The Only Exception Epilogue
Damon Ashton I woke up, took a bath, got ready and changed into my a loose gray tank top paired with my white board shorts along with my beach shades and black leather bracelets. I was late for breakfast as usual so I headed outside. "Hey Dy, did you see where Olivia is?" I asked Dylan .He was with Summer on their way to swim at the beach, I guess, he answered, "She's changing, she's going to try surfing.""You should teach her, you're much better than I am at surfing." Summer added."Are you guys doing what I think you're doing?" I raised an eyebrow. Summer looked away and said, "No. What are you thinking?""You're a horrible liar, Summer." I snickered, "Stop setting us up. It won't happen.""Setting you with Olivia? Never! She's too good for you, brother, keep dreaming." Dylan scoffed."Ah, of course, my number hater. I guess it's only Summer who's setting me up then." I said, "Well, I'm off. I'll go see Olivia. See you."Then Olivia went out, wearing her black rash guard along wi
The Only Exception Chapter 30: "In My Dreams"
Olivia Summers How nice it is to have a family, someone you can come home to. The laughters, smiles on their faces seems warm. I finally saw Damon laugh for real without holding or hiding anything, I saw Dylan happy with Summer and with that peace of mind shows in his face.Truth be told, it made me a little envious and I felt a sharp sting in my heart. But also, it struck me. I finally made up my mind.After a few minutes, we cleaned the table where we ate and Summer and Dylan took care of the dishes. I changed into my pajamas and went outside to stroll for a while, suddenly Damon appeared in front of me, "Miss me?""Yeah, I was about to but if we weren't together just 5mins ago" I mocked"Aw, I'm touched. You just admitted you missed me.""I speak fluent sarcasm so if your tiny brain can't seem to grasp that," I continued, "I didn't miss you so please go away and let me have my peace for five minutes.""Never, part of the routine, anyways, where are you going?""At the convenience
The Only Exception Chapter 29: "If This Is Love"
Damon Ashton "I think it's better if we leave them alone." I told Summer and she simply smiled, "You're right."We both left and sat at the hammock near the beach house, Summer broke our silence and asked awkwardly, "So... how are you?" "Not so well.""Right. Sorry that was a dumb question." She averted her gaze towards me, "I didn't love him because he's better than you nor because he's perfect in everyone's eyes, I just love him, that's that. Sorry for leaving you and hurting you like everyone did.""I'm sorry for saying that to you. I didn't mean to make you feel gulty." I looked at her once again, with those simply and messy hair, wearing a sleeveless flowy dress, "I know but I just didn't accepted it." I chuckled softly, "Olivia told me that it's all about finding someone worth the pain, I'm okay now and I want her to be too.""Olivia Summers seems like a nice girl.""Maybe it's a given to those who have Summer in their names." "Definitely." Summer laughed. "I hope you find pe
The Only Exception Chapter 28: "Happier"
Olivia Summers I watched there as Damon took care of his dad and tucked him in with a warm blanket, he kissed him in the forehead, "Goodnight dad." I never saw that gentle and warm side of him. It feels more like, it wasn't that I didn't see it, it was just that he purposely hid it from the world. But at the same it, it feels exactly like Damon. I've always seen it actually. That behind all that bravado, he's a good person. It was just that he was trying so hard not to be. Or maybe, I refused to see it. I refused to see any reason to like him because he... reminded me of myself. It was like looking into his eyes, I see myself. Abadoned and incomplete. I didn't want to see it because looking at him made me want to confront my demons and fears and I wasn't ready to do so. But then again, I don't think I'll ever be ready. It wasn't really a matter of getting ready, it was a matter of whether I would be braver this time to actually take the first step into facing it? While I was pre
The Only Exception Chapter 27: "Hard Times"
