2023-08-08 19:51:55The party has been going on for hours and it is getting boring each passing second.
I left Flynn side when my dad came and started talking business with him and I haven't seen him since.
I keep walking around greeting the guests with fake smiles.
I'm honestly really tired,I wish I could go home and sleep just like my brother did.
He only gave the excuse of Esperanza being sick to go home. Probably to F*CK her.
I then spot Grayson and Erica standing behind the piano talking.
I walk towards them hastily to avoid talking to anyone else.
"Why aren't you guys socializing?" I asked looking between the two.
"Oh we are actually fine here. Erica was actually giving me a quality time telling me about her experience in Ohio" Grayson says with a smile and somehow I feel hurt and disappointed and jealous.
I wanted to be the one he has quality time with not my help/friend.
I think Erica sense the mood I was in so she immediately cleared things up.
"He is just joking..I was only telling him about you and how you loved to play the piano when bored" she says and my cheeks taint pink.
"Oh..." was all I could mutter.
"Infact,he wanted you to play for him" she says and I see Grayson smile shyly.
"Well...yeah..if that ...if you are okay with it" he says shyly and I smile.
"Sure "I tell them and took a seat behind the piano. Since the place was silence at the moment people immediately stopped talking and all the attention came to me.
I started with a slow melody, I used to like this song when I was little and used to sing it for my dolls.
Song;
A million thoughts in my head
Should I let my heart keep listening'Cause up 'til now I've walked the lineNothing lost but something missingI can't decide
What's wrong, what's rightWhich way should I goIf only I knew what my heart was telling me
Don't know what I'm feelingIs this just a dream?Ah oh, yeahIf only I could read the signs in front of meI could find the way to who I'm meant to beAh oh, if onlyIf onlyIf onlyEveryone was silent looking a me and I could feel Grayson's eye intently on me as I continued to sing the song.
Every step, every word
With every hour I am falling inTo something new, something braveTo someone I, I have never beenI can't decide
What's wrong, what's rightWhich way should I goIf only I knew what my heart was telling me
Don't know what I'm feelingIs this just a dream?Ah oh, yeahIf only I could read the signs in front of meI could find the way to who I'm meant to beAh oh, if onlyYeahAm I crazy? Maybe we could happen
YeahWill you still be with me when the magic's all run out?If only I knew what my heart was telling me
Don't know what I'm feelingIs this just a dream?Ah ohIf only I could read the signs in front of meI could find the way to who I'm meant to beAh ohIf only, yeah
If only, yeahIf only, yeahIf only, yeahIf only
If onlyEveryone erupted with cheers and applauds when ended my song. I was smiling at everyone and thanking them with a small wave.
Then suddenly I feel someone behind me. I turn to see it was Flynn and he looks a bit messy.
"You sing beautifully baby" he whispers against my neck and kisses me there.
"Where have you been?" I asked and turned to face him.
"And why do you look that way?" I say pointing to his untied tie and missing shirt button.
"Arrh...well...I... there..there was a trespasser and he wanted to take pictures without a permit " he says
"Oh my..why didn't call security. Did he hurt you?" I ask worriedly checking him for any injuries.
"I'm fine babe. Now let talk about how sexy you look playing that piano. I can't wait till we get home " he whispers and by now I have already long forgotten about Grayson or Erica.
"Hmmm..what are you going to do" I whisper seductively biting my lips.
"I can't say but I can show you" he says and I smile.
Before I knew it he was dragging me across the room to one of the guest rooms.
This place is one of my dad's home but we only have dinner parties and other activities over here.
I can't believe Flynn and I are having sex when my parents are just downstairs with other guests. I guess we can't keep our hands to our selves.

