Chapter 20
She wanted to get rid of it.
Now sitting in her balcony, Lorraine was high on weed. Too high and overthinking. It was funny because she hadn't overthought in quite some years.
Of course, after winning an Oscar, anyone was bound to think that now their life would be of respect and self pride. But the reality was far different, for Lorraine was facing the biggest downfall of her career.
Her director was threatening to fire her from the movie and now she is most definitely caught up in a scandal with Sebastian Phoenix. It's as if all her tears had vaporized due to the heat of her rage.
But what will happen to Sebastian now? He had told her he wanted to stay away from media attention for a while. She didn't know but she knew that the whole world was his fan. They're gonna come at her too.
Why should she care? All she knew was to gift that godforsaken of a director a nice bottle of champagne an

The dusk had set into night and the hospital had become silent. Sebastian had forgotten about all the crowd and fans and didn't want to come to any conclusion of wether they were still standing out or have left.All he could feel was this burning sensation in him, mixed with anger, the familiar race of his heart when he was near Lorraine and scared. He thought this would go away when he'd see Lorraine for once and made sure that she was well but no, he ended up sitting outside her room and refusing to move.Along the empty hallway of the hospital, he wished that his mind and heart were as empty too. All he had thought about was Lorraine and their consequences and he felt depressed already; let alone be the thought of media and his manager back there in New York.Perhaps his heart had had enough, but within the next beat, tears were falling down his eyes. He let a few years fall, realising there was no one around,

Lorraine was going to kill someone. While she was hospitalised, she had not gotten the time to check up on social media. But now, that she had been discharged, and preparing to go to New York because the headass had fucking ordered her – the audacity of the man – But she was still going. And she refused to acknowledge the fact that she was going because she didn't want Sebastian to lose his career over a goddamn kissing scandal. Kissing scandals were minor for her, not for Sebastian as he had just gotten dr m his one year mental-break. It created a bad reputation of not working hard and being distracted. There were all sorts of comments like 'its Sebastian Phoenix y'all, of course he had to do it. That too with Lorraine Acker. He

It was nearing night when they got out of the office and reached the elevator, Lorraine got in first and her skin prickled when Sebastian entered the lift. She could almost imagine that Sebastian's next move would be to pin her against the metal wall, but thankfully, his anger was limited to his eyes glaring holes into her.They reached back to the car, sitting and driving out. Thankfully, Sebastian drove from the back to avoid the reporters."Drive to my apartment." She said, opening her phone to track it through GPS."You're coming to mine."Lorraine snapped her neck towards Sebastian so quickly her neck ached. She just couldn't believe him."I don't know what goes on in your head, Sebastian Phoenix, but I'm not living with three men in a house from which two of them I barely know and one of them is a fucking douchébag."She could see Sebastian's jaw clen

Lorraine sat at the bed defeatedly, staring into nothingness as tears welled up in her eyes, her throat burning with emotions...and also for the sentence she was going to say next. She closed her eyes and inhaled deeply, her eyes boring into the fire burning in the fireplace.But the heat was nothing compared to what Sebastian's body was radiating beside her. It was something so entirely bizarre. There were just too many emotions and she couldn't now, she just couldn't. She had had enough."I love you, Sebastian." She breathed out so defeatedly, shaking her head as the sudden rush of fear rippled through her. "I've always had, you've made me feel things I thought were never possible if not acting in a movie."Sebastian's head didn't snap towards her, instead, a tear dropped from his eye, staring into the same fire as hers."I tried to avoid it so much but it still happened. But if I have to choose between

Lorraine was not usually a pessimist. But she couldn't help but make the worst possibility in her mind when it came to officially meeting the Phoenix brothers. They had talked through video calls many times, she was well aware with their names and all. It was just the fact that she had practically ruined everything for them with her ego. They didn't deserve to go through the criticism they went through because of the mess Sebastian and Lorraine created. Yet, when she met them, there was no sign of bare hate towards her. They were just as warm, just as radiant. Even though the littlest one was a little cocky, there was no sign of guilt trip in their conversation and it made Lorraine feel even more bad than what she was feeling already.
Intimately Enchanted Chapter 27
If ever Lorraine wanted to wake up and see someone's face the first thing in the morning, it'll be his. Sebastian was the most endearing and selfless person she had ever met. A sweetness that was too much for his own good. Right now cladded into the thick blanket, veiled by a deep slumber, torn away from the real world. All Lorraine could think while looking at him was that he needed rest, he needed a break from all of this. He had done nothing to have been attacked the way they were last night. Even while asleep, Sebastian's hand was wrapped tight around her form, like he needed to feel she was beside him to calm his rushing mind and be asleep. It made her chest clench achingly. Her hand reached out to trace a finger down the bridge of his nose, brushing back the hair that fell on
Intimately Enchanted Chapter 28
It hadn't been on Lorraine's list to go.Her initial plan had been to send the brothers to her island for a long vacation away from her. Not with her. Because she thought they had had enough of her troubles for a run in.But then as soon as she had noted Sebastian that she'd be going back to LA he had immediately refused to go to the island in Bahamas without her. She had been stuck because she really needed to go back to LA, clear up her mess, apologize to her cast and crew for being so unpunctual and atleast give a few scene takes before going to the island. Because after the vacation, both of them will be up their necks with work and wouldn't find the time to be with eachother.So she had agreed, but she'll be coming late because of her work in LA. When she went back to LA though, things narrowed down to her own friends. Matt, Ivey, and Ana. They hadn't shut up with the questions, which she had gingerly answere
