Adrian's P O V

You know that feeling when you want something but it just seems to be so out of reach?

That's the exact same situation I found myself in.

How I went from despising her presence to wanting it so bad is one question I also do not have a response to and for the first time in my life, I felt totally clueless.

Seeing her go in that car with the douchebag that single day after work made me feel suffocated and disturbed like I've lost the one thing that means the most to me and I just wouldn't allow that.

What I don't quite understand is the reason why she's been avoiding me since the past week.

It's been days....

Most of the time, she doesn't show up and uses Travis as an intermediary to get through to me.

And when she does decide to show up, she does so only when utterly necessary and before you know it, she's gone.

Today also happened to be one of those days I didn't manage to get a single glimpse of her and it got me so disoriented and mad at everyone for no reason up unt

    Jordan's P O VI kept tossing and turning in bed almost all night long and that isn't even the weird part.The weird part is how I had that stupid smile tattoed on my face while my fingers traced my lips in response to my memories from this afternoon.Half the time, my cheeks hurt from smiling too much and for the other half time left, I wanted to bury my face deep in my pillow and scream into it but I thought against It.I mean, it's the middle of the night and Ralph is just next door.Speaking of Ralph, I started to feel troubled all over again.I feel like I'm walking right into a catastrophe but I also feel like I have no power to steer my direction.I know Brittany said to go with the flow but, easier said than done right?I am well aware of Ralph's feelings towards me but I couldn't possibly say the same about Adrain.Yes, he kissed me and it definitely was the best kiss of my entire life if I may add but does that really mean anything?Just when I thought I had found the soluti

    Jordan's P O VIt's morning.The MORNING. and trust me, I would have felt a lot better if I didn't wake up to this nervous feeling deep inside of me after managing to fall asleep at some point last night for just the little hours left before my new alarm clock did its usual wake up call I found just as annoying as it was useful.I stopped by my selections from last night to decide on any last minute changes but there wasn't anything much I could trust myself to change at this point so I drew in a deep breath to calm my hard laboured lungs before stepping in for a warm bath as the weather this morning appears to be a little chilly.I took my time getting into my beige body con dress that hugged my body like a second skin but still appeared perfectly appropriate and board meeting worthy. It's soft cotton sleeves that reached down my wrist shielded my slender arms from the chilly weather and the small Vee shaped neckline showed only a very tiny peek of my chest and it was just perfect b

    Adrian's P O VWomen, as most people say, are a reflection of happiness and I always concluded that saying to be extremely absurd as I never really saw for myself how true all of that really is up until recently after Jordan appeared in my world.She waltzed her way into my world that very day she bumped into me and at this point, that seems to have been the best thing that has happened to me so far.Never in all my days did I expect to derive this much joy from just being around a person. It is at the same time overwhelming as it is Beautiful.The remaining hours of yesterday, I seriously couldn't stop smiling to myself the entire time since after I kissed her. I didn't even get to meet with my visitors anymore but sent Travis in my place because I wanted to dwell in my moment a little longer.Mrs Bell was right. I've become a whole new person and I could feel it. The same changes were those that took me from not caring at all to looking out the door to the conference room countless

    Jordan's P O VI remember saying I was nervous but right now, I was screaming on the inside!Not only did he ask me to have lunch with him, he stole my hand in his in a way I found really cute and I just couldn't stop smiling to myself ever since.When Brittany came to me with news about Ralph, it was right then I confirmed to myself for a second time that I had somehow chosen Adrian over Ralph because I seriously didn't want to leave.After silently pleading with Brittany to handle the situation which she agreed to with a simple raise of her brows which I very much understood, I felt myself relax and ready to ease into the mood as I have come to terms with at the early hours of this morning when I got into this dress I do not in anyway regret putting on.I Know it's just me being silly but my dress totally matched the color of his tie and it made my organs squeeze on the inside.With how well my body fit perfectly well against his when he held me during the elevator ride definitely a

    Adrian's P O VMy unplanned lunch date with Jordan went as smoothly as supposed and the day seemed a lot more promising when she agreed to come to the hotel with me.I'm usually one who keeps to myself but in this case, I'm willing to show her My Entire world and place her at the very center of it all where she really belongs.I have never thought nor wanted to settle down but with the number of women I've encountered in the past, I could surely conclude Jordan to be the object of all my desires.The few number of times I found her in my arms, perfection has never known a better definition than that.The eagerness to always see her face and the electrifying feel of her skin brushing against mine as we walked side by side into the hotel's building could never tire me.I was born of no Royal Blood but I'm willing to make her Queen of my empire. I doubt I could possibly ever describe the amount of relief I felt when she revealed her business with the douchebag to me.I never felt threat