Saturday mornings are my favorite, because I basically do nothing at all. Most of the time I go to the spa to relax.Sometimes Flynn and I go to my parents retort beach to spend the weekend.But today is not one of those days. Today I am going to learn how to cook. I have always wanted to be one those pretty girls who cook for their husbands and bring them homemade lunch at work. My mom is an example of those women,I think it is part of the reasons my dad loves her so much.I didn't learn how to cook because I was invested in my education and didn't want to miss out on my teenage years. That is why today I asked Erica to be my teacher. Her meals are pretty good and she was willing to teach me.Well I bribed her with this new Chanel bag she has been wanting for ages and it was completely sold out."Okay so today we are going to start with some basic break fast. Scrambled eggs and sausage with bacon. Plus pancakes" she says showing me her ingredients.Flynn is out with his friends an

The weeks that went by has been pretty boring,just doing the same thing over and over again. Wake up in the morning,eat,go to work, come back home and have sex.But lately I haven't really been feeling okay. I'm dull, moody and have fever like everyday.I have noticed my period has also been late but I don't want to get excited because it might not be what I am thinking.I have been keeping this to myself but I think Erica has noticed, that is why she bought me a pregnancy test yesterday. I haven't taken it because I am afraid of the outcome. I don't want to be disappointed,so I have asked Erica to help me with it.She is now making some sandwiches for Grayson and I.Speaking of Grayson, we have gotten along pretty well. His kids are here pretty often now a days. We have bonded alot and they seem to speak highly of their mom. I wish to meet her one day,I like Piper alot,she is more care free but Annalise is more reserved and quiet. She acts like the overprotective big sister, scoldin

I am pacing back and forth in the leaving room angrily."Calm down Anne,you are stressing and you know that is not good for the baby. Think of him or her" Erica reasons."How can I be calm after seeing that headline. He is cheating on me with another woman and you tell me to calm down. I'm pregnant with his child for crying out loud"I exclaim"Like you said you are pregnant. You suffered for this baby,do not let anyone take it away from you. Calm down, beside we don't know if this is true or not. This is the internet for pete's sake anyone can write lies for more views " Erica exclaim before leading me to sit down."He better have a good explanation for this"I say still angry."Just relax, okay and think of the baby.

I feel a tap on my shoulder and someone softly whispering my name.I groan but still didn't open my eyes hoping the person will eventually go away but no.The taping still continued and I had no choice but to open my eyes.When I did open my eyes, Erica's face came to view,she was holding a sweeping broom and dust collector.I sat up slowly because my side hurt ,"Did you sleep here the entire night" she asks concerned,I only nod my head and let out a sigh."Can you please bring me some water" I asked softly and she nods politely.Some few seconds later,she came back with the water and gave it to me. She turned around to leave but I stopped her."Eri, wait! Look I'm sorry for yelling at you and blaming you for my marital problems. I took the wrong approach and I am sorry. Please forgive me" I pleadShe was quiet for a while,I think contemplating on the answer she'll give me."Please. Forgive me. You are like my sister and sisters forgive each other " I pursued her"Okay fine. But onl

"What!" Erica and I say in unison."Yeah,that was the same reaction I got a year ago. She has been battling with Leukemia for a while. She was on chemo for a while until we run low on money and she had to get off. That is why the day of the interview,I pleaded for the job. She had to get on chemo before the surgery. She was doing well until she relapsed yesterday. We actually just got home from the hospital just an hour ago,"he says."Oh Grayson,why didn't say anything from the beginning,I could have helped you. I am responsible for you " I tell him." You have done so much for me,with my children's scholarship and my pay,I didn't want to be a burden on you" he explains"You are not a burden, what is the use of the money if I don't help others with it. I am going to call my doctor,he will recommend us to the best oncologist in the state " I tell him."Oh please I don't want to be a bother" he protests"I'm calling him and you can't stop me" I tell him."When she puts her mind to some

I feel something covering me up,the thing feels warm and cozy. I slowly opened my eyes to see I'm not in my house,I was about to panic when realization struck me,I'm in Grayson's home.I didn't realize I fell asleep,the Chinese must have hit a nerve.I slowly opened my eyes to see Grayson smiling at me."Hey" I whisper"Hey" he whispers back,and we stared at each, lost in our grazes.He then clears his throat and balanced the tray on the night stand. That is when I realized I was on a bed."What says the time?" I asked because I wasn't wearing my watch anymore."It is almost midnight. You fell asleep on the couch and I thought it might be uncomfortable for you giving your situation. I also brought some chocolate cake and milk " he says and I looked at him confused."Erica" we both say in unison and chuckle."She called saying the kids will be staying the night,so I should let you sleep and she'll bring you a change over tomorrow morning" he explains and I nod."Also your husband calle

