We finished the paperwork with the buying of the property rather quickly. As much as I wanted to pay for everything myself, Alex just won't let back down so we halved it. We decided to stay at home for at least a week first to pack everything. We had also taken the measurements inside the house so we could buy the furniture that we needed.

I wanted to just buy everything online so we could spend more time packing our stuff, but Alex insisted on buying them at a physical store so I just followed. We're currently inside a furniture shop and I'm already overwhelmed. There were tons of options and we're just in the living room section. On the other hand, Alex looks enthusiastic as fuck.

"What do you think about this one, baby? Should we get it in a leather finish or a fabric finish?" he asked, sitting down on one of the couches.

"Leather, I guess. With all the fur the dogs will produce, leather would be easier to clean as long they won't destroy them," I replied.

"Yep, that's a good idea

    Having Alex pack everything that we were bringing to our new home was a whole lot more efficient than us doing it together, but that also meant me having to let go of about seventy percent of my own belongings because according to him, I don't need multiple pieces of the same thing when in fact, I do. I tried arguing with him, but he said it wouldn't fit inside the house so we had to compromise with me only having two of the same things. 'We can wash it,' he said. Yeah, we can, but the quality will not last long. Now I'm banished into the backyard with the dogs because I wouldn't stop annoying Alex with the packing. He has somehow reduced a good chunk of the house into one moving truckload. All in three days. Alex came to the garden to ask to double-check if there is still anything that I wish to bring."You're going to say no anyway. You're going to be like,' that won't fit in the new house', 'you already have ten of those, just take one', and 'I've hated that thing ever since I lai

    I stared down at the casket as it was being lowered into the grave. There was no one else here besides myself and the priest. I just stood there motionless as they covered the grave. The only man who ever gave a shit about me is now buried six feet underground. "The man loved you like his own son. He's proud of you, that's for sure." The priest says before patting my shoulder and leaving me alone. I just gave him a nod in response. "Bye, George. Until we meet again." I bid my final goodbye before turning to leave. I got in my car, I was dreading going home. I'm too scared to be faced with the reality that I'm alone again. I let out a sigh before turning on the engine and making my way home. It didn't take long before I reached the driveway. I turned off the engine and stayed in the car for a few minutes before mustering the courage to get out. As soon as I opened the doors to the house, I was met with an eerie silence. "Fuck this," I say before slamming the door shut behind me as

    It has been a week since George's funeral and it's been a week since I've gone home. The mansion was left empty except for the housekeepers and gardeners who come in from time to time. I still couldn't bear to go home. I stepped out of the car and let the valet take my car before entering the hotel. I went straight to the elevator, not wanting to deal with anyone and as the elevator doors closed, a hand stopped it. I let out a sigh of frustration as another person entered. I pushed myself onto the corner, trying to avoid any conversation as much as possible. I could feel the man, looking at me from time to time, but I kept my gaze forward. "Hey." The man greeted me, but I ignored him. "O-kay. My name's Alex." He said with a small wave. I let out a sigh and moved forward so that he was behind me. The elevator ride suddenly felt excruciatingly long. The man tapped my shoulder before slipping a calling card in my suit pocket. "Call me. You look like you need it." He said with a wink

    I look back into the mirror for the nth time after changing my shirt again. I don't know why I'm so anxious about this meeting. I don't even know what possessed me to meet up with him. I finally settled with a printed button-up shirt and some jeans. I put on my sneakers before heading out of the room. I entered the elevator and once again, prayed that I'll be alone for the whole ride. My feet wouldn't stop tapping against the floor as I anxiously waited for the elevator to reach the ground floor. The elevator finally stopped and I quickly got out. The cafe wasn't far so I decided to just take a walk. I immediately spotted Alex sitting in one of the booths. We locked eyes and he waved me over. I gave him a small wave before entering the cafe. He motioned to the seat in front of him so I hesitantly took a seat. "Don't look so nervous. I don't bite." He said before sending a wink my way. Blood rushed to my face. "Did you order already?" I asked, trying to seem unaffected by his comme

