“ No! Get out, Kaia!” Hayes pointed at the door. She had come to his house claiming she had missed her daughter and wanted to see her. There was no way he was allowing that. He wasn't selfish but Kaia in question made it crystal clear that she didn't want anything to do with Maryse. Why now?“ She's my daughter too Hayes, remember that,” she tried to guilt trip.“ No, she's not, you gave birth to her and swore never to have anything to do with her again, remember? Gia’s my witness to this,” he challenged.“ And you think my stupid sister would agree to support this if it goes to court? You must be silly, very silly.” “ Remember Gia has a conscience and she's not my only witness,” Hayes argued as Mila walked in on them.“ So babe, I would call you later,” she trailed her finger down his chest as Mila burst out laughing.“ What's funny bitch?!”“ You Kaia, you. You're just being a pathetic hoe. I slept over bitch! So this singular act of yours is just pathetic,” she laughed harder maki
“ No, we aren’t,” Mila answered Willow’s question.“ Wait, what do you mean no? You spent the night at his house, so why no?” Phebe asked earning a glare from Mila. Raine and Willow didn’t know she had spent her night at Hayes house and Phebe just blurted it out.Way to go Phebs.“ Wait you what? When were we going to know about this new development?” Raine asked.“ Probably, when I come down to Cali.” she replied.“ You’re coming home?” Raine asked again.“ Yeah, it was supposed to be a surprise but Phebe decided to ruin it. I'm coming down for Maryse's first birthday party and to see you girls. I missed you and it's been a while since I last heard from Khalil and Jax,” she said.“ Oh Jax and Khalil aren't in town, they've been sent on an exchange program to France,” Willow explained.“ That's fine. See you both tomorrow,” she bid before ending the call.“So… what’s up with both of you? Are you sure you both aren’t a couple?” Phebs asked raising her eyebrows.“ No, it was a spark of
Mila stood back with her friends watching Kaia trying to find with her daughter but, Maryse wasn't having it. She kept running to her dad and grandma.Eventually, she stopped trying. She had gotten a couple of pictures of both of them and she was satisfied with that. That was the main reason she decided to come home.“ Isn't she ashamed of herself?” Raine asked out of the blue.“ Nope, the Kaia I know is not ashamed of anything. She knows what she wants and goes after it without hesitation.” Mila explained as Kaia walked happily out of the party. She was not planning on staying for long. She had more important things to take care of than wasting it on a stupid birthday party.“ Enough about Kaia, what's new with you and Hayes? Is the Mayes ship sailing or sinking?” Willow asked. It was two more weeks before her wedding and she couldn't be any more excited than she already was.If someone had told her she would be getting married at 23, she wouldn't have believed but here she was to be
Hayes kissed Mila against the wall, his groin against her. Mila let out pleasurable moans, clearly enjoying his actions, as he abruptly stopped and walked out of the room.She stood at the same spot wondering why he had walked off leaving her standing by herself.Hayes heard the door to the bathroom slam shut as he let out a sigh of relieve. He wanted her so bad but couldn’t take advantage of her during the spur of the moment. The reality wasn’t that he couldn’t but he didn’t want to, he didn’t want to have just casual sex with her but wanted something real. Hayes and Mila got back from Cali a couple of hours ago. She didn’t want to go to her apartment but wanted to sleepover at Hayes’ apartment and then left the next day. If she went straight to her apartment, she knew she would have to unpack and she was feeling lazy doing that. After a couple of minutes, she came out of Hayes room fully dressed and walked past him without a word.“ Mila, I’m sorry I ———“ It’s fine, I understan
Christian had grown accustomed to his new home and liked it better than the first. He loved his brother no doubt but he hardly spent more time with him. They went out often but not as often as how he wanted it to be.Staying with Neo and Tara was great. He loved the way they both loved him to bits and how they treated him.“ Hey C,” Tara pecked him on his cheeks.“ Morning Tara,” he smiled happily munching on some pancakes Neo had made him before heading off to work.“ As much as you’re enjoying these pancakes, you need to hurry up so we don’t get late for school,” she ruffled his hair.“ Done!” he said getting off his chair and dusting off invincible crumbs of his shirt. Tara carried both her lunch bag and his as they hurried to the car where their driver was waiting for them.“Babe , I’m sorry! Aaliyah please” Corey begged as she walked away. She wasn’t in the mood to speak to him after all he said to her when she just wanted to know what was going on with him.Was that too much of
Mila smiled at her brother and her best friend while they did the couple's dance. School had gone on a summer break so she had come down to attend her brother's and best friend's wedding. Her parents didn't show up as usual with the excuse that they had been caught up with business but sent a gift for the couple. Surprisingly, Willow’s mom showed up for the wedding as a way to make it up to her kids for all she did.“ Are you okay?” Raine asked her friend taking a seat next to her.“ I'm fine. I'm happy for Willow. She deserves all that she's getting right now,” Mila smiled.“ She’s been through shit hasn't she?” “ A whole lot,” Mila replied as Raine walked off towards her boyfriend who was seeking her attention.“ And there was one,” she said audibly.“ Tell me about it,” Aaliyah replied sitting close to her.“ Hey kiddo, what's up? Where's Corey?” she asked her. She hadn't had time to work things out with her boyfriend. Things were a little awkward and shaky between them.“ Honest
