"Arie, wake up." Someone said as they shook me. "Arie," they continued to pester me. "Arie!" They finally shouted, and I flung my hand out into a slapping thingy. "Ouch!"

"What do you want?" I mumbled tiredly.

"We're at your house," he says. I doze back off, and close my eyes all the way again. "Oh no you don't!"

"Let me sleep," I mumbled.

"No, you can sleep later." He shouts at me, and I growl at me. "Your 'growls' sound like a little kitten, cute." He tells me.

"I'm gonna hit you in your face, and then run it over with your car three times." I grumble, and turn away from him.

"Arielle!" He shouts in my ear.

"I'm serious," I hiss at him. Still not opening my eyes. "Let me sleep," and then I hear a sigh.

"Fine," the door slams shut, and then I hear mine open. I feel him lift me up, and carry me bridal style.

"What are you doing?" I asked him.

"You wouldn't get up, so I had to work a different way..." He told me, and then he walked us to my front door quietly.

"Hell-o? What is going on here?" I hear my mother ask Cole.

"She wouldn't get up, so I had to carry her." He tells her.

"Okay?"

"Yeah..." He mumbles.

"So um, why do you have a supermodel with you at my house?" She asks him, obviously not knowing he knows. How would she? I haven't told her.

"Mrs. Potter, I know that this is Arielle, and I know that she is your daughter." He tells her bluntly.

I hear my mother sigh, "bring her in..." She mumbles, and I can almost feel her rubbing her temples right now, it's a family thing. "Arie, how could you be so foolish?" She asks me quietly.

"I didn't tell him, he came to one of my shows, and he figured it out..." I tell her, and she sighs.

"How much will it cost to keep you quiet?" My mother asks him, and he smiles at her.

"No charge necessary, Arie and I have already made a deal, right darling?" He asked me, I was still in his arms, and was zoned out. "Arie?" He asks me.

"Huh, oh, yeah..." I mumble tiredly.

"Oh, alright..." My mother mumbles. "What is it?" She asks him curiously.

"She has agreed to be my girlfriend, you see, I've always had a huge crush on your daughter... So this is a blessing to me." He tells me.

"Hm, really?" My mother asks him, I couldn't tell what was in her voice, but I thought it was either curious or suspicious. Somewhere in between those.

"Yup, isn't that right darling?" He asks me, and I shrug my shoulders. To tired to talk anymore. "She's really tired from her modeling and stuff." He tells her, and I close my eyes, finally going into a deep sleep.

(Cole's POV)

Arie was asleep, I couldn't look away from her beautiful face. I don't know why she would hide her beauty from the world, well... Sort of?

Whatever. Her tannish face showed how long her lashes were, and the calmness on her face that she held when she was asleep was... I don't know, something. Something I never saw, but I knew why. It was because I was stupid when it came to expressing my feelings.

I know it's wrong to hold her secret against her, I had no right to do what I did. But I couldn't redo it, and I couldn't dwell on it, I just had to show her what I feel, someway, somehow... Someday.

I realized that I was being a creep staring at her face like that, but I couldn't look away. It was like my eyes were glued to her face, and when I tried to pull away, they would just come back. 'I should leave,' I thought.

"Thanks for letting me in, Mrs. Potter." I say with a smile on my face. She nodded her head with a small smile on her face.

"No problem my dear, come over again soon." She says and then looks over to Arie. "Before you leave..." She started.

"Yes?" I asked her.

"Do you mind, um, putting her into bed?" She asked me. "I'd do it, but I'm not very strong..." She mumbled.

"Sure," I mumble. She beams at me, and then glances at her daughter.

"Third floor, second door to the right." She tells me, and I nod my head. Lifting up Arie gently into my arms. "Thank you dearie." She says, and I nod my head again.

Arie sighs, and I look down at her. "Of course I'll have dinner with you," I smile. She's probably dreaming about me-"Maddox," she sighed again.

I felt something stir in me, something that I only ever feel when it comes to Arielle, or Arie; jealousy. The first time it happened was when we were twelve, well, Arielle was, I was thirteen. It was Arielle's thirteenth birthday, and all the boys at her party were crowding around her. She was giggling and laughing with them, that was when we were best friends. My jealousy ended our friendship that day, and I've always tried to show her how I feel, but I end up acting like a jerk.

She hates me even more now because of the blackmail, but I feel that this is a chance for us to reconnect. Maybe it'll work, maybe it won't, but I'm going to try.

I'm going to work things out between us, try to fix the brokenness of our relationship before its to late. I have to try, I have to, for me, and for Arielle.
