Shaky Hearts

Emma’s POVI woke up to silence, it was almost like another dimension, far different from my tiny box apartment I shared with Anna. It was spacious and looked like an endless abyss of white perfection. I was awed, with how white the sheets and room was and it slowly clicked where I was, in the den of Jason Micheal. It was his den because Jason could make even a doll house a den, but it managed to be a heaven too. The only problem with that heaven was that my head hurt a lot. I stood up and reached for the bottle of water seated on the table next to my bed. There was a Pill next to it and I reached for it, immediately I swallowed the pill, the news started in the background.I sat there staring at a black spot on the wall while the TV served as a background noise. My head jerked up when it switched to entertainment news. What I saw first was a bad photo of me stuffing my fist in the arrogant face of Jason!‘Tech Millionaire, Jason Micheal, receives blow from violent partner over inte

Heart aches and Heartburn

Jason’s POVEscorting Emma to the hospital had not been in the plan for that morning, or any morning at all. I was worried, and very angry at myself. Why did I let her drink too much? Why did I immediately after, allow a bad publicity for her and her business air right after she woke up?I doubt she had even gotten around to forgiving me for four years ago and now I was piling even more things on that. What is wrong with you, Jason? This was not how to get your girl back.“Mr Micheal? She is awake, you can go and see her. Take her home too, she just had a stress reaction and it triggered her blood pressure. She can leave whenever she is ready,” The doctor explained and that immediately alarmed me.“Blood pressure?”The doctor looked momentarily confused before responding. “Yes. You do not know Mrs Micheal had high blood pressure? She is well aware, maybe you should check into that.” I shook my head shamelessly. I didn’t know when that had happened and maybe I didn’t suspect that beca

Dark Places and Endless Abyss

Jason’s POVI was bored.There was a truckload of work to do and the event was getting closer, in a week time I’d be tucked in yet another tuxedo and forced to sip on wine I didn’t quite enjoy while I greeted people I didn’t like, and even then the only thing I looked forward to was seeing her. I had been worried she would cancel our contract and not handle it again but she had been reaching out to Sabrina about important details. I removed my glasses and rubbed my eyes before reaching for the water on my desk and taking a long swig.“Shit,” I muttered as some water poured on my laps. I was being clumsy and that only happened when I had a lot on my head, which I did and I knew I did.“Next you’ll need a bib when you’re eating,” Sabrina’s stern voice said from the door and I reached for my glass and nabbed on the wet patch with a small napkin, desperately trying to dry it, it was fruitless.I groaned and tossed it on the desk. “What is it Sabrina?” “Well there’s a thousand unattended

Sun and Flowers

Jason’s POVI was bothered, her nightmares were the craziest part of her. Emma has had them ever since she was a teenager and when I met her, she always looked over stressed. The first time I had visited her dorm in college was after a party and she had left early. Anna was hooking up with some guy and she gave me the keys to their apartment so I could ‘return her jacket’.She had been fast asleep but not peacefully.I heard her screams and shouts immediately as I walked into the apartment. I first thought she was being attacked but I had gone in to find Emma soaked in her own sweat, shivering and crying hotly on the bed. I comforted her and eventually slept with her head on my chest. She told me it was the most peaceful night she had ever had in the six years since it started. I made it a point to not miss a night with her after that. It was on hold for most of our dating years, I didn’t consider that it would return. Not at all. “Yeah. Sadly, it took her a full year and hyper fixa

An Honorary Visitor

Jason’s POV“What?” I said into the phone as I unlatched it from the wall and held it to my ear. I knew only one person who would call at night without any reason. Maybe reasons were attached but regardless, for the silliest and enraging reasons.“That’s a way to say thank you to your Secretary that helped you choose the perfect flowers for your girl?“ She teased and I rolled my eyes.“You didn’t help me choose the flowers, I know sunflowers are her favorites so I sent you to help me purchase them and deliver them to her place,” I corrected and she scoffed, when it was a little sane, I asked. “Did you wait around to see her reaction? Was she excited or just indifferent?” Sabrina was quiet. “I won’t tell you that, sir. I believe there may be love in there somewhere but this is an unhealthy obsession and I won’t fuel it. Allow the young lady to catch her breath, you’re smoldering her.”I didn’t understand what she was saying, maybe she was doing that because Emma had looked angry. “Oh,

