Dear Ex, Come Back With My Baby GUNFIRE
***EASTON'S POV***I let out a sigh the moment the door closed. I didn't mean to act out like that, I just couldn't help but get jealous, seeing Roman so close to my family. I get that he was there for her when I wasn't but now it just feels like he is everywhere.Mirabella might see him as a friend but I know he has feelings for her. The way he looks at her, the way he looks at Alfred, the way he acts so protective around her, he definitely sees her as more than just a close friend.“Daddy, can we get going now? We're going to be late if you keep staring into space like that.” Alfred's voice pulled me out of my thoughts and I smiled at him.“Of course, let's go.” I said and cleared the dining table, and then we left the apartment.“Daddy, why do adults fight a lot when they love each other?” Alfred suddenly asked and I glanced at him from the rear mirror.“What makes you think that?”“You and mommy fight almost all the time you're together.” He responded and I let out a sigh.“Things

***LOGAN'S POV*** “You imbecile!” I snapped as I hit the tip of the gun on one of my idiot men's head, sending him to the ground. “I'm sorry, boss. Please forgive me.” He pleaded and I clenched my fist. “Who told you to fucking shoot at a kid?! I simply said scare Easton a little you fool!” I thundered and he lowered his head to the ground. “I'm sorry, boss. I'm sorry.” “You better pray that man doesn't die or I'll kill you myself!” I yelled before storming into my house. How could they mess up a simple plan like this?! I knew I have gone myself but what's the point of having them if I have to do every fucking thing myself! “How did it go?” I turned around to see Nicole standing by her door. “What do you think?” I asked and continued my way up the stairs. “Judging from the look on your face, I'd say something went wrong?” She asked with a knowing grin. “Just say what's on your fucking mind before I lose my patience.” I responded not stoping until I was back in my study and s

***EASTON'S POV*** I paced back and forth in the waiting room as I awaited news from the doctors. Jerald had been rushed into the emergency operation room and we were yet to hear from them. It's been half an hour now and Sandy had cried herself to sleep on Helen's laps. Alfred looked extremely sad and he just sat there quietly, so quiet that I was beginning to worry something was wrong with him as well. Did he get hurt from the fall somehow? “Easton! Alfred!” I turned around in shock on hearing Mirabella's voice and no, I wasn't hallucinating. She was right there as she rushed towards us, looking a bit disheveled. “Mommy!” Alfred suddenly burst out crying as he ran into Mirabella's arms. “I'm so sorry, sweetheart. I shouldn't have left you alone. Mommy is so sorry.” She cried out as she hugged Alfred as though her life depended on it. “Are you hurt? Does it hurt anywhere?” She asked worriedly as she scrutinized Alfred's body and he shook his head. “Sandy's dad got hurt. He pu

TWO WEEKS LATER***MIRABELLA'S POV***As we watched the priest say a prayer over Jerald's grave, I couldn't stop the tears from streaming down my cheeks. I may not have known him for long, but knowing the fact that Sandy had lost both parents at such a young age really broke my heart.She was standing next to Easton and I and contrary to my expectations, she wasn't crying. She just stood there, silent, as though she didn't fully understand what was going on but I could see she was in pain. Her eyes looked very sad.Easton and I had tried to reach out to any of her extended family members but even after two weeks, we couldn't get a hold of anyone, and so we decided to hold Jerald's burial ourselves.After the ceremony, everyone began trying to comfort Sandy. Most parents from Blakemore Academy had come, including Helen and Gina.“We are so sorry, Little Sandy. Everything is going to be alright, okay?” Helen said to Sandy as she forced back her tears but the little one just stared at He
Last Updated : 2024-12-22Dear Ex, Come Back With My Baby LONG TIME NO SEE
***EASTON'S POV*** I couldn't help but smile as I stared at Mirabella's sleeping face. She looked so calm and angelic at that moment and I found myself tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear. She had fallen asleep on the couch last night and I carried her to her room, but after placing her on the bed, she insisted that I stay back. I felt a strange feeling as I watched her slumber peacefully with her head resting on my left arm. This is probably the first time we have slept so close to each other and it just felt so right. I wanted to wake up like this every morning, greeted by her angelic face but I knew that would have to wait. I needed to get to the bottom of this, or I fear we won't be able to live our lives normally otherwise. I gently pulled my hand away from her head and she stirred in her sleep, turning towards the opposite side of the bed which gave me the opening to pull free without waking her up. I picked up my coat from the table before quietly leaving the room.

