ANDRE
*Few Months Later*
"You may now kiss the bride," the priest said but I was way ahead of him.
Cleo was already in my arms, our lips fused together as we kissed each other recklessly.
We pulled apart after a while and turned to the cheering crowd all smiles, our hands linked together. Then we slowly made our way down the aisle, stopping to greet family and friends as we did.
The celebration continued in the reception and I never for once let go of my lovely bride. We danced, drank, ate and partied before eventually retiring to our suite for the night.
"I love you," I said as we made our way to the bed.
"I love you too... So damn much!" Cleo breathed out in reply.
I smiled as I laid her on the bed and fused our lips together. I'd just begun to take her clothes off when Cleo broke our kiss and mumbled in a breathless voice, "Andre, I have something to tell you. Something huge."
"Okay, sweetheart, what is it?" I quizzed
ANDRE"Don't you get it Lola? It's over. Read my lips. O-V-E-R." I said with all finality."But...but...but..." She whimpered but I cut her off."Enough with the buts L. That was practically the only thing good about you." I said aloud for all to hear in an attempt to further embarrass her."Look L, I'm sure somewhere out there is the guy for you but it's not me. So start looking for him and pray he'll still want you after this goes viral. Catch ya...never!" I said smirking as I walked away, leaving the crowd that had gathered around us in awe and surprise.I don't blame them. Just a week ago, Lola had been “the girl who lit up my world” and
ANDRE"Are you flirting with me Mr. Simmons?""Do you want me to be flirting with you Miss Reynolds?" I replied smirking.She chuckled again and pushed her chair backward as she rose to her feet and slowly walked towards me.She sat on the table in front of me and observed me with a smile on her face before she began to bring her face towards mine."This was too easy." I thought to myself smiling.Then with our face inches apart, she paused and said "Out of my office Mr. Simmons.""Wait what?!" 
CLEONAOh my gosh! I actually slept with Andre f**king Simmons. What the hell could I have been thinking? I never go to bed with men on the first date.Scrap that!It wasn't a date. I was dead drunk meaning that he more or less raped me. Yeah, that's what happened. He took advantage of my state and took me to bed against my will...Just then, Andre opened his eyes and stared at me with a wide eyed expression when he finally came to."Cleo, why are you in my room?" He asked, stifling a yawn."How would I know that, you creep? You brought me here." 
CLEOI woke up the next morning with a smile on my face, ready to face whatever life threw at me and of course, win the bet. It would be nice to show Andre that not every woman could surrender to his charm.I was still in bed reflecting on the strategies to use in winning the bet when I heard a knock at the door. Curious as to who it could be, I got out of bed and walked towards the door."Good morning Miss. This was delivered for you." The guy at the door (a bellboy) said, handing me a bouquet of red roses."Uh thanks." I said, accepting it."You're welcome Miss." He replied, walking away after I handed him a tip.I closed the door and wal
CLEONA"I think it would be best if we stay at my place to keep up the facade of being engaged... Or what do you think?""I guess so. We can do that. Yeah. It'll give me more time to work on getting that kiss.""Oh you'll be kissed alright but you'll be the one doing the first kissing.""Yeah right." I replied, rolling my eyes."Don't be so confident wifey." He said smirking."Don't call me that!""Why? It's not wrong, is it?""You know what, call me whatever you wanna call me. I don't care." I replied fuming as I crossed my arms.He chuckled and looked out the window. The car remained silent and soon the car was pulling up in the driveway outside a tall mansion.Once the car stopped, I watched as Andre got out and opened the d
ANDREAll of a sudden, I caught myself. What the heck was I possibly thinking? I wasn't about to let Cleo win that easily. In fact, I wasn't about to let her win at all.With that in mind, I drew away and returned my attention back to her ankle."Just keep the ice on it while I go check on the food okay?""Mm-hmm." She replied as I walked out.Time to turn things in my favour. •••• CLEONAI smirked to myself after Andre left. He'd been about to kiss me. I saw it in his eyes... He might have stopped right before he did but I wasn't even bothered. I didn't want it to be that easy anyways. I wanted to make sure he fell in love with me first before getting that kiss.
CLEONAI woke up, feeling well rested and ready to start the day. I tried moving my ankle and surprisingly, it didn't hurt that bad. I smiled and tried moving out of bed when I suddenly realized that I couldn't.My first instinct was to panic and scream as flashes of me being tied up popped in my head but I managed to calm myself as I became more aware of my surroundings.I wasn't tied up. Someone's arms were wrapped around me and of course, that person had to be the one and only Andre Simmons. It took every bit of my resolve not to scream into his ear or do something equally as dastard but I didn't.Instead I managed to get out of his arms, a task which proved to be incredibly hard but surprisingly not impossible
CLEONAI stared at my phone for a while, trying to make sense of the call. Who exactly was the caller and what was their purpose for calling me? Could they also be looking to harm me or was he/she just bluffing?I tried asking myself these questions but no answer I got seemed plausible so I decided to head back to Andre."Hey! There you are... I was thinking you were planning on staying there overnight. Look I'm sorry if my questions upset you. I know this whole engagement thing is fake so if I came off as pushy!""Wait! So you're apologizing despite the fact that you did nothing wrong?" I was surprised."I did do something wrong. I shouldn't have meddled."

