Sylvia's POV

What!?

Is Neville for real right now? Why would she want to do that? I watched as Patrick paced around the room, his hands in his hair, ruffling them.

"I can't let that happen. I'm in New Jersey for Christ's sake. If she tells, I'll got to jail for sure."

I quickly got up and ran towards me, pulling him to face me.

"We won't let that happen. We'll find something, anything."

"When?" He was really agitated now. I gulped, forcing myself to think. What could have killed Alyssa? An idea popped into my head and I went to quickly grab a coat.

"Where are you going?" Patrick asked.

"If we stay here, we won't find anything. You know Alyssa's house, right?"

"Yes. Why?"

"We need to know the kind of ailment Alyssa had first. And there's only one person who can tell us that. "

"Who?"

"Her parents." I announced. Patrick's eyes widened in shock.

"No... I can't go there..." He began to say.

"Patrick, it's Alyssa's parents or jail. Which do you prefer?"

    Sylvia's POVIt was time to go back. We had exhausted their days in New Jersey, and everything had been sorted out. Patrick no longer had to carry the guilt of him being responsible for Alyssa's death. I smiled as I remembered all that we did in New Jersey. Although we didn't have sex, the make-out enough was pretty fiery. I never knew Patrick was such a good kisser. How many girls did he try that on??Just before we left, Neville and I talked."Guess you're the lucky one?" She had asked. I glanced at Patrick, who was talking with Alyssa's parents before nodding."Did you have a crush on him too?" She asked."Uh... No. My crush was with someone else." I replied."Anyway, congratulations. I'm sorry for bothering you guys. I didn't know any better.""It's okay. I'm glad we have it all sorted out." I replied."Have a nice trip back." She said and walked away. Patrick came to join me soon after."What were you guys talking about?" He asked."Nothing. She just wished us farewell.""Well th

    Patrick's POV"Hello? Hello!?" I whispered furiously into the phone, but I heard no reply. What's going on? Why did Sylvia is sound like that?Hurrying out of my class, I made my way out of school when I accidentally bumped into someone. "Sorry..." I mumbled and continued my way, but the person's voice stopped me."Hey? Why the rush?" Alex called after me. I stopped only for a second. "Can you just let me go?" I asked, rushing out. He followed me."What's going on?""I don't know. That's what am about to find out. So if you'll excuse me, there's someone I need to get to." I stated and dashed out of school.***Alex's POVI stared at Patrick's retreating figure, confused. What the hell is going on? Shrugging, I headed to class and sat down, looking around. That's when it hit me. Sylvia isn't around, so is Tasha. And Patrick just ran out of school. I don't know what happened, but whatever it is, I'm having a feeling it's not good. I also excused myself and left the school, going afte

    Alex's POV"What... What did you say?" I repeated, unsure of what I heard the first time. My mom nodded apologetically. "I just heard the news." She replied, her voice shaking." I'm sorry. " I let go of Hazel, bowling my hands to fists, fighting the overwhelming urge to hit something. No, this can't be true. It can't happen now. Why now! Tears brimmed in her eyes and eventually spilled out, with me breaking down in sobs. I didn't think I'd feel this much pain, but right I know I felt like my heart has been ripped in half. It was too excruciating. My mom wrapped her hands around me, hugging me tightly while I sobbed on her shoulders. "I'm sorry..." she kept saying, patting the back of my head.I closed my eyes tightly, shaking like a little kid as I sobbed out.***Patrick's POVStaring at Sylvia's unconscious face, I kept holding her hands, letting mine wander around her face in a soft gentle caress. She was yet to wake up, although the doctor said that might happen soon. After a w

    Sylvia's POV (few weeks later)Sylvia! Come on downstairs, Patrick's waiting for you! " My mum called out from the kitchen. "Coming, mom! " I replied, and I quickly brushed out my hair. Patrick is such a jerk! Why didn't he tell me he would be taking me out today? It would have been done much faster.Picking up a sweater in case the weather got cold like it's been doing lately, I dashed down the stairs, giving my mum a quick kiss."Bye, mom. I'll see you later." I chirped out before flying out the door. Outside, I met a smirking Patrick who seemed to be enjoying the stunt he pulled. I hurried towards him and slugged him on the arm."Ow... That hurts." He groaned out before grinning. " Good morning Miss. " He greeted."Good morning to you, too." I replied, half frowning."Are you ready?" He asked. I threw a glance at him."Seriously!?" "Sorry... Come on let's go!" Opening the door for me to enter, he went around the car and walked in himself. I waited for him to enter, then smiled u

    Sylvia's P. O. V The alarm had gone off moments ago, but I lay on my bed, staring at the ceiling. Then, remembering what today meant to me, I smiled and jumped out of the bed, doing a happy dance. Today is the first day of my final year in high school!! For someone who has never been excited about school before, this sure is a first. I skipped into the bathroom, beginning my morning rituals. " Good morning Mom." I greeted her a while later, kissing her on the cheeks. " Good morning, dear. How was your night?" " Great. Excited about today. " I replied, serving myself some pancakes and maple syrup she already made. " Who wouldn't be? It's your final year in high school. Oh, my... When did you grow up so quickly?

