  • 100 Days Contract With The Bachelor   Reason behind her actions

    Jace’s POVI woke up with a banging headache and lay still for few minutes. I shut my eyes and fell asleep once more with the aim of getting rid of the headache before waking up. The hangover from the alcohol I took made me weak.

I leaned back against the bed frame and the incidence of the previous day flooded my memory.With a sigh, I gently rubbed my temples and shook my head as I remembered getting wasted to the point where I poured out my heart contents and grievances to Stacy and she consoled me.Stacy has been with me as a friend for as long as I remember and I completely trust her more than anyone else but I’ve been having my doubts about her and reasons to doubt her as well but I didn’t want them to be through as she’s been the only one who stayed with me come rain come sunshine.
