In Three Years のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

***the previous chapter is the last chapter in which Amory’s POV will appear. We have now arrived at the point of the original book ‘Damaged’ on the chapter titled ‘Three Years Later’ if you wish to read both books as they occur in-sync with each other***Amory is behind the bar dressed in a black halter top with black booty shorts and silver stilettos, which is typical for her, and I see her kick into high gear when Sy starts waving to get someone’s attention. We all know that this is do-or-die time! But a couple of drunk dumb fucks smashed to the ground behind me, breaking glasses and spilling liquor everywhere. “Charge this for a case of new glasses”, I heard Amory tell Mel. When I turned back around to the bar, she was mid-air in Bo’s grip, being lifted up onto the top of the bar. She stomps her stiletto onto the countertop before kicking the broken glass to the ground and yelling, “hey break it up asshats”! Her voice is so powerful that everyone freezes and their gazes all snap

I wake up under the weight of Amory’s stare, with her two-year-old daughter asleep on my chest still… You know what? Fuck that! Our two-year-old… We’ve just spent the last two and a half years raising her together! “Mi Amor, what’s wrong, Amory?” (my love) I say when I see the look of determination on her face. “I’m tired of hiding, this was never me”, she says as she points to her now black hair. “I did this to hide the fact that Gabby’s hair color was from her father and not me. I need to be me again”! I know this is the truth, we had this conversation over a year ago when she started dying her hair black. It was always pink prior to that, and I didn’t know until then that she was actually blonde naturally, like platinum blonde. I wrapped my arms around Stephany, who still lay asleep on my chest, cradling her so I could sit up. “Okay, what’s your next move”? “I get my look back and then I get comfortable being on my bike again”, she tells me. I’m all for the pi

Amory sleeps the morning away, and I’m not too sure if it’s because she spent all night tossing and turning or if she is just trying to avoid facing us. Regardless, we all leave her be! When we get into the club, she heads right to work at the bar and it’s as if things have gone back to normal. Her husband is a no-show! I’m trying to coax her out onto the dance floor, but this woman keeps trying to grab up on me. At one point, I catch Amory watching my interaction with the woman, and when I smirk at Amory, she rolls her eyes at me and diverts her attention elsewhere. It was the last time I managed to make eye contact with her, and it left me feeling stupid for the rest of the night. Amory should know she’s the only woman alive that has my attention! It was late on Tuesday evening, and Amory still hadn’t come down from her apartment, so I went up after her. “Mi Amor, everyone is looking for you”, (my love) I called out to her, thinking I probably should have checked th

I woke up to the smell of Amory’s pancakes. She used to make them in the morning when we’d spend holidays at my mother’s. They’re sooo good! She’s at the stove in the kitchen with her bare back exposed in a skimpy pink dress that wraps loosely around her curvy but petite figure. I get the coffee going since she doesn’t drink it, her coffee pot is literally there for me! I then wrap my arms around her and say, “you look beautiful this morning, mi Amor”, (my love) and kiss her cheek. She giggles and says, “funny, I feel like shit! I have so much on my mind, and I think it’s time I get some stuff off my chest”! “Okay, let's hear it”, I tell her as I step back, giving her space. “Spin needs to hear it too”, she says! Well, that doesn’t sound good. I turned my attention back to the coffee! Stephany stumbles in and I fix her a plate at the table, then prep her some apple juice that Amory insists has to be watered down! I also fill a kiddie bowl with sliced st

When I wake, I head to the kitchen for my caffeine fix when I hear what sounds like a herd of elephants jumping down the stairs. Spencer suddenly yells, “come on Loyalty, where’s the cheerleader in you”? I pop my head out of the kitchen door way in time to see Spencer jump off the last few steps of the staircase. Amory screams, “wait until I get you, Spin”! Suddenly, her little body appeared from over the railing, landing right onto the back of him. He grabs a hold of her bare thighs and says, “wanna piggy back ride baby girl? I’m down with that”. He runs right by all of us toward the back door with Amory clinging to him. The girls all start laughing. Her relationship with this man really isn’t healthy! “Don’t you dare, Spin”, Amory wails before you hear the splash of pool water as Spencer jumps in with her still on his back. They come up a distance away from each other, so she obviously let him go on impact unlike what she does with me. She splashes the water a
