“Well, to my house?” I announced I was unsure if it's okay with him.
I am stupid. I know. I really am. Besides, it’s not like it’s a big deal right? I only decided to bring Eion to my house because we didn't have a choice. Plus, he had been there a few times already.
Well, during that time it was him himself who came there, and this time, it was me who willingly brought him. It’s just awkward on my part...
And that's the reason why I was here, sitting awkwardly in the front seat of his car while Eion was driving.
I was staring at the window for the whole ride, focusing on it like it was the most interesting thing in the world. The scent of something dark and masculine was lingering in the a

All I can say is one thing. Or two. Incredibly-extraordinary. Is that even words? I think so. His laugh was deep and masculine, but very relaxing to hear. As I stare at him, my jaw drops to the ground. I'm afraid it will never come back to its proper place. Though it wasn't obvious, I saw the small crinkles in his eyes and the twinkle in his eyes, but my eyes were busy focusing on one thing, his lips... The frown that I'm used to seeing on his lips was replaced by a smile, his gleaming white teeth showing while a laugh was escaping from his mouth. He looked so young.
I look at the two in shock who were playing like in a battle. Gosh, they really get along really well. Well, at least Nathan's water gun had no water in it because it would be hard to clean up after. They continued firing while I stood up and watched them from a corner where I won't be hurt by the 'monster'. Finally, the sound of guns they made stopped. "Okay, you win, kid." Eion raised his hand, surrendering. My brother jumped in joy. "Did you see it Snowwy? We won!" He exclaimed to me. Eion turned his attention to me as if he didn't notice me this whole time. He stared at me blankly and I stared back, hiding the smile on my face. When I couldn't take it anymore, I giggled. A slight tinge of pin
Everyone got up as soon as the bell rang. I packed up my things and slung my backpack over my shoulder. I was about to head directly to the door and go home when I remembered that we haven't finished the task yet. I turned around to look at the back to check if Eion was still there. I sighed in relief as I saw him adjusting the straps of his bag before flinging it over his shoulder. He didn't see me standing at the doorway as he still prepared himself to leave. I step aside to allow students to exit towards the door as they bumped into me repeatedly. "Eion," I called out enough for him to hear. He looked up and nodded his head lazily just seeing me. I waved him over, motioning to come. "What is it?" He asked in his u
"Wait, what?" I asked. It took me a minute to register it in my mind. His...house? My eyes bulged and my mouth formed an 'o'. Eion was now on the outside of the car, waiting for me impatiently. I opened the door and managed to stand properly without falling. With my jellied knees, my eyes were glued to the house in front of me. I had to practically raise my head higher to see the house's interior. I tried so hard not to gawk, I could feel Eion's gaze from my back. All I can say is that it was huge, but it was larger than Aunt Maggie's house. If measured, our average house didn't even reach half of it. I gulped down the drool on my mouth and cleared my throat. Eion started to walk towards the front porch and was motioning his head for me to follow him. And for the first time, I obeyed
"Are you coming or what?" Eion asked me irritatedly from the stairs and I offered a small smile to Eion’s father before ascending the stairs and followed Eion. He entered a door that was painted in navy blue before motioning for me to come. Entering the room, it was actually Eion’s bedroom. I looked around, expecting his room to be messy and dirty but instead, I was greeted with a very clean room. There wasn't a single mess. I touched the wall and saw that there was not even dust. The only mess was the shirt that he wore earlier, laying at the edge of his bed. I could say it’s massive since my room was even half of it. When I entered, a small living room greeted me. The black cushioned sofa
"No, I didn't." I lied. "Snow. I am not stupid. I know you saw something, now say it." He said in a low voice, I gulped. His eyes pierced me, almost like piercing my soul. Knowing he won't stop until I tell the truth, I sighed, not having a choice. "Well, actually, I have." I hesitantly said. "What are those....smurf stickers on your books?" I asked slowly, afraid of his reaction. Was it that big of a big deal for him? I waited for an outburst or anything, but nothing came. Furrowing my eyebrows, I dared to look at him and saw he was calm and was looking at me curiously. I raised my eyebrows at him, "What?" "You can laugh now. C'mon, laugh at me." He said.
Happy Birthday. Those were words I want to hear from my friends and my family today. However, they forgot about it, much to my disappointment. Am I asking too much? It was just a simple greeting with two words and thirteen words. Perhaps I'm overreacting. I know I'm too old for this. But it's not every day that you turn seventeen. "Are you okay?" Ember asked upon noticing my mood. I sent her a weak smile and nodded my head yes. She seemed to notice the truth behind my eyes but didn't ask further. I sighed. Even Ember was concerned about me... when my own friends were acting like it's a normal day. Tomorrow I will avoid them, for sure they will regret forge
Turning my head around, I look for the source of the voice just to see him grinning from the far end of the garden. Without thinking, I ran towards him. "Miss me?" He said as soon as I was centimeters away from him. The only reply he received was my hand touching his face. I slapped him. Hard. Luke groaned. "What was that for?" I smiled at him sweetly. "Well, firstly, you didn't show up today in school. Secondly, you, of all the people in the world, forget this day!! You forgot about my birthday! Now, how could you show up here with that grin of yours!!!" He threw his hands up and chuckled. "Oh, c'mon! I am th
Thank goodness I managed to convince Eion to stop by the reception after making out with him in the car.The reception was at Hudson’s villa, where Eion’s childhood friend, Mario was serving. I spotted him and smiled at him. “Glad you’re still working here, Mario.”He bowed a bit, “Even I’m amazed why Eion didn’t fire me. Anyways, I’m wishing you a happy marriage, Ms. Snow.” He then whispered, “I knew you two would end up with each other.” He said with a wink, and before I could even reply, he walked away.“What was that?” Asked Eion when he caught up to me as he was parking the car earlier.“Oh, nothing. It’s Mario being Mario.” I replied.
