Trapped In Her Heart

Sebastian's room.

Lying on the bed with his eyes wide open, Sebastian had been sulking for about an hour now. He had no idea whether he was sad or angry because she shut him out. 

Supporting his head with his elbow, he immersed himself in a very deep thought. Was it really his fault? Did he overreact? Well, he did shout at her again which was totally wrong and he didn't deny that.

He then frowned and gritted his teeth, she was laughing at that guys stupid tripping jokes. She made him feel awful and sad so it was clearly her fault.

Burying his face on the pillow, he closed his eyes and tried not to think about Ellie and sulk but he couldn't help it. 

Just then he widened his eyes in shock and glanced at the watch. He quickly got up when he realised that it was almost half past four and they didn't have their lunch yet. 

Getting down from the bed, he wore his slippers and rushed towards the door but stopped himself midway when he realized that they were still fighting and he was still angry over everything that had happened.

Grumpily walking towards the couch, he slumped down and sighed. They obviously couldn't have lunch together since they were fighting but that doesn't mean he can't order lunch for her right? She was angry with him and not the food.

Without wasting any more time, he ordered two identical portions for food and asked them to deliver a portion to Ellie's room.

…..

Ellie's room.

Still angry and hurt over the incident, Ellie decided to take a nap to clear her head. She was not angry because he had shouted at her but because of the false accusations that he slammed right on her face. 

Did he really think that she would just give her number to any Tom, D.i.c.k and Harry? Did he think that she was so stupid? She was there because he took her and it was a part of her job so how could he accuse her that way? She felt very wronged and disappointed over whatever had happened.

Resting her head on her elbow, she massaged her forehead and sighed. Did she say too much? Did she overreact? Whatever he said made sense and it sounded like he genuinely cared and was worried about her safety. Was shutting him out like that a bad decision? What if he stops talking to her? 

Burying her face on the pillow, Ellie sighed. She was exhausted after having such a rough day and was feeling hungry too. She wanted to order something but didn't want to eat all by herself. 

Should she go over and ask him to accompany her for lunch? Vigorously shaking her head, she frowned. No she couldn't do that, she was still angry with him and didn't wanna melt down.

Just then something knocked at the door.

Lazily dragging herself down from the bed, she rubbed her slightly swollen elbow which was still hurting, while walking towards the door.

Looking at the hotel staff who was holding a tray in his hand, she frowned, "Hmm I guess you are in the wrong room."

"Ms Miller this is for you."

"But I didn't order anything."

"Mr Stewart ordered this for you." The waiting informed before passing her the tray. "Have a good day." 

Looking at the tray which had different kinds of foods, she couldn't stop herself from blushing very hard. He actually ordered food for her even after she had shut him out? 

Kicking the door shut, she happily entered the room along with her food tray that Sebastian ordered for her.

Placing the tray on the table, she smiled. So he didn't forget about her lunch even though they were not talking to each other. How can someone be so annoying and sweet at the same time? 

Helplessly shaking her head, she chuckled. How on earth was she supposed to stay angry with him? He just earned all the leftover brownie points from her.

…..

Sebastian's room.

After lazily finishing his food while thinking whether Ellie had eaten or not, he thought for a while before picking his phone from the table.

Opening his browser, he started doing his own little research on how he could soothe Ellie's anger and make her talk to him again.

After going through a couple of articles, Sebastian didn't feel very satisfied so he decided to take help from a highly experienced person.

"Dude, what's up?" Noah asked.

"Where are you?" 

"I am at home, Melissa is taking her afternoon nap so I am cleaning the house, why? What happened?"

Keeping quiet for quite sometime, Sebastian said, "Hmm I just wanted to ask you a general question.

"Okay, go on."

"Like just a general question but nothing personal okay?"

"Dude, are you drunk? What you are saying makes no sense." Noah snapped.

Sebastian took a deep breath and asked, "Okay so what do you do when Melissa is angry with you?"

"Wait what? Why do you wanna know that?" 

"I am just curious," he lied. He wanted to know what Noah does to soothe Melissa's so that he could use it on Ellie.

"Okay, so I hug her and keep kissing and touching her until she gets we—"

Cutting off, Sebastian sighed, "Okay, too much information." 

"Hey, you were the one who asked for it." 

"Why don't you tell me something that doesn't include kissing or hugging?" Sebastian asked.

"Hmm, well when she doesn't let me touch her, I keeping walking around her and offer her a long drive or a walk in the garden and—"

Cutting him off again, Sebastian said, "Alright, continue with the cleaning and don't try to act smart and clean only the areas which are visible. Remember what Mel did when you did not clean the back for the shelves and under the couch." before hanging up the call.

Tossing his phone aside, he rushed towards the washroom to take a shower before rushing over to Ellie's room.