    Jordan's P O V I am soo...... Urghh!No matter the number of times anyone tries to convince me all of this wasn't my fault, I'm never believing any of it.It totally is my fault!I seriously don't remember being this terrified in my entire life.I had no tangible reason for taking the stairs at the hotel asides the voice of the little explorer in me urging me to go see what's up there by myself since he was busy talking to some Guy.And like a loose sheep without a Shepherd, I swayed along to the voice in my head and climbed up the stairs waving at the every random person I met on my way up and imagining myself in one of those bright yellow helmets a number of them had on.I reached the top and particularly got interested by the vast spacious area that looked big enough to hold a ball for an entire kingdom and I more than anything wanted to sway carefreely across the shiny marble tied floor and pretend I was a princess dancing with my prince but the ringing of my cellphone interrupt

    Jordan's P O VHours breezed by and I remained seated in that one single chair that stood by his bed side while Travis finally brought himself down to the sofa on the far end on one side of the room after pacing around for a good hour and a half.I got lost watching and waiting for Adrian's still fingers to move a bit to realize Travis had got off the chair and was now standing right behind me until I felt his hand rest on one side of my shoulder then I turned to face him.He looked weary and exhausted. Almost really pitiable."I'm gonna go grab something to eat." He informed me in a low voice and I only just nodded in response silently."Would you like something too? Anything at all" He questioned next and yet again, I didn't speak but only just shook my head in response.I really had my insides full earlier during lunch and I seriously doubt I could bring myself to eat anything right now."No, I'm good thank you" I responded after a quick thought."Okay. I'll be right back" came hi

    Adrian's P O VReluctantly, I peeled my eyes open several hours later to dawn that kept up with its rude disturbance that didn't relent until I eventually let my eyes open after trying to fight my awakening for so long.I was still present in my private ward and trust me when I say, I had the best sleep I've had my entire life just last night even though I was on the least comfortable beds I've slept in.Her warmth and presence in my arms the entire time was more than enough to get me through the night but I didn't wake up to a smile on my face when my eyes would meet her sleeping face or her eyes piercing into mine as I had expected because I had woken up to her absence.At what point in time she left and how she slipped away without my knowledge felt like a whole mystery to me.I was almost certain I had her secured In my strong hold.A mystery that placed a frown on my face when I sat up to scan the entire room only to be met by Travis's beady eyes complimenting the weird all too w

    Adrian's P O VI had just watched my Father get carted away with his hands cuffed behind his back and I felt absolutely nothing.He faked his own death and He's been dead to me for several years so i prefered it stayed that way.I probably hated him the more for what he tried doing to Jordan. The original files pertaining to my hotel were retrieved and now in my possession. Everything seemed to be alright now and there was no other issue asides from My Mother giving me a thousand and one reasons why I shouldn't go be with Jordan like I plan to but for the very first time, I found myself only thinking to go against my Mother's wishes.Too much have come between me and Jordan up until this point that I wasn't gonna let my own Mother be the stumbling block now.

    Jordan's P O VI was a mess.An emotional wreck at the same time a physical mess because my eyes were not only swollen and red from crying but were also darkened down to little above my chin with the smudges from my mascara.I was still in that same state pacing around the place when my door flung open again."Mom please...." I said out in a weak and broken voice without even turning to see who it was and next, I heard short quick steps reach me from behind and before I could even think to turn so I could see who it is, the person's arms wrapped me from behind.The matching best friend wristwatches we got for both our single asses some valentines ago that sat present on the person's wrist told me who it was and with teary eyes, I turned to face Her and cried into her shoulder while she slowly rubbed my back without saying a word."I'm so sorry." She whispered close to my ears and all I did was nod and wipe on my face with the back of my hand a little too violently."I don't know what

    Jordan's P O V I feel like life happened to me so fast and I must say it's particularly hard accepting my new reality but it stared me in the face. The little hug from Ava after I finished saying my last goodbyes to Dad was literally the only thing I needed at that point. I squeezed my little sister in my arms and was grateful for her existence. It feels as though she's my only gift from my father and I wished I brought her as much comfort as she did me. She's only just as old as I was when Dad left Mom and I in the first place so I alone knew how difficult it's gonna get and that too, seeing as it's a worse situation right now because he's never gonna come back, it really is gonna be a lot worse for her.Atleast, I clung unto the hope that he would return to me someday but she doesn't have a chance at that hope.She clearly knows he's never coming back. She slowly eased out from our embrace and I quickly wiped my face clean from tears with the back of my hand

