The Next Morning
W E D N E S D A Y

Juliet
I woke up in such a comfortable and warm position. In his arms to be precise. He held me all night.

Since I woke up first I decided to go downstairs and make some breakfast.

Mason
I woke up alone...
I didn't feel her next to me.

I sat up and scanned the room.

Did she leave?

I got up and went downstairs looking for her.

The smell of coffee made me walk into the kitchen.

Juliet
I was in the middle of making coffee when I felt some arms wrap around me.

Mason : You left me alone.
Juliet : I'm just really hungry...
Mason : Coffee for me too?
Juliet : Give me a kiss and I will.
Mason : As you wish!

Juliet
He cupped my cheek and lifted up my face to give me a sweet kiss..

Mason : This was the best night.
Juliet : -smile- Mason....
Mason : Tell me..
Juliet : What's gonna happen now?

Mason : I don't know.....all I know is that I can't stay away from you. -kiss-
Juliet : What about Ava?
Mason : You know I don't want to marry her....
Juliet : So you're not getting married?
Mason : ...No but I need a bit of time to plan this out..
Juliet : I see....
Mason : Bear with me baby. it's not that easy.
Juliet : I get it. She's your fiancée.
Mason : Let me tell you the full story.
Juliet : How about I make coffee first?Mason : Perfect!

Ava : Good morning!
Alize : Ava!!!!!
Ava : I'm going to see Mason.
Alize : He's not here....
Ava : What?
Alize : ...
Ava : Where's his secretary?
Alize : She's not here either...
Ava : What the hell Alize? What's going on?
Alize : Um-
Eliza : Ava!! Welcome back!!!
Ava : Where's Mason? And where's his secretary?
Eliza : Juliet said she isn't coming. She baked the deserts for yesterday's event. The girl is so tired! Mason? I don't know where he is.

Ava
I'm not stupid. I know they're together right now.

Ava : Okay
Alize : I'll get going now.
Ava : No, you and I are going to talk. I want to catch up with my bestie.
Eliza : Actually! She's helping us with the outfits. Come on Alize.
Ava : The rest of the models aren't here yet. She can talk with me while they arrive. Come on Liz. -walks away-
Eliza : Remember....
Alize : Relax.......-walks away-

Mason's House

Mason : My father and her father were like brothers. They founded the company together. That's why it's called Naveda Fields. When her parents passed away my parents took them in. We grew up together.
Juliet : I see...
Mason : Juliet, I don't want to let go of you. I want to explore this beautiful experience I know you can give me.
Juliet : it's not going to be easy.
Mason : I know baby but let's not end it right now yeah.....? Let's go with the flow....

Juliet
If anything I'm scared. I'm scared of how hard I'm going to fall. I'm the other woman here.

But I don't want to let go of him either.
I've tried to but I can't...

Mason
I know this isn't easy for her but I really don't want to let go of her!
I have to find a way to break up with Ava because there's no way I'm marrying her.

I can't and I won't.

Ava's Office

Ava : So how you been?
Alize : Good!
Ava : Anything you didn't want to tell me over the phone?
Alize : No...
Ava : Are you sure?
Alize : Why are you so calm?
Ava : What do you mean?
Alize : Yeah like- you're not going crazy looking for Mason.
Ava : He didn't pick me up at the airport.
Alize : Oh....
Ava : He hasn't even called me.
Alize : ...
Ava : I want to see how long it takes for him to remember that I came back today.
Alize : He must be tired after yesterday's event.
Ava : Yeah....

Mason's House

Juliet : Can I make something?
Mason : Of course!
Juliet : What do you like?
Mason : You!
Juliet : ......I'm talking about food.
Mason : -grin-
Juliet : Mason!
Mason : -laugh- I like anything you make.
Juliet : Pasta?
Mason : Sure!
Juliet : Okay.
Mason : it'll be a privilege to watch you cook.
Juliet : -smile-
Mason : Juliet?
Jules : Yeah?
Mason : This might sound selfish but I don't know how I feel about you being friends with Carter.
Juliet : ...
Mason : He's into you and I don't like that.
Juliet : We're just friends.
Mason : Okay....
Juliet : Mason......you being jealous is really unfair.
Mason : I know I know and I'm sorry baby but trust me when I say you're the one I want...

Juliet
He wrapped his arms around my waist and gave me a big kiss.

Mason : I think I rather have you than the spaghetti.
Juliet : -laugh- Let me cook yeah?
Mason : Alright!

Ava's Office

Carter : Mason and Juliet aren't here.
Ava : Do you think they're together?
Carter : No Juliet isn't like that. She's different than the rest.
Ava : Bullshit!
Carter : I've gotten to know her a lot more. She's really sweet.
Ava : I'm not buying her act.
Carter : I didn't see anything suspicious between them. I say drop that story in your head.
Ava : It's not that easy!
Carter : It's not that easy because of how many times he has cheated on you! And what do you do? You forgive him anyway! What difference does it make if he's cheating on you with her. It's going to keep happening Ava!
Ava : I know he won't cheat on me once we get married.
Carter : -facepalm-
Ava : You don't understand me because you're not in love!
Carter : I would never cheat on my girl.
Ava : Never say never.
Carter : Ava, if I love my girl, why would I cheat on her?
Ava : Men are weak!
Carter : If you love someone, you don't cheat on them. The thing is that he doesn't love you Ava. He's not in love with you. He never was! He only proposed because his parents pressured him to!
Ava : Stop!!
Carter : It's the truth!!
Ava : No it's not!!
Carter : Stop being in denial!! Ava why don't you want to see things as they are?!
Ava : You don't understand me because you've never been in love. Argue with me when you're in love.
Carter : ....
Ava : You can leave.
Carter : -walks out-

Ava
I love Mason so so much.
I don't want to lose him.
I'm not going to lose him.
I don't care how many times he cheats on me.

I have hope he's going to stay loyal to me once he marries me.

Oh but Juliet.....
I have plans for her.

To be continued.....
