"I can't believe he could do that!" Tessa exclaims while she paces back and forth in front of my bed. "He totally played you, just wait until I tell Charlie. We'll both take turns beating the shit out of him!"
"Don't tell Charlie," I tell her, "anybody for that matter. This is just going to be between Leon and I, you and Kay will both know though."
"Come on Bi!" Tessa exclaims and stops pacing, "Sometimes you just need your friends help."
"I know that, believe me," I tell her and set my pillow to the side, "this is just one of those things that is never going to really change. I just need to get over it and move on."
"What he did was so not cool!" Tessa argues, emphasizes he, "I could so beat his il coglione!"
"You just yelled in Italian Tess," I tell her and she takes a deep breath.
"Sorry I just need to get the frustration out," she replies, "you should too. More than me. I'm going to punch hi
After who knows how many hours I finally wake up and I feel Leon tighten his arm around my waist. "Are you up Leo?" I ask and he grunts in response before he nuzzles his face into my neck. I smile and flip over to face him, "come on sleepy head." "I don't want to get up," he complains and kisses the top of my head. I roll my eyes before I look around to find the clock. It's already three in the morning! We have work in less than four hours. "We have work in a few hours, lets do something to pass the time," I tell him, trying to sit up. "I have a few ideas," he smirks, forcing me onto my back. "Sorry Leo, we aren't," I smirk back and run my hand through his curls. He frowns slightly and wraps his arms around my waist again. Without expecting it, he flops down on top of me, making me lose my breath. He lays there for a few minutes until I smack his head. "Bloody hell," he mutters and sits up slightly.
"Miss Harrison," one of the designers says at my door. I look up at her, setting down my pen, "here are the designs, your mother wants you to get them to her." "Alright," I say and take the folder, "thank you Miss Darty." She nods her head before she leaves my office. My mom made sure to leave all the papers and contracts for me to read and sign. She probably just sat in my chair and ordered people around when I wasn't here. "Isabelle," I call through the intercom. "Yes ma'am?" She replies and I look at my notes on my desk. "Did you call me before Miss Darty came in?" I ask her, flipping to the next page of the contract. "Um yes ma'am," she replies, "Mr. Bailey is here, he says he's taking you out to lunch." "Leon?" I asked confused and she mumbles something. "Yes ma'am," she replies, "um excuse me sir you can't-" My door to my office opens and I roll my eyes, "it's fine Isabelle, you c
Day Before the Wedding -->The girls and I are going out tonight for my bachelorette party. The guys are going out for Leon's bachelor party and we both made out friends promise to not go to The Spiral. Right now the girls are getting me ready, and I'm not sitting in front of my mirror so I can't see anything they are doing. Everyone is ready and they all look amazing. Tessa needs to sign with a modeling agency quick! She is so freaking gorgeous, especially in her dress tonight. It was a plain black dress that went mid thigh, only had one sleeve on the left, right at her ribs on her right side, and her left shoulder was open.So should Kay! She is wearing a baby blue halter dress. The top is basically a tube tope, the skirt goes to her knees but has a slit up her right leg to mid thigh, she also has a matching blazer that is laying on my bed.Andrea had a very cute and simple dress. It was a light red, lace sleeves, stopped at mid
"Sophie I can't look at it," I whisper and feel my eyes start to sting. What if this just pisses Leon off after we just got on good terms? What if I'm not ready? How do I even take care of a baby? I'm so not ready for this. This is just all way too much. "Sophie you've been really quiet." "You're-" Sophie starts and tries to smile, "you're going to be a mom." I freeze. My eyes burn and tears streak down my cheeks. I lean against the wall and slowly slide down until I'm sitting on the floor. I put my hand on my stomach and the other over my mouth as I cry silently. Sophie come over to sit by me and wraps her arm around me. "It's going to be okay Bi," she coos, "I'll always be here if you need advise. Plus you're Mom and Andrea can help you. She is going to have one in a couple months. I bet Leon will be excited." "No he won't," I cry out and lean my head back, "we just got on good terms Soph, how am I supposed to make him accept a child?" "Yo
"I do," I say as I look at Leon. He looks amazing in his grey tux with his gold tie. It matches perfectly with out colors and the guys match the girls greatly. As I was walking down with my dad Leon's mouth was parted slightly and I saw Grayson nudge his shoulder with a smirk. I looked down as my face turned red and my dad smiled at me for reassurance. "With great honor I pronounce you husband and wife," the priest smiles at the two of us, "you may now kiss the bride." Leon cups my cheek and brings my face to his. His lips press softly against mine and I melt in the kiss it wasn't too long but it was sweet and passionate. It almost felt like a real wedding kiss. We pull apart and everybody starts cheering and clapping, "the new Mr. and Mrs. Leon Bailey!" Leon takes my hand in his, Kay hands me my bouquet too, and we walk down the aisle smiling at the guest that came to celebrate. "Photo time!" Kay exclaims as we walk out do the church. She lets go of Gray