    A while later, a knock sounded on my door. I quickly got up and let Alex inside the room. "Just sit on the couch, I'll get you your payment," I told him before entering my closet where my safe is. I took sixty thousand dollars of cash out of the safe and quickly closed it. I went back into the room and handed the cash to Alex. He looked at me in shock. "Give me the whole payment already? You have way too much trust in me." He said as he took the cash and I just shrug. "You haven't given me a reason to not trust you," I replied. "I haven't given you a reason to trust me as well." He said. "Do you want to rest first or do you want me to tour you around?" I asked. "I'd like a tour, please. Let me just put this in my room." He said as he slaps the wad of cash on his hand. "I'll wait for you in the hallway," I said as I exit the room with him behind me. I closed the door to my room and leaned on the wall as I waited for him to go back out of his room. He soon entered the hallway an

    Alex told me to stay in my room as he prepares for our date. I kept on insisting that I should help him but he just shooed me away, telling me that it would ruin the surprise. I walk around my room, trying to think of what to do to pass time. I decided to just work on what to wear so I went inside my closet and looked through the clothes that I could probably wear. Alex just told me to wear some earth tones. The fuck does that even mean. I took out my phone and looked through earth-tone outfits before deciding to settle on one outfit that I knew I could replicate. I put the outfit on and walk over to the rack of perfumes. I decided on using a perfume with smokey notes because it's brown. I picked up some white sneakers from the shoe cabinet and put them on. I stand in front of the mirror and look over my outfit. It was good enough, I guess. I walked back into my room and sat on the couch as I waited for Alex to call me. Soon enough, there was a knock on the door so I stood up to open

    I sat in the shower as the water flowed from my head down to the rest of my body. I just sat there and stared at the wall. I couldn't get over the embarrassment of what happened earlier. I heard him knocking at my door earlier, but I just decided to ignore it. I couldn't face him after what happened. It's best if I just terminate the agreement as soon as I can. The water soon started to get cold so I finally stood up and turned off the shower. I stepped out and dried myself off with a towel, wrapping it around my waist before going back to my room. I decided on just wearing some boxers and a large shirt before getting myself in bed. I tossed and turned, not being able to sleep. I let out a sigh and stared at the ceiling before finally closing my eyes. Thoughts keep on running in my head. What does Alex think of me now? We didn't even talk about signing an NDA and he could easily use this against me. I don't know how I would approach him after this. ... The brightness of the sun wok

    "You were saying," I said, clearing my throat."Uhm, Mr. Leroy wants to meet with you today. He's here right now actually." Liana says.I let out a sigh and motioned for her to let him in. That man is such a pain in the fucking ass. He keeps on insisting to allow him to buy shares, but I won't let him. I don't want his kind of men to be involved with my company. Alex gave me a look as if asking if I was okay and I just responded with a smile. Mr. Leroy soon came in and I could see Alex freeze from behind him."Good morning, Mr. Leroy. What is it that you want today?" I asked, ready for this conversation to be over."No need to be rude, Levi. I'm just here to buy shares." He said with a smug look on his face.I don't know why I put up with this man. "You already know my answer. No." I said with a firm tone.Leroy sighed and shook his head. "What harm will it bring you to let me buy your shares?" He said as he looks around my office.He turned around and his eyes landed on Alex. A smug

    Alex spent the past few hours upon returning home setting up the backyard for the dogs. He somehow managed to build two doghouses in one day and placed a bunch of obstacle courses around the backyard. Saying that he was excited about these new dogs was an understatement. Alex bundles up all the boxes and packaging before throwing them away. He came back inside the house with his clothes completely soaked in sweat. He wanted to show the dogs right away but there were dead asleep in the living room. Alex took off his shirt and wiped off the sweat on his forehead with it. He threw his soaked shirt at me, making me gag in disgust. "That's fucking disgusting, Alex!" I shouted at him as I throw back his shirt. "We're covered in cum and sweat every time we have sex, but you're disgusted with a sweat-soaked shirt?" he said as he was slowly walking towards me, wet shirt in hand. "What are you doing?" I asked, slowly stepping away. "Nothing," he said with an innocent smile on his face. He

    It's been a few months and my leg cast has been removed and after weeks of persistence, Alex finally agreed to move me back to my old room. Lory went back to her apartment the same day she caught us having sex. It's not our fault she didn't know how to knock, but I do miss her barging into my room and annoying Alex. It was now just the two of us and I haven't had any more flashbacks about our relationship before the accident.Alex was a bit disappointed at first, but we became closer each day and he no longer sulked about the fact that I haven't remembered anything more from our past. He's currently massaging my leg as per the therapist's instructions. I need a few more sessions and hopefully, I'll be able to regain normal function from my leg. "Do you want to have sex after this?" Alex suddenly blurted out.I looked at him in shock before grabbing a pillow and slamming it onto his face. Unfortunately, he caught the pillow before it reached his face. I pouted at him as he put the pil

