I close the door of the convertible and go to Jer's family's house. I can make out the shadow of Aunt Smanatha in the kitchen, probably cooking. Her food is so delicious, you can never get sick of it. I walk in and Seth takes me in his arms. I giggle and slap his arm as soon as he sets me down. My knuckles hurt after that punch."Shit. When did you start working out?" I ask him."Are you okay?" He says, eyeing my hand."Yeah, but you are strong. Since when?" I ask him."I have always been strong, sis. You just never hit me." He says..,"Yeah. I should have hit you sooner." I say and we look at each other and laugh. Out loud. Completely cackling. Auntie comes out and when she sees me, she grins. She washes her hands quickly and hugs me. She kisses my cheeks and I hug her back. I have missed her. I realise it only now and hug her tighter. She loosens the embrace and looks at me."You have homecoming tomorrow and look at your skin. Have you eaten anything at all?" She says."Aunt Samantha
Andrew's POV:The door closes behind me. I enter the house and see that Charlie and everyone else are back. I quicken my pace and meet them in the living room. As I enter, they all stand up and look at each other."What's going on?" I ask them."How is Ana?" Aurora asks."She's doing fine. Now tell me, who did you see?" I turn to Charlie."You need to sit down for this." He says. I sit down hesitantly, afraid of what he's going to say."Well, the look I had was a shadow, not clear enough to identify the person." Says he."Yes, but did you find anything relevant?" I add."Yes, he had a tattoo." He pauses."What kind of tattoo?" I say, looking at everyone, unable to decipher their reactions."A bleeding heart on his back." He says."What?" says I, startled. Because if he means what I think, we are doomed."We only know one person with that tattoo," said Jasper."That does not mean it's HIM." Says Alex, contradicting her friend."Did he have a scar?" I ask Charlie."Yes. From his right ch
Ana's POV: The day that I couldn't wait for has arrived. In case you don't know, it's Homecoming! I take my exquisite dress out and the pair of devil heels that Alex gifted me. If you saw me right now, you would have heard me squealing for sure. I change into my dress and take the heels downstairs to aunt's room with me and seat myself at her 'GLAM STATION', also called as dressing area by normal people, except aunt Sara. I free my hair from the ponytail and wait for aunt Sara to return with her products. Just like that, aunt Sara returns with the curling rod and her makeup products. "Now, who's ready to glam up?" She asks and I nod. Let's get this party started! *_* After what feels like a decade, my hair and makeup both are done. I turn around and my aunt dreamily sighs and wipes her teary eyes. "Oh. You look so pretty." She adds, "Your father would've almost had a heart attack if he saw you going out like that." "Yeah. He would've put me in a lockdown for sure." I laugh. "T
Something crunches beneath my feet and I let out a terrified sound that has Drew coming towards me."What was that?" He asks me."There is something near my feet. ," I tell him."Okay. Don't move. Let me check." He says and I follow his instructions and stay still,He bends down and picks something up. What is that? A ring?"It's just a stupid ring." Drew says, and he is about to toss it away when it hits me."Wait! " I say and take that ring back."Why?" He asks me."See. This is the same ring that Maurel had on her." I tell him."So?" He says, without any clue."The ring that she got today. It means that she is nearby." I explain."Yeah. I didn't know it was hers." He says as we continue walking, me behind him. Then suddenly he stops walking and I end up hitting his back."Ouch." I exclaim and rub my head."Stay quiet. Okay?" He whispers and slowly turns."What is i-? " I can barely complete my sentence before he picks me up and runs. In vampire speed. I think I might throw up. I can
Ana's POV: I close the door to my room and head downstairs. "Why didn't you wake me up yesterday?" Is the first thing that aunt says when she sees me. "Oh. Morning to you. " I smile , "And to answer your question, I didn't want to wake you up because of how your resting schedules are." "Fine, that is convincing so I will let it past . For now." She makes her sandwich and sits beside me, "So, Tell me everything that happned ." I tell her everything, excluding the vincent and blah blah part. "So he kissed you?" She asks me. "Yes.I mean, I kissed him back too." I say. "Well, have you guys dated yet?" "No." I say and then add," Actually, he is taking me on a date today." "I have two things to say right now. First, You should have dated drew before kissing him. Second, I am happy to see you all moved on from that scum of an ex." I exclaim, "You can't say that ! He was good in the start before - you know he," "Cheated. Yes, And thirdly, you need to call Drew right now." She says.
Andrew returns with a masterpiece covered in brown paper. He hands the painting to me and I grin in return. I seriously didn't thought he would do it . I go outside with my hand tucked in his and he opens the trunk and puts the painting inside. He opens my door and I get inside." First of all, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you so much for this gift but you shouldn't have bought it. Especially on our first date-" He tries to cut me off but I don't let him," And secondly-" I kiss him and his hand automatically goes at the nape of my neck and he pulls me upon him. His thumb hovers over my pulse and he presses lightly, a little sensually and a moan slips from me. My neck and cheeks heat up and he pins me on the steering wheel and he pulls away just to kiss me on my lower lip, then on my jaw and then on my neck. He gives me an open mouth kiss on my pulse and I grab a pieceful of his shirt and grip it. His teeth graze that pulse point. I almost pull his shirt off. ALMOST. He looks at me and t
I finish my last glass of wine for tonight. As told by Drew. If it was upto me , I would have drank some more but I can't handle my liquor well so drew stopped me before it came to that point . Yeah , Aunt Sara is okay with me drinking wine , without alcohol or less alcohol. This started when i lost my parents and I kind of started drinking wine . Like a lot. So we had a truce that helps me control my urge and balance it."It's getting cold for you. Come on , let's go in." He says and in a second all of the stuff and empty dishes are inside. I get up and Drew comes back to pick the sheets and we head in. "So, what now?" I ask as I get inside and sit on the couch. "What do you want to do?" Drew replies. "Well, you planned this date so you get a say in it." I revert back. "Do you want to go home yet?" He asks me , his brows scrunched. "I don't know. I mean it is getting late. But-" I am cut off by drew . "No need to go home then. You can stay here for the night. I think Sara won't
After getting numerous calls from Alex about how she wants both of us at Aurora's house immediately, Drew drives us there. We both get out and enter the living room to see whole family there. I quickly greet everyone as Alex and Jasper stand up. "You all might be wondering why we have announced this family meeting." Alex says and holds Jasper's hands and Jasper smile at her. "Yeah." Everbody replies. "I would like to tell everyone that-" She waits and then adds," I am getting married!" She raises her hand for us to see the huge ring. It's so gorgeous. Me and Alex both squeal and we hug each other as we jump up and down. "Okay. Stop it , you guys." Jasper says. "Yeah. I want to say something." Drew says and me and Alex calms down. "Yeah?" Alex says. "I have to warn you that if you trouble my bestfriend , you will have to face my wrath." Drew says keeping his arm of Jasper's shoulder and then he turns to Alex and raises his eyebrow. "Whatever." She says," You know, most brothers
