The car stopped in front of the Watson family’s yard, and Belle quickly stepped out. It was 7:00 p.m. when she returned home. She didn’t want to spend too much time with Felix, because Belle needed to think.

When Felix asked Belle out, she didn’t give him an immediate answer. She told him she needed time to think it over—even though, honestly, it wasn’t something that hard.

After that, things became awkward between them. Belle felt herself pulling away, becoming cautious around Felix. It wasn’t fair of her to do that, either.

“Thanks, Felix. See you on campus,” Belle said.

“Are you sure you don’t want me to walk you to the door?”

Belle shook her head. “Yeah, no. It’s fine.”

She quickly waved and ran into the house. Belle hurried up the stairs to her room. Belle didn’t even greet anyone as she entered, her mind in a complete mess.

Belle climbed onto her bed and grabbed her phone. The first name that came to mind was, of course, Eve.

“Hello?” Eve answered after less than a minute of rin

    "Enough!"Eve was startled by her own outburst and realized how upset she had become. Belle had grown distant, almost avoiding her altogether. Now, Felix dared to tell her to stay away from Belle.Who did he think he was? If it weren't for Eve encouraging Belle to give Felix a chance, Belle never would've become his girlfriend. Yet, when Felix confronted her, Eve couldn't say a word.She was too shocked.Now, Belle was acting as if she knew nothing. So naïve, Eve thought."Eve, don't be like this." Belle's eyes looked like she was about to cry."Belle, I don't want to talk about it, okay? I'm not comfortable with this.""Eve, please. Tell me. I don't want us to misunderstand each other. I swear I don't want to grow apart from you," Belle pleaded."I'm not misunderstanding…" Eve huffed sharply. "Oh, God, Belle, just drop it, okay? I'm not going to drag this out.""I'll talk to Felix about it.""Talk about what?"That voice came from behind them. Both Belle and Eve turned to find Felix.

  • Owned by the Fighter   28. Quiet Lies

    Was getting into a relationship with Felix really the right decision? Belle started questioning everything. Day by day, there was always something that made Felix grow more protective of her. And that made Belle uncomfortable.Felix began to complain whenever Belle spoke to her classmates, most of whom were guys. Yet, there was nothing romantic about it. Two weeks into dating, Belle started to feel like she was being slowly tied down.As soon as Belle entered her room, she heard the sound of a text notification. When she checked, it was from Felix.“You home yet? Send me a photo. I can’t relax until I know you’re safe, babe.”Every time Felix expressed his concern, he wrapped it in sweet words, leaving Belle speechless. She snapped a picture of herself already inside her room and sent it without adding a message.“You look gorgeous. Alright, as long as you’re home safe. If you’re going anywhere, let me know. I’ll drive you.”Belle replied briefly:“Okay.”Then she placed her phone an

    The ribbon was neatly tied at the top of the brown paper wrapping that covered Belle's pottery. A smile tugged at Bastian's lips; he couldn't hide his happiness. Seeing the finished result looking so beautiful filled him with pride. He thought to himself, Belle's going to love this.With a quiet sigh, Bastian grabbed his phone and typed a message to Belle."Your absurd bowl is done. Want me to drop it off at your place?"It didn't take long for Belle's reply to come in."Hahaha, hilarious! I bet it looks amazing. You don't have to bring it over. Can you just leave it with Anthony? I'm heading to his shop.""Oh, really? Okay then, let's meet at Anthony's."Sliding his phone into his pocket, Bastian got up, grabbed his jacket, and headed out with the package. He was just about to step outside the pottery gallery—which was about to have its grand opening soon—when Renee suddenly walked in."Baby!" Renee called out, throwing her arms around him.But she quickly noticed that Bastian didn'

    "Belle! Felix is here!" Mrs. Watson called from downstairs.Belle froze, still sitting in front of her vanity. For a moment, she hesitated—part of her wanted to cancel the plan altogether.But eventually, she stood up. Wasn't she the one who wanted to move on and forget about Bastian?As Belle headed downstairs, she spotted Felix waiting by the front door. He looked handsome in a blue-and-black plaid shirt layered over a black T-shirt—casual and straightforward for someone born with a silver spoon.Belle stood beside her mom and gave Felix a small, awkward wave. "Hi."Felix smiled politely. "Hi.""Are you two going on a date?" Mrs. Watson teased.Belle immediately shook her head. "We're just going out for a bit, Mom. It's not a date," she emphasized.She glanced at Felix, who seemed to catch on."Yeah, not a date, Mrs. Watson. We're just grabbing lunch—maybe some burgers or something," Felix said with an easy grin."Oh, I see. Well, at least someone's taking Belle out besides Eve."Mr

    "For me?" Belle gasped in surprise. "What's the occasion for giving me a gift?""It's your birthday.""But that was months ago.""Well, I haven't given you anything yet."Belle fell silent, but the blush rising on her cheeks said it all. Bastian walked over to the cabinet and pulled out a large box. Inside, it was full of clay."Shall we start now? What do you want to make?" he offered."I…"Belle should've said something—anything—to cover up her nervousness. But her mind went blank. She just stood there, frozen, watching Bastian set up the banding wheel and place the clay on top.He pulled out a stool and patted it lightly. "Sit down.""What do you expect me to make?""Anything you want. We could make a vase, an urn, or maybe a bowl?""I don't have any idea." Belle chuckled softly. "Buildings?"Bastian laughed with her. "That'll be your job one day. This is mine.""Well, okay."Belle sat down, her heart racing. Her eyes darted toward Bastian, who filled a bowl with water and placed i
