** Day 24 **Jennifer's POV:"Where were you? I looked for you everywhere and you were nowhere to be seen." Richard snaps as soon as I walk through the door, Ben turns from the TV to look at us with shock and amusement in his face. "You didn't even reply to my text, if you don't want to talk to me you can just say so. I apologised and you said it didn't matter, you said it was okay and that you understood. If you understand, why have you been avoiding me this past week? How many times do you want me to tell you that I'm sorry, what was I supposed to say, Jenny? I can't just drop a bomb and say goodbye."I rub my eyes with my hands, I did not want to talk about this either. "Can we at least go to my room?" I ask him."Oh no, please, don't mind me. Carry on right here." Ben smiles innocently, we both glare at him."Come." I grab his hand and take him to my room, he sits in my bed waiting for me to talk but I head towards my closet."Where are you going, you just got here." he asked as h
Richard's P.O.VI'd be lying if I say I am not nervous. When Jennifer and I got here, there are a few paparazzi taking pictures and talking about Isabella Martin, a man shouted Jennifer's name when we stepped out of the car, Jennifer talked to him, she was nice to them but just making conversation. She must be used to this by now, I can only imagine how it was when Kayden died, I remember all the magazines took pictures of each and every family member, I remember there are pictures online of the funeral, pictures of Isabella Martin crying on Diego Giamatti's arms and him crying too, little Kevin sitting on a chair looking sad, Ben crying with his parents and a lot of family members crying but in none of those pictures stood Jennifer. I remember the paparazzi going crazy and even asked Ben questions about how the family was doing. People said a lot of things about Kayden, I remember that. I also remember that even before Kayden died, Jennifer was the centre of attention, she was like t
Last dayRichard's POV:Today is Saturday. This is the last day of our relationship. That is If we are still doing the bet which we are not. However, I cannot seem to shake the fear that Jennifer is going to pop up any minute and tell me that she's breaking up with me. So,I've been avoiding her all day long and I think she's been avoiding me too. She saw me this morning and literally ran out of the door. She couldn't be more obvious.I don't want her to break up with me, we never officially said this is a relationship after we stopped the bet but still, we're a couple right? I don't know what to think expect for the fact that maybe I am starting to fall for Jennifer, I am caring for her in ways I shouldn't, but I didn't want to stop.Hours went by, I've spend the day thinking too much. I don't know what I'm going to tell Hannah, it isn't like I'm going to leave her alone, I'm still going to be her friend, our friendship is something I'm not planning on breaking. However, I don't think
3rd personJennifer walked out her room slightly angry at whoever that was disturbing her moment. She has an idea of who it was since her friends who tied her up and told her to come back to them once she was done figuring things out with Richard or else they'll come looking for her."What the hell are you guys doing!?" Jennifer snapped at her friends but she couldn't hold a serious face for long, Sasha, Elliott and Nick are holding a big sculpture of a elephant. Suddenly the phrase Jennifer had been repeating all afternoon to her friends while she complained about hers and Richard's bet came to her mind: "I can't be around him, I can't stop thinking about him. it's like a big elephant in your room that you just can't ignore."Her friends look at Jennifer as they are trying to hold the big elephant in place, for a minute, nobody said anything, Cindy and Sandra walked in holding big slab that is supposed to place the elephant."It's an elephant, you know, now it isn't only in your m
Jennifer's P.O.V"so,You're the one sending us threats." I said, it was supposed to be a question but I already knew the answer,it’s her. She was there when Kayden was alone in his room. I remember seeing her leaving my house when I came down, that's why I run into my brother's room to look for him. I remember calling her name and she look back at me as I ran to my brother's room. I thought she had left but it seems that she stayed back and recorded what happened, who on right mind does that? "You sick bitch, you're the one who filmed it." I could feel the tears filling my eyes, I sat on my bed not trusting my shaking body at this point."Oh yeah, I did film it, and I have so many more videos of your big brother, I have a video of him playing with snow, if you know what I mean..." The bitch laughed, and I knew what she meant but for so long I refused to believe my brother got himself into hard core drugs. "I have a video of him doing meth too, I have another video of him hurting hims
Richard's P.O.V Sandra was making fun of Elliott and we are all laughing, even Cindy . But she was trying to get Sandra to leave her alone. I never thought I could be with Jennifer's friends without Jennifer in the room having a normal conversation. They are pretty close, like Jennifer said, they acted like a family, one big, annoying and cute family.I am waiting for Jennifer to come back, Cindy had the AC on and it's cold, I need my Jennifer's warmth, I love the way how she's always so warm, it's almost as if I had my own little piece of sunshine, not only because she's always warm but when she smiles, that real Jennifer smile, it always seems to make my insides warm at the sight and everything just seems to get brighter. And what I just said was such a fucking cheesy cliche, I couldn't believe myself.So yeah, I'm in deep shit, I really like Jennifer.She had only gone for about 20 minutes, leaving me cold and with a tingly sensation in my heart and she was just going to get her
