Brielle's POV
Walking into Killian's private jet, I sat in a chair by the window and watched as Delilah walked in with a huge smile on her face. She made eye contact with me and came over to sit on my lap. I placed a kiss on her cheek and rested my chin on her shoulder.
" Are you excited to go visit Reginald and Leo? " I asked her and she nodded her head.
" I missed them, " She said and I smiled.
" Well, I'm sure they missed you too. They haven't seen you in a while. " She nodded her head and we sat in silence as they continued to load the plane with our luggage. To say I was avoiding Killian like the plague for the last hour or so would be a stretch. I can't exactly avoid him as we're going to the same destination, going in the same car and living in the same home but I haven't said much to him at all to avoid the embarrassment.
Benjamin noticed my awkwardness towards Killian and told me to loosen up a bit but it seemed nearly impossible to do so. We're going to be in the plane for a while so my plan is to avoid him until we land... which shouldn't be too hard. I was brought out of my thoughts when I heard Blaine's voice.
" Is there any food on the plane? I'm starving. " Killian responded.
" #1 Blaine, you've just eaten and #2 I am not responsible for feeding you " Blaine gave a dramatic sigh and I heard him stomp up the stairs as he entered the jet. He came over to us and picked Delilah up off of my lap to give her a hug and kiss. I leaned back in my seat.
" So you're flying with us today? " He nodded.
" I didn't feel like waiting for my jet to be prepared and Killian is always prepared so I thought it'd be easier to just ride with you guys. "
" I'm assuming he's loving the idea of you being here, " I said laughing and he rolled his eyes.
" He's hating it. Always acts like he has something stuck up his-... " Blaine trailed off looking over to Delilah and she just stared back at him as if daring him to finish his sentence.
" -up his gluteus maximus but at least I'm better at riding in a plane with him than his father is. "
" I would assume so... Why do they never get along? "
" They're personalities are too dominating and challenging to mix. Killian wants to impress his father but at the same time he wants to be better than him and Frederick has always been one to take control of situations and Killian hates it. " I nodded my head and my eyes darted over to the door as Killian walked in with a small look of anger.
His eyes made their way over to mine and they stayed on me even as I looked down and directed my eyes elsewhere. He walked past us and went to the back of the room to sit by his laptop and files.
We all were situated in a small matter of time and the jet took off into the sky. I reached into my carryon and pulled out the book that I brought to read. I saw Blaine reading the cover and he chuckled. I tilted my head and quirked my eyebrow at him.
" What's so funny? " He shook his head.
" Nothing.. I just never took you as a person who reads romance novels " I blushed slightly and responded.
" I only read them here and there.. I don't usually read these sorts of things.. " He nodded and I drifted my eyes down to the book. I wasn't entirely lying. Back then I would rarely read any type of romance novel because of how embarrassed they made me feel. But ever since I met Killian and started to catch feelings for him, they're almost all I read now. I ordered a few online and even borrowed some from Mr. Burkley's library. I was also slightly tempted to enter the.... dare I say.. erotica section.. But I had to stop myself. Baby steps Brielle, baby steps.
Blaine stood up with Delilah and I looked up to them in question. " We're going to the kitchen to raid the fridge and I'm putting on a movie to pass the time. Care to join us? " Blaine asked and I giggled shaking my head.
" You two go on ahead, I'm just gonna stay here. " He nodded and walked to the other room towards the front of the plane. I sat in silence as I opened to my page in the book and continued reading. After a good half hour, I closed my book and set it to the side. I turned and looked towards the back to see Killian sitting at his table filled with work, quietly. He was reading a something on his laptop. I didn't notice how long I was staring until he spoke.
" You know darling, it is impolite to stare.. But when it's from you, you know I don't mind. " I smiled softly as he looked at me and I felt my stomach flutter at his smirk.
" Sorry.. I'll be right back " I said quickly and stood up. I walked towards the back of the plane and entered a small corridor that had three doors. Opening the bathroom door, I closed it and slowly leaned my forehead against the door. I sighed and scolded myself. What's wrong with you Brielle? Can you just act regularly around the guy for once? What are you even doing in this bathroom?
