I returned to our table and slid into the booth as Leo finished his beer, so how do I say to him that Domenic is on his way here? I mean I shouldn't have a problem with it but want to rub salt on a fresh wound, and I don't want Domenic throwing a jealous tantrum either."Good you're back, I need to go now so I paid the tab. Do you want me to drive you somewhere?" Leo said as he gathered his jacket in his arms. "You're leaving already?" It looks like he can't wait to get as far away as possible from me."Yeah, I'm gonna go spend the rest of the day with Mom and my brothers. They came to have a barbecue and to send me off tomorrow." I have a feeling I am not getting an invitation this time."Well Domenic just called me, he told me to wait for him here." Leo nodded his head and then slowly got up and I followed his action. "Why don't you wait with me for a bit?" The look on his face tells me he really doesn't want to. "I don't think that's a good idea." Of course not, what was I thinkin

We drive up to my house and the first thing I notice is how clean my front yard is, my mother's roses still blooming and my front porch clean and free of leaves. As we get out of the car I see my old neighbor throwing out trash and he waves his hand at me when he sees me. "Hello, Mr.Evans." I say as I walk over to his fence. "Autumn, is that you child? I haven't seen you in a long time." He and his wife used to babysit me when I was little and Mom had to work, later as I grew up his eyesight began to worsen so I would often read books for him. "Yes, Mr.Evans. How are you?" I ask as I extend my hand to him and he gently shakes it. "Not as good as you but I can't complain, as long as I have my Olivia by my side I'm great." If someone ever told me to show them a happy couple I'd pick them. No matter how many years have passed their love remains the same. "I see you brought company, don't tell me you are finally settling down." I smile as I turn to Domenic and pull him over so I can i

Domenic's POV "How long has she been like this?" Summer asks me as she brings me a cup of coffee while I stand on the bedroom door watching Autumn curled up in her bed. I take the cup in my hands and then close the door of her room as I guide Summer down the hall to the little space with chairs and a bookshelf Autumn used for reading. "Ever since we came home from the funeral, she curled up into a ball and cried into her pillow until she fell asleep." I sit down and place my cup of steaming coffee down as Summer sighs and joins me. "Leo's death hit her pretty hard, Anthony told me just how important he was to Autumn, how much he helped her." I can still hear Autumn's screams in my head when she collapsed into my arms in the hospital as Leo died and the doctors called it. She only got up from the floor to hug his grieving mother who was suffering the loss of her son with the rest of the family. The whole night I felt like an impostor among them, even if they didn't know it I didn't

"Mr. Davis, we've already been through this. You have to say your feelings out loud because only when you hear yourself admit it can you take action." Dr.Miller said as she opened her notebook and wrote something down as she talked to me. I hate it when she does that, not knowing what she writes makes me wanna get up and take it away from her. But then again that's why I'm here to explore my feelings. "I have a hard time seeing her in such a bad state, and I fear she loved him more than she realized at the time." Dr. Miller just looks at me like she knows that's not everything I have to say and I sigh as I brace myself for the next words that are about to come out of my mouth."I think she did in fact love him but now that he's gone for good she finally realised it and that's what killing her." I don't know if that sums it up but I feel like it's a start. "Mr.Davis, you are just telling me what you think she feels, but what are you feeling?" God, woman that's what I'm paying you to f

Autumn's POV I lay in my bed, curled up into a ball with my eyes closed and head buried in the pillow with my nose out just enough to breathe. My body feels heavy and the sole thought of moving seems impossible. I don't feel hunger or thirst, just emptiness within the part of me that used to be filled with love for someone who's no longer here. I'm filled with regret, because of me Leo spent his last days suffering. Maybe if I had gone to look for him, maybe if I did a better job explaining my feelings for him. Or if I told him the history I shared with Domenic he would have understood me better. How is it fair that on the same day he saved my life he lost his? Where was God when that happened? Every time I ask myself that question I remember the things Leo used to say to me after my mother died. "Have faith, everything is a part of a bigger plan, you just don't see it right now." What was the plan here? What point could it possibly have to kill someone's child, someone's brother, s

Leo didn't just died, someone cut the brakes on his car but that literally makes no sense. The only thing Leo was missing to become an angel were wings, he had everything else. So who would hurt someone like that."Henry how... How can that be? Why would someone want to hurt Leo?" I ask him because I most surly didn't have the answer."I don't know Autumn, but I swear Im gonna find out. But for now please don't say anything to my mother, I don't know what would that news do to her." Still consumed by the shock I nod my head and Henry leaders us into the house, Domenic walked close behind me not saying a single word and carrying a strange look on his face. We entered the living room where Samantha sat in the chair next to the window, in her hands a framed picture of Leo in black and white. She didn't seem to notice us come in until I came closer to her and touched her hand."Samantha." I call out her name softly as she rises her head to look at me, her eyes red from all the crying and

