When Nicole left. I was still with Ace. He told me strange things like afrer the 3 years of our separation, he'll marry me, have kids with me, kiss me everytime he'll leave for work, sometimes, we'll have dinner dates like just the two of us. And that we'll celebrate our Monthsaries, anniversaries. And our birthdays with each other. And that eveyday he'll wake me up with a kiss on the lips. I just kept on listening. I couldn't help but smile then cry at the same time. I didn't know he had future plans with me.

He made a laugh. All I could do was just hug him tight. So I did.

After the drama. Jace told me to freshen up. I did. After all he's here. And im okay with that. When I was about to walk my way upstairs, Ace suddenly grabbed me and said, "Enjoy your bath, but please wear the shirts that I will give you, i'll be back." after that he pushed me slowly to walk my way upstairs. I looked back, he was running his way to his house.

As I had my bath. It was relaxing. I felt the water, it was cool and soothing.
I can believe that after what happened. We still made it into each other's arms.

I just closed my eyes, and enjoyed my bath. I didn't know that minutes later, I was completely falling asleep.

I drifted to sleep. I had this dream that I was drowning together with this unknown girl. And we were drowning together. Like afterwards, rescuers came. Then my eyes found his. Jace's eyes. I knew that he was going to save me. But then when I held out my hand. I couldn't help but wished that I could just drown. He ignored my hand, instead, he chose to rescue the unknown girl. She was safe. I was not. I was left behind. Then, afterwards, other rescuers saved me. Kept me calm. I was just sitting on the car across the car of Jace. He was there. With that girl. He looked really worried.

And there. I felt jealous. So I screamed. I screamed so loud that no one could hear me.

That's when reality hit me. I was still in my bathroom. I was naked inside the bathtub. I was having a nightmare. I was sobbing so hard that made me realize I was still alive.

A minute later, I heard footsteps approaching. Then Jace called out my name. I was crying. Tears were streaming down. When I heard him, I said, " i'm okay babe. Don't worry, i'll be out in a minute."

I heard his sigh out of relief. I giggled. That was one stupid dream. Ace replied, "Okay babe, i'll just place the shirts here. Please do wear them. I love you. I'll wait for you downstairs. "

I heard his footsteps fading.

When I tied my hair. I went outside. It was one messy bun. But I didn't care. Jace still loves me.

There. On my bed. I saw a lot of shirts. It was from my boyfriend.
There were 7 shirts. 3 were on the color of white. 2 were from black and 1 of grey and another 1 for the color red.

I picked the white one. It looked big on me. I paired it with my shorts. I looked cute. I admit that.

After dressing up. I head downstairs. There I saw Ace preparing a viant. He was cooking while dancing. He had his iPod on. Slowly moving his body side by side. And turns out he was enjoying what he was doing.

As I continued watching him. I made a few giggles but still he didn't hear me.

I got fiesty. So i tsk-ed 5 times. And that made him look at me.

He had this cute face that was telling me like " did you see all of that look?" . When I looked into his eyes and nodded. He let out a cry, " oh no! Shouldnt have seen that! It was embarassing. Hey, im not gay."

I just went to him and said, "i know. You even look cute doing that."

After that. Everything was back to normal. He told me to stay on the couch in the living room while he'll prepare for our snacks.

I was just watching Gossip Girl when he entered the room. He brought Doritos. And a strawberry juice. Hmm. I am satisfied.

An hour passed, Jace was already sleeping in my shoulders. I let out a smile. I couldn't believe we have to separate to get things on our hands and come back for each other when everything is in place.

I woke him up and told him to prepare for the dinner with Nic Nic amd Aldrich.

In reply? He kissed my forehead and told me that he'll be back.

As for me, I went straight to my room and prepare for my outfit.

I was confused. When I looked at my closet. There were a lot of dresses. I couldn't even pick for what was I going to wear. I just kept on looking for something. And there I found a floral dress. It was a black dress that had red and white flowers had its design. I picked the Red Jimmy Choo's for my shoes.

After looking at myself at the mirror. I headed downstairs. When i heard a lot of voices. It turned out to be their friends. Nicole, Aldrich, and 3 other friends of theirs. I tend to look for Jace. No sign of him.

I waited at the stairs. And there. I saw him in his black shirt and shorts. He looked soo great. I could notice in his eyes that he was also looking for me.

I was still stunned. But then he caught my eyes and gestured me to go downstairs.

I placed my hand on the handle and walked my way down to the strairs as Jace waited for me to escort me to the dining table.

We were approaching, there I saw a lot of food in the table. Lots of my favorite foods.

When we had the actually dinner. Jave and I had the opportunity to meet the 3 friends. Turned out to be Claire, Ivy and Melissa.

They were all enjoying. After all the dinner turned out well.

Claire, Ivy and Melissa left after the celebration cause the had to do something else.

I just notice. Ace was feeling a little bothered. I asked him if he was okay, in reply, he just smiled and told me that he'll tell me later..

I knew that something is going on. Maybe one of the girls is the women that he'll marry. I hope not. Cause if I knew, I am going to hate her.