I'd just begun to take her clothes off when Cleo broke our kiss and mumbled in a breathless voice, "Andre, I have something to tell you. Something huge.""Okay, sweetheart, what is it?" I quizzed
CLEONA"What are YOU doing here?!" I asked venomously."I came to see you Cleo." He replied, his British accent more pronounced than before."What do you mean by that? How the heck did you find me?""Really? No 'hi Dad'. 'It's been so long Daddy'.""The guts you must have...to come here after 10 years and expect me to jump right into your arms!? You have got to be joking DAD! Now I ask again, what are you doing here and how the heck did you find me!?"He sighed and said "Well a week ago, a man named Andre Simmons called me and told me what'd happened to you so I...""Wait a sec, did you just say Andre Simmons?""Yeah. He said he was your...""Boyfriend. He is so dead!" I muttered angrily. "Now back to you, what are you doing here!?""Well Andre told me what happened to you so I thought I'd come and see how you were doing.""I'm fine. Now can you leave?""Cleo, I'm sorry I stayed away but I'm here now
CLEONA"Sierra! What the hell are you doing here? I never hurt you. Heck I barely even know you." I yelled hysterically."True but you stole Andre from me and I'm going to make you pay!""Damn you Sierra! All this for a guy who doesn't love you!?""He doesn't seem to love you that much either if he kisses your best friend.""How do you know about that!?""Because...dearest Ariadne is on our side.""You're lying!""Oh no! On the contrary Cleo, I'm actually telling you the truth. In fact without her, this plan would have never worked.""Ariadne would never do that. She wouldn't, would she?" I asked, more to myself than anyone else."Well she would and now we can do anything we want to do with you. We're gonna have so much fun." Ian said with a devious smile on his face.Sierra left, leaving only Chad, Raphael and I together."I say we have some fun, don't you think so?""I do." Rap
ANDREI exhaled sharply as I watched Cleo disappear round a corner. I sighed sadly where I stood, the box burning a hole in my pocket. I reached in and grabbed it, opening it to display a large diamond ring set on a silver band.That'd been my surprise. I was about to propose to her. I was going to propose to her. It would happen during her speech and I was sure she would say yes.Now... I wasn't so sure anymore.I wouldn't want to either if I saw her in the arms of another man. In fact, I hadn't even want to speak to her after what happened with that prick, Cameron and now the very same thing had happened to me... Speaking of which...I turned around suddenly as thou
CLEONAIt feels really good to be in love. I'm living proof of that fact. I always thought that love wasn't for me and that love was basically a scam but ever since Andre and I expressed our true feelings to each other, I have never been happier in my whole life.After our session in the bathtub, we had one more round at the sink (don't ask!) before we were finally able to peel our hands off each other and actually get dressed.Even in the car, we couldn't stop giving each other 'googly eyes'.Now I seem to understand Kyla and Scott's relationship because Andre and I are even worse than them. Weird right?Anyways, Andre and I surveyed the site. They were almost
{RATED 18+} CLEONAI woke the next morning feeling sore all over. My lips curved into a smile as I remembered the night Andre and I had. It's a wonder we got any sleep at all.I turned to the side to give Andre a good morning kiss but he wasn't there. Almost immediately, a warning went off in my head but I quickly brushed it aside with a "Andre would never do that to me".Almost immediately as if on cue, Andre made his way inside the room, a breakfast tray in hand."Good morning, babe," he said, walking towards me."Babe?" I said, a smile playing on my lips.
CLEONAThe day went by with Andre trying to act as though everything was normal. Kyla called to check where I was but I explained that I was safe and sound even though I refused to tell her where I was. Then again, I'm sure she knew.I tried calling Ariadne but she still wasn't picking my calls. It hurt but I tried not to think about it, instead focusing all my thoughts on whether or not to answer Andre and what my answer would be to his question.I eventually decided that I would tell him when night fell and then I tried my best to focus on whatever activity we were doing.Night came sooner than expected and I found myself growing anxious and nervous as Andre escorted me to my room.
ANDRE"CLEO!!!" I yelled aghast as I rushed towards her."Cleo, what are you doing?" I asked again, slowly walking towards her."What do you think I'm doing, Andre?""Well whatever it is, please don't it.""Well why shouldn't I? Ariadne hates me, you do too, my life is messed up. I'm broken Andre. I have nothing to live for. If I die, no one would be bothered. What's the use postponing it?""That's not true Cleo. I don't hate you and neither does Ariadne. She's just angry because she doesn't know the truth. I'm sorry for not believing you. Just please don't do this. I'd miss you if you died...so please don'
ANDRE"Oh it was just you." Cleo said as she opened the door. I was about turning it off but I just had to see what exactly happened."Yup. Just me." He said with a snicker."Come on in Cam. Where's Ari by the way?""Oh she's on her way. She should be here any minute with Kyla and Scott.""Okay. That sounds nice."Cleo led him to his seat before going to the kitchen and coming back with several bowls of popcorn. After which she sat down a few metres away from Cameron.I expected them to exchange dirty flirty words or something of the sort but
