He had seen her on the dress before but it didn't look as elegant as this, he wiped his face with a handkerchief to be sure he wasn't getting teary. She had curled her hair into magnificent waves that dropped to her shoulders.

Her shoulders gleamed under the bright chandelier that hung on the ceilings of the stairs. She flashed her radiant smile at him, his heart melted again. She was wearing the emerald green version of the blue heart necklace which was paired with complementary earrings.

It seemed like she was taking forever to come down the stairs. He resisted the urge to meet her where she was and lift her in his arms down the stairs.

It felt like prom night again, but with someone he actually loved. She finally met him at the foot of the stairs and placed her manicured hands on his jacket and straightened the collar.

They heard a gentle cough from behind and separated.

Uncle Jeff came from the living room and handed her her coat. “I expect that you won't catch a cold with him,

He introduced her to his parents as his girlfriend, he was so proud of it.They had received her warmly, contrary to what she had expected.

She had imagined him to be a viscous, stubborn, shorter man.He smiled at her when she put her hand forward for a handshake.

    The steam from the coffee cup cleared up shortly, so Serena could see the tulip latte art the barista had carefully designed. She giggled lightly to herself and hoped the staff had gotten her order right. If she ever had a period she was most grateful for her caramel blonde hair, it would be that moment in the soft white, cozy hotel robe. She watched herself sip from the cup again, feeling like those rich powerful women in movies, having everything at their beck and call. She smiled inwardly and winked. She fell with her back into one of the softest beds she'd laid on in her life, her legs hanging down at the edge of the bed. It could be the softest…after her Aunt Mabel's bed of course. She heard the bird chirp notification of her phone right above her head. She tried to feel around for the phone while trying to figure out the intricate designs of the chandelier.Another notification came on, but she still couldn't reach the laptop. She sighed and turned around swiftly, but the imp

    Wow, what a chaotic place! Serena thought aloud in her head. She bumped into a hard but smooth surface as she turned to face her path. The owner of the body walked away so fast that she couldn't even catch a glimpse of who had hit her. For sure, she was aware it was a guy and he wasn't so fast for her not to inhale the lemon fragrance that came with him. She rubbed her eyes and shrugged. She had better watch her step next time. She walked down the street while checking spots she could visit on the guide. There happened to be a public library around the corner, one of the largest in the area. After asking a teenager who was weirdly excited about giving her directions, she headed for the library. She settled for a collection of short stories by Jane Woods, a 'crime books for kids' author. She enjoyed reading it, the simplified diction and the way it still gave the thrills. She was on the last story when her stomach began to grumble. She only had coffee for breakfast. It was not yet

    "Why do you feel entitled to it? I don't know you, you could have been a kidnapper or something, dragging me off the road like that!" Serena argued."Seriously? I was supposed to slowly take you off your feet, what is that? Hollywood drama? I don't think that happens anymore!" His voice got louder.They were still on the street, she'd better not take it too far. She rolled her eyes, "I'm sorry," she shrugged, "but you could have been a little more gentle, my heart almost flew out of my mouth, that's a faster way to kill." "Sorry." He rolled his eyes as he brushed off the bangs of hair that were almost in his eyes. "Just sorry?" Serena wondered why she was wasting her time talking to the guy but her stomach reminded her of where she was headed. Turned out he heard the alarm too. She watched him try to hide his amusement."I'm sorry," he managed to say through his hands covering his mouth. What a jerk.It was fifteen minutes past twelve when Serena checked the time on her phone. She d

    "Are you not going to sit?" Jaxon said when she finally approached the table."Thank you." She moved the chair and took a seat."What are you going to eat?" He said after a short pause again. She didn't know why she was so nervous all of a sudden. It was not like she was on a date with him. My God, she didn't even know him!"I'll have to read the menu." She stretched her hand to him and collected the menu he was holding. "Is this everything?" She asked not knowing what to order after going through the menu for the second time. "You'll love the burger. It will be my second time here." He shared."You don't come here often?" Serena asked so she didn't have to keep an awkward silence."Why?" He chuckled, "do I look like someone that patronizes places like this every minute?"She shrugged while he called a waiter and placed the order. Once the waiter left, he whispered, "Bills on me." She nodded, she couldn't argue. "I don't want to say 'you don't have to be uptight', but it's okay if

