Desirable CEO

by Andrew Davis

  "Of all places to sit, your'll choose to sit together on that couch." I raised my eyebrow at them trying to hide my laughter. It amused me how they sit together, hangout together etc, they act like Anabiah and Evelyn.

  "We got used to it. Our mother used to make us do everything together so when we grow up, we will not "Forget" one another." William answered. "So we kinda got used to it." Sebastian shrugged.

  I just shook my head and paid my attention to my iphone.

  "

  I chuckled at the announcement. only Danny will do something like that but he is the best in the business. "We got it Danny, No need to brag!" The girls yelled.

  "Whatever."They said and went back to playing

  "Yeah, yeah not like we didn't know that."They rolled they eyes.

  "What was all that?" Anthony asked putting on hus seat belt.

  "Oh, Danny has been a close friend of our dad ever since we were younger and he will laugh and joke with us all the time, so since he was well experienced I got him as my pilot." I answered and he just said The plane started moving and soon we were in the air. Isa and Eli got tired of the game and fell asleep, the boys had their headphones on listening to who knows what. So I decided to message Selene and tell her about my decision.

  She never reply and my phone began to ring and I rolled my eyes at the caller ID.

  "Yes."I answered

  "WHAT!!??"Her voice boomed through the phine in a pitch scream that caused me to drop my phone and the boys gave me a-what's-wrong look and I mouthed a

  "Please keep your voice down, you nearly caused my phone to break."I said.

  "Well maybe next time you shouldn't text me about things like this amd just call me or tell me face to face." I could picture her rolling her eyes. I walked to the back of the plane and spoke to her.

  "Well I am sorry but I only made the decision now."I said and switched the call to video call. Her face came up on the screen as soon as she accepted it.

  "So tell me all about it."She said. "Well we got to the airport and Sebastian called the girls his princesses and I picked up thatctyey like kids. As Sebastian and William were talPotter to them Anthony came up and started talPotter to me and saying that theyvare not that bad and I thought to myself why not and I said give them a second chance, he suprised me by hugging me and then Eric and Dylan came and Anthony told them and then they hugged me too. So now we are on a fresh start should I say."I said and waited for her reply.

  "Actually wanted to tell you about that. I mean they aren't that bad."She said softly. "Since when?"

  "Since that time, I told you about meeting David and all and you stormed off and they were worried about you."She said.

  "And you didn't tell me."I yelled.

  "Well, I didn't know how you would have reacted so I said just leave it to you and you will give them a chance when you feel like it."She yelled back wisely. "Thank you."I smiled at her.

  "You welcome!" She beamed.

  "I wish you could come with us."I said.

  "Well, you know. You have your family vacays and I have my family vacays which I could not get out of." She sounded disappointed at the last part. "Doesn't matter, next time."I said

  "Next time."She said and I said goodbye and hang up.

  I went back to my seat and put on my earphones and played my playlist. The song

  I don't know when but I fell asleep and when I woke up it was about 5:00 in the afternoon.

  "Good morning, sleepyhead." I heard Sebastian's sarcastic voice and turned to see they all looPotter at me. "Shut up it's not even morning."I glared at him.

  "Wow someone is very fiesty when they wake up."He mumbled but I heard him clearly. "What are your'll even doing."I asked.

  "We are bored and waiting for you to wake up." Dylan whined.

  "What about Anabiah and Evelyn?" I asked

  "They in their own world and they didn't want us intruding." Sebastian pouted.

  "Aww shame." I smirked.

  "It's not funny. Who would have thought that two sixteen year olds could be so fiesty if you disturb their sleep."William said. "Then that's your'lls own fault." I said getting up and getting a glass of champagne from the bar. "But we were so bored!"Eric whined.

  "Your'll sound like 7 year olds complaing to go to school."I laughed at them and they didn't reply with a smart combacks, I looked at them and they had a look of pure shock on their faces. When she laughed it was like music to my ears and I wanted to hear it more often. Her pretty brown eyes lit up, giving it a light-hazelnut colour, maPotter me drawn into them and find out whats hidden in their depts.

