*CARAMEL*I woke up and waited for Blaze to come down for his training as I didn't want to go upstairs to his room, especially that e weren't quite on good terms.But then, for over thirty minutes, he didn't come down, and usually, by now, he would have woken up, so I decided to check on him, and to my shock, he wasn't in his bedroom, all along.I called him, but he wasn't answering his call."Wow. So, he isn't training, today or what? He just left without saying a thing." I said as I squeezed my face. Then I decided to run around the street to stay fit and to take off the annoyance I felt, towards him. Just when I started running around the neighborhood, it was a really good idea as I could no longer feel angry, towards him, but I wondered where he went.I was curious, so I went to the beach, but didn't find him there."I guess he changed location, intentionally, because where would you go, Blaze Nightingale. Tch!" I said to myself.Before I could get ou
*BLAZE*I had such a nice time with Monica and I forgot almost all my worries. I should have known that I needed sex as well to help me feel better. And I made sure to make Monica feel this was her best sex."Wow. You were so good in bed. I have been missing a lot." She said, with a satisfied smile."That was just a tip of the iceberg." I said, with a smile."Whoa. I'm in for a treat. Do you have a girlfriend?" She asked, out of curiosity."Uhm... I don't, and I'm fine with it.""Are you sure? After meeting me?" She asked, sexily.Then I smiled. "I really do not have time for a relationship, and it's way better to be a free man. I have to get going." I said, with a slight smile."You are leaving so soon?""I have some things to take care of. We'll meet again." I said as I stood up.I left and drove back home and everywhere was as silent as usual, and then I walked to Stephanie who was at the dining room, eating."You're back." She said as she bit into
*CARAMEL*David's tarot reading was right all along. I just didn't know it was going to happen, so soon, and to be honest, I never expected it from Stephanie. No wonder the tarot said not to trust anyone.Then I decided to try Blaze's number, hopefully he answers the call as my battery was low, but a text popped up and it was from my brother. I was trying my best to be fine as I was confined here. There was no air here and I wasn't a fish who would feel better, staying inside the water.I opened the text message, and it read; "Help me, Caramel. A group of men are trying to abduct me. I'm hiding, right now, at a deserted garage, near Hudson Street." My eyes widened in shock as I read the text. Someone was after my brother and I was here, unable to do something. My phone was about to go off and I could only text him back, before it went off."Text Blaze." I texted him back, with Blaze's number, and my phone went off."Shit!"My phone was off and as I was
*BLAZE*I was shocked and curious at the same time. What did he want to do with Caramel? It was suspicious and now he had put me in a difficult situation. I certainly wouldn't agree that they take the life of this young guy, neither would I agree to them, taking her. But I had to be wise."You are wasting too much time, trying to decide, Mr. Nightingale." "Leave him. He has to live." I said."Which means you are going to bring us Caramel." The leader said, with a smile that showed he was really happy."What do you have to do with her anyway?" I asked, hoping he was going to be honest with me."Well, I think you shouldn't know too much. What do you think?""I think I should know, because she is my coach." I said, with clenched teeth."Are you bringing her in, or not?" He pointed a gun at Caramel's brother and my eyes widened in shock."I am." I said as I stood up."If you do not bring her in, in three hours, consider her dear brother, dead.""Three h
*CARAMEL*My eyes widened in shock when Blaze was willing to offer me, so easily. I couldn't hide the shock that was on my face. At first, he couldn't report Stephanie for attempting to kill me, and now he was so ready to get rid of me, for my brother. Was this a game? Why would he be more interested in saving my brother? Did he plan this?"Oh, no. I don't mean I'm willing to let you go like that. I can see the look on your face . You are probably doubting me now.""Why won't I? You can't report Stephanie and you can't tell me the reason for that.""But I saved you. If I do not want you alive, I wouldn't do that." He said, looking at me like he was concerned.Then I sighed. This was driving me crazy and my brother's life was at risk and I was the price to set him free. "What plan do you have up your sleeve?" I asked, out of curiosity and hoping that it was going to be a good one."I really don't have any, now." He sighed, sadly.~It was evening and Bl
*BLAZE*Caramel and I ran towards her room where Lucas was, only to find out that he was having a nightmare.“It wasn’t a pleasant experience, so It is expected that he is going to have nightmares, for a while, or maybe just this night.” I said.“Let me go! Let me go!” Lucas said, with sweat beads over his forehead.I could see Caramel looked hurt. Maybe she understood better on what was going on with him. Then she turned to me.“Thank you for today, once again. I think I’ll go to bed now.” She said, with a hint of sadness on her face.“Alright, take care.”I wished I could hug her, to probably console me. She was there when my parents died, but I didn’t know how to console her, especially because I didn’t know what exactly was weighing on her mind. I went back to my room, and hoped that her mood would be better, tomorrow.The next day, I got a call from Nate and I had missed the first three calls, but he kept calling me, which got me curious on what exa