"I know my words may not help much, but I'm sure he's still with us. If we keep him in our hearts he will never leave us." There really isn't much to say that wouldn't sound like a cliche, because everything else has already been said."Thank you Autumn, when that comes from you it truly has a meaning. You know there was a time in which I hoped to see the two of you together, he cared a lot about you." Samantha said then her face turned to Domenic who slowly removed his hand from mine. "I apologize, Domenic, my words are inappropriate please forgive me. The two of you make such a good couple, cherish her as I'm sure she will you." She apologizes to Domenic and I take his hand back into mine as he looks me in the eyes, he's been handling all this Leo talk I realize I never stopped to ask him how was he feeling. "He does, if it weren't for him I wouldn't be able to get myself out of bed today." And I don't know if I thanked him yet, I've been so consumed in my world that I completely i

All the ride home I was on pins and needles because Domenic decided it would be better if we talked once we were at home, which made me wonder about two things. First, why the hell did he say he wanted to talk and then stop knowing it would only irritate me? And second, what could it be that had Domenic seem so scared? We got out of the car and started walking towards the house when Mrs.Olivia started calling me from her porch and we walked a bit closer to the fence."Yes, Mrs.Olivia. Can we help you somehow?" Domenic asked before I could even open my mouth. He has become quite friendly with my neighbors in the short time he's been here. "Ohh blessed be young boy, were alright. I just wanted to tell Autumn a man came over looking for her." Someone came looking for me, a man, and someone Olivia didn't know and she knows everyone that ever came by the house. "Did he say who he was or what he wanted?" I asked stunned"What did he look like?" Domenic asked imposing over me."He was a yo

Sasha lets him fall into one of our Victorian chairs while Adam and I stand in front of him like parents who are about to scoll their child. But this talk was very necessary, for the sake of our sibling bond and their friendship.I glance at Adam, silently asking him if he’s ready for this. His calm smile reassures me. He’s been patient, waiting for this moment to happen, but I know it’s not easy for him either."Sasha," I start, my voice steady but firm, "we need to have a real talk about all this because Adam isn’t some phase or fling. He’s serious, and I am too. And I need you to accept that. Not just for me, but for us...all of us.""So, let me get this straight," he says, finally breaking the silence, his voice low. "You two have been sneaking around behind my back, hiding this whole thing, and now suddenly I’m supposed to just accept it? What was all that about, huh?"Adam shifts next to me, his hand resting lightly on my back, but I can feel the muscles in his shoulders tense up

...That night... "...so now we are not only friends and brothers-in-law but I had the privilege of being his best man. What he and Autumn have is special, anyone can see that, and all I can say is that I wish them both happiness. Also Autumn I'd like to ask your permission to take him out this Friday to play ball." Anthony jokes as he finishes his best man speech. I once heard of a so-called bromance Domenic and Anthony had pretty much ever since they met each other. Summer said she found it endearing. "As long as Summer gave you permission to go." Autumn hits Anthony with a comeback. "But Friday is a no-go, we have a Lamaze class," Autumn says as she touches Domenic's shoulder. "But you are free to join us," She added to which I started connecting the dots. Why Summer looked somewhat green on her face, why she didn't eat and why would she go to a Lamaze class... "That's a great idea." Summer says and Anthony looks at her strangely. "Why would we go to a Lamaze class?" He asks an

Alex's POV I woke up with a smile on my face as the light of the day shined over my face. Despite the cold, I wrapped myself into a blanket and sat in the corner of my balcony, breathing in the familiar salty ocean air. I used to sit here and watch over the driveway, waiting for Adam's car to drive in, and while everything seemed the same, everything had changed. Now, we were together, dreaming about a future and enjoying the present. A day I once dreaded would never come was now here and the happines set in my chest could be painted in a million colours. I smiled to myself, thinking about how far I’d come. How we had come. With Adam, I had learned to be whole. I closed my eyes, letting the wind brush across my face, and took a deep breath. The salty air mixed with the faint scent of coffee surrounded me too and I suddenly opened my eyes to meet Mrs.Henrdics standing at the balcony door with coffee in hand. "Good morning." She says as she walks over to me and hands me to warm cup.

