Jonathan Pine:

you were best friends with Angela ever since you bumped into her at the Riverhouse and realised that you both worked there. after a few months of seeing each other at the coffee machine and having small talk, you eventually became inseparable. when Angela left the Riverhouse however, you were devastated. she was still doing the same line of work and trying to catch Richard Onslow Roper, also known as The Worst Man In The World

you still kept in touch with her and met up about 3-4 times a week after work at either her house or yours and talked for hours

today you had a free schedule. your boss, surprisingly, let you have a day off since they thought you were working hard and needed a little break. however, instead of lounging in bed in your favourite f/c fluffy pyjamas and bugs bunny slippers sipping on tea while you did a marathon of Marvel movies, you got changed into your favourite outfit and headed out to the shop to grab yourself a cup of coffee and since Angela was pregnant, you got her a strawberry yazoo and a bagel each. nothing better to do then to surprise your best mate at work

after picking up the food and drinks, you walked to Angela's office with a spring in your step. when you arrived outside Angela's door, you could hear two voices. you identified the slightly pissed off voice as Angela's but you couldn't put a name on the velvety voice. you opened the door with your elbow since your hands were full and a wide grin on your face

"surprise!!" you yelled slightly, quoting your favourite marvel character, Loki

Angela froze for half a second before smiling with you and struggling to get out of her chair. the man seemed to stare slightly at you, curious as to who you were

"Y/N!! how comes your here? i thought you'd be at work, is everything okay?" Angela questioned. the sudden interrogation caused you to chuckle slightly as you set the drinks and food down

"what, a girl can't come round on a day off to see her all time best friend?" you teased while smirking "i also had the courtesy to buy you a yazoo and a bagel for breakfast"

"wow... thank you y/n! you're my best friend for a reason" Angela said while laughing slightly. she took a bite out of her bagel as you took a sip of your coffee. Angela suddenly put the bagel down in a hurry and hurried to finish the bite she had previously  taken

"how rude of me, this is Jonathan Pine, a soon-to-be colleague... kind of. umm Jonathan, this is y/n l/n my best friend." Angela quickly announced so she could go back to eating her bagel

you held your hand out for Jonathan to shake while smiling at him. "hi Jonathan, it's a pleasure to meet you." you greeted kindly. there was a certain shine in your eyes that Jonathan seemed to notice. it was something he'd only really seen in... her. Sophie.

Jonathan hesitantly clasped his hand around yours, shaking it slightly while feeling a genuine smile form on his face, bringing out his beautiful features

"the pleasures all mine, miss y/n." Jonathan replied. his hand lingered over yours for longer than it should've. as you began eating your bagel and sipping coffee while talking to Angela, Jonathan admired your beauty and unique features. he swore to himself that he'd never seen a more beautiful sight

time must've flied by because just as quickly as you came, you left. you had to go pick up your weekly shopping and finish the book you had nearly finished reading

"bye Angela, i'll see you later. bye Jonathan, it was great to meet you!". you waved goodbye before leaving the room and shutting the door with a satisfying * C L I C K *

Jonathan went back to talking to Angela about the plan to take down Richard Roper but Jonathan couldn't stop thinking about you and how well your outfit complimented the way you looked. the way your hair shined in the sunlight that peaked though the window, the way your eyes sparkled slightly when you looked at him. it only took Jonathan a few more moments to realise that he'd forgotten to get your number

"number!" Jonathan yelled randomly. Angela flinched slightly at his sudden outburst before being flooded with confusion

"huh, number? what number?" Angela asked

"hers. y/n." Jonathan replied while his face had a slightly panicked expression. Angela just smirked to herself and rolled her eyes playfully while jotting your number down on a piece of paper and folded it up

"oi, Jonathan! here." Angela called, loud enough to pull Jonathan out of his state of panic but not too loud to startle him like he did to her a few moments ago

Jonathan shot Angela a confused look before opening the folded paper which revealed your number with your name written on the bottom. Jonathan looked up to Angela with a smile and muttered a thanks before getting his phone out and adding you to his contacts

just as he was doing this, you were wondering around the market looking for some fruit when you realised you never gave that cute guy, Jonathan, your number. you mentally facepalmed yourself for being a twat and not giving this 'once in a lifetime' guy your phone number

just as you were about to knock your panic into 12th gear, your phone buzzed in your pocked. you whipped it out hoping it to be your Amazon parcel turning up but it was better.

it was him

+44 6294 910483: Hi. Y/n, right? This is Jonathan, from Angela's office. Angela gave me your number and I was hoping to talk to you again sometime, maybe over a cup of tea

y/n: hi Jonathan! that's awesome, i'd love to have tea sometime. you free next week Wednesday?

