He checked the time on his wrist watch. "Oh but, we've still got like twenty minutes. Don't you want to go do something fun? I'd like to show you the inside of that cabin--""I actually forgot that there is some paperwork I need to figure out before he arrives and I also need to change into something appropriate for a business meeting. "I had a lovely time but I really have to go right now cause he hates it when people are late." "Oh..." He muttered softly. "Okay then, let me drop you home." "No," I responded sharply. "I mean I can take myself home so just drop me off at my store. I left my car there anyway and I need to grab some things." "Oh uhm... Okay." He smiled, trying to pretend like my sudden change in mood was not visible to him. At the moment, I really didn't care, I just wanted to be at home. "Yeah." I responded with a quick smile. Without waiting up for him, I turned around and started towards the car. As we drove back, it was completely silent except the sound of ou

THIRD POVDamian got into his car, a soft sigh left his mouth. He wondered why his date had suddenly gone cold on him and called everything off. But then his phone started to ring again. He picked it up, hoping it was Blaire, but it was none other than his cousin. He groaned, feeling irritated. He couldn't help but to remember that he had missed out on the chance to kiss Blaire because of Jacob's stupid call coming in at the wrong time. He wondered what he wanted from him that he called him so persistently. "What?" He asked as he picked the call. "Why didn't you answer my call earlier?" Jacob questioned. "I was busy." His tone didn't bother to hide the anger and irritation he was feeling. Jacob couldn't say he didn't notice it, but they weren't close enough to worry about each other and ask why the other's mood was sour. "I wanted to set up another date for our meeting, we didn't get to finish what we were discussing yesterday because my fiancee came in." Jacob explained, going

I stared at him furiously, trying to control my anger. "How could you say something like that to me? What's so wrong with me that you don't want to go there with me? Am I that bad in men's eyes?!" I yelled out. Tears pricked at my eyes and I was suddenly getting emotional for no reason. I wanted to break down in tears. He noticed this and stepped forwards towards me slowly. "That's not what I meant." His voice was gentle as he spoke. "What did you mean then?!" I yelled out. "I meant... I don't want to take you out anymore because I'm worried that you'll have too many eyes on you and a lot of men will be sure to fall in love with you at first sight." I batted my lashes repeatedly. His words caused me to fall dumb all of a sudden, my cheeks heated up and reddened. I cleared my throat, feeling awkward. Blinking my tears away, I smiled like a lovestruck teenager. "I mean... How can you just say that without... How can you..." A flustered chuckle escaped my mouth. He stopped right i

He didn't need a microphone, his voice flowed so naturally with the air. Maybe it was his good looks that drew their attention, or his handsome smile, or blinding aura, but when he spoke, everybody listened. "I don't actually have much to say. Firstly, happy birthday to you, Henry, I hope you celebrate many more on earth cause I really want to know what you will look like when you are old and wrinkled."The audience shared a soft laugh. A smile never left Fabian's face for a second but he suddenly became more stern than he was before. "You have been there for me through a lot of bad things, things that put me in very bad places mentally and physically..." His light brown eyes glowed, shielding a sadness he didn't want the world to see. "But thanks to your consistent disturbance, I could live another day. I won't go into details on that because it's your day and not mine, I just want to let my gratitude known. "I think I speak for everyone here when I say that you're a great friend

My legs suddenly felt so weak, too reluctant to carry my own weight. I stumbled towards the bed and sat down wearily. My breath caught in my throat and tears poured down my face. What made me feel so hurt was the fact that I had actually fallen for Damian. I told myself I didn't have to feel guilty because there was nothing between Fabian and I, and maybe that was why he decided not to confront me on the issue, but after seeing the look in his eyes, I could tell just how exactly he felt. Betrayed, hurt, deceived. I would have felt that way myself if someone had treated me the way I did him. As much as I hated to admit it, not everything Jacob said was a lie. I had actually fallen for his cousin after all. But then a thought crossed my mind, Jacob had seemed so honest when he said he never asked his cousin to approach me. If he didn't set me up, then why did Damian approach me? Could it really be a coincidence? Did he not mean any harm to me? Was that why he didn't want me to fin
