Alex loves me.He really loves me.My eyes welled up with tears at his words. I was bursting with joy.Nathan was speechless.He didn't say anything as he walked past me. He stared at me with sorrowful eyes.Alex walked inside, he looked surprised to see me standing there."I'm guessing you heard that?" He chuckled awkwardly."Yes I did." I blushed.Alex walked up to me and engulfed me in a hug."I want to make you happy and I never want to see you stop smiling. I'd do anything for you. These last few months have made me realise how much I care about you and want to be with you. You make me so happy. I love spending time you. You're so sweet and kind. I adore your free spirit and the way you won't settle for any less than you deserve. I love you." When he said those words I completely broke down.To be loved is such a great feeling. It's just as good as giving love."Alex you've been there for me and I can't get over the way you make me feel. You've been there for me through thick and

Nathan's POV"What the fuck is this?" I yelled at Evie."I made Mac and cheese, what's wrong with that?" She asked, confusion written on her face."I work my ass off and this is what you give me? Are you serious?""I don't see anything wrong with this. You're being dramatic.""No I'm not. You just fucking suck. Annette would always make me the best dishes. She would prepare delicious food. She even made dessert. Not Mac and cheese from a fucking box.""Why are you acting like this Nathan?""All you do is sit around and waste my money. You live and feed off me like a fucking leech. You quit your job for heaven's sake.""You told me that it was okay to quit my job. Where's all of this coming from all of a sudden?""You can't seem to do anything right Evie. I like my clothes lavender scented. That's what Annie use to wash them with.""Umm, what are you talking about? I did the laundry and you're upset about a scent. A freaking scent Nathan. At this point you're picking a fucking fight."

"Now that I'm here, you won't need those bodyguards." Damien said."Can you protect her? No you can't." Alex replied. We were sitting at the table having dinner.These two were bickering about whether or not I should keep the bodyguards."Yes I can protect her. I already protected her before.""Um no you didn't. You ran away and left the guy in there.""She'll be fine with me. It wasn't that big of a deal.""Okay you two. That's enough. Let's all just calm down okay?""Fine." Alex sighed."Okay.""I'm fine with the bodyguards being here. It made me feel safe. That's not saying you can't help Damien. The more, the merrier.""I guess you're right.""Good. All that bickering for nothing." I rolled my eyes.They're gonna argue about everything. I just know it.~"Ofcourse you can come Damien." I said and he smiled."I know it's a family gathering. I didn't want to intrude.""You won't be intruding. I told you this already. Stop doing too much. You asked to be here." Alex added."Only beca

Annette"Yes dear, I'm shaken up as well," Candace sighed."I didn't know that Nathan would do something like this. I'm so sorry, Annette.""It's a lot to process," I admitted as I sipped the tea Candace made for me."It is. He's my son, so I can't help but feel hurt and this heaviness in my heart. It's too painful. I can't believe it. I didn't think he'd go that far and do that to you. I'm so sorry, Annie.""It's not your fault, Candace." I reached out and touched her hand."You can make someone, but you can't make their mind. He did this of his own will, and while it's disgusting, you aren't to blame. When I met Nathan, he was the sweetest guy. He was amazing, and he cared about me and everyone around him. He was selfless and amazing. Somewhere along the line, he changed and became someone else. I know this must be hard on you, seeing your son like this.""It is hard, but I can't imagine what it has been like for you. It must have been tragic and scary. I'm so sorry, Annette.""All

WARNING ( EXPLICIT SEXUAL CONTENT ⚠️)Annette's POVAnd so, the bodyguards were back! I felt a lot safer knowing that they were going to be with me when Alex wasn't there. A lot has happened, from being stalked to almost kidnapped and then to finding out I have a sister out there.I was super excited to find her, though. I wondered what she was like. I couldn't wait to meet her."Girl, that's way too much butter," Tiffany told Paige. We were currently at my house baking."No, it's not. Annie, is this too much butter?""No, it's not. It's batter for two cakes, so that should be fine.""See! I was right," Tiffany smirked."Annie, when should we start planning the baby shower?""Probably two weeks from now.""Good! I can't friggin wait! That baby is gonna have the best auntie ever!" Paige rubbed my belly."I'm gonna be the best, Auntie." Tiffany countered"Yeah? We'll see about that."I laughed at their playful banter. I love my friends so much."Guys, I forgot to tell you that I have a
