I was at my office reviewing the sketches that were made by our graphic designers for the new game that we were preparing to launch. Usually, I just review the work and show the green light to proceed with the project. But this time I got involved in the process as I am a graphic designer myself and created a character for the game but of course, I had a lot of help from the team since it has been so long.

Now that everything was set, I was revising the final result to proceed further when my phone rang showing Vian’s name on it.

My lips curved upwards into a smile unknowingly as soon as I saw his name. It has been a week since they left for LA. Vian and Jay, both of them have been texting me now and then but we didn’t really talk much about anything since they were so busy.

“Hello stranger,” I greeted him picking up the call in joy.

“Hello to you too sweetheart. You sound cheery.” He replied reciprocating the glee. I could feel the butterflies on my

    “Hi, my name is Elena and you are Ava, right?” The girl standing outside my door introduced herself and the fact that she already knew me surprised me. She held out her hand for a shake, and I could see that she was visibly uneasy about something. She looked beautiful with her auburn hair and brown eyes. She was almost my height and wore a dress with a floral pattern. Her legs on the floor were constantly moving, showing that she was indeed anxious “Uh… yeah but sorry do I know you?” I asked her politely, looking confused. I was sure that I had never met her before. “No, you don’t. I am sorry. I am a friend of Jay.” She said. “Oh, wow. Please come on in.” I invited her in and offered her something to drink from the mini-fridge that was in the hotel room. For a while, the room fell into silence. I wasn’t sure what to say to a stranger because I didn’t know why she came to my room but I gave her some time to make up her mind

  • You are my FLAME   Revelations.

    We both came back to the hotel riding a taxi. The ride was quiet, and I didn’t dare to say anything to him but I wanted to make him understand somehow that it was just a friendly visit. As soon as we arrived at the hotel, paying the driver, Vian just strode towards his room without even glancing at me. It was almost dawn and the first light started to shade the world blue. Vian entered his room without closing the door behind him, thankfully. I guess he was expecting me to follow him inside. He removed his t-shirt in one swift movement showing his toned body and then he went to the bathroom kicking off his jeans, wearing his shorts. I turned around a bit, not to be indecent, watching him changing clothes but I just couldn’t help it. When he came out, he went to the bed and lied down pulling up the duvet over him like I wasn’t even standing there. I stood there for several minutes just staring at him, and my mind thought it was the right time to comment how ho

  • You are my FLAME   Breeze and cloud.

    Three more weeks ran past me so quickly. Everything I did or thought is like a blurry image if I try to remember it. Vian hasn’t talked to me since our fight that night even after I attempted to call him numerous times. I was ready to apologize, and I understood why he was angry but he was just so stubborn. I didn’t talk to Ryan either, but that was more of my choice. I was surprised that night by his confession, and I left the room without saying anything because I had none. I just couldn’t say anything, so I left his home early morning by myself without saying goodbye. It all felt really familiar with everything that happened in the past although everything was different in a way. D5 was coming back to New York that day. I was thinking about going to the airport to receive them although I knew it was impossible with all the fans waiting for them at the entrance. They will be all over the social media, and

  • You are my FLAME   What are we?

    I loved Vian with all of my heart. I knew it the moment I saw him. I used to think that his soul called for me, making me move in with my grandma so that I could be with him. It might sound a little cheesy but I thought it was poetic. Even after everything we have been through, I never once doubted that he was not the one for me. But foolishly, I tried to deny it, tried to forget it and I even tried to run away from it but every time I did something to be away from him it only brought me a step closer to him. Every time I think that we can never get closer than that, fate had a surprise for me. So when I saw a man with a gun pointing the muzzle at Vian. I felt that my heart might stop at any moment. My brain was firing with all kinds of ideas… all kinds of possibilities but particularly one of them plastered in my mind making me lose my sanity. It was just a thought. ‘What if that man pulled the trigger?’ ‘What if Vian got hurt?’ ‘What if… what if he was dead

  • You are my FLAME   Wrong timing.

