Alexia. The house was peacefully silent as Michael and I cuddled on my couch. I was happy to be in his arms after the whole baby drama had settled down and I was grateful that everybody got the message and left us to ourselves. All the fear that weighed me down just a few days ago was gone and despite the mild cramps and morning sickness that I felt because of the baby, I was okay. I hummed joyously as I snuggled into Michael's chest. I sat comfortably in between his legs and my back rested against his chest. Michael had his arms around my waist loosely as he leaned against the couch. We took our time catching up with each other in the peace of my apartment. I just wanted to make up for the time that we were apart and hopefully straighten out the edges that came with our disagreement. I didn't want things to get too complicated. "I love you, Michael," I said softly, breaking the silence that came as we almost dozed off in each other's arms. He chuckled softly. "I love you too, my

Alexia. Luis had finally come back from her bathroom break and she seemed more composed than she was before she left. The friendly and fun atmosphere was back as we took our time enjoying each other's company. The three of us talked about a few more things before an idea hit me. "What about a double date?" I blurted and my best friends looked at me in shock. "What!?" They both exclaimed. "I've always wanted to experience having a double date so, why don't you guys come along with Michael and I?" "And be third wheelers?" Luis asked as if that was the worst thing to ever do. "You guys don't bother to hide your affection for each other." "I never thought that the day would come when I'm just a side character," Tony said, looking beyond disappointed at what I just said. "You guys aren't understanding this, are you?" I asked, feeling a little frustrated that they were taking it the wrong way. Couldn't they see as much opportunity in this as I did? "Then what do you mean?" Luis asked

  Michael. I sighed as I looked at the computer screen in front of me. Just when I thought that the day would go slow, I received a large document that had to be read through and confirmed.  Having a slow day in the cooperate world wasn't a good thing. In fact, you'd be a discouraged if things were going so slow that progress was almost non-existent, but as much as I liked a good day of work, I just wanted to find time to talk with Alexia today. Today was a very special day and I couldn't wait for work hours to end. Actually, we were leaving early because we had to go to the hospital to check up on the baby and had a trip after that. I was excited and I didn't know what to expect but I was happy that we got to experience this. The door opened and I looked up from my work at Gabriel. He looked mildly angry and quickly walked to his desk before sitting down. Letting out a heavy sigh, he put his files on the table and turned on his comp

 Alexia.The morning sun's rays peeked into the room through the spaces in-between the curtains. It was a quiet morning and I sank deeper into Michael's arms as I enjoyed his warmth.We were in my old bedroom and my parents had tidied it up quite nicely that you couldn't tell that it wasn't used for the past six years. They also made my room more mature to match up with my current age but didn't do the same with the bed so, Michael and I had to squeeze in.I didn't mind it much because I couldn't pass up an opportunity to cuddle with Michael but then, it wasn't the most comfortable position to maintain over a long period of time. I wondered how Michael felt about this since his feet were over the edge."I'm tired," I groaned into his chest.The time we spent with my parents last night didn't go as well as I expected, especially between Michael and Dad. I was worried and thought of how I could make Dad's heart soften for him but after d

Michael. I tried to calm my racing heart as I tapped my foot impatiently against the metal floor of the elevator. Couldn't this thing go any faster? Just as I was about to leave the office after working overtime, I received a call from Alexia. Picking it up, it was actually Luis who called and she said that somebody had broken into, and trashed, Alexia's apartment. I was baffled. Alexia's apartment had good security so, how could this be? I sighed as I looked at the numbers nearing Alexia's floor and prayed to the greater being above that she was okay. The bell of the elevator made my heart jump and I pushed past the sliding doors before they could fully open. I felt more anxious at the sight of two police officers standing outside the apartment. Some of the neighbours stood in front of their doors as they looked at the scene in worry and curiousity. I quickly spotted Luis because the red dress that she wore stood out from the colours ahead of me. She held Alexia's hands while she
