JAMIE

Oh my God, I could just die. Was what I thought when I looked at myself in the mirror. I was rocking a red dress that was a little below the knee and trying my best to contain my exciting emotions.

Dinner with Mason.

I was excited about tonight, I was excited about seeing him after our few days apart. Those days felt like forever. A part of me was really worried about how this dinner will go. We didn't exactly leave things off on a good note when he left so I still don't know where we stand.

"That dress looks stunning on you. Red is so your colour."Sara grinned."I think you should accessorise with gold. Those two work really well together."

"Let's move onto shoes next then."I turned and looked in the mirror again. I hope he likes

    MASONI walked out of the airport and into the waiting black Mercedes. It was July now, almost a year and a half since I left New York City and my life behind me. Everything still looked the same to me as it did before I left, yet life was completely different. I was different! At least that's what I've been telling myself. All that time I spent trying to find myself again, it wasn't all for nothing. I wouldn't be back if I wasn't a changed man. "It's been a long time,Son."My Father said, from the other side of the back seat. "How have you been--where have you been?" "Everywhere, I didn't stay put for too long." I turned my head and

    JAMIEWhen I looked up and saw his face, at first I thought my eyes were deceiving me. That was until I pinched myself, most likely hard enough to leave a mark. He's here- He's really here. Why? It's been so long, so much time has passed and so much has changed. I put him behind me but now he's back, he had only just spoken a word but seeing his face was enough to drag all my anger to the surface. Already I felt like a kettle on the stove, almost at it's boiling point. "Mason Knight..."I whispered. "Thee Mason Knight, The

    JAMIEThe wanderer has finally returned!!They're not happy about it. They're my best friends, they have a right to be worried about him being back. He left, so easily, like I didn't matter to him at all. They were there to pick up the pieces.Carmen and Ethan stuck by me just like they always do. They were my support through the toughest moments of my life, I know more than anything else that that will never change.Unfortunately I can't say the same for Mason Knight. I don't know if he's changed, I hope he has purely for himself, but I don't see it happening. It was stupid of me to think that in the past. I won't make that mistake again!!"What are you going to do about the dinner?"Harry asked, grabbing my attention from the people that were passing by the window of the coffee shop.In thought I had become distracted by the people that were passing by, rushing to

    MASONI can't believe it!! All this time I've been gone, travelling the world trying to figure my shit out, I never knew what I had left behind.. A Daughter!! I leaned back against the wall of the elevator."This can't be true!"This isn't me, I'm not Father material. I don't know the first thing about raising a child. I stepped out of the elevator feeling the rage, as I walked towards my Father's office. How could he not tell me about this? I've seen more of him than anyone since I've been back, how could he not say something. I pushed open the door to my Father's office and walked inside. I saw that he was already gone.

    JAMIEI looked down at the binder that I was holding in my arms. The Montgomery's had added 4 extra tables of 6 to their anniversary party overnight. Luckily I was equipped to deal with this kind of situation at last minute.Mrs Montgomery's turned to me and smiled."Is that okay, Darling?""Of course."I smiled back."I penciled it in for 4 extra table. We just need a decision on napkin colours, other than that we're pretty much set for your special day."Mr Montgomery chuckled."I'll leave this one to you, Dear.""I assumed you would."She looked at him adoringly. I found it cute that after 50 years together they were this much in love. It makes me think of my own Mom and Dad."Perfect, I'll go us a couple of sample colours."I left the Montgomery's to chat while I grabbed my napkins from the office. Five minutes later I was back but there was one other person with them.

    JAMIEBrent had finally shown his face, but a part of me wished that he didn't. Either way the night will end with Carmen upset because of him. He always manages to put her down in some way, but of course she just laughs it off and acts like it doesn't bother her.He's not a good guy!!Brent's not right for her.. I don't think he cares about her, at least not in the way he should do as a future husband. Carmen's my best friend and I want to protect her, but I don't think she'll see it like that if I express my true feelings."I'll have the steak and a whisky neat." Brent closed his menu and handed it back to the waiter."I'll have.."Carmen started, whilst looking down at her menu."She will have the caesar salad."Brent looked at Carmen."You have a wedding dress to fit into. We don't want you piling on the pounds before the big da

  • Penelope    CHAPTER 7: STUCK IN THE MIDDLE

    JAMIE He wasn't happy about it, just like I wasn't. My Father wasn't all that happy about Mason Knight showing his face, after everything he's done. He wasn't happy about him being back in my life, nor Penelope's either. Because of this, I was the one facing of wrath of Clay Harris. I guess Mason will be too if my Parents don't leave before he gets here. "I'm not happy about this, Jamie. No, I don't like it!"He shook his head. Of course i pulled a face, knowing exactly what he was going to say. His every word. It's the same thing my Father always says when he doesn't like a situation.

    MASON"He does a good job.. He works hard." My father stated."A good job?"I shook my head with a chuckled."I like Eoin, but there's more than a handful of typos on this page alone. We shouldn't have to keep him on just because he's family.""I think we owe him that much after everything he's done. He was the one that stepped in when you weren't around, Remember?""I bet it was such an inconvenience to his life."I replied, sarcastically. When my father didn't reply I rested back in my chair with a sigh."It's your choice if you want to keep him on. You're the boss here.""When the time comes the business will be passed on to you. It'll be good to keep some people around that you can trust."Trust.. Not likely!! I don't do trust. I'm just not that guy that puts his trust in others. That's never been me. I've never been that man.

