Chapter 108
Ellie
Last night was hectic . I love Max; but some things take more time to come to terms with, especially when they have changed you , to the point where you question every little thing and wonder when the fairytale is going to end . When I met Max for the first time when I was a kid ; he was like the best friend I never knew I needed . I had been in a dark place for a while after my brother’s death . When my mother started travelling , I let her go . Part of me knew she needed to heal , but I also needed to heal too . It took months before I could talk to anyone properly and when Max came around I started talking and laughing. My grandfather had gotten me the right kind of help with regards to child psychologists and counselors . I didn’t heal overnight. I had to put in the work and have difficult conversations.
The hardest conversation I had to have was with my mother. I felt abandoned when he left to go do what my brother
Chapter 109EllieWithin seconds there was tension in the room and the energy had gone from calm to tense. I had only ever talked to Juan over the phone and we video called each other . He had dark brown hair and light brown eyes .He still oozed of creativity , and his voice was melodic. I couldn’t believe my life. Cleo told me that she had a brief stint with him and Michelangelo had sent him away to cover up Jake’s tragic passing . I was there when it happened and I had to cover the story .Juan had been an absolute gentleman and he was there for Cleo . He is he dependable type and he gets things done no excuses . Juan had always come across as a perfectionist and when I asked Daniel about his track record he said that; he had worked with the Luca family for years and he and him were similar with regards to personality.I was starting
Chapter 110MaxI have always had trouble opening up and trusting people . I have been hurt so many times and I have been let down by people who have promised love and never delivered . I love Ellie yes , but what is love without full trust . I don’t trust easily ; and once you have my complete trust I expect the same from you. When you are keeping things from me that comes across as betrayal and I normally react with vengeance.Betty abused me and treated me like crap , and I think I would rather be in a relationship with full trust that I know I am controlled with no secrets than be in a relationship with someone who can’t even tell me about a traumatic event in her life that changed her . Ellie knows about my past she was there for me when I was going through hell or some sort of doubt phase . She knows everything about me and I am starting to believe that I don’t know ,my girlfriend as well as I think I know her .
Chapter 111EllieI have never not once lost sleep because of a guy . I am really not talking Maxwell walking out on me very well . Every time my phone rings I run to it hoping he would call and he doesn’t . To be honest my work has been keeping my mind off a lot of things and that includes Maxwell . Juan doesn’t trust Paul and he had offered to stay a bit longer so that we could get some work done for the game on Saturday and the launch of the new S.F.C Jersey next week Wednesday.Paul had a meeting to go to and Juan and me ended up working through the night . Aaron was lying to me because I could sense Max’s energy around while he was talking to me yesterday . Maxwell and I are connected in more ways than one and I can feel him before I see him and its vice versa with him . I had a feeling he knew that I knew that he was with Aaron and not in bed with a woman fucking her brains out , to work off some stress . I was t
Chapter 112EllieI looked at Daniel and he looked at me seriously . As soon as the elevator opened he guided me into his office and closed the door . As soon as I sat down on the couch he sat next to me and handed me a juice box . It was pineapple juice..." Drink up . "I drank the juice and he handed me a Nutella sandwich. I took a bite out of it and washed it down with some juice before I spoke." Who packed your lunch for you ?"" I did and I am proud of myself. "" I used to wonder what the combination of your taste was when I woke you up with head. Now I think I have an answer for the question that was bugging me . "He gently placed his index finger on my lips and I stopped talking."Don't say it I really love the combination ."I held his hand
Chapter 113EllieI looked at Daniel and for the first time in a very long time I didn't know the man I was looking at. I knew him so well and to an extent inside out because I have slept with him , gone out with him , hell I even pretended to be his girlfriend at some point. Never have I ever felt so betrayed by someone I trusted and to come think of it by someone who I regarded as a brother and best friend. Why couldn't I remember him and what was the main reason for keeping information this crucial away from me .I reluctantly sat down next to him and have him a serious look . I was infuriated but calm at the same time, and also the heels I was wearing were comfy , but they were more comfortable when I sat down with them . I can't believe I got dressed up for work only to end up in Daniel's office asking for an explanation for an event in that had alter
Chapter 114MaxWhen you are a professional footballer you eat; breathe , sleep , walk , and talk soccer . There isn't a day that goes by that you don't think of playing, ways you could improve on your game , techniques and execution. The stereotype has always been that ; soccer players get payed to kick a ball, play FIFA all day and go for training. There is also the known fact that we love to have wild parties and that; we are party animalsWhat Is just said is a lie ; we are professional athletes who love to have fun on occassion and we take our jobs of kicking a ball around and scoring goals for a living very seriously.I haven't been that distracted for the past couple of hours , and ever since I've gotten back from my break and with everything that is going on I feel like I am back to being the old me again ; without the drama that comes with girlfriend
chapter115EllieI cannot believe that I am where I am right now at this point I’m supposed to be at a stadium where’s Paul viewing a sold-out game and having the time of my life watching Maxwell Play his first national match after a very long time of not playing. Instead, I’m in the hospital hooks up on all sorts of different machines and I have Daniel he's decided to go into doctor mode because of what happened on Thursday morning.I was all dressed up I was all dressed up ready to get to work and, forget that I had problems with Maxwell because what happened on Wednesday just really shook me to the Core.I’ve had fights with Maxwell before but this time I think I might have struck a chord. I don't like fighting with him and I won't beg for him to come back. He expects me to call and text him and apologize for being friends with Daniel. I am not going to do that. He knew that I had a history with Daniel when we
Chapter 116.MaxYou don’t get good at something by doing nothing. You get good at something by putting in the hard work showing up everyday and doing your best. I’m an athlete I put on 100 and 10% and what I do and I do it to the best of my ability.I’ve always known that Paul wanted to test me. When Paul walked in my room and asked me where Ellie was. I wasn’t the least bit worried. I’ve been so mad at Ellie that all I wanted to do., was making feel the same pain I felt. If I was friends with all my exes and I went to them for advice ,Went behind My girlfriend’s back had fun with all my exes had dinner breakfast or lunch have them come in and cook for me and talk to my girlfriend when my girlfriend needs advice I bet you’d feel like she was useless and question every question she had.It’s not that I don’t trust Daniel he has helped me when I needed help the most and he has given me solid
