"But do we have to?! You just got back!!!" Felix whines and fake cries on the bed as I get ready in the mirror and see his reflection behind me
"I know honey but the gala happens after every client is signed" I haven't seen Felix for 2 weeks, I've been back an hour and we have to leave like now. "Felix please get dressed" I turn to face him as he pouts on the bed in his underwear
"Or I could not do that, you can join me in bed and we stay in instead" "We can't do that" I turn back to the mirror.
Getting out of bed he walks over to me and wraps his arms around my waist and leans his head on my back "come on babe" he tries to unbutton my shirt
Turning around and grabbing his face "do this for me please" I look in his eyes "Donovan..." my name escapes his mouth
"Say that again" I run my thumb against his soft plump lips "Donovan-"
"Slower" I demand
"Do... no...van"
I pull his head to mine taking in his lips between mine, his luscious and delicious lips perfectly flowing against mine "drives me fucking wild when you say my name like that"
"I want to stay" his voice replies low, the tone he knows turns me on. I let go of his face and walk away "Donovan please"
"Stop it Felix" I walk into our shared walk-in closet, scanning his side of the closet I grab a shirt and a suit.
Felix walks in following behind me as I walk around the closet picking clothes and shoes for him "you always do this every single time!"
"Put these on" I hand him the clothes
"Don it's 2 hours, we can't last that" his eyes beg
"2 hours is nothing! We can do that in our sleep I know we can" I want nothing more than to spend every waking moment next to this man but right now I have to say no to him, and it's not easy. "Please honey we can do this" I walk to him about to kiss him
"Don't kiss me" he stops me as our lips are about to touch "you're not allowed to kiss me or touch me until we step foot back in this house tonight" he walks out of the closet leaving me behind.
A challenge I cannot win.

"Donovan! Felix! You boys look beautiful!" My boss's wife opens her arms to us as we walk into the room
"Lisa how are you?" Felix asks as we all hug "I'm great darling how are you?" They face kiss
"Oh I'm amazing just amazing" he fakes it all "how are the kids?" "Bad" she laughs "as always"
We all laugh "be nice honey we have to go home to them" my boss walks up to us "Mr. O'shay how are you?" I greet him and reach out my hand
"Welcome back Donovan, I'm doing good how are you?" "I'm great sir" we all hold a smile.
"Nice to see you again Felix" they shake hands
"You too Warner"
He turns to me "can I borrow you for a bit Donovan?"
"Sure" we walk away leaving Felix and Lisa laughing together.
My boss and I walk across the room and he starts to speak "you did a fine job Don the phone's been ringing all week!" He pats my back
"Thank you sir" my eyes scan the room and land on Felix, I watch as he works the room only I know he can. Confidence radiating off of him just makes you want to follow and praise him. My boss continues to speak but I don't hear any of it, my eyes are locked on Felix as his bright smile continues around the room.
"Meet me in my office first thing tomorrow morning and we'll finish this conversation alright Donovan?" He finishes and I come back to remembering nothing of what was said
"Yes sir" I reply anyways.
He walks away and the first chance I get I rush to Felix across the room who's talking to someone from my office "hey can I talk to you?" I reach my hand about to place it on his back but Felix shoots me a look and I stop
"I'm talking to frank here, I'll talk to you later" he calmly snaps at me
Rolling my eyes I walk away. Going to the nearest waitress I grab a drink from her tray and chug if "hey"
I turn to find my assistant walking toward me "Rhiannon hey" I kiss her on the cheek when she reaches me "you look beautiful"
"Thank you. You look very handsome, where's Felix?"
"Over there being a brat" we turn to look at him and she laughs "He looks like he's having fun"
"It's fake, it's all fake" "What'd you do?"
"Nothing!" I quickly defend myself "I came home and chose my job now he's mad"
"Maybe you just think he's mad Don. He doesn't look mad to me he looks happy" we continue to look at him. The more we stare the more I fall in love with that man "and that's why it's all worth it"
Rhiannon says
"What?" I snap out of my trance and turn to her
"The way you're looking at him, it doesn't matter how mad you guys are because at the end of the day you stand across the room gawking at each other"
"I'm not gawking" I turn my body away
"Sure you're not. I'm gonna go say hi, you stay here and continue to pout like a 3 year old baby" she walks away and I continue to pout.
The night continues and I walk the room talking to people and trying my best to not notice the only man I see everywhere I look. "Can I get everyone's attention please?" We hear on the microphone and turn to the stage "good to see everyone tonight and thank you for coming to the client gala. Please help me welcome the agent that just made us almost 38 million dollars, Donovan Fisher"
