”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.

    I walked over to the window in the kitchen and looked out, only to see a black car standing there with its headlights on. Ashton was leaning against the car and so was another man but I couldn't make out who it was.I looked back at Thomas who was standing by the sink. His eyes held panic and mine must’ve held a helpless ’we’re screwed’ look.”You should probably,” Thomas started off. I nodded my head and opened the door to meet the devil.”What do you want, Ash?””Watch the attitude, Elena,” He countered. The closer I got the more I could make out the other man. It was Pazzi.”Get in the car,” Ashton said. I looked at him in sh

    ”Leave.” I said plainly as I stared into the eyes of the man I least wanted to speak to.”We need to talk,” he said.”I said leave, there is nothing you can say that I would be interested in hearing. And I have nothing to say to you,” I saw the pain in his eyes but I couldn't let myself be fooled. I said it once before and I’ll say it again. I have no interest in being played with by more than one person.”Elena please,””I SAID LEAVE!””Please just hear me out!” He begged as he stepped closer. I got up from the bed and walked further away from him.Pazzi sighed and took a seat on the foot of the bed where I had previously sat.

    I was looking at Ashton and he at me. Our eyes were locked to one another. All sounds were closed out and I barely remembered that Pazzi was present.I controlled my breathing and stayed calm. I couldn't let him know that I lied.Ashtons gaze intensified as he took a few steps towards me.He was standing inches away and he was searching my eyes for answers.”You’re lying.” He said.My breath got stuck in my throat and I gulped hard.”I’m not lying Ashton.” I said and lifted my head.”Promise me. Promise me that you didn't know.” He whispered.

    My heart was speeding and my palms were sweaty as I power walked on the gravel, away from the mansion. I made it to the gate and went around it, taking the back-way so to not be seen.I pulled my sweater around me tightly, protecting my skin from the chilly breeze.When I made it far enough so that I could breathe, I turned around and looked at the house I had just escaped from. It was huge, a mansion that showcased power and wealth. Every window was lit up with lamps and the stone staircase leading up to the door was massive.I recognized the house from somewhere but couldn't put my finger on exactly where I had seen it.I made it to the main road and walked alongside it for as long as I could. I didn't know where I was ,let alone the

    I don’t know for how long I had been sitting on the damp grass. My body was freezing, my fingers were stale and I could barely feel my feet. But I refused to move.I almost forgot them, I nearly forgot the anniversary of their death and for that, I could never forgive myself. I would sit here until I felt satisfied and until I know that they have felt my presence.I was letting the tears run down, freezing as they fell leaving patches on my skin along the way.When suddenly I heard a car roll up, I looked towards the gates and saw how a black SUV turned its lights off and someone stepped out.I guess I shouldn't be too surprised about others being here so late at night.I turned my attention back on my parents lying in front of me and didn't notice how some

    Work hadn't been anything different today than what it usually was. It was the same paperwork, meeting schedules, coffee runs, and phone calls as always. Yet somehow everything felt as if it had changed.The office, the building, the people, the walls and even the air felt different. It felt suffocating like I couldn't breathe properly.I looked at the clock and saw that the day was almost over. Relief washed over me at the thought of leaving this place and getting some fresh air. Until I remebered how I was supposed to meet Ashton down in the garage at most fifteen minutes after my shift, and the relief was gone. Pazzi would be standing by the elevator to make sure I did as I was told.I groaned in frustration as I closed the computer.I threw my bag over my shoulder and was about to head out when Anna

    I couldn't comprehend what was going on. Ashton was towering over me as I sat leaned back on the couch. Pushing myself as far back as I could. His gaze was burning into me, and at the same igniting flames on my skin. His eyes were both undressing me and trying to kill me at the same time.The intensity made me want to look away, to lower my head and disappear from under him. But I knew I couldn’t, I knew that there was no way out for me now.I needed to tell him the truth. Only then did I have a chance of getting out of here, however slim, it was still a chance I needed to take.”Are you going to sit?” I asked him, my voice trembling as I spoke.”No.” One word. One word that sent shivers done my shive and made me gulp.

    ~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.
