" I know"
"Good, how are you feeling right now ?"
" I don't really know I'm nervous"
"It's okay not to know" I smiled
"really ?" He gasped
"Yes really , but I'm sure you will."
"Are you still going to come and visit sometime ?"
"Sure I will !"
"And play with me and Emma as well"
"Yes "
"I'll come and visit you too champ "
"That's awesome ! thank you uncle Cole"
"It's time !"
And we knocked on the door and the wonderful Meredith and Jerry Ariston opened up.
They were officially granted the adoption of little Cole after five years . And I was as happy as him when he met little Emma again. Now that I know that he was safe and in good hands. My job was done . Still I had to make regular quarterly visits during the first year , but I'm sure he wi

Inevitably His Chapter 01: Strange Encounter
Chapter OneIvyCole's eyes pierced through my soul and I just lost track of time for a while. His gaze was soft and mesmerizing. A mixture of warmth and something I could not put into words. As if the blue of his irises calmed all my erupted senses Who would have believed a single look could feel so good...A few hours earlier It was a long day at North High Carolina's University and I was exhausted after my morning classes. Therefore, I decided to go freshen up before heading home. I was in my last year already, which meant this year was final graduation.On my way out of the restroom, I received a text from my unrelated cousin Brad asking me to stop by the library so we could hang out for a while before heading home together; since he was

Chapter Two"It’s getting late, we should hurry" Brad remarked I nodded and we rushed towards the bus station. Cole followed our steps silently. The bus was full to the doors so we hurried up to climb in. First went Brad, he offered me a hand to climb in and Cole after me. By the minute we got in, the door creaked and closed behind us and the driver pulled away. The bus was so full and there was barely enough space to the three of us to fit in the entrance. I had to grip at both Brad and Cole to keep my balance when the bus pulled away. Obviously since North High was a public University, the food and transport accommodations left to wonder. Besides, it was Monday and Mondays are always crowded.Ugh, I cannot stand the noise and wish I had my earphones right now

Chapter ThreeApparently, there was traffic that day, and the road to our destination seemed unreachable in this crowd. We haven’t even reached the first station stop yet. Brad was still talking on the phone; in fact, he was on the phone the entire time and didn't notice what was happening around, He didn't mind the crowd and unsteadiness of the transportation. The bus moved again slowly increasing the speed to reach normal. The road must have been clear all the way until our first stop. From North High CU to where we lived we still had two more stops to go. Luckily, a bunch of students took off at the first stop which left more room for us in the bus."Ah finally some space" Brad motioned to Cole and I and we followed him to the free gathered four seats, of which one was taken already.Brad comfortably took place next to the girl alread

I breathed deeply as I recollected my senses after I hang up my short conversation with Anna but mostly needed some air from the free falling into Cole's arms. Hell that was embarrassing and intimately disturbing. I let out a handful of air, turned around my feet, and walked through the path that leads to my foster house.I usually stayed at my dorm room but I was spending the night at the house today like every Monday of every week. About five minutes of walking, I arrived in front of the big brown wooden door of my foster house.The Pittersons The golden letters ornate the door, above the number one-hundred-seventy-eight 178. The matching golden hand doorbell stood right on the center of the wooden door under the name; and the bell was to the right of the entrance. Not the fancy house though ;It has only three bedrooms, one bathroom, a living room and a dining room opened to

Chapter FiveColeFlashback" You both would make the perfect match" Brad tipsily said showing me a picture on his phone , he thought he did, actually he just lit up the screen and showed me his wallpaper , a picture of his beloved Beyonce. "And you're drunk!" "I'm not" He waved me off shaking his head; he stopped doing so when dizziness hit him. It was as clear as water that he was way too drunk" Yes you so are, Brad come on look at yourself man, you won’t be able to walk after this" I pointed to the glass of neat whisky he held in his hand, hoping to talk some reason into him"Okay, I am not... I mean I am!" He said in between hiccups, I chuckle; he was unbelievable at times."I'm serious though,” He added on my amusement "You were suppose

Chapter SixIvy Friday came and we were all up for the upcoming drawing contest.Each year North High Carolina's University organized a painting contest for students who studied fine arts and sculpture. However, everyone with the ability and talent to draw or paint was able to apply.And I did! Thanks to Anna who obliged me, just kidding, Anna encouraged me into doing it. She is very supportive of my drawing skills, she says that I had better chances at winning the contest prize than all the participating student! Yeah well, she was as you might expect, subjective.Not that I thought less of my drawings but winning a competition against students of fine arts was not even possible in my dreams . Needless to say, some of them had their own paintings exhibitions. And where was I compared to that? I had my work hanging on the walls of my room whereas the other were kept safely in a box

Chapter SevenThe day after the one in the library, Cole and I had fixed a time and place in order to accomplish the task I was given. We agreed on meeting at noon in class .I had to bring my painting tools and set everything on the table, hence I arrived a little earlier than he did. I have always favored being early because it gave me time to do things my own pace; I hated to rush the last minute. So I unpacked my paint and tools and by the time Cole pushed the classroom door open, I was already all set and ready to begin"Sorry; I'm late?" He said letting his backpack slide over his shoulder, It seemed to me more of a question than it is of an apology"Sorry; I'm early?" I said bashfully, however I managed to smile to hide how nervous I was seeing him smile"So tell me what should I do?" He inquired with a small smile that made me hold my breath for some reason"Err... you just sit there as naturally as possible

