It is finally Monday, my appointment at the doctors office is in 30 minutes. Lucas had called and asked the time early this morning, he wasn't even in L.A why was he asking.
I arrived at the doctors office 10 minutes before my appointment, and I was surprised to see Lucas was already waiting for me in the waiting room.He walks to me immediately he sees me, standing few feet's apart. It took every will I had not to jump into his arms and hug him."You're here?" I say suddenly feeling more relaxed."Yeah I'm here. I can leave if you want me to?" He says."No no it's fine, I'm glad you're here." I say and we sit down and wait for them to call us.They call us into the examination room, the door tell us about my options for pregnancy termination and my options if I want to keep the baby. She leaves us alone after she finishes examining me."So what do you think? Should I keep it?" I ask Lucas."VanessaEverything was going on perfectly, my mom and Ari helped me move officially into the Alvarado manor two weeks ago.And I have to say I love it here, the full staff just for needs, Lucas has been amazing making sure I'm comfortable and I have everything I need. His dad has also been amazing, coming to my side of the wing to make sure I'm alright every day.Lucas traveled back to London yesterday night to go over some work, he made sure I was okay and perfect before he left.My dad and mom have also been amazing, today is my uncle's Election Day so we're having a party at my uncles campaign office the results were announced earlier and he had won.So the party was on a full swing, everyone partying and rejoicing. After the party Ari drove me home to the Alvarado manor she was keeping me company since Lucas wasn't around.We had finished binge watching the office on Netf
2 years later....Lucas's POV"Honey get back in bed," Elaine called out from my bed room."I'll be right there, go back to sleep. We have an early flight tomorrow." I say out loud to her making sure she can hear me from down the hall."Yeah, more reason for you to get back to bed." She says calling out to me.She was right I really needed to get back to bed, haven't been sleeping much lately.Elaine and I met a year back in Amsterdam, We were both there for an Oil and Energy development submit and we have been together since. The only girlfriend I have had in years.Well there was Vanessa, she was different and everything was different with her. I had wanted everything with her, I had fallen for her and want
Vanessa's POV"Are you sure you're good?" Ari asked for the millionth time as entered the Alvarado manor."Ari like I said when you asked the last time and the time before, I am fine." I said."Okay well just making sure," Ari says rolling her eyes dramatically.I wasn't really fine, I was seeing Lucas after 2 years and I was excited, nervous and at the same time longing to see him.And then we entered inside.Lucas turned, seeing me standing in the doorway. I was astonished to see relief in his eyes. Had he been wishing I would come?We stared at each other seconds passing till an elegant woman came across the room and wrapped her arm around Lucas's. I felt like a dagger pierced into my heart.Kathy had mentioned he was seeing someone but I thought it was just Lucas being Lucas. Because Lucas didn't do girlfriends and ofcourse
After my conversation with Lucas I didn't want to be alone so I drove to Ari's place or I will just think and think."Ari?" I called her name after using my key to enter into her house."I'm up here," she called from upstairs.I walk up to find her with Kathy and Elaine in her bedroom."Hey." I said looking between them, feeling betrayed they were hanging out with Lucas's girlfriend and I wasn't invited."Hey." Elaine says with a smile."Vee, let's go downstairs I want to show you something." Kathy says jumping up when she sees me."Yeah we'll be right back Elaine," Ari adds holding my hand and taking me downstairs."Okay so, we're sorry about Elaine. We know you don't want to hang out with your exes new girlfriend." Kathy says."Yeah but she doesn't have any friends in L.A so I kind of invited her to go shopping with us today." Ari says."And we didn't say anything to you because we didn'
"Vanessa you have to come for the next Sunday dinner, honestly can't be alone with dad and mom." My brother Justin says."Sorry but no, I'm staying clear of them for now. Why isn't Wes going?" I ask."He's avoiding dad too, he said something about going to his mom's. And why are you staying clear of them anyway." Justin adds asking me."They keep pressuring me to date Zack Milton." I say frustrated."Why and how did we end up with parents that want to control every aspect of our life's." Justin says."Tell me about it, honestly don't go to Sunday dinner if you don't want to." I say."I'm doing this new thing called doing only things that make me happy." I add."I think I'll take your advice on that." Justin says."Why are you getting dressed, you have a date?" He asks as he notices I have finished my makeup and I'm bringing out outfits."Yeah." I say."With who?" He asks."Justin, I'm
I had an early emergency meeting with at work today so I couldn't meet Lucas at home like I wanted to.So I left work early and headed to his office, he didn't know I was coming and I figured why not just surprised him.I have never actually been to the Alvarado tower, so today was my first time.Thank God I met Eric at the lobby and he took me upstairs to Lucas's floor then introduced me to another man who thentook me down the hall to Lucas's office where his secretary then instructed me to go in.I entered inside and leaned against the frame watching him talk on the phone.His secretary may have instructed me to go on in, but I preferred to have an invitation from the man himself.He looked up at me immediately, a sly smile forming on his lips as he continued his phone conversation.Warmth spread within me. It was a nice thing to feel wanted.He was quiet for a moment, obviously listening, but all the whi
I haven't seen Lucas since yesterday in his office, he said he would see me later but he never called or came over and I didn't call back.Kathy is also in town we're having brunch with her and Ari. And she's also pregnant too she told Ari and I in the group chat yesterday night and asked us to brunch to celebrate."Congratulations," I say excitedly hugging her immediately I see her."Thank you" she says smiling."When did you find out?" Ari asks after the waitress takes our orders."Weeks ago when I was here for daddy's birthday but I wasn't sure so when I went back to New York I went to see the doctor." Kathy says explaining."That was weeks ago and you didn't tell us," I say scolding her."We didn't tell anyone, the only people that know are Lucas and my dad and ofcourse Ethan told his parents and Ian."Kathy says explaining."Well we're excited, how far along are you anyway?" I ask."I'll be four months tomorr
Vanessa's POVLucas looked plain irritated, as if she had betrayed him, when he saw her walk in with Shun.His fingers splayed around her waist and rested on the curve of her tummy. She fought back a shudder when she imagined his hand coasting just a few inches downward."You're very lucky," Shun said to Lucas."She's gorgeous" he added looking at me."Absolutely." Lucas said as his head lowered. Her breath hitched as his lips grazed her lobe, and his nose nuzzled her ear. Her nipples grew hard and tingly. She prayed her padded bra hid the evidence of her body's betrayal.Shun watched the gesture with barely hidden amusement."It seems my Father thinks you are the perfect man to work with considering clean energy. Perhaps we can set up a meeting and discuss further.""Thank you. My
