Raquel’s POV

"What happened between us should have not happen." He started. "It was inappropriate and I should have not taken advantage of you."

"I get it. You don't have to feel sorry about it. I wanted it. If you are feeling guilty about it, you don't have to." I replied honestly. "If you regret it, I understand. Just stop trying to ruin it for me because for me it was special. I felt special and I loved every single minute of it."

"I said it should have not happened. I didn't say I regret it." He held my hands and stared at my eyes.

"What are you saying?"

"I don't have any idea what I should do. I mean, I like you but people might think that I am just using you."

"I am not a minor. I am turning eighteen in a few weeks and my mom would never see you as someone taking advantage of me. Besides, she likes you."

"Well, she does but I don't think that she'll continue to like me once she finds out that we had sex." He pointed out.

"We don't have to tell her. I don't think that my

    Raquel’s POVI was hesitant to leave but Sacha looked at me signaled me to go. I was phasing back and forth in our living room while I waited for mom to come home. I wanted to eavesdrop but a part of me didn't want to know what they will be talking about. I wasn't hearing any loud voices so I hoped that it was a good sign. After more than an hour my mom opened the door and I embraced her."I'm sorry mom. It was my idea to keep it from you and I was the one who jumped him. He didn't take advantage of me. This is all my fault.""Listen, you're young and you are going to make lots of decisions in the future. I don't want you throwing all your potential by getting pregnant like me at a young age. I don't regret having you but I am just thinking what is best for you." "Mom, did you ask Sacha to stop seeing me?" I asked sadly."He told me he was serious with you and that he loves you. I am not going to stop you two from being together. I am not doing that but you have to promise me that yo

    Raquel’s POVI can see that mom and Sacha was in a serious conversation. I just realized looking at them that Sacha never told me about his family ever. I had no idea where his from and if he has any relatives. I think my mom knew more about that side of him than me. It just didn't come up I guess. Two years of living with him and I had no idea. I know a lot about him but he never once mentioned about his family. He did mention that we would talk about it so I should just wait. I was never the type to pressure someone in doing something they don't want. I don't really care much about things that people don't want to tell me. If it doesn't involve me I don't really care much about it. Let’s just say that I am more focused on myself than others. We were heading back to the house when we heard gunshots. Then I saw my mother suddenly collapsed on the ground. Everything happened so fast. All I can remember was seeing blood. I can only hear the loud siren from the ambulance. I had no idea

You seem more quiet than usual.""It's my mom's death anniversary soon and I just miss her." I replied sadly."You want to talk about it.""No, I just want to get this over with. The sooner I have this book published the better." I exclaimed."So you already have an ending?" Claire looked at me intrigued."Oh, I have better. I actually have three possible endings and I just need to figure out which one to publish." I replied proudly."You wrote three endings?" She looked at me surprised."I couldn't sleep last night and I was reminiscing and I ended up writing.""Wow, I wish I was as creative

Something just upset me.""You acted so unprofessional and do you have any idea how that backfires on me. I am your agent. If you were not up to those meetings, then you could have just told me." She replied pissed at me."I'm sorry. I hope that we can still go over toClarkson & Vera Publications and I can personally apologize to them for my attitude. I can explain what happened to them.""It's fine. I already talked to them. I made up an excuse that you were researching a new character for a new book and you needed to act like that to be able to relate to the emotion of your characters.""You lied to them for me. You didn’t have to do that.""Oh, honey I did it to save myself. What the fuck was that anyway?""I just missed my mom." I lied."I get it but that

"Is it her your trying to work with or Mr. Clarkson? I can see the way you've been looking at him. Are you attracted to him?"She asked seriously. "Wow, Claire just because you are getting married you can't just interpret my actions towards everybody as an attraction. Last time it was me attracted with Ms. Morgan and now Mr. Clarkson..."I pointed out. "You don't normally act this way. When was the last time you tried bribing someone? You don't just give away gifts to someone you just met." "Claire, I have a good feeling with working with Clarkson & Vera Publications." "Fine. I have other