*CARAMEL*After cuddling with Lucas and patting him, so he could probably feel better in his dream, I slept off. The next day, i was determined to go to Lucas' school. I needed to know the people who were bullying him and I needed to put a stop to it.I didn't tell him where we were going to, until we were near his school."You didn't need to walk me to school. I'm actually fine." He said, with a slight smile."I didn't just walk you to school. I am going to meet with those goons who have been giving you a hard time at school." I said, trying to restrain myself from showing how angry I was."Are you for real? Do you want to make things worse?" He exclaimed, with a surprised face."I should be saying that. Your nightmare was bad. It shows that they have been bullying you for long, and I didn't know anything about it. You have been acting so strong, it's time you let me handle this." I said as I walked towards his school."No. You are going to make it wors
BLAZESeeing that message made me feel like I was going be buried under the ground, so soon. Stephanie was pregnant for me, and how could Monica be pregnant for me? Then I drove as fast as I could, so as to drop Stephanie, at home.“Why are driving so fast?” She asked, looking worried.“Well, I have somewhere important to get to, right now. For now, I’ll drop you at home.” I said as I swerved to the left side of the road.~After dropping Stephanie off, I drove back to Monica’s face, and immediately she saw me, her face lightened up.“Blaze, you’re here.” She said as she ran towards me, with a smile.“What the hell did you send to me, Monica!” I said, with seriousness, written all over my face.“The truth?”“That can’t be the truth. I can’t believe I rushed over here, without thinking right. Even if you were to get pregnant, it can’t be so soon. You can’t even find out so soon.”“Alright, alright, I tricked you. I just wanted to have you by my side, today.”
BLAZE’S POVI watched as someone who was at Caramel’s back, hit her neck and got her unconscious. I was angry, but I decided to hold back to know where they were heading to. I couldn’t afford to mess this up because of my feelings.I followed them with my car and drove even through the bad roads. Why did they have to pick a place that is as bad and weird as this? Anyways, those who do abduct people and do bad things look for places like this to carry out their bad works.As soon as they got to their hideout, I called the cops as I could not get into the house without them, noticing me. Then I dialed Maya’s number.“Hello Blaze. He just called me.”“Good. I’m at the hide out, but you do not need to go. I have called the cops already, so you don’t have to worry about it.”“Oh, alright then. I await good news.”“Sure. Thank you so much for this. I have forgiven y
BLAZE’S POV“Since I started working for you, you have always been the reason behind my troubles. I have always been tortured and treated badly because of you.”“Caramel.”“But even with that, you have always saved me, come through for me and try to clean up the mess that was made. I think this is the fight one has to fight to be with a celebrity and I have made my decision, which is to stay, stand and fight with you. If others left you because of this or other reasons, I will stay. And, I will renew my contract with you and prove them wrong. I will let them know that you can win another championship and that I can be the best coach ever. For now, help me find my brother.” She said as a tear, strolled down her chin.My heart beamed with joy and was accompanied with a smile. I hugged her tight and felt so happy that she didn’t push me away this time. The joy I was feeling presently was enough for me to bash anyon
CARAMEL’S POVI rushed out of the cinema, pacing around and waiting for Blaze to come out. As soon as he came out, I opened his car door, but he grabbed my arm.“Caramel, be calm.” He said.“Don’t tell me to be calm! That boy has only me and it is my duty to always protect him.” I said as I withdrew my arm from him and got into his car.Tears ran down my cheek and I sniffed as I couldn’t bear the thought of Lucas killed. He wasn’t supposed to be abducted. What did he do to deserve this? How could I live with a burdened heart?Blaze got into the car and then started the car and we drove off.“Look Caramel. Let’s get to your place first to confirm if he was really abducted or not.” Blaze suggested.Then I nodded and hoped that it was a prank even when 70% of me felt it wasn’t. As soon as we got to my house, I opened the door and saw everywhere scattered. I fell to the gro
BLAZE'S POVThe next day, I woke up feeling better and in a good mood. I smiled at Caramel who was still deep in her sleep. She looked like so cute that I could kiss her until eternity.I decided to leave her room quietly as I wanted to make her a meal myself for a surprise. I didn't win the championship but I had won Caramel's heart and that was still a win for me. Her golden heart which was rare to find was now mine.I got out of the room and walked down the stairs. As I got to the kitchen, I was startled by Rosa whom I didn't notice was in the kitchen."I'm sorry I startled you, Mr. Nightingale." She apologized, with a slight smile."Oh, it's fine."As I disregarded that, I recalled that I had asked Rosa to leave when I needed to speak to Caramel. Certainly, she would have been worried about the outcome and could have wondered why we were no longer saying anything.