Believe it or not Leon got me an appointment the next day. He was rushing around the house forgetting everything, he was about to leave with his jeans in buttoned with a belt dangling. Oh don't forget he still had toothpaste around his mouth and an empty cup of coffee. I've had to calm him down and get him situated before I let him in the car. "Leo calm," I giggle as his fingers tap hard against the wheel. He takes a deep breath and glances over at me, "everything will be fine. You are going to need to breath." "I'm nervous," he admits with a slight chuckle, "this is my, our, first child. We are seeing it for the first time." "Just don't freak out when you get there," I joke as he takes my hand in his, "all the expecting moms will be grateful that you aren't the father of their child if you go crazy." "Please," Leon scoffs, "everybody would die to have me as the father of their child." "Sure," I chuckle, "if it he
"Come on Leon! We need to leave now!" I yell at him as I hold my stomach at the door. He is running around the house making sure he has everything we need, not caring that we needed to leave for the hospital ten minutes ago, "I'm going to drive myself if you aren't at this door in five seconds!" I hear footsteps and a panting Leon reveals from around the corner. "Okay we can go now," He breaths out and practically drags me to the car. I almost fall flat on my face but I regain my footing. I get into the car and he throws the bag into the back seat, "why is this so stressful?" "Because it's a baby," I tell him with a giggle. He glares at me as he reverses out of the garage. "It's not even ours. It's your brother's." "But we have to get there to watch Luca because my parents are in Italy right now and Andrea's don't live in New York," Leon says in a fast pace as he turns down the road. "Yes, which is exactly why you shouldn't hav
"Leo," I giggle as he drags me up onto the stage in our back yard. There are two white smoke bombs on the table and two lighters next to it. That's right we found out we were having twins when I was nearly three months. It's still hard to wrap my head around. "Calm down," I say, "not everyone is ready. We still need to announce it." "They are right there Ana!" He smiles as he points to the smoke bombs. "Go to the mic and tell everybody we are going to announce it," I give in, letting go of his hand. He quickly goes to the mic and gets everyone's attention. "Hey everyone," he says into the mic, "we are going to reveal the genders now." Everyone claps as he comes back to the table. "Are you ready?" He asks me and I nod my head. We both light the lighters and put them to the wick of the smoke bombs. It reaches the bottom of the wick after a couple seconds and smoke starts to come out of them. "Boys!" I squeal as I hug Leon. He hug
"Hey Nara," he mumbles with a boyish grin, one hand on the nape of his neck and the other in his leather jacket pocket. He was always up for riding his motorcycle, said the leather jackets were just a plus. "Will," I practically growl, "Why the hell are you here?" "I need to talk to you," he says and I go to shut the door. He stops it with his hand that was previously on his neck, "Please Nara. Just hear what I have to say." "Why should I do that?" I snap, "you never did for me." "I am going to apologize for everything Nara," he replies, "please just give me a chance." "You know I don't believe in second chances," I mutter, "it leads to nothing but trouble." "Believe me, I know," he says, "but I'm not asking you to take me back. Just to hear me out." "I have a party to get ready for," I mumble and walk away, starting my way to my room. I hear the door shut, hoping he left but my
"Nara I need help in the kitchen!" Mom exclaims and I get off of the couch. Mom and Dad decided they wanted to have a graduation party for me, saying they love how I got my business degree, I want to be an interior designer. Uncle Blake said that I can partner with his company once I get a solid start. I'm excited, Georgie is going to be working with me. She said she doesn't think she could handle the responsibility of owning a whole business but it willing to be a worker. I of course agreed, who wouldn't want their best friend working with them? "I thought I told you I didn't want a cake," I say as I walk into the kitchen. My mom has her hair tied back into a short ponytail and a black apron over her clothes. She has flour handprints all over it from patting her hands clean, "you do realize the party is in an hour right? You still need to get ready." "It's almost one already?" Mom asks shocked as she sets the spoon in the bowl, "shoot! Can you please fin
"I now introduce you all to the newlyweds, Mr. and Mrs. Ryan Patten!" The priest announces and everyone cheers. I give Selena back her bouquet and she happily walks down the aisle with her husband. I follow behind her with Zeke, his best man. "I feel bad for you Nara," Zeke jokes as we continue to walk, "Ryan is officially your brother now." "I know," I fake groan, "my life get worse by the day." "Aunt Nara! Aunt Nara!" A squeal comes from behind us. I glance back to see my nephew, Drake. He's two and is the cutest little boy ever. He has his mom's fiery red hair and his dad's brown eyes. "Where's your Dad Drake?" I ask as he walks with us down the aisle. "Back der," he says and points behind us, "he is loud." "Believe me I know," I chuckle and we are at the end of the aisle. "I'm sorry Nara," Cara apologizes as she picks up her son, "he's been very energetic today." "It's
