Lucy's pov;At Tyler's house, While I was packing the clothes in my room, Tyler walked in asking, "Have you tried the gown again we bought yesterday…" he paused for a moment and asked, "What are you doing? Why are you packing all your dresses?""I'm leaving.""To where? Are you going on any trip?""I'm leaving this house once and for all.""Why? What happened?" I stopped packing and asked him, "Aren't you the one who said to terminate the contract?" "When did i?" "Last night when you're drunk."He rubbed his forehead and sat on the bed as he was saying, "It was just a drunk talk. Why are you taking it seriously?" He took out my clothes from the bag while saying, "Don't mind me when I'm drunk.""Don't you remember what happened last night?""I get my memories mixed up when I'm drunk. Don't worry about it. And, why are you packing your dresses without talking about it with me first?" He paused for a while and looked at me with a stare asking, "Last night, did I do something to you?"
Lucy's pov;After the cake cutting session, the people who came for the birthday party were all sitting in the living room with their glasses of wine on coffee tables, chatting away. Some were looking at pictures they took while others were just staring out of the window and listening to music. Everyone started leaving once the party was over. Daniel and Levi stayed behind and talked with Tyler. Tyler asked Levi, "Is this your plan? In my house?"He smiled at him and said, "Yeah, do you like it?""You messed up my place." Tyler turned towards me and asked, "Do you know about this?" After I nodded, he asked again, "Why didn't you say there were people in our house when we came in?" "Did you let me?" He rubbed his forehead while saying, "I can't believe I let them watch us. They're going to talk about it for a week at least."I moved closer and whispered to him, "Wasn't that what you were expecting since the beginning? I'm sure this will definitely get that old man's ears." Levi, "W
Lucy's POV;"Mr Ackerman... Mr Ackerman, wake up... Tyler, wake up… Tyler…" I woke up Tyler with a soft voice. He looked at me in confusion for a second asking, "What are you doing here..." I closed his mouth before he could say anything. "Shhh... just get up." he sat up and rubbed the last vestiges of sleep from his eyes. When I took my hands off his mouth, he said, "Lucy, what..." I whispered, "Keep it low, ok?" He asked, "What happened? why are you whispering..."When I heard footsteps approaching us, I grabbed his hand and we ran into the wardrobe. I shut the door behind me as quietly as possible but not quiet enough to prevent the footsteps from entering the room. Tyler asked, "What is going on here?" i closed his mouth and whispered, "Shhh!! Someone's gonna hear us!"The door opened and a guy walked in , probably in his late twenties or early thirties. He looked around the room with an angry look on his face. "The bedroom's clear." he walked out after shutting the door behind
Lucy's pov;The next morning, At the dining table, I asked Tyler, "Do you know the cop who came last night? you two talked like you knew him.""I do," he replied. "He was one of the guys from my class.""Is he a friend of yours?" I ask. Tyler smiles and looks up from his food."Not really, he's just another classmate I don't talk to." "Do you think they will catch those guys who broke in last night?" I ask. He nods and says, "Yeah, i'm sure they 'll get them, it'll take time, but I'm positive they'll catch them.""How long will it take?" I ask. Tyler says, "Well... I mean, that depends on whether they get them right away or not, if they're caught then we'll probably see something about it for a month, maybe even longer, but for now, we're safe." and continued eating his breakfast.Once the breakfast was finished, i tried to go to my room but Tyler called out my name and stopped me from going to my room. When i turned around, he gave me a paper while talking on his phone. I rece
Lucy's POV;Tyler tapped on my shoulder which made me turn and look at him. He asked, "What are you doing here?" I realised that I was in the kitchen and answered him, "Making lunch." And continued washing the vegetables. "You just got your cast removed. Don't strain it by cooking. Leave it to me, I'll take care of it.""It's been four days already. My hand doesn't hurt anymore."He removed the apron while saying, "We got a Christmas dinner to attend this weekend so don't get yourself in trouble by cooking." He held my shoulders and made me walk to the living room, made me sit on the couch and said, "If you feel bored, watch television. The lunch will be ready in a while." And walked back into the kitchen. I shouted while being in the living room, "Can I atleast chop vegetables for you?" "No need. Thank you for asking babe." He shouted back. "Don't you have to go to the company? Why are you still here even after removal of the cast? Aren't you worried about your company anymore?"
Lucy's pov;"Your tutor will be here anytime now." Tyler said as he sat beside me on the couch. "Wasn't it soon?" "Don't worry. He won't be taking classes for you today. It's just an introduction. And there's a surprise for you."I ignored him and looked at the movie which I was watching before he came."Aren't you going to ask me about the surprise?" I let out a sigh and asked, "What is it?""How will it be a surprise if i say it to you?" And let out a chuckle. I gave him a stare and continued looking at the movie. He pulled me closer to him saying, "Shall we go out for dinner tonight?" I pushed him away while saying, "Stop brushing against me like there's no space left."He moved away from me and asked, "Where do you want to go? Do you have any place in your mind? I'll book a reservation for us." And looked into his phone. I saw Kevin entering the house. I tapped on Tyler's shoulder and asked, "Did you invite him too?""What?" After looking at Kevin, Tyler went to greet him.
Lucy's pov;After waking up from the nap, I sat by the window and saw the garden. The snow which covered the garden's roof disappeared and I could see the flowers through it. While I was being surprised, Tyler walked in after a knock asking, "When did you wake up?" "Just now."He walked to me while saying, "After waiting for you in the living room, I came to your room to check but you were sound asleep. Didn't you sleep properly last night?" "Did you remove the snow?" "What snow?" I pointed to the garden and said, "I saw snow on the roof last night too. Where did it go?" He sat by the window along with me and said, "Yeah. The garden's looking clear, right?" "Did you do it by yourself?" He hid his hands behind him while asking, "I picked some handful of restaurants. Shall we have a look at it and decide together?" I grabbed his hands and removed the gloves to see red hands asking, "Who helped you?" He pulled his hands slowly while saying, "Since it was midnight I didn't want t
Lucy's pov;At the dining table, I took glimpses of Tyler for every bite of food I ate. How should I ask him if he saw me that day or not? Even if I ask him directly, what if he questions me back like what I was doing and for what I was looking for? Will I be able to answer that question? Tyler while eating his food, "Do I look more handsome today?" And looked at me.I rolled my eyes and continued eating my food. Tyler says, "Since we're meeting the whole for the Christmas dinner, I'll give a little intro to them so that you won't feel left out."He grabbed the newspaper nearby and placed it in front of us writing that old man's name. Mr Anderson. "My grandfather has two sons Michael and Brooks and two daughters Charlotte and Olivia from his first wife. After the first wife passed away, he remarried and got a son, Issac and daughter Annalise from his second wife. My father's name is Michael and I'm the only child. Brooks has two boys and a girl who is Daniel, Diana, Levi. Charlotte
