A/N: Scarlett with short hair ugh 😩😍 that's one of my favorite picture of her.

Scarlett POV :

The car ride was quite, really quite. I mean I didn't really want to talk with her but that silence was heavy and uncontrollable. Luckily thre was music in the car, what I assume was her playlist. I have to admit she had good taste.

But this silence was to much I wanted to go out of this car and now ! Like the universe was with me we arrived in the parking lot and she parked the car.

I didn't had the time to reach for the handle. That the door was already open and y/n ready to help me to get out of the car.

I couldn't ignore her this time so I took her hand and she helped me to get out. I sent her a smile as I whispered a little "Thank you".

She smiled back and nodded. God this smile. It was a charming and beautiful smile. She had probably a lot of women at her feet with this smile.

She guide us to the entrance of the restaurant and again held the door for me. And I smiled once more to her.

She wasn't that bad after all but she was still the woman that I was forced to "love" and marry and it was impossible.

I'm not gonna lie in others circumstances. I would already be in her bed B.U.T. I can't I don't know I feel like she's hiding something.

Y/n POV :

We sat up at our table and the atmosphere was heavy still surrounded with that uncomfortable silence. I decide to brake it and asked a question.

"So" I started to bring her attention. "How was you day ?" I asked.

"Horrible." She simply said looking at me.

"Yeah stupid question. It was obvious that you didn't had a good day." I say chuckling at the stupidity of my question.

"What makes you laugh ?" she asked probably thinking I'm laughing about her.

"Oh nothing it's just I realised the stupidity of my question. I mean how could you had a good day ? Your father announced you you were going to marry a stranger. Signed a contract so you were trapped and then forced you on a date with that stranger. I mean how could you had said yes to my question ?"

I started to laugh uncontrollably. I couldn't help myself I wasn't in control at that moment and I couldn't t stop.

I started to hear laugh in front of me I looked up and saw Scarlett laughing too. She's probably laughing at me but I don't care.

My god her laugh it's so beautiful and communicating it's alomost addicting. After a little while we finally stopped and looked at each other.

"I'm sorry I don't know what went trough me" I apologiseed.

"It's okay. I didn't laugh like that in a while" she said smiling.

"Scarlett... since we don't really have the choice I mean we're forced to be married but not to hate each other. We could at least try to get to know each other other" I suggested a bit nervous I don't even know why I was nervous.

"Yeah why not we could start with basic questions. Like how was your day ?" As she said that we immediately laughed again but the waitress interrupted our little moment.

"What would you like to take for the aperitif ?" She asked and us a menu.

"Heum I would like a champagne vintage-rosé" I commanded closing the menu and looking at Scarlett.

"Well I'll take the same please." She said looking at the waitress.

"Oh and for the meal can we have more time please ?" I asked looking at the waitress.

"Of course miss Downey. I'm comming back with your drinks and if you need more time I would come back again." As she finished she went away and came back to the bar to make our drinks.

"The waitress know you name ?" Scarllet asked raising her eyebrow.

"Well a lot of people do and me and my parent come a lot here the boss is a friend of my mother." I said while stting a bit more straight in my chair.

"So y/n I never came here what do you advice me ?"

"Everithing is delicious. I usually take the daily plate but tell me what you like and maybe I can find something for you"

"Well I'm not difficult so I'm going to trust you qnd take the daily plate as weel"

The waitress came back and she took our order.

The we started small talk and askew basics question to get to knowneach other. Then the question of animals came on the table.

"You have dogs ? "She asks surprised

"Yes I have two dogs and a cat" I say looking her in the eyes.

"Do you have pictures ?" She asks exited.

"Yes want to see ?" I say smiling at her behaviour.

"Yeah of course !"

I went to my pocket and grab my phone searching pictures of them.

"Okay so that's Hades my cat he's a sneaky ass" I say showing her the picture.

That's Zeus I got him two years after Hades. He can be scary but he's a big bear with the people he knows.

"Wow wich breed is he ?" She asked smiling.

"It's a doberman. He's a pure breed"

"Yeah and the other one he's a doberman too ?"

"No Appolo he's an american pit bull terrier" I show her a picture of him.

"My best friend Chris has an american pit bull terrier too Simba ans he has a mixed breed boxer, Dodger. He's really cute by the

"Yeah He's still a puppy son he's a bit energic and make a lot of troubles" You says still smiling.

"And you ? Do you have pets ?" You ask curiously.

"Yeah I have one je name is Jessie"

"Can I see a picture ?"

"Of course yes"

She show you a photo of Jessie

"Wow she's really cute !"

Scarlett went to say something but she's cutting off by your phone rigging. You look at the phone and saw that that's the company's lawer number.

"Sorry I have to pickup" You say getting up and go outside.

Scarlett POV:

Seeing y/n go out bring me bad memories of my ex who was always putting work before me.

He would dich me or cut our date short to come back to his offices.

He was sometimes mean like "it's my fault" "it's important" "I don't or can't understand" or even "you would know if you had a true job".

The worst is that he wouldn't only blame for that sometimes if he had a bad day at work he would take his anger on me.

He would yell at ne or saying taht all I do is bad then make me think it's my fault.

And of it was a really bad day he would.. he would..

No stop thinking about that Scarlett she doesn't seem to be like him. She's a nice and caring perosn you saw it.

But he was like that too, at first. I was so deep in my toughts that I didn't heard or saw y/n come back.

She cleared her throat and spoke. "Are you okay ?" She looked worried ?

"Yeah yeah. I'm fine I was just un toughts. And with that I smiled truing to reassure her.

The evening went by and I have to admit she wasn't that bad. She drove me to my place and walked me to my appertemt.

We said goodbye the I went inside and she came back to her car.

Your POV:

After dropping Scarlett off. I went to my apartment. Yes I have a penthouse in the centre of the city.

So when I stay at the office late or when I throw a party or have dinner with people it's there and not at my place.

I went to my penthouse and emmidatly went to my bedroom I took off my clothes leaving me in my boxer.

I immediately let myself fall on the bed. And drift off to sleep.

I was so exhausted.
