The sun was already going down and I've given Damien many kisses than I can count. We didn't only golf but barbecued. Rose came over and helped us with steaks. We found a shady spot with a wooden table and trunks like stools round the table. It looked man-made though but it was pretty.
"Thanks for the steaks, Rose"
Rose smiled at me and nodded before going back to the grill. Everyone was much too hungry after the games to even talk. Chloe of all people was stuffing her face with potatoes and steak at the same time.
"We should do this every weekday Dammy" Elle said. I cringed at the name she called him because once upon a time, Bethany had called him that and it annoyed the hell out of me. Still annoys me.
"Are you planing to stay here much longer?" Damien frowned and I hit his leg under the table. He stared at me and I mouthed be nice. He rolled his eyes at me and dug his fork into his steak.
Damien POV"Well then since you have no reason for her to leave, she's going to stay" Jay said and she was walking toward the door. This discussion is not over. She doesn't even have a clue what Elle did. She just met her and she's already stuck to her like glue. I knew this was a bad idea even allowing Elle stay a second close to Jay."I have a reason and she's leaving" I said before she could walk out on me."Well then tell me what it is. What's your problem?" She asked and I suddenly felt anger. I have a problem? The fuck she just didn't say that to me."I don't have a problem and if you keep talking back at me like that, we're going to have a problem. So stop acting like a nosey bitch and mind your goddamn business, goddamit!" I yelled.I'm sure by now the veins in my neck were at full alert but nothing topped the pain, confusion and fear I saw on Jay's face.
Damien POV"Mrs Roberto I'm so sorry. We were talking and then she just fainted" I explained for the tenth time. Jay's mom tapped my shoulder gently. Immediately she got the call that Jay was hospitalised, she took the first flight from London right here. It's a shame Mr Roberto couldn't make it. He had business in Ireland."These things happen dear. It's marriage afterall. "She smiled up at me but I was just not happy with myself. I found myself pacing the room slowly and waiting for Jay to wake up. It's the second day and she's not even blinked."The things I said to her were so mean. I didn't mean them but...I just....I hate myself right now" I strolled to the edge of Jay's bed and gripped the iron.In some few seconds, Mrs Roberto was standing by my side. Her hands entangled with mine. Her palm cupped my cheek to face her."Just tell her your sorry when she wakes up. A
"Even though Damien and I had different moms, we loved the same woman. The woman who took care of me like I was her own child after I was abandoned by my own" Elle said with a smile. We were seating in the love seat away from everyone else.My mom, Damien, Chloe, Charles, Raymond and even Joseph, were in the other room watching movies and talking about fun stuffs. I and Elle could still see them from here and I smiled when Chloe pat Damien on the shoulder for something he said."Damien's mom sounds like a brave woman" I muttered to Elle with an unmistakable smile on my face."Yeah she was. Taking up her husband's stray daughter was a tough one but she did it. She was the only real mom I ever knew and had""I'm sure she loved you as much as
I've had enough Paparazi for a day in my life. This morning when I arrived at my pet store, strictly guarded by a man Damien assigned. I think his name is Jim. There were a few cars parked outside my building. I had thought we had many buyers today only to be faced with a blinding flashing camera in my face. The paps swarmed me like bees and luckily for me, Jim came to my rescue."What are they on about anyway? " Tanya asked me. She was rocking her baby in her arms. She put to bed a while ago but I was too busy to even notice or know. She had sent me an email but I haven't gone through my emails in decades.Too engulfed in my own problems to care about other people's problems."Someone leaked a news out to the blog" Elle muttered. I was happy they were around me. After the assault of the Paps in front of my building, I was taken home. Tan followed me."What?" I asked, staring at Elle. She was going through her
Engulfed in Damien's arms, I felt at ease. I felt peaceful with myself. I thought I'd arrive at his company to see him being dragged out of his office in cuffs. Although I know something like that would never happen with the kind of connection Damien has, but when I left the house, I just couldn't stop panicking."Why are you here? Are you alright, do you need to go to the hospital?" Damien asked."I saw the news"I raised my head from his shoulders so I could look him in the eyes. They were at ease and in control but deep down I know he's trying to hide his unsettled mind."You shouldn't have just sprinted up like that. What if you cramped. Did you drive?...Please tell me you didn't drive yourself. .." My palms connected with his cheeks softly, pulling his face to mine"I'm fine. And I brought Jimmy with me"He sighed in relief. The door to his
Stay away from society for the time being. That's what Damien's publicist said. Anyone who Damien is seen with might just enter the news. A few days ago, they covered up some headlines that Alberto was in on it. It was finally concluded, seeing the press knows that Alberto has been Damien's godfather. But the news didn't last long on the net because it was taken down. The same thing would have been easily done for Damien. But we all know who's behind this. Bethany. The more Damien tries to take the news off, informations of shit just keeps leaking out to the media.Rose arranged the last of my bags by my bedside." Anything else?"Since Damien's publicist said he should quit the outside word for now, he took it upon himself to have a good time while he's at it. A vacation to our Lake house just outside the sketch of Florida. I'm glad he can use this as an excuse to take a break from work now. He
Damien placed a bowl of caramel chocolate in front of me, his eyes widening with a smile when he saw just how captivated I was by it. "I thought you'll reject it, or worst, throw it away" He chuckled."Why would I do that?"He shrugged. "Dunno. Lately, you've been eating weird things and leaving all the good stuffs for me""That's because I'meight months pregnant. And whose fault is that?" I ask, feeling my body playing all kinds of weird jokes on me. Damien did not say a word as he returned to the cabinet, got out a fruit blender and set it on the counter."I'm going to make you a health smoothie right now" He says proudly."You can't cook. Don't make a mess in here." I said with a sly smile. His eyes twinkled with laughter."It's just blending. I'm definitely not lighting up the stove"The last time Damien made something was wh
The view was pretty and well, breathtaking but not even the food on the table, or the wine in the bucket which I know I can't drink, or the rose petals on the floor that lead to the bed was the main reason for the tears rolling down my cheek. It was all the man standing behind me. The fact that he could actually pull something like this off, during this kind of time where the media is on him and the press won't rest.He's not distancing himself. He's not pulling away or being frantic. He looks at peace even though I know he's not. I turn around, throwing my arms around Damien's neck, sending kisses all over his face. He's chuckling at my outburst but I couldn't feel anymore better than now."Thank you...oh God! This is so pretty" I whine."I'm glad you love it" his nose brushed against mine, softly, sparking up my hormones. I won't really say it's been a while since we made love but Damien being a gentleman is always being careful w
