2024-10-29 19:42:56I and Thomas were talking about books and different genres that we liked to read. The time flew and I had no idea that it had been so long until I looked outside and saw that the sun was starting to set.
”What time is it?” I asked him. He looked at his watch and his eyes grew three sizes.
”19:30, wow,” He said and I freaked out. We had ordered coffee from the cafe next door and eaten baked goods and bagels for hours, talking about books. We had staked a few piles of books that we brought out to share with each other and It had been so fun.
”I think it’s time to head back home,” I said with a smile. Thomas nodded his head in agreeance and we started putting all the books back in their place.
As we were walking out of the b

The day had just begun and it still felt amazing. Regardless of the little debacle downstairs earlier, I wouldn't let it ruin my good mood.An office message popped up on my screen from Ashton saying he wanted everyone gathered in the hall right away. This only happened when there was a big announcement to be made, or at least that’s what I heard.I walked out and gathered with the others who were standing around, Ashton was standing in front of everyone, ready to speak.Pazzi came walking towards me. His shoulders had a predatory bow and his nostrils were flaring. He came and stood next to me. He looked to be bothered by something. Pazzi nudged my arm and leaned down.”How much did you and Jackson speak?” He asked me. He showed little to no emo

I strutted towards the door as slowly as possible hoping he would change his mind before my hand reached the handle.”I think a snail just passed you, Ms. Shaw,” Ashton said sarcastically, sounding as bored as ever.I sighed and bit my lip, walking faster and opening the door before heading out.Thomas was still surrounded by people and I turned to face Ashton. I lifted my hands to my sides and tilted my hip.”See? I’ll say hi later,” I said and tried walking away.My hand was gripped tightly and I was dragged through the crowd and over to Thomas.”Mr. Johnson, this is Elena Shaw, my assistant,” He said and pushed me to the front.Everyone got quiet and I hoped to god that Thomas saw the pleads in my eyes and knew what to do.

I was in the building restaurant buying lunch. I opted for the spaghetti bolognese and went to sit by an empty table. I dug in right away and hoped that nobody would join me.The sooner I finished my lunch the sooner I could continue with work and forget about this day.I do however need to speak with Thomas, we need to get our story straight.”Excuse me, is this seat taken?” Speaking of the devil.”No, please, sit,” I said and smiled at Thomas as he took a seat.I looked around to make sure that nobody would hear me before I spoke.”Thank you for not showing that we knew each other earlier,” I said.

So much fucking drama.I groaned, burying my face in my pillow, dreading the day ahead.I felt sore, but not from working out nor from being too physically active. I felt sore from top to toe from all the shit going on. My mind was begging me for a break, for a pause.I desperately wanted to obey but there was no way in hell that Ashton would allow me to take a leave of absence.It was Friday, meaning I had tomorrow to look forward to. The scary movie marathon with Thomas. We had agreed that I would bring wine and two scary movies that I liked and he would get the snacks and two movies that he found scary.And we would binge-watch scary movies and eat crap all day and night until our eyes couldn’t bear to stay open.

He had glistening blue eyes. They were really a sight to behold.”The name’s Elena,” I said with a smile.”Charles! What’s your input on the DC project?” Mr. Abarnathe asked him.His eyes however were still on me. He didn't move his head or pay any attention to his father.I felt myself shivering under his gaze. As if he was asorting dominance over me.I automatically leaned towards Ashton without thinking about it. When I felt his arm I jumped in shock and looked up at him.I can't rely on him for protection anymore.

We had all gathered around the conference room table once again. Charles was next to his father and Pazzi was next to me.The tension was so thick you could cut through it with a knife. Everyone was uncomfortable and I couldn't wait for this fucking meeting to be over. I needed to speak with Ashton and it was urgent.Nobody was talking, everyone was silent as the only noise came from the clock on the wall. Edging me into madness with every ’tick’ it made.”I believe this meeting is over,” I said, unable to take the awareness nor the gun-pointed dickheads that were sitting both in front of me and next to me.I needed answers. I may not deserve them but If I want to have any chance of being happy, I need to know why he told me he left the Ma

”Hi, where’s Mr. Carlson?” I asked one of the IT guys by the coffee machine.”No idea, he hasn’t been in the office for three days,” He said and I nodded my head.I hadn’t been here for two days either, I called in sick.When I got here I noticed how calm everyone was, Jasmine was moping by her desk and the other girls were doing their job without talking much. It was all very weird.Apparently, Ashton hadn't been here for the past few days and neither had Pazzi.I walked to my office and got ready to work. But as I sat there, I couldn't think of what to do. As if I had forgotten all my assignments, papers, jobs, and even how to start the computer.

”Pazzi you don't understand,”I said in a gasp.”Then help me to understand!” He yelled as he paced around the apartment.”I can’t!” I shouted from where I stood.Pazzi turned around and took quick steps towards me.”You were nearly killed today, Elena! Whatever the fuck it is, you can tell me!” He shouted. His warm breath hitting my face with every word.I stared at him befuddled.”How much do you know Pazzi?” I asked him in merely a whisper.”Everything,” I drew in a deep breath before nodding my head.I grabbed his hands in mine and locked his eyes with mine.

