Ember walked into the room with a tray that has plates that were filled with of food in her hands. She put the tray on the small table in front of the couches. She then went into the bathroom, where she found Axle tying his robe while leaning on the kitchen sink. He looked like he was struggling but not much. "Do you need a hand?"Ember asked, walking closer to him."Well I could need help walking back into the room."Axle said, smiling weakly. Ember walked closer to him and she helped him to walk back into the room and she helped him to sit on the couch."I'll go and get your body lotion and your clothes."Ember said and she stood up from the couch. She made her way into the closet and she took a white t-shirt, grey shorts and the body lotion. She walked back into the room and she put the clothes on the bed. "You forgot my underwear again."He said."Sorry, I'll go and get it."She said and then she ran back into the closet, she opened the drawer where he kept his underwear and she took
THREE WEEKS LATER"OH look who's back."Payton said rolling her eyes as soon as she saw Ember entering the house. "Hood evening mother-in-law. It'ssuch a beautifulevening isn't it?"Ember said with a smile on her face, probably doing it to annoy Payton. Payton just shook her head."Of course you would say that."Payton said."And what is that supposed to mean?"She asked."You know I remember that you told me that I was a horrible mother a few weeks ago, but now I don't know who's horrible between the two of us."She said. Ember looked confused."I still don't understand what you are trying to say."Ember said."Today was the day that Dr Lee was supposed to start with the treatment but you decided to wake up in the morning and just go out with your friends. You are lucky that Dr Lee was able to keep Axle alive for the time that you were gone."Payton said. Ember had completely forgotten that it was the day. If she had remembered then she wouldn't have gone out with Sophie for the high schoo
Axle laid down on the bed panting while Ember rested her head on his chest listening to his heartbeat. She moved her finger around Axle's Sixpack. His body still felt cold but Ember tried as hard as she possibly could to ignore it. She just wanted to lay there and enjoy the moment. "How do you have so much energy even when you are not well?"Ember asked."I don't know… Ember can I ask you something?"Axle asked, moving his hand up and down her head slowly and smoothly."Yeah, go ahead."She said."Do you still love me?"He asked. Ember was a bit taken back, she was not expecting Axle to ask her that question. She sat up straight on the bed and she looked at him. He looked at her waiting for her to give him an answer, but she was not sure. She had never asked herself that question, so she didn't think about it. She didn't know if she loved him, if she genuinely loved him, she was not sure what it is that she felt for Axle now, whether it was love, hatred or something else."I…''She paused
Ember finished up showering and she walked out of the bathroom, with a towel wrapped around her body. She found Axle sitting on the bed and he seemed to be busy with something on his laptop because he looked serious and focused. Ember thought that he was not supposed to work until he had fully recovered but she knew that she could not stop him from doing his work so she did not even bother trying to. She closed the bathroom door. Axle lifted his head as soon as he heard her close the bathroom door. He smiled at her, he just could not imagine himself parting ways with her."Why are you looking at me like that?"She asked, smiling back at him."Nothing, I am just looking at the beautiful woman standing in front of me."He said. Ember shook her head, rolling her eyes at him."Thanks for the compliment, what are you doing?"She asked, pointing her finger in the direction of the laptop."Just doing some work, I want to finish to up before my recovery, so that I won't have a load of work after
Ember continued walking until.she was at least an hour away from the mansion. She checked the time on her phone and she saw that it was already 3am. She knew that she had to go back sooner, because it was already too late and she was shivering like crazy, but she believed that she still needed time.She continued walking for about a few minutes and then a car stopped right in front of her. She instantly recognized that car, it belonged to Dean. The last person she wanted to see right now or at any time. Dean got out of his car, he had a smile on his face. Ember wondered what he could be doing on the streets so late at night. He walked closer to her and he just hugged her. Ember quickly pushed him off. "What the hell are you doing?"Ember asked."I am just glad to see you, Ember. Do you know how much I've missed you? What are you doing out here at this hour? Did you finally realise that that fool Axle is not good enough for you and you decided to get back together with me?"He asked. Emb
"Axle. You don't believe this do you?"She asked, but Axle did not answer. Just when she needed him the most he decided not to stand up for her. Maybe she was wrong about him changing and falling in love with her."What more do you want from my son Ember? We get it he hurt you, but did you have to go out there in the streets at 3am and make out with someone else? I should have known that there was something going on between you and that man."Payton said, crying. Anyone could tell that her tears were fake, she was very excited because she was finally going to get her to leave."This isn't true. I only went out for a walk and I just happened to bump into him, and none of this actually happened. This is all a lie."She said. She could feel tears streaming down her face. She regretted not realising it anytime soon that Dean was up to something, but she didn't understand how he knew where she was at that time. Maybe it was a coincidence or maybe not."Save it. I always knew that you were a s
"Axle, are you sure about this?"Ember asked as they walked into the room. Axle was more than ready to leave."Yes. Ember I can't stand it when you are being treated like that. I just want you to be happy."He said, resting his hands on Ember's cheeks, he looked deep into her eyes. His eyes were full of life bow and his body was warm like a normal person's body. "But Axle I don't want to be the one to cause this separation of you from your family. I already have more than enough enemies, I don't want to add more."She said."Don't worry about that, you'll be safe as long as you are with me. I just want us to be together, Ember. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I love you. I don't want you to love here anymore. We need to be alone." He said. This was the first time that he had told her that he loved her truthfully. At first it was a lie but now it wasn't and Ember knew that too."Axle, I don't know about this. I do want to.leave, but not like this. Your mother probably hates
After a few hours the car finally arrived at Axle's private villa. They both got out of the car, Ember was amazed at how big and beautiful it looked. It was mostly a glass house but you could not see what was inside the house. The house was surrounded by tall pine trees, it was very spacious on the front. "Welcome home."Axle said. "Do you like it?"He asked, looking at Ember who was not able to take her eyes off the surrounding."I love it. It's really beautiful."She said. "Come on, if you like it here then I am sure that you are going to love the inside."He said. Ember was sure that sge was going to love the inside of the house, she didn't need to be told if she was going to like it or not. They both made their way towards the double aluminum front door that was only seconds away from them. Axle opened the door for her so she could enter first. As soon as they entered, Ember's mouth widened, the interior was much better looking than the outside. "This place is really beautiful."Embe