Jennifer's P.O.VI don't know what she wanted from me. She said she didn't like me, she said she wanted people to see who I really was. But honestly, I don't understand why she's doing this. I spoke to her once in all that time, only once. I offered her money and she accepted it, she was supposed to stay away from Kayden but she didn't, she cheated me and the next time I saw her was the day Kayden died. I never spoke to her after that, I didn't know her so why does she want to hurt me so bad?She's making my days a living hell. It's only been two days since she called me, I listened to the three media attachment on the e-mail. It was my sessions with Dr Nannes. It was me telling him how much I resented Kayden for 'leaving me', how much I resented my parents for leaving me alone with Kayden when I was just a kid and I should have to dealt with what I did. It was me saying how much I hated myself for not being able to do something. How pathetic they were for going to Kayden's grave and
Third Person's POV:"where are we going? It's Wednesday and we got college tomorrow and I don't want to fall asleep in class. I want to graduate." Simon complained, he wanted to hang out with his friends but this is their last year of college, he wants to do well.Simon, Emily, Jessica, Ben and Richard are all ready and waiting for Jennifer as she requested, Cindy had left a few hours ago to get her friends ready.Richard was anxious because he didn't know what Jennifer had planned or why all their friends were invited too, he didn't mind it but he was confused and excited at the same time .Ben was texting Maria, they had an argument over something so silly, Ben doesn't even remember what it was. he loved her so deeply, she was her first love, the girl he wanted to marry. They argued like every other couple and they always came back to each other because Ben knew something which is Maria loved him as much as he loved him.Jessica was slightly annoyed. She did want to be here with her
***Hannah's POV*** ( for all those who wonder what happened with Hannah)I thought after moving out with Richard , everything will be fine. Me and him will have happily everafter. But no, though Richard left Jennifer , he always thought of her. I hate that bitch. She stole my Richie . Two years I waited for Richard to come along. But he didn't. It felt like we are complete strangers. I thought of asking him to marry me so that we get to stay together. My love is enough for two of us to survive. Richie being emotional fool , will agree because of guilt.Before I try to execute my plan , my past caught up with me. Devon Ferrer, Father of some boy who took to drugs because of me . I don't even remember him as there are many boys .Devon Ferrer is running a criminal Mafia in Spain. His gang members caught me and took me to face him.I thought he's going to kill me . But no , he had other ideas. He hit me where it hurts the most. He showed me all the evidences he has of me selling drugs a
ain! He's leaving1126 words***Jennifer's POV***I'm freaking out. I knew he was going to leave, I knew it. But what I didn't know was what I'd do once it actually happened. I'm again left with the uncertainty of not knowing whats going to happen with me. I thought we could work it out, we're 25 years old, if it didn't work out then because we were too immature or whatever, it should work now, shouldn't it? But how was it supposed to work when once again, Richard doesn't seem like he's willing to do the chasing for once. I chased after him, I was made out to be a fool and I was cheated on, I was played, I was lied to and I still begged him not to break up with me. This time I wasn't going to beg him, he was leaving, then let him leave. I will not be a fool again.I sat on my couch with a bottle of white vodka from Moscow, I sat with an empty glass on my hand and a half broken heart. I say half broken because I was already prepared for this, I knew it was going to happen, yes it fuck
***Third person's POV***"I'm seriously about to punch you." Cindy said as she tried to hurry her pace, Nick and Sasha were late."Cindy, I almost broke my toe, it hurts walking." Sasha said as an excuse, Cindy rolled her eyes turning on the corner of the hallway."Excuses, Alexander, you two are walking me down the aisle , I have no one else but you two." She said trying to push away the hurt she felt thinking back to when she called her father last night, asking him to reconsider, he called her a faggot and said that her wedding was a gathering for clowns.Cindy cried all night long. She had tried so hard not to let her parents hurt her but it was so hard. There was one more relative Cindy had but she knew for a fact he wouldn't care, Cindy's brother, Tommy. She had always feared and loved her brother, she hated him too but he was her brother. She wanted him here. She had sent him an invitation but he never answered back saying whether if he was coming or not.Cindy remembers Tommy,
Richard's POV:After our long talk, we ended on Jennifer's old bed in her room. We are just cuddling and having fun at eachother.Jennifer laughed and turned on her side to look at me, her green eyes meeting my brown ones and I had to remind myself that I shouldn't feel the sudden rush that went from my chest to my lower parts, I shouldn't even be thinking about being horny at times like this, but this is Jennifer, I have always been attracted to Jennifer. Even if we fail to love each other I know for a fact physical attraction will always be there."I missed you too much to let awkwardness ruin this." She smiled at me lifting her hand to caress my cheek with a smile on her lips, I smile back at her feeling myself getting lost in her eyes."How's uni going for you?" I asked herShe took a deep breath in moving her hand away, "Tiring. It's very tiring, I'm in law school now, got only two more years and I'm done. But on top of that my mum wanted my dad to retire so he did, kind of. Anyw
