Lavender's Point Of View: Charlie squatted to take off my shoes for me. I immediately bent, gently taking his hands away from me. “Don't take them off, I'm leaving soon." I whispered. He let out a small laugh in a whisper before rising up, his enigmatic eyes lighting up in the dimly lit room. “Oh. No, you don't have to actually. You obviously have nowhere to go.” He reminded me. Right! I had nowhere to go since I didn't want to stay with mum. But I would rather sleep in a hotel than stay here at Charlie's house. I didn't want our past history repeating itself again. I immediately shook my head vigorously, “N-no. I'll stay at a hotel. You shouldn't bother anyway." I said, forcing a smile as I looked back, reaching for my phone. “You don't…. have to…. I promise nothing will happen to you. I know you're bothered about our past but I feel like we should leave the past in the past and move on. I'm only trying to help you, Lavender.”. I forced a smile, humming as I nodded. “mhmmn. This isn't about something happening to me. I know you're over me but I'm no…. I- nevermind. I can't stay here, it reminds me of everything and-”. He cut me off, letting out a sigh. "We can forget about everything that happened between us. That was several years ago back in highschool. Several. Years. Ago.”. He could forget because he wasn't the hurt one. Only if he knew how much he hurt me that I still haven't got myself a boyfriend after him because of the love I have for him. I saw a future with him but he was blinded and never saw it, he was just an oblivious bad boy with hot looks and I ignored that every lady drooled on him, only to regret it. Moral lesson; never fall for a guy with hot looks. “I'm sorry, I can't forget, Charlie." I replied, averting his turquoises as I got up, shoving my phone into my pocket. “I'm not worried about the past. I'm worried about you. You can't leave tonight. It's late” He said, standing to block my path. He looked me in the eyes while I looked away, fiddling with the rumpled edge of my shirt nervously. I swallowed before looking into his eyes, “Oh. You cheated on me, and you stand before me to say you're not worried about all that? Very demure of you.". Where did those words come from for fuck's fucking sake?! Why would I say such?! Did I just confront my own ex who I had broken up with for over six years now! I bet I looked nothing less than an obsessed psychopath. “I'm sorry, but that's in the past. We've moved on with our lives, you have, right?" He asked, his words slicing through my fragile heart once more. I felt hot tears sting my eyes. I clutched the edge of my blouse tightly in my grasp as I swallowed hard again, letting out a sigh. I managed to push back my tears. "You should be more worried about yourself now than what happened years ago." He added, furrowing his bows playfully again so I wouldn't read his emotions. “Just a reminder! You cheated on me with my best friend, on prom night! Which was my birthday!!” I tried not to raise my voice but I failed. "It wa-”. I cut him off, shaking my head as I pushed a smile on my face, "You don't have to, Charlie. You already don't care. Besides, that wasn't your first time, was it?” I asked, my voice breaking. Oh. I didn't know if I was out of my senses! Why was I initiating the conversation I avoided like a plague years ago. "It was." He replied firmly, looking into my eyes. I let out a scoff, “I meant with other girls, not with Michelle.". The cat got his tongue. "I was so stupid to have ignored the warnings from other girls. Well, I was stupid again to think I was special when you didn't even share up to fifteen kisses with me, yet you fucked other girls like......”. Why on Earth was I even complaining after six freaking years?! Oh, Lavender, fuck you! “You were special, a rare gem, they were bitches! I didn't want to hurt you!" He said, grabbing my arm roughly. I couldn't bring myself to jerk off my arm from his hot grasp. His Adam's apple bounced as he swallowed while looking into my eyes. He let go of my arm slowly, the tip of his fingers gliding against my hot skin. “So you sought pleasure from other girls. Yet you call me a rare gem? You fucked bitches then you're also a bit.....” I let out a sigh, ignoring my previous sentence. “Forget it, it's not worth it. After all, you don't give two fucks. Oh wait, how would you give two fucks about me when we barely kissed, let alone fuck!”. "Laven-”, I chipped in, "Why did you come to save me, Superman?” I asked. "Just how long have you been watching?”. “I've been watching after you since forever." He said. I slowly anticipated that killer smirk to appear on his face. “Mhmm..... what are you? A scarecrow? It's not like you love me. Why then?" I asked, sitting back on the bed. “You've been revolving around danger and I was lurking for the perfect time to save you.” He mumbled. "Thanks, Superman. As if.”I scoffed, rolling my eyes. He finally gave me that killer smirk I was waiting for. I couldn't help but look away or I would melt at the way those perfect lips curled up to expose his lovely dimples. He was one magnificent work of art. His chiseled chin, his gaze. His straight black hair which was held up with a rubber band, with multiple strands falling. His piercings. His lips. His eyes. There I go, drooling over him again! “Go to bed now.” He ordered, grinning to reveal yet another work of art– his teeth gems. I sighed, squeezing my eyes shut. I needed a break from staring at his perfect face. "I'm leaving, Charlie. I can't do this and please, stop lurking around me anymore. I'll be better off on my own.” I said, rising again. I couldn't just stay. I knew we would either fuck before sunrise or argue all night. To save my dignity, I wasn't going to allow myself to do any of those with my ex. “Your eyes are saying otherwise." He taunted. "I can't stay. See you around, or preferably never.”