    Alex. I was in front of my mirror, dressing up for school when I heard a knock on the door. " Come in," I called out, putting on my watch. My mum walked in and came to me, staring at my reflection in the mirror. " I see you're all dressed up. My, you look dashing today. I can't believe you've grown up so well," She said. " Come on, stop with the flatter," I said, and we chuckled. " Head downstairs for breakfast, okay? " She said, and I nodded, walking out of the room. I picked up my bag and strolled downstairs, where I met the rest of them sitting, eating their breakfast. " Good morning." I greeted aloud before settling down for some toast and bacon. " Good morning, son. How was your night?" Edward asked. " Fine. " I mumbled, mouth full. We continued eating in silence till he spoke again. " Alex, Hazel? We have an announcement to make.

    Sylvia. It was lunchtime, and I was with Patrick, who kept discussing while I listened attentively. It was a few days later and everyone was getting excited about it. " They said there'll be other schools attendance. How cool is that?" " Pretty cool..." I replied, sipping down my water. Patrick glanced at me as he ate. " Aren't you excited about the camp?" He asked. " Well, I am. But... I just don't know. It means there'll be a lot of people there. More people are not ready to meet." I replied, whispering the last bit. " Come on. I'm sure it won't be all that hard. Besides, I'll be there the entire time so you don't have to worry about a thing, okay?" " Okay. If you say so," I said, chuckling. Just then, Alex walked past our table with a group of people, mostly girls, around. They seemed to be discussing something funny as they kept laughing out loud. My gaze followed them till they were out of sight before I finally came back to the room. " Penny for your thoug

    Sylvia's P. O. V Three months later, Skyler gave birth to a baby girl who they named Piper. Since I was quite heavy at that time, I was unable to visit them but Patrick video called us to tell us about the experience. Even though he looked quite exhausted, his voice was rich in happiness. I chuckled remembering the things Skyler told us about Patrick while she was in labor. " He screamed more than me in the labor room. The doctor's started looking at us weird at one point!" I recalled, chuckling. " Well, what can I say? We're one weird couple." Patrick said in defense. Skyler chuckled, pulling his cheeks. " How many months left Sylvia?" Skyler asked after we were done laughing. " Three to four months? I'm not so sure. I'm ready whenever he's ready." " You nervous?" She asked and I breathed in, nodding slowly. " Don't worry, you'll be fine." She said and I smiled in gratitude. " Well... We have to go now. Skyler needs to rest, sh

    Skyler's P. O. V. After the proposal, Patrick and I got married. Sylvia and Alex attended and I was surprised by it since we didn't as attend theirs. Due to my condition, it wasn't a large party but it still managed to be wild. We also didn't travel for our honeymoon, we did it right there at new Jersey. Sylvia used the opportunity to tour New Jersey one more time before heading back to Oklahoma. All in all, it was a lovely experience and I enjoyed every minute of it. ...

    (Three months later) Sylvia's P. O. V The past few months as a married couple have been amazing! Alex and I have established a routine that suits us. Him making breakfast in the morning while I make dinner and then, we do the dishes. It's been amazing so far and I've been really enjoying it. Laying in bed after some passionate moments together, My hands drawing invisible lines on his body while he pulls me closer to himself, I felt content. Feeling a bit bored, I stroke up a conversation. " Alex, How do you feel about having a baby?" I asked and I felt him stiffen. He cleared his throat, readjusting himself. " A child would be lovely but I don't think I want that now." He replied. I raised my face up, staring at him. " Why?" I asked softly. He heaved a sigh. " Well, I-i still have a ton of things I want to put in place before that comes up." " What if I pregnant?" " Are you pregnant?" He asked instead, his voice slightly alarmed.