  But at the same time those pretty brown eyes makes me so tempted that I get myself in a whole lot of trouble with the owner because of those tempting brown eyes.

  "Stop staring!" She glared at us but I knew she wasn't angry because her pretty brown eyes never get that red glow in them.

  "We I-I...mean...I forgot."Anthony stammered and left and the rest of us went of and left Helen standing there.

  They groaned and I recognised that voice. I looked and saw that I landed in William's lap. "I'm so sorry." I said and tried getting up but he held my waist. Just by having his hand on my waist, it felt like electricity was running through my body and I had this weird feeling that I never had before, but I just ignored it.

  I turned to glare at him but I was surprised to see his crystal blue eyes darkening and I could feel the intensity of his stare.

  I couldn't process anything, my mind was blank. His gaze moved down to my lips and I could feel that weird feeling growing bigger and bigger creating a lump in my throat.

  He leaned in closer and his lips was about a few centimeters from mine, suddenly Danny's voice boomed through the speakers and I jumped into the seat next to him.

  "I was... "I heard William mumble angrily from the side of me but I heard me and pretended that I didn't hear him. I looked around and wondered where everyone else was, hoping they didn't witness what just happened a few minutes ago, and then I heard Sebastain and the girls laughter coming from the back of the plane. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

  I went back to my seat and looked out my window while William did the same. A few minutes later Anthony, Sebastian, Eric, Dylan and the girls came back, they probably sensed the tension in the air because Anthony looked like he wanted to say something but didn't and took his seat. It was now late in the afternoon and the hostess served a light meal and after eating we were just to ourselves, on our phones or ipads.

  I looked out the window and I instantly knew that we were in Italy, as I said before there is just something about this place that sparks interest in me even though I can't speak the language very well but I do speak many languages except Italian, only simple like greetings...that is all.

  I did not know, but I was grinning widely amd Isa and Eliz had to ask me what I was grinning for and then they saw the view from their seats in the back.

  Chapter 26: Florence...

  I woke up to the sun shining through the windows. It took a while for me to adjust to the brightness. I got up, went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face. Once I was done I went out to the hallway and to my sister's room to check on them and they were still sound asleep. They must be pretty tired considering we only arrived late in the night. We staying in the penthouse of a hotel in Florence.

  I quietly stepped out of their room and into the living room. I got to the living room and saw the boys lazing around on the couches.

  "Morning"I greeted and they just groaned. They sounded like zombies. I went to the only seat that was available and sat crossed legged. They looked so funny because Sebastian was layimg upside down with his legs dangling from the back of the couch, Dylan had his head resting on Eric's shoulder and Eric had his head on Dylan's head. Anthony was slouched his head in his hands and William hand his elbow on the armrest and his head in his hand.

  "Your'll look like your'll have hangovers."I told them.

  "We are tired Chrissy,
you know jetlag and stuff" Dylan answered his eyes still closed.

  "I just think your'll are lazy." I laughed and they actually threw a pillow at me but it never hit it just landed on the floor. "But your'll not tired to throw that pillow." I said and they groaned again.

  "So what do you plan doing today." William asked.

  "Since your'll are so tired, I will be going on a little shopping trip and maybe Anabiah and Evelyn can come-" I was cut off by them running into the room. "Yes! Yes!" They squealed jumping up and down.

  "How did you hear me if your'll were so sound asleep?"I asked raisin an eyebrow at them.

  "Because we were just coming down and then we heard you say something about shopping and us so we said yes!" Anabiah replied.

  "We go get ready so we can leave the earlier we leave the more shops we can go to." I laughed when they jumped up and ran to the bathroom to get ready.

  "So you just going to leave us her all alone?" Sebastian said.

  "Yes, your'll have each other to keep company so your'll don't need us." I shrugged and he pouted. "What? Your'll clearly not going to get up so don't pout Sebastian."I said standing up. "We would... if we wanted to."He said and I just walked to my own room to get ready. "Ready to go?"I asked the girls.

