Adrian, who was in the verge of taking another sip of water from his glass, choked a little before recovering himself. For such a smart man, it sure took him some time to figure out which scorpion I was talking about.

"Ah, so we're talking about Ms. Scorpes here?" His lips curled up at the corners but he smartly disguised it as a cough when I narrowed my eyes at him.

I ignored him and my mouth took over from there despite the warnings issued by my brain. "Did you know that the name Rochelle means little rock? In other words, little Stone. She literally has you in her name. I wouldn't be surprised if she's planned your wedding in her head." I didn't even know why I was doing this- trying to sabotage our relationship before it even lived a day. All I knew was my insecurities, which I didn't even know existed until today were crawling around me, planting a vice grip around my heart, trying to protect it from getting hurt while at the same time suffocating it in the process.

    From the moment I made the decision to meet his parents, I'd let myself imagine what Adrian's room would look like. There were a few things that had come to my mind and I was curious to find out if my mental picture of his room matched with the reality.His room wasn't what I imagined it to be like. Granted, it did look like a typical teenage boy's room with soccer trophies and The Beatles' posters. But at the same time, it looked more than just that. The first thing I noticed upon entering were the walls, which were blue in color, the kind of blue that immediately reminded me of Adrian's eyes.The walls were covered with countless photo frames and some paintings. I could feel Adrian watching me carefully as I walked inside to take a closer look at the walls. It was as if he expected me to faint then and there. I didn't realize what the whole fuss was about until I finally had a look at the photos.The entire wall was covered with photos of his childhood, or, to be precise, our childh

    The boy let out a small squeal as Adrian leaned down and lifted him up, settling him on his lap. I watched in fascination and the arrogant devil completely disappeared behind the caring uncle mode Adrian was currently sporting. The boy whispered something into his ear, making him chuckle softly. Adrian smirked and looked at me with amusement while the little boy was blushing deep red. "Eve, this is my little nephew, Luke. He's got something to tell you." He turned to the boy then. "Here, I made the introductions. Why don't you tell her yourself now?" Adrian nudged him, making the boy redder than he already was.While I was curious about what the little man had to say to me, I didn't want to torment the poor boy by embarrassing him further. So I narrowed my eyes at Adrian with the intent of scolding him when a small voice reached my ears."I think you're pwetty. Like an angel."I turned my surprised gaze to Luke, only to see him jump out of Adrian's lap and run to hide behind his mothe

    Indeed, it was the new little member shining amidst the entire Stone-Marshall family. Everyone was looking in amazement as her cry suddenly turned into an adorable smile at her grandpa who was making silly faces at her. The sight of this family brought a familiar ache upon my chest. I had a half mind to return back, not wanting to intrude on a family moment. But clearly reading my thoughts, the devil tightened his grip in my hand, effectively blocking my escape. Damn him, the mind-reading witchy devil!"Ah, the granddaughter arrives and your son is long forgotten. So this is how it is supposed to go from now on, isn't it?" I didn't have the time to pull the idiot's ears for announcing his- our- presence as every member of the family turned their heads our way. I assumed with mortification that my face must now resemble a 12 years old girl with her face dunked in tomato ketchup. I couldn't even stop the blush when Jade's little girl looked at me curiously. I huffed inwardly. The CEO of

    "This place feels weirdly familiar." I commented as I observed the large mansion in front of us.We were currently standing in front of Adrian's home, in Hillcrest Avenue, New Jersey. It was a beautiful place, one that looked like a castle the Disney Princesses lived in with their happily ever after. It was two storeyed and built in such a way that made it look like a cottage, just much larger. The house radiated elegance despite its modest and simple exterior. There was a cherry blossom tree in the left corner in front of the house with lovely pink little flowers scattered all over. For a moment I felt like I'd suddenly walked into a magical world."As it should. You did live here." Adrian pointed out, effectively pulling me out of my thoughts before I mentally wrote poems about his home. I blinked in surprise as his words registered in my mind. I'd completely forgotten about that fact. I looked around and saw that there was another identical house a few meters away from his. I wonde

    She didn't say anything but nodded again. I sighed. I'd have to live with that for the time being. I didn't want to think about it now. Deciding to save the talk for later, I asked her to order something for dinner and went to my room to freshen up. Before I could step out of her room, though, Eva rushed to me and wrapped her arms around me from behind. "Thank you for not outwardly denying to let me join college, Evie. I'm sorry again if I hurt you. I should've told you first, before Allie."I turned my head to the side and chuckled. "Don't be stupid, Eva. I won't chain you here forever. I just wished you'd waited for a few months before applying. And yeah, I still hope you'd choose FIT instead. But I won't let my fears hold you down when I know that you can fly much higher on your own."Her arms around me got a little tighter and I smiled, all my worries gone with a simple hug from her. "I love you, Evie", Eva mumbled against my back, sending a wave of warmth within me- this time a d

    I walked out of the elevator with my eyes fixed to my phone. Allie had decided to come and stay with Eva the whole day and I'd just received a video of them covered in pink. From their hair to the toenails. They even had stupid pink wigs attached to their skulls.Rubbing the faint ache on the side of my head, I was about to get to my car when I noticed I wasn't alone. My favorite car in the whole wide world sat there proudly while its owner leaned against it with his hands inside his pockets and a lovely smile on his face.I took a moment to send my multiple heart eyed looks to the elegant grey beauty of Aston Martin. My traitorous eyes then trailed back to its equally magnetic owner and stayed there as a paralyzed honeybee. The sight of his smile, combined with that magical light in his eyes made my heart jump rapidly against my chest, as if it would come out of my body right then and fly towards his.Shaking my ridiculous thoughts and reprimanding myself for sounding so cheesy albei
