View MorePaige's POVIt's a weekend, and I'm going to the hospital with the children today, Sofya's surgery has been fixed, and she will be traveling tomorrow, so a little surprise party is being thrown for her before she leaves,"Are you kids not ready yet?" I yelled from the bottom of the stairs,"We are coming" Derek answered, followed by their little voices whispering to themselves,"Hurry" I replied before heading to the kitchen to get the food and snacks I packed up, Lisa should be here anytime from now she insisted on going with us,"We are done Mum" Alex called out from the door,"Okay then we should head out, your aunt Lisa will probably meet us there, we are already behind schedule," I said, ushering them towards the door, I would appreciate it if she would get there early, it's Grayson's first time meeting Alex and I don't know how he will react, I would appreciate the moral support,"Don't tell me you were planning to leave without me" her voice came in as I opened the door,"It wa
Jace’s POVMiserable is a nice way to put how I have been for the past 3 days, Paige is still being so cold and Jay won't stop pushing me to go visit mum. I have not seen her for 3 years now, so why has become such an issue,"Why have you been moodier than usual these past few days?" Brandon asked as we walked into my office,"It's nothing" I mumbled, increasing my pace to avoid his questions,"Tell that to someone just met you and who doesn't know you" he replied with a chuckle,"It's nothing serious just drop it" I insisted, I really don't want to talk,"So you won't talk to me, but you would talk to Paige" he teased, making me roll my eyes,"Don't let me remind me of instances where you would rather talk to Lisa than talk to me" I teased back with a small smile, and he smiled back with no argument, he knew what he just did and it worked,"I just can't shake this feeling off" I finally succumbed,"Which feeling if I may ask" he asked,"The feeling that something is wrong, Jay has al
Paige's POVThe commotion downstairs was enough to remind me that things have really changed in the past week, but my excitement of the day is the fact that Grace is finally back in town, and she will be here anytime soon,"Good morning Mum" Alex greeted as I got to the end of the stairs where he ran to me,"How are you, my boy?" I asked, ruffling his hair,"Very fine, Olivia still doesn't want to play with me" he whined,"She will come around, she is not the talking type, try harder, okay" I encouraged,"If you say so mum" he shrugged"Where is Aunt Lisa?" He asked, making me smile, he likes her,"She will be back in the evening" I answered, he nodded before heading back to where the others were playing,~~~~~~~~~~~"Breakfast kids" I hollered from the dining table,"Race you there" I heard Bryan yell before the sound of their tiny footsteps echoed in the hallway,"Don't hurt yourselves" I yelled, chuckling."Mum, Olivia won't let me have the last pancakes" Alex whined,"Don't be thi
Jace's POV"Have you finally come to your senses?" My dearest father said as I walked into his office he suddenly moved to the house,Brandon trailing closely behind"That you are nothing but a selfish bastard,yes"I lashed out immediately probably shocking him,"I am your father and you must accord me that respect" he commanded hitting his hand on the mahogany desk right in front of him like that was going to shake me,"Or what,you will manipulate me and ruin my life the more?" I asked seething,"What do you mean by that,I have done nothing but want the best for you my son and for the growth of my sons"he acted,"Tell that to who cares,I know what you did six years ago and for your information she's back in my life and I won't let you hurt her again,sometimes I wonder how I let you manipulated me so much that I hurt the woman I love" I lashed out ignoring the look on his face as I mentioned her,he knew what exactly I was talking about,Brandon heard right after all,"I didn't manipulate
Paige's POV"Lisa??" I asked shocked,I couldn't believe my eyes,I was staring at my best friend since childhood after six whole years,"Paige"she cried out engulfing me in a tight hug,"I am so sorry I didn't know,I would have known something was wrong,I didn't pay so much attention like I was supposed to"she cried on my shoulders,am I not the one supposed to apologize?"What are you apologizing for?" I asked confused,"Jace told me everything,why didn't you come to me,you shouldn't have left that way" she cried on,"I should be the one apologizing,I didn't really think how my disappearance will affect anybody, I was just so scared" I muttered as tears fell from my eyes, I missed her so much,"I don't blame you for anything"she answered still not letting go,"I would have taken a better decision,I just panicked" I said sadly,"I am really glad you are okay,where is my godchild please"she said looking around like she was actually expecting to see him,"In school" I answered sniffing,"
Jace's POV"Paige,you are okay,breathe baby,breathe" I soothed as she hyperventilated in my arms,she was having a panic attack and here I am also panicking with her,"Fuck" I cursed when it seemed like nothing was working,"Please breathe"I whispered trying to contain my fear,she seemed to be in another word of her own,"What the fuck is going on here?"I heard Brandon's voice from the the door but I didn't bother looking up still trying to get here to breathe,she was slipping in and out of consciousness muttering incoherent words to herself,"She's having a panic attack"another voice said,I know that voice and it definitely doesn't belong to Brandon, it doesn't even belong to a man,"Lisa??" I called out shocked,"Flesh and blood,now move she needs air"She ordered and I didn't even know I did just that and let her take over,Lisa handled the whole situation so well I felt so stupid couldn't even do any of the things she did,when did Paige start having panic attacks???...
Paige's POVThe children were at school and I was frantically pacing my room trying to give myself moral support from anywhere for what I was about to do,I don't even know why this was what came to mind,but I really want to help Sofya ,at this point I needed someone to tell me I was doing the right things but Grace travelled with her husband for a family vacation and I don't want to disturb her with calls about my problems but I am really panicking here.I stood in front of the mirror for the umpteenth time this morning trying to come up with the right outfit,I needed to look professional, I don't want people looking at me like I am under them that would reduce my confidence, I finally settled for a black pencil skirt and a flowered blouse and flat shoes,I couldn't bring myself to eat anything so I forfeited breakfast. ~~~~~~~~~~~"I am here to see Jace Russo" I told the receptionist after much mental encouragement outside,"Do you have an appointment?"
Paige's POVIt's been two days since that ugly incident as I like to call it,and I was driving down to the hospital to see Sofya then to get Alex and back home it was the same way i handled it yesterday,I could already feel his absence and I hated it,I am wondering how he has actually respected my decision up till now because it's lack of disrespect that caused this in the beginning anyways,maybe he is cooking up something or he just realized what he realized 6 years ago and decided he was done with me,I felt that familiar ache in my chest as that thought crossed my mind and I got even angrier,how could my body still betray me in such a manner, I wasn't supposed to feel anything where Jace is concerned not this emptiness and definitely not the sexual tension,I wasn't supposed to get so turned on but I couldn't help it,I felt his eyes boring holes into my body before I even saw him,I knew he was there but I didn't even think he would have the audacity to actually make himself known,I g
Jace's POV"Where's your mum?"I asked Alex immediately I noticed my 1 hour was up,in as much as I knew I wanted to stay longer I had to respect her decision,it's the least I can do right now,maybe one day she will agree to stay in a room with me for a long period of time cause she has been avoiding it since the day I saw her,"Somewhere in her room"He replied totally distracted by the show going on that he didn't even bother to look at me when he was talking or to see if he could help me call her, I tried fighting it but the other side of me won and I saw myself heading that direction,she is probably going to kill me for this,I could have asked Alex to inform her that I was leaving but I really wanted to just see her face again because I am very sure she won't have come out to see me, I could hear the slow soft music from her room and her voice singing along,my heart constricted and a feeling of nostalgia hit me hard ,she will never change,I moved a little closer but not to close fo
