Chapter 8-Amazing Evan(2)
We talked about my job at the magazine, I didn’t like the fact that I had to sell out at times, but I enjoyed it better than the office job my father wanted me to have. I worked from home, writing and editing my own pieces, it was amazing. This job Nick offered was even better, but it was for a short period of time. It could potentially become something big since I was meeting the right people thanks to Chris and Evan. I just needed to put a lot of effort into my blog. I was certain I could make it though.
“There you are.” I titled my head back to see a blonde haired guy with the most alluring smile ever hover over us, “Hey Zoey, nice to officially meet you.”
I couldn’t help myself, I blurted the words out before I realized how embarrassing it actually was, “My God, that accent.” I whispered.
Evan across me snorted, but that didn’t snap my attention away from the Australian god. Chris didn’t seem to mind that I ogled him, his grin only widened as he took a seat next to Evan, sharing a man hug with him.
“How was the flight?” Chris directed his attention to me, so I assumed it was me he was asking.
“Amazing. Nick spoiled us.”
“Nick is an amazing guy.” Chris leaned back in his chair and shifted his gaze to Evan, “I left my laptop at your place last night. If you could bring it to the club later I’d owe you for life.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Evan grinned at that, “I like the sound of that.”
“You were at Evan’s place last night?” I asked.
Both Chris and Evan shifted their gazes to me. It was Evan who answered me first, “Chris lives next door, he was home late and decided to pop up.”
We had some small talk, talking about Chris’ stay in Japan. I never saw pictures of him with a woman before but apparently, he met someone and they were becoming more serious about their relationship. He was telling Evan he was thinking about moving in together with her. She worked at the hotel he stayed in when he was finalizing things with Nick. A Japanese girl who was apparently the total opposite of Anna. He didn’t go into detail about her and shifted the conversation.
“So I have a big night planned, a famous DJ is playing. A few actors are popping up as well so you guys will have an eventful introduction to the club.” Chris shifted his vibrant blue eyes to me, “They’re Japanese actors, but I’m sure it’s a start for your blog.”
“It definitely is.” I agreed, “I’m curious about the DJ.”
“The guys are coming over next week, Ryan is having his bachelor party here.”
“The game dev?”
“No, the marketing guy.”
Chris shrugged a shoulder, “Can’t remember him, but I’m sure I’ve met him before.”
“You have.” Evan confirmed, “His best man made an exception for Zoey, says she can join because she is fucking hot.” Evan smirked at me, “His words, not mine.”
I narrowed my eyes on Evan, “So you’re saying you don’t think I’m fucking hot?”
Chris chuckled, “You walked right into that one, mate.”
Evan groaned, “That’s not what I meant, Zo. You are definitely easy on the eyes, but I didn’t want to offend you.”
Chris got up, “Things just got weird, I’m getting a coffee while you two figure this out.”
When Chris returned we talked about the club some more. Evan and I were only going to check the club out tonight, trying to get a feel of it. I was curious about the DJ, apparently, he was an up and coming young guy who was very ambitious, getting offers to play at big clubs like Chris’ and Nick’s. I didn’t speak Japanese so I couldn’t interact with the actors who were also coming over to party at the club, but Chris assured me he’d have someone present who could translate so I could interview them and post a few things on my blog.
After our meeting, Chris left to head to the club while Evan walked me back to the apartment building. He had to bring Chris his laptop so he was heading out right away, but he’d be back home in time so we could head to the club together tonight. I was looking forward to it.
“I’m getting back in time with food so we can have dinner before we head to the club.”
I totally forgot about dinner, being grateful Evan didn’t forget, “Thanks, you’re awesome.”
He grinned at me, “I know. I’m heading out, see you in a few.”
While Evan headed to the club I prepared myself for our night out together. I didn’t want to admit it, but I was putting a lot more effort into getting ready because I knew this was the only night Evan and I would have at the club without anyone else present. I wanted to catch his attention and make him say I was fucking hot.