I tuned out my conscious as it continued to ramble. I took a deep breath in as I opened the door. Breathing it out, I looked at the door in front and noticed it was slightly cracked. I peeked inside and noticed it was a bedroom?
I guess I've never actually checked out the entire interior of this plane. Ignoring the gut feeling telling me to mind my own business, I entered the room and looked around. It was plain but none the less, it was an actual bedroom inside a plane.
Looking around, I shook my head in confusion. How big is this jet in all seriousness? The exterior is probably just as big. Why haven't I paid attention to it? Wow, I've been talking to myself a lot recently.
Getting caught up in my thoughts, I didn't notice someone had entered the room until the door closed and I jumped turning to face the person. Killian stood by the door and he kept his eyes trained on me. The emotion in his eyes told me he found me for a specific reason and the look on his face didn't seem like he just wanted to talk.
He took one step closer and whispered " Brielle.. " I bit lip and took a step backward.
" Killian... " I said softly and he noticed for ever step he took, I took one back. Eventually, it didn't take long for my steps to be blocked by the bed and I had no choice but to stand there as he continuously approached me. Once he was in front of me, he reached his hand out to caress my face as he stared deeply into my eyes. I opened my mouth to say something when he quickly seized the moment and placed his lips on mine, causing me to squeal. He devoured every corner of my mouth making my knees buckle and I quickly brought my hands up to his shirt to clutch, giving myself a grip.
Noticing my feeble attempt to stand, he picked me up by the waist effortlessly and I wrapped my legs around his torso. I ran my hands through his hair and he leaned down and placed me in the middle of the bed. Pulling away, he looked down at me as he hovered over my body. He stared at my face for a few more seconds and placed his lips on mine once again. Before I was able to move my hands again, he grabbed my wrists with both hands and held them above my head with one. He spoke against my lips sending shivers through my entire body.
" You like to pull and tug a lot. I won't be able to control myself if you keep going. " I giggled softly and he gave me a small smirk before continuing. I felt him grind himself into me and I squeezed my eyes closed as the pleasure was becoming unbearable. After a few minutes, he pulled away and his eyes were dark as he licked his lips.
" It's best if we stop now.. "
I smiled softly and spoke. " You always say that "
" That's because I mean it... "
" Well.. W-what if I didn't want to stop? " I asked blushing slightly and he smirked once again but this time it was different... much more seductive. Whatever happened to baby steps?
He leaned down into my ear and whispered. " Well my darling Brielle, I would gladly rip your clothes off of your body and take you right here on this bed but we are about 40,000 feet above ground and I wouldn't want your first time to be in a plane with Delilah and Blaine in the next room. Once our circumstances are much more suitable, don't expect me to hold back any longer.. and maybe " He let go of my wrists and caressed the side of my face.
" If we're lucky, on the way home... I may even show you the what it's like to be in the mile high club. How does that sound? " He asked and I slowly brought my arms down from being above my head and gulped.
" O-ok " He chuckled as his pearly whites showed.
" Ok? I tell you I want to have sex with you and all you have to say is ok? " I giggled nervously and responded.
" I meant g-good. I guess that's good... " I trailed off not really knowing what to say and shook his head with the smirk still on his face.
" God Brielle you really are something else.. "
" .. I guess I am. " I whispered and we continued to stare into each other's eyes. After a few seconds, he whispered.
" Brielle.. " I anxiously waited for him to resume speaking as he paused but I didn't let it show as I ran my fingers over his bicep. I... - " Once he looked like he was ready to continue speaking, there was a knock at the door. It instantly made him switch emotions as he got off of me and stood up. He walked over to the door and as I sat up I could feel my heart was starting to get a bit heavy but I ignored it. He opened the door and I watched as Blaine turned around acting as if he wasn't aware of what we were doing. Killian sighed and leaned against the door frame.