    "Don't worry about me, I'm on vacation too, I will be here all month doing what I like." Jaxon replied."Ohhh…I'll only be here for a week." She said."You want to go somewhere fun now? We could go to an arcade around here." "And then you say, 'bills on me'' Serena tried to mimic his much deeper voice."You can pay if you want to, I'm just being a gentleman." They were at the road that led to the hotel, how fast. How did he even know where she was going? She stopped abruptly."What's wrong?" He asked, raising a brow. She liked the way his face looked when he did it."It's nothing, we can part ways from here." Serena extended her hand to him in a hand shake gesture. He looked down at it. She wasn't so tall and not so short either, but Jaxon was quite tall with the way he towered above me. It was quite intimidating."I'll be seeing you tomorrow?" He said before shaking my hand.She did a quick mental check of her schedule. She didn't have a schedule. She didn't have plans for tomorrow

    Selena looked from the cab to Jaxon, wondering how he managed to always pull up with a cab without even signaling for one.The cab driver attempted to leave his seat to come outside, but Jaxon waved him off to remain inside. He opened the door to the back seat himself, bowed his head slightly while holding the car door, and keeping his palm in the manner professional chauffeurs would.If he wanted to impress Serena, he was wrong because she had suspicion written all over her face, as she reluctantly entered the cab.Her dress was quite short, so when Jaxon joined her inside the cab, she attempted to drag it down. He saw what she did and smiled, he didn't want her to see it, so he faced the other way."I don't trust you." Serena was the first to speak. She glared at him.Jaxon looked straight ahead, he didn't even turn to look at her, yet she could see the mischievous smile he gave. Serena had to admit as she watched him from the side. He was so cute, which even annoyed her more."Yet

    Jaxon could tell that Selena was nervous, but he enjoyed it. He admired that she could be stubborn, yet she managed to keep calm when she wanted to.He didn't like carnivals like this, he thought they were for kids, but he didn't have any idea of places to go at the moment, and he thought she would like something like this.He had seen the fear in her eyes when she saw the roller coaster, and he wondered if she was really scared or if he was just exaggerating.There was only one way to find out."Let's take a ride on the Ferris wheel." He stopped in front of her.Her eyes darted sideways before settling in front of her, she didn't stare at him. She kept her eyes on his chest."Why? There are so many other things to try," said Serena."I know, we could do this first, the queue isn't long yet," Jaxon replied.Serena looked at the small crowd around the foot of the roller coaster. She could count about ten heads. That was fair enough."Are you scared of heights?" Jaxon asked as he closed

    “I'd like for us to have an official date, not just reconciling in the middle of a launch like this, it's so busy around here, but first I'd like to invite you to my inauguration party this weekend” Jaxon leaned in to whisper to Serena.Serena's eyes darted from left to right and she looked up at him. She didn't expect him to say that. “Inauguration party?” “Yes, you know, corporate stuff, I'm sorry it's going to be a lot bigger than this and all of that formal shit, but I'll be by your side. I want you by my side.”“I…I don't know, I'd love to…but,” she began but he hushed her before she made any excuse.“I'm desperate right now to be honest and I can go on my knees for you not to refuse me. Did I forget to tell you or has Hadley told you?”“Told me what?” Serena asked confused.Jaxon’s mood shifted to a more solemn one, “I heard you found out who your…real mum is.” Serena nodded and kept on paying attention to him, the information wasn't something to bother her again. “And she happ

    Serena loved her experience in Florida, the person she had stayed with was the most hospitable person ever. She showed her around herself, she made sure she always had something to eat. She even waited for her at the airport during her arrival in Florida.She took her to the most exciting places, met new sane people. She fell in love with the most mundane things and she had a lot of fun.It was quite sad that everything had to come to an end but she was excited for what was coming. Hadley was going to launch her restaurant in the coming week so she left Florida during the weekend.Uncle Jeff and Aunt Mabel were so happy to see her. They had celebrated New Year without her. She immediately went to Hadley's house to see her, her brother and mum had come to Rhode Island for the launch too.Serena remembered when she used to crush on Hadley's brother. Hadley had been so against it, that they almost fought. He had more tattoos now and Serena already heard he had a girlfriend, so there was

