I was finally able to take her home and was just happy that I had her here with me, safe and sound. We'd both fought her parents to get her here, but in the end they'd been very understanding, which made it easier on all of us.My parents fussed for a while when we got there of course. Mom had had Marisa cook some of Sian's favorites, which she barely picked at and that only because I made her. I guess the greasy burger on an empty stomach might not have been such a great idea, but it's what she'd wanted.I'm thinking after what she's been through, she can have anything she wants, at least for the next little while."Mom, dad, I'm taking me baby upstairs to take care of her, we'll see you guys in the morning. Mom you took care of that thing for me right?""Of course son, and if you two need anything before morning don't hesitate. Sian it really is great to have you back with us where you belong."They both hugged her before I snatched her away and headed upstairs. "Alone at la

How could everything be going so wrong? I stormed around my room destroying everything in my path as I felt the first stirrings of fear.After my conversation with Jace I wasn't sure if he suspected or not, but how could I chance it?He'd sounded pretty amiable there at the end, so maybe I've bought myself some time, but how long? No, it wasn't in me to sit and wait for a noose to be tied around my neck.I knew I shouldn't have trusted that idiot with this. Grabbing my phone I called him. "Meet me down at the pier, fifteen minutes."I didn't wait for an answer just left the house and headed out in my car. I didn't want him coming here just in case someone was watching the house."And just who the hell would be watching the house Mandy? Don't go getting paranoid already, that's the surest way to fuck things up even more than they already were."If that idiot Kelly hadn't called me when she did I would never have known. I wonder how much the Saunders had paid to keep it so hush-hus

Oh hell, what is she doing here? I'm not sure if I should hang around to find out, or get the hell out of here. My gut burned with the implications, but one wrong move now could prove disastrous if I were wrong.How had my life come to this? How had I fucked things up so royally? My feet felt leaden as I moved through the quiet stillness of the night. I heard a rustling sound coming from my left somewhere and hurried my steps.Hindsight is a son of a bitch; too little too late. I thought I could control the situation though, I mean she was just a kid after all. I'm a grown man, a man who suffered a great loss and went through a rough patch true, but I've always been sensible.I've never given in to the wiles of Hollywood, not until now anyway. The debauchery that was kept well hidden: the bed hopping and orgies that would make Caligula's look like a garden-variety tea party. I'd kept myself well above it all. But then something happened, something that I had no control over. I ne

"I can't believe you lost yours without me." Belle pouted at me and looked affronted."Uh, I didn't know we were doing that." Leave it to her to get my mind off of what troubles me."You know what I mean, I thought we would do it like at the same time, but it looks like you're way ahead of me." She was fighting to hide her stupid grin like she's been doing for the past hour or so.I'd told her about my little escapade with Shane the day before because hey, she's my best friend and we're supposed to share. And also because, after the fact, I'm just a tad bit scared about what's going to happen to the rest of my life.A little melodramatic no doubt, but that's how my mind works. I think I consumed self-doubt in my mother's milk. After we'd done the deed and gone to the hospital to see Sian, he'd taken me home, or followed me home was more accurate.It had only taken that long for the glow to fade and worry to set in. It felt as though I'd achieved the ultimate goal and now there w

"Mom is that you, where did you go?" I snuck my head out my door as I heard her going by."I should be asking you that young lady, your dad and I were worried sick about you."I'm sure he was. I turned away so that she wouldn't see the look of bitter distaste that crossed my face at the mention of him.He'd made such a mess that I wasn't sure if I'd ever be able to forgive him. After tonight though, things should go back to normal. I hope that after this my dad would've learned his lesson.I'll just keep my eyes on him from now on and make sure he didn't do this again. "I'm going to bed now mom." I turned into my room to escape."Wait, you didn't tell me where you went.""Oh, nowhere in particular, I just took a little ride over to Sian's to see how she's doing."I kept my face turned away still so she couldn't read my expression just in case she was feeling focused today."Oh how is she dear, better I hope?""Yes mom thanks, she's doing much better.""You know I suddenly fee
