If you are all confused at the end, I am sorry. I did not want to say too much or do too much. Xander still isn't ready to move on, and that is how I want him to be. I have nothing more and nothing less to say. Thank you all for sticking this through. I hope you loved this book just as much as I loved writing it. It's been a long journey, and I love and appreciate you guys. Once again, thank you for your love and support. Happy holiday's
21 years prior to current plot...Alone across the leaves filled park in the sandbox kneels down an oblivious, blissful beauty.Inattentive of her surroundings she simply gathers up sand silently to build whatever she can from it.Halfway through her masterpiece what seems like a large rock clashes against her work sending it down into nothing but the sand it used to be.She stares at the mess before her for a minute, then the rock that caused the damage. Gently picking it up she outstretches her arm and opens up her hand, the rock sitting upon her open palm."You dropped this," she whispers in a meek manner, her eyes trained on the ground she waits patiently for the owner to take their belonging and leave her be.The rock is roughly grabbed out of her soft hand, she looks up at the person through her thick lashes waiting for her 'thank you'.Instead she meets ten harsh eyes glaring at her, the leader of the four st
"Rosie, please don't do this. We enjoy having you home." I raise an eyebrow at my best friend.He sets his cup of coffee down and glares at me through the newspaper, he roughly snatches the newspaper from her and trudges up the stairs muttering colourful words in Spanish."Julia viene a hablar con tu amigo!" He yells turning the corner. *Julia come speak sense into your friend!*I quietly snicker to myself and get off the barstool to make us breakfast, since yesterday when I announced I needed a job they've been up my a** about it.Lia walks down the stairs in a pink robe, a green mask covering majority of her face. I set the oil in the pan and begin cracking the eggs.She sits in the place I was in just now and sighs, "The interview is tomorrow isn't it?" She asks tiredly.I nod my head beating the eggs, "You really want to do this don't you?" She clarifies.I nod once more this time setting the toast, Julia sighs heavily evidently tired. "Then... I
f**king s**t."I stumble back from the shed impact, my chest and and stomach start burning up. The first thing I do is pull my soaked shirt away from me body, the white shirt now brown and some steam floating above it."Follando idiota, tienes la camisa empapada. ¿Es tan difícil ver a dónde vas? ¡Ahora tengo una reunión en una hora y mi camisa está empapada por ti! Jesucristo, mocosos ricos." I snap angrily, I shrug off my surprisingly clean blazer and hold it my hand still staring at the mess on me.*F**king idiot, you got my shirt soaked up. Is it so hard to watch where you' re going?! Now I have a meeting in an hour and my shirt is soaked because of you! Jesus Christ, rich brats.*The guy remains quiet, "You know what? Next time why don't you watch where you're f**king going? Is that too hard?" I snap walking around him.As I do that I catch a whiff of his cologne, it's far much enticing than the elevator guy's one. It's a mixture of m
"Rosa? Rosie wake up." I shrug away the hand on my shoulder moaning."Your alarm has been going off for the last fifteen minutes, you're going to be late." My eyes snap open at the announcement.I snap upright and jump out of bed then glance at the clock, "Julia it's four o'clock," I groan."Exactly, come on. What happened to wanting to stay fit?" She asks.I get back into bed and pull the sheets up to cover my face, "that was before I got a job that keeps me on my feet all day.""Really?" She asks, I pull the blanket off and look at her sad face. Every second that I look at her I can see the sadness growing.I get out of bed once more and glare at her, "get your guilt tripping butt out of here I'll meet you downstairs in five."The sadness is immediately replaced by happiness, "did I tell you how much I love you?" I hit her with my pillow, "out!" She laughs walking out of my room. I fall back on the bed sighin
"You look new. Lost?" I look behind me and catch eyes with a hella cute guy if I must admit.Hazel eyes, dark skin and brown curly hair, a blush creeps up my face."That obvious?" I chuckle nervously, he gives me a lop-sided smile revealing a barely visible dimple."Jared but call me J" He introduces, I smile back at him."Rosaleigh but you can call me Rosie, Rosa, Leigh or whatever." I ramble blushing once more.He laughs at my embarassment, "cute, how about Ro? New nickname to your already long list." He jokes.I laugh along with him shrugging my shoulders, "Wanna join us?" He asks pointing behind him.I look over and nod, I follow behind him and slip into a chair next to him, the girl and guy sitting across us smile at me."Ro this is Joanna and Kae, this is Rosaleigh." I smile back at them.Joanna is a cute girl with beautiful blue eyes that contrast with her raven hair and Kae has brown eyes with brown hair."So Ro in which departmen
"Morning sir," I grin taking a seat next to him, he looks up from his laptop for a second to acknowledge me."Señorita.""Princess," I coo at the girl sitting next to me, she grins revealing her small little teeth."Morning Miss Leigh," she giggles looking back at the iPad in her hands."You're a little hyper for someone who's up at seven am." Nic comments, I chuckle looking at him."Good morning Nicholas and yes I am because this is my first time travelling out of the country so of course I am." "This is still a work trip but I suggest you get some rest because this will be a long flight." Grey instructs, I nod buckling my seatbelt.My phone dings in my purse so I quickly dig it out as the plane takes off, I see the message from Jared making me smile.Morning beautiful ;)~JMorning J, didn't I tell you to stop calling me that?~RIt's true.~JWell I don't think your gir
⚠️Warning⚠️ Mature content ahead. Skip by bold words.*~*~*~*"Good morning." I greet, shocked by the silence I look around. "Where's Noelle?" I ask.Mr Grey turns around, "morning señorita, she's at the beach with Nicholas." He explains sliding a bowl of Natillas to me, I mutter a small 'thank you' and dig in, instantly moaning at the different flavours exploding in my mouth."Oh my, did you make this?" I ask dumbfounded, a small smile tugs at his lips."You still have a lot to learn about me, señorita. I will be in my office if you need anything." He says about to leave, I quickly swallow down the food and stop him."Uhm yeah, I was wondering if I could go to the mall, do a little sight seeing if that's alright with you?" I ask, he raises an eyebrow."And if you get lost?" I take my phone and raise it waving it around. "Google maps will help." He shakes his head."I'm coming with you, be ready in an hour." He
Ten meetings and seven hours later we find ourselves driving into a different neighbourhood to our last meeting of the day.Unlike all the other places we've been to, this one looks more rugged more 'dangerous' and with the darkness surrounding us it looks worse.I quickly tie my sandals and get back to finishing my apple, the only thing I've been able to eat since breakfast.Grey offered to stop for lunch but I refused realizing how tight the schedule was, I guess it comes with the job.As we drive in silence, I gaze out the tinted windows. My heart mellows at the sight of run down houses that we pass by, children, teens, adults with babies litter the streets like common trash.Tears come at my eyes and I frown when I see a small child sitting by an corner with torn pants, bare feet and chest."Can we stop?" I ask my boss with pleading eyes, he gives me a curious look. I look out the window then back at him, sighing he calls out
