Chapter 7

Charlotte sighed as she emptied the glass again; she was getting tipsier by the seconds. “Umm… I don’t know what it feels like, but I believe you are trying to please everyone and in the process displeasing yourself. I think it is high time you be your real self, because life is too… life is too short, you know. Don’t let other people tell you how to live your life, you should do what you want, not what they want you to do, else you will never find true happiness.” She advised me.

“But what if people are disappointed in me, people who I care about?” he asked, sounding genuinely worried.

“Ugh!! Stupid humans, you can’t please everyone Williams, believe me… I have been there.” She muttered. “But… if you learn to be yourself, the people who care about you would… they would also learn to love you for who you choose to be, for who you really are. So just see this as a way to know people who really care about you, and as for those who don’t, tell them to get the fuck away from you. Life is so much better that way.” Charlotte blurted without a second thought.

Williams smiled and stared at her pretty face, she sounded intelligent even with so much alcohol in her system, he was impressed. “I will think about it, Princess.”

“I am not Princess you hunk of a man, my name is Charlotte… now if you will excuse me… I… I…, okay I should just rest a bit,” she spoke sluggishly and lay her head on the table.

Williams chuckled and shook his head. “Women, always taking more than they can handle.” He muttered and stood up.

He took a step away and then he paused and stared back at her, she looked so innocent in her sleep. Maybe if this was the middle of the year, he wouldn’t bother leaving her here, but it was the holiday season and there were a lot of tourists in town. Williams walked back to her and then he sent for the waiter.

“Alright Cinderella, maybe I should take you home. You don’t want to spend Christmas eve in the wrong hands,” he said with a light chuckle as he helped her sit up.

“Ugh, what? Just let me sleep… go away bad man,” she grumbled under the influence.

“Not yet… The bad man hasn’t come yet, and it isn’t time to sleep either.” He replied teasingly. “You should try not to get drunk next time, Cinderella.” He added

“It is Charlotte!! How many times do I need to tell you!” she interrupted drowsily.

He laughed and helped her get up. “Tell me Charlotte, which hotel do you stay at? Maybe I can do you one tiny little favor in return for your time, tonight?” He asked as he crossed her arm over his neck. He staggered but regained his balance quickly and they both burst into laughter.

“One more step, Charlotte… almost there,” Williams muttered as he helped her climb the stairs. Why would such a big hotel not have an elevator?

They were back at her hotel, making their way to her room. It had been difficult getting the address from her as she was completely wasted on alcohol but Williams knew he had to do it or some useless dude might take advantage of her drunken state.

She wouldn’t stop giggling on the way back and the receptionist had given them a suspicious glance as they walked in. Williams used his shoulder to support her as they headed down the hallway, they finally got to the room number that was inscribed on her keys and he opened it.

“Alright Cinderella, here you go. Merry Christmas in advance,” he said with a tipsy smile as he left her to walk in.

“Come on… inside,” she stuttered excitedly and drew him in with her, closing the door behind them.

“Oh, I need to get out of this gown, it is so uncomfortable,” she grumbled amidst curses and began to undress.

“Okay, calm down, you realize I am still here right?” Williams tried to protest but she wasn’t even concerned by his presence. Before he could do anything about it, she had stripped down to her underwear and then fell face flat on the bed.

Williams cringed with a clenched fist, he was confused on what to do. He couldn’t leave her lying half naked there, he stared to the left and noticed the wardrobe. Maybe she brought night wear with her. He rushed to the wardrobe and without searching for long, he found a pink night gown in one of the hangers.

Williams got the gown out and quickly got her dressed up. It wasn’t difficult to get her in it, the difficult part was trying not to touch her boobs or ass. He made her sit up and like a baby, he put the gown on her.

After that, he gently lay her on the bed and carried her legs up, he adjusted her pillow to prevent her hurting her neck and then he sighed in relief.

“Phew!! I can't believe I am doing this, good thing she is never going to know how it happened,” he muttered to himself.

Williams turned to leave but suddenly he felt her grab his wrist, his heart flipped and he turned back to stare at her. Her eyes were still closed but she was muttering some inaudible words. He listened carefully and realized that she was asking him to stay.

“Oh man, remind me to mind my business next time.” He muttered and then he sat by her side on the bed. Williams sat there for minutes, caressing her hair as he watched her sleep. She looked so beautifully innocent in her sleep and that left him wondering why her man would dump her.

Slowly, he started to feel nature calling. He was fighting to keep his eyes open. “Okay, maybe I should just rest here for a few minutes and then I will leave,” he muttered to himself as he lay his head against the head foam of the bed, with Charlotte’s hand in his.

Ten minutes, that was all he needed. After ten minutes, he would leave, or so he thought!!
