don't cry

MORGAN'S POV:"Morgan, you can't be doing this right now."My voice was as shaky as my hands right now. "I have to," I said, brushing through my hair hastily. "I have to leave. Now. I can't stay here any longer." I dropped the brush on the bed and picked up a small pocket mirror. My eyes shone with tears, tears that I would not let fall no matter what the hell happens."Morgan, it's two am. It's dark out there and it's not safe."I swerved around and met Winston's eyes. Deep down I felt really guilty right now. He just finished an eighteen hour surgery, he shouldn't have to deal with me right now. His eyes are dull, and there's dark circles under his eyes. He has barely gotten the time to change out of his scrubs and into his day clothes before the nurse ran out, calling his attention that I was trying to leave.I would have used the window so no one knew about it, but she just had to be a loud mouth. And now I've got him worried about me."Winston," I walked up to him, "you look exh

red flash

MORGAN'S POVI hadn't expected a mini party when I came back. Confetti exploded in the air, colorful bits of paper and glitter all littered on the floor. A loud should of "Welcome back!" Rang through the air, and I couldn't help the small smile on my lips."Thank you, everyone," I said, scanning the faces of my workers. They looked happy to see me, and while I didn't understand that, I was glad. "Miss Rosewood! You're back!" I nodded, flashing a calm smile at Nora. "Yes Nora, thank you. It's good to be back. The meeting is still on in five minutes right?"Nora nodded. "Yes. We didn't think you'd be discharged anytime soon so we....""It's fine," I put a warm hand over her shoulder. "We're going to be fine, okay."Her shoulder slumped and she exhaled. "Yes, I believe so."I barely remembered most of last night beyond tucking Miranda back in and staring at the ceiling till I fell into a fitful sleep.I had time to do a lot of thinking last night, and now it's painfully clear what I

steakhouse

Morgan's POV:"You actually came," Winston said, surprise visible in his eyes."What, you didn't believe me when I said I would?""Not that," He laughed softly. "You know, the last time I proposed something like this I didn't see you again."Ah yes, the very first time we met after I had spent so long running away from him. I laughed softly. "Yes, don't remind me."He took off his glasses and folded them carefully on his desk. That way I could see his eyes better. "So, the important thing you had to do, did you get it done?""Yes, I most certainly did." I said, remembering the flash. "What are we doing for tonight? Surely you're not going to confine me here, are you?""Not at all. Run some tests and see how things are going with you. And after, you'd join me for dinner.""Dinner? My my, you're so sly."His smile made me feel warm all over. "Thank you, I take that as a compliment." He got to his feet. "Come, let's begin the tests."*****The tests didn't take as long as I had expected.

drizzle

MORGAN'S POV"Just a minor health issue huh?" I grit out, unable to control the anger brewing inside me.Calm down, Morgan. Don't let your emotions get the better of you. Calm down. She's doing this to poke at you, fake concern. She doesn't know you've figured it out. Nova nodded and smiled. "All those nasty rumors talking about cancer and whatever,""Nova," Dante warned. But she completely ignored him."Thank the heavens they were wrong! I can't imagine my darling bestie having cancer or whatever. I can't imagine losing you!"Wow. How fucking rich. She's the one who started all the damned rumours. Being so fucking clever so it won't be traced to her no matter what. Looking at her makes me want to puke. I can't believe this snake was my best friend for so many good years of my life. I can't believe we used to be so damn close. I looked at Dante and the disgust increased ten fold. He chose her over me. She vanished for whatever reasons and when she came back, he tossed me to the cur

put on a show

Morgan's POV:I froze. The cold of the wind transferring to my veins.His lips felt so soft on mine and I felt my head spin. He whispered my name, like an unspoken prayer. I felt a shiver down my spine, and embarrassingly in my lower abdomen. I raised my hands up and gently wrapped them around his neck. my heart skipped a beat and I tilted my head to the side, my lips moving against his too."Fuck..." He groaned, his grip on my chin tightening. The rain got even harder, the sound of it defeanunHe pulled away, his eyes gazing into mine. His hair was wet, sticking to his forehead and the sides of hua face. His hand on my chin cupped my cheek and his thumb swiped across my lower lip. His eyes tracked down to my lips, his thumb pulling down my lower lip.His touch felt like a slow fire grazing my skin. I glanced at his lips, and to my horror I found that I wanted even more of him. "I'm sorry," His lips moved, his voice barely above the roar of the rain. "I just...I couldn't bear to see

