ALEXANDER'S POV: I was awaiting when Christmas would come so that I could spend my time with her. Also, I wanted to spend my time with the kids. I know my parents would go to the orphanage a few times to give out presents and I would just go out with my friends to spend Christmas evening. My parents regularly visit the orphanage, no scratch that, it is still home when everyone in there is one family. My friends and family have grown close to the kids there and they love us as much as I do. "Wakey... Wakey..." Raymond jumped on me out of nowhere startling me. I caught him and fell on the bed chuckling. He sat on my stomach as I tickled him making him squirm against me. He laughed as I smooched him in his stomach. "So much eager for Christmas, are we?" I chuckled as he kicked his leg at me. "Yes! I want presents too." Raymond smiled showing his teeth. "Only when you give me a kiss." He pressed his lips on my cheek giggling. "Did I interrupt the brother's moment?" My dad came in sm
MIREYA'S POV: I'm glad Noah joined and surprised us at the last minute or it would have been so sad for us leaving a person behind for Christmas. I was so excited as I saw everyone in my home laughing and chatting. It felt like they all completed our family. Even though they don't have to be here for Christmas, they planned and insisted that they wanted to celebrate Christmas with us this year and maybe the upcoming year too. I glanced up at the room to see everyone was chatting and bickering with others. I smiled unknowingly looking at them, it made me happy to see the kids having a good time with others. I glanced at Alex who was with Emma talking something as she sent him heart eyes. This girl has a crush on my boyfriend. My boyfriend. It felt so surreal knowing that the person whom I love since childhood is my boyfriend at last. The person whom I admired from afar is my boyfriend. The person with whom I wanted to spend my life with is my boyfriend. I blushed at the word 'Boyfrie
MIREYA'S POV: The next four days passed like a lightning bolt. It is finally new year's eve. I was so excited than ever and more nervous too. I have a slight feeling that something good is going to happen. I can't seem to pinpoint it but I can feel it in my heart. Today we all are heading to the Knight's home where we will celebrate New Year's evening. Only close friends are called for tonight's event and everyone are excited as I'm. The family and the persons whom I cherish are going to be there with me and we all are going to start this new year with everyone's togetherness and happiness. "Still contemplating on what to wear?" My mom entered my room while I pouted looking back and forth at the pile of clothes on my bed and her. She shook her head smiling at me as she entered the room scratching her chin in a thinking manner. "Whatever you are planning to wear, Alex is going to like it. Then why, so much chaos?" My mom wiggled her eyebrows winking at me. I groaned closing my face
MIREYA'S POV: Emily gasped at the scenario while I gave them an 'I don't know what to do' look. Kayden and Ethan were kissing feverishly while their shirts were thrown over somewhere in the store room. Kayden and Ethan stood there half-naked wide-eyed looking at Emily who was still in shock. I bit my lips anxiously waiting for Emily to speak because I don't think Ethan has ever said that he is gay which was not a big issue, but I don't know what his parents would think of it. Emily is a sweet one and I don't think she would disapprove of them. "You! You both!" Emily stood there with her hands on her hips with a murderous glare. I gulped not knowing what to say or what to do to help them at the moment. She inhaled and exhaled calming herself. Ethan and Kayden looked like they had seen a ghost and I could tell they both are going to pass out. "Why didn't you tell me that you were dating Kayden?" Emily asked surprising all of us. I thought she would be asking that Ethan was gay, but s
ALEXANDER'S POV: She is there beside me lying on the bed along with me. This beautiful amethyst eye-colored girl stole my heart solely and kept it for herself. She is a girl I met unexpectedly and beautiful inside and out. She is sleeping soundly snuggling to my side as she is wrapped up in my arms and legs tangled together. I studied her face which is always glowing with the damn blush whenever she is with me. There is a slight acne on her cheeks which is almost gone because of her healthy eating habits and exercise. She is beautiful still whatever she hates in her body, I love all the things in her. Something tugged at my heart when I saw her face in the sunlight shining brightly. I don't know what this feeling is, but I like it. My heart skipped a beat when she unconsciously smiled snuggling closer to me hiding her face in my chest. How many times even though I think about this, I thought no girl would ever be able to steal my heart, but she stole my heart. I'm not planning to as
MIREYA'S POV:I was wondering what Alex wanted to ask me after winning his match tonight. He didn't have to ask me with so much hesitation, if he asked I would give him whatever he wanted. After he went with the team, I went to sit on the bleachers with our friends and family. I sat beside Isabella as we all sat there waiting for the match. This is an important match in all of the student's life because so many college funders are here for admission. I wish everyone gets lucky and get college admission to their desired colleges. I hope it happens. The match started with so much tension and anticipation because all of us were excited at the same time tense. Of course, winning might be important, but what is more important is their improvement in their game skills. I hope they win this match. The entire ground was swept clean and the sides decorated. There were chairs on one side and the rest of the ground was open for the spectators. We all were seated and I can sense Athena was a bit