    Finally! Vian and I are all set to depart to the old town the next day to meet my grandma. She was so excited when I told her that I was bringing Vian with me although she felt bad that Jay couldn't join us. I asked Jay to join us as well thinking that it might be a good idea to finally reveal what was going on between me and Vian but he refused, giving me some excuse. It was weird but I didn't force him.Time could have never moved slower than it did on those two weeks. It felt like an eternity and I have never been so eager to be done with the day.During those two weeks, things weren't that good between Vian and me. He kept himself too busy with his album works and on top of that, the shoot for our film had started a couple of days after he came back to New York. I was busy with the launch work of our new game and t

    “Dad, what’s wrong?” “You need to get to London immediately, Ava. I will talk to Richard so don’t worry about your schedule.” “Okay. But tell me what’s going on.” I asked him. I was already packing my things that were spread out on my caravan in my bag. “I have to go,” I whispered to Vian who was watching me with concern and confusion while I was on my phone with my Dad. He told me that there was a fire last night in our company building in London. An entire floor was completely burned, and a guard who tried to stop the fire after calling the fire service was injured. “I don’t know how we are going to manage this.” I could tell that he was very worried. “I need to meet up with the board members, and I don’t think Damon could handle this alone. So I want you there to deal with this. Let me know the situation when you get there. I asked Smith to report to you.” he told me. “Okay, dad. Don’t worry I will take care of it.” I cut the call a

  • You are my FLAME   Sacrifice.

    “I missed you,” he whispered. Before I do anything bad, losing my control, he let me go and brought me back to reality from my trance state. He then walked to my bed with a smirk as if he knew how I felt. He swiftly removed his t-shirt and threw himself on my bed as he used to do before annoyingly. Thankfully hotel beds are stronger than they look. “I missed you. So I took a flight as soon as I thought so. I landed in the evening and booked a room here. I asked Lydia about your schedule, and she told me that you just came back from the office. So I didn’t want to disturb you. I was planning to come to meet you in the morning, but I just couldn’t help it so I called you to just say good night.” he said making himself comfortable on my bed on one side, crossing his hands behind his head. I was so happy that he came to London just because he missed me but the perfectly cut muscles on his half-naked body distracted me as he flexed his arms. “So you were s

  • You are my FLAME   Engagement party.

    ‘Remember Ava, you promised your mom that you would do anything to make your dad and brother happy.” My mind reminded me of the umpteenth time when I was on my way to the party. I also remembered how I lost my mother being so selfish. When she was suffering from her illness and struggling to keep me happy, I was ignorant and only thought about myself. That was the time when I cared only about my feelings and no one else. I was in pain, and I didn’t think that anyone could understand meanwhile my mom was struggling with cancer and the fear of death. So I decided to think about someone else for the first time. I decided to sacrifice my happiness for Willie, and I knew he was worth it. It’s not like the world would stop revolving when you don’t get to live with the love of your life. You get hurt, you struggle, you heal and you move on, that’s life’s and I was ready to accept it. I knew Vian would be hurt too, but it’s not like he cannot live without me. He alre

    I blinked a few times to adjust my vision and then I screamed noticing the person who helped me.“Jay!” I hugged him tightly in excitement without believing my eyes. I was relieved that at least Jay was there beside me even though my dad and brother couldn’t make it.“Do you think we would let you get married without dad walking you to the aisle?” I looked around hearing Damon behind me. Willie, Damon, and Dev walked towards me in their black suits and I couldn’t help but get overwhelmed watching them. Since the moment they have taken off the blindfold, it all felt like a dream.“I thought you guys aren’t gonna be there.” I wept like a crazy girl hugging my dad and my brother in elation. Weirdly, even when I was happy beyond words tears kept rolling down my cheeks.“Baby girl, you haven’t said anything about my masterpiece,” Dev said running his hands over my dress. I was surprised an

  • You are my FLAME   You are my Flame.

    I was taking an evening walk with Vian towards our high school in the old town. The sun shone brightly on the western sky just before setting like it was ready to give the stage to the moon and the stars. We were walking in silence immersed in our thoughts.A day before, Vian suddenly barged into my office with Damon and took me with him hauling me away from my office without saying anything about where he was taking me and leaving Damon in charge of the company like he owned it.I was busy for the past two weeks, and I couldn’t even properly text Vian on those days. I was trying to finish a deal with a Chinese company that was interested in investing in our company. If I get that deal successfully then, I needn’t worry about paying Ryan’s dad’s debt in a year. With Vian and Jay’s help, I could pay him off within 6 months.I tried my best to refuse Vian and Jay’s help but they somehow convinced me. Jay told me that he was payi

  • You are my FLAME   Sorry.