Jennifer's POVIf I had known that I am going to be face to face with Richard so fucking soon, I would have at least prepared myself for it.As soon as Cindy said his name, I wanted to both run away and towards her. It has been so long, too long since I last saw him , his chubby cheeks, his beautiful brown eyes that always had a light in them.But what I saw when I came face to face with Richard was different. It was like a new version of the man I loved and still love. It was him but different.The Richard in front of me had grown and oh did he got hotter. His face was no longer chubby, his cheekbones were high and well marked, he has this rockstar vibe around him. But that's just how his appearance has change, I had seen him in magazines and even though I tried really hard not to watch them, in his music videos. I knew he had changed but seeing him here, right in front of me? That's something else.But anyway, the change I'm talking about is the one I see in his eyes, his eyes no l
Richard's P.O.VFlashes and more flashes, all the fucking time. I was so tired from the flight, I just wanted to go home and sleep. But then again, do I have a home? The only place I could call a home was my Nana's place but she passed away two years ago and shortly after, my father passed too. I can't explain how I feel about it, I didn't even get to say goodbye or that I loved him or that I was sorry. I didn't even get to tell him that I wasn't angry anymore, my father passed away thinking that I hated him. My mother didn't even want me to go to my dad's funeral, something about the press and the paparazzi. we managed to keep it off the public eye, nobody found out and as far as people knew, I was in Canada that week. After my father's private funeral, my mother didn't look at me, she didn't say a word, she left in tears by my brother's arm. I guess I deserve it. I left after that, the first flight out of that town, out of that city and out of that state. I couldn't stand being so f
After 5 years..,Jennifer's P.O.V"Jen, come on, Cindy is driving me crazy, please!" Sandra yelled at me through the phone, she was supposed to be asking me for a favour yet it sounded like she was ordering me around."Sandra you know I can't leave the office right now." I told her holding the phone between my shoulder and my ear, "Listen, I'll talk to Alan and see if he can cover the meetings for me, if he can I'll go, but if not, I'm sorry.""I swear she's going to drain me." Sandra sighed, I could hear Cindy in the background shouting at Sandra, "I gotta go, I don't even know what she's saying right now, but you better get here, Jen because I'm going to kill her if she tries to talk to me about the differences between two shades of purple. I just-- God, Cindy I'm coming!!!"Before I had the opportunity to reply, Sandra ended the call. I let my phone drop to my lap as I stretched my back and my neck. I had been at the office since 7am and it was currently 7pm, I should had headed ho
**Richard's POV**I haven't seen Jennifer for four months now. I can totally understand why Jennifer doesn't want to see me anymore. I am a fucked up selfish man. I had my entire life planned out and was waiting for Hannah to come from jail. I am supposed to be in a job after finishing the university . But no, I got into the mess and our ugly breakup is worse. Jennifer doesn't deserve it. I was selfish and a confused man. I took safe option. Jennifer deserves better. I could've said it nicely rather than being harsh with me. She doesn't lie unlike me in our relationship .If me snapping at her and breaking up with her was bad enough, then the very next morning ,most horrible thing happened. Someone had shot our last conversation and sold it to the paparazzi. Almost every magazine has a picture of Jennifer crying while walking away from Marcus studio. Our relationship story was almost covered in two pages." Player gets played " stated a magazine . Some magazine said I used her for ge
Jennifer's POVI feel stupid, pathetic and ashamed too. I feel like a child who did something extremely wrong in front of a bunch of kids and now I was the joke of the hour. I have never felt like this before, it's humiliating. I don't know what to do.I was avoiding Richard at all cost, I couldn't face him, this time was different from all other times, this time I was embarrassed, I was-- truly hurt. The kind of hurt that makes your body hurt when you breath in or when you're just walking around and it just hurts. I was acting like a fucking ghost, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat, I barely left Nick's place, I couldn't even talk without feeling hurt for how much of a pain this really was.Is this what being heart broken was like? I've known pain, I know what it is like to truly be heartbroken but this pain is a different kind of pain.Just thinking about him made my heart twist, how could it hurt this bad? I never thought it was true, I never thought that it could actually hurt thi