    “Serena, Hadley is here!” Mabel called Serena from the front door. Serena screamed with joy like she'd been for her since forever. She wore her indoor slippers and ran down the stairs.“Oh my God, Hadley,” she hugged her until they both fell on their knees and were lying on the floor of the front door. Mabel looked at the hilarious sight, it felt good to see them like this again. It was like they were sixteen and about to resume high school again.“Come on girls, you're making fools of yourselves in front of the neighbors.”“Hey, the neighbors,” Hadley jumped to her feet and gave Serena a helping hand, “is Gavin still around?” She grinned.Serena tapped he arm lightly, “all you know how to do is ask after your men, you wouldn't ask how I'm doing before you move into your men.” She joked.Serena carried Hadley's small travel bag inside the house. Hadley came behind her and shut the door. She took off her shoes at the small passageway just before she entered the living room. Mabel gave

    Jaxon wondered why she demanded to meet him in person. She'd been trying to contact him for days and the assistant he assigned to her had been bugging him.He finally decided to spare some time for her. He arranged a meeting with her at a cafe close to his office. He made sure it was during busy hours when people would be around in case she wanted to try something funny.She had the effrontery to be late, he kept on checking his wristwatch for the time. He ordered coffee and sipped it bit by bit as he watched the people walking into the cafe through his shades.A few people still managed to recognize him, some of them pointed at him discreetly. It was amusing how he had turned from nobody to somebody and everyone wanted to identify with him. He didn't like having bodyguards around him, so he still had to deal with pushing some people off by himself.Anybody would rush at him, for business proposals, for food, money, assistance. He didn't know how to explain to them that he wasn't a wa

    Serena chose to ignore her presence and sat down beside her Uncle who was seated alone at the breadth of the rectangular table. Aunt Mabel sat opposite her, next to him while Amora sat beside her sister. They were having fried turkey with rice and salad. Serena allowed Aunt Mabel to dish her food and she began eating. She expected them to say something about why this woman was with them. They didn't say anything until they finished eating.The normal tradition was to watch sitcoms together anytime they had a meal at the dinning room. Aunt Mabel would be the first to sit in the sitting room, Serena would join her while Uncle Jeff would come in last.Aunt Mabel always slept halfway into movies, Serena and Jeff would binge watch movies together until Uncle Jeff was tired he'd take her aunt into the room while she either continued watching more shows or she'd retired to her room.That was when they ate together, but on other nights when she had her meal in her room, she'd just watch stu

    Serena began speaking after the waiter left. She had given the restaurant a four star review for both of them.“I know my place, Jaxon. Our worlds are totally different and you have a lot going on. I should be the least of your worries. Whatever you have going on with your brother, you should resolve it. Family is more important, focus on that. You might regret it so much if you lose any of them. It can happen at anytime, any minute, so please, take care of yourself. I'll always remain grateful to you for getting my uncle out and giving us our house back, but you see, it makes us even more indebted to you. I don't think any further affiliation with you would be good.”Jaxon sighed, “I'm not asking you for anything. It's just..”“My uncle still has to work for your company to make sure everything is returned, doesn't he?” Serena asked him, he sighed, they both knew the answer.“It's not like he's working for the replacement of the funds, I'll figure it out, but it's not like you're s

    She wore a teardrop pearl necklace that sitted well on her chest suiting the V-neck blouse she'd chosen to wear her black mini skirt with. It was nothing grand, she reminded herself.She had picked the venue and made sure to come twenty minutes late. She walked into the cafe and didn't have to look around too much to find him. He was punctual, all these things he was doing to repent.He had shades on, but she could tell him apart even if there were several men wearing the same suit he wore. He looked nice in a suit. She laughed in her head, he still became the corporate guy he dreaded so much - because of her, she was reminded by another of her thoughts. Shut Up- she told it back.Lemons - he had started using that bath wash again or he intentionally used it to remind her of the first time she met him. She maintained her stoic expression. He wasn't exactly smiling at her as well, but he looked good, seductive as always in whatever he wore. He would be the center of attraction in his
