Forever Mine The L word
SarahAunt Norma had made it sound as if there would be a lot of her mom's relatives there. If Sarah had known how things were going to work out, she would have had Angel over.She hadn't been able to stop thinking about his saying he loved her the whole day. She'd wanted so badly to tell him she loved him too, but how could she? How could she sit there and tell him she loved him when she would be leaving him soon and he knew perfectly well it was by choice? She just couldn't do it. As much as hearing him say he loved her had been music to her ears, she almost wished he hadn't. It only made the guilt that much harder to bear."So, what happened?" They drove out of her aunt's driveway. Angel put his hand on her lap, and she wrapped both her hands around it.She took a deep breath, "First of all, all that worrying was for nothing. Most of the relatives who showed up were from my uncle's side, and the few that did show up from my mom's side were very distant relatives. Apparently, all
Forever Mine Officially ALL His
AngelOverwhelmed with such staggering emotions, Angel lay there still inside her. He kissed her temple and then her forehead. He'd felt so many unfamiliar emotions since he'd met Sarah, yet none compared to what he was feeling now.All those times he'd laughed and thought of guys with girlfriends as fools. How any guy could be satisfied with just one girl had been unimaginable to him. Now here he was, looking at Sarah, knowing without a doubt he'd never be satisfied with anyone else but her.From that very first day when he'd looked into her haunting eyes, she'd captured something in him. He'd stupidly thought getting to know her would be enough. He'd been taken in by her wounded eyes, her infectious laugh, and her stubborn determination, and without warning, he'd been brought to his knees.He kissed her temple breathlessly. "You're mine, Sarah."She nodded gazing into his eyes as she traced her fingers down his back.There was no way he could let her out of his life now. The th
Forever Mine When I'm Gone
AngelAs usual, Angel's heart raced at the sight of Sarah. He kissed her as soon as she got in the car. It was supposed to be a friendly hello kiss, but unable to restrain himself, he kissed her passionately until someone in the back seat cleared his throat. Sarah pulled away immediately and turned around. Romero, Eric, and Sofia were crammed in the backseat."I didn't see you guys." Her scandalized expression when she saw them surprised him. This wasn't the first time he was ravenous for her in front of them."My bad." Angel smirked, pulling out of the driveway. "I forgot anyone was back there.""I was just talking to you before she got in the car, ass," Romero protested.Angel chuckled, lacing his fingers into Sarah's and placing their hands together on his lap. Sarah stared straight ahead, a bit too rigid. He wasn't sure what to make of it. He hoped she wasn't mad.The ride to the bowling alley was a fairly quiet one, except for Romero protesting about the music. Angel hit the
Forever Mine Operation Tell Him The Truth
Sarah was alarmed when she saw the time on her clock. Her cell phone was ringing, and it wasn't even 6 A.M. Who'd be calling this early? She reached over and looked at her phone. It was Sydney. She flipped it open not sure what to expect."Hello?""Hey, Lynni." He sounded calm enough."Everything okay?""Yeah," he said. "Sorry for calling so early. I couldn't sleep.""Why? What's wrong?" In all the years she'd known him, she knew the only times he couldn't sleep were when he was stressing about something. She sat up and plopped a pillow behind her."Nothing's wrong."Sarah knew that tone. "Sydney, you're stressing about something. You should know better than to try and hide it from me."There was silence on the other end then a sigh. "I can't stop thinking about you and Angel," he said. "Are you sure you're going to be okay coming back here?"Sarah frowned. It had been over two weeks since she and Angel had made love for the first time. She kept it from Sydney for a while, not
Forever Mine Wicked Curveball
SarahSarah he started getting ready just after five. Valerie helped her with her hair. Sarah's hair was fairly straight, but Valerie said straightening it even more would make it look extra sleek and super sexy.Sarah watched Valerie through the bathroom mirror as she concentrated on the flat iron she held in Sarah's hair. "So how was it last night with Alex? You two looked real chummy."Valerie glanced up at the mirror and shrugged. She continued concentrating on Sarah's hair. "I think he turned his phone off or put it on vibrate 'cause it didn't go off once last night. I tried to resist him as long as I could, but it's so damn hard. I didn't sleep with him though. I told him I'm not doing that anymore. So he asked if it was because of Reggie. I told him, 'No, it's because it hurts too much.' Then he made a stupid joke apologizing for his size."Valerie's expression was disgusted, but Sarah couldn't help laughing. Alex was too funny."Stop," Valerie said. "You're gonna make me b
Forever Mine I'd NEVER Abandon You
SarahSarah was both shocked and overwhelmed with joy when she saw Sydney. She hadn't realized how much she'd missed him until she felt the emotion in his hug.She had had so many questions for him she almost forgot Angel was going to be there any minute. She'd felt so rotten having to lie the way she had. But she knew there was no way Angel was ready to meet Sydney—not like this. It would be a slap in the face. She needed to explain everything to both of them before she could have them meet.This whole mess was her fault, and now it threatened to blow up in her face. After being a nervous wreck all day, she now felt on the verge of a meltdown.Sydney said he wanted to talk to her, and she had a feeling it wasn't going to be a short conversation. The only places she knew were places Angel had taken her. All of which were frequented by everyone from school.There was no way she was taking him to her and Angel's special place. So she decided to go to a place further down the beach w
Forever Mine Busted
Angel stood still for a moment. He knew it couldn't be, but Romero sounded so convinced. He took in what he'd just heard, then shook his head and started walking again. "Nah, dude," he said. "She's babysitting for her neighbors right now.""Call her then," Romero said.Romero's dogged tone made him uncomfortable. He was so sure. Angel stood quiet for a moment."Did she see you?" What was he doing? This was ridiculous. There was no way Sarah would be out with another guy. He trusted her."No," Romero said."I didn't see shit!" Eric yelled in the background."Yeah, well, he would've if he didn't drive like a girl. By the time we turned back, they were gone," Romero said.They'd actually gone back to check? Angel picked up the phone at the hostess desk without mentioning it to Romero."So what was she doing?" He dialed Sarah's cell phone number."Talking, I guess," Romero said. "I saw her as we passed the car, and I had to do a double take, but Eric was driving so fast and wouldn
Forever Mine Shit Hits The Fan!
