I love Dylan and the rest of the guys, but if they think they are being sneaky they are sorely mistaken. They might as well rent a fucking bill board and advertise that they are planning to try and catch Mateo and his group of dipshits. They have been covertly, well they think they are being covert, around trying to come up with a plan to catch Mateo in the act. We are over at Lina’s house. Emery’s fingers are flying across her keyboard as she checks on what those assholes are up to. “Do Gareth and Elias have any idea that you know they are involved in all of this?” Emmy asks.“No, I haven’t let on that I know they are the ones that were spying on me and that I know they are the ones that were helping to try and break me and Dylan apart.” I replied.I wasn’t initially suspicious of them when we first met in class, but both of them gave me a weird vibe. Elias more so than Gareth, but when we returned to class after our holiday break they were acting even stranger than before.
These last two weeks have been interesting. We told Carmine, Anthony, and Dad about Aria and who she said she and her father are. They confirmed what she told us was true and that her father was a close friend and ally of theirs. We even brought Aria to meet with them and Aria even called her father during the meeting. Emery was able to do something with her computer and we all saw him on the tv in Dad’s conference room. After that we let her in on our plan. I don’t think the guys fully trust her, but they are coming around. “I still can’t believe that Janessya’s parents cut her off like that.” I sneer. “I know, but they were against her being with Riley in the first place, why I don’t know. Don’t worry, Riley will make sure she and their child are taken care of and I know your grandparents have offered to pay for her school.” Dylan replies. Janessya and Riley had invited everyone to dinner a week ago and announced that they were not only expecting their first child but t
We knew the girls were up to something, but never in my wildest thoughts did I think they would plan something like this. Sal had come to us and told us that they were planning something, but he had no idea what they had planned. Keegan told us that he had seen all of them over at Ace’s house along with another guy that none of us knew. No granted we don’t know every friend that they have so it could be someone from one of their classes that they had. I opened my phone and the app that I have to track my precious jewel. I gave her a necklace and pendant. The pendant has a tracker in it. I am pretty sure she knows it is there, but she hasn’t said anything to me. I don’t care either way. Knowing I can find her if shit goes down keeps my stress level normal.“I don’t like this. We know Mateo arrived in town late last night, but we haven’t been able to get eyes on him, Gareth, and Elias. I would add Karleena into that list but we haven’t been able to get a visual on her for clo
Dylan-6 Months Later-“For fuck sake she is a moody sheila.” Luke says.“I will tell Sapphire you said that and we shall see how she responds.” Riley comments.Luke shoots him a glare. I shake my head at the two of them. We are having a dual baby shower/gender reveal. Riley and Janessya are the other half of this baby shower/gender reveal. They already know they are having a boy and Janessya is due any day now. My precious jewel is six months along and looks stunning with her bump. She woke up two hours later after arriving at the hospital all those months ago. I let her rest overnight before telling her that she was pregnant. To say she was shocked would be an understatement. She shut down and refused to speak for hours. I was getting worried when Jack walked in and asked what was wrong. She burst into tears and told him that she was pregnant. She was pissed that we knew the night before, but didn’t tell her. Thankfully she calmed down after talking about it. I know
Riley -One Year Later- I stand here in our backyard watching the chaos unfold. We are celebrating my son, Niko’s birthday. He turns one today. I look over as I hear the door to the house open to see Sapphire and Dylan walking out. Sapphire has their eight month old son, Jayson, in her arms. He is the perfect mix of the two of them. He has blond hair, the perfect mix of Sapphire’s white blond hair and Dylan’s dark blonde hair. Jayson has his mother’s sapphire blue eyes, but you can see flakes of steel-gray in them. He is going to be a ladies man when he grows up. He flirts with all the ladies and all the ladies love him. Sapphire sets him down besides Yasmin and Jack’s twins and Niko. Niko and Jayson are only three months apart which I like. The twins and little Alaynia just turned two years a couple months ago. There are way more people here than I thought there would be, but I guess since Niko and I share a birthday it is to be expected. I walk over to where my beauti
I knew it would be hot, but I was not expecting heat like this. The humidity is killer, and I suddenly need to shower. I am just glad to be off that fucking plane. I knew the flight would be long, but I was not prepared for being on the plane for a whole fucking 22 hours. I follow the signs to where the baggage pick-up is. The only things I brought were my clothes and a few essential items I would need for school. The rest of my stuff is in the room at my grandparent's house. I have been living with them for the last two years. Dad more or less kicked me out when I turned 16. I need to stop referring to him as Dad, but he is the only father I know. He is not my biological father. He and my mother had been college sweethearts. I don't know what happened, but they split up a few months after graduation. Two years later, they ran into each other and rekindled their romance. They were both still in love with each other. Gary had a son, Riley, while he and my mother were apar
