All Chapters of A gift From Las Vegas: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Samantha The ringing of the doorbell caught my attention as I folded the last of my clothes into my suitcase. " Sam, are you ready?" Elle's voice sounded in the hallway next to the bedroom a few moments later. " Almost," I crooned. She opened the door, rolling her eyes to find me wearing only panties and a bra and a towel wrapped around my hair. " You're not even dressed yet! That's typical," she sighed, "hurry up your little bit of pregnancy, or you won't look presentable in time. Soon the girls will be here!” " Do you realize how crazy this is? " I let out, looking for an outfit that fit me. “Besides, it's not my fault, I spent the last few minutes kneeling on the bathroom floor next to the toilet. I didn't have much of a choice.” When they found out about my pregnancy and my move to Aspen, the girls from work decided to have an early baby shower as a goodbye. Although I said I thought it was crazy, I was only three months pregnant, but I felt grateful for this gesture. They w

Samantha An uneasy silence filled the vehicle, and I was often watched by Calliope and her brother through the rearview mirror, but I promptly ignored them. I couldn't wait to get to my new home and get rid of them both. As the road became steeper and surrounded by those big rocky mountains, I began to feel the effects of the altitude, and the fact that the road was so winding was not helping my discomfort. I tried to restrain myself as best I could, but the second time I squatted down on the bench to get a little more comfortable, I felt Theon's gaze on me. " Samantha, are you all right? " he asked worriedly, finally breaking the silence that had settled over the room. " Yes, I am," I tried to keep my voice steady, "just…” " Just? " he insisted anxiously. " I think I need some air," I explained, closing my eyes and breathing deeply, under the watchful eyes of the two brothers. " In a few miles there is a lookout, I can stop there," he explained. " Can you handle it? " Calliope

Theon I left Samantha's house after loading her luggage without any doubts about my destination. I tried not to make things worse in her presence, But I wouldn't let it all go so easy.. A few minutes later I was ringing the doorbell of Adam's house. " Theon... Did you forget something with Callie? " My friend asked, surprised by my presence. I made my way to the kitchen, which was the only room with the lights on. Callie was sitting on the countertop, holding a glass of wine, at ease in her boyfriend's house. " Theon, what…” " We have some business to take care of, come on," I cut her off, crossing my arms, hoping that she would make my life easier. " Theon, what happened? " Adam stopped beside me, alternating his gaze between his girlfriend and me. Callie sighed, not looking very willing to follow me. " Theon, can we talk tomorrow?” " Callie, we're going to fix this now, even if I have to throw you over my shoulder and take you home," I warned. " Wow, easy there Theon. If sh

A few minutes later, I left home, walking to Samantha's house to introduce her to the city. I walked the few blocks that separated our houses, and soon I was ringing her doorbell.She answered the door wearing jeans, a black sweater, and her hair in a ponytail with a few loose strands falling over her face. She had a sheen of sweat on her forehead, revealing that she was working hard at something. " Hi Apollo, I thought you were coming later," she smiled. "I'm sorry, am I interrupting something?" I questioned a bit gracelessly. Samantha opened the way for me to enter the house, and I soon found out what caused her fatigue. All the suitcases and boxes I bought yesterday were open in the middle of the living room and most of them were already empty. " I hope you're not carrying any weight," I commented with concern. " Don't worry, we're fine," she reassured me. I walked through the boxes, looking at the contents of each one, identifying which one would weigh the most. " I'll help

Samantha I closed the door after saying goodbye to Theon, placing the shopping bags on the floor and leaning my forehead against the wood before taking a deep breath. What was that all about? Have I gone insane!? This morning I told Harper not to worry about me because I wouldn't interfere in her relationship, and a few hours later I kissed her boyfriend!? What is your problem, Samantha? Of course the kiss wouldn't have happened if he hadn't wanted it to, but it was like he said. Just the heat of the moment. Yes, I need to get it out of my mind, it is not right, I cannot allow my heart to go that way. But that kiss was so good. What does that mean? " It means that the guy has a good kiss," I said to myself out loud, leaning away from the door and walking to the kitchen after picking up the bags from the floor, "you knew that all along, Samantha, you kissed him dozens of times!” Yes, and that wasn't the only thing he did well, that I know for sure. Harper is a lucky woman. " T