Even as Angel had driven into the parking lot and seen the yellow Impala parked in front of the café, he'd held out hope that this was all one big mistake.He'd parked next to Eric's car where he saw Eric and Romero standing. Eric motioned to the window of the café as Angel approached them.It was her.And she looked unbelievably seductive. She sat there gazing attentively into another guy's eyes. Angel had watched disgusted as she reached across the table and held his hand, and he noticed her cleavage was out there like he'd never seen it before in public.Eric and Romero filled him in on how they spotted the car leaving the beach and followed them to this secluded hole in the wall. Sarah wasn't stupid. She just hadn't counted on dumb and dumber spotting her.Now, standing here staring into her startled eyes, he searched for answers. Her once beautiful green eyes, that normally gazed at him so brightly and with such emotion, were almost gray. And all he saw in them was fear and w

Forever Mine Epilogue
The musicians made their way through the restaurant, taking requests. Sarah sat with her mom, aunt, uncle and Valerie in one of the bigger booths. Angel's parents had thrown a graduation party, so the restaurant was open to guests only.Sarah's mom squeezed her hand, and Sarah smiled. Her mom looked nothing like what she'd looked like when Sarah first visited her in jail. She'd gained weight and looked healthy and vibrant.Her mom had been right there for her during the coach's trial. After Sarah pressed charges, several other girls stepped forward to accuse him of the same thing. All in all, he was tried on several different counts ranging from sexual molestation to attempted rape. But many others testified that he'd acted inappropriately with them as well. It took the jury only two hours to deliberate.He was found guilty, and after all the counts were added up, he'd be doing at least thirty years before he'd even be up for parole. Angel couldn't have been happier. But Sarah could
Forever Mine Starting Anew
Sarah lay there, tracing the engraving on the chain around Angel's neck with her fingers. She glanced at her wrist and smiled at the charm bracelet. She'd taken it off and refused to even look at it the entire time they were broken up. She almost mailed it to him, when she'd lost all hope. Something in her heart wouldn't let her, and she was glad now she hadn't.After a week of being back together, they still couldn't get their fill of each other. Angel had made sure he closed the restaurant every night ever since, and Sarah was right there with him each night. She wondered if his parents had any idea of the things they did in that back room.Angel lifted himself up on his elbow and played with her hair. "How'd you get so close?" He stared in her eyes. "You and Syd?"Ever since they'd been back together, Sarah made it a point to keep any talk of Sydney to a minimum, and up until now, Angel really hadn't asked too much. She knew once the dust settled it would be coming, and now here
Forever Mine I Love You, Angel.