Damon AshtonAfter a while, we both got ready for bed, I tucked myself in and bid goodnight to Olivia, "See you in my dream, Olivia.""If I see you in mine, that would be a nightmare!" Olivia mocked, "Now, let me sleep in peace and don't you dare visit my dreams because I swear to god, I will murder you in your sleep.""Geez, that's too crazy, Olivia, even for you.""What does that mean?" She raised an eyebrow and hits me with a pillow, "How annoying!""I look like Dylan a lot, so honestly why him?" Why is it always him? Can't it be me for once in my life? I just sounded like I'm wallowing in self-pity. I sounded a lot like dad. I will never be him. I swore it. Never."I've had enough with those casanovas playing feelings with others." Olivia continued, "Dylan, however, is the opposite, he's perfect and he's a nice guy, really nice.""Even if he breaks your heart?""Even if he breaks my heart." Olivia said, "Dylan's just that kind of person. He's effortlessly... kind.""I could be nic
The Only Exception Chapter 26: "From Here to Mars"
Olivia Summers With that stupid Kyle out of the way, so now what? How do I face Damon, after forcing a kiss on him all of a sudden? God, this will be the death of me! I mean, I've done a lot of crazy and unusual things. I've been rejected in public. A lot. But nothing ever comes close to this kind of embarrassment! What was I supposed to do? How am I supposed to react? What do I say?My mind is racing with thoughts. How can he stay calm in this situation? I mean, I haven't looked around to see because I'm too embarrassed but I can only imagine that smug look on his face! I can't believe I'm blushing over this!Get over it, Olivia, you're not some highschool kid anymore.I was embarrassed but I managed to face him without looking at his face, I was all red from embarrassment, I apologized, "Sorry, that was- I wasn't expecting that either, sorry, I was careless.""You think I'll accept that apology?" Damon asked with that annoying smirk on his face, "You kissed me, Olivia.""I'm sorry
The Only Exception Chapter 25: "How to be a heartbreaker pt.2"
Damon AshtonI don't know why but the way she answered that was quite... heartbreaking. There was no hesitation, Olivia was sure she'd never fall in love with someone like me. A casanova.But still, a part of me was relieved to actually hear her say that. I must be going crazy. Why am I so indecisive lately? Damn it."Hey, are you okay?" Olivia asked, "You look like you're having an existential crisis.""Ha ha. Funny." I snickered, "Says the hopeless romantic who's about to become a heartbreaker.""For your information, I am still against the idea of breaking someone's heart for the fun of it but Kyle is a jerk who totally deserves it.""Hypocrite.""This was your idea." Olivia raised his eyebrows, "Ah, I see, you're making me question it so I'd back down. Is this a test?"It wasn't but I lied. "Congratulations, you passed.""You better not let your guard down because I will make you fall for me.""That's my line."Olivia chuckled, "It is but it's a lot better when I use it. Well, is
The Only Exception Chapter 24: "How to be a heartbreaker pt.1"
Damon AshtonWith my loose gray shirt and black sweat shorts, hair slicked back showing that clean shaved line and my go-to black kaishi run, I went to room B50. This is how I run away from things like... feelings.Unnecessary feelings.Complicated feelings."What took you so long?" She asked in a flirty manner as she touches her lips, "Your other girlfriends?""Sorry." I put my hands around her waist and kissed her, "Still mad?"She grabbed my shirt and pulled me inside her room. "I'm still debating about it."I smirked.Rule number one: you gotta have fun but when you're done, you gotta be the first to run. So, after things happen, a casual flirting goes a long way. I left her along with a note, 'Thanks for having me over.'Rule number two: just don't get attache
The Only Exception Chapter 23: "Try"
Olivia SummersI was caught off guard when Damon hugged me but for some reason, I didn't try to move away from him like I usually do. The look in his eyes earlier... seemed so lonely.A feeling I was too familiar.Suddenly, a pretty lady with her simple white shirt and denim shorts came up to us saying, "You two lovebirds seem to be lost.""Ah yes, we are." Damon was surprised, he immediately lets go of me. I was dumbfounded too but I managed to reply, "I mean, yes, we're lost but no, we're not a couple.""yet." Damon smirked as he looked at me devilishly.And there he goes again. Being the mischevious little devil with his lines and tricks to make any naive girl fall for him. How annoying. I rolled my eyes at him and said, "Never.""Never say never." Damon nudged, "You might end up eating your words, darling.""If you say so."
