"So how are you keeping up honey?" Lora asked when we sat down at the luxurious sofas in the living room. She kept looking over her shoulders. Derek and Jack were sitting at the other end of the room."Don't worry about them. They look intimidating, but once you get to know them you'll see that they are quite the cinnamon roles!" I joked and the guys send playful glares my way."You know, it's been really weird if I'm being honest, I never really expected to be in a situation like that and now I'm thrown in it. But! Alex has been so sweet and supportive and kind and so understanding through this whole thing and you can't imagine how helpful that has been. I don't know how we used to be before my accident but I can surely tell you that I really care about this man, Lora... I don't know if I'd call this love -it's too early for that- but there is something there... I guess I'll just have to wait and see..." I said honestly and Lora was looking at me dumbfounded.I

Today I was swamped at the office. I kept thinking about Lora and the day just wouldn't go by. I was so out of it.The moment I got home I was greeted by Max, my german shepherd, and then I immediately went to bed. God, today was exhausting...I had been sleeping for a couple of hours when the phone rang. I checked the caller ID and Lora's face popped up on the screen."Angel?" I heard Lora pant. Was she running?"I need help! There- There was someone in my house, and now I'm running, and there's no one around here." She said and I heard her soft sobs. I was out of bed in a heartbeat."I'll be there in a few. Keep moving and go towards the small gas station, ok? The one that's on the way to your house?" I instructed her and grabbed my car keys. There was a long silence, nothing but pants could be heard on the other side of the phone."Angel? Are you there?""Yeah... I'll see you in a bit." I heard her reply as I was getting in my car.

I was sitting on my bed relishing the calm that was in the house.My date with Jordan was a few days ago. He took me to a restaurant, and we actually had a good time. I honestly did not expect him to be so easygoing and fun."And then Xander kicked the door open and left the entire meeting shocked!" he finished his story. We were sharing stories about our friends."No way!" I was laughing so hard. Thank god we were in a more secluded room, or else the entire restaurant would be looking at me funnily."What about you? No fun stories?" he asked and after looking back at mine and Evie's lives, I replied with a story of my own."Well, there was this one time, when Evie and I were really young, and she was over at our place with her parents. We didn't have much fun back then, because our parents -mostly hers- were obsessed with 'proper manners'" I said imitating Helen Harrison as best as I could, "and we neve

After everything that happened, and for the sake of my sanity, Alex actually talked with his dad and they worked some things out. He explained to him that I am his fiance and not just another random girl, and he seems to have accepted that.So, Harry and I got to know each other and turns out he is a really funny and outgoing person. I quite enjoyed my time with him.I can still remember the look on his face the night after their talk.I was sitting on the couch watching TV when the door opened suddenly and in walked Alex with Harry. The one came straight at me kissing my forehead and after a quick and almost inaudible "See you in a bit", I was left alone in the room with Harry.He was standing in the corner of the room looking everywhere but me."I won't bite you if you walk closer." I said breaking the silence."It's not that. After the last time I saw you, I feel so embarrassed. I shouldn

I was walking down a dark alley and then suddenly a shadow appeared out of nowhere. He lunged at me but I kicked him and started running. I ran and I ran but there was never an end to this hell. Another figure appeared and tried to do the same. I continued running and I looked behind me for a brief moment. Big mistake... The two figures approached me rapidly when I fell on something or actually someone hard. I looked up and I screamed at the top of my lungs. This can't be happening to me. The man held me strongly in his arms. "Leon, let me go! Please..." I said but my voice broke and it came out more like a whisper. "Not a chance sweetheart. You killed me! Now it's my turn!" he growled through his teeth. I looked at him. At the man I once loved... he had changed so much. He had a huge scar on his left cheek and instead of his kind and warming smile he had an evil grin plastered on his face.

After George talked with the doctor and filled in the paperwork, we were finally able to leave the hospital. Evie had fallen asleep in my arms while we were driving back to my penthouse. George decided it would be best if we started living together so that her memory would -and I quote- 'come back' sooner. I really feel bad but what's done is done and there's nothing I can do about it... I look down at her. She is so calm, so oblivious of everything that's happening around her... When we arrived at the building, she was still sleeping so I just picked her up bridal style, and walked inside. The elevator ride was silent but then I felt Evie moving. She didn't wake up though. She was probably dreaming. She moved again and that's when she started mumbling things in her slumber. She was having a nightmare. "Evie, it's just a dream," I whispered in her ear but she wouldn't listen to me. She started moving more intensely and she was now scr
