His Beautiful Addiction-Chapter 318 - Melting Her Heart
The dress she wore was strapless, and so she didn't need to wear a bra on it, so when she turned her white smooth back came into view, Michael gulped as his head started imaging things against his will.
Blinking, he tried to concentrate on the issue in front of him. The zipper was up, so he pulled it down slowly, concentrating his eyes on what he was doing so he wouldn't see the extra flesh exposed, and then he zipped it up.
''Is it done?'' Diana asked, raising her eyebrows.
''Yeah, ''
Diana checked the dress, and it didn't snap again, she heaved a sigh as she propped her chest area upwards, adjusting the gown. Michael looked away immediately; he had seen enough flesh for one day.
''Are you done? '' He asked after some time and Diana nodded.
Coming down from the car, he walked to the other side and pulled open the door for her, Diana held his hand as she stepped out quietly amidst the blinding lights.
Michael held her hand as he walked towards the entrance as the photographers took unending pictures of them.
When they walked into the venue, almost everyone was in already; Diana held Michael's hand as they greeted the people she knew, and a few that she didn't know. Michael was a really handsome guy and he knew how to engage in discussions, so everyone that came to talk to him loved him instantly.
''Hi, Diana, finally we meet! ''
Caroline spoke with a bright smile on her face, she was the female lead for the show and Diana had been looking forward to meeting her. They had many scenes together as they were best friends in the movie.
''Oh my, Caroline! Wow, you're so much prettier in person. ''
Diana smiled; ''I was so excited when I heard that you'll be on the show, I've been looking forward to meeting you. ''
''Ha ha, me too. I'm a huge fan of yours, can I hug you? '' she requested and Diana finally let go of Michael's hand and embraced her in a quick hug.
That was when Caroline saw Michael.
''Oh, Michael, wow, he's really handsome as they say. '' she smiled and stretched her hand to him;
''I'm Caroline, it's nice to meet you. ''
Michael nodded with a smile and shook her briefly. He had seen her in some movies and billboards, she was really popular. He didn't expect that she would be so warm and down to earth, most of these A-list actresses were mostly full of themselves, and it was nice to know that there were humble ones among them.
Just that moment, a man walked to her side, Diana recognized him immediately, he was the male lead and Diana had been on the same set with him before;
''Jeremy, it's been a while. '' she smiled and stretched out her hand for a shake.
''Yeah, was surprised to hear that you didn't want the main character role, this is new. ''
He smiled, his eyes glanced at Michael and he greeted him/
''I'm Jeremy, and you're Michael, don't be surprised that I know your name, everyone in this hall is talking about you. ''
Michael laughed and shook his hand. ''it's nice to meet you. ''
''Yeah, me too, I look forward to being on set with you. '' free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎
''Me too; ''
''I see I'm too small for your eyes, Mr. Jeremy Stuart. ''
Caroline frowned at him and he rolled his eyes; ''I've greeted you three times already today ma'am because you were in every gathering I walked into. ''
Diana and Michael laughed. These two were fun. Caroline had acted alongside Jeremy before so they were friends, many of their fans thought they were together, but Caroline shocked them by dating a singer instead.
Caroline rolled her eyes at him; ''Alright see you guys later, I have to greet a few more people before the show begins. ''
She waved at them and walked out with Jeremy.
They greeted a few more people and before long, the event started. She was among the producers so she soon left Michael's side to sit with the team.
But soon she regretted it as a small actress took her position immediately and talked to Michael. Michael was a very jovial person, so he engaged in the discussion with her.
Diana forced her eyes away from him and tried to concentrate on what they were doing. The cast was called up to the stage to introduce themselves one after the other. Michael seemed like the newest person among them, and as he introduced himself, Diana couldn't help but admire his poise and the way he carried himself when he spoke. One thing she knew was that she wasn't the only one seeing this, she just prayed he would continue to love her the way he did.
In the industry, there were women skilled in the art of seduction, and right now, looking at him with the lights above his head, highlighting his beauty, she wasn't sure if she made the right choice by bringing him in.
After the event ended, Diana greeted the people she didn't meet at the beginning of the show, but her eyes secretly searched around for him. And like she suspected, he was surrounded by people_ women.
She pulled her eyes from him and forced a smile as she talked with the people in front of her. Maybe she was being overprotective, he was a human being and he had a mind of his own and he was capable of making decisions for himself. If he didn't like her, he wouldn't have asked her to be his girlfriend.
She consoled herself as she tried not to feel jealous by everything he did.
Suddenly she felt a hand go around her waist and she looked up;
Michael was standing beside her and he leaned down and kissed her chin, then whispered in her ears;
''Why did you leave me with those women? ''
Diana blushed and tried to look stern. He had a way of melting her heart to a puddle. Just now, she was so grumpy, but he had held her so endearingly in front of everyone and kissed her, as though telling them he was already taken. No-one had treated her so importantly in her entire life.
After greeting the person she was talking to, he turned to leave with her but the director, walked in front of them;
''Diana and Michael, '' he called with a knowing smile;
''Good to see you, Director; '' they met earlier, but they didn't have the time to talk.
''Mm, tomorrow is my birthday, and I'm throwing a party at my place, make sure you are there. ''
Diana smiled and nodded; ''Okay; ''
They talked for a little while before they finally left.
A smile plastered on Diana's chin as they drove back home, she couldn't get over what happened back at the party. She wished she could see those girl's faces when Michael kissed her, but too bad they weren't in front of her. She didn't expect Michael to do that, but all the same, it had made her very happy.
''Why are you blushing? ''
Michael asked, he had been watching her, and she couldn't stop smiling.
Diana shook her head; ''nothing, I'm just happy everything went well today. ''
The car became quiet and no-one talked again until they got to her house.
Diana stepped down from the car before Michael could open the door for her;
He stood in front of her and his eyes looked down at her body; raising his hand, he caressed her arm;
''wear something more covering next time you're going to events like this so you wouldn't catch a cold.''
He scolded, he would have given her his jacket at the party, but he didn't wear a jacket that day.
Diana smiled; ''I'm not cold. ''
''You are, your body is very cold. ''
Diana looked down at her feet briefly as she tucked her hair behind her ear.
''What are you going to have for dinner? '' he asked, he wanted to be sure she would eat something before she slept;
''I have some food in the refrigerator,
''Okay, '' Michael replied. He stared at her for a short moment, and then he kissed her hair;
''Go in now before you catch a cold. ''
Diana bit her lip as she thought;
''Stay the night, it's already late and your house is far from here. You can go back tomorrow. ''
He had stayed over before, so it wasn't a problem. Michael watched her for a second and then he nodded;
''okay. ''
Diana stepped out of her heels as they got into the house, her feet hurt from wearing them for a long while.
''You know your room; you can freshen up while I take a shower before we eat. ''
Michael nodded as he watched her walk into her room.
Diana closed her door and then locked it.
She walked into the room and started taking off her clothes. She didn't know why she was feeling like he was in the room, watching her; she didn't feel this way the last time he was here, maybe because they weren't together then.
She thought of what he was doing now, taking off his clothes?
And talking of taking off his clothes, there weren't any male clothes in his room to change into; thankfully, she had a few large male shirts, she bought during one of her travels, so she searched for them in her wardrobe and when she saw them, she picked one, and quickly slipped into her nightie and walked out of the room,
She went to his room and knocked on the door. After a few seconds, the door opened, but the sight that met her eyes stopped the words on her lips;