***MIRABELLA'S POV***I slowly opened my eyes as I ran my hand through the other side of the bed but it was empty. “Easton?” I called drowsily as I forced myself up but the room was empty.I clearly remembered falling asleep in his arms... Thinking about that now, I found myself blushing like a teenager who had just found out her crush likes her.I shook my head, getting rid of all thoughts and I went into the bathroom to have a bath.I walked into the living room after and froze on the sight that welcomed me.“Surrender now, villain!” Sandy yelled as she pointed her plastic toy sword at Roman.“Spider man and wonder woman saved the day again!” Alfred beamed and Roman pretended to have fainted.I chuckled, making my presence known to them.“Mommy, did you see that?!” Alfred beamed the moment he saw me.“I saw how handsome you look in your spider man outfit.” I responded and he giggled when I ruffled his hair.“It's good to see you're having fun too, Sandy.” I stated with a smile and

***LOGAN'S POV***“Why do you have a picture of my family?” She asked, her gaze firm as she awaited my response. At first I panicked a bit but then I realized that it doesn't change anything whether or not she finds out. She was in my home, and I had the upper hand. I know I said I would save her for last, but if things go sideways, then I might just start with her.“I mean, no offense but you do realize you're from a well known family right? Of course images of you would be loaded on the Internet.” I said in a playful manner as I walked up to her and took the photo from her.“So you printed it off the Internet? Why?” She asked again and I let out a light chuckle.“I was curious. I mean I was fascinated by you the moment I saw you, and yes I'll admit I shamefully stalked your photos online but I promise I have no ill intentions.” I responded and she furrowed her brows, as though not believing a word.“But this isn't why you came all the way to see me, is it? And I know you also didn'

Everything has been settled and now it was time for the court hearing and the final stage which would determine whether or not Sandy would be ours or get sent to an orphanage.“All rise.” We heard the bailiff announce and the courtroom fell silent as Judge Thompson entered before taking her seat.Easton and I as well as Roman, took our places at the petitioner table.“This court is now in session.

Judge Thompson said, and Roman stood up from his seat.“Thank you, Your Honor.

Dear Ex, Come Back With My Baby THE KISS
~SANDY~ I ruffled my hair, feeling a bit frustrated. I pushed all thoughts of Alfred at the back of my mind as I came out of the bathroom. “Long time no see.” I froze on hearing that familiar masculine voice and slowly turned my head towards my bed. I widened my eyes in shock on seeing Alfred comfortably lying on my bed. “Alfred! What the hell are you doing in my room?!” I snapped as I tightened my grip on my towel. He sat up on the bed and turned to me, and I didn't fail to notice how his gaze raked over my body but his expression remained blank. “I figured you wouldn't come to see me so I decided to take the initiative.” He replied while staring intently at me. If only he knew the effect those hazel-green eyes had on me. Why did he have to show up now of all times? “Alfred, get out of my room.” I said, trying to be as calm as possible, however I didn't move an inch from where I stood. I dared not move for the fear of tripping and dropping my towel. “You have never had a

He's not even around and your locker is still flooding with love letters.” Hailey, my best friend said and let out a sigh. “It's not like he ever reads them.” I responded as I brought out my sports wear, putting it in my bag before stacking the letters back into my locker. “It must be stressful having such a hot brother.” Hailey remarked with a smirk but I understood exactly where she was going with that. “It's too early, Hailey.” I said with a sigh as I began walking towards the changing room with Hail

I can't remember when last I had this much fun.” I squeaked and Easton chuckled. “I'll run you a bath and then we could call it a night.” He said and I frowned slightly. “Call it a night?” “You must be exhausted from our tour. And it's really late, so I think —” “I think we should both take a shower. How about that?” I said with a smirk and Easton chuckled. “You still think you can handle it?” He asked as he closed the space between us, wrapping his arms possessively around my waist. “Try me.” I responded, holding his gaze. He smirked as he slowly leaned down, connecting our lips. He cupped my face with one hand as he kissed me tenderly, nibbing and

It was his sixth birthday today and we had all gathered to cheer him on.“Go on, Alfred.

He has been coming here for over a month now even when I kept putting him off.“Do you think I get paid enough to be a messenger? Just see the man already so he can stop coming here!” The guard snapped and I slowly got up from my head.“Fine.” I responded and he opened my cell. He led me towards the phone booth and I reluctantly took a seat, picking up the phone.“What do you want, Lionel?” I asked, trying my best not to roll my eyes at his pitiful face.“I came to check up on you.” He responded and I scoffed.“Shouldn't you be more worried about your other children? They did get hurt after all.” I said with a scoff."If you're concerned about them, then know that they are fine. It's been almost two months since the whole incident, and everyone has moved on. I'm hoping you would too."I scoffed at his words.