    “Seriously? You are still wearing that?” Vian questioned with a very upset look in his eyes. “I… I forgot about it.” I said feeling guilty and defenseless. “You forgot about it?” he asked me in a mocking tone. “It’s YOUR finger and YOU are wearing it.” He pressed the words pointing at my hand. “How could you forget something like that and it’s been two days,” Vian said with a menacing look. He was right, and I have nothing to say to that but I wasn’t going to stand there looking all guilty and go down without an argument. “Well, you were with me on those two days, why didn’t you say anything about it? You must have seen it at least once. You should have told me something before proposing to me.” I yelled back. It was the most absurd thing that came out of my mouth. “Oh, I am sorry I didn’t notice the ring in your finger because my concentration was elsewhere in your body,” he growled back without thinking. It took him a second to realize what

    Two days. Vian and I ignored this world for two days without giving a fuck about anything and lived off only eating takeouts with little sleep and lots of sex. We didn’t pick up any of the calls we received on our phones. In fact, we forgot where we kept them. Sometimes in the middle of the night or in the early morning and sometimes, at late noon we hear them ringing but completely ignored it just for the fun of it.I used to worry about others than myself usually. If it was some other time I would have thought about how Willie and Damon would be worried without hearing from me for two days and on top of that I didn’t even tell them where I was going. To be honest I didn’t know where I was going when I walked out of my house.But the whole world faded away when I was with Vian those two days. I was madly, irrevocably in love

    I am not sure if I did justice to Vian and Ava's love in this chapter but I do hope you guys enjoy reading it............................................................................“You did. But… You… My name’s written there… striking Ryan’s name… is this what I think it is?” he asked me.“Yes,” I said firmly. I was nervous about what he would say after everything happened.“But… But why? Last night you said… you said…” he tried to say something, but he couldn’t as he was hit with lots of emotions remembering last night’s events.“I am sorry,” I said as my voice croaked remembering the night… remembering how I hurt him with my words.“Why? What happened? What’s changed?” he bombarded me with questions as he was surprised by my change of heart suddenly.“I know wh

    “Elena!” I was hit with surprise and confusion at the same time.“Your dad let me in.” She said with an awkward smile as she walked in and took a seat beside me on the bed.“I am really surprised to see you here,” I said hoping that she would understand the real meaning of my question. I wanted to know why she came to meet me.But she remained silent thinking about something, fidgeting her fingers. “Do you want anything to drink or something?” I asked her but she politely refused.“I heard you got engaged. Congratulations!” she said with a small smile. It didn’t feel like she was actually wishing me, though.“Thank you.” I said smi

    Darkness.That was the only thing I could think of when I came to my senses. I have been awake since an hour ago or so, but I stayed in my bed without opening my eyes.Darkness. Sometimes it’s not just something that you only see when you close your eyes or in other words that you can’t see anything in the absence of light but you could also feel it when there is no light in your life.I kept my eyes closed to see the darkness clearly so that I didn’t have to feel it. It awaits just behind the veil of my closed eyelids to engulf me as a whole.I will have to open my eyes anytime soon and let it swallow me but I prolonged the inevitable just by staying in bed with my eyes closed, feeling content as my mind made up an illusion of peace.

  • You are my FLAME   Vian.

    Vian’s journal. Dear diary, I am gonna tell you a story about a stupid boy who sacrificed his love twice for his friends. To him, they both mean the world, and he would do anything for them even if it meant hurting himself. I was just a cheeky, naïve little boy when Jay and Ava came into my life. They both loved me regardless of who I was and cared for me like I am their family. In life, nothing can be quite precious in this world as your ideas and experiences to share with someone. Nothing can be more magnanimous than being an inspiration to someone. On that note, I know I must always be grateful to Jay who inspired me with his dreams and ambitions when I was just wandering around in life, and Ava who made me run towards my dreams. To someone who doesn’t know who his mother was and has a father who travels a lot rather spending time with his son, Jay and Ava were the dad and mom to me. Over the years, Jay bec

  • You are my FLAME   Jay.

    Jay’s Journal. Dear diary, It’s so hard for me to see Vian and Ava like this. I cannot watch them being in pain, hurting each other. Everything was my fault. If only I hadn’t fallen in love… with her, with my Ava, I could have prevented years of pain for the three of us. Yes, I am in love with Ava, and I have been for quite a while. I don’t exactly remember when I started to grow feelings for her, but I remember the times when I enjoyed her company so much. I crack jokes just to watch her laugh and I tease and annoy her to see her cute pouts. I thought it was just friendship for a while but then I realized I didn’t want to lose her to someone when I lost my mom. She always took care of me and loved me more than my family. I’ve always enjoyed the way she treated me special than others… than Vian. I guess I was just too late to realize that. When we moved to London, I started noticing certain changes with Ava and also V
