Young CEO loves me novel Chapter 17

After school on Thursday afternoon, Kelvin slipped inside his car, closed the door and looked at Alisha who was twiddling her hair. Kelvin have been noticing that she only does that whenever she was nervous.

She was looking into space and her bloody red lips were pouted childishly. Kelvin slowly put his right hand on her left hand and that actually got her attention.

She dropped her hair that she was twiddling, looked at his hand that was on hers for some seconds before looking into his eyes. She smiled and he smiled back as he slowly caressed her hand.

"What are you thinking about?" He asked.

"Nothing." she shrugged.

"Where should we go to?"

She smiled widely, showings all her upper teeth and said "Where do you want us to go to?"

They have been spending more time together since Kelvin's unexpected transfer.

"I want you to choose today." Kelvin said.

"I don't have any place in mind, maybe you should choose."

"Okay then." Kelvin replied, started his car and drove out of the car park.

He drove them to a beautiful restaurant which was one of his favorite restaurants so far and was immediately ushered to their seats even though he hadn't made any reservation.

"Good afternoon sir." the beautiful, blonde hair waitress who had ushered them to their seats said as she stylishly winked at Kelvin who smirked egotistically at her before looking at Alisha who also had saw the looks that the waitress was throwing at him.

The waitress adjusted her standing position as she placed the tip of her pen on the checkbook that she was holding and added "Can I take your orders?" She wasn't even trying to hide her actions towards Kelvin which Alisha was finding annoying as the seconds ticked by.

"We will like to start with some drinks." Kelvin said.

"Okay sir" the waitress replied and waited for them to order.

"Anything" Alisha replied the waitress and gave her a look that said 'back off! He is mine'.

Even though Kelvin was Alisha's fake boyfriend and Alisha knew that Kelvin had no obligation towards her, she still find the waitress looks and those of her school mates annoying.

"Okay." the waitress said "And you sir?"

"I will like a bottle of any non-alcoholic wine." Kelvin replied.

"Okay. Would you like to taste the wine?" the waitress asked.

"No. Just bring it" Kelvin replied and gave her a shit-eating grin. The waitress who wasn't expecting this reaction from Kelvin turned red instantly and stuttered for few times before she could pronounce 'okay' correctly.

Alisha eyed Kelvin who was obviously enjoying the attention that he was getting from the waitress.

"Why the jealous look?" Kelvin smirked.

"Jealous? I'm not jealous. I just don't find it attractive."

"Hmmmm..." his eyes twinkled roguishly and he smiled at Alisha who didn't smile back. "I don't know what I should believe- your words or your actions?"

"Whatever." she replied and rolled her eyes.

Minutes after the waitress had delivered their orders, Kelvin's phone rang, he checked the caller ID, made eye contact with Alisha who was trying to act as if she wasn't interested in knowing who the caller was, looked back at his phone and hung up the call.

"Pick your call." Alisha said.

Kelvin waved his hand in a discarding manner and said "It's not important."

"Where?" She asked .

"A party." he replied.

Oh my gosh! Was he really inviting me to go to a party him!? This is unbelievably. She thought and looked at him as if she was thinking of what to say.

"Today?" She finally said while keeping her emotions deep inside of her.

"No, tomorrow."

"Okay." she said and nodded "But, what type of a party and why are you inviting me?"

"A birthday party and I'm inviting you because you're my girlfriend."

"Kelvin." Alisha said as a matter of fact and dropped her hand on the table "You know..." She trailed off and looked around the restaurant to see if anyone was listening in on their conversation "You know...that we're not..."

"Don't finish that statement Alisha." Kelvin warned. "are you going or not?"

"But..."

"Yes or no?"

Alisha slowly nodded her head in response but he wasn't satisfied with that so he said. "Is that a yes?"

"Yes." she replied.

He smiled at her for the first time after the mysterious phone call and reached for her hands across the table. He started caressing them as he said. "Thank you."
