Lunch break friend

For the people that might be confused with Jezzabelle's job in this book, she's a RUNWAY MODEL but she also does many other things. Such as promotes herself and her many brands (LITERALLY what most runway models do in their life) but since she is a model that has worked literally from rags to riches, she's decided to be hands on with EVERYTHING. She promotes herself, creates brands and beauty products of HERSELF which causes her to work sort of a 9-5 job under a company she is signed under. So YES she does have a desk job that requires her being in the office sometimes.

Jezzabelle Pov

The whole ride to the cafe that we ate at before was quiet except for Bruno Mars voice singing through the car speakers. I didn't think a man like Mister Anderson would be the type to listen to Bruno Mars but I guess I never really got the chance to know what type of man he was before the other night.

After parking his expensive car in the cafe parking lot. Being a gentleman, he got out of the car quickly to open my door for me to get out as well.

"Same as always?" Leanne, the owner of the cafe, asks me since she knows I order the same thing every time I come on my lunch break.

"Anything for you sir?" She asks turning to Alessandro after I nodded to her.

"Just a beer"

"In the middle of the afternoon?"

"Never to early to enjoy a drink"

He replies to my surprised question with a wink as I looked away quickly to hide the way he affects me.

"We'll be sitting over there" I say to Leanne as she nods before Alessandro follows me to the booth I always sit at.

As soon as we sat down, I realized there was a buzzing sound coming from Alessandro's pocket but he was to busy staring back at me to notice.

"Are you gonna answer that? It sounds urgent"

"I'm on break. Besides, I have more important matters to deal with"

"So that's what this is? An important matter for you to deal with?"

"I didn't mean it to sound like that, I'm sorry. I'm really fucking this up. Let me start again, I have a more important person I'd rather be with than any other stupid person bugging me from work. How does that sound?"

His nervous rambling made me laugh which made him smile back with a confused expression.

"You're cute, but I don't want an emergency happening at your work and you don't know about it because you're having lunch with me"

"It's fine. I told my assistant I was taking the rest of the day off, she's probably just emailing me notes about all my appointment from the clients I canceled today"

"You canceled all your appointments today?"

"I told you, you're more important-"

"I'm not that important! You shouldn't cancel important meetings all day if all you're gonna do is talk to me during my half an hour lunch break"

"It's not like it would've made a difference anyways, I haven't been thinking straight in any of my meetings all week since the night at the club"

At his response, I ended up being silent. It wasn't just because of the waitress that was now putting my food and his beer in front of us, but I was actually surprised at how much the night at the club affected the both of us.

I thought the night at the club was affecting only my days at work but he might've also been affected as much as I was. I had to cancel two of my photo shoots and my flight to Italy for the weekend fashion show in Milan due to my mind being all over the place ever since that night.

"Since that night was just a coincidence with me being intoxicated, let's just agree it'll never happen and the-"

Before I could finish saying what I was trying to get him to agree on so we can get the long waited talk over, a loud yelling from outside of the cafe window startled us both.

"Answer your phone! I can see you right now!"

I was surprised to look out of the cafe window to see a man that looked like an exact replica of Alessandro who was right in front of me. How was this even real?

"You've got to be kidding me" Alessandro groans before getting up to walk out as I quickly close the box of my uneaten food so I can grab it and follow him outside of the cafe.

"What the hell are you doing here?! I thought you were in Italy?!"

"How the hell would you know where I was if you keep hanging up on me before I could even tell you about my day?! Do you even know how hurt I am?"

Looking between the two identical men arguing in front I noticed that even though they looked the same, judging by how they talk and dress, they were complete opposites.

Alessandro was wearing an expensive blue and black suit and dress shoes, just like he always was every time I've seen him, which made sense with him being a big shot CEO of a large company.

But the other man that looked like him in front of us was wearing a black leather jacket with a white shirt inside, dark blue jeans and black boots. He looked exactly like Alessandro except for the fact that he had dark brown hair while Alessandro had Black hair.

When Alessandro talks, he had this powerful and stern way he spoke. His words came out strong and straight to the point. But the other man in front of him was talking to him with more of a sarcastic and playful way which made him seem more of an outgoing person compared to his look a like.

"So this must be the woman you've been keeping hidden from me"

I was suddenly taken out of my thoughts when I realized the two handsome god like men in front of me were both looking at me now. Seeing both of them side by side now made me discern their different colored eyes.

"What's your name pretty lady?"

"Leave her alone, Ace"

"Are you the woman that my brothers been dying to keep away from me? If so, I'd say I feel really bad that you chose to be with the wrong Anderson twin"

"Ace! What are you even doing here? I can give you money, if that's what it takes for you to go back to whatever country you came from"

"Wait? You guys are twins?" I ask making both of them stop arguing.

"So that's what we're doing now? How do you hide your hot girlfriend from me and not tell her you have a hotter brother?"

"I'm not his girlfriend"

"What?! You're hiding a girl that's not even yours away from your twin brother?!"

"I'm so confused. I think I'm gonna go, my lunch break is almost over and-"

"Wait! I'll drive you back" Alessandro says cutting me off by grabbing my hand as his twin brother stared at him in shock.

"You really gonna walk away while I'm talking to you?!" He shouts as Alessandro pulls me to his car in a flash so that we can get inside and drive off already.

"I'm sorry about my annoying brother" Alessandro says breaking the awkward silence at a red light.

"I'm just surprised that you have a twin. I'm not mad that you told me, since we barely talk but I'm shocked that there's another person that looks exactly like you" I reply with a chuckle as he looks at me confused.

"He does not look exactly like me"

"Except for the different eye and hair colors, you guys look like the exact same person"

"I don't know why that's so funny though?"

His confused glances at me while he was driving made me burst out in laughter. Not only was him denying the similarity between him and his own twin made him look cute but the sight of his eyebrows scrunched up made me crack up even more.

"I'm sorry" I say breathlessly trying to catch my breath as he parks his car in front of my building and turning in his seat to face me with a raised brow.

"I don't understand what's making you laugh so much but I will admit that it's nice to see you laugh instead of ignoring me for the past 5 days" He says smiling back at me as I let out a sigh finally taking in his words.

"I'm sorry for ignoring you for the past 5 days. I'll try not to do that anymore if you promise that the next time I'm drunk, you'll scold me if I ever try to throw myself at you again" I say putting my pinky finger up making him laugh.

"Okay" He answers while wrapping his large pinky finger around my much smaller one.

"I'll see you next week Monday, Mister Anderson" I say getting out of his car with my box of chicken Alfredo.

"Do you have an appointment with me next week or something?" He asks looking back at me as I stood out holding the passenger door open.

"You were the one that wanted us to be friends and since we both have lunch break at the same time, I'm pretty sure you're my new lunch break friend" I reply with a wink before closing his door and walking away after seeing him smile at my words.
