"So how was it?" I inquire Lucy as we stride down across the corridor of the school with a huge smile on my face. Lucy doesn't seem as delighted as I thought she was going to be after spending last night with Darren, and the curiosity is killing me.
"Nothing like what you visualized. " She murmurs as she stops at her locker, punching the code, and pulling it open.
I frown, and cross my hands against my chest, before saying, "Why? Did something happen? Did he try to do something stupid? Did you get caught up? Or he bailed on you?" The words slip through my lips, and Lucy responds with a chuckle, shaking her head as she rummages through her locker.
"I would have been happy if any of that stuff happened. At least I wouldn't have to go through what I went through yesterday. " What the hell did that guy do? I swear to God I'm going to... Let's not jump to conclusion

ASHLEY. "Are you still thinking about it?" I question Lucy who turns to me with a smile on her face, and she shakes her head as she pulls on the straps of her bag, saying, "No, he came up to me, and apologized when you took off to the restroom. He said something was going on, and he was distracted. " "Finally. Now, you'll stop being such a brooding bitch. " I tease, and she rolls her eyes at me with a laugh. "What's the deal with you, and Quinn though? She's been staring at you since forever. " She jerks her head towards a direction, and I turn in my stand to come into view with a glaring Quinn. She's leaning against the locker next to Dave's, and I smirk at her, raising my middle finger. She literally fumes where she stands, and a laugh slips through my lips as I turn back to Lucy, saying, "She confronted me at the restroom, and I fix her in her place."

ASHLEY. An alarming thought flashes through my mind— Sinclair is standing by my door. Then the second one; Sinclair is standing by my door, staring at the position I'm in with my ex-boyfriend. One he knows. And one I told him not to hurt. I push at Dave, not caring if I hurt him as I move to my stand, with a smile directed at Sinclair. "Um, hi, " I mutter awkwardly, but he isn't staring at me. His eyes are fixed on a boy behind me, who's now struggling to get up. Dave moves to stand beside me, and his eyes find Sinclair, who doesn't look so happy with the boy. With one last glance at Dave, Sinclair walks out of my room, and the first thought in my head is to go after him. But I don't do that. Instead, I turn to Dave with a scowl on my face as I say, "What the hell was that?" He shakes his

ASHLEY. "I'm heading to school. " I say to a smiling Vincent who's leaning against the counter, and he raises his attention from his phone to meet my gaze. "Hey, little nerd, " he teases, stalking towards me, and I roll my eyes before grabbing an apple from the refrigerator. "I don't have time for your jokes, Vincent. " "You know, I've been thinking you barely eat anything good. You're always munching on that Apple, and ice cream all day long. " I didn't know you observed that, asshole. "Well, with mom being busy with work, " my stomach drops as the name slips through my parted lips, with the apple hanging in the air. I hate it. I hate the fact that she's always working herself so much. She barely has time to take care of herself, not to talk of her children. "Don't you think we should try to persuade mom to stop?" I turn to Vincent with furrowed brows

ASHLEY. The wetness between my thighs only seem to worsen at Sinclair's words, and I wrap my arms tightly around his waist, laying my head against his back, and not caring about the fact that I'm missing a couple of periods for a time with this man. The ride comes to an abrupt end, and I lift my head at the noise that surrounds me. Gazing around my surroundings; we are literally at another part of the town I never knew of. This place seems far from home, and I furrow my brows as Sinclair jerks his head towards me. Landing safely on my feet; I remove the helmet, fix my hair, and meet Sinclair's gaze with lifted brows. "Um... What are we doing here?" I question as I give him the helmet, and he chuckles, fixing it into place before getting off 6je bike to lean against it instead; his arms crossed against his chest as he says, "I told you alrea

ASHLEY. "You sure you want me to stop here?" Sinclair questions as I give him the helmet, and I nod with a small smile; smoothing my hands down my hair. "Yes, I'm sure. Thanks for the ride. " He hums, and I take that as my cue to leave. Pulling on the straps of my bag, I turn in the opposite direction, and stride towards my school. Hearing the engine revving behind me; my stomach drops in disappointment as I turn around to be met with Sinclair pulling out of the building. What else were you expecting, Ashley? He's done with you. With a shake of my head, I run towards the building, and across the field; stopping before the closed doors at the sound of my name being yelled from behind. I turn around on my stand with a scowl on my face at the figure of a smiling Dave.

