That Summer I met Him 20
Chapter TwentyCAIDENI arrived at three in the morning. I pass the key to the valet and made my way to the elevator. I can feel my eyes slowly shutting and I am glad when I arrived at my floor. I opened the door and was surprised because there's a wet shoe beside it. "Alex?" Why is it that there's no light here? That girl, she's always irresponsible. She even left the dishes and her shoes at the living room. I made my way to my room and almost slipped "God, Alex! What have you done here? The floor is wet and my whole house was dirty!" I headed towards our room and found it clean. Well, at least not our room.I headed down to the spare room and found her sleeping on the couch. Piles of brushes were scattered, canvases destroyed and different color of paints splattered the floor.I was so angry and worried at the sight of it. First is that, it's very unlikely for her to act this way. Her canvases are treasure for her. She doesn't even want to show me what it was and another things is

I ordered a blueberry cheesecake and their special vanilla milkshake.I told Elaine to order the same and so she did. We were waiting for our order when she asked “Are you alright?”“I’m perfectly fine.” I scratch the back of my head and sigh."Don't trick me dear," She felt my head and shook his head. “Your generation doesn’t really pay much attention to your health, am I right?” She removes her coat and gave it to me."Well, it's uh, it's-""This is all about Caiden, right?" I nodded "Can you please tell me what happened? How did you both end up in this mess? I thought the both of you are alright. Please, answer me, don’t try to avoig me." she insisted when I didn't look at herAnd so I did. I told her all about it. The same conversation we had.

Chapter Twenty-TwoALEXI ran into the kitchen and pulled out e ingredients I needed. I cracked the egg, put it in the mixing bowl and add some spices. I poured it in the pan and grabbed the bacon.The bacon was now coated with egg and all I need to do is grate some cheese and cook the pancake. I finished the omelet by adding the grated cheese unto it.Tada, I've got a beach omelet. It's called like that for it's a combination of bacon and cheese with the egg as it's coat.I put it in a plate and grabbed the pancakes. I poured some maple syrup and scoop a butter to put on top. I was about to bring it in the table when I notice his presence."Alex," He said in a hushed tone "I'm sorry for what I did yesterday. I hope you have already forgiven me." I looked at him as he bit his lip."No, I should be the one to say that" I look at the pancake in my hand and smiled "C'mon we'll have this whole day, I mean the whole week for ourselves so let's get going" I smiled at him and sat on the table

Chapter Twenty-ThreeALEXMy hand still hurts because of the need to scratch off the dishes last night. I tried to reach out for the bedside table but my hand slipped off and I landed in the cold floor.I picked myself up and look at his side. He was nowhere in sight. Maybe he chose to sleep on the other room. I glanced at the clock and realized that it's just 5:30 in the morning. My body wanted to go back to sleep but I really wanted to see the sun rise until it was high up in the clouds and maybe I can have a tour around. What had happen yesterday when we go biking is great and I wanted to feel the air on my face again.I just can't get over it.I took a warm bath and smiled as the bubbles flew around me. I emptied the tub and wrapped the towel around my petite body. I walked in my closet and picked a cute blue summer dress. I matched it up with my blue converse and snatched his baseball cap which is lying on the floor.I slung my bag on my shoulder and sneaked out of my room, caref

Chapter Twenty FourALEX✔ Cook dinner.✔ Prepare desserts.✔Clean the rooms.✔Keep Gucci out.✔ Demand Caiden to do the dishes.How about him scrubbing the floor? Hmm..,yep he's almost done."Alex, c'mon sweet cheeks my hand hurts." He groaned while stretching his arms in front of him. "It's hard to scrub this stuff. Why don't we hire a maid to do this?""No, you'll be the one to do that. Now, finish it off before your parents arrive here and laugh at you." I skipped my way through the stairs, giggling.It's just entertaining watching the devil himself doing the dishes or scrubbing the floor. He have done the dishes earlier by force. He wasn't supposed to do that but I pretended that I've got something to do. When he has finished doing the dishes, he was too angry that I imagine steam coming out of his nose and ears.Now, where am I?I pulled the midnight blue cocktail dress and my black flats. I combed my hair and braid it on the side. I applied some eyeliner and added some masca

•••Chapter Twenty-FiveALEX"Oh! The gown fits you well. I felt like crying" The dressmaker hugged me. I smiled down at her and she helped put it back on the box. “You are just so beautiful.’I help Kathy put her dress on which is a cocktail one while Keith had a long dress that looks like mine. It was a combination of blue and white. After that we went on a salon and have ourselves pampered. I even have a free massage at the spa. Kathy was giggling and laughing like a little school girl when she tried to dip her feet on the foot spa."Hey Kathy, are the lilies and roses ready?""Yup," she smiled up at me while trying to suppress her giggle."Okay. Next stop would be the cake."•••CAIDEN"To Cade," Nate raised his shot and look at me, "For he finally settled down from his player ways and was now completely whipped over Alex" Jacob laughed while I downed my own shot."Hey, don't drink too much dude. Your wedding is tomorrow. You wouldn't want a hangover don't you?" Andre warned me bu

Chapter Twenty-SixALEX"Cade?" I look at his face again and notice that he was looking down. He looks as handsome as ever with that five o'clock shadow of the setting sun, but he seems so distraught."What are you doing here? Aren't we allowed to see each other before the wedding? They say it is bad luck." I checked his face and noticed that he was now looking at me."Well, It's not like I am Caiden" He smiled while making his way nearer me"What? What are you saying Cade?" I look down at my finger and back at him. "Does it mean that your memories are back and you are the Dwayne I'm talking about?"He look at me and shook his head. "No Alex. I am the real Dwayne and the Cade you are talking about is still not here and was probably sleeping until now" He gave me an evil smirk while he snatch me off my chair and lead me out."Stop kidding Cade! It's not funny anymore." He continued to drag me out but I insisted to stay."I'm not kidding. You know that I do not know how to do that," His

Chapter Twenty- SevenALEXI look at my surroundings. I was on a bed with a handcuff on my wrist. The sun was shining behind the bamboo curtain. The weather is hot and I smell like dirt and sweat mixed together...eewI stood up and tried to walk around but then that action made the bed yank me back. Oh shit...now I’m a prisoner in the middle of Hawaii.Hawaii?Am I really in Hawaii?I look at my handcuff and on the clock beside me. 8 am. I snatch off the hair pin on my hair and used it to unclasp the handcuff on my wrist and ankle.Ha, now I'm free.I went towards the balcony and watch the wave splash on the sand. I look at the side and found a way out. I raised my foot and manage to go out of the balcony. One more foot, one more...I jump out of it and landed on the sand with a soft thud. I'm finally going back home. I gathered the skirt of my dress and started to run but I was yanked off into someone's arms. I look up to see Caiden looking down at me with an angry expression. Why is