ALEXANDER'S POV: Rage would be an understatement for what I'm currently feeling now. How could they do such a thing to her? Don't they have feelings? Do people still think that outer beauty is the only thing that got power in the world? People are messed up. Beauty fades when we age, but inner beauty is the only thing that stays with us. Fuck! nowadays men only care about good character, not appearance. If a girl is skinny or black or white or has curly hair or straight hair or chubby, she is beautiful if she has a beautiful heart no matter what. That fucking Maddy and her minions, if I had known that she had done this thing to her, I would have killed her on the spot. I won't even regret it. This school has done so much more mental harm to her than physical ones. That bitch is going to suffer now for what she had done to the others and my girl in the past. She is going to endure all the pain that she has caused my girl. No one hurts her and not even me. She has been hiding all th
ALEXANDER'S POV:I pushed her against the car door making her shiver at the contact with the cold metal. My hands sneaked up to her waist as I pulled her impossibly closer. She tastes euphoric just as always when I kiss her. She tangles her finger in the roots of my hair tugging it lightly making me groan in satisfaction. The kiss becomes more feverish as the rhythm of our lips moves faster. Her lips part slightly making me sneak my tongue into her mouth. I explored her never-endless needy body with my hands and tongue."Fuck! You are fucking seducing me!""We have only an hour left before my curfew." She reminded me as I wasted no time and opened the car door we both sat on the passenger seat with her on my lap and her legs wrapped around mine. She gasped at the sensation as she felt my hard-on through my pants. "Only you can do this to me, only you!" I whispered and I started giving friction to our lower parts making her whimper. My finger tugged at the lace that tied at the lower
ALEX'S POV:After five years,Verse 1 (Alex): I see your face in every dream, A love so pure, it makes me scream, The echoes of your laughter fade, In memories, your light will never shade.Pre-Chorus (Adam): You were my hope, my guiding star, Now I'm left with these scars, In every shadow, I see your grace, But I can't hold you, can't erase.Chorus (Both): Forever in our hearts, you stay, A love that time can't take away, You're the song we sing, In every tear, in everything.Verse 2 (Alex): Your touch, your smile, your gentle ways, They haunt my nights, they fill my days, In every breath, I feel your loss, A life without you is such a heavy cost.Pre-Chorus (Adam): You gave us strength, you gave us love, An angel sent from up above, Now the skies have called you home, But in our hearts, you're not alone.Chorus (Both): Forever in our hearts, you stay, A love that time can't take away, You're the song we sing, In every tear, in everything.Bridge (Alex): I clos
ALEX'S POV:"Alex," Adrian's voice cut through the fog of my grief, gentle but insistent. "You need to eat something. You need to take care of yourself."I shook my head, not looking up. "I can't," I whispered. "I can't do anything without her."He sat beside me, his hand on my shoulder, his own grief evident in his eyes. "I know," he said softly. "But Mireya wouldn't want you to waste away. She would want you to live, to find a way to go on."I knew he was right, but the thought of living without her was unbearable. How could I go on when the love of my life was gone? How could I face each day knowing she wouldn't be there to share it with me? It's been a week, but I can't still move on or do anything without her beside me. "Just try," Adrian urged, his voice breaking. "For her. For all the love you shared."I nodded, though I didn't know if I could. But I owed it to Mireya to try, to find a way to honor her memory, even if it felt impossible."You know, the human brain relives for s
ALEXANDER'S POV:I wiped the blackish blood from my hands as I stared at the emergency room in the hospital. She has been in there for almost three hours and I refuse to do anything. My mind was in a whirlwind, filled with images of her in pain, her beautiful white wedding gown stained with black colored blood. I refused to leave, refused to do anything but wait for some news, any news. The thought of losing her was unbearable. Every minute stretched into an eternity, and I could feel my heart breaking with each passing second.I had never felt so helpless in my life. The pain in her eyes, her anguished screams—those images haunted me as I waited for any news from the doctors.Family and friends were gathered around, their faces etched with worry and sorrow. My parents were trying to console Mireya's mother, who looked like she had aged a decade in just a few hours. Adrian was sitting with his head in his hands, tears streaming down his face. Finally, after what felt like an eternity,
