"Ah, you're awake. Good morning"

It was Jack. How did I get here?! I shifted away from him, a look of pain crossed his face when I did that.

"H-how did I get here?"

"I saved you. Do you remember?" He was so calm. he has never been this calm.

Flashbacks of yesterday ran through my head. She was going to kill me! But how did he know?

"I have to go," I said getting up from the bed.

"To where? Xavier's place?" He said Xavier's name with disgust.

And yes, that was where I was going. To see my child.

"Carrie is here." He said.

What?! That means he has met her. But I still have to leave this place, there was no way I was going to stay here.

I pretended I didn't hear him, you could tell he was growing angry and irritated. That's how he has always been. He gets angry quickly.

"Leave, please." I pleaded. I had to get ready. His jaw clenched before going outside.

Immediately after he left I ran to the door, locking it.

I quickly had my bath. It was funny because all my clothes had already been brought here.

I got ready. Packing back my things and my bag, I got out. I have to look for Carrie.

I looked around for Daisy, where could she be?

"You're going to fucking go to him?" I turned to see Jack. He was in pain. Because I was going back to Xavier's house?

I don't even know why I was so desperate to go back to Xavier's place. It was not because I own or work for him.

I felt something for him. Was I in love with him?

"I-"

"You what? Don't tell me you have feelings for him." He sneered out.

I guess that angered me. "And what if I do?! It's none of your business! You're just my ex-"

"Shut.up." he gritted. His jaw was clenching and unclenching.

"I get it, you saved me. But that doesn't give you any access to my life!"

By now I was pinned to the wall. "I have every fucking access to you! You heard that?!" He growled.

Why was he like this? Did he take pills or something?

I was crying. "N-no you don't! Y-" I was cut off when he started sulking my neck. He was going to rape me!

I tried pushing him off but he won't budge.

"No! Please s-stop, don't do this. Please." I cried. I managed to tear myself from him. Going to the doorway. He caught me before I could move. The gown I was wearing was torn.

"Please Jack, don't do this. I beg of you. Please." I cried. He suddenly released me and I fell to the floor crying. Holding my scattered hair.

He seems to have just noticed what he had done. He looked at his hand before growling. "Ahhhhh"

I remained there on the floor, too weak to do anything, I was just crying.

Third Person's POV:

After what had happened between Jack and Lily, Jack had left. He didn't trust himself with her.

He had ruined his chance of getting back with her. But he wasn't going to give up. He loved her so much. He would do anything to get her to love him again. Anything.

Lily left Jack's house with Carrie after he had left. She just reached Xavier's place. She was holding herself not to breaking down in front of Daisy.

When she reached in she took Carrie back to her room. She put her back to sleep. All Lily wanted at that moment was some time to herself.

She went to the living room. A figure in front of her. Her head slowly lifting, she saw Xavier. He had just come back.

•••

Lily's POV:

I slowly looked up to see Xavier. When did he get here? He was in his suit, his hair was styled. He looked so handsome.

"What happened?" He must have noticed I have been crying. I suddenly broke down again.

Wrapping my hand around him. I cried on his chest. He froze but eventually wrapped his arms around me.

I felt safe in his arms. We stayed like this for a long time.

What was I doing?!

I slowly separated myself from him.

"What happened." He demanded. I can't tell him. No, I can't.

So I lied.

But he didn't believe me...

~

Two months later:

It's been two months since the incident. My relationship with Xavier has improved. Not that type of relationship.

I went back to work and everything was normal again. I haven't heard from James.

Xavier and Paisley are engaged. Anytime she was over at Xavier's house, she'd be mean to me and Daisy. That was why I was planning to buy an apartment. I just met with an agent.

~

I just reached the hospital with Daisy. We were going to see Layla. Daisy would probably be surprised to see two of me. Layla just woke up three days back.

We entered the room. Layla was eating. She didn't seem pleased to see me.

She had never seemed pleased to see me.

Her eyes dropped on Carrie, before going back to me. She had never been a fan of kids.

She rolled her eyes.

I almost laughed when Carrie looked at me and her and started crying.

I rocked her. "What are you doing here, and what's that?" She referred to Carrie

I rolled my eyes. "She is a who, and her name is Carrie. She is my daughter." I should have been angry.

"She has a father? Or you were whoring around." That hurts.

"She has a father... We divorced." A look of sorry passed through her face but was gone as soon as it came.

She does care deep down.

"A guy came over, he had asked for you. He said I should give you this." She said, giving me a brown bag with papers in it.

Who brought this?

I looked at it. My heart started beating fast. Who sent this.

