"This looks very pretty. I'm impressed" Sara commented, her eyes shifting towards the decor. I had to send Asif something for this.

"As you should be. This place is always packed" I bluffed while picking the menu off the table. I did not have any slightest idea about the restaurant. Asif pulled it in the last moment and texted me the address along with the reservation details.

Sara hummed, "I can see"

My eyes flicked through the menu when I heard Sara huff something under her breath. Raising my head I looked at her and noticed that she was glaring at her phone.

"Is everything alright?"

Flustered she dropped the phone from her hand and collected herself. She rolled her eyes as she picked the cloth from the table and huffed, leaning back against the chair.

"The wedding planner I was talking to is not available" She complained, her phone still on the table. My nose flared at that and I furrowed my eyebrows at her. Wedding planner?

    I sighed as my eyes shifted towards Aiden. He was still angry about me not taking him to that new restaurant. Ashton seriously need to stop teasing him. It's me who has to pay the price later. Aiden had no idea that he was at my mom's place for a sleepover because I was out eating nachos without him. In my defence, I thought he was happy about it. But I should have talked to him. "Aiden stop pouting it's been a day now," I said in an exasperated tone as my shoulders sagged. Aiden was a stubborn child, the kind who gets whatever he wants. And he took it to an extreme at times but then again he was easy to convince sometimes. Hot or cold. Nothing in the middle. He crossed his arms, glaring at the television in front of him. As always he was watching Home Alone. For some reason, it was his favourite. I narrowed my eyes towards the clock on the wall. A plan formed in my head. "Fine be that way! I'll call grandma to watch over you while I go to the store. Alone" I calmly said

    As soon as Edward left the store I turned to glare at Ashton. Why did he do that? Call me babe in front of Edward. He must be definitely thinking that there was something going on between us. But isn't that what I wanted? Maybe he can finally back off and drop his persuasion. "Aiden" I narrowed my eyes at him. He just snuggled closer to Ashton, his body completely clinging on like a koala. "Let him be" Ashton shrugged while tightening his grip around the five-year-old. Aiden had a flair for being upset over tiny things so I wasn't surprised that he was avoiding me again. "How did you find us?" I asked as Ashton pushed the cart ahead. Even though I try to take it away from him he was adamant. My arms brushed against his as I came around to stand beside him. "Don't know I thought Aiden must be getting some candy" Ashton laughed prompting Aiden to giggle in his arms but he ducked his head away from me. My eyes were trained on both of them and I couldn't stop thinking. What

    /Edward's POV/ Sara was in the office. And for some reason that did not sit well with me. Asif was trying to understand what was going on the other side of the office but he failed. The moment Aria arrived in the office Sam informed me while he was going to get her coffee. He had a nervous look on his face. Everything inside me was trying not to snap at Sara for entering the office without asking. Last night she was busy trying to get an appointment for something as she was leaving to see her sister. For a moment that news delighted me but then I felt guilty for thinking that way. "I'll just go by myself " I huffed, standing up from the chair. A squeak echoed at the sudden movement but I ignored it. Asif was standing by the door but when he noticed me he moved away. "Is she still in there?" I licked my lips as I stood in the doorway. From my current position, I could see Arias office. But the blinds were closed so I could not see anything that was going inside. "Yes, s

    /Edwards POV/ The click of the lock was the only warning we both got before stepping inside the room. Aria met my eyes as I pushed her backwards into my room. The door slammed shut and I spun her around, her back pressed against my broad chest. Her hips pushed back against mine and she let out a soft moan as if she felt the hard line of my erection against the cleft of her arse, long and thick. "You're so impatient" I whispered, my voice hot and husky against her ear as she began rocking against me. "Can you blame me?" She cried "You want my cock?" "Mmh" She whined, leaning her head back on my shoulder. It only spurred me to lean down and kiss her roughly. My eyes shut tight as I remembered the moment that led us here. Aria was adamant on not drinking anything but the fruity cocktail. And I respected that. Surprisingly she was eager to keep me company rather than escape like she always does. After one sip of that fruity drink, she changed her mind. Gripping

    He surged forward, hands scrabbling as he clashed our lips together, not even waiting for me to say anything. It was a filthy kiss, one of teeth and tongue and such bliss that I felt weak in the knees. Edward licked into my mouth and I moaned, pressing himself up against his thigh, desperate for the friction that I needed. My whole body was so deep, so invested in just this one kiss that I could feel my head growing dizzy, another breathy moan passing through until he was suddenly pulling back. "W-What-" I slurred, adjusting to the light in the room but he only stepped further away, removing that delicious friction and making me weep with need. "N-No, please. I need-" I tried to protest, but the words were stolen from my throat as I was flipped around quickly, head spinning. "Do you want me to take care of you or not?" He whispered, pressing against my back as he dipped his head down to my ear, the few inches that separated us in height incredibly evident now that we were this c

