12 -You Don't Love Me?
Alex's POV;
Damon and I make it into the elevator, and we stand in silence as he presses the button that leads to the first floor.
"Thank you for calling me. "He suddenly says, and I inhale deeply before looking down at my nails.
"No need to thank me. She's your mom. "I reply, and silence once again fills the elevator.
"Why are you doing this? "He suddenly questions and my heart vibrates in fear. I had been dreading him asking this question. I didn't want him to.

He takes a step towards me, and I quickly recline.
"I don't love you, Damon. What

Alex's POV; "You know, I really think Amos likes you. "Sia says before picking up a red dress and glaring at it scrutinizingly under the bright, white bulbs far above us. "Excuse you? "I question her with raised brows, and a hand on my waist. She takes a look up at me, and back at the dress, before quickly looking back up at me. "What? I know he does. I just don't know if you're being intentionally blind or have become some naive plain Jane. "She replies before dropping the dress back on the pile. "Come on, Sia. Amos is just a friend. He's been since college. "I note. "Yeah, that explains all the sudden kisses on the hands and cheeks, red roses, and trail of every secret admirer thing he ever did back in high school, and up till now.

I get to the venue Amos's driver brought me to. The Raven's Suit. It's exquisite and has an amazing glow at night. Coming to this place has been part of the to-do list at the back of my mind, but I just keep forgetting or never had time to come. Amos was going to give me a surprise, but I forced the name of the venue out of him, and partially, I'm not happy I did. If I didn't know I was coming here, I won't have told Sia, and she won't have dressed me up like someone going to some fancy gala. I'm in a flowing black dress that shows a lot of skin. It's a low-back dress that is open in such a way my whole back is out, and the coverage begins from the top of my bottom and flows down till my feet are covered. Then it has a slit in front, that starts from my right thigh, all the way down. I'm in gold heels and am with a golden purse. The sleeves of this dress are long though. As if compensating for the missing covering at my back. I thank G

Alex's POV; "Oh, wow. I'm still alive. " Amos groans as he shifts in the hospital bed, and my heart jumps in glee as I feared it will take a lot of time for him to come around.

"Amos, I'm so sorry my husband acted out like that. We're about to get divorced and, I honestly didn't see this coming. I... I didn't know he'd be there, and I... I swear I didn't know this will happen. I'm so sorry he... "I begin to beg in embarrassment as tears begin to form afresh in my eyes as I take his hands which are on his stomach. "Hey, hey, hey.