    Adrian's P O VBlack has always been my favorite.But right now that I had it on alongside everyone else, it feels more like a plague.Ava's cute little dress didn't get a chance to shine because the look on her face was that of grave sadness.She's certainly the bravest girl ever but I still wished there was anything at all, just a single thing I could do to brighten her even if a little.My eyes left Ava for my Mom who looked to be the most affected by the turn of events.Her tear sunken eyes looked as red and broken as ever and all I could do was gaze. Ralph stood afar off with Brittany wearing somewhat matching expressions on their faces and Fred stood nearby them with his wife's face buried in his chest.I swallowed hard after carefully studying each of them.I found myself in distress but not so much that I couldn't notice Jordan wasn't anywhere in sight.I recalled the last place I had seen her and thought she could still be there and after I took a number of steps away from t

    Jordan's P O VFew minutes ago, I stood in place wondering why Adrian's supposedly Dead Father was standing right in front of us but seconds ago, My entire life flashed before my eyes when I saw his gun swing in my direction and he fired without warning.My life played before me in slow motion while I froze with my eyes closed waiting for what was about to come.My head was too busy to make out the number of voices around me that screamed out in horror but I heard them all screaming softly in the background of my head while my eyes were held firmly close.The place went silent and the shot was fired but I felt no impact from it.What had happened?I was more than certain he had aimed at me.More so, I heard and saw him fire.I slowly peeled my eyes open and the first person I saw through my slightly dizzy eyes was Adrian standing a distance opposite me and the look in his eyes looked like he literally was about to shed a good amount of tears. I looked from him to myself in search of

His Voice flooded my ears and I was struck with a serious brain cloud that left me Dazed for several minutes.I couldn't grasp what was happening and my swollen head didn't let me a chance to even try.How is he speaking to me right now?How can I see and hear him speak?How is he here?He- He's supposed to be Dead."How- How- How are....." I tried as much as I could to speak but my every utterance came forth as stutters."You must be Really surprised to see me. Well, let me tell you this. Real men never Die so easily." Came his response as though he could see the train of questions I had in my racing thoughts.I could tell I was conscious but I still told myself this is only one of my many nightmares borne from my traumatic experience with having him as A Father because there's no way he's actually here right now and smirking at me.His eyes left me and landed on my mother who seemed like she was soon to pass out where she cowered behind Anthony w

    Jordan's P O V The strange man who is the reason I'm being held captive moved away from me after having whispered close to my ears and he returned himself back to his wheelchair still with a disturbing expression on his face and everything about him was questionable. I mean, who uses a wheelchair when he walks perfectly fine. And why does he have a resting evil face? I watched the man look into his wristwatch then rolled away almost completely out of sight on his Mobile chair while I studied him intently still trying to place an identity on him but I couldn't agree with the growing thought in my head because the door was soon thrown open and a troop of people I very well recognized buzzed in. I couldn't keep my eyes focused on them all at the same time so I kept my eyes fixed on the one I had yearned for the whole night up until this moment and he also had his eyes directly on me since he barged in. His steps towards me increased greatly especially when he noticed

    Adrian's P O VMy verbal exchange with Ralph soon ended when we both followed Brittany out of the house and were met with a strange thing staring us all in the face."Is this how you recieve your mails?" I questioned as Brittany crouched down to pick up the little enveloped letter we walked out to meet right in front of the doorway after we stepped outside."Who sends mails when you could just text?" Ralph questioned while Brittany flipped the envelope in her hand back and forth probably in search of words but it was plainly blank."How did this get here?" She questioned to no one In particular and I frowned when a thought dropped in my head."This wasn't here while I got here. The real question should be, Who brought this here?" I pointed out and they both kept silent for seconds before Ralph rushed steps away from where we stood towards the curb and while at a spot, he turned his neck from left to right in search of anyone who could have possibly brought this."There's no one in sig

    Jordan's P O VMy eyes slowly fluttered open and what followed was a sharp groan that escaped my lips when my previously shut eyes came in contact with the light that invaded my sight.I should have been confused as to where the hell I found myself but surprisingly, my memories came to me alot faster than I had expected.I remember being hauled from where I stood by the school's yard and I also remember being thrown into the hideous looking van like a sack of potatoes but what I don't remember is the face of whosever sent a blow to my head nor do I remember what any of his colleagues that yanked me away look like thanks to the ski masks they had on at that time.This is the second time I'm finding myself in a situation like this just that this time, I'm all to myself and I had nothing to ponder upon as to why anyone would wanna abduct me.No reason I came up with made any sense at all and all I did as I sat there on the cold floor was slowly Blink my eyes open so I could behold the fa
