But now i'm your daisy.

parker's pov :

I'm distracted.

No one noticed that yet, but it bothers me. List of armories was replaced by her face. I even ignored Nora for a couple of times because i was thinking of her. Damn it, Peter, get a hold of yourself.

Can you believe i'm at Starbucks, waiting for the time to pick her up.

"Sir?" Nora said, she came to take my signature.

   "Yes?" I said, eyes still on the lab top, dealing with my delayed plane.

   "May i ask what exactly you plan for (L/n) girl?"

   I stopped typing, looked at her and replied. "I believe you already know, Nora."

   "I'm not sure."

   "I like the girl, if that's what you ask." I replied genuinely.

   "No, i already know that. I just..." She tried to figure the right words, i was confusing a bit then I realized it.

   "Oh? No. I'm not doing all this just for the sake of sleeping with her." Even though that'd be nice.

   C'mon, Parker. Don't be ridiculous, she's seventeen.

   "Forgive me, sir." She bowed a little. "So what it's gonna be?"

"I honestly have no idea. I just want to be near her."

   I drank my coffee, knowing it will keep me awake at night. I don't care, even if I don't drink i can't sleep anyway.

We waited for the classes to end, Nora went back to work at our tower, then i drove my car in front of the school. So many students cared about me being there.

Here she comes, saw my car and turned nervous. She looked around to the students that were watching us, she doesn't like being watched, she doesn't like being the center of the attention.

On, fuck. Did I upset her? I hoped not.

She hurried and got in the car.

"Go." She said softly, then realized she had to add sir. "Please, go, sir..."

I drove off.

"I thought you'd like to keep this secret." She told me.

"That you're working for my company?"

"That you picked me up yourself." She look really concerned.

I said nothing, I actually did it on purpose.

"You're so kind to me, but we need to keep distance in public, people will think otherwise." She was very serious.

"Are you still not understand." I said, eyes on the road.

"About?"

"I don't want to keep a distance from you."

She was speechless, panicked, her cheeks brushed, i'm having fun watching her confused if i'm just her boss or i want to be more.

She didn't say anything, mostly stared outside the window, i noticed she observed my car, it put a smile on my face a bit.

"Oh. Your new phone." I almost forgot.

She took the box of Iphone (The newest when you're reading.) from me, eyes glowing like she was looking at gold.

"I cannot take it." She said.

"But you want to?" I asked, she look at me still.

"Yes." She said.

Nice. I love honest person.

"Keep it."

She carefully opened the box and checking everything. She then figure the way to open it and tried the function without needing anyone to teach her.

Finally we arrived at PK mall, she noticed and got excited.

"I've always wanted to be here, but everything is so dang expensive!"

"I'm the owner of this place."

"Oh... it's expensive in a good way, because the products are very quality...."

I smiled softly at her. "It's okay, dear."

"Sorry...sir..." She murmured.

She watched the staff taking me to my personal parking spot.

"I didn't know PK was from Parker." She said.

"Tony bought this mall for me on my sixteenth birthday." I told her, parked the car and got out of it.

I walked over to open the door for her. She got out, grabbed my hand to stand up, saying. "Mr. Stark must be a very kind person, that's why you're very kind too."

"He's been like a father to me all this time."

"I'm glad."

Oh, no, she looked sad. She wanted a father, i can see it in those eyes. I discovered a strange feeling of guilt in me for not being able to give her that.

"Let's get inside." I told her, she nodded.

We walked in, this place looks fine. Nothing to complain about, She was impressive.

We headed to the makeup center first. I walked behind her a little, let her lead the way. We went inside Dior. Ms. (L/n) was confused, she didn't know what to choose.

"What is this?" She asked the staff. How pure can she be.

"Concealer."

"..."

"For covering up dark circles under a person's eyes, madam."

She asked a couple things that she doesn't know, something else she already know what it was, I watched her just walking around, trying to pick stuff, it enjoyed me more than any tv show.

"How it's going?" I walked closer to her.

"Sorry for keep you waiting sir... I don't really know what to pick."

"It's okay." I told her. "Hey."

I called the staff, she looked very stressed out, thinking about getting complains by her biggest boss.

"Just grab something for us, from foundation to lipstick, all of it. The best of them."

"Oh, no, that'd be so expensive, only one or two is enough, sir." She told me.

I didn't listen. I'm rich. I will buy them for her.

I told the guard to hold those bags for us, she look very concerned.

"Now clothes, follow me." I demanded, she obeyed.

It's impressive how she can't pick a makeup but she can pick clothes very well. She chose the one that are not too expensive, very well made, and classic.

God. I like her. The more i forced her to stay nearby the more i can assure myself that this is not just a delusion.

I want a girl like this by my side.

"That's all i can pick, sir. Hope I don't have to bother you again."

   She still thinks she's bothering me when actually i am bothering her.

   I told guards to put my stuff in the car while i take care to the restaurant. Ms (L/n) took a while to order she ended up with only one menu.

   "That's it?" I asked.

   "Yes. Sir."

   "Order more."

   "I think it's enough."

   She avoided my gazed, she didn't obey a simple command. But surprisingly, instead of getting mad or annoyed at her, i let her be and order something for her myself.

   "Jon." I called my guard. "Paper."

   He walked back with a paper in a file, (Y/n) confusedly looking at it, I grabbed out the paper and put it between us, on the table.

   "It's the contract."

   "Oh."

   She slowly reading it, i started to get a little nervous since she read every single line on it, i was hoping she would accidentally ignore and sign them.

   "Follow every order, without any condition..." She whispered, her eyebrows twisted. "Every order?" She asked me.

   "Yes. Every order." If i tell you to take off your clothes, you have to do it, dear.

   She's seventeen, Peter. It's illegal. I told myself.

   "If you tell me to jump off the cliff, i have to do so?"

   "Why would i order that?"

   "I'm just trying to understand."

   I didn't say anything else, she went back to reading it. Then asked me again. "2 years contract?"

   "We can extend it."

   "And by two years, i have to follow your orders, i have to work at your company, and i'll get my scholarship, payment, etc."

   "Exactly."

   "What if one day I don't want to do it anymore. If i feel uncomfortable?"

   "If you sign, you have to do it anyway."

   "And if I don't?"

   I sighed, how hard it is just to lure someone you like to stay near you.

   "I'm your best opportunity, i'll always be your best helper. I could even buy a castle if you ask me to, or if you want a better school then i'll buy you a new one."

   I moved forward, closer, staring in those innocent eyes.

   "You're smart, i know that. You know why i'm doing all this. You know exactly what i want from you, and i know exactly what you need. You can give me, and i can give you. It's win-win opportunity for the both of us."

   She was speechless, eyes widened and red cheeks. She just got the most honest answer she's been wondering from me.

   She look away to think, i prayed for her to sign it. Please, sign them. Sign them and spend your days with me. I know exactly how to take care of you right.

  Miss (L/n) grabbed a pen and signed down her signature. I secretly sighed out in relief. Then told myself I cannot fuck this up. I must keep my word and take care of this young lady.

   I smiled softly, staring at her. She bit her lips, my lurking weakness in my souls screamed. Don't bite your lips, i want to do that, and i'm able to now.

   Because from the moment those raven ink touched the papers, you're mine.