Eion started his vow. “Do you remember the very first day that we met?”It was not the usual love at first sight moment. I’ve hated you, not knowing that it was love that I was feeling. We started out as enemies and now, look at us. You have become my lover, my companion, and my best friend. There's no one else I'd want to build a life with. I get to have you by my side, my love, and my wife, for eternity.” Saying that he paused. He was looking at my eyes as he said that. He didn’t have any copy, he then continued,“You have made me the happiest man in the world today by agreeing to share your life with me. I promise to cherish and respect you. I promise to care for you and protect you. I promise to comfort you and encourage you. I promise to be with you for all of eternity.
Reaching the venue, I stayed in the car as the organizers of our wedding checked everything first before we started.I looked at the busy crowd sitting on the chairs. We only have a hundred guests for today as I don’t want to invite a lot.Besides, I don’t have a lot of friends. I lost touch with my high school friends the moment we migrated here. Also, mom is also not that close with dad’s relatives as they both ran away from their home when they had me.And I can’t blame her for that.So I only have mom, Nathan, and some of my classmates from Anastolgia High like Ember. So it’s mostly Eion’s family and relatives as his guests. I saw Luke and Hannah greeting the guests and making sure everyone was comfortable.
“I really didn’t expect you, out of the three of us, to be the first one to get married, Snow.” Said Emma as she applied some powder on her face with her makeup brush. “Oh, are you jealous that she is the first one to be married out of us, or are you jealous because you want to get married next, Emma?” Hannah suggested as she applied lipstick on her lips. Emma just rolled her eyes, “Well, I didn't expect that you, out of all of us, to be the first one to get pregnant, Hannah.” She fired back, pointing at Hannah’s big tummy. Hannah is now seven months pregnant with Leroy’s child. Even I was surprised at the sudden news. I hadn’t expected it. Hannah chuckled at that and winked at me, “This is your time gi
Just then, Eion stopped and stood up. A waiter gave him a guitar and he cleared his throat.“I never sing, Snow, but for tonight, it’s only you and me. I’ll sing for you.”I gasped at that. “Wait, you’re really going to sing?”“Yes. I had been practicing for the past months. In the Philippines, did you know that it was their practice to sing your heart out with a guitar and go to the house of the person you are going to woo. It’s called harana.” He informed me. His hands were tuning the guitar and he was trembling a bit. I flashed him a smile and gave him a thumbs up to encourage him.He nodded, “It may not be your house and we're on a ship right now but... I’m doing it. I hope you’
SNOW’S POV“Snow, a delivery was sent to you,” Mom said as soon as I woke up. Grabbing it and opening it, it was flowers and chocolates, with a handwritten note that I know all too well.It was Eion’s.Reading it, I smile at what he just said inside the note.“To my beautiful snow in my winter heart, this is for you. I haven’t forgotten our anniversary.”this has been his tactic for the past 4 years every time it's our anniversary. Then, my phone beeped and Eion texted me.Did you like the flowers and chocolates? That’s just the teaser. We’ll have dinner later at 7pm. Don’t be late. - your strawberry addict robot
4 YEARS LATERAUNT MAGGIE’S POV“Justin!” I called out, huffing and climbing up the stairs. I turned to his nanny and asked, “He still hasn't eaten his breakfast?”“Yes ma'am. He’s been running around for the whole morning. I apologize.” His nanny replied.I breathed in and out, “Let’s stop chasing him for now. I’m sure you'll get tired soon and eat.” I said, dismissing his tired nanny. II walked towards the dining table where my husband was sitting and having his breakfast. “Honey, can you please call for Justin? His nanny has been tired of taking care of him these days. He has to eat his breakfast.”“Yes, honey.&rd
Emma’s POVWell, I trust Eion,” Snow replied to my question as she checked the time with her wristwatch. Sighing, she stood up and grabbed her bag. “I gotta go now.”I just rolled my eyes at her, “Yeah yeah, go to your strawberry addict robot now and leave your bitter and lonely friends.”She just chuckled at me and bid her goodbyes, with Hannah encouraging her also. “Go get your man, Snow.” She winked and left the ice cream shop.With Snow leaving, Hannah and I were left alone now. I turned to her, “What should we do now? Our friend just left and I’m bored.” I complained to her.It looks like Hannah was not hearing a wo
He turned off the lights. His lips continued on doing wonders on mine. This kiss was different from any of our last time. He trailed down kisses on my neck, down to my collarbone.It’s almost like he wanted to take a taste at everything, every inch of me. I couldn’t help but moan out his name, “Ugh. Eion.”And I covered my mouth from saying that, feeling my cheeks getting hotter in embarrassment.Geez, did I really…just moaned?I bit my lip, looking up at him as he stared into my soul, piercing me with his emerald eyes. He gulped, almost like in an agony, “Say that again. Call my name again, Snow.”I did as he told me, “Eion.”
