Surprises

Lucille
"Welcome home, Lu!" Everyone chorused.
"Surprise!" Dr. Raymond's voice was the last to be heard and we all looked at him amused. To my surprise, Jade kissed him on the lips.
I stood on the doorway of NY Bistro with a wide smile and a pounding heart. Jasper was in the middle of the cozy restaurant holding a bouquet of red roses.
Steph gave me a light push and I moved toward Jasper who looked super hot in his navy blue suit that matched his eyes. Colbie Caillat’s Fallin’ for You was playing in the background.
"Hi. What is all this?" I said and
K.M REMHi, guys. Thanks for reading. So who do you want Lucille to end up with? Oh and do you think she's pregnant?

Believe me, Trust me April 15, 2009 Lucille "IT'S MINE!" Boo and Jasper said at the exact same time. I felt my cheeks burn as Dr. Steward's eyes widened and stared at me in disbelief. "I'm not pregnant. I'm on the pills, okay? And I'm careful. I just. I fainted because I cannot believe out of all the men in this city, the two of you had to be cousins and then you started killing each other. And oh yeah you had to love the same girl before too. This is just my karma for thinking I could try to.. to.. to be the playgirl for a change. Be a witchy woman! Ha! What's really funny is I thought I could manage it. Being indifferent and not minding my heart. But it turns out I have a conscience and I was gonna tell you tonight, Boo that I wa

April 22, 2009 Jasper I laid the white roses on her grave. The weather seemed to reflect my feelings as rain clouds suddenly covered the sun and thunder roared after a flash of lightning shot across the sky. “Hi, Dais. So, um, I met a girl. Her name's Lucille. She’s beautiful, smart, kind and funny. Well to tell you the truth she’s just like you. I miss you so much, you know that? Um, I’m..I’m really sorry I couldn’t help you before. For not noticing that you were suffering. I’ve hated myself for it. Lucille tells me I should let go of my anger and guilt and shame. And I'm trying, Dais. She makes me want to live life again and to let myself be loved. I’m so in love with her.” The drople

Where are you? April 22, 2009 Boo I couldn't shake off the disappointment in Lucille's face when I told her I needed to leave her at the party for a while. I wanted to tell her I was going to the police station, but I didn't want to worry her. Instead, I promised her I'd be back in a flash, but I knew she didn't believe me. I'll make it up to you, Lu. I promise. This whole frank embezzlement crisis will be over soon and then I can focus on you. It was already 7pm and while waiting for the light to turn green, I decided to call her, worried some other drunk playboy billionaire might be hitting on her at grandfather’s party. "Lu? Are

R.E.S.P.E.C.T April 22, 2009 Lucille I was dying to kiss him. Looking into his eyes, a part of me wanted to give in, while the other part of me, who was holding on to the trauma of being cheated on, kept blowing the "you're being a sluty idiot again" whistle. With our lips only inches apart, I closed my eyes and moved my head forward, surrendering to the pleasure I knew our kiss would bring. But my eyes flew wide open when my lips smacked on his palm as Jasper pushed my face away with his big hand shouting, "No. No. No. No, Lu. I won't allow you to use my body for sex again." "What?!" I glared at him, moving back to the other side of the couch.

Not Again. April 23, 2009 Boo "I DON'T CARE WHAT IT TAKES OR HOW MUCH! FIND THEM!" I said, my voice raised from frustration. It was midnight but I called three of my private investigators and Janice to my office. It's been almost six hours since I got the threatening message, but Lucille's phone is still out of coverage. Shivers ran down my spine every time it crossed my mind that she could be in danger. I even worried about Jasper being dragged in all of this. Detective Mayers said he was going to do his best, but I couldn’t sit around and do nothing because my panic attacks would go out of control. I shook my head forcing the image of Daisy’s ghost out of my mind. "Sir. I think I've got something. Jasper used his credit card at JFK for two tickets to

Two old Friends Talking Again April 23, 2009 Jasper "Here, dear, have some bacon and eggs. Do you want coffee or juice?" Lucille's mom said, putting a heap of bacon and two sunny side ups on my plate. "Thank you, ma'am. Coffee is fine. Thanks." I smiled at her and began eating. I noticed how Lucille had her mom's eyes and smile, but the rest of her face she got from her dad. Lucille sat between Boo and me. She was eating quietly and avoiding eye contact with the both of us. Boo and I on the other hand, kept glaring at each other whenever we had the chance. The truth was, I wanted to knock the daylight out of him for ruining my plans with Lucille.

All’s Fair in Love and War April 23, 2009 Lucille The farm looked even more amazing than the last time I saw it months ago. I closed my eyes and inhaled the fresh air around me. The sun kissing my skin and the wind blowing softly, made everything perfect. But of course grandpa’s loud voice broke the spell. I opened my eyes and looked their way. “Okay losers, are you ready to know what I plan to do with you?” “Yes, sir!” the two of them shouted in unison. Who do they think they are? Soldiers? “Papa Joe, what are you gonna make them do? Please don’t embarrass me.” I whisp

Challenge Accepted April 23, 2009 Boo I chewed my steak for less than five seconds and swallowed. I was eating like someone was chasing me. Never in my privileged life had I been so hungry and tired at the same time. And it was still the first challenge. It’s not like I was complaining, I mean, I work out in my gym, but not under the burning sun dehydrating me. Lucille smiled at me as she poured some cold apple juice in my glass. Even though exhaustion made me want to lie on the ground and sleep, I couldn't help but admit this was the most fun I've had in a really long time. There was a fleeting moment while running around from apple tree to apple tree that I remembered chasing Daisy in a vineyard once when we were in France. It was owned by one of my friends from college.