Meeting The Rogers

Emma’s POVWe got to Plethora INC at 10:45 on the dot. It was an unexpected gig and as I stared at the high rise building I decided I would have to thank Jason later for this gig. He was being very helpful and the gig kept on coming in, some I had to layover and others I took head on.This was an elite dinner and I already had the details and props and was going to be adding to the venue.“We have been visiting the prettiest of places the past month. I love it Emma!” Irene said as she pulled the trolley of things to where I stood.“It is surprising to me too, honey. Get it in there, the lighting people would soon come,” I instructed her and she walked off. I drew out my phone before I forgot and texted Anna first.‘I am calling him now ;)’ I searched for his name and when it popped up, I hesitated before dialing it.I knew he had been the one that sent the flowers the other day and I had not even thanked him for that yet. I may not want any more things from him when it came to feeli

Rich Pain in the Ass

Jason’s POVI was grumpy, my head hurt, my mouth was sore and it felt like I would drop dead in the next minute. But I had to show up for the Rogers party. It was a tech summit and I was a member of the board in plethora INC. I hadn’t even known I was until my third meeting with Rogers last year and Sabrina had told me the fifth reason why I had to show up. In her words, ‘I doubt you know how much wealth you have amassed’. I hoped she knew I didn’t, I just wanted to code and exist, maybe make major mistakes sometimes. I was thinking of the brief conversation with Emma that I had earlier, the one that involved me being a total jerk. The one where I wanted to believe it was just because of the senator’s unexpected entrance in my life, the one I knew was actually because of my tired state, the pain of waking up to someone that wasn’t her, I wanted her back. Fast too.“The car is ready sir!” The butler said from outside my door and I grumbled, of course the car was ready. I was the one

Cocktails and Awards

Emma’s POVI had noticed his glance on me all through the night, it was hard not to notice those boring blue eyes. I had been bored to death by the man Lorelai had introduced me to, but wasn’t that what I was searching for? A safe man, far different from the one standing in front of me.“What do I want? I cannot say hello to you?” He asked me and I rolled my eyes. “This is a way to say hello, taking me away from my escort. Isn’t the pretty event planner here, the other one that I was accused of being jealous of. Rachel?” I snapped and he looked at me like I had gone mad. Maybe I had, but I was definitely out of line, I wanted to play the irritated mysterious event planner today but he had sucked out the rage in me.“Escort? You came alone, I watched Lorelai introduce you to him! And what does Rachel have to do with this? I haven’t seen her today,” he paused and looked at me, his eyes glinting mischievously in the dark night. “Unless you’re jealous.”I gasped, and then moved away from

Bubblegum

Jason’s POVShe smelt like bubblegum, I couldn’t explain it or how that thought settled in my head but she did and I tried not to smuggle close to her, it would be very weird. I watched her from the side and she was pretty content being mute. She wasn’t saying anything and I didn’t want to probe words out of her so I remembered the files Sabrina had sent for me to go through. I brought out my phone and went there, the words weren’t working out well for my eyes so I immediately slipped out my glasses. I put them on and before I knew it, I was lost in tech language and contract terms.I had forgotten all about the parcel I received few days ago and I had seen the distraction I needed to not gawk at Emma. Her smell was intrusive but I allowed it exist as a residing fragrance.“You look so odd with them,” she finally said. The way my head shot up would probably be referred to as a little to obvious but I didn’t care.“What?” I asked her, narrowing my eyes.“The glasses, you look so…. Har

Fire in a Box

Emma’s POV“Well open it! Who is it from?” She squealed in excitement, brightening up in a most suspicious manner. “What?”“Was he in here last night?” I asked, playing with the box, it was a velvet based box, big enough to contain a set of keys. “Yeah, he carried you from the car. I promised you he was behaving himself. Did he send the box?” “If he was here, it means he didn’t send the box. He set the box,” I responded, he hadn’t changed so much and that was bad for me because even though I lied that I was a different person, it seem like I was fated to fall in love with a Jason Micheal type in every lifetime.“Well open it! Don’t tell me you plan to play the righteous ex and return it?” She said with horror showing it’s face in her expression.I shook my head. “I don’t want a present from Jason.” At least not one that was so strategically placed and given, it would mean too much intention, it would mean a Jason comeback. I didn’t want that for my life or career.“Just open this,