    JAMIE"Mom-Mom!"I called out as I walked through her hallway towards the kitchen. I heard nothing back. Usually, I would hear the clattering of plates as she put them away in the cupboard or her singing along with the radio so loud she wouldn't hear me.Where is she?I walked into the kitchen and no one was in sight, which was very unusual for the Harris household. I walked further towards the kitchen island and pulled out my phone to call her.My Mom's car is parked out front, she wouldn't usually go out without her car because her knees get sore if she walks a long distance. She wouldn't be with my father, he's in work at this hour.Her phone rang aloud and the tiny hairs on the back of my neck stood up. I instantly had a bad feeling, you know when you can just sense that something

    MASONWas this it for us?I was sitting behind my desk for what felt like a lifetime, my body was aching from sitting in the same position for hours on end. I haven't left my office since midday. My laptop screen was in front of me, I was trying to work but I couldn't. All I could think about was her.Her hair, her lusciously plump lips, her eyes so big and brown. With or without clothes she was perfect either way.Two nights out of her bed and I'm fucking sleep deprived. Usually, Jamie would rest with her head on my chest and the majority of the time that's the way it would stay until the sun rose. Now I sleep alone and I don't like it.I threw my pen down on my desk and reclined back in my chair. My head is fucked. I can't do anythin

    JAMIESid and Barb had renewed their wedding vows in a rustic style ceremony and now the party was in full swing. The band was playing sweet music on the stage, while couples danced on the lit up dance floor in front of it.The garden was lit up with fairy lights above us and amongst the trees and tables of 6 were scattered to the sides of the dance floor for those who wanted to sit and chat.It was late evening now and the sun was beginning to set, bringing an end to the perfect day that Barb and Sid had been planning for months. All this effort that they put into this special day and it goes by so quick.Over the years I've heard many brides express how that didn't enjoy their own wedding, that it went by so fast and there was too much stress. I didn't w

  • Penelope    CHAPTER 31:NAPA AND THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM

    MASONI took hold of her wavy blonde hair wrapping it around my hand, thrusting harder and faster as we both drew closer. I was watching her in the floor-length mirror in the corner of the room, her facial expression of enjoyment every time I slammed into her from behind and the way her breasts moved with every thrust.I never expected to be doing this on my lunch break, but the opportunity presented itself and I couldn't resist. Despite the 2 pm meeting that I'm probably going to be late for, I couldn't stop myself!I reached my hand around rubbing her clit and causing her to moan even louder. I was still holding her little black thong to the side of her toned ass with my other hand."Fuck!!"I groaned, unable to contain how turned on I was t

    JAMIEThe clock ticked closer to 5 pm, closer to the end of the workday. The thought of a long hot bath with a naked man has kept me going the entire day.Speaking of a naked man, Mason is picking me up in 15 minutes as per his orders. He doesn't want me being out alone so I'm basically escorted everywhere I go. He's lucky he's gorgeous — otherwise, I might not stick up with his crappy rules!"I'm leaving now, Jamie," Sam said, as he walked around the reception desk. He was pulling his jacket on over his work uniform."We should plan something soon — I haven't seen much of you lately.""Sure, Text me. We can work something out.""See you tomorrow then. Don't forget it's your turn to bring the coffee and doughnuts."He shouted back and winked at me. I chuckled, but that laug

    JAMIE"She's not even here. I knew you were lying. Did you even tell her at all?"I turned my head and asked him.Brent walked towards me in a way that made me feel intimidated so I took a couple of steps back. He boxed me against the wall."Did you really think I was going to tell her? I'm not going to lose everything because of one mistake.""It's not one mistake. You've cheated on her more than once."He smirked."Oh really, And what makes you think that?"He waited for my reply but I didn't give him one."I'm guessing Mason has something to do with it.""I wish there was nothing to tell. You can't blame me because you cheated on her. She deserves to know the truth, Brent.""What makes you think she's going to believe anything you say, huh? I didn't want to do this because you're her friend but you've given me no

    MASONI dialled Jamie's number for the third time, but just like the last two, there was no answer. I've grown impatient waiting for her for the past 30 minutes. I wish she would just pick up her phone for once, it's not as if she's never on it.Where is she?"Jamie, Where are you? I've been here waiting for you for awhile now. Just call me back — or come back to the room would be even better."I hung up the phone and sat on the bed with a sigh.I lit 50 fucking candles for nothing!!It was 10 minutes later before the door to the hotel room opened and I heard her heels on the floorboards. I got up from the bed and walked out of the room."Jamie..."She walked into the living area and threw her bag down on the c

    JAMIE"I can't believe the wedding is tomorrow."I grinned as I grabbed the bags from the booth of Mason's fancy car. I couldn't help but notice how unexcited he was to be here."Aren't you excited?""Well, it's not as if I'm getting married, Jamie."Well no because you're not the marrying type, remember. I thought about saying but decided not to. I think it'll cause more harm than good. As far as he's concerned, I don't have a problem with it."I'm excited! Carmen is my best friend and she's getting married tomorrow. If she's happy then so am I."I picked up a bag and hung it from my shoulder.Mason pulled out the last medium-sized suitcase and closed the booth."I'm excited that I get to spend the weekend with you."He closed the distance between us and set his lips on mine."Do you plan