'I want you to meet me at vanity zeaJessie Knight

    We drove for like 40 mins, we stopped at a huge mansion. I thought we were going to a restaurant or something. He came out and walked passed me. I scowled.Holding Carrie's hand I trailed behind him. There were men in suits, they stood at the entrance of the house but they separated when I was about to pass. Whoa.I quickly passed, entering a big building, some people were arranging the hall, maybe they were going to be a party, I guess."Yeah, this is her." I saw Xavier talking to a lady, she nodded at me and motioned for me to follow her. I raised an eyebrow confusingly before I followed her.We reached a room, i walked in with her. Did he bring us here so we could sleep here? Of course not, why would he do that? I sat Carrie on the bed. "I suggest you go take a bath now." She said.Why? "I'd be right back." She walked out. I slapped my face frustratingly. I moved to the door where the bathroom must be. And there was a bathtub, I'm pretty sure they had kept something inside that wat

    My smile grew.I turned around to see Layla opening the freezer and Carrie poking her teddy bear.They were real."I would prepare something for you now and then you'd go have some rest, you look tired," Layla said as if I was lost and found one.I am surprised she does rare."No no. I'd do that myself, go relax, please." She sighed before walking to a nearby chair and sitting down on it.I have lots of questions to ask her, but what she seems to need right now is to eat and rest.Carrie on the other hand looked so good and so much healthy. I am happy about it, but it only got me more curious.Does Xavier know who did this?Grandma. I remembered what Daisy said earlier.Grandma? She was with grandma?My mom wasn't alive. Jack's mother? That's her only grandma. Lots of questions flew through my mind.The food was ready soon enough. I served it on a plate before putting it on the dining table, Layla had gone to take her bath.Serving Carrie, I watched her as she dug in. Soon Layla came

    I flattered my eyes open. I was on my bed. How did I get here? I was in the living room last night. I tried catching what happened. But it wouldn't come.I slowly got up from the bed and went into the bathroom, I quickly got took my bath and got ready. Another day of searching. I had to do it.Rushing out of the room to the living room, I stopped when I saw food plates on the dining table, who put those there? I moved closer to it. Opening it, my eyes widened.Who kept these here? I was pretty sure this food cost a lot and it smells so good.You're already lost in it? Did a magical goddess come in here last night? Seriously? What the hell am I thinking?! Now is not the time to think of this like this.I sighed. Maybe all of this was my imagination, or somebody did come in here, didn't I lock the door? My eyes caught a paper behind one of the plates."Eat, you are skinny enough." It says. I recognized this handwriting... It was Xavier's. I consciously looked at myself. I've loosed lots

    "Layla?" I called immediately after I reached home, "Carrie??" My voice was shaky but my reply was dead silence.What should I do? I have to tell the cops immediately. I think I should go to their office, rather than calling them. I quickly rush to take my phone and purse, before darting out of the house.I called a cab to the nearest cops center, throughout the ride, I couldn't think straight.Did that man do this? Oh god. My Carrie, she must be crying so hard now. I wiped the tears that slipped out of my eyes.I rushed out immediately after the cab stopped. Going in I knew this was a lot of processes. I sighed. I made a complaint and they had asked me where they had been last and where they were going to.I gave them all the necessary information and just like that they had asked me to go home and relax. Relax? Seriously? Who would relax in a situation like this?~One Week Later:It has been a week. A week since I last saw them. The people I love so much... They all leave me at the

    It wasn't Layla, she knows the password to the house.I went closer to the door looking through the peephole. My eyes widened.Jack.What was he doing here?! Should I open the door? Should I not open the door?Ugh! Just hear what he wants to say!No! Don't open the door! Two different voices screamed in my head.I slowly opened the door, standing at the edge. "What do you want." I snapped.I hated seeing his handsome face! Not as handsome as Xavier's though.Seriously?! Now is not the time to compare!"Can I come in?""No. Whatever you want to say, say it here." I know I was being rude but I can't help it, if I try being nice, then I'd start crying, I wanted him to think I was angry.I was mad at him though."Ah. Okay." He said. I waited for him to continue. Did he know about Xavier and Paisley?I was sure he knows Paisley."It's about Carrie." I tensed. He wanted to talk about Daisy. We can't talk about her outside here like this."Come in," I muttered stepping away from the door so

    "I'm pregnant and it is Xavier's."What? Why did my heart shatter so much when I heard that? She and Xavier have been together for a long time...Maybe.Maybe Xavier and I were never meant to be. This was all a mistake.But you love him.Then I have to stop. I can't. I can't separate a child from his/her father. I stopped the tears from coming out."Congrats," I said to her and she looked shocked. She was probably expecting more reactions from me."Are you going to leave him? You have to leave him, Lily, I grew up without a father and it wasn't good, it caused me so much emotional pain and I don't want the same for my unborn child." She said in a pleading tone.Pleading? She is such a good actress."Yes."She beamed. "You're such a good person. Thank you." With that, she left.I went back in. "Are you seriously going to believe her? She can be lying for Christ's sake!" Layla asked.Are you okay? The first time she asked me that."Yes, yes. I'm okay. Where is Carrie?" I asked."She was
