Who knew that Sebastian and Lucas could cook, Natalie and Scarlett didn't believe it until they saw it with their own two eyes. After they entered the kitchen the boys swung into action helping their mother cook, when Scar politely asked if they could help out she bluntly but politely declined and instead, asked them to help her husband who was arranging the table outside so that's where they went. Nat was curious about the whole waiting from outside and couldn't stop herself from asking. "Is it possible for me to ask you something, Mr. Ashford?"Seb's Dad looked up to Nat, from afar he seemed very but once you got closer and saw the warmth on his features you'd melt. "Of course, don't be afraid to.""Why have dinner from outside and not inside?" She asked, finally feeling relieved.He warmly smiled at her, "You'll see, I wouldn't want to ruin the surprise.""Oh, so there's like a hidden meaning to it, alright, I'm anticipating. '' Nat was intrigued by what surprise he was talking a
After dessert, the men were ordered by Mrs. Ashford to do the dishes and it was cute how they didn't bother protesting, it seemed they were afraid of her and never went against her. She was sweet, motherly, and warm but something about her said don't cross her path or be on her bad side, which neither Nat nor Scar were planning on doing. "I want to have a chat with you two." Mrs. Ashford said getting both girls' attention. "Sure, we can do that," Scar said, and Seb's Mom motioned for them to follow her to a swing right there in the backyard. They sat opposite each other, Nat and Scar on one swing and her on another. They stayed in a comfortable silence for a few seconds before Mrs. Ashford spoke up. "I found out about what my son, " She paused, "My sons rather, did to you and honestly speaking I'm ashamed, I know I raised them better and what they did was uncalled for.""I want to apologize on their behalf since you won't hear them out." Then she turned to Scar, "I know after what
After having fun on the bed and jumping around Natalie fell asleep, but Scarlett didn't she kept on thinking about what Seb's mom had said, and it struck deep in her soul, she hated running away, she hated that pained look on his face, she hated the pang in her heart and most of all she hated they were apart, what Mrs. Ash said made her realize a lot of things, why did Seb break up with Harper if he didn't love her, why did he help get her out of the picture after her whole scheming he could have easily used that to his advantage, why did he come to save her from Tony if he didn't care he could have left to Tony and bit care less. The wheels in her head kept on turning, she always saw something in Seb's eyes but didn't know what it was, it was warm and longing. Insomuch as she didn't want to get hurt it was time to finally put an end to this stupid childish behavior, she was mature and had to start acting like it. After finally coming to a decision she decided to go to bed and only
They reached the house and all got out, as they were walking to the front door Scar felt a hand touching hers, she turned her head and noticed that it was Seb, he had a smile on his face and a look of longing in his eyes. "Can we talk, not now but another time when we're just the two of us?" He asked, his heart was full of hope that she'd say yes. That hope didn't go in vain, "Sure, text me the day and time and I'll be there." Scar said, it simply was high time they spoke it over, they needed to bring it to a close. Seb's heart leaped with joy when he heard her response a small part of him thought she would decline and he did. "Alright, thank you, I'm very much looking forward to this," Seb said after letting her go. The girls finally reached their doorstep, "Thank you for the ride, we appreciate it." Nat said in the form of saying goodbye."You don't have to thank us, we should thank you instead for agreeing to come with us." Lucas said, "I guess we'll be leaving now. Enjoy the
Scar stayed silent for a few minutes letting everything sink in, she did as Seb's mom had advised her and throughout the night, she made sure to stare into his eyes, all she could see was sincerity and warmth, the way he looked at her made her melt and gave her butterflies, she wanted to get back together with him but she needed to trust him again. "I want us to get back together but not now, first I need some time so we'll have a trial relationship just for a short time and we'll see where we go with this." Scar eventually spoke up. Seb was a bit disappointed but he didn't mind taking it slow as long as she was happy and as long as she was comfortable he didn't mind. "No problem, I can do that." He said without even wasting any time. A part of her thought he'd say no but he didn't which meant he really wanted this, he wanted to earn her forgiveness and make things work. "How about we have our dinner now?" Seb suggested, his eyes holding a warmth as he gazed at her, he was captiv
A few days had passed after that dinner Sebastian and Scarlett had and the last days had been great, Scar almost completely forgot about all the bad things that had happened.Scar was currently at work, sorting out some files when her phone began to ring, without checking the caller ID she picked it up, "Hello." She said as her attention elsewhere. "Ouch, that hello doesn't sound as enthusiastic as I imagined it would be," Seb said feigning hurt. "I'm sorry, I didn't really look at the caller ID before picking it up. " Scar clarified. "It's alright, what are you doing right now?" He asked. "Just sorting out some file regarding the project." She informed him as she multitasked. "Alright, can I come pick you up later?" He missed her a lot and just wanted to spend time with her. "Sure, that would be great, plus I miss you a lot." She affirmed and was excited about his offer. "Alright, lemme not disturb you, I have a surprise for you and will pick you up in 2 excruciating hours." H
One full month passed like a breeze since Scar and Seb got back together, they didn't even realize it, but time flew, meaning it was also the end of their trial relationship. On a Friday evening Scar was packing her clothes for a cruise she and Seb were going on, as a gift for making it through the trial relationship.Nat and Lucas were supposed to come along with them, but at the last minute decided to do something else, they ended up going to one of The Ashford's farmhouses for the weekend, leaving Scar and Seb on their own. Both ladies had already packed and were just waiting for their boyfriends to arrive. "I'll miss you a lot this weekend." Scar let out as they dragged their luggage outside. "It's just two days, moreover we'll video call," Nat said in response. When they eventually reached the outside they found two cars. Both drivers came out and walked towards the girls. "Mr. Sebastian and Lucas couldn't come and get you because of work and they send their humble apologi
Scar's heart was beating fast and too loudly she swore Seb heard it. When she was coming on this trip, she didn't think it would turn out like this, her heart was overjoyed and she was over the moon and because she wanted to seem calm she didn't squeal but she would when she went back home and was with Nat. Like on cue, Marry You by Bruno Mars was playing, she was impressed by what he pulled up, and noticing that she took a rather long pause she decided to speak up. "Wow, I didn't expect this, " She took in a sharp breath like she'd just won an award and was giving a speech. "Sebastian Ashford, I want nothing more than to become your wife, you bring a little bit of chaos to my quiet world balancing it up, honestly speaking I want to spend this lifetime with you too, so yes, I'll marry you, Mr. Ash."He didn't waste any time and put the ring on her finger, then stood up, carried, and twirled her around, "You've just made me the happiest man in the world." Seb let out his eyes gleamin