CARAMEL’S POVWas this a dream? Moments like this most times happen in movies. Could I be in one? There was no way a billionaire would look at me and tell me he loves me. I have also been harsh to him. There is no way Blaze Nightingale will tell me he loves me.“Please drop the act.” I said as I disengaged from him. Then I looked into his eyes with sadness. “I know you are just trying to make me not to think about the fact that I am not competent enough, but that can’t work. If you feel you are wasting your money by paying me even when I didn’t help you bag the championship, you are free to withhold my payment.” I said, with pain and then dragged my luggage, heading for the door.But then, Blaze grabbed my arm and held my face as he locked eyes with me. In his eyes, I could see sincerity, innocence, love, care and desire.“Allow yourself to feel the love you have for me, because the love I have for you can not be
BLAZE’S POVI watched as part of the crowd cheered for my opponent as he jumped up in victory. My racket fell from my hand and I felt dejected.Earlier on, I had watched as his girlfriend had given him a kiss and encouraged him with love. All through, I couldn’t help but feel guilty for making Caramel go through a lot and her attitude towards me and I found myself missing every ball thrown at me because I was either lost in thought or I was too slow to catch it after snapping out of my thoughts.Suddenly, I remembered Caramel. She wasn’t around here. Could she have ran off feeling bad that I had failed and lost? I left the tennis court and ran out but was swamped by reporters.“Mr. Nightingale, we heard of how you were not fully focused at the tennis court, are you alright?” One of them threw a question at me.“Yes I am.” I answered, trying to get out of the crowd.“Some allegations are made against
BLAZE’S POVIt was a new day and the D-day that I had been waiting for a long time. I was going to give today my best and ensure that I make my mom proud wherever she was. As soon as I was done having my bath, I went to the sitting room, waiting for Caramel to be done.I expected that she was going to take a longer time than I expected as I knew women do take time in getting prepared for an outing but she came out in about two minutes.I was stunned at her beauty and her preparedness was visible. In the last few days, I had spent my time thinking about how much I had offended her and endangered her life. If only she could give me another chance to make things right.Yeah, today was the D-day and the day I have been on my toes for a while but even as it was here, I wasn’t feeling elated. I had mixed feelings and I wished Caramel would hug me and tell me encouraging words. She was the one I cherished after my mother and my mother never failed to
CARAMEL’S POVNow, it was clear to me that having any form of close relationship with Blaze would only endanger me and my brother still needed me more than anything in this world. I also needed to achieve my dreams before giving up the ghost.“Hey Caramel. You have been discharged. Let’s go back.” Paul said, with a smile on his face.I smiled back at him and got down from the bed.“Alright, I am ready to go.”“I’m glad you are much better. You really need to cut yourself some slack at times, okay?”“Sure, I will. And I will be more careful, next time. I bet they would have done more games without me.”“Come on, no one is as heartless as you might think right now. They all took five.” Paul smiled and ruffled my hair.“Wow. I feel loved.”Paul and I took a cab back to the beach and everyone was dismissed to have a long nap before we started again
BLAZE’S POV“Caramel! Caramel, wake up!” I called out her name and shook her body in anxiety but she wasn’t moving.Then I turned to Monica.“What the hell did you do that for!” I raised my voice at her.I could tell she was startled as she covered her mouth with her hands, looking shocked at Caramel who wasn’t moving an inch.“If something happens to her, just have it in mind that you’ll be going to jail.” I threatened her, with anger.Then I touched her neck to be sure if she was still breathing or not and to my relief, she was still breathing. Immediately, I carried her back to the beach and those who had given up saw me from afar and ran towards me.“What happened to her?” Paul asked, looking alarmed.“She tripped and fell hard but it seems she passed out.” I replied as I handed her over to him.I called the ambulance as fast as I could and,
