“Oh, Chase that is so romantic, that you will face your worst fears for the one you love. Hey Brie has James done anything like that for you?” Ocean says. “No. No, he hasn’t but it will be something I will ask him later. But hey we’re here to celebrate our girl let's party.” We all cheer and start dancing around the kitchen when one of my favorite club classics songs come on ‘I See The Light’ by Blacklite. “Oh, girl you know this is my song,” Charlotte says as I grab hold of Jen and Sel’s hands and make a circle as we sing and dance to the song. I want to include my new friends in with my old friends so we all can become a sisterhood of some sorts. As the song continues, I see the guys standing in the corner talking amongst themselves and I see my dad and Toni sitting at the table watching what is going on. I also see my dad smiling and I just love seeing that smile back on his face as we both know it has not been there for a very long time. As the party started to wind down Toni
Savannah: Hey there hot stuff, I miss you already and you haven’t been gone that long. Did you get home safely? Chase: My beautiful girl, I missed you the second I stepped away from you. I am home safely. Is it okay to admit it’s a turn-on knowing that you care so much about me? Because it is sweetheart. What are you and the girls doing for the rest of the night? Savannah: It is okay because it’s a turn-on for me too knowing I can turn you on. LOL. The girls and I are snuggled up in our bra and panties watching shirtless sexy men. How about you? What are you doing at home without me? Chase: Oh, baby please don’t torment me with that image of you in your bra and panties but please tell me Jen is wearing more than that as that image is scarring for any brother. LOL. But what’s this about shirtless men? And what do you mean by them being sexy? Baby I’ve not shown you sexy yet, if you want sexy all you gotta do is ask sweetheart. I have the guys round for the night, we’re chilling ha
Chase P.O.V Sitting in the game room with Greg playing on my retro pinball machine, and Lucas and I playing on the PlayStation on a favorite game of mine that I like to play to unwind Call Of Duty, I do nothing but think of Savannah. Lucas is kicking my ass as I am that distracted, I am losing focus. “Dude you are pussy whipped,” Lucas says as he kills my character again. “Fuck you, man,” I throw a cushion at his head. My aim being accurate it hits, and we both laugh at the encounter. “Seriously man, what has gotten into you? This is very unlike you,” Greg says after he finished his game of pinball, he walked over to the couch where Lucas and I are sat, and he sits on the chair facing us. “It’s Savannah, she has changed me, and I can’t be any happier about this change. I feel like I’m the old me again,” I admit my truth to them. “I’ve noticed a change I just thought it was because you got rid of that extra baggage you had stuck on your arm. Your playing is better you have a
And that is exactly what we did for the rest of the night. Savannah texted me a couple of hours later saying that the girls have all fell asleep watching Magic Mike XXL and she was going to do the same. I wished her goodnight and when I saw the guys Lucas fell asleep on the couch with the controller in his hands. Greg crashed about an hour ago stretched out on the floor with his head propped up on a bunch of cushions. Stretched out on my Lay-Z Boy, struggling to sleep, I am on my phone thinking about what Christmas present I should get Savannah. Thinking about the day we had, all our conversations, there was nothing that stood out that made me think I should get her that for Christmas. You would have thought with knowing this beautiful woman for months now I would know what she likes, what she doesn’t like, if there’s anything she wants, and what she has. Best thing is G****e search for what to get your girlfriend for their first Christmas. The net says that you can never go wrong
“Candace, that’s enough. You are making a show of yourself and you are currently being recorded by multiple people. I give it five minutes before this little act of craziness is all over the internet and trending.” “Dude, I wouldn’t even give it five minutes I’m on TikTok Live and the comments are going crazy. I have people saying entitled Karen, crazy bitch, and I hope she gets what she deserves.” “Greg, you fucking dick take that down now, I will ruin you.” Candace still struggles to break free trying to lunge at Greg. I step in front of her to get her attention to me for the last time. “Candace, just leave, will you? You know for a fact you will not ruin Greg his family and mine tower over yours together in the business world. And this is now the last time I ever want to see you. Expect a lovely Christmas present from me this year in the form of a restraining order, but not just for me but for Greg, Lucas, Jen, Selena, and for my Savannah. You better stick to the terms of the
