Chapter 44

Eric came back after Octavia had waited for three hours. She had lost hope and wanted to leave, but he showed up as promised. He met her already dressed up, looking so sexy and dolled up.

“Are you leaving?” he asked.

“I have to get going,” she said and smiled at him.

“Octavia, can I say something?” he asked.

“What’s that?” she asked.

“I have been a playboy for a while now. I don’t care who it is, be it my client or a girl I meet at the club, I make sure to get laid. My intentions the first time I set my eyes on you were to sleep with you and then dump you, but my mind won’t leave you alone. You are all it could think about, and even when we met coincidentally, you were looking so cute with your feisty attitude, one of the things that made me like you.”

“I am sorry for blabbing; I haven’t done this before, so it feels kinda weird. I wanted to do it at the date before the plans changed.”

“Octavia, will you be my girlfriend?” he asked.
