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

    "Normally I would ask if this was really necessary, but knowing the circumstances this seems like the right course of action." I say as I stand next to Dominican on the porch while we watch his man install security cameras around the house."Since you insisted on not returning to my place, we have to make yours more safe." He says as the sounds of the drill make me shut my eyes, I hate loud buzzing sounds. "So we installed the alarm and the cameras, that pretty much settles it." As soon as I say this Domenic removes his hand from my back and stands before me. His face tells me he has more in store for me."I know you don't like the idea of being followed but I'm not ok with you walking around unprotected so I rehired your bodyguard." He lifts up his hand and the man steps out of the car and starts walking towards us."Not this again." I would feel safer with this guy but I'm sure he will report everything to Domenic and right now I had things I needed to do without him knowing. "Autu

    "Oh my God, this is crazy. Does Dominic know about this?" I say as I look at the pictures of a burned woman's hair, the woman Alice set on fire in her sleep in college."No one knows about this, there's no record of this happening. The Moore family probably had it erased if it was ever even filed." Summer said as she covered the pictures because she couldn't look at them anymore. "Then how did you get them if there's nothing on the record?" I ask as Summer takes a sip of water and sits back on the couch."The girl's sister went to school with me, I was talking to her the other day and when I mentioned Alice was back she reluctantly told me what happened, that's not all. Alice did all kinds of things to a lot of girls who got close to Domenic. She even told me that all this time she was away supposedly on a vacation her father actually put her in therapy but her mother got her out." So we are dealing with a crazy person, how nice- She progresses from putting people on fire in their sl

    I push past Alice and get into the apartment throwing my bag on the fucking floor by Domenic's feet and he just nearly moves to avoid it. The next thing coming of me is my jacket because I have a feeling I'm gonna need all of my flexibility to pull out all of the extensions from her head."What the hell is going on Domenic and explain quickly because I'm all out of patience." I say as my jacket meets the floor behind me and I push it aside with my leg as I stare at him. "I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here." Alice said as she walked towards Domenic putting a hand on his shoulder to which I raised my eyebrows."No, what the hell Alice? When, how did you get in here?" Domenic pushed her from his side and moved toward me. "Baby I swear I have no idea what's going on here." He tries to touch me but I move back my eyes still fixed on Alice. "Alice tell her." He barked at her, angrily demanding for her to speak."What do you want me to say Nick, that this is the first time we

    I walked back into the living room and Domenic came to hug me wrapping me tightly into his embrace. "Thank you baby, for trusting me." Dominic said softly, his voice velvety and smooth against my ear as I relaxed against his hard chest."I'm not gonna lie, I did doubt you for a moment." I say and he backs off to look me in the eyes but his hands remain on mine. "You did?" Domenic asks with a dose of disappointment and sadness to my words."I'm sorry but you've been hiding things from me and I don't like it Domenic. It's the secrets that a bad person like Alice can use against us. Luckily for you, I know just how bat-shit crazy she is. Otherwise you'd be in a serious problem right now." Domenic nods his head as he fasteners the towel around his waist then walks over to the table and flips the pictures so he wouldn't have to look at them. "You think she cut the brakes on Leo's car, don't you?" I don't think, I know she did. Maybe not personally but with the money she has a call is eno

    "Honey, come on get up." I say to Domenic for the third time as I come from the bathroom and he is still lying in bed."Why can't we just order in some food and stay here tonight?" He grumps into his pillow and then sits up as the sheat drops reviling his bare chest."We agreed we would be staying at my place from now on." walk over to the bed and take the hair band from the night dresser as Domenic grabs me and pulls me down onto him. "I know what we agreed, but it could be a one-time thing since we are already here." He says as he moves my hair from my face gathering it all in his hands behind my neck. "Besides I have an early meeting and you said you have to take care of some things Anthony asked you for the restaurant and all of that is closer from here." He does make a valid point, but I was already getting so used to sleeping in my house again nevertheless I'd rather be where he is whether it is here or on the moon. "Fine, but only for tonight. Tomorrow we go back to our place.

    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. My Alex. Today wasn't just the start of a new life for Autumn, this was also the day that meant something big for Alex and me. This was the day we would finally stop hiding.

    "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.