Savannah P.O.V Chase hands me back my phone after I see what he’s set his name as. I smile as I read it he can be so sweet without even trying. Hearing everything Chase went through today I can’t believe Candace would be that vindictive. It seems like stalking has gone to the next level nowadays. Chase drapes his arm over my shoulders, and I lean into his hold as we look out onto the lake. “I can’t believe she would stoop so low just to what control you, or pressure you to get back with her?” “It doesn’t matter anymore sweetheart. I have made sure she will now stay far away from you, me my family, and our friends. If she doesn’t then she’ll be taken to court,” he says with such confidence. “I hope she does stay away; you don’t deserve this chaos. So, how was your guys night last night? Did you get up to much?” We get into a discussion where Chase tells me everything him and the boys did last night. I tell him what me and the girls talked and did during our movie night. We laug
“I’m happy they picked them charities too sweetheart. So, moving on to the reason of our call,” Chase hold up the present I got him and gives it a gentle shake. “This has been in my jacket pocket ever since you gave it to me, and it has been driving me crazy wanting to know what’s inside it.” I hold up the box that Chase gave me too. “I must admit, I have been the same too. Shall we open them together?” I ask him. “Together on three?” I nod and we both start counting down together and when be both say three, we tear into the wrapping to see we each hold a velvet-looking box. I give Chase a questioning look at my box. It’s too small to be anything big like a bracelet or a necklace, or even a watch. But the box is too big for it to be a ring too. Chase is sitting there on his bed looking at me with a sexy smirking look on his face and he gives me a flirtatious wink. I open the box to see the most beautiful pair of emerald earrings I have ever seen. “Oh, my gosh.” “Do you like the
Chase P.O.V Is it me or does the Christmas sermon feel longer every year? I feel I have been sitting in this pew for hours, but I am so glad it’s over and we can go home I’m starving. Getting back in the car heading home, I check the time on my new Rolex watch Dad got me for a present and see it’s one in the afternoon. I wonder what Savannah and her dad are doing for Christmas. I want to text her to see how her day is, but I don’t want to disturb this day with her and her dad. We pull into the driveway to see another car parked outside. I don’t recognize it but surely it couldn’t be. Could it? When getting out of the car my mind is going crazy in thought. Jen walks round to me and meets me at the trunk of the car, the both of us looking at the car in front of us. “Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” she asks me, I look at her and shrug my shoulders just as the car doors open. A familiar set of legs step out of the car and I hold my breath. I know them legs anywhere, I have fa

Chase P.O.VFour years later Well, it’s been four amazing years in San Fransisco. Savannah and I graduated college last week. I got a degree in Business and in Finance, where Savannah got one in English Literature and in Music. Where I double majored in college Savannah had a major in English but a minor in music. We both graduated with high honors. The world is now our oyster. But before we can even think about anything to do with the world and how we wish to change it I am back at the office wanting to speak to Savannah’s father. It is now time we had that discussion I said I planned to have with him back when we were seniors in high school. Fuck that feels like forever ago. I told her father on the night of the Christmasqurade ball that one day I will come to him to ask for his daughter’s hand in marriage and today is that day. I have arranged for a meeting with Mr. Blakemore to take place in the company’s board room and I asked my dad to be present during this meeting. I plan fo
It has been a couple of weeks since prom and the big day is approaching quickly. Today we get our yearbooks and get them signed before graduation day that is this Saturday. It’s hard to believe this is our final week in high school. It feels like today is still my first day of school but it’s actually almost my last. Not paying attention to where I was going or who was around me with my yearbook in hand I collide into a big, solid mass of a person knocking my books, my yearbook, and some odd bits of paper all over the floor. Bending down to pick everything up, still not paying attention to who I bumped into, on instinct I do apologize to the person as I start picking up my things. I see the person I bumped into bend down and starts to help me with picking up my things and holds out my English book and my notes to hand back to me. I can’t believe I’ve done this again. “You may need these sweetheart,” Hang on a minute? Did I just? Looking up I see Chase smiling at me as he holds my stuf
We all climb out of the limo and the guys are all holding our arms and escorts us up into the building. Two doormen kindly open the door for us and welcome us to the Crystal Palace and to enjoy our evening. First stop for us as Chase and Lucas recommended is to get our pictures done first so then that way, we don’t look too red faced or sweaty. That is actually not a bad idea if you think about it. We get a bunch of pictures took, we had solo pictures, the six of us together, just the girls, just the guys, and with our dates. I can’t wait to see how the pictures come out because I will be getting a copy of every single one. Entering into the ballroom of the palace we can hear the DJ playing ‘Just Dance’ by Lady Gaga. We walked around couples and across the dancefloor to the only table that is free for us to claim. The girls and I put our purses on the table and hit the dance floor with how good the music is sounding. After a couple of songs, the guys joined us on the dance floor alre
