All Chapters of ROSES OVER DAFFODILS : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I don't know how I am supposed to act at a time like this. Seated to my right is my loving father Declan Armstrong while to my left sits my ex. The ex I also happen to still be madly in love with and her new boyfriend. Gracious!I don't know how I have managed to smile throughout the entire conversation with them even though I know deep down I would rather be anywhere but here.For the last five minutes, Henley, the girl I fell deeply in love with two years ago also my ex now has been smiling to something lover boy on her side keeps whispering in her ear. I on the other hand have had two glasses of champagne and tried as much as possible to look anywhere but them which has proven to be the hardest thing.Just a few months back, I was where the douche is sitting. It hurts so much how she has moved on so fast. I can't deny the feelings I still have for Henley. I don't actually believe there is a day I have been over her since she left even when I convinced myself I had. Now that I see he

I reach her house at exactly seven. Punctuality is one of my best virtues. The door flies open as soon as I knock at the door. The sight that meets my eyes is drool worthy. I stop and stare for a moment not caring to be hideous. Can Della be any more sexy?Suddenly all thoughts in my head have no plan of going to any opera but getting her back in, pin her against the door and get her out of the sexy red dress."How do I look?" she gives me a three sixty by spinning around. I swallow hard when my eyes find her plump ass in the dress. Oh dear Lord. I am a fully grown man, I should be able to control my libido."A..amazing, astonishing, sexy...""Okay prince charming. I appreciate the compliments. How about we hit the road before it is late?" she winks before walking towards my car. Her sexy cat walk has me on a leash and all I am left to do is follow. I didn't know how sexy dentists can be but Della has shown me.I open her door and rush to take my seat behind the wheel. I smile at her

I have thought about buying a dog for a while but I don't know if I would manage taking care of it with my busy schedule. I would want to come back from work to something or someone. Now that I live alone, the house feels so empty sometimes.I take off my coat and tie unbuttoning a few buttons before my phone rings. I reach for it from my pockets not caring to check the caller ID."Crescent." The quivering voice of Henley catches my attention immediately."Hen..Henley, are you alright?" I ask."No." The answer makes my heart constrict."What happened? Did he hurt you? Where are you?" I ask incoherently."We had an argument with Brad." she starts. I feel my chest heave with anger. I knew fucking Chad was up to no good."Did he lay hands on you because I swear...""No." she cuts me short."What happened Henley?" I quip impatiently. If he laid hands on her, I am going to kill him."I had this pregnant scare today. When I told him, he lashed out. We had a heated argument and then he drove

Dinner with my family has always been a drama show. I have a feeling tonight is not going to be any different. With a mother so loving, kind and helpful who always scolds you for the smallest things like tasting the salad before the steak, a father who needs control of your life twenty four seven and a brother who is hell bent on making your life hell. A mixture of such characters is destined to end in a shit show.I have been texting away on my phone for an hour now outside at the balcony. The reason I came out here was to get some oxygen and just be alone except Aaron, my elder brother doesn't understand the theory of personal space. "A little birdie told me you got yourself a hiding place at the balcony." I don't turn to confirm anything. I already know he wants to make me mad."Are you texting a girl? Whoa, let me..." I duck my phone away from his grabby hands. I turn to scowl at him."What? I thought you wanted your little girlfriend back." Aaron mocks. He wants me to give him th

Last night was the best night I have had in a while. When I open my eyes, I come face to face with a sleeping Della. I could wake up to the sight of her and not get tired. I take in her sleeping form caressing her with my eyes shamelessly. Her untamed hair looks flawless as it falls down her face. I always knew she is a good looking woman but watching her like this so peaceful, she is so magnificent. I bring my hand to sweep away the locks out of her face waking her up in the process."Good morning." I mutter. I find her half lidded eyes fascinated by how pretty her blue eyes look. I could stare in them for as long as I can."Have you been watching at me? That's creepy Crescent." she smirks half asleep."What time is it anyways?" she asks."Noon. It is late for all I care." I reply."We need to get out of bed." Della says sitting up. I lay back on the bed watching her adjust to get out of the covers."Don't you have work, things to do today?" she asks."No. You?" I ask."I was plannin