" Can I help you, Blaine? " He asked and Blaine laughed softly.
" Yeah well uh, your father is on the phone right now and I could only stall him for a few minutes. He asked to speak to you and uh.. here " He held up Killian's phone and Killian took it out of his hand and walked past him to the front of the plane. Blaine looked over to me slowly and my cheeks blushed crimson as I got off of the bed and went to find Killian. I found him sitting in the chair he was before and I went over to Delilah to sit beside her. I covered her ears as she ate strawberries and she ignored me.
" Listen to me father.. I was informed that I have a meeting with you this afternoon. I couldn't give a shit if the damn photoshoot got moved to today.. " His father spoke into the phone and Killian rolled his eyes.
" That is absolute bullshit... You know what?.. Listen here Frederick- " I tuned him out as I stood up and went over to him. He eyed me suspiciously and I took the phone from his hand and held it to my ear.
" Hello, Mr. Russel this is Ms. Newman how are you? " I heard a slight pause and he responded.
" Hello, Ms. Newman. I'm feeling a lot better now that I can't hear Killian's voice. "
" My sincere apologies for his behavior today. He's been on edge all morning and hasn't had much time to recollect himself " Killian glared at me and I ignored him as Frederick spoke.
" I see.. "
" I'll make sure he's at the photo shoot on time and ready for his upcoming meetings this week. " He was quiet for a moment and then he replied.
" Thank you, Brielle, for putting me at ease with Killian. Sometimes... I don't know what he'd do without you. "
" Not a problem sir, I'll see you in London. " He said goodbye and I hung up the phone and handed it back to Killian. He pulled me down onto his lap and laid his head on my shoulder. I rubbed his knuckles that had turned white earlier and started mentally preparing myself for this afternoon.
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
Exiting Leo's car, I said goodbye to Delilah as Killian and Blaine led me into the building. Once we entered I immediately felt out of place as the long posters of models draped along the walls and the women walking by looked exactly like them. They acknowledged Killian and Blaine before the did me but once they did, they stared.. not in so much of a judging way but more of a confused or interesting way.
Going to the front desk Killian spoke to the lady and she immediately stood up and led us to where we needed to go. Getting a total glance at her, she looked to be a model herself. She was about 5'9, without her heels, her body was slim and her face structure was gorgeous. Once again, I felt totally out of place.
We entered a room with camera's and backdrops and Killian was immediately escorted to the dressing room. I went over to Blaine and spoke.
" Is.. he going to be alright? "
" Oh, this is nothing. Just wait until Fabrice Masson arrives " I looked up at him in shock.
" You mean Fabrice Masson as the Fabrice Masson? "
" The one and only. " He responded and I stopped speaking. I guess Killian would get one of the most well-known fashion icons and photographers to work for him and his magazine. I walked over to the couch in the corner, leaving Blaine as he was dragged away as well. I sat down and continued to look around. I'd obviously never been to a photoshoot and I didn't exactly know what was going on. All I could take from this was that there was a camera in the middle of the floor and the model was supposed to stand in front of it.
The door opened forcefully and I turned my head to see a man walking in with a tailored brown tuxedo and a black scarf around his neck. His beard looked freshly trimmed and his hair was slicked down and to the side. His two assistants trailed behind him like pets and I could already tell it was Fabrice.
" Mr. Masson, everything is ready for the photoshoot. Mr. Russel and Mr. Porter are already done. " Fabrice didn't say anything as Killian and Blaine walked out of the dressing room. Blaine, of course, had a huge smile on his face but Killian had a scowl that would even scare a monster. Fabrice snapped his fingers once and one of his assistants quickly rushed over to him.
" Y-yes, sir? "
" Get these two gentlemen a glass of wine.. It seems as though they'd much rather be anywhere but here... I don't blame them. You people couldn't even do the simplest of a task. " I was taken back by his choice of words but it seems nobody else was. In fact, they just took his orders like that and he even seemed to make Killian loosen up a bit. He directed Killian over to the set after a brief greeting and Killian sat on a black stool in front of the white backdrop.
