Steven
(Two Days Later)
I have been patrolling all night and morning. I'm was starving, so I decided to stop at the dinner where I always go to eat. I parked the car and made my way inside.
So, yes, the rumors are true. I love sleeping around with beautiful women, and I've slept with most in my town. Hints... Almost all of them, because there's a handful I haven't with, and that includes Audry, the beautiful Audry Miller. She's the most beautiful girl I've ever met.
But she has never given me the day of light. She blows me off and won't ever give me a chance to even talk to her. She's gorgeous, smart, funny...an independent girl that never takes bull from anyone. She has these beautiful eyes that change depending on her mood, or what she wears. There are days when they look green, and mesm
SophieWe finally made it back home. I was exhausted, to say the least, and just to think that in three days I have to travel back to New York to start my book signing tour makes me feel more exhausted.Logan pulls the SUV up to our driveway, yes, you heard me right. I am starting to see his home like my own. I'm still debating whether I should sell my house. I need to soak up in a nice hot bath big time."We're home baby," I say turning around to see a sleeping Nate in the back. Logan's lips rise to a warm smile, I can sense him looking at me as he inhales a deep sigh.I glance over seeing Nate snuggle up next to Charlie. "Did my ears deceive me? You just said...""Home?" I reply making his smile grow wider. He hangs his head and bites his lower lip, quickly pulling me by the back o
Third person pov (Two weeks later)It didn't take Logan much to get the ball rolling for Steven. He had submitted all the paperwork, called in child protective services and they were now investigating the case. Kaitlyn's grandma was aware of this situation and was cooperating with both authorities and Logan. But Roxanne was humming with anger.✨✨✨✨✨✨✨Roxanne"Whether I want to be in the kids' life or not is none of anyone's concern. But I'll be damned if I let her take him. Do you hear me? Over my dead body. You tell that son of a bitch and his lawyer buddy that they have not heard the best of me yet. They want war? They'll get a war, or my name isn't Roxanne Bennett." I yelled my lungs out at the officer in front of me.This was pathetic. If Steven thinks he can have Kaitlyn, he is
Logan"Alright, man. We'll be in touch. And let me know if anything else comes up. See you later, Sophie." Steven yelled over my shoulder as Sophie opened up her laptop to begin working on her latest book."Bye uncle Steven," my little man called out to Steven as he stood by the stairs, yawning and rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand."See you later buddy." Steven calls out to him with a smile."Hi, baby. Did you need something?" Sophie asks Nate as he walks to the kitchen counter and takes a seat next to her, placing his head against her shoulder."Yeah, can I please have a Nutella and peanut butter sandwich? I'm still hungry." He asks, making us chuckle. "Of course baby. Have a seat while I make it. You should of told me you didn't get full earlier. Do you want a glass of milk with it?""Chocolate milk
Nathan (a few days later, first day back to school from Thanksgiving break) I was really excited to see Kenzie today. Dad came back last night telling mom that he found where Kenzie's dad was. I know I should have been asleep, but I couldn't help listen. I was so happy for her. The whole day was going by really slow for me. She had gotten to school late, so I didn't get to tell her before school, so I was really excited, waiting for lunch to come so I can tell her. Finally, our lunchtime came. We all got in line and I made sure to stand right behind her. She was smiling the whole time and looking at me weirdly. "You're up to something. What is wrong with you?" she asks making me giggle. "I have good news," I whispered in her ear. Some of the girls giggled. They kept messing with her, telling her she was my girlfriend, but she's not, I swear. Kenzie is like my sister, I love her, b
Nathan I couldn't help but smile at her as I looked sternly at her. Mia is so amazing. She's fearless. No one has ever stood up to Kaitlyn like she just did. McKenzie hugged her from a side and smiled as Kaitlyn and her friends ran off after Mia confronted them. "Thank you, Mia. You're the best, you know that?" McKenzie said as Mia turns to her and smiled. "You don't have to thank me. Honestly, I don't even know why everyone is so afraid of her. She is not even that scary-looking. I've seen worst girls back in my old neighborhood. She's nothing comparing her to those girls." Kenzie stood there mesmerized by her words. Everyone, including me, thought Kaitlyn was scary and intimidating. How is it that Mia didn't think so? She had to be brave to think this way.
