Realignment Sparkle THE VISIT
Amy took extra time with her appearance today, she had on a gray cashmere sweater paired with black wide leg pants. Today they were going to pay a visit to Reynolds grandmother who couldn't attend the wedding because of her health. Apparently the proper thing was for the couple to pay her a customary visit together. She chuckled at the word couple, it sounded surreal to her. She looked at her makeup kit, thought for a while and decided to settle with less makeup for today, although heavy under her eyes to hide her freckles.Reynolds had left the house early after his morning jog, he had something urgent to sort out in the office. She had canceled all her appointments for the day and told Jane to take care of any other important thing. Apparently Reynolds thought she needed the whole day to get ready to visit his grandma. Surely she wasn't that bad that she needed to take extra time to ponder on which clothing to wear. She stood in front of her shoe rack and debated on which heels t
Realignment Sparkle ROSE BUSHES
Reynolds parked in the garage, Amy stepped down and took a good look at the house, flowers were everywhere. The house had the look of a 90s Victorian house. "Welcome, welcome" a voice said. Amy turned and saw a woman coming from around the back of the house, wearing rain boots. "Grams," Reynolds said and walked into her outstretched arms. Amy stood there looking at them, She did not expect to see such a vibrant woman. "Wonderful, wonderful girl, come here" Reynolds grandma said and pulled her into a hug."You are so pretty," she whispered into Amy's ear.. She released Amy and spun her 360 to get a good look at her. "You got yourself a good one here" she said and winked at Reynolds. "Let's go in" she said and led them into the house, still clutching onto Amy's hand. They sat in the living room, "We got these for you ma" Amy said and handed the bag of gifts to her. "Just call me grandma" she said and smiled at her. "I hope my grandson has not riled you up, forgive him if he has, it's
Realignment Sparkle THE ACCIDENT
Reynolds led Amy back into the house with his grandma following behind. "Let me get the first aid box" his grandma said and disappeared. Reynolds held Amy's hand, using his finger to apply pressure on the bleeding site. "Your grandma isn't here, you can let go of me now, don't worry about the couples show". Amy said and tried to wrench her hand free from his grasp but he wouldn't budge. "Keep still," Reynolds muttered through his teeth. Amy looked at him and seeing the seriousness in his eyes, she decided to keep still.His grandma hurried back with an old, white first aid box, the red cross already fading off it. She opened it and took out an antiseptic, cleaned the wound with it and covered it with a band aid. "There you go, nice and clean". She said and took the box back. Amy put the finger in front of her face and looked at it like an offending object for a while. "They didn't teach you in school to avoid rose bushes?" Reynolds asked her, staring her squarely in the face. "Or di
Realignment Sparkle AT THE HOSPITAL
Blood drained from Reynolds face as he heard what the other person was saying hurriedly. His wife was involved in a car accident and she had been rushed to the hospital. "What's the name of the hospital?" Reynolds asked still trying to maintain his composure. "Elena Grey's memorial hospital" the caller said. Reynolds hung up the call and rang Luke, "get my car ready now" he barked into the phone and hung up the line before Luke could say anything.He picked some documents and walked out of the office, into his car and barked the name of the hospital at his driver. "Can't you go any faster than this?" He screamed at his driver and the man increased the speed of the car. In no time, they arrived at the hospital and he jumped out of the car before it could even stop and ran into the hospital. "Amy Bennet" he said to the receptionist who was staring at him as if she had seen a ghost. "Are you dumb? I said, "Where is Amy Bennet?" He shouted at her."Sorry...erm... she is in the emergency
Realignment Sparkle HELPLESS?
Amy groaned and her eyes fluttered open, the room was dark, which was good cause her eyes wouldn't take the light. She turned her head towards the window, it was night already, how long had she been out for?. She stopped when she heard someone breathing softly near her, she looked down and saw a head she recognized as Reynolds' sitting beside her bed with his face down on the bed. He must have fallen asleep watching her. Amy felt her heart flutter at that realization. She did not want to disturb him but at the same time she really needed to pee.Her right leg felt really heavy and painful, she stretched her hand to touch it and felt something hard, the doctors had put a cast on her leg, she must have fractured it she figured. She stirred a bit and Reynolds raised his head quickly. "You're awake". "Yeah and I need to pee really bad". Reynolds helped her down from the bed and carried her to the bathroom. "You know I can walk right". Amy protested. "The doctor says you'll need to kee
Realignment Sparkle ALL OVER THE NEWS
Reynolds and Luke drove to the warehouse where Evan was kept hostage. The guards at the door let them in, Evan was tied to a chair, his hands and legs were tied together and his mouth was gagged. Reynolds walked over to him and yanked the mouth gag off, "Hello Evan, I'm very sure you must know who I am and what I do for a living. That should tell you that I'm probably a very busy man, so we can just move this along very quickly so I can get back to work". "I have nothing to say to you". Evan spat out.Reynolds laughed a low rumbling laughter, the laughter that Luke called the laughter of death. He turned around and snapped his fingers at one of the guards, "bring her in". The guard left the room and came back with a woman, her hands tied and her mouth gagged too. Evan's head whipped up and his mouth fell open when he recognized the face as that of his wife. Reynolds pulled out her mouth gag and whispered to her, "talk to your husband"."Evan, honey please tell them whatever they wa
Realignment Sparkle STRAWBERRY FLAVOUR
After getting the information he needed from Evan, Reynolds headed back to the office for an urgent meeting. He sat there watching one of the junior associates of his company give a presentation on how they could merge both his father's company and his company without the merger affecting the staff and finances of both companies. The guy was doing a good job but he hadn't quite explained how the balancing was going to work on both sectors, a merger like this could cost both companies millions of dollars. Reynolds was about to interrupt and ask a question when his phone vibrated in his pocket.He did not usually pick calls or answer messages during crucial meetings, focus was one of the things his father had driven into him but needed an update from Luke and so he pulled out his phone and took a long look at it. His face unconsciously broadened into a smile as he read the message to himself. It was from an unknown number but he was pretty sure it was Amy, apart from the fact that it
Realignment Sparkle ON THE HOSPITAL BED
The room went quiet when Reynolds walked into it. His eyes still on the last person he wanted to see, he closed the door behind him and walked closer to Amy and stretched out the bags to her. He looked at the supposed best friend to Amy and his jaw tightened, he was sitting on the edge of her bed, holding her hand and making her smile. Amy saw the change on his face and decided to lighten up the room, "darling you're back, you recognize my friend David right?". "Unfortunately I do". Reynolds replied, still standing at the edge of the room.David cleared his throat, obviously uncomfortable about the outright stare Reynolds was giving him. "Mr Bennet, thank you for finally letting me see her". "Direct that appreciation to Amy, I don't deserve it". Amy looked from one man to the other, noticing the tension sparking between them she decided to change the topic. "Oh how wonderful, you got me strawberry flavored ice cream, thank you so much darling". Reynolds looked at her in confusion,
