Family dinner
~ Roxy’s POV ~
Things started to be more stressful at the hospital. I had four interns that I needed to supervise. It was really stressful and Cole was starting to annoy me. Since we got back from Texas he had been avoiding me. I had to know why he is avoiding me. If I have done something wrong I deserve to know what it is.
“Cole, why are you avoiding me?” I asked as I marched in his bathroom.
“Roxy, I am taking a shower do you mind. How did you get in here?”
“You gave me a copy of your apartment key. And so what if you are naked it’s not like I haven’t seen it before.” I stated pissed at him.
“What the hell do you want?” He replied, annoyed at me.
“You have been hiding from me and it is starting to piss me off. Everything has been stressful at work and I don’t have anyone to talk with.” I replied, annoyed with his response.
“I am not your fucking best fr
Go after her~ Roxy’s POV ~I can’t believe that the ER would be so dull. I volunteered to take the night shift to keep me busy. But there were no accidents or any life shattering emergencies. I would be heartless to wish that someone needs a surgeon at this hour. My mind keeps thinking back to the argument I had with Cole.I wanted to be with him. I think it is time for me to lower down my guard. Who was I kidding about agreeing to not having sex with him? I am attracted to him and I will be damned if I keep my promise. I am totally not good at keeping my promises but it would be harder for me to keep my panties up around him.I finished my shift at the hospital and decided to see Cole. I have decided to take whatever relationship we had to the next level. I may not be in love with him but I am pretty sure that I am attracted to him as much as he is attracted to me. I will have him. Cole Emm
Ryan ~ Roxy’s POV ~ Since it was my day off I decided to not to sleep and binge watch some movies. It was almost five in the afternoon. I was very excited when I heard a knock from my front door. I hurriedly opened the door and was so shocked to see the person who was standing in front of me. “Hi, stranger.” Ryan smiled at me sweetly. “Hey, what are you doing here?” I asked confused by his presence. “Wouldn’t you let me in? Would you rather we talk here in the hallway?” He replied playfully. “I’m sorry. I wasn’t expecting you at all. Please, come in.” I stated and looked at his luggage he was carrying. “How did you know where I live?” “I went to the hospital and asked for your address.” He replied as he sat down on the couch. “Wow! I didn’t realize that they would just give away my address to anyone.” I blurted out, surprised. “They didn’t give it away easily.
Making up ~ Roxy’s POV ~ I can’t believe that Cole actually showed up. I may have found a way to not go out with Ryan. I mean, I was just being nice when I accepted his invitation but Cole is here. I honestly would prefer his company over anyone else. I don’t know why but I just want to be with him. I can talk to Ryan about the proposal some other time. “Hey, Ryan I’m sorry but I think we should do a rain check on our dinner.” I said apologetically. “Is that your boyfriend?” He asked. “I wish. Honestly, I do not have any idea. I don’t know but he acts like one. We’re kind of dating.” I replied havinga hardtime explaining what my relationship with Cole reall
Can this be love ~ Roxy’s POV ~ I had no idea what came to Cole’s mind. Is he being serious? He wanted me to be his girlfriend. I am all fuzzy and warm inside. But the thing is he wants me to be certain that I love him. I honestly don’t have any idea what love truly is. My past relationships seem to be nothing related to love. It was just me being wild and adventurous with the men I got involved with. Now, here he is asking me to figure out the impossible. I don’t even know if I was capable of loving another person since in my existence I never thought anybody loved me at all. “Your silence is making me nervous.” Cole stated as we were in the elevator on our way to our apartments. “I
