"I like them crazy."

". . . And that's another date in the trash," I tsked deleting the so-called dating app that I've been using for a month. "Why did I even try this stupid thing?!"

          Turning around and paying the taxi driver that had dropped me off at my building. Anyway, that was enough dating for one day I had more issues up my sleeve. I glanced down at the time and sighed in relief, at six-thirty pm. Not too late to meet the new clients moving into the building's penthouse. Rushing up to the elevator, I made a quick stop by my apartment to grab the files and take a good look at the lady in the mirror. . . Still can't believe she is twenty-six and still single.

            Just as I made my way back to the elevator, the first thing that caught my eye upon the doors opening was the bright red ginger head, who had his back turned to me. Awkwardly, I stepped in and it was then it dawned upon me that he was licking faces with another guy.

         My jaw dropped . . . The documents fell out of my hands . . .and dropped my pen. The ginger jumped upon noticing my existence. I had never seen such tongue movements up close and I wasn't sure whether I was experiencing jealously or disgust. "M-MA'AM PLEASE FORGIVE US!" his partner interrupted, wiping his lips with the sleeve of his formal white blouse, before reaching out for my documents to make up for the incident.

       I on the other hand just remain in utter shock and simply flustered at how pretty he was. Long brown hair tied into a loose ponytail, a formal black vest and pants matching with a white blouse and the lovely, golden, dragon buckle of his belt. I might have stared too long at the carefully crafted engraving on the belt, for his cheeks flushed pink as he handed me back my documents. I hesitantly took them back as he adjusted the frame of his glasses against the bridge of his nose, before looking away shyly.

        I reached out to reassure him it was fine, but the ginger head jumped in front of me and looked down with a bitter expression, "Don't touch him."

        "Excuse me, if I was just trying to tell him it okie," I glared, lightly slapping the guy on the chest with the documents. "If you're so better don't worry too much, Hmph!"

         I frustratingly pressed the button to the top floor and straighten my shirt in an attempt to look more "class "  and refused to look at the pair next to me, despite them whispering among each other, mostly the seemingly older one who was called Zhongli from what I understood, scolding the ginger head named Ajax. " M-ma'am are you perhaps the owner of the building ?" Zhongli asked, tapping my shoulder, alas I did not reply and continued to glare at the doors.

       The audacity! To kiss in front of my single, lonely face and then give me the cold shoulder . . . AND THEN ASK ME QUESTIONS! HA! NOW THEY WONDER IF I'M THE OWNER!

          "If you'll excuse me, you just ruined my mood more than it has already been ruined by a trash date!" I busted, grabbing the ginger by the collar and pushing him against the wall, despite the great height difference.

             His deep sapphire eyes stared at me with awe, before a smug grin grew on his slightly swollen lips. "You're a feisty one aren't ya girlie?~" he simply replied, holding his hands up in defeat, without looking away. "Betcha can't top me thou–"

            "AJAX!" his boyfriend slapped his hand other the ginger's mouth, before bowing apologitically at me. "Please forgive him. . . He has a bad habit of stirring trouble."

            "Honestly, " I scoofed narrowing my eyes suspiciously at the cocky ginger, before getting interrupted by the doors opening to the penthouse. "I would love to scold you, but I have better things to do."

          Zhongli opened his mouth to retort, but I was already storming out a little raged. Stupid couples. Who needs them anyway?! I'm perfectly FINE! I did not dare to look back and reaches out to the door straight up ahead. My knocks sounded more like I was attempting to break in, but alas I was to mad to care.  Can someone for goodness sake just end this day for me already?!

          "Miss please be gentle with the door, " a black gloved hand reach out and grabbed mine swiftly, preventing from going on with my rampage.

          I took a few heavy breathes, before turning around and bowing down. I hate myself. Who would even want to deal with me and my anger issues anyway? "I'm sorry okie? Anyway whya re you even–Eh?!"  I liked up instantly upon recognising who it was, and damn it I just want to die.

          Barbatos end me. Let the earth swallow me whole. The man only unlocked the door calmly before opening it and ushering me in. I tried not to crumble the documents in my hand and went in, closely followed by Ajax. "Please miss, do relax, " Zhongli calmly led me straight to the living room with a gentle knowing smile, before walking away.  " I'll prepare us some tea."

             I carefully sat down in one of the armchairs near the fancy looking twenty-two-inch- plasma- television. "Fancy isn't it?" Ajax plopped into the chair opposite me and grinned as if he had me all figured out. "Bought it for that old man you goo-goo-eyes with."

             "Goo-goo-eyes?" I repeated, not hiding my disappointment for his poor word choice. "Says the person whose got a trash attitude."

           "At least I'm not. . . single ~" he hot a nerve and damned motherfucker knew he did. "What's wrong cat caught your tongue ?~"

          "You wish," I tsked, but the guy obviously had none of it. "I'm too busy anyway."

           A half hearted chuckle slipped out from between his lips as he unbuttoned the first too buttons of his   blouse and rolled up his sleeve, before leaning down and resting his elbows on his knees. "You're twenty-six, right ?" He asked, before his eyes settled down, staring at something else other than my eyes. "I'm only twenty-four. . .  Say girlie . . . I met your father, nice guy. Told me he gave you the building to be able to focus more on your mini business."

          "Ugh great," I sunk into the coach.

          Only god knew how much her got my dad to talk about me. "How about dating us hmm?~" he cooed. "Working too much kills the brain anyway~ We can make up for it ~"

         He was out of his chair and looming over me in a matter of seconds. Voice calm. Breathing calm. The guy had full confidence and I was trapped in his dead gaze . Those blue hollow eyes seemed to suck away my senses and leave me paralyzed as his lips pressed gently against my ear,"Let's leave the paper work for tomorrow. . . Hmm girlie ? We will take good care of you~"

           "Who is we?" we both jumped at Zhongli's deep unfazed voice popping in on the moment. "Ajax please be a little more respectful to our guest's presence. "

            If Ajax had puppy ears, they would have been droopy by now to match the disappointed pout on his lips. "Come on sensei ~  girlie here is fiesty and single ," Ajax innocently stated, pulling me by my arm up to my feet.

          At the sudden forceful impact my face bashed face first into his chest. Despite him wearing clothes, I could still feel a good amount of muscle hidden underneath.  Trying to lush myself away from him , I lay my hand over the side of his chest. .  . The man had nice big twiddies. I began fondling them subconsciously, until feeling a hard nipple between my fingers. "N-neh. . . G-girlie ahem," I jumped away remembering whom this was, before bowing repeatedly.

        "F-forgive me!" I bursted. " YOUR BODY IS JUST REALLY AMAZING!"
