My Little Sunshine

Chapter 175: You In Or Not?

"Did you get it done?" Adam asked Blake. The two friends were now inside Blake's office. Lillian had taken Stella to show her around the place, not entirely though. 

"Of course." Blake replied as he stood up from the couch and walked towards his desk. The top left drawer of the sleek glass desk was password protected, having a touch screen keypad in the center. Blake keyed in a six digit password and the drawer unlocked with a click. He took out a manilla folder from the drawer and walked back to the couch where Adam was sitting. "There you go." He handed it to him and took a seat next to him.

Adam opened the folder and looked through the pages. After he was done, he placed it on the small coffee table before him. 

"Are you sure about this?" Blake couldn't help but ask him. He was utterly shocked and confused when Adam had asked him to get the papers ready. 

"Yes, I am. This is the only way to ensure her safety." Adam replied, giving him a sad smile. "I have a hunch that something bad is about to happen." He continued. "Promise me that you will look after her in case anything happens to me." 

"For sure, I will. She's my little sister after all." Blake patted his shoulder.

"Do you have any idea where they might be?" Adam asked one of his subordinates. After discussing a couple of things with Blake regarding the gang and it's businesses, he decided to look for Stella. 

"I saw them a couple of minutes earlier in the gaming arena, Big Boss." The man replied humbly. 

Adam nodded and walked towards the elevator. A little while later, the elevator came to a halt and the doors opened. He walked out on a floor which was located underground. The entire floor was fitted with the most advanced gaming technology, turning it into a gaming arena. One could find a number of visual games there along with some real ones. It was made for those people who lived in the base or for those who had just returned from a mission, to enjoy and relax. 

Adam heard some loud noises, more like cheering, coming from one of the rooms. His feet started to move in the direction on their own. The sight which welcomed his eyes, shook him to his core. 

In the center of the room, lied a big pool table. A girl clad in an all black outfit was bent over the table as she tried to align her cue. He gulped down a mouthful of saliva as his eyes lingered over her bent figure. 

A loud cheering noise brought him out of his thoughts, making him chuckle at his own helpless state. She would always look appealing to his eyes, no matter how many times he looks at her. 

"Dang! You are too good at this, lady boss." One of his subordinates who was standing on the opposite side of the table exclaimed. 

"What's going on here?" Adam's voice interrupted them, killing the joyous mood around and making the men stand up straight.

"What does it look like to you?" Stella asked, raising an eyebrow at him.

"You never told me that you can play pool." Adam walked inside the room.

"You never asked me that." Stella replied with a smile.

"Looks like I still don't know you even after all this time." Adam had a sad smile embracing his lips as he came to a stop before her. 

Stella put down the cue and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him closer to herself. "We have all the time in the world to know each other better." She beamed at him. Adam gazed at her face, taking in all of her features. His heart skipped a beat every time the corner of her lips curled up. 

"Yes, we do." He muttered before closing in the gap between them, pressing his lips against her tinted ones. 

Though the kiss was more like a lingering peck on her lips, Stella couldn't help but moan lightly. Adam drew his lips back slowly. He looked at her slightly flushed face as his breath grew heavier. 'If only he could have a piece of her right now.' He thought to himself. But remembering where they were, he controlled held himself back. 

Stella slowly stepped back a little, her eyes darted around the room as her cheeks became pink. To her surprise, everyone in the room had their backs facing towards them. They were looking at the walls as if they were seeing the most intriguing thing in the world for the first time in their lives. A low giggling sound escaped her lips which rang through the quiet room. 

"They sure are afraid of you." She spoke as she hugged him instead of stepping further away from her man. 

Adam hugged her back and hummed. "Where's Lillian?" He asked her when he realized that she wasn't there in the room. 

"She showed me around a little but then she had to leave for some sort of mission. So, she brought me here and I decided to polish my skills a bit. It's been too long since I last played it." Stella replied.

"You want to give it a go?" She added as she looked up at him hopefully, her eyes glowing in delight with the mere thought of playing pool with her man. 

"You sure you don't want to lose?" Adam replied sarcastically only to earn a glare from her.

"We will see who's the loser after the game. You in or not?" Stella added with a smirk. 

Adam could see how confident she was about her skills. For a minute there he was doubtful of his own skills but the thought didn't linger in his for longer. 'My men must have gone easy with her.' He thought to himself before agreeing to her. "Alright. I'm in. Set the table." He added, asking one of his men to reset the balls.