    The bright light on my face made my lips twitch. Groaning I tried to move away only to realise that someone was holding me by my waist. Dread settled inside my stomach and I refused to turn around. Maybe it was just a dream I thought. But even after opening my eyes when I noticed the same oak floor and dark curtains it sank inside me that I was in an unfamiliar room. Taking a few deep breaths I managed to look down the sheets only to realise that I was stark naked. My eyes clenched shut at that. How was I so stupid to get wasted at my boss party? Slowly and carefully I managed to untangle myself and turn around. A low whistle escaped my lips when I noticed Edward sleeping with his mouth open. Fuck! Out of all people, how could I manage to sleep with the same person even after six years? I wanted to slap myself but I held back. Supporting my back against the headboard I groaned feeling my head throb. I blinked my eyes a few times to get rid of the hazy image. My eyes felt he

    My lips pressed together as he waited for my answer. I couldn't think anything straight, couldn't even manage to look at his face without guilt crawling my body. How was he so calm about it? Why was he not scared about facing his fiancee? "You're upset" He mumbled, turning to face me. Of course, I was upset. I was angry at myself and how stupid I was to lose control and sleep with him again. "Aria" He softly whispered, his voice hesitant as he tried to come closer. It spurred me even more than I could imagine. Unable to hold myself I opened my mouth. "Of course I am fucking upset" My voice was shrill and loud even to my own ears. The throbbing in my head was intense and my own voice was ringing in my ears. It made me wince. Edward looked like he was slapped, obviously not expecting me to answer him. It had to be said because I was letting myself fall into the same trap again. Only this time his fiancee was involved. He tugged at his hair, tucking them behind before star

    /Ashton's POV/ I tried not to look at my cell phone for the hundredth time. It was driving me crazy not knowing where Aria was. She usually called whenever she is free or when she is angry with someone. And usually, I get a text back at least for calling her. But nothing. My phone didn't light up since last night with her text or calls. The last thing I remember was her text about going to some party. "Dr Ashton?" The head nurse knocked on the door. Tearing my eyes off the phone I focused my attention on her. As always she stood at the edge of the door with her hand tucked behind her back. "Come in please" She shook her head, "In a hurried doctor. Just wanted to remind you that you have to be on rounds in ten minutes" My eyes immediately moved towards the clock. It was ten in the morning and I could already feel the tiredness seeping in my bones. All because I couldn't sleep last night and had a late shift. Mustering a smile I nodded my head at her. "Thank you, Juli

    "But Dad! If we don't leave now, all the good candy will be gone!" Aiden whined, twisting his mouth while he hopped excitedly on his feet. Edward let out a sigh, blinking at our son before looking at me for help. I shrugged in response. I did it every year. The same dance with him and it was tiring. “Aiden listen to me-" I tuned out their conversation, focusing on the batter in the bowl. The cupcakes needed to be ready for the party so that they can finally appreciate my baking skills. My mom in particular. "But dad!" Edward turned towards me again. I rolled my eyes a bit. That's all his fault really. He indulged our son too much even after all these years. At the age of eight, Aiden only grew up to be more sassy—a quality he inherited from me. That’s what Edward says every time he looses against his son. "Okay that’s enough you two.” I cleared my throat. “Aiden Edward Milano eat your dinner, or you'll be grounded in your room and won’t have any candy.” "Mom

    I couldn't stop the fat tears from rolling down my cheeks. It was one thing for Edward to be cruel but letting Sara talk to me like that? How could Edward humiliate me like that? I genuinely believed him when he said he broke up with Sara. The ring on her finger was a clear indication that he was still very much with her. And like a fool I am I let go of Ashton for someone like him. This is karma. I laughed bitterly while wiping the tears away. Driving through the streets while it was raining felt a reflection of myself, the storm of emotions running through me. On the way back home I saw his name flash multiple times on the screen but did not bother to pick up. Minutes later, I was in the parking lot of my building and exhaled a long breath. The last thing I wanted was to cry on the way to my apartment. Wiping furiously at my cheeks I slammed the door to the car, locking it before rushing inside. The babysitter was looking after Aiden so as soon as she saw me enter, s

    /Sara's POV/ When I found out that Edward was so serious about his son that he took them to meet his parents I had to do something. Nothing was working my way these days. Ever since he found out about Aiden, things began slipping from my fingers one by one. It’s all Aria. I should have been more cruel to her from the start, made sure she never sees him in the same light again. Believe me I tried. All these years I was able to lie and keep him all to myself but that Aria had to ruin everything. My face flamed with fury as soon as I remembered how he had the audacity cheat on me with her and later throw me out of the house. I endured everything he put me through as his assistant, pleased him in every way possible only to get discarded like this. Even after all the things he did I was still crazy about him. I knew that I had to do something to get him back and it would be my final shot. I tried not to make any sound as I sneaked in his bedroom. He was still asleep and as