“ Just listen to what he has to say Phebs,” Mila said to her friend. Phebe had attended the wedding and was spending the holidays with Mila.“ Why should I?” she asked frustrated pacing up and down the hotel room.“ Because he’s bugging me and most importantly, because you like him. No matter how you deny the fact, you do like him and I think he likes you too,”“ Why doesn’t he say it? He seems uncertain on what he wants Mila,” she tried convincing her.“ Honestly, I don’t know. I can’t tell, perhaps you can talk to him for answers,” Mila suggested. “ I will...eventually,” she murmured walking into the bathroom.Willow stood by the window staring at the gorgeous view in front of her. She never imagined herself being where she was today. “ A penny for your thoughts Mrs. Bennett?” her husband asked standing right behind her. Mrs. Bennett, she liked how the name sounded in her ears. “ I’m just counting how blessed I am,” she answered facing her husband, holding his waist in the proce
“ Babe...Mila, I am tired of the back and forth between both of us. It's clear we both like each other but are too hotheaded to confess how we feel to each other. But, I am going to have to risk it. I've loved you from the latter part of our senior year till now and the love I have for you keeps growing each time I meet you. We've been on dates, been there for each other and all. All I want to ask is would you do me the honors of being my girlfriend?” Hayes asked her.“ You know you can do it in person instead of talking to a mirror and you know she will say yes right?” Mila said behind him smiling. He was too shocked to say anything because he wasn’t expecting her to be in the door way. She just walked majestically towards him and kissed him square on the lips before saying “ Hayes Miller, I would love to be your girlfriend,”“ It’s about damn time,” he replied making her chuckle.“ But I have a question,” she smiled mischievously.“ Please don’t ask why I was speaking to a mirror,”
EpilogueOne year along the line… Hayes stood by the door of Maryse 'room admiring how she had curled up beside his girlfriend in a peaceful sleep. They were currently in their final year of university. Remy and Raine were engaged to be married in a couple of weeks. Willow and Neo had welcomed their quadruplets , three girls and a boy. After Kaia's disappearance, he had not heard anything about her. She had not reached out to him about Maryse. Though he did not want her to, she should have made an effort just to prove that she cared. "How long have you been standing there?" Mila asked. He hadn't noticed she was awake and watching him. " Um, for a couple of minutes," his ears turned pink. Mila chuckled at him carefully getting out of bed in order not to wake Maryse up. Phebe and Niel were going strong. She was helping him manage the family business by interning there. She was happy for her friend with how things were falling in place for her. Mila had never imagined being w
" Someone is glowing!" Blair playfully nudged her friend as they walked to class." I always glow," she shrugged." This is different honey, trust me. I think something else is making you glow, or should I say, someone instead?" she asked making her friend blush as she recalled memories of their sexcapade a few days ago." You're blushing!"" No, I'm not Blair," she pouted as they burst into laughter entering their lecture hall.Phebe hadn't returned from Phoenix yet, she was returning tomorrow and she couldn't wait to hear all that her friend had to say.They had a whole lot to talk about and she couldn't wait. The excitement alone was killing her"Do you have to go?" Niel leaned by the door of his bedroom as he watched his girl pack for her flight." As much as I don't want to, babe you know I gotta go." she walked towards him pecking him at the corner of his lips." I know, but, like can't you switch schools or something?" he playfully asked in a cute voice." No, no babe. I can't,
" How's Phoenix baby girl?" Mila asked Phebe as soon as she answered the phone." It's beautiful, great actually," she answered grinning from ear to ear on the phone." Seems like someone is treating you nice, yes?" she asked about her brother." He is, and I am amazed at how fast a person could change. He's everything I've ever wanted in a man now," Phebe blushed making Mila 'awwwn' at the other end of the line." Yeah, babe, I will call you back in a few. He's taking me out on a surprise. I will update you on whatever happens. Say hi to lover boy for me," she added hanging up the call.Hayes walked into the apartment feeling tired and worn out. He had a terrible day at school and practice and wasn't in the mood for anything else apart from food and sleep." Hayes, are you okay?" she asked him as she met him in the kitchen getting food for himself after a quick shower." I'm fine," he answered walking past her." Babe, you don't look good. What happened?" Mila asked again. Aside from
“ Get a room love birds!” Willow screamed at Hayes and Mila from the penthouse. Hayes and Mila stood at the shore of the beach sucking each other’s faces off.They had traveled out to one of Khalil’s father’s penthouse which was close to the beach. They needed to bond before they headed back to school the following week. Mila smiled at her friends while walking along the shore with her boyfriend. Phebe, Willow, and Khalil stood looking down at them and Raine and Rémy. “ Aren’t you both joining them for some fun?” Willow asked them.“ Nope,” they both replied popping the ‘p’“ Besides, breakfast is ready. We better start heading inside,” Khalil announced. “ Breakfast is ready love birds!” Phebe yelled at the top of her lungs notifying the couples by the shore. “ Coming!” Mila replied as they headed for the house." Excuse me, let me take this," Phebe said walking out to answer the call as her friends sat at the table eating breakfast." Is she going to be okay?" Khalil asked after