Meeting Charlotte ~ Roxy’s POV ~ I can see the sincerity in Cole's intention and it makes my heart flutter. He knows exactly what words to say and his actions actually support it. I was so excited to finally meet Charlotte, I have heard so much about her. Perhaps, Cole asking me to be his girlfriend is not such a bad idea. I am scared to put my heart on the line but I would be regretting it if I don't give us a chance. "Good morning, Charlotte." Cole greeted heras we got in her office. "Good morning, what brings you here?" She asked without looking at us. "Don't tell me Stan refused to give you the money and youwant me to talk to him." "I am actually with someone whom I have been dyingfor you to meet." Cole replied happily so Charlotte looked up and saw us. "Oh, hi there." She immediately walked towards us. "Is she who Ithink she is?" She stated excitedly
The proposal ~ Roxy’s POV ~ Cole and I went to the restaurant to eat before I head back to the hospital. If Charlotte wasn’t there I would have not mind Cole kicking Jonathan’s ass. Charlotte asked me to change Cole which is really not something I want to do. I can see it in him that he can change on his own. Maybe I just need to encourage him. “Is there a problem? You seem quiet.” Cole asked as we were eating. “I was just thinking about what Jonathan said earlier.” I admitted. “Don’t let that jerk ruin our day, honey. Forget what he said.” “He mentioned about money…” “Roxy.” He cut me off before I can continue. “I know that you are not after my money. If
Going to Seattle ~ Roxy’s POV ~I decided to go home since I don’t have any plans for the day. I smiled when I saw Cole and Stacey carrying some flowers, balloons and other stuff.“Hey do you guys need a hand.” I stated as I grabbed the flowers from Stacey.“I thought you had a consultation at the hospital.” Cole stated surprised.“He asked my help to set up a surprise for you.” Stacey butted in,smiling at me. “Since you already saw us I think that we should probably stop.”“So this is for me. Thank you.” I replied, smiling at Cole.“I was hoping that I could set it up at my place then have dinner
The operation and the free clinic~ Roxy’s POV ~I headed to Seattle after four days. Cole decided to avoid me since I told him I was leaving. He had flowers and cards sent to me but he never came to see me. I was really upset about not seeing him.“Miss me already?” Cole stated when I answered his call.“You are an asshole. Why are you calling me now?” I replied.“I just want to make sure that you landed safely. I miss you.” He stated.“You were stupid for not seeing me when I was there. I hope that you behave while I'm gone.” I stated playfully.“I can assure you that I am quite busy these days. Uncle Stan agreed to rel
~ Cole’s POV ~I made my way back to Long Island and headed to Jake’s house. I heard them laughing and I felt furious. They were having fun while I was running around like a crazy person looking for Roxy. These people whom I call friends are having fun and chose to ignore me.“What the hell is wrong with you people?” I yelled angrily when I saw them eating happily. “What is this, some kind of payback for me telling you guys that I’d chose Roxy over any of you guys?”“Calm down, Mr. Sinclair.” Roxy stated and I froze in place staring at her. “I ask them not to inform you that I came here to see you. I needed time to compose myself before I tell you what I needed to tell you.”“Honey, why didn’t you just call me? I could have just headed to where you were at and you shouldn’t have to come here.” I exclaimed after I got over my initial shock.