"How is Autumn?" Eloise asks us as soon as we walk in leaving her cup of tea on the living room table."She is alright, as is the baby. They are gonna keep her overnight. Domenic stayed behind but I think Richard and Sasha will go home soon." I say as her eyes travel to the spot where Alex and I are holding hands when my mother comes to stand by Eloise. The smile on her face told me everything I needed to know."So... the two of you..." Eloise gestures between Alex and me. "How long has this been going on?" She asks."A while now," Alex says. "And before you start, it was my idea to keep it a secret. I didn't want our families involved before we were sure of where this was going." "I think that was very sensible of you." My mother says as she joins the conversation. "So now that you are sharing the news does it mean it's official?" "But they didn't share the news, they were discovered in a secret. There is a clear distinction." Eloise says.Alex laughs softly at Eloise’s comment, squ

"How is she? Can I see her?" Domenic asks as he jumps to get to him before everyone else. "Miss Cromwell is fine, she and the baby girl are stable. Her blood pressure went up which caused her to faint. I'm going to recommend bed rest until the baby gets here to avoid any possible complications." The doctor says and one could see and feel the worry melt off of our backs. "Did you talk to her? Did she remember anything? Is that why she had the crisis?" Richard asked as I stepped back and took Alex to my side wrapping my hand around her, keeping her close. Perhaps it wasn't the right moment but being able to hold her in public gave me a sense of power I never had before. "We talked for a brief moment and she described to me what happened, all the excitement of the wedding and the events that happened after took a toll on her, but she remains not remembering the past." We listen as the doctor talks and Alex smiles. We didn't care about the memories so much anymore. Autumn was alright

"What happened?" Richard yells as he runs to Autumn's side, almost crushing down at the site of her unconscious body in Domenic's hands. "I'm so sorry... I didn't think..." Rachel said as she watched what her words caused. "What did you do?" Richard asks her with fury in his eyes but Rachel only stares at Autumn in shock while Leo does the best he can to hold on to her. "Help is on its way!" Alex yells as she comes back and sticks to my side. Her hands are cold as they slip into mine. I wasn't sure if it was from the cold or from the situation that was in front of us with both Autumn and Sasha. "Dont wait. Get her in the car and drive to the hospital. I'll go with you and make sure they take good care of her." My dad says as he helps Richard stand up and move away from Autumn. Domenic lifts her in the air, and her veil falls down onto the floor. The sight was heartbreaking, this day turned out to be everything but perfect. First Alice, now this. I just hope it doesn't get any wo

Miguel jumps at Alice, grabbing her hand while the other guy manages to take the gun from her, ultimately pinning her to the ground when Alex pulls me back as the rest of the family gets up and gathers up at the front. “Let go of me, I'm not done yet!” Alice yells as she struggles to free herself but to no use as Miguel ties her hand to her back. “It's over Alice, it's finally over. You won't be able to hurt us ever again.” Domenic says as he presses Autumn to his side while Miguel lifts Alice, her hands pinned at her back. “Take her to the security room and call the police. She won't escape this time, not on my watch.” Richard says while rubbing Autumn's shoulder, trying to make sure she is ok. She look pale, shook but somewhat alright. She held onto Domenic the same way Alex didn't let go of my hand all this time. “He is lying to you, everyone is…” Alice says but Miguel drags her away. She was trying to do damage to the last second she could use. So much haterade in such a s

I always found weddings to be beautiful, yet this one was special. This was about my friend, someone who I knew would always be in my life, but I somehow knew that from the day I met her. Now sitting here, watching the smile on her face as she stared at the face of her loved one, the man she chose yet again despite every odd, despite not knowing the past. A path she chose solely based on what she felt within herself, and that was love. I had my doubts about it, I had my doubts about Domenic... the things I knew about their past, the things I didn't share with anyone else, not Alex, not Richard... I saw the regret in his eyes, I saw the pain but I also saw the love... and I wish them happiness. The same one I wished for myself and the woman who was sitting next to me right now. My love.

"Adam, where the hell were you? We are going to be late and you still haven't changed." Mom yells at me as soon as I step through the door. "I had some business to take care of. Dont worry I'll be ready in time." "Business, on a day like this one." Mom asks, her nad on her hip and eyebrow raised scepticly. "You look great by the way, where is Dad? You should go check he doesn't get something on his suit before we have to leave... I'll go shower now, bye." I manage to ramble up and run upstairs to get ready. Luck had it that Rosie had already got my clothes ready and waiting for me on the bed so I showered, got my hair ready, and got dressed just as a text came for me letting me know Derek was booked and taken care of. One more reason to party. ... "See, there was no reason for all that rushing. I had plenty of time to finish my meal." Dad said as we got out of the car at the Cromwell mention.