  "Yepp!"They answered popping the 'p'.

  "So lets go."I said and we walked out but not before telling the boys goodbyes which they replied with just an okay. We went to a little street of boutiques and bought a whole wardrobe of clothing and shoes. We told them to deliver it to our hotel and after shopping we went for a late breakfast seemingly we had forgotten to eat any. We found a small cafè where we ordered some food and just relaxed for a while.

  After eating and talPotter we decided to head back to the hotel luckily we only had a few bags to carry since we had most stuff delivered to the hotel. We got there and the boys just had a shower because their hair was wet. They were wearing jeans and a button up dress shirt. They looked so casual and yet really handsome with their hair all messed up and their shirts half tucked and half out.

  "Your'll were away for about 3 hours and all your'll come back is a few bags? Normally women would come back with a hundred bags or something." William asked raising and eyebrow at us. "That is just plain stereotyping! Not all women or girls are like that." Anabiah retorted. "Yeah!" Evelyn chimed in.

  "Okay, I an sorry for judging your'll" William apologised but I could tell he was just joPotter.

  "That id more like it."Tey said in unison and went and sat on the couch inbetween Sebastian and Anthony. William, Eric and Dylan sat on the other couch and I sat on the armchair. We turned the tv on and watched movies with the boys explaining most of it because there was no subtitles.

  We watched about 4 movies most of it having English subtitles. The doorbell suddenly rung and Anabiah and Evelyn got up.

  "We'll get it!" They yelled and went to answer the door.

  The boys and I were in the living room when we heard the girls squeal and come rushing back into the living room. "They're here!!!" They squealed and I got up and practically ran to the door barefoot. I signed for the boxes and the girls lifted their own boxes...which was very surprising and went to the living room, I soon joined them.

  "Wow that is alot of clothes..."Anthony whistled.

  "I know right."William smirked.

  "I sat down next to Isa and Eli and looked for my things.

  "Wait!" I yelled and grabbed the rectangular box buried underneath the clothes.

  I opened it andI was so excited I was jumpin around the room.

  "Yes they look even better in person!!"I yelled.

  "What? What is in the box, Helen?" Anthony asked.

  "The only pair of sneakers that I do not own and I am absolutely in love with them!!" I said trying to calm myself down.

  "I thought it was high heels or something the way she reacted. You know women and high heels." Sebastian shrugged. "Well Chrissy is different than most women, okay. She gets excited over sneakers than high heels everytime. She only wears high heels because of work otherwise she will wear sneakers." Evelyn answered.

  "Wow."They said.

  "By the way Chrissy do you still have that thing?" Anabiah asked.

  "What?"

  "You know when you were University you got one and so did Selene." She explained.

  "Yes I still do. I can't exactly remove it, it is permanent you know."I replied. They were talPotter about the tattoo that I got, along with Selene when we were in university. "Have what?" Anhtony asked joining the conversation.

  "A tattoo." They shrugged.

  "Helen you have a tattoo?"His eyes widen in surprise.

  "Yes I do but it was a long time ago."I said.

  "But you don't seem like the girl to have a tattoo." He commented.

  "It was a long time ago when I got it but it was fun yet very painful."I said.

  "Guys mum asked when we are leaving apparently

  "Tell her we will be leaving in 2 hours."William answered.

  "Well I guess we should get ready then."I said and we all went to our rooms to get ready and pack our stuff so we could leave for Tuscany...

  Chapter 27: Tuscany...

  We were on our way to Tuscany taPotter the train which was okay, considering we were riding in first class.

  "Italy is so beautiful...now I understand why you always come here Chrissy." Anabiah sighed looPotter out the window. "It is very beautiful and we still have a lot to see" Cjristy said admiring the scenery as well. "Our family owns one of the biggest wine producing company right here in Italy. Our cousins runs it and

  "Really? That is super amazing! I always wanted to see how wine was made..." Evelyn said, the excitement swirled in her dark brown eyes.