MIREYA'S POV:Finally, it's my wedding day...I stood in front of the mirror, hardly believing that the reflection staring back at me was really me. My wedding gown was everything I had ever dreamed of – a delicate blend of elegance and simplicity, with intricate lace details that cascaded down to the floor. The dress hugged my figure perfectly, accentuating my curves... well, not curves, just bones, and still, it made me feel like a princess. The dress was everything I had ever dreamed of and more.Everything was ready and prepared because of all of them. They have been surprisingly planning a Wedding for Alex and me. They hid the fact that they had been preparing for this a couple of months ago. I was so dumb to realize it. I was so immersed in taking videos for each family member. I want to leave them only the happiest memories even if I'm gone someday. I want them to remember me only in their best and happiest memories. I don't want them to remember the sadness or the moment they
ALEXANDER'S POV:"I wouldn't mind, you know... Should we make that a reality?" I kissed the corner of her mouth as she snuck in a sharp breath. When it comes to Mireya, I mean every word I say. She's the only girl for me, the one I truly need in my life, every word I speak about her comes from the heart. Mireya is the one who completes me, and I can't imagine my life without her. She's my everything. In a world full of choices, Mireya is the one I choose, today and always."Alex," she whispered, her voice trembling. She opened her mouth to say something, but I could tell she couldn't bring herself to speak. I had to tell her how I felt, and there was no better time or place than right here, surrounded by the children whose lives she was about to change."Because I mean it, when it comes to you, I say and mean only the truth because Mireya, you are the only girl for me, the only one I need in my life."The children, sensing something special was happening, gathered around us, their eyes
MIREYA'S POV:I woke up with Alex's arm around me and yesterday was incredible with him always. We danced, we sang, and we had sex, it may sound cringe, but we made love. Fuck, Alex is my man. I can't believe we became a single soul again. I turned slightly to look at him, his peaceful face relaxed in sleep. His dark hair fell over his forehead, and his lips were slightly parted. Even in sleep, he was the most handsome man I had ever seen. My heart swelled with love for him. I gently brushed a strand of hair from his face, trying not to wake him.But Alex, ever the light sleeper, stirred and opened his eyes. He smiled that lazy, sexy smile that never failed to make my heart skip a beat. "Morning, Kuschelbar," he murmured, his voice deep and husky from sleep."Good morning," I replied softly, leaning in to kiss him. His lips were warm and familiar, and I felt a shiver of happiness run through me. "Sleep well?""Always do when you're next to me," he said, pulling me closer. His hand t
ALEXANDER'S POV:I wanted some alone with her. It was so difficult to remain untouchable in the home with her by my side; there were kids everywhere. I didn't even get a full kiss because the kids always surrounded her. I know they love them, but I want some attention too. They always steal her away from me. So, I took Mireya out today to our private beach where my dad and mum would spend time together. She looked so beautiful in her summer floral dress. Her amethyst eyes looked bright and beautiful just like her skin. The horizon was tinged with the soft hues of twilight, where the sun's last rays kissed the water with a gentle caress. Our private beach stretched out before us, a sanctuary of sand and sea that Mireya adored. I watched her from a distance as she stood at the water’s edge, the breeze playing with her hair, her silhouette framed by the golden glow of the setting sun.I walked up behind her, slipping my arms around her waist. She leaned back against me, sighing contente
ALEXANDER'S POV: When she first met her idols for the first time, the look on her face will always live rent-free in my mind. I know how she loved them and how their songs healed a part of her hurt heart. She was awestruck and I'm happy that I'm the one making her wishes come true. She adores them, but I'm not too fond of the fact that they act close to her. I know I'm being stupid and paranoid here, but she is my woman, no one else is allowed to touch her, especially strangers. But she is happy that's all that matters to me at the end of the day. She ate all the food she had been craving to eat. But she was sad when she said she couldn't able to feel the taste of the food. Because of her cancer treatment, she wasn't able to taste it because the food tasted tasteless or like mud. I hate seeing her like this, but she pushed those thoughts away and started eating normally. She doesn't show her feelings in front of me, that is fine. But I can sense her even from a mile just by the look
MIREYA'S POV: Alex - my savior. He is the perfect example of a man. A man who does anything for his woman. His love for me exceeded my love for him. If he asked me 'The love I have for you, the love you have for me, whose love is more?', I would say that instant is 'His Love'. But he would have answered that perfectly, 'Will you see the love we share as two?'. There were so many moments when I wanted to ask him to marry me. He took more effort to rectify his mistake in the past and I forgave him long ago. I can't stay away from him; he is the one I have loved since childhood. He knew, he definitely knew that I would want to meet the famous K-pop band 'BTS'. He surprised me by booking all the tickets and arranged a meeting to meet them. I'm beyond happy because of the unknown stranger people who tried to heal me with their music. I don't know how he did it, or what he did to agree to make them meet me. It's so generous of them to agree to meet me despite their busy time. I packed