I woke up alone on the bed and I smiled to myself,this is the best sleep I have had in my entire years of existence.I got out from the bed and went downstairs to the kitchen because I figured Grayson would be around.I was surprised to see Erica and girls already there, but there was an awkward tension in the room, especially since Annalise has been glaring at me ever since I entered the room.Erica served me the breakfast she brought from home,just the way I like it.I was in the middle of eating when my phone rang,I check the caller ID to see it was my lovely husband.I excused myself to answer the call."Oh thank God Jane. I thought something happened to you,you've not been picking up my calls and you weren't home or at your dad's place. Fuck! Where are you?"he rambles on and I sigh."You don't have to worry about me,I'm fine. I'll be home later today. I'm at Grayson's house" I tell him"What! Why the fuck would you be at our chauffeur's home!"he yells through the phone."Don't f

"I am so sorry Isabella,I didn't want any of these things to come. Please baby"my dad tells me as I was a sobbing mess on my mom's lap."But why does it have to be me! You are not the heir of the company,aunt Jane is! Aspen is the one supposed to do this!" I cry."Baby,you know Aspen is only fifteen and your aunt and dad share custody of the Jones fortune. Even if Aspen was of legal age to marry she couldn't marry because she is the heir to Gomez-luna fortune" my mom's explain.Gomez-luna is my grandma's side of the family.

16 years laterI walk down the hallway as my heels clicked against the floor.It was almost 8 am and my fifteen years old daughter is still sleeping.She is going to be the death of me. All my three boys are awake and already getting dressed for school.I opened the door to her room,the spacious bedroom comes to view.All her purple curtains are closed and her queen decorated room looks dark.I walk to curtains and opened it allowing the rays of sunshine into the room.I heard her groan and turned to face the other side.I walked to her and pulled the duvet off her body.She opens her with a whine and I hold my waist glaring at her."Get up Aspen! You are late for school"I hiss at her but she didn't give two fucks.Because her green eyes met mine and she smiled."Good morning mommy. I had a wonderful night"she say dreamily and stretches like a princess.Well she is because of her dad! And practically every man in my family!They say she is taste of my own medicine.

Someone is touching my cheeks with soft hands.Why is the person squishing my face,I don't like being woken up from my naps.Then I felt something wet on my cheeks,"Stop Gray,I am tired"I groan but only cute giggles filled my ears.I slowly opened my eyes to meet two pairs of amber eyes.When did Grayson turn so little and became two? I must be going crazy.I rub my tired eyes and they were still there."Mama..ma..mamma"they both chant looking at me.Ohh....I sometimes forget I am a mother. It still feels surreal to me."Hey babies"I coo at them but they only smiled and crawled closer to me.Keith climbed on top of me,whiles his brother stayed down,They used their tiny hands to pull my top down revealing my bare boobs to them.They quickly latch their lips on the nipples and begun sucking.They begun doing this act ever since they learnt how to crawl.I would sometimes wake up to them already sucking their breast milk.But the question here is,how the heck did they get here.Grayson

Two weeks since I left home and I am back. Well I wished I could stay longer but I can't keep everyone worried.Plus I am pregnant so they'll think the worst happened.Not everyone is worried tho,I told Erica everything that happened and she suggested I needed break from them.I booked the next flight out of the country back to France.

She is pregnant for fuck's sake and with my child too.Why did I bring up Bryanna! That was so low of me.I was just angry she hit Anna. I know she was a hand full but she didn't deserve to be hit.I heard someone clear her throat and I turned to see Piper standing there shaking her head."What?"I asked"That was low, even for you. You purposely wanted to hurt her,that is not right at all. You should listen to both sides. Anna can very be convincing when she wants to be. You know her and you know Jane. I am going to my room"she says shaking her head and then walking out.Fuck! It is true.I should have listen to her side before thinking.I need to find her.
