Aloof CEO's; Charming Secretary

"Let's sit and talk like civilized people. Get off." She had noticed him leaving a gap between them so that she shouldn't throw a fit. But their position wasn't good at all.

Arlo controlled his laughter, 'Civilized people? seriously?'

"Okay, I will ask you a question, if you tell me the truth, we will sit and talk." Arlo asked without breaking eye contact as he was sure she wouldn't lie like that.

When he heard Sky hum, he asked, "Will you run again if I get up?"

Sky hummed and realized she actually fell into his trap. Seeing her covering the face, Arlo couldn't help but chuckle.

"I will sit and talk." Sky said half-heartedly because she knew she would run.

"Oh!" Arlo saw her blushing. If it was before when she thought him as gay, how much ever they were near, she would still keep an indifferent face.

Her face was turning from pink to red looking alluring. He changed his sight so that he could calm himself.

Sky spoke again, "We will sit and talk."

Arlo turned back to her and offered, "Either we will talk like this or I will hug so that you shouldn't think about running."

Sky could feel her cheeks burning. She clutched the duvet under her tightly and said, "This is better."

Arlo shook his head resignedly. He came point, "Sky! When you first met me in Harley Mansion, your Dad was joking. Why are you so dumb to believe it?"

Sky blinked twice looking him in the eye and spoke, "I thought as a joke but seeing Ray fluster up, I thought it as real and anyway, you two always behaved like a couple so I thought it was true."

'Behaved like a couple?' He imagined Ryan next to him like a couple and wanted to puke instantly. "Sky! Let me know whenever you thought like that, I will clarify for you. Okay?"

He felt like he was talking to a small child and upon that he had to control his all urge to do anything to her and focus on solving the misunderstanding.

Sky started from the beginning, "Whenever you came out with us, you always brought Ray otherwise you never came with us."

It was true, "That's because he doesn't have any friends in the capital and he likes to hang out with you guys."

Sky remembered the next event, "You sang a song for Ray in Ethan's birthday."

Arlo wanted to bang his head, "That was for you. I even stopped when you went out."

"Oh!" Sky remembered hearing he stopped the song in midway. "Why did you sing for me?"

Sky asked earnestly. Arlo wanted to close her eyes in which he could see himself. He took a deep breath and changed the topic back, "Let me clear your misunderstanding first. Next!"

She continued on a few more incidence and asked one question to which he had to show his mobile, "Why was Ray unhappy when you saved me from that deer on Rocky mountain?"

"Picture?" Sky was confused she had no pictures with deer and they all shared pictures.

Arlo took out his mobile and showed his mobile lock screen where she was looking at him with a smile and he was bent to her height in concern.

"It's good but it is after deer left."

'Your brain works for this.' He thought to himself and opened his mobile picture gallery and showed the picture. Her one hand was touching antelope and another hand was holding his T-shirt.

After seeing his expression and remembering the first one that he showed was the lock screen, she asked, "Do you like me?"

Arlo just looked at her without replying. Sky who swiped the photo realized there were many more pictures of her. She saw all the pictures in small tiles and realized he had only her pictures in different places. From her study time to trips.

Seeing her expression change, he took the mobile and threw it on the bed a little away.

"Hey! I want... You like me. Don't you?" Sky wanted to ask a few pictures from his gallery but that she could do later.

Arlo couldn't say the words directly but Sky said, "Why are you blushing? So you do like me."

'If you already understood why are you asking me?' He thought to himself but didn't respond to her question. 

With that the more he tried to keep his mind at a place, it was wandering giving him urge to kiss her or do something more too...

He felt like he was giving the toughest exam which was testing his self-control to the peak.

"Why do you like me? Because I'm president Harley and Heiress of Harley." She asked earnestly but her surprised expression was changing to mockery.

Arlo noticed it explained, "No, No! I didn't even know you were President Harley."

Sky who had gripped duvet tightly mocking herself loosened it when she saw him sincerely responding.

'Does that mean he liked me before even knowing me?'

"Are you freaking nuts? why didn't..." Sky didn't continue. 'What was I trying to ask?'

Arlo raised his brows to ask but she was back on topic and said many more situations. He was surprised to know she remembered most of the things and he answered patiently.

"Then when I asked 'Don't you have Ray? Why are you asking me?' in hospital, why did you say 'you think I can marry him?' You should have cleared my misunderstanding."

Actually now he understood why she asked those lines. "I didn't understand on that day." He understood why she took Ryan's name every time.

"Oh!" Sky nodded and asked, "Why were running to Ray's room as soon as we were coming back home?"

It was all due to his work from sigma. "So you thought I will stay in his room and was pretending like I was with you to others?"

Sky nodded. She had almost thought she must have misunderstood him as gay after seeing nobody worrying about it but seeing him run to Ryan's room, she had erased that thought.

Arlo wanted to tell the truth but he knew she wasn't ready to hear it yet. "I was helping him at work." Half lied

"Like how you help me?" Sky asked. Arlo nodded.

He waited for seconds and was surprised knowing she didn't ask him which work or company. "Any more?"

Sky shook her head pursuing her lips.

"Was this the reason you said we can not have any relationship?" Arlo asked but Sky didn't reply.

Throughout their conversation, Sky felt her heart was in her throat and would pop out any movement. She hundred times asked herself if she was going to have a heart attack as its speed of beats was very high. With that she many times had the urge to touch his mole which was near his lips.

Arlo thought she again let her mind wander and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I may get nosebleed or I will have a heart attack or it will pop..." Sky quickly covered her mouth seeing his lips turning up and kicked his leg, "Get off now."

Even though she didn't finish, Arlo knew what she was about to say. "So you can consider our relationship?"