Angel skidded to a stop when he realized it was the coach he'd just seen running up the trail. But he was alone. Where was Sarah? He looked down the trail. Maybe she'd fallen behind. Would the idiot really leave her alone?Eric and Romero had eagerly volunteered to help him find Sarah and were driving around the park as well. He texted Eric to let them know he'd found them and where.Angel peered through his rearview mirror and saw the coach turn into the parking lot he'd just passed up. The rain was beginning to come down harder now. He put the car in reverse and backed up fast.The tires screeched as he turned into the parking lot and saw Sarah talking to the perv next to his car. He was too close to her, and her stance seemed defensive. Angel pulled up next to them, turned off the car, and jumped out.Sarah's expression crumbled when she saw him, and she hurried to him. His fist tightened, and he was immediately between Sarah and the coach."What happened? What's wrong?" he ask
Forever Mine We Both Want This
Sarah looked up at him."I mean first love."She hadn't really thought of it that way. But he was. No other boy had even come close to the way she felt about Angel. And she had an aching feeling that no one ever would.She nodded and turned her attention to her water. "It was my fault." She took a small sip. "I was really stupid."Sarah stood up. The pain was still so raw she was afraid she might get all sentimental. But the coach grabbed her hand and pulled her back."Come here. It's okay." He spoke softly. His words were kind, and his touch felt warm. Except for the night of the awful scene and the day she went to see her mom, all the times she'd cried for Angel, she'd done it alone in her room. Sydney was usually on the other end of the phone, but she still couldn't help feeling alone.She sat back down next to him. He kept her hand in his and spoke to her, looking directly in her eyes. "Listen, you don't have to talk about it. But you're a beautiful girl, Sarah, not just on the
Forever Mine Ready to Kill
Angel was supposed to just drop Sofia off at the restaurant but ended up hanging out and helping out. That happened a lot lately. He had nothing better to do, and the last thing he wanted was to sit around the house dredging up painful memories.Eric and Romero stopped by to grab breakfast. They sat in the bar area that normally wasn't open that early in the morning, but the restaurant was pretty busy, and Alex told them he didn't want them taking up space in the dining room. Romero had snorted that he was a paying customer but shut up when Alex told him to pay his tab.After showing a few more patrons to their tables, Angel walked over to where Romero and Eric ate. They were talking about going to watch some extreme fighting later that evening. Romero's uncle's friend was promoting it, and he could get free tickets. Angel considered it. He hadn't gone out since he'd broken up with Sarah.He was trying to snap out of the nasty mood he'd been in lately, but knowing Sarah was spending
Forever Mine Just Me & Him
Friday morning Angel sat in the kitchen going over last night's Spanish homework. After switching his schedule around to get out of his physics class, he got stuck with the same Spanish teacher as the previous semester. At the time he hadn't cared. All he could think of was getting out of seeing Sarah every day. Now he was seriously regretting it. The amount of homework this lady packed on was unreal.Alex was fixing himself a protein drink when Sofia walked in. "So, dad said if one of you can come into the restaurant for me tomorrow morning I can take the morning off.""I'll go in," Angel said, without looking up from his homework."Where you gonna be?" Alex asked.Sofia stuck her head in the refrigerator and said something Angel couldn't make out."Where?" Alex asked again."Running with the team." She poured herself a glass of orange juice.Angel looked up. Sofia avoided looking at him. "On a Saturday?""Ah huh." She pulled out the toaster and plugged it in.Angel frowned.
Forever Mine The Invitation
Sarah's trip to see her mom went smoothly. Seeing her was still as emotional as the first visit. But things felt brighter. Her mom still hadn't been to court, but the lawyers were even more optimistic about her chances of getting out early, and Sarah could see the change in her mom's appearance. The dark circles and deep eyes were still there but not as pronounced as before. And there was a sparkle in her eyes that made Sarah feel very hopeful.Her mom gave her something to really think about just before she left."Sarah, I want you to know that I think you've been through enough. When I get out of here, it's up to you where you wanna stay. I don't have a job here in Flagstaff anymore, but if this is where you want to be, I'll find a way to make it work. Otherwise, if you'd rather stay in California, your aunt has offered to let us stay there until I get back on my feet. You think about it and let me know."The choice seemed obvious. The only reason she'd want to stay in La Jolla di
Forever Mine Worsening Rumors
Playing pool with the guys always helped Angel relax. This was the first time Eric had come over since New Year's. Alex and Sofia were both working the restaurant but would be home soon. Angel wasn't too sure if having Eric there was a good idea. He had talked to Alex briefly about Eric not being to blame, but Alex was dead set against having him around Sofia when no one was around. Angel hoped that didn't mean he'd make a scene even if everyone was around.It had been another slow bitter weekend for Angel. His mind was on the usual, and it was getting real irritating. Being that close to Sarah on Friday made him realize he wasn't even close to being over her. Her resentment toward him had confused him. He was the one that had gotten duped. Did she really expect him to just accept another guy in her life? That wasn't happening. Though being that close to her for the first time in so long made it tempting to accept anything just to be with her.He knew better though. Having to deal wi
Forever Mine Please Tell Me You See It
Sarah didn't think there was any part of her heart left to break. She was so angry at herself for crying. Why did he still have so much power over her? It was pathetic the way her entire body went into a frenzy from just seeing him.Being that close to him had such an overwhelming effect on her. She couldn't hold in what she was feeling, but his obvious contempt for her now was undeniable. He didn't even care why she was still here.She tried desperately to shake it off on the ride home. Talking to Coach Rudy about her mom was one thing, but telling him about Angel would be quite another. Sydney would be the first to point that out.She was quiet most of the way, and he finally asked. "Are you okay?"Sarah nodded but didn't offer anything."You don't have to tell me about it," he said. "Just hope you know, even though it feels like you won't right now, you'll get over him eventually. I promise."He always knew exactly what to say. Sarah had always thought it was just a coach thin
