Cody "Snow!" I scream and run towards the totaled car. Joseph is able to climb out, injured, with blood flowing down from his head. Snow is in the backseat, unconscious, bleeding as well. I panic and ask Joseph to help me pull her out. How did this happen? Remembering that I'm fighting my growing feelings for Snow, I get off her and walk out. I don't look back. I didn't want to look back. I head to my room and go straight to my bathroom to splash water on my face. What was I doing? I don't know. The moment I entered her room and saw her, I wanted to kiss her and taste her. It was a very intense kiss which I liked. But now I have to hate myself for it. I have to push Snow away. I don't want to love again. I must be able to control myself. But it's just so difficult when she's the only person living with me now. I used to like it when I was alone in my home. Or did I? I groan and clench my fists, restraining myself from punching a hole into the wall. How does Snow feel after I le
Snow I open my eyes and shut them, almost blinded by the lights. I turn myself to the side, away from the lights. I feel myself on a bed. I abruptly open my eyes and look around, unable to sit up. Am I in a hospital? What happened to me? All I remember was looking down on my phone texting Kylie that I was almost there. A silent gasp leaves my lips. A nurse walks into the room and hurries out when she sees me awake. After a few minutes, a doctor walks in to check up on me. He shuffles around with the nurse and walks out soon after without saying a word to me. After an hour and a half, they walk in. Sam, Lee, Kylie. Sam is in tears and the others look so sad. Sam rushes to my side and hugs me so tight that I flinch and wince in pain. I look at the door waiting for Cody to walk in, but he doesn't. "Oh sorry." She says after pulling away. "I'm just so glad to see you awake. It's been a month." She laughs through her sobs. My eyes widen. I want to speak but my voice isn't working. A m
Snow My eyes land on the hand that was above mine on the bed. Slowly, I trail my eyes up and find the owner of the hand. I swipe my hand out of his grasp, now fully awake. He shifts but doesn't wake up. "It's clear that Cody feels something for you. And if he's denying that, he has a good reason." Sam says after I tell her about our kiss. "I can't believe you're saying that. You're just defending him because he's your friend." I pout. "Ask Cody to tell you about last year." "What happened last year?" I raise my brows at her but she shakes her head. "I'm not telling you. He has to. Find the right time when he's in a good mood and ask him about last year. But don't push him when he doesn't say anything. It’s a very sensitive topic." "Why can't you just tell me?" "Because it's not something that I should be telling you. And I won't tell you even if you pout like a cute kid. Just be patient with him. That's all." I laugh. "Oh and before I forget, Cody got you fired." "What? Why d
Cody The moment I saw Snow after I walked in, the only thing that came to mind was to hug her. And I did. My heart raced at the sight of her, seeing her awake and well, with her beautiful smile playing on her pink lips. I couldn't forgive myself everytime I went to the hospital and saw her in that state. And I knew that I wouldn't be able to look at her even after she woke up from her coma. Honestly, it was so lonely without her in the house, hearing her voice and us arguing all the time. I really missed it. After I heard that Snow had woken up from her coma, I flew back from Sweden immediately. I was exhausted but I didn't care. I cared that she was alive and I wanted to see her. I stayed in her room the entire night and found myself asleep. When I woke up, she was sleeping peacefully. Not wanting to wake her, I kissed her hand and left. I don't know why I did that, but I did. I felt good about it. I know I should be fighting my feelings for Snow, but all I felt was nothing but gu
Snow "Can you tell me why your brothers don't like you so much?" She chuckles lightly. "I don't really know why they don't like me. As kids Mother always told me to take care of them. They were reckless as boys and they always got into trouble. But I didn't know why they always blamed me for the trouble they got into.” I nod. "I see. But what they have for you is hate. Maybe there's another reason why they don't like you." "Maybe. I was never able to ask them." She flashes me a sad smile. "Thanks for convincing them to let me stay." "Don't mention it. This is to make up for the time that we couldn't meet up." I look around and find Mrs Wells and her friend narrowing their eyes at me. I glare at them and turn to Kylie. "Who's your mother's friend?" "That's Kesha. One of Mother's models. She's one of Mother's best employees and has supported Mother since her business hasn't been going so well. Mother's company has been defamed." Now I felt just sad for the woman. She had lung ca
Snow "Oh, you heard?" I tease. "Cut it out, Snow. You kissed Lee and let me kiss you." He growls, making my blood boil. I don't think he has any right to be mad at me. "Why are you mad?" "You're playing my brother and I." I scoff. "No, I'm not. It's not like I wanted you to kiss me." "And yet you kissed me back." He shouts. "You initiated the kiss. I thought you said you're fighting this." "I am. You're just making it so hard." "Then why don't you just accept this? I fucking like you, even though I hate to admit it and you're pushing me away. You're hurting both of us." "I can't be selfish and have you when Lee likes you." "All this started before the kiss. All this started on the night you decided to get drunk. And now you're flirting with Kesha, getting me all confused." I blurt out . He pinches the bridge of his nose and looks away from me. Our argument is heated. Both of our chests heaving from the anger we're feeling. "Let me ask you something." I stand up with the hel
Snow "You're all good Miss Jenkins." "Thank you Doctor." With a smile, I walk out of the hospital with Sam. I'm happy I'm finally healed. No more sling, no more clutch and no more broken heart. "It's been a month." Sam begins as we walk through the busy corridor to the exit. I know what she's talking about but I'm not going to listen. "I'm not going anywhere Sam." "You're hurting him. You see that and you're ignoring him." "He did the same to me. So I don't see why doing the same to him is a bad thing." An old lady passes by and tries to get to the elevator before it closes. I run and hold the door for her. "Thank you dear. You're very kind." "Don't mention it Ma'am." We smile at each other and I get back to Sam. "Sam, I don't want to talk about him anymore. I was happy when I didn't hear his name for a month. I don't know why you're mentioning his name now." "Because he's a mess and I didn’t want you to worry about him. But go talk to him now at least." I stop and turn to h
Cody I hear a knock on my door and Kesha walks into my office. She is wearing a green dress that hugs her body too tightly, compliments her skin tone but is too short. Her lips are deep red and her hair is straight, flowing down her back. She smiles flirtatiously at me and I almost roll my eyes. I hope Mother didn't send her here. I force a smile on my face and gaze at her as she offers herself her seat in front of me. "What are you doing here Kesha?" I ask her, trying not to sound irritated. "I came to see you of course. It's been a while since we talked." She bats her eyelashes at me. "I've been busy." I state. She purses her lips. "Well, I was wondering if you wanted to come over to my place tonight and finish what we left off the other night." I almost scowl at her for mentioning that. "I can't come over." I answer sternly. "What? You're still thinking about her? It's been a month since she left you." "Don't start Kesha." "I don't think she even liked you. But I'm here. I
