View More8 PM....Rachel is having a glass of orange juice while carrying Elise, while Jack is talking with Liam and Nate. She's been trying to make Elise to calm down, since she's been moving a lot. Just then, she sees Alex walking over to her, a smile slowly forming on his face. "Hey, how are you?" Alex ask as he stares at the girl carrying her child."I'm good, Alex. And you?" Rachel ask with a smile."I'm fine," says Alex. He starts to stare at Elise who had been moving around her mother's arms. "Ah, Elise, calm down," says Rachel as she puts the glass of orange juice on the table beside her and tries to calm the feisty toddler in her arms.Alex chuckles at the sigh of the child being a little too feisty in her mother's arms. He thought it is really cute. "She's beautiful.""And feisty at times," Rachel says as she sees that Elise is about to cry. "Just like you," says Alex with a bit of a flirty tone. He eventually realize that he probably just flirted her. Rachel's face starts to tur
3 years later...Los Angeles, USA...3:15 PM...Rachel's POV....After 3 years of living in LA and learning a lot of new things, I'm happy to say that I am officially a part of the gang. Despite the struggles, after a year and six months of training, they finally put me in the position of hacker, which I found to be quite comfortable since it makes it easier for me to also look out for my daughter, Elise. Being a mother now, I've come to learn a new perspective in life. Sometimes even the most bitter past can bring a sweet memory to cherish, or even a reason for a new hope. When I discovered that I was pregnant after arriving in LA, I was so desperate. I didn't know what to do. I wasn't ready to be a mother at the time, but I knew I didn't want to give up the baby. Jack was the first person to know about my pregnancy after he took me to the doctor. I came to a conclusion that it was impossible to tell the biologial father of my child, knowing that he's engaged and will get married af
8:55 PM....Rachel's POV..."Hey! I was wondering if we could talk for a moment?" Alex ask. His soft voice tinkles through my ears."Ok," I answer casually. "Where?""The garden." Alex leads me to the garden to have a private talk, away from the boys.We enter the garden and close the door of the house. The two of us standing as we look at each other face to face. It's been a while since we last have some alone time together."So, what is it?" I ask him.Alex looks down on the ground with a guilty look. His face looks like he's trying to put together the right words to explain. "I just want to apologize to you. I should have told you about what I'm going through in the first place," Alex says. "I shouldn't have lied to you about it."I let out a sigh as I stare at Alex with disappointment and shock. I didn't expect him to apologize to me this way, and that it was done unexpectedly. Honestly, I'm still disappointed by him, but looking at him tonight face to face reminds me on how much
Rachel's POV...I froze as I see a woman and four men wearing all black standing in front of Sebastian and I. The woman had been throwing evil glances at me, which creeped me out. "Mom, what are you doing here?" Sebastian ask the woman. No way, this creepy woman is his mom? I wasn't ready to hear that."What did you think made me come all the way here in the middle of the night?" the woman stares at Sebastian with a sharp look. "You have to stop acting so innocent, son. It's discgusting!" "Mom...let's talk...""There's nothing to talk about! You got the girl and the time is up!" the woman, slightly screams at the last part of the sentence. "Get her to the car, boys!""Mom, don't do this!" Sebastian says as he tries to cover me from the four men who are approaching us. The four men quickly pushes Sebastian to the side and drags me off the bed. I tried to escape their grip but for a girl to fight over the power of four men was too hard. Suddenly I felt a sharp sting on my arm, realiz
Jack's POV...I stopped running when I realize that I had lost Rachel in the crowd. Damn, this is dangerous! That girl is being after by a mysterious criminal, and she just ran away due to a heart break. This is a disaster.I quickly grab my phone from my pocket. I tried to call her a few times but she didn't pick up. I sigh as she didn't answer my 5th call. Realizing that she's not gonna pick up my calls anytime sooner, I decided to call the guys. I put my phone back in my pocket. I was about to walk through the large crowd, when I almost bump into a couple who are holding their ice creams. It's Alex, and his girlfriend, obviously."Jack!" Alex looks at me with a surprised look. He looks like he is frozen to death as his eyes widens at the sight of me. I guess he didn't want me to caught him like this? Whatever."I'm surprised to see you here," I stare at him with a sharp look, and feeling way too irritated. I would have smack him right now for making Rachel ran away, but I had to l
At Weston University....Rachel and Sebastian are sitting in class listening to the lecture, when they hear the sound of the door opening, leading the whole room to have their attention to the person who enters. It's Alex.Alex walks over and sits next to Rachel. "Hey, sorry I'm late," Alex says with a bit of a worried tone."No worries," Rachel says with a smile, finally feeling better that she is able to see her boyfriend sitting next to her.Sebastian starts glancing at the couple who is now smiling at each other. He felt a weird feeling in his chest running around and making his heart feel hurt. To him, it's funny how he was disappointed too much that Alex arrived to college today when he was getting some time with Rachel. Somehow it makes him feel....jealous.A few hours later...At the cafeteria..."So how's your training?" Alex ask."Good. My shooting is getting way better, as well as my fighting skills," Rachel says with a confident tone."Well, you have to thank the boys for
Rachel's POV....I stood in silence as I find myself surprised to what I just heard."Alex..." "I know it sounds surprising, to ask you to join a gang. I promise I won't let anyone lay a finger on you. I'll teach how to fight and even shoot. I just don't want you to get into danger out there," Alex says as he stares deeply into my eyes."Alex...it's all so sudden. The guys, will they be ok with that?" I ask."They are all welcomed to have you! We even asked our leader, Chad, and he was happy with the idea," Alex says. "He's been wanting to find female members for the squad." I stood in silence as I stare into Alex's eyes with mixed feelings. Though I would still be surprise if I ever find myself becoming a part of a gang, yet a part of me really wanted to join. Why? Not only because I want to spend every time with Alex (yeah, I do). But other than that, I also want to learn how to protect myself. I want to fight for myself, and I want to know who were the people that took away my ha
Rachel's POV...Alex and I are now in class as all the students are listening to the lecture. After what happened between me and Sebastian earlier, I couldn't consenstrate at all. My mind is lost. Alex notice how I had been spacing out during class."Rachel, are you ok?" Alex ask with his signature soft voice."Yeah, just spaced out," I say casually.Alex gives me a concern look before holding my hand, making my heart skip a beat. Even the slightest touch from him always makes me feel better. When I'm around him, I always feel safe and comfortable. "Don't stress too much," Alex says as he holds my hand firmly. "You're safe with me." I smile as I turn my head to his direction. "You always know how to make me feel better," I say."Well, you're my favorite thing to learn about," says Alex as he forms a flirty smile at me."A thing?" I ask with a playful tone."And person. You are my favorite person to learn about." Alex starts carressing my hand softly, making me form a shy smile.A fe
Alex's POV....My eyes slowly flutters open as I hear the sound of crying from a familiar voice. I see Rachel crying on my right side while kneeling down beside the bed. She has her face covered with her arms placed on his bed as she cries."Rachel?" I say as I stare at her who is crying beside me.Rachel turns her head and is surprised to see that I am awake. She wipes her tears with her thumb as she stares at with a shocked look."You're...you're ok?" Rachel ask with a surprised look. I knew she had been crying for a while since her hazel eyes looks really puffy. The thought of her crying for me actually made my heart broken. I never wanted to see Rachel crying, especially because of me. "I'm ok," I say as I stare into her beautiful eyes that are filled with tears. The sight of it already kills me slowly. "Don't cry. I'm alright.""You are hurt! Just look at you," Rachel says. She starts to study the bruises on my arm like the typical over-protective mother."These bruises just nee