stuck with you

Morgan's POV I toyed with the flash drive in my hands, playing with the smooth material of the red plastic under my finger tips.Dante and Nova. Gone. Like poof.I swerved my chair side to side, my mind deep in thoughts. I need to make the perfect strategy. The heat from all those distasteful rumours was starting to die down but every now and then it would be revamped and I would have to deal with that.But, I was handling everything fine. Except in my private life."Miss Rosewood?" A soft voice pulled me out of my thoughts. I snapped my head to the direction of the voice. Seated on the other side of my desk was a woman. Mrs Jersey. Rosewood enterprises had a law department. Morgan Rosewood had her own lawyer. And Mrs Jersey was that woman. I met her shortly after I and Dante for divorced and it's been a smooth not so smooth ride from their own.Urgh. Now I'm thinking of Dante again!"Yes?" I replied with a smile.Brenda, as I liked to call her, laughed softly. She balanced her gl

kick it

Morgan's POV:Stuck in this place with fucking Dante. My day can't get any worse. "Morgan," Dante called, and I felt his hand hovering above my shoulder. "Don't fucking touch me!" I turned around and glared at him. He took a step back. "You're looking at me like this is my fault.""Is it?!" I spat. "Imagine being stuck in here with you!""You make that sound like it's a bad thing,""It is! Everything about you is a bad thing! How can't you see that?!"He ran his fingers through his hair. "Okay, I'm guessing you have a lot of pent up anger and ....""Shut the fuck up." I leaned on the wall and folded my arms. "I don't want to hear jack shit from you!""Seriously, what's the matter with you? And why are you so damn far away?!"I glared at him "the audacity you have, Dante. I can't even believe you." I took my phone out and dialed the maintenance team. Fifteen minutes. That's how long it was going to take. I exhaled heavily. This is going to be a fucking bore. "Morgan?""Don't talk

late night whiskey

Morgan's POV:I don't think I drink that much. Personally, I prefer to stay away from alcohol as much as I can. I don't like the taste of it, and I don't like being drunk. But today, I felt like a drink.The meeting had gone well, thankfully. We didn't sign a deal yet but it looked like it was going to happen anytime soon. I was back home, after a long and late night at the office, and I felt like going to the bar.I poured myself a glass of cherry wine I had added some coke to, just to dull down the taste of the alcohol. I added a large ball of ice and sat down at the home bar.Since there were children in the house, the bar was constantly under lock and key with only the adults having access to it. The room was always chilled, a wide assortment of drinks in elaborate wooden shelves all over the walls. The wine cellar was below the room, housing dad's impressive wine collection.I sipped my drink, a soft sigh escaping my lips."You look exhausted." A voice said from the doorway. I t

drift

Morgan's POV:"Mommy! Cole is being mean to me again!" Miranda's scream rang out through the park, so loud that a few parents and even kids paused what they were doing and turned to face her.I blinked out of the fog that gathered in my head. I didn't realize I had been lost in my thoughts till I heard Miranda scream "Cole, please be nice to your sister.""She's not my sister." Cole said and folded his arms, a smug look on his face. "If she were actually my sister, she'll have no problem with us playing together!"I glanced at Miranda. She had her face smothered in custard pie, clunks of it dripping down her chin. I sighed softly and got up from the blanket I sat on."Don't say things like that." I said to Cole, a stern look on my face.Cole chuckled and turned away. He sighted a kid and her dog and ran up to them. While I had to stay behind wiping the mess off Miranda's face."I hate him" Miranda said, her voice cracking. "He's so mean to me."I felt a pang of guilt inside my heart.

red red lies

Morgan's POV:The picnic had gone horribly. If it had been a deal signing, I would have failed. It was currently night with the kids tucked in and sleep gone completely from my eyes. I sat at the kitchen counter, drinking from the carton of milk in hopes that I'll be able to sleep. "Miss Rosewood?" I heard a voice behind me and turned. Mr Vontrap stood in the doorway, an alarmed look on his face. "You're awake this late," I took a moment to look at him. My father's oldest staff, he's always been a permanent figure in my life. Ever since I was a kid, up until now. And the same is happening for my kids.Although I won't say I'm closer to him than I am to my father. Who am I actually kidding? I'm not even close to my father anymore."Yes, I'm awake." I replied and turned back to my milk."If you want to sleep, I will brew you some chamomile tea."I chuckled. "No thank you. I doubt any amount of chamomile will help me now. I'll just drink my milk in peace."He walked into the kitchen an
