask you to eat with me since I don't know places here" she said, folding her hands and smiling. "Sure, not a problem" I picked my keys and we left my office.

I was taking her to the cafeteria but she stopped by holding my arms "come on, don't tell me there's no nice cafés around" she said, I was about answering but my phone began to ring, excusing myself, I brought my phone out and saw it was Amy calling. "Hey Amy" I answered

"Hey, I uhm made lunch and thought I should bring you some, I know you'll like it so what do you think?" she asked from the other end of the phone. That brought a huge smile to my face, I love eating her food "Okay I'll send-" but I was cut off by Judith, "oh come on Chase I'm starving, let's go" she whined. And I know Amy definitely heard that

"Uhm who's that? Are you busy?" She asked, I didn't know what to say.

" uhm don't worry when I get home I'll take it okay? I'm sorry but I gotta go, see you soon" I explained, there was silence "oh okay take care" she reply and ended the call.

"Finally, please I'm starving" Judith said dragging me along.

I don't know why I feel this way but I don't like where this is going, I hope I don't have any feelings for Judith anymore cuz this doesn't look good at all....