~ Roxy’s POV ~I was staring at my luggage after Andrea left. Everything that she told me made me think about the things that had happened since I left Cole. I was telling the truth when I told her that nothing was changing my mind about being with Cole. I can’t be with him for now. I have to do something before I leave.“Hey, are you all set up?” My father asked.“Yes, I am done packing. I already called the driver and he is going to pick me up in a few minutes.” I replied.“I can’t help but overhear your conversation with Cole’s ex-wife. Are you not really going to hear him out?” He asked me seriously.“Nothing is going to change my mind. I am not getting back with Cole. I meant what I said. Cole and I are over. What Andrea told me made me realize that I have to do something really important that I have been avoiding for years.”“What do
Finding her~ Cole’s POV ~When I found out that Roxy was staying with his father I went over to his house but nobody was there. I called Dr. Ressler but he wasn’t ready to hear me out and just told me to he don’t want anything to do with me. They were staying at a different place. I was headed to see her when Andrea called.“Cole, I talked with Roxy and she’s leaving.”“What do you mean you talked to her? How did you even find her?”“Cole, she is going to leave and head back to her medical mission. I explained everything to her but she told me that it doesn’t change anything. She already made her decision about leaving. She was alre
Confrontations~ Roxy’s POV ~I can’t believe what was happening. I looked at my dad sitting at the bedside of Anita. She was intubated and they all agreed to pull the plug of her life support today. I was really surprised when I saw my step sister, Jane, when I got the food I had delivered. She was living next door.She explained to me what happened. After I left my father sold out some of his assets to pay for the hospital funds. He explained to my siblings that they can no longer have the same lifestyle and they were okay with it. Anita got depressed and got into an accident and today they decided that it was time to let her go.“Hi dad.” I greeted him.“Roxan
They just can't stay mad~ Cole’s POV ~I can’t believe that Evgeni would actually pull the whole mafia thing on me. Nobody was willing to help me find Roxy. I was positive that she was still in New York. There was no way Evgeni could have sneaked him out of the city. He left to fly back to Russia before telling me that no one in their right mind would help me find Roxy.I ended up feeling upset that I couldn’t find her. I feel useless, especially now that my friends obviously hated me. I can’t even go see Blair. I wanted to visit her after hearing that she was taken to the hospital but I partly blame myself for it. They have always had my back but I guess we are on our separate way
I hate you but still love you~ Andrea’s POV ~It’s been three days since Cole left. Blair was back home from the hospital. None of them talked about what happened. Everyone was being nice and considerate of me but I can’t take all their sympathy. They seem pretty convinced that Cole and Roxy are the real culprit.My conscience is killing me. For the past few days, I realized that I put myself in this situation. I mean, Cole and I both agreed to the idea but it was my idea. I wanted to take a chance on him. I proposed the whole marriage shenanigans and now all his friends hate him. They didn’t even tell him about Blair and I know how much Blair means to him. We were having dinner at J
~ Roxy’s POV ~I wanted to sleep but I couldn't. I was exhausted but my mind kept me awake most of the evening. This is going to be rough. I don’t know how I can face my friends again. They hated me for sure. I had no way to redeem myself. I just have to go and not be involved with Cole again. I ended things with him."We have a problem." Claire informed me the next day when she got to my room."What is it?" I asked worriedly."I tried to rebook our flight for today and apparently you can't travel out of New York. It states that you are banned to leave the city.""Shit. I forgot that I was trying to escape a billionaire. He can control this. He can make sure that I stay here." I stated annoyed. "We should have driven out of New York yesterday.""This is not right. He can't hold you here. We have to do something.""We can't do anything until Monday. We have to be smart in dealing with this."
Cat is out of the bag (part 3) ~ Andrea’s POV ~ Blair embraced me when I watched Cole carrying Leo to our house. I can’t believethat I did allthat. I never wanted to kill anyone in my life but I wanted Roxy to die. Blair asked Jake to cancel the party. She wasn’t feeling well after what happened. I felt bad that I ruined the day for them. “I’m sorry. I just went crazy.” I stated crying as we were in the living room. “It’s perfectly understandable.” Blair replied. “I almost killed Sheila because I was jealous due to false gossip. This isn’t gossip. They both played as allofus. I can't believe that they fooled us.” “I am moving back to Canada with Le
Cat is out of the bag (part 2) ~ Cole’s POV ~ “He travelled halfway around the world to date me. I’ll be stupid not to give it a shot.” Roxy stated before kissing Robert’s cheeks. “Oh please get a room.” Claire stated and we all started laughing. “Can I have a word with you?” I stated seriously at Roxy. “Cole, I already talked with Uncle Stan and if you have any questions about the case you should talk to him about it.” Roxy replied. “Honey, come on. This is just ridiculous. Stop trying to make me jealous. I know Robert is just your friend and he isn’t your type.” I stated. “Cole, shut up.” Blair stated seriously. “If you want to act stupid, do it somep