Chapter EightCole Ivy threw her head back; her laugh filling the emptiness of the classroom apparently, at something I unconsciously did while I was sitting for her to draw my portrait.And before you ask, yes Brad had a hand in this. He couldn't resist.Brad was the reason for my participation in the first place, his uncle being a member of the school committee he could get me in easily. Assigning me to be Ivy's model is, by all means a whole different kettle of fish. All I can say is that he went through some trouble just to get me selected for the right one.I learned from him this morning that the contest was important for her and I am glad I agreed to participate because as much as I would like to hide it or avoid it, I desperately wanted to see her again.Her laugh echoed i

Cole soothed my back with his hand" I..I don't know... maybe” I was confused , I didn’t even know what to say" Babe look at me” Cole turned me to face him, he had me between his arms so I looked up meeting his ocean calming blue ones"Do you remember anything of that day ?"I averted my eyes to the old yet handsome man beside me and back to Cole as he lightly whispered to me"Babe ?""

Billy said that he told him everything but he was upset , I'm glad he accepted to meet me after all this time. I abandoned him after he risked his life to protect me . only I did it to protect him.

Chapter FiftyIvyI woke up on the couch about an hour later. I looked around the apartment and realized that I fell asleep .…. Billy asked me to stay in this apartment and said he won't be longThe place I'm staying in might belong to him and there were guards at the entrance to insure my safety. I walked to the window and looked around hoping he would be back soonAfter a while the door opened and an old yet strong and tall man appeared before my eyes.I was flabbergasted he entered the house so quietly and calmly as if the house was his. And sat comfortably on the couch near me while two other men in a suit stood beside me."How did… who are you ?" I froze for a while and then I quickly grabbed a knife on the kitchen counter and aimed it at him but he seemed unfazed. His icy blue eyes remained senseless at my failing attempt to &nb

Chapter Forty-NineIvy"Get in right now!" A man's voice startled me when I was on my way leaving the hospital."The men who tried to kidnap you are here!" My eyes bulged when I recognized Cole's relative–Billy Hoffman–as I turned my head towards the road."Get in the car, now!" Billy said opening the car's door for me."What...""I'll explain everything, hurry !"swiftly I climbed inside the black tinted SUV before he drove away. Shocked was the least I could say about my state right then."Wait how about Cole...?" I objected as soon as I closed the door behind me after I sat inside.So much for leaving him huh? The voice of my conscience reasoned inside my head"Do not worry about Cole ; the police is with him""But..""Do not worry, I took care of it. He never was their target anyway; they were afte

Chapter Forty-EightColeHer voice was different, who is she ? Do I know her ?My head was drumming loud.Where am I , what happened ?...My throat felt dry and my body numb , I could not move . I slowly opened my eyes to an empty room, the bluish walls and white curtains that surrounded me indicated that I was in a hospital room."Ivy ?" I could feel her hand In mine . My eyelids felt heavy so I surrendered to the comfort of the darkness.FlashbackIvy's body was on the floor not moving…I felt something piercing through my back. .. I've seen the blood on Ivy's white dress …the fear of losing her to those men..She was completely dull on the ground, her white floating dress stained with my blood …"Baby please wake up!".

Chapter Forty-sevenIvy"He's waking up." Kathrin said to me with a smileI couldn't believe my ears at first but Cole's hand moved under my sighthe was coming back to life."He is still sedated , it will take about an hour for him to be able to fully wake up" She explained calmly"How is he ?" My trembling voice drowned in my own tears while my eyes looked at his complexion"He's a fighter, he is doing very well " she reassured .I stepped closer and held his hand in mine again , feeling its warmth again .I slowly rubbed my fingers on his bruised knuckles ."He can hear and feel you " She told me softly."Really ?" How was that even possible ? And with her words he squeezed a little on my hand just like before. And my heart skipped a beat"I'll leave yo

Chapter Forty-SixIvyI hurried downstairs to the reception, I almost stumbled at two nurses who were coming up.I had to apologize before I made my way to the reception. Then I saw the man who was with the detective so I hurried towards him instead" Where is he ? How is he ? and who the hell are you ?" I asked in a trembling voice . I panicked . and I think that I was yelling"Calm down he is fine ! I transferred him to an individual room "The man calmly replied to my questions on a softer tone, taking a step forward in my direction." Who are you and why did you transfer him ? how could you even do that " I obviously couldn’t calm down unless I saw Cole with my own eyes and know that he was safe." I'm Cole's relative, and I transferred him so you could stay wi
Inevitably His Chapter 45: E.R Dowson
Chapter Forty-FiveIvyI made my way back to the room I was supposed to stay in. Well, It was only to put some clothes on and go back to him because I promised the nurse that I'll do it.So that once I was no longer a patient, they would let me stay by his side. I walked towards the small closet beside the bed where I thought my clothes were.I opened the door and found a transparent bag inside. I opened it and found the dress I was wearing that day, I remembered it was a knee length white shirt dress , it was kept in the bag with my underwear and shoes as well as my phone , watch and little purse . All my stuff were inside the plastic bag, while I wore the hospital robe.Carefully, I unzipped the bag and took out the white but now red stained dress. It had a massive stain of blood on it.