    Skyler's P. O. V I stirred in my sleep, my eyelids fluttering. Moments later, I opened my eyes, staring at the room. This is Patrick's room, my subconscious muttered. Speaking of Patrick, I looked up and saw he was still sleeping. A smile crept up to my cheeks as I stared at him. He looked completely brazen, his hair completely tousled as a result of last night action. Remembering last night, I blushed, chuckling. Who knew that would happen? Snuggling deeper into his arms, I willed myself that enjoy the moment before he woke up. Almost as instantly, his hands wrapped around my waist, drawing me closer to himself. I laughed when I saw the grin on his face. He was already awake! I raised myself up, kissing him lightly on the lips. " Good morning..." I whispered against them. One eyelid fluttered open as he stared at me. " Good morning...". He groaned before deepening it. We pulled apart a we could catch our breaths. " How was your night?" He asked, ca

    Skyler's P. O. V " What?" I found myself saying. " Another baby. Let's make another one." He repeated. My eyes slowly widened, my cheeks heating up as I understood what he meant. But I was still confused. " Patrick, are you...?" " No I'm not. I'm perfectly sane, I just really wanted us to make another one." He repeated, his eyes boring into mine. I took a step backwards, slightly shocked. Is Patrick being serious right now? Does he really want to... Oh forget it! " If you want another baby, why are you still standing there?" I asked. It took only a second for him to process my words before his lips came crashing down on mine, his hands wrapped tightly around me. I almost fell due to the impact of the kiss but Patrick quickly steadied me. Hands wrapped around each other, body pressed tightly against each other, it was a frenzy. He lifted me up and I immediately wrapped my legs around his waist, all the whike not breaking the kiss. His hands pulled the ni

    Patrick's P. O. V I hurried out of the bar the moment Sylvia finished talking. Getting into my car, I started it up and began driving to Skyler's place. Arriving there moments later, I skipped all the way to the door, desperate to see her. One push at the door knob and I froze. It's locked. Skyler wasn't in. She's gone. Again. Groaning out loud, I ran a hand through my hair. Come on... This can be happening! How long as she be gone for? Where did she even go? I brought out my phone to call her but of course, it didn't go through. " Think, think, think Patrick..." I muttered, pacing around at the hallway. Is there anyone she must've told. " Okay... Her job as my financial advisor was temporary and Darren told me she was introduced by his financial advisor... Evelyn!" I gasped out, snapping my fingers. Scrolling through my contacts, I looked for and found her contacts. Pacing around at the hallway, I impatiently waited for Evelyn to pick up. " Hello..

    (Days later) Patrick's P. O. V These past few days have been hard. I sighed, thinking about the day Skyler and I argued. I tried talking to Skyler but she won't let me see her, won't answer my calls and also not reply my texts. It's confusing and frustrating. Eventually I just gave up on it. I honestly don't know what to do anymore. Picking up my phone, I got ready to go out. I need to get out of here. Sitting down and mopping around won't do any good.... Skyler's P. O. V Packing my things, I angrily dumped them in my boxes, muttering words to myself as I did it. " I can't keep a friendship, I can't keep a relationship... I can't even keep a baby! " I yelled the last bit out, slamming the box shut. Falling to the bed, I groaned out, trying to stop the tears from falling. These past few days have been freaking hard. Patrick called thousands of times, left texts but I was too scared to answer. I didn't know what to say to him. Eventually he just

    Patrick's P. O. V. We stayed a few more days at the hospital due to the doctor's suggestions. They needed to watch Skyler's health to see if it's recovering from the miscarriage and remove any left over blood tissue that didn't bleed out. Hours before Skyler was discharged, Sylvia called. " Hey...." She called out, her voice light and happy. I sucked in air. " Hi..." I muttered, breathing out. " How are you? How's Skyler?" " I'm fine, she's fine. We're both fine. " I said, a bit wary. " What about the baby?" She asked and I stiffened, my grip on the phone tightening. I wanted to lie but decided not to, it wouldn't make any sense. " You didn't answer that question." Sylvia said, her voice low and edged with concern. " Is everything okay?" " No. Something happened." I finally muttered, glancing at Skyler's ward. " What happened?" " Skyler had a miscarriage. She lost the baby. " " What!? " " Yeah. Two d

    (Three weeks later) Sylvia's P. O. V The wedding was a success. Just like Patrick had said, they didn't come to the wedding but Tyler and Olivia did. They even brought little Jeremy with them! For a young couple, they looked really happy. I was happy and also jealous of them. We said our vows in front of the church and exchanged rings. We even had a little party. It was fun but Alex kept it short. Then announced that we'll be going to Manchester for our honeymoon. " But... That's where you studied!?" I asked the moment he told me. " Yes. And it's why I want to take you there. It's really lovely there." " Okay... Can't wait. " I muttered, grinning. He smiled and kissed me on the cheeks. I blushed slightly. The very next day, we flew out of Oklahoma to Manchester. Settling in, he became my tour guide, showing me places he had visited while studying there. There were so many places to see!