** CHANGED +44 6294 910483 TO 'CuteBoy 😚' **

CuteBoy 😚: you free this week Wednesday?

y/n: yes... i'll see you in 2 days then. until the next time, Jonathan

CuteBoy 😚: until the next time, y/n

Richard Roper:

you were Caroline's slightly younger sister. you'd only briefly heard of Roper from your sister and her snobby partner. from the things you'd heard from Caro, he didn't seem like a nice guy but Sandy seemed rather fond of him

it was a typical Friday evening when your sister rang you. pausing your movie, you picked up the phone. "hey Caro, what's up?" you asked

Caroline sighed slightly before answering "hiya y/n. listen, i'm going to have to cancel our shopping plans we had tomorrow. i'm sorry" she apologised

you frowned slightly but you'd be lying if you said you were surprised. your sister cancelled plans pretty much all the time with you and everyone else. you cleared your throat slightly to stop any trace of disappointment flowing through your next words

"it's alright, honestly. we can re-schedule for another time. what's the reason why you're cancelling anyways?" you asked

"Sandy's mate, Roper, is holding a party in his villa in Mallorca" she told you. saying Roper's name seemed to bring disgust to Caroline

"i'm sorry, look we can go sho-" your sister for cut off by some rustling noises and another voice who sounded like Sandy and sure enough, Sandy took the phone

"hello y/n! it's nice to talk to you. look, i heard Caroline talking to you about the party Dicky's holding and he'd love to meet you. how about you come along with?" Sandy asked. the question took you back as you'd never met Roper and had no clue what to wear

"oh umm, Sandy, that's a great offer but i'd have to decline. it's very kind of you and mr. Roper but i don't have anything to wear and no way of getting to Mal-

"oh don't worry, i'm sure Caro has a dress she can lend you. with travel, you can come in the jet with us. we'll let you know the time and place. so what do you say?" Sandy asked again

still with no thought, you blurted out "oh sure! sounds fun, who's going to be there?"

"just some business men, myself and Caro along with a few little ones. well, we'll see you soon then, y/n. bye" and with that, Sandy hung up. you ran upstairs missing one step at a time and slid into your bedroom. you rummaged through your drawers to find something to wear and you settled on a beautiful f/c sundress which stopped just about the knee paired with f/c heels

the day of the party was nerve wracking. you'd jumped in the shower and washed your hair and body with some expensive shampoo and body wash you kept for special occasions. although you didn't really feel like going, you still wanted to look and smell nice. you let your c/h hair dry naturally. you changed into some matching bra and panties then slid on your sundress and left your hair in it's natural curls. you just used a little bit of mascara, eye liner and lipstick

you grabbed your purse with your keys, phone and wallet as well as a pocket knife for protection. you slid your shoes on then left your house and locked the door. you were supposed to be getting picked up by your sister and Sandy but they weren't here yet. just as you were about to call a taxi, they turned up in their flashy car

the jet ride there was silent but pleasant. the whole ride there, you kept wondering about who Roper was and what was he like. why did your sister hate him so much?

your thoughts came to an end when a beautiful villa came into view and your palms started sweating. you got up from your seat and exited the jet with Caro and Sandy a few paces behind you. you looked around and admired the view of this marvellous place. you followed your sister and Sandy to where the party was and immediately felt your heart rate increase every waking minute

to calm your nerves, you headed towards the bar and ordered a drink. looking around, you saw Caro mixing in perfectly with another woman just chatting away while Sandy was talking to a small looking man. you got your drink and downed in within seconds before ordering another. you didn't speak a word to anyone since you got here and didn't feel like doing so either, until a random (and slightly drunk) man came up to you and wrapped his arm around your shoulders

"hey baby, how about i get you a drink?" he slurred. you shot him a glare and pulled his arm off your shoulders

"sorry but no, thanks" you kindly rejected. the man didn't seem to take no for an answer and wrapped both arms around your waist, leaning in your ear
"i bet any man would loveeee to get his mans on these babies" he whispered and then grabbed both your boobs. you pulled away instantly and slapped him around the face which pissed him off. what you didn't know was that Roper was watching his every move, gripping his glass tighter and tighter. 'no one should treat a lady that way' he thought to himself

when the drunk man proceeded to hit on you, Roper decided to step in and swiftly moved in between all the party people. once he got to you, he slipped an arm around you, pulling you away from the intoxicated man

"i'm sorry sir, but i believe the lady asked you to stop... so please leave" Roper spoke with a stern voice. you were too scared of this man to realise that your saviour had his arm around you

"what's it got to do with you, Roper? she's asking for it" the man sneered. that was it! you send another slap around the guys face and kneed him in the stomach

"GO!" you yelled. this caught the attention of everyone but you didn't seem to care. two large men came and took the man out by his arms and you never saw him again that evening. you became flustered once you realised everyone's watching eyes were on you

you ran off into the villa and broke down by the steps, not realising that the man who tried to save you was following behind. he wrapped you into a gentle hug while petting your head slightly

"shhh, it's okay. he's gone. are you alright?" Roper asked. he'd never felt more concerned in his life, apart from when Danny was upset. you sniffled before lifting your head to meet his eyes and my god...

he wasn't bad looking. his piercing blue eyes searched into yours for any sign that you were okay. you cleared your throat and smiled

"i'm better now... um, thank you back there. i would've stabbed him with this but i doubt i would be welcomed back" you chucked slightly while lifting your pocket knife slightly then putting it back into your purse. Roper laughed with you before holding his hand out

"oh, i'm Richard Roper" he announced with a proud smile. you smiled back at him and wrapped your hand around his

"i'm y/n y/l"