ASHLEY. I gape at Darren with a dazed expression; wondering why he's standing outside the girl's restroom. "Oh, hi Ashley. I didn't know you were in there. " He says with a chuckle, rubbing the back of his head as his gaze moves from me to the space, and I tilt my head, crossing my arms against my chest. "Did you really?" I question, and his head snaps to me; meeting my eyes with lifted brows. "What are you talking about?" "Did you not know I was in there, or did you come here knowing I was? I want the truth, Darren. Why were you waiting here? Were you taking a peek, or something?" I take a step forward, and his gaze moves down to the motion, before lifting to meet my eyes. "I don't understand what you're trying to say, Ashley. Why will I do something like that?" Because you're a fucking creep!

ASHLEY. "I have to get home!" I inform Lucy, and she furrows her brows, staring at me with a confused expression. "What are you talking about? You just got here. Is there something going on, Ashley?" She asks me with concern smearing her features, and I nod, holding up my phone. "Something came up at home, and I have to head back. " "Do you want me to come with you?" She asks, swinging away from her locker, and I shake my head with a small smile. "No, you don't have to worry about that. I'll be fine. Just try to take discernible notes for me. " I joke, and she rolls her eyes with a smile. "Fill me on the details later, yeah?" She says with raised brows, and I nod with a hum, turning on my stand, only to crash into a figure standing before me. I lift my eyes to meet his gaze, and Darren sta

ASHLEY.I stand before Sinclair's door, and start to rethink my decision of coming here.There's no going back now. I'm already here.I raise my hand, and make soft contact with my knuckles against the wooden door; swaying on my feet as I wait patiently for a response.The lights are on, so he's undoubtedly home.Receiving no response, I raise my hand again; only for the door to be opened, revealing a shirtless Sinclair.He stares down at me with surprise in his eyes, and I smile as my eyes move over his figure; he's dressed in nothing but grey sweatpants that are hanging low on his hips, and his hair is tousled on his head like someone's been messing with me.The mere presence of the man makes my heart leap as a smile slowly creeps up to my face, while I try to resist the urge to jump into his ar

RALPH. "You're here. " I smile, moving from my seat to give Ashley a hug before she slides into the seat across from me, while I settle back on mine. "Hey, Ralph. How are you?" She smiles, removing her glasses and leaning forward. "I haven't heard from you in a while. A surprise you called. " "Yeah. We've all been busy, haven't we?" I say and she nods, keeping that gentle smile on her face. "Do you want to order anything before—" I start and she shakes her head. "No. I'm good. Are you?" "Sure, I am. " I respond and she hums, narrowing her eyes at me when I say no other word. "You wanted to meet?" "Yes. " I nod, linking my fingers and dropping them in front of me. "I want to talk to you about something important, and I don't know if you've heard it from Lucy or—" "What's it?" She asks and I take a breath before I continue, "You know she's pregnant, don't you?" Her eyes widen. "She is?" I push my head back. "You don't? I thought she'd tell you about that. " "No, she didn't.

