But You’re My Maid novel Chapter 8

Kandy's POV

I was nervous about going to work today so I called in sick at the office because no one was answering Jordan's house phone. Matt said he was going to be home so we could go shopping for my date tonight with Liam and I was totally shy.

I got up this morning looking in the morning to see this huge red and black hickey from last night I tried to cover it as best as I could but any smart person would see that it was an epic fail now I have to find an outfit that would cover this or Liam would think I'm a slut and that I'm just using him.

I heard a knock on the door knowing that it was Matt. I opened it and his eyes went straight to my neck. What did I tell you anyone could still see it through the makeup that how red and black it was. He used his thumb and wiped it off.

"Did Liam do that to you? What is the part vampire?"He laughed.

I chuckled softly at the fact that I was feeling guilty knowing that it was far from Liam who did this. Actually it was his best friend, my boss but how could I tell him that he might think I'm a slut to if I told him I looked down at my feet?

"Wait, he didn't do that, did he."He said more as a statement like he knew he didn't.

I shook my head in no, "If I tell you please don't scream."

"Fine now tell me."

"Mr. Perez, "I said softly that I barely thought he heard me when I looked up at him. His eyes looked like it was as if I had grown two heads, his eyes flickering from my neck to my eyes back and forth.

"When, how, where?"

"Last night when I stayed back to ask him if I came today off he came home drunk saying he missed me, and some shit bout I'm his then he kissed me then threw me on the bed and did this." I said pointing to my neck whining, "I have a date with Liam tonight how am I going to go with this on my neck."

I started crying feeling frustrated with the whole hickey thing Matt rubbed my back trying to soothe down my sobs.

"Hey hey look at me that what you got me for, I still got my hickeys I got even more last night Adam went all ape on me for not answering him on time and you can't see mines I could hide yours for you." He smiled at me.

I felt kind of better knowing that he's going to help me and wait for the guy's name is Adam and their dating. I'm so happy for them. Matt dragged me out bed and made me get dressed he did a pretty good job in hiding my hickey for me which I was happy for we went to this expensive clothing store that was totally out the price range that I wanted to leave but Matt said that he would pay for my dress and I kept declining his offer but he put up a fight in saying he won't hide my hickey tonight if I don't pick off a dress I sigh in defeat and after 21 dressed later I picked out this long green dress with a split on the side.

After the long day and with Adam showing up at the mall arguing with Matt that he didn't answer his calls that I was home all dressed for my date and waiting for Liam to pick me up. I smiled at myself in the mirror hearing my phone buzzing. I hadn't been on it that day so I didn't get to look at it. I had 20 missed calls from Jordan, 10 texts from Jordan, 1 text from my mother saying that she missed me and I smiled. I read the text from Jordan.

"Are you ok?"

"I was told you called in?"

"Where are you?"

"Why aren't you answering your phone?"

"Is it about last night?"

"Hello," I answered.

"Come here now Kandy."

"Mr. Perez, why are you calling? I took today off." I hung up before he could answer seeing Liam come."

"You're gonna wish you didn't hang up Sweets."

I turned off my phone and smiled at Liam as we began to order.

"So tell me how it is working for Jordan."

"If you get past all the insults it's pretty okay I guess, how did you two become friends y'all are so different from what I see."

"Well our parents knew each other after one play day then bam it's like we were two peas in a pod." He laughed. "He's not such a bad guy"

"Of course you would say that," I mumbled

The rest of the night was great we shared jokes our goals, about our past he told me that he was 27 years old he quite old for me he looks so young he told me he had an ex-wife but she has arranged marriage and he couldn't have them, true love, cause she was too young at the time. When it was time to leave he dropped me off to my house and kissed my cheek I kissed his cheek and told him goodnight before going inside. Now I have to face the devil tomorrow.
