Isabella's POV''Do not say those words to me again,'' I whispered, and Manny looked at me confused.'' Isabella why? why shouldn't I tell you that I love you?'' Manny asked.'' Because you can not love me,'' I let out as my eyes trailed to the floor.'' Isabella, why is that? Remember we do not choose who we love,'' Manny asked.'' You can not love someone like me, Manny, when all this is all over, I will leave this place and I don't know if this love you have for me will survive the outside world,'' I answered, but I knew that was not the real reason.'' Isabella, look at me,'' he said as he lifted my head to look at him.'' I do not care, I love you and that is all that matters, and when all this is over we will figure it out okay,'' Manny said.'' But what if,'' I wanted to protest but Manny stopped.''As I said before, you don't have to say those words back to me right now, I will wait for as long as it takes because you are worth it. And this love I have for you is big enough fo

Isabella's POV''I am sure it will all work itself out,'' Mia said, and I smiled.'' I hope so because it feels like my world is currently taking a 360 turn,'' I let out, and Mia rolled her eyes.'' How can you say that when your life is just like those we see in the movies, it is so exciting, you know,'' Mia said, and I shook my head.''Nothing is exciting about my life right now; it is filled with constant fear and uncertainty,'' I said.'' But, anyways, why don't we go in? I feel like my bed is calling me right now, thanks to the alcohol,'' I said, and Mia smiled as we both got out of the car, making our way inside.'' What about work? Wouldn't Dan be mad that you didn't show up? I know how he can be,'' I asked.'' Don't worry about it, because when I mentioned my absence had to do with the Draco, Dan was as quiet as a church rat,'' Mia answered, and I smiled.We got into the house, and it was so dark and quiet, so we slowly made our way upstairs, but then I heard Xander's voice wh

Xander's POV When she said those 3 words to me, I didn't know what to do or what to believe.''Was she saying the truth, does she love me?'' I asked myself because even though she had finally said those words that I had always wanted to hear from her, I still had this hint of doubt in my heart. Because deep down I never really thought someone so pure and innocent could love someone like me.'' There I have said, is that not what you want to hear, Xander? I love you. I still don't know how it happened, but I fell helplessly in love with you,'' she said, and there it was, the confirmation I had been looking for in her eyes.She wasn't saying this because she thought this was what I wanted to hear, she was saying this because that is what she truly felt.'' Xander this.....'' Bella wanted to say, but before she could say another word, I grabbed her, pulling her to myself as I claimed her lips, kissing her so fervently, wanting to possess every inch of her for myself.We kissed, drowning

Isabella's POVI was frozen in shock and fear, as I looked at my spilt food on the floor and then back into the space where Ruby stood. Her dreadful words kept running over and over in my mind, as I didn't know what to think or what to do.'' Next time I will not miss,'' Those words of hers were the ones that stood out in my mind, as I thought to myself what she meant by that.Deep in thought, I didn't know how long I had stood there, but soon I heard Mary and Mia's voices calling out to me.'' Isa, are you okay, what happened?'' Mia asked, breaking me out of my thoughts.'' Yes Isabella, what is going on? Why are all these in front of you?'' Mary asked.'' Uhmmm, Hi Mary... Hi Mia,'' I let out nervously, but that was not what they wanted to hear as they continued to look at me waiting for answers.'' I tripped,'' I lied and Mary nodded but Mia looked at me, maybe knowing that there was more to it.'' Oh my dear, this is my fault. I know you were wondering why I didn't bring food for

Xander's POVI couldn't get any sleep at all after my encounter with Bella last night, as I kept on replaying in my head the part where she said she loved me because that was the only good part of last night.And, of course, her other words of rejection were the ones that give me sleepless nights.But I refused to give up on her now that I knew how she truly felt about me. I had always wanted her to love me, I had always wanted her to see me and now that she does, I was not going to let her confusion ruin that for us.She wants to be with me. It was so clear to see in her eyes, so now all I have to do is remind her of that.Since I couldn't sleep and the sun had already risen in the sky, I decided to get on with work.I had been absent for so long, so absent that I didn't even know how my business was doing and my cousin wasn't keeping me updated. But today all that will change because the Draco is back.I took a shower and got dressed. I was still in pain from my injury, but that did