Three weeks later "Calm her curls Mom," I say as Ellie sits in front of my vanity. Mom grabs a bottle and starts to work on Ellie's hair. I go to my bathroom and start on my makeup. I already did my hair while Mom did Ellie's makeup. Ellie's Mom died when she was eight so she never really had a mother figure in her house, but whenever she came here my mom would treat Ellie as one of her own. "Your dresses are laid out in the guest room," Mom tells us as she leaves my room. I grab my phone and realize that we have to leave in ten minutes. I drag Ellie to the guest room and throw her dress at her. I slip on my dress and Ellie does as well. I slip on a pair of white platform heels and Ellie puts on a pair of silver pumps. Mom got each of us a new clutch, mine a dull red and Ellie's is silver with navy accents. "They are here to pick you up!" Mom calls and that's our cue to go downstairs. At the door my dad is talking wit
"Hows this dress?" Ellie asks as she twirls out of the changing room. I roll my eyes and and she raises her eyebrows waiting for a response. "I told you," I sigh, "you are trying way to hard, just find something you like. Or you can have my mom make you one." "I said I'm not having her make me one if I can't pay for it," she replies and pulls the end of the dress down, "I guess this dress is a little short." "You guess right," I reply, "now change back. We are going somewhere else." She knows not to question me because o won't give it. She heads back in and changes into her clothes, leaving the dress in the changing room. We go out to my car and I drive off. Ellie switches the radio station and Halo by Beyoncé comes on. We both smile before we start to scream the lyrics. I turn down the busy city street and wait through traffic, which sucks. "Selena I said no," Ellie groans as I pull in front of my mom's bu
"She was just gone?" Austin says and I nod, "ooh man. That sucks hard." A quick image flashes through my mind causing my to smirk but it quickly falls. "Believe me it does," I groan and lean back in my chair. "Mr. Bailey, I expect you to be quiet while I'm teaching," Professor Ulrik says. "Sorry Professor," I say and continue to draw circles on my notebook. I turn back to Austin and whisper, "girls are being annoying as fuck to me lately." "I know, first Jenna now Cara," he replies and glare at him, "sorry bro but she was like your first serious girlfriend." "Cause I thought she wasn't a hoe," I scoff, "looks can be deceiving, so can words." "That's why I'm not settling down yet," he smirks, "I'm finding out which girls are hoes are not. Perfect plan." "All while you are being a hoe," I chuckle but cover it with a cough as our Professor looks up. "That's it for class
This chapter gets very mature~~~ "Slow the fuck down," Austin says as he hits my head. "Shut the fuck up Austin," I groan and down another shot, tequila just like my mom. "Miles, man the fuck up," Austin practically demands as he forces me to stand. "You two," Fiona says sternly, "stop saying 'fuck' and come dance with me." Austin and Fiona are my two closest friends. I've known Austin since third grade and we met Fiona in high school. We've been pretty close since, we are even at the same college, NYU. I thought senior year was going to be pretty laid back but no, it's fucking April and I'm so fucked up in my head. I can't believe I'm letting this get to me. "Forget about her tonight Miles," Fiona smiles as she wraps her arm around mine, "there is a pretty red head over there." "Can't argue with that," I mutter as I glance at the red head who is swinging her hips to th
"Xavier! Stop running!" I yell as I chase after my son. He turned two last week and thinks he's in charge of everything now. He gets to tell Jaden and I when his bedtime is and when he thinks he should take a bath. He's also starting to say no to the clothes we try to change him into to. "Not hungry Daddy!" He squeals as he runs around the couch. "It's dinnertime bud," I tell him, "you don't want mommy upset because you won't eat her food." He stops running and looks at the doorway to the dining room. He glances at me before he sprints to the table and climbs up on to his booster seat. I roll my eyes as he smiles at his mom, who walks in with a bowl of spaghetti. "Alec, can you get the parmesan?" She asks as she sets the bowl on the table. I walk past her, kissing her cheek, before I get into the kitchen. I bring it back out and she smiles. "Thank you. Now sit so we can eat." I sit in my seat and take a plate for myself. After
Alec's POV: The last time I went to a club was six months ago. My friends try to drag me to every party they hear about but I stay at my place. Six months ago I met a girl at this club. Jaden Driggs. She was the most gorgeous girl I've ever seen. Long wavy light brown hair, bright green eyes, the greatest smile I've ever seen. I can't believe that I met her at a club. She looks like a girl who would never go out. Anyway, I can't stop thinking about her and it's fucking up my head. It isn't helping because finals are soon then I'm graduating college, then I'm getting ready to take over dad's business. Octavian is back, which helps. He's back for a whole year now, and it can be extended to two. Aly and him are getting married in a few weeks, June second. I know Octavian is ecstatic, especially since Aly made this choice. He figured they wouldn't get married until we were almost thirty, but here he is at twenty-two getting married.