SIN Bonus Chapter– Dave + Quinn
DAVE. ✓THREE MONTHS AGO. ASHLEY'S WEDDING. ~ "Hey, I thought Ashley said you weren't in town. " I turn to see Lucy approaching me and I smile at her as she stands in front of me. "I wasn't, but I am now. " "Just for the wedding?" She teases and I laugh, "I couldn't afford to miss it now, could I?" "Definitely not. " She agrees and we both laugh before I open my arms and she gives me a tight hug before she pulls away. "It's nice to see you again, Dave. " "You too, Lucinda. You have..." I trail off, my eyes moving down her body before I meet her gaze again. "You're looking more beautiful. " "When have I ever not?" She replies cockily and I shake my head before I turn my head from her, taking a sip of the drink. "I'll talk to you later, yeah? I need to be on my way. " "See you later. " I say with a raise of the glass and she smiles before she starts to walk away. A sigh leaves my lips as I look around the room filled with people who are here to celebrate the big day of Sincl
SIN Bonus Chapter– Vincent + Heather
VINCENT. My chest falls as I stride inside the house, and shut the door behind me. "And why do you have a frown on your face?" I flinch a bit at the sudden sound and relax when I look to my side to see Heather leaning against the wall with her hands crossed to her chest and a tiny smile on her face. Her blonde hair is pulled in a messy bun, and she's in one of those transparent lace with her bra and her lace panties peeking out from beneath. "Hey, angel. " I smile at her, and she strolls to my front, locking her hands around my neck while I use my free hand around her waist. She kisses the side of my face before she pulls back and whispers, "Hey. ""How long have you been waiting there?" I ask her, referring to her little hide and seek, and she says, "Since I heard the sound of your car. What's wrong? Why did you have a frown on?""Just a stressful day at work. Things didn't exactly go as we thought they would. " I tell her and she looks down at her other hand. She grabs my suitcas

ASHLEY. "Are you nervous?" Heather chuckles as she places a hand on my shoulder and I shake my head despite my trembling hands fisted in my gown. "You do look nervous, " she says playfully. "More happy than nervous?"Lillian turns to me this time with her six-year-old daughter placed on her hip. She's dressed in a simple gown that stays fitted to her body and brings out her perfect features. The woman is still looking as beautiful as ever. "I can remember your words from years ago, Ashley. You promised you'll be more happy than nervous when your big day comes. " I did say that. I said that because I wasn't the one dressed in a heavy gown with a groom waiting to finally lay the final claim on his bride. But now that I am, it'll be a lie to say I'm not nervous. I'm fucking nervous, but that also equals happiness. This is really happening: I'm getting married to that man.

SIX YEARS AND A FEW MONTHS LATER. √WASHINGTON. DC. ASHLEY. "So you're back and the first person you thought to meet is your man?" Lucy's loud whining voice echoes through my ears, and a chuckle leaves my mouth as I move the phone away a bit before glueing it back to my ear. "I remember you doing the same thing months ago, backstabber. " I remind her of her playful betrayal as I walk inside the company. A company that's managed by Vincent, Sinclair along with one other friend of theirs. It's been three years since they graduated college, and decided to pursue the world of business and exchange side by side, and I'm so fucking proud of how far those men have come, and how fast they continue to grow. When Sinclair first told me about the idea, I was shocked because I wasn't expecting him to go along that line. I would have never imagined Sinclair to go with business despi

SINCLAIR. "What are you getting her?" I ask Vincent as he looks through the set of chocolates on the top rows. He looks back at me and furrows his brows, "Isn't that obvious?" "Just chocolates?" I raise my brows and he sighs, dropping the chocolate box with other things he bought before turning back to me. "Okay, what's it? Don't fucking tell me it's nothing because I know it's fucking something. You've been acting this way since we came in. " "I don't know, man, " I tell him and sigh when he narrows his eyes at me. "I just don't know what to get Little Greene. " "I told you not to call her that name around me. " He frowns and I chuckle. "You should have gotten used to it by now. She's the little one, isn't she?" He rolls his eyes and moves to the other end, and I follow behind him closely, my eyes moving across the set of gifts on the rows but nothing comes close

ASHLEY. A smile remains on my face as I stare at mine and Sinclair's last message. ME: I'm not sure I'll be able to make it. Lectures are hard on me these days. I'm so sorry, babe, you know how much I wish I could be there truly. SINCLAIR: I understand, Little Greene. My first wish was from you so that's alright. At the end of his message is a smiley face. Though I know he can put up with me not showing up on his day because of school, I also know he isn't okay like he claims to be. It's been two months since we last saw each other. Two months since we left Washington. Two months since that heartening night in the snow that's come to become one of my favourite moments with the man I love. Two months since I got an advance proposal from Sinclair Leovough, as weird as that sounds. "You honestly are a tease, " Lucy