I noticed my phone was ringing and I picked it up and held it to my ear.
" Hello? " I asked as I forgot to check the caller ID.
" Brielle, my darling how are you? "
" Madam A, I'm doing just fine. How are you? " I asked giggling softly and I stood up to make my way outside so I could hear her better.
" I'm doing wonderful, Benjamin just made the most delicious meal and red velvet cake and now I'm enjoying a glass of champagne by the fire. " I rolled my eyes.
" Does Killian know you're there Madam A? "
" Of course he knows! I actually came to see you but I hadn't known you weren't here.. " I laughed at her and we continued talking about nothing in particular but then I remembered what Killian told me in the plane and I instantly felt like I needed advice. Looking around I entered the bathroom and stood by the sink.
" Madam A? "
" Yes, sweetheart? "
" Can I... get your advice on something? " She paused for a moment before continuing.
" What is it, love? " I took a deep breath and spoke quickly unintentionally.
" KilliansayshewantstohavesexwithmeandIdon'tknowwhattosayorfeelaboutthesituation
"
" .... "
" ..... "
" Now repeat what you said and this time, not in a different language. "
" Killian says he wants to have sex with me and I don't.. really know what to say or feel about the situation.. " She hummed and took a sip of her champagne.
" Have you told him how you feel about him? " I bit my lip and shook my head even though she couldn't see me.
" Not exactly.. I said it to him while he was 'asleep' but I think he heard me "
" I think you should go for it. "
" Huh? " I blurted out not exactly hearing her correctly.
" I honestly think you should go for it... The man already wants to marry you so he must be in love with you. And besides, you two need to hurry up and give me my other grandchildren. I'm sick of seeing the two of you looking at one another like you want to eat them up. " I blushed from embarrassment as that is exactly how I've been feeling but I quickly said my goodbyes to her and walked back to the room.
Upon opening the door, I heard a sigh of frustration coming from Fabrice.
" Killian, you are doing amazing and your cooperation is appreciated. If you could just give me another facial expression like a smirk or smile I promise this will be over quickly. " The look on Killian's face told me he was trying hard enough as it is. I approached the set slowly and Killian's eyes directed over to me. I tilted my head and mouthed 'smile'.
He shook his head and I could see the confusion on everyone's face as he did so. I mouthed it once again and he just stared at me. I sighed and glared at him playfully to which the side of his mouth went up slightly, making Fabrice gasp and drop his clipboard as he took multiple photos of Killian's slight smirk towards me. After a few seconds, Killian looked at the camera and his smirk dropped but Fabrice had already gotten what he needed.
I giggled at Killian's behavior and walked back over to the couch in the corner. Once I sat down, only then did I notice Fabrice staring at me and one of his models whispering in his ear. He nodded his head and whispered back to the woman to which she nodded her head and smiled my way making me more than confused. Fabrice made his way over to me and I gulped slightly as this was the first time today he actually saw me. He stopped in front of me and I looked down at my heels trying to avoid his stare.
" What is your name? " I looked up at him and spoke.
" Brielle Newman sir.. "
" Stand up, " He said abruptly and I did quickly. Out the corner of my eye, I could see Killian smiling at me and I secretly hoped he would come to save me. Fabrice picked up a piece of my hair before examining the rest of me. Killian finally came over and wrapped his arm around my waist comfortingly.
" My assumption was correct I see.. she is yours. " Fabrice said looking over to Killian and only then did I see that they were around the same height.
" One of my models is not here for a shoot and many of my other's have noticed her.. I've been trying out different models all day and although she is on the short side, I could maybe see her being fit for it... Would you allow me to borrow her for an hour or so? " My eyes widened and I pinched Killian's side as if saying no. He looked down at me for a moment and I could see the mischevious glint in his eyes.
" No... I wouldn't mind at all. " Fabrice snapped his fingers twice and 2 of his models came over to me and pulled me into the dressing room happily. I glared at Killian with all of my might only to see him happily watching me getting dragged away.