  "You do know you can't drink any of it."Helen said sternly. I have learned that she is very cautious when it comes to Anabiah and Evelyn.

  "Don't worry Helen, we can maybe give them something non-alcoholic?" I suggested. I don't want her to be in a bad mood when we "Maybe grape juice." Dylan said with smirk and the girls looked at him with horrific expressions. "We are not a fan of grape juice."They huffed and crossed their arms over their chest. "Wine is made from grapes. So it is kinda grape juice." William interjected.

  They didn't say anything but sigh in defeat and slouched in their seats, glaring at us which we just shrugged. The rest of the ride was filled with talPotter and laughter that was after Anabiah and Evelyn got over the whole grape juice thing. We reached the train station and there was a man that looked to be in his midforties holding a sign that says "

  "

  "

  "E chi sono queste belle ragazze?

  "Oh this is Helen Potter and her sisters Anabiah and Evelyn." Anthony introduced us. Angelo turned to face me with a smile on his face as if the conversation in italian never happened. "Pleased to meet you Miss Helen Potter." Angelo bowed and looked at the girls.

  "And your'll to

  "Well I guess we should get going your

  We were currently driving to the boys' grandmother's villa. The girls and I sat right in the back while the boys sat in front of us.

  "What do you think they were talPotter about before?" Anabiah whispered so soft that only Evelyn and I could hear. "I don't know, what did they say Chrissy?" Evelyn asked me. "I don't know as well, I only know how to greet in Italian." I shrugged.

  "Well whatever it was, it must have been pretty bad considering William punched Sebastian." Anabiah said still keeping her whisper soft.

  "You girls alright back there?" Angelo asked and we answered with a yes. After what seemed like 10 minutes we finally arrived at our destination. When we got off, the girls were speechless. "Wow!" They exclaimed. The Villa was huge, it was like an old, italian palace with the huge wooden door, big glass windows, stone wall and vines growing on some parts of it. They even had pond with different types of fish.

  After admiring the house we went up to the door and rang the doorbell. An eldery but very beautiful woman open
ed the door and as soon as she saw William she trapped him in a tight embrace. "Aw

  "Oh my! Where have my manners gone! I am pleased to meet you Helen!" She beamed and surprised me by hugging me. "I am

  "It is a pleasure meeting you Rosa." I said and gave her a smile and she returned it.

  "And this must be the famous Anabiah and Evelyn I kept hearing about!" She looked at my sisters and went kiss their cheeks.

  "Well don't stand there like statues, come inside!" She instructed and we all went inside. The interior of the house was just as beautiful as the exterior. It was modern but still had it's old, italian palace like touches. There was a grand staircase with a red carpet running from the top of the stairs right by the door and a huge glass chandelier that provided most of the lighting in the room.

  As we walked to the living room, I saw pictures of all family members hanging on the walls. It felt very comfortable and homey.

  "So your name is

  "Yep, My name is

  "Why were your'll laughing earlier?" Anabiah turned around and asked. I was also curious to know about the cause of their laughter.

  "Because nonna asked William if he was maPotter enough money as a big CEO,that he couldn't come and visit her." He said trying to hold in his laughter. As much as I know William, he has feelings for her but he doesn't want to let her know, not because he is a afraid of rejection, he is afraid that he might end up hurting her and losing her forever. I must admit it Helen is too good to be true and she can be gone in a blink of an eye.

  Helen is a good person and we don't want to end up hurting her, so we decided to just be friends with her, but knowing William he can't control his feelings for her any longer than he already has and he might just crack any moment.

  Chapter 28: Meeting The Family...

  We got to the living room and everyone was seated, familiar faces and some I don't know. "Hey everybody the boys and girls are here!" Rosa yelled and they all turned to us and came rushing to us.

  "Will! How great it is to see you again!" A man that looked to be around William's age approached William.
