Easton's POV: (Mature content in this chapter)

We spent the entire night working on the roster and paperwork I'd been meaning to catch up on. I made sure to keep anything Cobra related hidden away, but before I knew it Aubrey had my desk cleared and everything in nice, neat folders with everything labeled so I knew where to find things when I needed them. 

She seems to be good at those kinds of things, I'm starting to think I should have hired her to work in the office rather than out the front at the bar where she has to deal with nasty drunks, and sleazy men.

After a few hours of sorting, she takes a seat on the couch and gets comfortable as she reads over some paperwork. "You know if you closed the business for two days of the week you'd save yourself some money."

"How is that?" I ask taking a seat next to her. 

"If you look at the figures, you're making less money on a Monday and a Tuesday than what it's costing you in staff." She shows me the paperwork. "So really, it would benefit you to close on those two days and use the staff members from those days as extra hands on the weekends."

I take the paperwork from her hands and nod my head. "You're absolutely right."

"I'm always right." She smiles up at me

"You're smarter than I gave you credit for Miss Black."

"I'm sure you would have worked it out for yourself if you weren't always working and had time to look over things."

Standing up I place the paperwork down on the desk. "I'm going to have a cigarette and then I'll drive you home."

"Sounds good," she says in a sleepy voice as she rests her head on the back of the couch. 

After my smoke, I enter the room once more to find her already fast asleep. I look at the time and it's 4 AM. I'm used to going out on benders and not sleeping for days, so for me 4 am is nothing, but Aubrey looks exhausted. I make my way over to the couch and sit down, placing my arm around her and she snuggles in close, her head on my chest.

I wake to the sound of a loud vacuum and rub my eyes tiredly. I look down at Aubrey who is asleep on my chest. Somehow I managed to fall asleep, and somehow I managed to lay down, Aubrey clearly coming with me as she's still snuggled in close. 

I look up at the clock on the wall. 7 AM. The cleaners are here, which explains the vacuum. Aubrey begins to stir at the noise. "Morning," I whisper softly. 

She opens her eyes and looks up at me. "Morning," she whispers back and lays her head back down my chest, then jumps back.

"Now that's the reaction I was waiting for." I give her my usual side smirk

She looks around the room for a moment and realizes where she is. "Shoot, we fell asleep." 

"You before me." I laugh and sit up. "I was waiting for you to wake up so I could drive you home, and somehow I managed to fall asleep as well." 

"You should have woken me."

"Why would I do that? You look so cute when you're sleeping." 

"Stop that." she giggles a small blush appearing on her cheeks

"Come on, let's get you home." I stand up. 

The drive to Aubreys home is short, and her home is exactly what I was expecting, it's small with a white picket fence, yet very well looked after and well kept. 

After dropping her home I made my way back to my place which is twenty minutes in the opposite direction to shower, change and head into Raven corporations to see what's been happening with everyone there.

I key my code into the gate and drive to the top of the driveway, I leave my car parked out the front rather than around the back as I'll be leaving again soon and make my way to the front door, unlocking it. 

Much to my surprise, I enter to the smell of coffee and toast. "Hello?" I call out, wondering who on earth is in my home at this time of the morning. 

"Good morning." Scarlett smiles as she steps out from behind the kitchen wall. 

"What the hell are you doing here?" I ask in pure confusion

"I haven't seen you in two weeks, I miss you." She grins as she undoes the knot on her robe, letting it fall open to reveal her matching bra and pantie set.

"Scarlett, how did you even get in here?" I asked in an annoyed tone. 

"Your cleaner let me in." She shrugs 

"Remind me to fire her." I huff 

"Don't be like that Easton, I missed you, I just wanted to surprise you, that's all." She makes her way over and places her hands on my chest unbuttoning my shirt. 

"Stop." I place my hands on her wrist "This has to stop." 

"Why?" she pouts, "I thought you liked having fun with me."

"I did, I do," I say confused once more

"Where were you last night?" She questions looking up at me. 

"Why should it matter? We're not together." I remind her. 

"The girls at the bar told me you've been spending a lot of time with the new girl."

"What's that got to do with you?" I snap

"Oh, honey." She rubs my shoulders. "You seem so tense." She presses her lips to my neck. "Why don't we just take this to bed and I'll make you feel so much better." 

I should push her away, I should tell her to leave, but it has been two weeks since I've had sex and she's right here offering it up. Sure I like Aubrey, but we're not together, so it's not like I'm doing anything wrong, right?

I grab her and push her hard against the wall. "This doesn't mean we're together, got it?" 

"Got it." She smirks up at me before smashing her lips to mine. She pushes herself off the wall and taking me with her attempts to head towards my bedroom. 

"You know my room is off-limits." I remind her as I pull her in the other direction and push her down on the couch. 

With Scarlett and I, there is no love, there is not even lust, it's just pure sex. I undo my belt and throw it to the floor, then unbutton my pants and pull them off. Scarlett watches me with a grin on her face, I'm going to regret this later, I can feel it. 

"Take them off," I order.

She removes her panties and reaches her hand up to me, I take her hand and fall back down onto the couch with her. In one swift motion, I move between her legs and reach for the side table. I'm stupid, but I'm not that stupid, I'd never not use protection.

I slide the condom over my hard length and enter her hard and fast. "I've missed you so much." She moans out as I pump myself in and out of her, trying my best to ignore what she's saying, to me this is sex, nothing else. 

We continue this way for some time, finally, she reaches her peak as do I and I release into the condom with a low grunt. 

"Look me in the eye and tell me you still don't want to be with me." 

I pull out of her and look her dead in the face. "I don't want to be with you, and I never will" 

She looks up at me with a hurt look on her face. Am I meant to feel bad? How many times can you tell one person that it's purely sex and nothing else until they understand? It's like she wanted me to hurt her feelings, it's like she wanted me to tell her I don't have any feelings for her. 

She reaches for her panties and slides them back on. "I should have listened to the girls when they told me not to get involved with you." She storms around the room finding her clothing, putting it all back on.

Ignoring her I move past her and pull the rubber off and throw it in the kitchen bin. 

"You're a fucking asshole, Easton Raven." She yells and slams the front door. 

"I've been called worse." I shrug to myself and make my way to the shower.
