Chapter 3 Flirty, Flirty

• Anastasia asked Iris to go meet Ian in his room before they talk. Iris left for Ian's room. Ian was having his bath. Iris took a deep breath before knocking at Ian's door. She knocked twice and got no response. Iris wondered if Ian was home. She turned to leave, but on a second thought decided to take a looka t his room.
• Iris knocked again before going into Ian's room. She loved his rooms decor. She went through his stuff. Ian walked in on towel and drying his hair with another towel, whistling. Ian noticed someone in his room, a lady but not his sister. He went to her and grabbed her hands. Iris screamed. Ian was surprised to see her.
• "Painful.. Please let go" Iris pleaded "Why are you here? Ian immediately let go of her hands "You sure do have strong arms. You almost broke my wrist" Iris eyes fell on Ian's lovely chest. Her eyes scanned his body and she realized he was on towel. Iris immediately backed Ian and bit her her lower lip and smiled. She blushed hard as her cheeks turned red.
• 'Why are you here?
• "I visited. I'm here to say hi" Iris replied without looking at Ian.
• "Why ain't you looking at me?
• "I'm not familiar with half naked guys "
• "Oh, so you are familiar with naked guys?
• 'No... Why... Nothing" she turned and shut her eyes and immediately backed him.
• "Why? What? Since you have done it, why don't you let me in as well. I'm your childhood saviour" Ian placed his hands on her shoulders. His hands slowly moved down while he spoke. "You made high school miserable for me. I always carried you to the school nurse, 'cause you're always fainting. I treat you to lunch, I even made lunch and dinner for you, slept in the hospital because of you ' he grabbed her waist and Iris made a sound.
• "Uhm...ye..yes, yes. I'm grateful. Later" Iris tried breaking away from him.
• "To where? Let me in hurry. I can't control it " Ian held her closer and his breath was against her neck.
• Iris began to melt. She was struggling to control herself. She held onto her cloth and bit her lips.
• "Are You crazy? Sorry, I mean.... No".
• "You can't even be harsh to me" Ian slowly moved her hair and kissed her neck "Ian please stop. I'm leaving. Please let me go" she tried breaking free "Fine, just grant my wish'' Ian made her face him.
• "What wish?
• 'Give me what you have "Ian smiled and Iris turned pale immediately.
• "Give you... No. Not yet...not now...I..I..I mean...uhmmm" she swallowed her saliva. She could feel the hot sweat on her forehead. Her heart was racing so fast. Is Ian going to make out with her in his bedroom? She fretted.
• "Yes. I'm gonna take it "
• Ian went closer to her. Iris stepped back till she reached the wall. Ian leaned towards her and placed one of his hands on the wall. Iris was scared. He brought his face closer to hers and she quickly closed her eyes. Ian smiled and took her purse from her.
• 'Let's see what's in here"
• "Huh? You took my purse?
• "What were you thinking? That I was going to have sex with you? Oh! Never. Dream on, not even in death. I can't touch you. You ain't my type"
• "That hurts, you know?
• Anastasia and Alice walked in.
• "Your phone. You have a call' Anastasia said handing over Iris's phone to Iris.
• 'Thanks Ana. C'mon Alice'
• "I'll join you two soon''
• " Okay" Iris left Ian's room with Alice.
• "Finally, she's gone. What a pest" Ian said. "It was fun teasing her again"
• "You are the pest, Ian Santiago. Hold on, teasing her? What did you do this time you crazy boy?
• "Nothing. Just teasing and it was fun"
• "You're crazy. Don't ever tease her again" Anastasia left Ian's room.
• "Yen, yen, yen, yen, yen. Whatever '
• Iris couldn't sleep that night, though she didn't get kissed on her lips by Ian, she was satisfied with the neck kiss. She couldn't stop thinking about it. Her heart skips a beat once the memory of what happened at Ian's place comes back. She hopes that someday Ian will love her back.
• Anastasia was in a board meeting when she received a message. She checked the message after the board meeting. Ian's driver had sent three pictures. Ian went shopping with a girl, bought her clothes and other stuffs. Anastasia flared up when she saw the last picture. Ian bought a car for the girl. Anastasia quickly left for where Ian was with the girl.
• Anastasia arrived at the restaurant. She saw them holding hands, smiling at each other. Anastasia's evil eye brows (Ian always called them whenever she's angry) Showed up. She went to Ian and hit him with her bag. Ian was suprised to see Anastasia.
• "You're here? How did you find me? Are you a witch? I could swear that you have some sort of magic mirror which you use to monitor my movement. Ouch! That hurts" Ian complained.
• 'Are you crazy? You spent such amount of money in an hour! Do you want to die?
• 'How did you find me?
• "So you spend all my wealth on cheap girls? I feed you, cloth you, shelter you and give you everything you need, then this? Hey give me the car keys. Take it from her and you Ian come with me if you don't want more scene to be created!
• Anastasia dragged Ian by his ear. Anastasia and Ian left the restaurant with Ian pleading that Anastasia lets go of his ear.
• Anastasia and Ian returned home. Anastasia wanted to slap him but held it in. She kept screaming and Ian watched her. Anastasia left for her room, and Ian for his. He felt quite guilty and scared of Anastasia.
• Anastasia refused to speak with Ian. She finally got out of her room and grabbed a bottle of wine and a glass cup and left for the dining room.She drank that night. She thought of how to get Ian on the right track. She slept off at the dinning room.
• Ian came down to get some water from the kitchen when he noticed the dining room's lights on. He had some water and decided to check out the dining room.
• He was surprised to see Anastasia completely knocked out after consuming alcohol.Ian removed the wine bottle and cup. He carried her to her bedroom and laid her gently on the bed. He covered her up with the blanket and kissed her fore head. He switched off the lights and left for his bedroom. The next morning, he bumped into Anastasia at the stairs. Anastasia ignored him and left to fix some hangover for herself. Ian followed her, apologizing for what he did.
• "Sis, what will i do to get forgiven?
• 'Behave like a real adult "
• "How do i do that? Gush, just give me a reasonable punishment, but forgive me"
• "Punishment huh? You'll grant me a wish at my birthday party"
• "What wish?
• "I won't tell. Get ready till then'
• Anastasia returned back to her room. She thought hard if what to do to change her brother. She thought of getting him married to Iris. Iris had a special effect on Ian. She decided to visit the Grahams. Cathlin welcomed her in and asked a maid to bring some snacks and juice. Anastasia's eyes searched for Iris.
• 'What a good visit. Hope everything is fine? Cathlin asked "Uh... I guess. My brother isn't" Anastasia replied "What? What's wrong with him?
• "Auntie, the way Ian spends money is getting out of hand and i don't know what to do "
• "Give him a position at the company. I guess he'll come around. Trust me'
• "Auntie he has refused to work at the company. He said he's still young to do so".
• "I'm out of options dear"
• "I plan to give him a responsibility that will force him to start working"
• "And what responsibility is that?
• "Get him married soon.
