All Chapters of Pulling Off The Impossible: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

There was simply not enough time for me to go through my closet. Today was Sunday and there had been two weddings back-to-back this weekend that I had to handle, being a manager of the event-management business that my dad owned. We started this business when I had to take a break from college due to being pregnant. At that time, I had free time on my hand and I always wanted to own an event-planning business so I’d informed my dad and borrowed money from him. Instead of lending me his money, he’d started a company and was about to hand it to me when I told him that I’d feel much better working as an employee while he kept the ownership. At least until one day when I had enough money to buy the company from him. As I stared at my reflection in the bathroom mirror of the gorgeous Metropolitan building, I counted to ten as it usually would give me a calming effect. The attire that I was currently wearing would not suitable for the reunion. Hell, it wasn't suitable for an event organiz

AUTUMN’S POV I SHOULD’VE KNOWN IT WAS A BAD IDEA TO COME HERE. Besides having to see Frazier showing off his young and attractive girlfriend around, I had to endure hearing people mentioning my name in whispers and talking about how I had gotten ‘knocked-up’ in my first year of college. Normal people would’ve thought this was old news, especially since my baby boy was five years old now but these people in this glamorous room seemed to think otherwise. I’d heard weird-ass stories ranging from how I’d cheated on Tyler with someone I met in the bar to me having a bad, unsafe one-night stand with a stranger to get Tyler’s attention. If only they knew the truth. If only they knew that it was far more complicated than that. I ignored them, as always. Never denying nor agreeing. Let their imagination go wild. After all, I didn’t owe any of them any explanation. If I thought that these were bad, something worse was coming on my way when my phone rang. I quickly opened my purse and dug dee

Autumn’s POV I MOVED MY HEAD, TRYING TO NESTLE AGAINST THE PILLOW. It wasn’t as soft and fluffy as it usually was. Actually, it was hard, rigid even. My eyelids felt like they were glued but I forced them to open and that was when I realized I wasn't on my bed. I was on the sofa of Lenox Hill Hospital’s waiting room and what I thought was my pillow was Frazier’s thighs. I grabbed the back of the sofa and pulled myself up into a sitting position. “Good morning.” He gave me a small smile as if it was perfectly normal for me to sleep on his lap and for him to greet me when I woke up in the morning. “I’ve bought a coffee and a croissant.” “I’ve eaten croissants last night,” my brain answered automatically, never failing to remember when it came to foods. “I know. Last night was raspberry, today it’s peach.” Frazier pulled out the croissant from the paperback and undid the wrapping. He handed it to me before reaching out for a tissue and the styrofoam cup. “Bon appétit!” “I need to go

I HEARD THE FRONT DOOR open and closed with a soft click and rushed to the living room to see Tyler walking in. He dropped his car keys carelessly on the mahogany side table and then moved towards me. “Hey,” I smiled. “How was it? Did you check out the lab? Did you like it?” Tyler came to New York not only for the reunion but he was looking for places that offered him an internship position before he graduated from Oxford. Two of the places were in New York. We always kept in touch through text messages and he had been telling me that he hoped one of the places was good so that he could move back to the United States, to New York, even if it was just for a year before he needed to complete his final year in Oxford. “Yeah.” He moved through the space between the two sofas until he stood in front of me. Our bodies were only a breath apart. So close that I had to look up to meet his eyes. Suddenly feeling uncomfortable, I turned around and started cleaning up Sev’s toys on the table.

AUTUMN I HAD NEVER SEEN FRAY CRY so when he did, I ended up crying with him. We were standing in the doorway, watching Sev sleeping so we ended up sobbing in silence, not wanting to wake him up. Frazier was the first to move, his arms snaked their way around my waist and I was being pulled into his body. I let my arms go up to his arms. His biceps turned hard beneath my touch and for a split second, I wanted to drop my hand thinking that perhaps this wasn’t a good idea to be up close and personal with Frazier Ronan. But then he slid his hand to the small of my back and put his mouth next to my ear and said, “I can’t tell you enough how sorry I am. I should’ve been there. I should’ve been fucking there with you. I’m such a bloody idiot.” For the last few years, I’d always been putting up my brave face. I’d always been wearing a mask, acting tough, and never cried. Now the dam was broken. I had one hand holding the back of his neck and the other tangled up in his dark blonde hair wh