✨✨(Third-person POV~ Audrey made her way home, turning onto her final right to the street headed towards her home. She worried about her smallest sister, Mia. Ever since the death of their mom, Mia hasn't been the same. Her constant nightmares and isolation from the rest of the world is far too much burden on a tiny soul.Their mom had tragically died in a car accident while driving Mia to her afternoon summer-art class. A distracted driver crashed against their car, making Mia's mom's car swerve out of control and crashed onto another car. The distracted driver texting on their phone was left with just a few scrapes, and the third car was badly damaged, but still... The driver was left with scratches and bruises, but luckily, was still alive.Unfortunately for Mia, she was left with a broken arm and a hairline fracture on one of her tiny ribs at just four years of age, besides the many scratches from broken glass
SophieAs usual, Logan picked me up from the office on time and we headed towards our son's school to pick him up. It's so weird... To think that just months ago I was still living in California, still heartbroken with thoughts of Logan being unfaithful.I never would have thought that Amber's jealousy and my bad decision of running away would separate us for so many years.I love him so much, and I don't think I ever stopped loving him. I wonder at times what would have happened had I not run away. Would we still be together? Would we still be this madly in love, or would we have been fed up with each other? I don't think I can ever stop loving him, or get fed up with him.He's so spontaneous, he makes me laugh so much, and there is not a dull moment in our relationship when he doesn't pay
SophieLexie and I grabbed a taxi and made our way to Logan's penthouse. It was fairly close to the library where we will be signing the books tomorrow. All that is left now is grabbing food for our stay this weekend and waiting for the time being."How about we go out to a club tonight, Soph? Johnny is playing in a club nearby. He'll be thrilled to see us there." she asked excitedly, but to be honest with you, I have never been the big party type.Logan loves partying, and most of my friends do for that matter, but I have always felt like I'm out of place. I feel awkward and frankly... I rather stay indoors reading a good book or watching a good movie."Lex, it sounds awesome and all... But to be honest I,""Ok, ok. I won't push it. Besides, I already told Johnny we we
AUTHOR'S NOTE: BOOK THREE WILL BE AVAILABLE IN SEPTEMBER. TITLED 'LOVELY IMPERFECTIONS, ' IT'S A STAND-ALONE BOOK ABOUT NATHAN AND THE GIRL HE FALLS IN LOVE WITH.💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨Sophie(10 years later, June 18th)I stood at my kitchen island, finishing the last touches on my baby's cupcakes. It was his birthday today, finally turning five years old.After my twins were born, we git married, and it didn't go past two years before I was pregnant again with my beautiful baby girl. We decided to name her Ruth Abigail, after Logan's auntie. She was born close to my birthday on the 13th of November. After that, we went by for three more years until I became pregnant with my baby boy, Daniel, or Tarzan, as Logan likes to tease-call him, which by the way, we are naming him after his uncle, Daniel Halloway, who lives in California.I found that until Logan came to Tennessee, his uncle was helping them out because his dad, Charles, had a hard time making ends meet. While his dad attended
Logan"We're here. This is your home, little ones." I say as I hold the baby carriers in front of our home. I placed baby Sam's carrier down slowly and opened the car door for Sophie, holding out my hand for her. She smiles as she reaches out and carefully gets out of the car. She looks so beautiful with her afterglow. Motherhood looks so beautiful on her. I surely must have done something right to deserve this woman. She's a blessing to me, to my boys, to my family, to my life.We made our way inside and were shocked as we were surprised by our family and friends with a big welcome home party for Sophie and my boys. A lot of our townfolk were here as well, welcoming our twins home. There was food everywhere, along with blue balloons, and streamers inside and outside our home. Everywhere I looked, there were people, kids running, smiling, and having a great time. Music played in the back to enlighten the atmosphere. It made me feel so proud of being part if this town."Wow, hey gu
Sophie (May 26th)The months went by flying so fast. Between work, my belly growing and the wedding coming up I was feeling both excited and anxious. I've been getting Braxton hicks all day. I'm only five months along, but my belly looks big compared to how I was with Nathan. He is so impatient, kicking already and moving so much.Oh yes, you heard right, I'm having another boy.We decided to name him Steven Anthony, Tony for short. It just fits him. I mean, yes, Anthony is his second name, but calling him Steven in front of Steven just got confusing, plus, Steven just proposed to Audrey and if they decided to have a baby together shortly, I'm sure they will name him Steven as well.I stood before the mirror, I wore a boho style laced dress with a low back and a deep V-shaped cut in front. I wanted something simple, and the dress that Ashley and I found was perfect, I still had a few months to go, so I'm sur