    "Did you get to ask the hospital if I can have the session here?" I asked Alex as he sat down on the dining chair."Yeah, they said they could send one of their therapists here, but they said once it's time for your leg to get the therapy you'd have to do it at the hospital." He replied. "You know Alex was supposed to be a nurse," Lory said before taking a spoonful of food into her mouth. "Thank god he didn't finish. There are enough assholes in the medical field, we don't need another one." She teased.Alex reached out to Lory and smacked her forehead. I gasped in shock as the sound reverberated throughout the room."Ow! That hurt, asshole!" Lory exclaimed in pain."That was too hard, Alex," I said, slapping his arm lightly. "Hey, she'll be fine. That was just a little smack." Alex defended."That was not a 'little' smack, Alex. That was just mean," I replied."I hit her worse when we were younger. She'll be fine. I promise," He said, placing a hand over his chest."See! This is w

    Alex and I are back in his room, making out for I don't know how long already. I don't even remember how we got here. All I know is that I'm enjoying it. The doorbell rang once again and Alex start to pull away. I groaned in annoyance as I pull him back towards me."I have to get the door, Levi," He mumbled against my lips.I sighed and let him go. Alex gave me a soft peck on the lips, making me pout at him. He smiled at me and my god, that smile of his is contagious. "You act as if I'll be gone for days," He teased as he got off the bed."Come back quickly," I called out as he walked out the door. He only stuck his tongue out at me like a child and I couldn't help but roll my eyes. I soon heard bickering from outside my door and I immediately knew that it was Lory who came. She opened the door with a wide smile on her face with Alex carrying an annoyed look on his face."Hi! I'm here again," she exclaimed. "It looks like I interrupted something so I'm just going to go to my room,

    Leon came back the same night to pack up his bag. I went to apologize to him since I didn't want to end the day with him on bad terms, but he just shrugged and said that it was fine and that he understands. He left the house with not so much as a goodbye or a wave back. Lory also went home for the night to pack up their things and she decided that she'll just go back here tomorrow, leaving me and Alex alone. Alex is currently fixing the room Leon left, changing the sheets, and cleaning up the trash that was left around. I waited by the door, watching him like a creep as he moves around the room. He told me to go rest up in my room after we had dinner, but I didn't want to be left alone so followed him here. "Do you need anything? Like sheets? Extra pillows?" I asked. "No, I've already got all I need here. Do you need anything?" He asked. "No," I replied. "Yeah, you do. You wouldn't be waiting by the door like a creep if you didn't need anything." He teased. "I just didn't want

    Levi's POV"Can you tell me everything?" I asked."About what?" He replied."About our relationship. I want to know." I said.Alex didn't hesitate as he agreed to tell me everything."I guess I should start from the very beginning." He said with a light chuckle. "I, uhm, I've actually seen you a couple of times before approaching you.""Really? Where?" I asked."At a cafe, near your office. I've wanted to approach you a couple of times but you were either in a rush or you look like you'd split someone in half when they would get in your way." He replied. As much as I would like to get offended by that statement, I couldn't help but chuckle. It was something that I couldn't deny. Handling the company and dealing with my piece of shit of a father was just not the perfect formula for a good mood. Speaking of my father."I'm curious, my dad has never contacted me since I got into an accident. It's not that I'm wishing for him to do so or anything. It's just that apparently I'm selling t

    Alex's POV "Lory, hurry the fuck up!" I shouted at my sister who was taking her sweet ass time getting ready for her appointment. "I'm just looking for my shoes!" She shouted back at me. "You said the same thing ten fucking hours ago!" I shouted, annoyed at how slow she was moving. "Look, I'm meeting your boyfriend today too you know. I can't look like some shriveled doll thrown at the side of the road." She said, pointing her finger at me. I sighed in annoyance before dropping myself on the couch with a loud groan. After what felt like another ten years, my sister was finally done getting ready. We walked out of the apartment and exited the building as we wait for the cab to arrive. "Are you excited to see him again?" My sister asked me. "Of course. He said he remembered some bits about us so maybe if I go there he'll remember more." I replied. "You kind of sound desperate." My sister teased. "Haha, so funny," I said while rolling my eyes. The cab finally arrived and we bot
