CHAPTER 35:THE TRAGIC END
JAMIE
Oh my God, I could just die. Was what I thought when I looked at myself in the mirror. I was rocking a red dress that was a little below the knee and trying my best to contain my exciting emotions.
Dinner with Mason.
I was excited about tonight, I was excited about seeing him after our few days apart. Those days felt like forever. A part of me was really worried about how this dinner will go. We didn't exactly leave things off on a good note when he left so I still don't know where we stand.
"That dress looks stunning on you. Red is so your colour."Sara grinned."I think you should accessorise with gold. Those two work really well together."
"Let's move onto shoes next then."I turned and looked in the mirror again. I hope he likes

Penelope CHAPTER 1:I'M BACK.
MASONI walked out of the airport and into the waiting black Mercedes. It was July now, almost a year and a half since I left New York City and my life behind me. Everything still looked the same to me as it did before I left, yet life was completely different. I was different! At least that's what I've been telling myself. All that time I spent trying to find myself again, it wasn't all for nothing. I wouldn't be back if I wasn't a changed man. "It's been a long time,Son."My Father said, from the other side of the back seat. "How have you been--where have you been?" "Everywhere, I didn't stay put for too long." I turned my head and
Penelope CHAPTER 2:HE'S BACK!!
JAMIEWhen I looked up and saw his face, at first I thought my eyes were deceiving me. That was until I pinched myself, most likely hard enough to leave a mark. He's here- He's really here. Why? It's been so long, so much time has passed and so much has changed. I put him behind me but now he's back, he had only just spoken a word but seeing his face was enough to drag all my anger to the surface. Already I felt like a kettle on the stove, almost at it's boiling point. "Mason Knight..."I whispered. "Thee Mason Knight, The
Penelope CHAPTER 3: THE DINNER.
JAMIEThe wanderer has finally returned!!They're not happy about it. They're my best friends, they have a right to be worried about him being back. He left, so easily, like I didn't matter to him at all. They were there to pick up the pieces.Carmen and Ethan stuck by me just like they always do. They were my support through the toughest moments of my life, I know more than anything else that that will never change.Unfortunately I can't say the same for Mason Knight. I don't know if he's changed, I hope he has purely for himself, but I don't see it happening. It was stupid of me to think that in the past. I won't make that mistake again!!"What are you going to do about the dinner?"Harry asked, grabbing my attention from the people that were passing by the window of the coffee shop.In thought I had become distracted by the people that were passing by, rushing to
Penelope CHAPTER 4:PENELOPE
MASONI can't believe it!! All this time I've been gone, travelling the world trying to figure my shit out, I never knew what I had left behind.. A Daughter!! I leaned back against the wall of the elevator."This can't be true!"This isn't me, I'm not Father material. I don't know the first thing about raising a child. I stepped out of the elevator feeling the rage, as I walked towards my Father's office. How could he not tell me about this? I've seen more of him than anyone since I've been back, how could he not say something. I pushed open the door to my Father's office and walked inside. I saw that he was already gone.
Penelope CHAPTER 5:THE SPARE TIRE.
JAMIEI looked down at the binder that I was holding in my arms. The Montgomery's had added 4 extra tables of 6 to their anniversary party overnight. Luckily I was equipped to deal with this kind of situation at last minute.Mrs Montgomery's turned to me and smiled."Is that okay, Darling?""Of course."I smiled back."I penciled it in for 4 extra table. We just need a decision on napkin colours, other than that we're pretty much set for your special day."Mr Montgomery chuckled."I'll leave this one to you, Dear.""I assumed you would."She looked at him adoringly. I found it cute that after 50 years together they were this much in love. It makes me think of my own Mom and Dad."Perfect, I'll go us a couple of sample colours."I left the Montgomery's to chat while I grabbed my napkins from the office. Five minutes later I was back but there was one other person with them.
Penelope CHAPTER 6:THE INTERRUPTION
JAMIEBrent had finally shown his face, but a part of me wished that he didn't. Either way the night will end with Carmen upset because of him. He always manages to put her down in some way, but of course she just laughs it off and acts like it doesn't bother her.He's not a good guy!!Brent's not right for her.. I don't think he cares about her, at least not in the way he should do as a future husband. Carmen's my best friend and I want to protect her, but I don't think she'll see it like that if I express my true feelings."I'll have the steak and a whisky neat." Brent closed his menu and handed it back to the waiter."I'll have.."Carmen started, whilst looking down at her menu."She will have the caesar salad."Brent looked at Carmen."You have a wedding dress to fit into. We don't want you piling on the pounds before the big da
Penelope CHAPTER 7: STUCK IN THE MIDDLE
JAMIE He wasn't happy about it, just like I wasn't. My Father wasn't all that happy about Mason Knight showing his face, after everything he's done. He wasn't happy about him being back in my life, nor Penelope's either. Because of this, I was the one facing of wrath of Clay Harris. I guess Mason will be too if my Parents don't leave before he gets here. "I'm not happy about this, Jamie. No, I don't like it!"He shook his head. Of course i pulled a face, knowing exactly what he was going to say. His every word. It's the same thing my Father always says when he doesn't like a situation.
Penelope CHAPTER 8:GIVING ME NO CHOICE
MASON"He does a good job.. He works hard." My father stated."A good job?"I shook my head with a chuckled."I like Eoin, but there's more than a handful of typos on this page alone. We shouldn't have to keep him on just because he's family.""I think we owe him that much after everything he's done. He was the one that stepped in when you weren't around, Remember?""I bet it was such an inconvenience to his life."I replied, sarcastically. When my father didn't reply I rested back in my chair with a sigh."It's your choice if you want to keep him on. You're the boss here.""When the time comes the business will be passed on to you. It'll be good to keep some people around that you can trust."Trust.. Not likely!! I don't do trust. I'm just not that guy that puts his trust in others. That's never been me. I've never been that man.