SophieI was so nervous, and I'm not even the one getting married today. I walked in my heels from one end of the room to the other making sure everything was accordingly. I wanted this day to be perfect for my best friend. Troy deserves the best wedding ever.I wanted to make sure everything was perfect for him. I tried my best to get everything done without having to worry him or Dylan.I checked on the tables, the decoration, the bar, everything. It had to be perfect. My heart was content as I see everything exactly how we had planned. Now the only thing to do was to wait for the wedding to start."Baby, will you slow down. I don't want you to overdue yourself, remember...the baby. You gotta rest, that's what the wedding planner is for. Don't make me call Loretta. Come on, take a breather will you?" Logan says as he pulls me to him. He hugs me, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing my lips. Loretta was my doctor.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: We see now down to our last chapters. I just wanted to say thank you guys for this beautiful journey and for being part of it. I hope you have enjoyed my story. Thank you for the wonderful support, and for staying patient as I underwent a period of emotional roller coasters.💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨SophieWe went home after we celebrated with friends and family. Of course, I'm sure you know what happened... Logan made love to me so passionately. It felt right, like we belonged together, as it should have been from the beginning. That same weekend, we took off to Dubai and we came back a few days after New Year. Let me tell you, Dubai was beautiful, but it rained most nights, so the days were cold. I think next time we go, it will have to be during the summer instead.Troy is getting married in a few weeks, so I have been busy helping him with the last details while he's away in business.Also, Ro
SophieI was anxious. I don't know why, I mean, it's not the first time Logan and I go out on a date. This was a weekly thing we did back in high school. We loved spending time together, but for some reason, I was nervous.He looked stunning, wearing a black suit with a dark blue shirt and matching tie. I decided on a simple black dress that hugged my body perfectly. It was about mid-thigh length, with a low round cut in the front. I wore black stilettos and a long winter coat since it was snowing out already. It was pretty cold out, but I was still warm by the coat and the car heater. It was going to be a while before I became accustomed to the weather here again. The California weather is so unpredictable. It could be December and 90 degrees Fahrenheit out. Yet, it could be May, and be pouring outside. Luckily, this winter was not so harsh here. Sure, it was showing, but it was very light and was not as cold as I remember.W
Sophie (two weeks later)We were getting closer to Christmas. During the weekend, Logan and Nate helped decorate the whole house, and we decorated the Christmas tree with Kenzie's help. The place looked beautiful, every detail was exactly how I imagined it.I woke up feeling like the luckiest girl in the world. Logan stirred in his sleep as I moved his hand away from my waist. I turned, kissing him on his lips getting a smile in return. "I love you, dork," I said kissing him again and going straight to the restroom. I went for a quick shower, brushed my teeth, placed on comfy clothes, and began my day. It was still a bit of a struggle because of my cast, but little by little I began to adjust.I made breakfast for my two favorite men, woke up Nate, and got him ready for his last week of school before we went off to Christmas and New Year's break. By the time I came down to finish breakfast, Logan was sitting down enjoying his breakfast
SophieThe days that followed soon after the accident was not easy for me at all. When I got to go home after five exhaust days, Logan reluctantly made me rest all day for three days straight. I wasn't allowed to get up unless it was for the bathroom or shower. Logan and everyone treated me with so much care and love, but it was so smothering. True, I felt pampered but overwhelmed since I was limited to the things they allowed me to do.Nate and Kenzie were still being bothered by Kaitlyn as the news of her mom being transferred out of the hospital to jail. The thought that she may go to jail for a long time made her scared. I can't imagine how she feels, she is so little and feels abandoned. I hope Steven gets custody of here soon and they can reconcile. She needs a good home.She was already feeling overwhelmed not having her dad in her life. The thought of Roxanne never acknowledging her as her daughter, made her depressed at such a
SophieI woke up feeling lightheaded. Everything spined, and my body ached everywhere. I glanced at the ceiling as it pinned lightly and realized I was not in my room. I tried to sit up, but my head began to throb, and my hand felt like a million stabbing needles as I realized it was in a cast.I grunted as soon as I felt the shooting pain. "Sophie...baby, are you ok?" I hear Logan's voice. I immediately realized he was asleep, in a sitting position on a chair near me. "Logan. What...what am I doing here? Why is my arm in a cast?" I grunted as I bring my hand to my temple.It seems that my head decided to throb harder and spin faster now that I was sitting with Logan's help."Babe, it's ok. You don't have to remember everything now, but, you were in a car accident baby. You were hit pretty hard. As you can see, your left arm was broken, and you need to take it easy when sitting or laying down. You have a hairline frac
