Six Years Ago I couldn't hold back my tears as I realized that the only boy I let into my life would be the same person to break me, "You can't deny everything just like that, not after everything we have been through" I cried, trying to fight the truth that was staring at me, His lazy gaze fell on me slowly from where he stood a dark look in his eyes I had never seen before, "Well, watch me, Paige, and point of correction we have not been through anything together but it was fun playing with you though" he shot, I could feel my heart shattering into so many tiny pieces at his words, "We need to do something about this baby, our baby" I yelled, letting the tears stream down my face, "Your baby, not ours" he coldly retorted, crashing down on the sofa behind him as if the gravity of our situation weighed nothing on him, " You are not really expecting me to kill our child, right?" I questioned already dreading his answer, he had already mentioned it so why am I expecting a change of mind, he wouldn't have even mentioned it if he had not thought about it, "Anything you do with your child is none of my business" he shot at me, his words like a shock to my system, "You can't deny sleeping with me and you know deep down this baby is yours, so why are you doing all this, Jace, why?" I cried out in pain, "Look, I accept that I slept with you but I definitely did not get you pregnant. Why don't you go and ask all your numerous boyfriends who released their shit into you, maybe one of them would own up to it" he said in a bored tone, this has to be a dream right? "What does that mean? You know very well that I have no other boyfriend apart from you, so what are you even saying?" I asked unable to hide my shock at his words, "Oh please spare me all the melodrama. Whenever you are done with all of this, you can leave and shut the door behind you" he dismissed walking towards the bathroom leaving me with tears streaming down my face and a broken heart, "Just so you know, if anyone asks you who is responsible for that child you're carrying and you dare call my name, I promise you I will deny ever knowing you. And trust me when I say, I'll make your life miserable" he threatened just before disappearing into the bathroom, slamming the door loudly behind him. I was left alone to my fate letting my silent sobs grow into loud cries, I should have listened to Mum. ***** I have never dreaded going home so much up until this moment, I can't face my mother like this, not after the promise I made to her, she can't relive what my father did to her with me. "Mum, I'm home" I yelled out my usual greeting hoping she wasn't home, she couldn't see me this way she would know something was wrong without me even needing to tell her. Much to my relief, I was greeted with silence, which should give me enough time to come up with a plan, I should have known letting Jace in would only end up in tears and pregnant at 16. College is in two months and I can't go to college pregnant. They will revoke my admission for sure but I can't kill my child either, I will never forgive myself. Sitting on the floor of my room, tears continuously streaming down my face, I stared at the picture Mum and I had taken only a few days ago at my graduation ceremony, she was so happy I was finally going to college as I have always dreamt, her little princess was finally growing up, she cried so much that day I thought something was wrong, but she assured me she was fine, she was only happy with our progress and how my father's absence had not turned me into a bitter sad child. She has always been there for me working two jobs to ensure I got the best in life, she can't find out about this baby, it will break her, and I can't do that to her. With that thought in mind and a heavy heart, I made a big decision. Grabbing a box and a small bag, I packed anything I could carry. I won't let my mother suffer the same fate she suffered 16 years ago when my Dad left her, and with college in two months I won't be able to hide this baby for long, so it is best to leave. Taking one last look around my room, I said a silent goodbye to my safe space, Mum always said I could make any adjustments whenever I felt it wasn't to my taste anymore, she always wanted me to be comfortable and I was but I can't bask in that anymore, I have a baby to take care of now. Entering my mother's room, I inhaled her lingering scent one last time, basking in its comfort. Leaving a note on her neatly made bed, I tried to gather my courage, I was going out to the world all alone, "I am sorry, Mum but this is for the best. I love you, today, tomorrow, and always, please take care of yourself for me, I will be back one day when I am sure I can face you, you will always be in my heart and I hope you will forgive me someday" it read. Throwing on a hoodie to cover my face, I headed out with no particular destination in mind, getting to the train station, I got into a train heading south into an uncertain future.Jace's POVIf Paige had any anger or resentment towards me after this morning, it seems to be far away right now. We were currently in the kitchen singing at the top of our lungs while trying to put together a little late breakfast for ourselves. Karla had come up earlier to inform us that she would be taking the kids out and then she was forcing Lisa out with them too since we had decided to only focus on ourselves for the day. I have not been so grateful to have her around until this morning, because now we have the whole house to ourselves and I will not be letting a day like this waste.Paige stood at the center of the kitchen with nothing but my shirt on dancing and singing her heart out using the spatula to mimic a microphone "It's been so long since I saw you dance this hard" I murmured into her ears as I closed in on her pulling her back to mine, and letting her dance on me."It's been so long since I let myself dance and enjoy it this much too" she replied, gladly accepting
Paige's POV I stared at the bedside clock that read 10:30am, It had been two hours since we had sent the kids down to meet my mum and even though we both knew they would be asking questions now, we both didn't make any attempt to move. Personally, this was the safest I had felt in years and I don't think I am ready to end the moment so soon. We had unconsciously fallen into a rhythm. He drew small circles on the side of my hip right where my only tattoo rested while I slowly trailed down his chest tracing the tattoo on his left bicep, where his own tattoos rested, but unlike me, he had two, he had gotten another one since the last time.The first tattoo was a half heart we had both gotten together back in high school, the day he had asked me out. He had wanted to assure me so badly, that he was going to stay, that wherever any of us found ourselves, we would never be complete until we had found our way back together. I remember being so scared that day but Jace being Jace distra