After clipping my bow into place, I have one final look at myself in my bathroom mirror before I step out and show the girls. Walking to the door, putting my hand on the handle I close my eyes, take a deep breath, and open the bathroom door. On the other side of the door, I see Jen and Selena with their phones taking my picture and recording me as I walk out. Putting a huge smile on my face I walk out the bathroom giving the girls a twirl and a cute little princess curtsey I have seen Princess Catherine do before. The girls laugh and comment how incredible I look, and Jen commented on the bow. “How big did you want that thing? Fuck Sav that’s the biggest ass bow I have ever seen stuck on anybody’s ass.” We laugh at her comment as I walk over to my vanity. Sitting down on my stool I put in a pair of my mom’s diamond and pearl drop earrings and her snowflake necklace again. Wearing this necklace makes everything feel like it’s turned in a full circle. Finding out Chase was Wolf behind
Three weeks later Tonight is prom night. The night all the senior girls look forward to the most. Don’t ask me about the guys some look forward to it for other reasons than what it means. The girls and I are getting ready together. We all booked to get our hair and makeup done at a salon today for tonight. We are sat in the chairs getting pampered away, a treat from Selena’s Abuela, as she said no Nieta of hers will not go to prom without having a beauty day at the salon. We all chose to have a French manicure and pedicure, to keep it simple. We also showed our makeup artists pictures of our dresses so they could do our makeup to match our dresses. Jen’s hair shaped her face beautifully. She had a volumized high ponytail with some hair extensions that matched her hair color perfectly with elegant curls and some curls framing her face. To finish the look off she had this black jeweled crystal hair clip she slid into the top part of the ponytail. Jen’s makeup made her look much older t
Walking into the house I see Dad sat on the stairs with what looks like a photo album in his hand. I shut the door behind me and slowly approach him looking at the sad expression on his face as he stares at a photo in the book. When I got closer, he looked up at me with unshed tears in his eyes. When I asked him if everything was okay, he said that everything was fine and he was just living back in the past, and he showed me the page he was looking at in the photo album. It was Mom and Dad’s high school graduation. It was the picture of Mom with her diploma and then Dad with his diploma and under that was the picture of the two of them together. Dad told me the story about how him and Mom met in high school. Hearing what he said was almost a de ja vu. Mom bumped into Dad as she wasn’t watching where she was going, and Dad bent down to help Mom pick up her things and he said it was like love at first sight. We sat on the stairs for a few more minutes just talking and reliving the good
The school year is flying by. Finals are vastly approaching; concert rehearsals are in full swing and it’s almost time for prom season. Chase has been working hard at school and working harder with football. Right now, he has done all he can to impress the college scouts. We all have been working hard I’ve even seen Jen studying some pre law books and even reading about the LSATS. Selena went to some business seminars to see if that is truly the route she wants to go down after graduation. Lucas has been working just as hard if not harder than Chase with his school work and with football. Greg on the other hand has slacked off a little but he has already confirmed he has a secured place in college already. But which one? I don’t know. College acceptance letters should be coming in the post soon but how long after finals will they arrive? Hopefully not long as I believe they wait for finals and the final grades before sending out the letters. All this pressure can make or break some hi
Lunch in hand, Selena and I start walking to the bleachers when Greg and Lucas catch up to us, and the four of us walk together the rest of the way. Jen and Chase are already sat up in the bleachers as we arrived. Lucas helped Selena up with her food and Chase came down to help with mine and we went and joined Jen and enjoy our lunch together. We joked around and had a good time just as we should do at our age because with this being our senior year we only have a short time together like this before we go our separate ways for college. Speaking of college, we all talked about where we have applied for and where we hope to go. Lucas has had a couple of calls from college scouts and Chase said he has had the same but the one he is hoping to hear from he has not just yet. Jen said she is wanting to do a couple of years in one college and then go to Harvard to study law as that is where she feels more passionate, and she gets to be part of the family business in some way or another. Greg