~Ashton~Elena had been quiet ever since she came back from her doctors appointment.She had barley said two words and it was making me eery, thinking that something was wrong and she wasn't telling me.She was poking her fork in her past, not eating. My patience was running thin, I had let her be for the entire day thinking she would tell me eventually.”Talk.” I demanded and glared at her form the opposite side of the table.Whatever it was I couldn't help her unless I knew the problem. If someone had been mean to her, I'd kill them. If someone had hurt her, well, I'd kill them. If anything was medically wrong, I'd kill the doctor for telling me.Elena looked up in a haze and shook her head with a forced smile.

Five days later~Elena~I had been discharged form the hospital earlier than expected. Everything looked great and my vitals were above the ordinary.Ashton had been by my side the entire time, which Lisa had said was adorable and in-suffering at the same time.We were driving back to Ashtons house, Lisa, clint and Pazzi were all there.As we drove on the main road, I felt Ashtons hand on my thigh and smiled as I looked at him.”This is were our lives begin,” I said.”No, this is us continuing were we left of.””You were always my life, Elena,” the butterflies in stomach stirred to

Lisa had some hidden talents. She wired the car so that it started and I looked at her in confusion.”The man my mom was married too would always have me help him steal cars. I was underaged then so I couldn't get any real punishment,””No, don't look at me like that. Came in handy didn't it?” She said and glanced at the car.I smiled softly and nodded my head. Taking a deep breath I got in behind the wheel and closed the door. I looked over to the passenger seat and saw Lisa stepping in.”Oh no, you’re not coming,” she scoffed and fastened her seatbelt.”Just drive,””Lisa,” I warned.”Elena, you’re my bestfriend. My only friend. If you think I'm letting you go to that psychotic bitch on your own, not knowing wha

I woke up, for the first time in a long time, feeling rested and happy. I woke up to the feeling of wanting to open my eyes and start the day. Something I hadn't felt in a very long time.I rolled over and patted the side where Ashton had fallen aslepp beside me. Only to find it empty.My eyes darted open and I sat up quickly, looking aorund. Hoping it hadn't all been a dream.I was in the room, in the cabin. That much was true.But where was Ashton?I got up form the bed and strolled over to the closet. My robe hung on the hook beside it and I wrapped it around me.I walked over to the door but just as I was about lay my hand on the handle, someone else opened it.

Clint had brought me and Lisa to a house in the middle of nowhere. Something told me that I should've had better second guessingtechniques regarding people after what happened with Thomas.But now we where here and there was no time to second guess anything”This is so cute!” Lisa shrieked as she ran out of the car.At least I had her with me to lighten the mood.I couldn't but agree with her, this house was adorable in a fairytale way. It was a wooden house with a small tower-looking part in the middle. There were four windows and a porch.Outside was a big patch of land, with chairs set up around a camp fire pit.It felt like home in a way.It had a homey feeling that I had missed immensely.&

We were sitting in the living room. Me and Lisa on one couch and Clint on the other. He still hadn't spoken and the silence grew heavier as the moments passed. He was watching me, searching my face, his eyes held many unspoken questions that I wanted to hear.I had heard his surname before, I was sure of it. But no matter how hard I tried remembering from where, I had nothing. I couldn't put my finger on it. And now here he was, in our living room.He must know Ashton pretty well considering they were seen outside together, but in my time with Ashton, I hadn't seen Clint.Lisa stirred beside me, unable to meet clits gaze. She looked really unconfortable and held her coffee cup close to her chest.”To what do we owe

I walked out onto the serving floor again after what had just happened. People were eating, drinking, talking as if a man wasn't nearly killed in the back. Of course, they didn't know but I did.Ashton was back at the table, probably getting a scolding from Katia. But his eyes were glued me the rest of the evening.I could feel his stare burn into my from every angle, wherever I was.I was going to pay for this, I could sense it.Katia was laughing, talking to Clint, but she seemed eery about something. She shifted uncomfortably in her seat and I wondered what it was that had her so squeamish. I knew that if she said the wrong thing, Ashton would explode. He doesn't take crap from anyone, especially when it came to me.The dilemma however, was that he was doing everything he was doing in order to save me, to pro

I had delivered orders to another four tables and was on my way to the bar to collect their drinks. It was unfathomable how much these rich people drank on a Monday. It wasn't even three a clock yet and they were already calling for refills.Another thing I couldn't fathom, was the lozzy tips we got. They were loaded yet three out of four people tipped less than 5%.Making a decent income in this line of work was not easy, but what other choice did I have?”Excuse me Ms, am I going to have to wait all day?” A business man sitting with either his wife or his msittress and another couple, shouted from across the room.I clenched my jaw and through my hand up waving appologetically while forcing a smile on.I had grabbed his martini and two glasses of wine and was making may way to their table.

I had told her everything.Evry. Damn. Thing.Things and happenings that I thought I would bring to the grave. Lisa was crying, holding her knees to her chest and hadn't spoken a word in thirty minutes. Ever since I started telling her, she had been silent, but now, it was starting to freaking me out.I was broken, I should've known a person wouldn't want to be with me through all of this.I can't ask her too either.I can't be so selfish as to ask her to stay with me through my rollercoasting life through hell.Lisa jumped up from the couch and launched herself at me, engulfing me in a big, tight hug.She barried her face in the crook of my neck and continued crying.
