SKYLAR.
He covered us with the duvet and I laid my head on his bare chest. I felt his lips pressed against my head and mumbled "Thank you" I smile and look up to him.
"You feel better now?" I asked and he chuckled softly before nodding. I smile and then his expression turned blank again, John told me everything and I couldn't help but feel sorry, he didn't even inform me since we got back home.
"Do you resent yourself?" I asked him and he look at me, "I do, I don't know but my heart is bitter because I just found out and it has to be from Abigail, Dad kept it from me. I was in the darkness for a long time" he said sadly and I placed my hand on his cheek.
"You shouldn't resent yourself, you didn't know. I'm sure they must had a reason for not telling you, please" I mumbled the last part "I can't watch you in pain, we've been through a lot, can't we just stay happy?" I said with a pleading look and he hugged me to himself.
"I've heard you,I won't" I snuggled under him and smile.
"Abigail apologized" what!
I raised my head and look at him In surprised "She did what?" This is must be shockest news of my life.
Vincent chuckled at my expression "yes, she did. I guess she is tired and want peace" he replied and I scoffed.
"Peace indeed. Wait, Amelia, why haven't I heard from her?" I asked him and he nod "she is into modeling and got chosen by a one of the Beauty company in India so apparently she is in India" he said and my mouth wowed.
"Wow, my baby" I smile and he nod.
"We are going out tomorrow" he said and I look at him curiously "where?" I asked but he shook his head "not gonna tell you, It's a secret" he said and I frowned.
"Secret?" I repeated with a pout but he chuckled "Not gonna tell you even if you give me that look" he said and pulled me more closer.
"I'm sure John would have left with Evelyn, let's just sleep" he cuddled and I smile.
He is just the best thing that has ever happened to me, I wondered where we are going tomorrow.
AT MID-NIGHT (1am)
XAVIER
"Xavier" I heard Anita's voice quetly, I squirmed slowly before opening my eyes. I sat up instantly seeing her sat up also.
"Babe, are you okay?" I asked worriedly but she shook my head, "It is getting stronger, I'm hungry, I feel like eating mountain of food right now. I can't even sleep" she ranted and my gaze fell on her flat stomach. Getting stronger at just two weeks??
"Babe, the pregnancy is just two weeks out of nine months, how is the rest of 8 months and 2 weeks gonna be?" I mumbled and she groaned.
"I don't know but right now, I want to eat bacon and eggs, you can get me chocolate first before you finish cooking" my mouth dropped at her request.
Bacon and eggs in the middle of the night?
"Xavier" she groaned and look like she is gonna cry any moment.
"Okay okay, I will just get it for you" I get down from the bed but she stopped me again.
"Hmm I think I will love to have newly fried chicken too" she added and I scoffed.
"Are you kidding me right now?" I asked because it does look like that to me.
In the middle of night?
"No, I'm not. It feels like I haven't eat anything since yesterday" she pouted and I shook my head "I will just be back" I walked out of the bedroom and dragged my leg to the kitchen.
"What the fuck! I'm going to fry chicken, prepare Bacon and eggs"
Goodness! Am I going to survive the remaining 8 months and the 2 weeks. She said it is getting stronger, what if it keeps getting stronger?
LILLY.
I groaned and covered my ear due to the sound of the alarm.
"Can you just stop?" I groaned and pick it up and shut it up in anger.
"Damn! I'm not going to work today,can you just let me breath?" I snapped and rolled my eyes.
Getting up from the bed, I sat on the chair in front of the table where I placed stuff. I opened the draw and brought out a jotter.
I palmed my face sadly seeing the debt I need to pay and my college bills, how am I going to pay?
That bald man! The next time I see him, I will be sure to kill him! He fucking make my bills to increase.
My phone rang abruptly and I dragged my leg back to the bed to check the ID caller.
I stared at the caller and made up my mind to ignore.
How can I just fall for a grumpy head stranger like that? He is not even giving space to breath, my head is just full and how I'm able to fall in love with a total stranger is baffling me.
I sworn to never let myself be used by guys ever again after what Drian did to me.
My phone rang again and I decided to picked it up.
"Hey" he speak up and it's funny I smile at his cool voice.
"Yeah hey" I mumbled and I heard his chuckled. I don't why though.
"Can you step outside for a seconds?" My eyes widened and I rushed to check if he is outside from the window and there he is looking cute early in the morning.
"Red hair" he called and I scoffed, walking away to the bed.
"It is too early Daniel, I look like a bitch right now" I said and I heard his chuckle.
"Then I'm coming in" I sprang up before I can say a words, He hang up.
Damn! I look at my room and back to myself.
Fuck! I've not even brush my teeth nor take my bath. Before I could ran to bathroom, I heard the door bell and a voice.
"Red hair, answer me" damn! I groaned and dragged my leg to the door.
He smile immediately I opened the door while I rolled my eyes.
"I've not take my bath nor brush my…" I turned to walk away as he closed the door but he wrapped his arm around me while I froze.
"You smell nice" he whispered to my ear and I almost laugh.
"Daniel, I just said I haven't take my bath" I reminded him and he chuckled against my shoulder.
"And I'm telling you, you still smell nice" I don't know but that makes me smile.
"So tell me why you are here early morning" I asked still in that position.
"I want you to go out with me" he said and I blushed.
"Then you should have called me before coming here so as to prepare myself" I said and he chuckled.
"I couldn't wait to see your face" he said and I smile. What a sweet mouth he got.
Yeah, this is how they started and at the end they will leave.
I unwrapped his arm and stay a little back while he furrowed why I did that.
"Daniel, I don't want us to do this" I told him and his face dropped.
"Why? You agreed to date me remember?" He said and I sighed.
"I don't want to get hurt again. This is how you guys started. First, it is butterflies in the belly, Sweet words to swell head and at the end you shatter heart!" I scoffed and bite my lips.
"Especially you rich guys, I know what I'm saying. Just because I'm a lowly life girl, I don't know why you guys are always finding joy in making me fall with you! When you will later break my heart!" I wasn't aware I'm already yelling until he held my hand to calm me down.
"Lilly" he called my name in a serious tone, my breath is already heavy due to how angry I am right now. I can remember how Drian also started but in the fucking end he left!
"Listening, I'm not here to hurt you. I won't hurt you, I may seem like a Playboy, yes I am" he answered and my breath stopped when he said that, he is?
"But not anymore, I only want you, as a matter of fact. I want you to come with to Mexico" What?
"Me..Mexico?" I shuttered and he nodded.
"Yes, I want you to meet my mother and I want to marry you" my eyes widened more when he said that last word.
Is he being serious right now? Meet his mother and marry me?
"Yes, I'm being serious" he answered my thoughts like he could hear them and I stayed quiet for awhile processing his words into my head.
I don't want to get hurt, I seriously don't want to.
"I promise not to hurt you" he assured while I gulped before speaking up "You promised?" I asked again and he nod.
"If you dare break my heart, I'm going to kill you" I said and hug him while he chuckled.
"I won't hurt you my red hair baby" he said and returned my hug. Mom will be so happy to hear this.
SKYLAR.
"Vincent, where is this?" I asked as he helped me down from the car and I scoffed at the Jet in front of me.
Don't tell me we are entering that jet.
"Vincent?" I stopped and he turned to me.
"Where are we going? A jet?" I asked and he smile.
"Yeah, come with me. I promise" he said and held my hand...