. My voice was followed by a loud crash coming from outside the room as if someone broke in and accidentally broke a whole shelf. The crash settled before heavy but steady footsteps approached. With each footstep I heard, my heard jumped. I stared at Charlie's face, awaiting his reaction but he only kept furrowing his eyebrows, probably to hide his fear. “Stay here, Lavender. I'll handle this." Charlie spoke, turning to leave the room.004 Lavender's Point Of View: I heard whispers coming from outside the door and I could tell Charlie was speaking with someone. I didn't plan on checking who it was but when he was taking a long time to return, and his whispers began to turn into yells, curiosity got the better of me and I was prompted to check on what was going on. I opened the door slowly and went through the passage, following the voices. I got to a door where the sound seemed to come from, and pushed it open without second thoughts, stepping in slowly only to find Charlie in front of a blonde lady. My eyes traveled to Charlie but immediately returned to the lady after I realized who she was. Michelle! Well, well, well. If it isn't my best friend who betrayed me. If it isn't the devil herself. If It isn't the bitch who gave me sleepless nights. Her eyebrows raised as our eyes met briefly. She snapped her neck back to Charlie as if she couldn't care less. “Here it is." She said, placing an envelope on the
005 Lavender's Point Of View: “What do you mean we had sex?!!" I screamed out my lung, grabbing my forehead as I clutched the sheets to my naked chest. “You did it willingly. Chill, wife." Jayden said slyly. I knew he'd be the one to reply. He was a jerk who didn't care what other people felt. He was a fucking jerk! “You bastard! How dare you?! What were you even thinking?! I'm your FAKE wife not your sex slave and that gives you no right to take advantage of me, are you sick in the balls?!”I yelled. "Quit yelling, bitch. Now fucking listen to me, our billion dollar won't go to waste. Besides, you willingly had sex with us, you forced yourself on us. We had everything recorded.” Jayden threatened. "Don't you fucking dare post that video!". Hayden just sat by the bed, staring at us arguing. I paced back and forth the room, digging my nails in my hair. I couldn't fathom it all. “Chill! Go take a shower and let's return home!" Jayden added. Chill?! How do you expect me to chil
006Lavender's Point Of View:“Take these files to the secretary, she knows just what to do.” Hayden commanded, his voice echoing dominance just like his brother's.I nodded, reluctantly taking the files from the table before turning to exit the office.I entered the elevator which took me to the ground floor where I gave the secretary the files before returning back into the elevator.I just wished the elevator would just get stuck for a few minutes and I would get the opportunity to at least rest or sit. I've been going back and forth since 8am and my legs were starting to get weak but the twins failed to notice it.Soon enough again, I was back on the third floor. I stepped out of the elevator, striding towards the office but just as my grasp tightened on the door knob, my phone rang in my breast pocket, stealing my attention.I fetched it, staring at the screen.LAURAIt was my personal assistant who was in charge of my company when I wasn't available.But she was more than just
001 Lavender's Point Of View: I stepped into the hall with a huge smile on my face as my beautiful white dress that I was forced to wear, kissed my curves nicely. It was my 23rd birthday and I was thrown this amazing party. Mum managed to prepare everything perfectly and honestly, I was impressed. The decorations, the grinning guests, the piano, everything! But something seemed off, everyone was seated at either side of the hall. I looked forward, only to realize I was the only one on a red carpet with three men waiting at the front of the hall. Two of the men who looked alike were dressed in black suits while one was dressed in a Wine suit. My eyes scrambled for nothing but Mum's face. I spotted her seated in a front seat with a forced smile on her face which secretly told me not to waver. My eyebrows furrowed as I mouthed, “What?". My grasp tightened on my dress, I walked down the red carpet, my legs shaking. The man in a wine coloured suit began, “Hayden and Ja
002 Lavender's Point Of View: “What do you mean by the god-damned meeting has been canceled?!" Jayden raised his voice. I lost my tongue, my gaze lowering immediately, “I-I'm sorry, but it isn't my fault that they don't want to collaborate with the company anymore." I responded in a silent whisper. "Bu-" He banged his hand on the desk, making me flinch. "How dare you question my query?!! That deal is worth a billion dollars, the amount that was used to buy you! And you stand here acting like you don't care! I can buy your god-damned Mother also with that money!" He yelled. My heart squeezed in my chest as I took in his words, swallowing hard on the lump in my throat. "I should have known you would bring nothing but doom upon this company! Aren't you supposed to be my wife?! A supportive wife! But you're only a curse. I so much regret spending that one billion dollar!! Using it for charity would have been better!". Yes, am I not supposed to be your wife? Why am I your maid