    /Edward's POV/ It was out. Finally. The pain of hiding it from her was swallowing me from inside. How long can I pretend that it was alright? The words were swirling inside me, always at the tip of my tongue but never having the courage to get them out. Breaking up with Sara made me notice things clearly. I could not keep it inside me anymore. It was selfish of me to do that even after knowing she’s dating Ashton. Better say it out when it’s in early stage rather than later. One thing I was sure is it would have gotten out one way or another. There’s only so many times I can keep getting away with it. The sound of my heart beating along with our shallow breaths was the only thing that I could hear. The silence in the room was deafening, almost scary that it made me want to say something. Aria was quiet and her silence was burning me inside. As those words left my mouth I could feel instant relief knowing that I was not caring the burden of keeping it for myself. From past

    At Ashtons cold touch on my shoulder, I almost jerked in the spot, taking few seconds to recover. Then it dawned on me that we had already reached our destination. All throughout the car ride, I was occupied with thoughts, all of them leading to Edward. For some reason I could not stop thinking about how he did not tell me about his breakup with Sara. I deserved to know about it. Not only because we were parenting Aiden together but as a courtesy. He knew way too much about me and always sulked if I glossed over any minor detail but felt absolutely important to not share such a valuable piece of information. But why was I so affected by the whole thing? It was silly how my insides couldn't stop fluttering from the moment I heard about it. What was this strange feeling? For the sake of it, I decided not to put my finger on it, choosing to focus on important things. "You okay?” Ashton quietly asked as he tried to tug on my arm. When I met his eyes I could see that he was genui

    /Edward's POV/ I was on cloud nine when Aria called me to look after Aiden in her absence. It meant that she finally trusted me enough to leave him alone with me. Her doubts where slowly fading away and I couldn't be any happier. She had every reason to be hesitant and nervous after all it was my fault for leaving her alone all those years ago. When I heard that the reason she was allowing me to take our son was that she was going out with Ashton. I should have known that she was actually dating him and did not make it up as I thought. Truly that night was nothing for her which made it even more painful to swallow. I tried not to dwell on it as I picked Aiden. He was someone who could genuinely make me feel better. The entire week I could make it through you just said the hope that he was there. Sara had been persistent asking me to take her back. She was never like this. It felt like she had changed into the obsessive person who wanted me at any cost. That scared me because

    It had been a week since Aiden found out about Edward—his father. Things drastically changed and as much as I feared them to have gone wrong they did not. At least for now. I thought bitterly. Edward was trying to involve himself as much as he could. His effort was something that took my parents by surprise as well. One thing that made me realise that it’s serious was the dedication he put into showing up. Every morning he came at exact eight, had breakfast with Aiden and then insisted on dropping him to school. And in a different car everyday at that. Once Aiden found out that his father had money and lots of it, he made it a point to enjoy it. I was all against it, not wanting to entertain his tantrum of having a different car drop him every day but Edward spoiled him. He was making up for the lost time—basically buying everything he could possibly can. It was ridiculous. Aiden’s room was filled with boxes and boxes of legos, some he did not even had the chance to open be

    My mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water. Why did things not work my way for a change? I thought under my breath as I took in Ashton’s appearance. Never had I seen him so furious before, body language taut and lips pinched in a straight line as he acknowledged Edward in the room. If looks could kill he would have been six feet under by now. The question hung in the air for a few seconds, making the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I was hyper aware of his eyes on me, the need he had to know the answer. But I was hesitant to talk about it in front of Aiden. The last thing a five year old kid needed was even more drama for a day. He already had too much to deal with on his plate. “Aria.” He dropped his voice low, inching closer to me as if he thought I did not hear him after the first time. My eyes clenched shut. “I heard.” I swallowed the lump in my throat, hands falling to my sides helplessly. “Can we talk inside, please?" I softly asked. He stared a

    The atmosphere around felt tense for no reason at all. I had no idea what Edward was going to tell him. Or what he had been planning all along. He looked dull, even though he was trying to put a front. I could see the bags under his eyes like he had not been sleeping well. They were noticeable for quite a while now but I didn’t want to broach into the topic. For the first time I noticed how resigned he appeared, almost deflated with his shoulders hunched as he tried to muster as much energy as possible. Did something happen the night before? I thought to myself. Maybe he was just as nervous thinking about introducing himself to Aiden’s life. For a hot second I sympathised with him and how difficult it must have been for him to come into senses with the new reality and accept it. Edward was taking it well, way better than I would have reacted and tried to make adjustments so that he could meet Aiden. That’s something I can never deny. He truly cared that he’s there for him and wan