Paige's POV"I am so sorry, Cupcake, I didn't mean to scare you, I promise I am not going anywhere" Jace murmured pulling away a little, his hands still wrapped around my waist."I can't leave you ever, I still need a whole lifetime to make things up to you and show you up much you mean to me" he continued his lips trailing down to my neck."You..." Kiss"Are..." Suck"Mine..." Kiss"Never forget that, Cupcake" he concluded as his lips got to my collarbone."I will try not to" I muttered trying to hide my smile at the way he stiffened."That's not enough, Cupcake, I need you to know that at all times" he whispered holding me tighter like I was going to disappear any second from now. "I am here for you and the twins, to be everything I have not been all these years" he assured his attention drifting back to my body as he tweaked my already hard nipples through my silk gown."You are making it quite difficult to pay any attention to your words" I murmured running my hands through his h
Paige's POV"No, add more mustache for Mum" I heard someone whisper close to my ears making me turn in my sleep."A few more minutes please" I groaned attempting to move again before I felt something, well more like someone hovering over me, breathing lightly on my face."What the..." I was about to curse, shooting my eyes open, but I stopped halfway as I saw an excited Alex staring back at me with a wide grin on his face."What's happening?" I asked in surprise attempting to sit up, something heavy on my waist weighed me down."You have got to be kidding me" I groaned, rolling my eyes. I stared at his arms safely wrapped around my waist and I couldn't help but feel a sense of safety."What are you boys up to now?" I asked chuckling as they both stared at me with wide eyes like they had been caught robbing a bank."Nothing" Alex quickly spoke up, grabbing his brother's hand as they backed up slowly."Alvin?" I called out in a warning voice as I noticed the hidden excitement in hi
Jace's POVI could make out her trembling shoulders in the dark from where I stood below the stairs, her sobs filling the hallways. She was hurting and I couldn't do anything about it, I couldn't even tell, I was so focused on trying to impress her with dates and gifts that I forgot what really mattered."Come on my child, let's get you to bed," Karla said softly to an already half-asleep Paige."Here, let me help" I quickly offered coming out from where I had been watching from."It's about time you showed up" Karla murmured rolling her eyes at me but she still let me help with Paige."I'm sorry, I had a very important call to attend to" I quickly said following Paige's earlier lie, might as well side her."Hmm, I see" Karla hummed in disbelief, if she had anything to say she didn't mention it, it was quite obvious she didn't believe me anyway.I carefully placed Paige on the bed ignoring the disapproving look Karla had on her face, I can't let her know Paige was the one who turned m
Paige's POV" Thank you for tonight, Jace, I loved every single Moment" I spoke up immediately. We entered the car with a permanent smile on my face. He was the perfect gentleman all night and he made sure I was comfortable and content all through, even when a few of his business associates who happened to have been at the restaurant came to speak with him his attention was still on me, he lay his claim without saying it that the men quickly got the memo."You are welcome, Cupcake, I am ready to do anything to keep that beautiful smile of yours on your face" He replied beaming at me." We will see about that but for now let's just go home, I am exhausted" I groaned." At your service, My queen," He said with a curt nod before starting the car."Whatever" I murmured, rolling my eyes. ~~~~"You know, I fancy your Mum's idea of more grandbabies a lot" Jace spoke up as the car slowly came to a stop, we had made a quick stop to buy a few snack
Paige's POV" Am I missing something?" Mum asked walking into my room as I applied lipstick."Something like?" I asked smiling."What's the occasion?" She questioned standing behind me where I sat in front of my mirror."Nothing serious, Just dinner with Jace" I shrugged."Just dinner and you are all dressed up ?"Mum chided giving me a knowing look." I am not all dressed up, Mum" I countered rolling my eyes."Sure, you are not, a black dinner gown this fancy and makeup is so simple "She continued." Mum" I groaned but the smile on my face remained as I remembered Jace's earlier text about the gown."Jace insisted I should wear this particular gown and I like it a lot too " I admitted straightening out the little creases that had formed on the gown.The gown is made of silk making it extra comfortable, diamonds adorned the front of the gown making it stand out, and the slit at the side gave the perfect view of my thighs, not exposing much but exposing enough to make Jace drool." It's
Paige's Pov"Seems like Someone is in a really good mood this morning "Lisa spoke up as I walked into the sitting room."Why wouldn't She be after all the noises we heard last night" Jay said making me blush as last night's event replayed in my head."I have no idea what you both are talking about " I denied."Sure you don't, we Should be expecting our little anger earlier than we thought," Mum said this time walking in from the kitchen with a hand towel in her hand slowly drying her hands."Thank you for helping with breakfast,Mum" I appreciated beaming at her."Always, my child, after all, you are going to give me another grandchild soon," Mum said smiling like I already told her I was pregnant." I will advise you all to stop With your fantasies, we didn't what you all are thinking we did" I defended." Sure you didn't, we should ask Jace, he will be more honest with us, Where is he anyway?" Jay asked."Yeah, he didn't come down for breakfast and neither did you, so if you are her
Jace's POV."Thanks for making it home in time for dinner" Paige thanked me as I walked into her room."You don't need to thank me, I owe it to you all to be home for dinner, and from now on, I promise to be home on time for dinner, any day I have extra work I will either bring it home or postpone it, Family first always " I promised."Thank you, this will mean a lot to the kids" She replied."Only the Kids?" I asked Smirking as I walked further into the room, my gaze fixed on her little frame on the bed." Yes," She answered, avoiding my eyes."I don't think so" I smirked as I got to the foot of the bed where her feet were." I don't understand" She murmured attempting to draw her legs back but I was fast enough to grab them."Not so fast, sweetheart" I cooed Pulling her towards me." I should go check on the twins," She said to pull away but she only helped me pull her closer to me." Don't worry they are fast asleep, I made sure of that, in fact, we are the only ones awake" I said