I wipe the steam from the mirror. It is the last weekend before classes start back up. I grab a towel wrapping it around my waist. I have no idea how long I stand there before someone starts pounding on the door. I shake my head as I open the door. Arlo is standing there with a disgruntled look on his face. I slide past him, heading for my room. I heard him grumble, but I was unsure what he said. I close the door to my room, but that doesn’t stop the loud bass from thumping from the floor below me. I slip on a pair of boxer briefs and then a pair of cargo shorts. I pull a dark green t-shirt over my head before slipping my feet into my trainers. We are meeting Riley and his sister at the pub. Luke and Arlo are the only two that have met her, and from what they have told us, she seems like a good person. Everyone is ready to head out as I walk into the main room. There are ten of us that live in this house. Luke, Arlo, and I decided a month or so ago that we needed to find
Well, my first week here is over. What I was expecting was far from what I was expecting. I am excited since most of my classes will challenge me in a good way. So far, I am enjoying the classes, but that will change as the semester progresses. I was anxious when Riley told me that we were going to some local pub and I would meet most, if not all, of the hockey team. I am not antisocial, but I don’t like big crowds. I was thrilled when I saw Lina snaking her way through the crowd. All the guys seemed nice. I thought my heart would punch through my chest when I saw Dylan. My brain shut down when his steel-grey eyes locked with mine. He is hands down the sexiest guy I have ever seen. He has to be about a foot taller than my 5’4” frame. His steel-grey eyes pop against his naturally lightened dark blonde hair, which is longer on the top and shaved up the sides. I felt like an idiot when I ran into him coming out of the bathroom. I thought I broke my nose on his chest, which b

I can help but stand here and stare at my precious jewel. She is asleep on our bed in our house. We finally finished putting everything where we wanted it. I won’t lie, I was a little worried when I, more or less, gave her full permission to do with the house what she wanted. The only rooms I made sure were ready for her were our bedroom and the room I had turned into an art studio for her. I smile when she turns over and starts trying to find me. I climb back into the bed and pull her against me. She lets out a sigh and melts into me. Things have been quiet, and while I am glad for that it also bothers me. I hate this waiting around shit. I shift to lay on my back and Sapphire follows me laying her head on my chest. “No, it’s too early.” Sapphire whines. “My precious jewel is almost ten.” I snicker.“SHIT!” She states.I laugh when she jumps out of bed running into the closet to grab some clothes and then into the bathroom. I shake my head as I fling my legs over the
I have been here for two weeks and I know that I am going to have to go back to the States soon. My father has been hounding me trying to find out where I am. I am sure he is looking for me, but since I told him I was going to travel around Europe to clear my head he has been trying to find me. I knew he wouldn’t, but he doesn’t know that. I also had work I needed to get back to. I want to bring Karleena with me, but I know if I did that Dad would know that I was here if I were to bring her home with me. “Hey, I am not angry. I know I can’t go back with you, no matter how badly I want to. We have to play this right if our plan is going to work.” Karleena says.The two of us are lying in her bed. We had woken up to her phone going off. She is cuddled into my side with her head on my shoulder as her fingers trace the lines of my muscles. We are both naked after several rounds of sex last night. Gareth had called her letting her know that they needed to talk, but she told hi
I didn’t think this idea through. It sounded great when I said something to Dylan about it, but I didn’t realize how much work this was going to be. I watch as the delivery guys place the last piece of furniture in the house before they leave. Dylan and I have been furniture shopping since our date three nights ago. We talked to Dad and Richard, they agreed that it would make them think that we are not worried about them. They weren’t thrilled with the idea, but they also didn’t tell us not to move into the house. Dad, Carmine, and Anthony left this morning for something in Greece or Italy. I am not sure which country they had to travel to. I let out a sigh as I looked at everything. Most of the furniture had already been delivered, but these few pieces had been out of stock when we ordered them, and they just came back in stock yesterday. I wasn’t expecting to have them arrive this soon. “Don’t worry my precious jewel, the guys are going to come over later and help us arra
I shivered as his breath floated across my ear. Dinner had been amazing, and I was amazed that Dylan was able to reserve a table at that restaurant. I know for a fact that there is at least a three or four month waiting list to get a table there. The food was delicious, making me want to come back as soon as we could. I couldn’t stop staring at my ring. I had a feeling that he was up to something, but I was not expecting this. The ring is gorgeous. The center stone is a large four carat tear drop shaped sapphire with diamonds that decrease in size as they circle the band. The band is rose gold and fits my finger perfectly. I was jolted from staring at the ring when the car stopped. I knew the house, but I wasn’t sure why we were stopping here. I did notice a few new pieces of furniture as we entered. “Why are we stopping at your house?” I asked.“The last part of your surprise is in there. Come on precious jewel, our night is just getting started.” He whispered in my ea
