Chapter Twenty-Eight
"I swear something smells awfully funny..." Fiona said as we walked into the manor. Sebastian's face was red from holding in his laughter, and I, being more dazed than him, went into a fit of minor paranoia. Seriously, I felt like we were going to go to jail any second, or an asteroid was going to crash into the manor or something. Either way, I was more afraid than usual. I kept my composure in front of Fiona, but I knew as soon as I was able to go to my room I would check under my bed for bombs or spiders.
God forbid it be spiders.
Fiona had a phone call waiting for her, so she left us in the waiting room. As we made our way upstairs, I stopped midway and looked at Sebastian.
"What's wrong?" He asked, with a sly smile.
"Di-did y

Maybe he gave someone else a Teddy bear, maybe it isn't me. It cant be me, it cant! These thoughts raced through my mind as I frantically looked through my contact list on my phone. Who the hell was I trying to call, though? The only person I could possibly tell this all to was Beth, considering Paul is probably with his boyfriend at the moment. L.A. is two hours behind Tennessee, so odds are she's sleep right now. Fuck it, this is crucial. I pressed the call button and waited, my legs shaking uncontrollably. I thought this was all some sick joke of some sort. There was no way, that a Harris-no,twoHarrison brothers could be attracted to me. It was impossible. Physically impossible. They could literally have any girl they wanted on this earth, but...they

____ That day, I decided to walk out into the Rose Garden to handle some business regarding Sebastian's baby scandal, as well as the Keplin Pre school volunteer work he had set up for next week. Garret called, a bit furious at Sebastian. I told him that everything was under control when in reality I didn't know how everything would play out with Norman and Maria on Friday. Still, Garret trusted me enough to let me handle it without expressing the entirety of his worry. Lucas and Sarah asked if I needed any help with anything, and tried to sit down with their laptops, but I shook it off and told them I had it under control. I knew the only reason Sarah wanted to join me was because of her outburst yesterday. Guilt wasn't going to work on me; I already knew that her apology was

The rest of the week consisted of hate mail from Maria and representatives of Maria, claiming that she will sue me for every penny I have. I've been through this many times, Maria. You're going to have to try harder than that. I decided to start asking for my breakfast, lunch and dinner up in my room. Fiona asked why and I just told her that I have been more busy than before, when in reality I wanted to avoid the Harrison brothers. They were growing more and more competitive towards each other. Whether it be opening doors to pulling out chairs. It was extremely flattering to say the least but embarrassing. Everyone noticed the little act they were playing, and I'm surprised none of them have caught on. Exactly a week after the meeting with Norman and Maria on the tenth of February,

"Do you ladies need a hand?" William said. I declined his offer and stood up on my own, while Beth grabbed Sebastian's hand and thanked him, smiling like a child in a candy store. Sebastian was enjoying my best friend's presence as well. At that moment, I hated Beth. I hated my heels. I hated everything. William could tell I was extremely embarrassed and found it amusing. "I'm fin-we'refine." I spat. As I brushed the dirt off my skirt, my heelless shoe made me lose my balance. Before I could fall on the concrete, William caught me with his damp arms. I grabbed onto his shoulder for support, pulling myself up to meet his gaze. We were inches apart now. After a few seconds of gazing into his eyes, with him gazing into mine, I awkwardly pushed myself off of him. I turned

"So Beth, how do you and Leslie know each other?" Sebastian asked, turning his head to look at my best friend. I noticed his eyes wandering over her body, and I rolled mine. Seriously? Next to the woman you're supposedly attracted to? "Seriously, Sebastian? She's hurt and you're asking her that?" William said. Sebastian looked at his brother with irritation in his eyes. "It's OK. I work for Harrison inc. In finance." She answered. Sebastian raised an eyebrow. "Finance? I would think you would be a little higher up than that." "Sebastian..." William hissed. Sebastian ignored his brothers warning. "I mean, look at you: you're gorgeous." I knew Beth was blushing, and my face was flushed red now too. But for a different reason.

I woke up before Beth, feeling sore from yesterdays fall. I was still upset about my broken heel but frankly I had more things to worry about. Williams gift sat on the bedside table, sparkling in the morning sun light. I didn't have the urge to put it on no matter how much Beth begged, because I didn't know how to react to it. The first thought that came to mind for me was that he was trying to buy his apology. But then again, we had no time to actually talk to each other since we were busy after the cart incident, so maybe he'll apologize today. Either way, I knew today was going to be eventful. I dragged myself out of bed and tied my hair back up into a bun. Slipping on my sandals, I reached for the door knob only to be stopped by the sparkling bracelet that mocked me. It would be

"I can't do this, William," I said, taking my coffee cup and starting for the door. He lightly grabbed my arm, flung me around and planted his lips onto mine. At that moment I forgot everything that I had planned to do. All I cared about was the kiss. So soft and gentle...but I couldn't be doing this! I couldn't let my feelings get in the way of why I was really here. In truth, I didn't know what to feel for William. I was letting the past get in the way of me actually letting go and allowing my heart to make decisions. One part of me liked William while the other just wanted him to leave me alone so I wouldn't get hurt again. I pulled away after coming to my senses "William I-" "No, don't say you can't do this, or that this isn't right, because its right for me, and I know it's right for you. You can keep pushing me away but-but Ill

As we watched Sebastian force himself to be happy in front of the press, the realization that it was Valentine's Day hit me again. I needed to get something for William. I figured I would keep it small. Chocolate. Everyone loves chocolate. I saw a small general store with Valentines Day themes spread out inside, so I figured that would be the best place to start. "Hey Lucas, do you think you can cover the press monsters for a few minutes? I need to go to the store." Lucas nodded, and I crossed the street and made my way into the store. An elderly lady looked at me and smiled when I walked in. "Hey, dear. You with them press people across the street?" She said, in a thick southern accent. "Yeah, sorry for the uh-intrusion."
