ATLANTA AXEL

It's been a week, I decided not to ask Mama and Papa about my name because I strongly feel that Ma and Pa would never do anything unless it's for my sake. But I cringe so hard when I hear the name spill from someone's lips.

I smile thinking of Styx that man has me in a chokehold. Just thinking of him makes me so happy. I can't fucking believe his mine- sometimes I think I'm dreaming and I even have to pinch myself to confirm it's real.

ALESSA

You're still coming, right?

Cazzo, you forgot...

I smile before sending Alessa a quick reply reassuring her I'm still coming. Alessa and I are meeting at her house to celebrate our results which we received this morning. I haven't opened mine because the anxiety is eating me alive.

"Good morning Mama." I greet smiling and placing a soft kiss on her cheek. "Good morning Atley."Papa greets smiling cheekily coming out of the kitchen with a blueberry cake. "Morning." I smile cheekily.

Mama smiles cheekily and walks into the living room coming back with Papa's laptop. "The results are in."Papa says, smiling at me reassuringly. "Do you want to open them?" Mama ass and I nod my head.

I log into the page and hold my breath as I reload the page. Mama's hand grips mine reassuringly and Pa places his hands on my shoulders. I close my eyes, fear taking over.

"Atlas, look"Mama says, smiling her voice laced with happiness. "Oh my," I whisper standing up excitedly as I look at my results. I crossed the finish line. "I'm so proud of you, Atley."Papa says, kissing my cheek.

I hug Papa and Mama joins "I'm so proud of you, Atlas" Mama whispers and I chuckle softly. "Let's have breakfast." Papa says, sending me a grin and smiling at Mama. " Aage is in his room sleeping and Ant is at work." Mama says serving herself some toast.

I take in a sharp breath the need to ask them about my name, strong. "Are you going to work?" Mama asks and I nod, chewing on strawberries. "I'll drop you." she says smiling. "I'll be down in ten minutes." I inform you of strolling to the stairs.

"Thanks for the cake Mama, Papa." I shout when I'm at the top of the stairs.

STYX

Did you get your results?

Fuck!

Tesoro, are you okay?

I smile cheekily the butterflies in my stomach combusting into flames, I love this side of Styx it's so cute.

Yes! Just forwarded them to you. I'll call you later.

I throw on a yellow summer dress with flowers and pair it with white mini heels and retouch my makeup which I had done before breakfast after showering.

I shut the door softly clutching onto my white mini handbag walking to Mama's car. " Are you heading to the bakery?" I ask Mama as I close the door to the passenger seat. "Spill." Mama says with a knowing grin smiling softly at me.

I open my mouth and shut it, not knowing what to say. "Are you guys a thing?" Mama asks, chuckling softly as she starts the car " Mama-" I start but I nod my head when she looks at me with one of those looks that say don't bother denying it.

"Honey, you're glowing, have you guys gone all the way?" She asks and I choke on air not knowing what to say. "Mama." I say looking out of the window. This conversation is awkward. "Your silence says it all." She says taking a left turn.

"I like him, mama." I whisper and she turns her gaze to me smirking slightly " I Know I see it when he texts you." she says smiling, her attention focussed on the road.

"Did you use protection?" She asks and I look out of the window tracing a butterfly on my purse, "No." I answer. " I would have Known if you were pregnant." She says cheekily. "Mama can we not?" I ask and she laughs lightheartedly diverting the attention of the topic.

"When are we meeting him?" She asks sheepishly "Stige, hmm?" she asks again, I smile softly before answering her " Graduation." I mumble. " Alessa told me." she answers before I can ask. I chuckle softly, so Alessa must have told Mama everything about Styx and me.

...

"Come on, Atlas, I'm heading out, I'll drive you home." Jay says and I smile exhaustedly. Hand modeling is hectic at times. I spent most of my day painting my nails and taking photos.

Today was one of the easiest days. I only had to advertise a hand cream. My nails are painted baby pink, I keep in mind I won't have to go get my nails done for the graduation. " Thanks, Jay, I appreciate it." I say, smiling, slightly when I get into the car.

"I'm heading downtown so I'll drop you off first then go." He explains " I'm heading in that direction so..." I smile cheekily and he returns the smile taking a turn onto the main road. "So are the results in?" He asks, attempting a small talk.

"They are." I mumble nibbling on my bottom lip to attempt to control my excitement. "I know you did amazing. Atlas." He says smiling and motioning for me to put the location into the GPS. I key in the street Styx lives in and rest my head on the window enjoying the evening.

"Over here is fine." I say smiling sweetly at Jay. "Congratulations Atlas." Jay says smiling, I whisper a thank you and get out of the car. I didn't miss Jay's eyes accessing the walled compound.

I walk to the gate and ring the bell. After a while, a body guard opens the gate and greets me. I look back, Jay the passenger window is opened and Jay sends me a wave before driving off

I smile cheekily thanking the guard and make my way to the house. The fountain is beautiful and the flowers litter the compounds. I take a sharp intake of air and look around at some of the cars in the compound.

I ring the doorbell and wait. I take out my phone and see a few Notification messages from Styx, Alessa and Mama. I put my phone back in my bag when the door opened. " Atley, Alessa squeals pulling me into a hug.

" Are you hungry? Ma baked some chocolate cupcakes and we need to talk." she rumbles, pulling me in and shutting the door as she drags me to the kitchen. " You look gorgeous." Alessa says, sending me a wink. I chuckle softly and mumble she should see herself

"How was work?" she asks, serving a glass of fresh passion juice and then passing it to me before placing a plate of spaghetti with sauce in front of me. We are seated on the island and nobody seems to be home. I admire their kitchen because it's so luxurious and big.

"Today was tiring, I think I'll take a few days off after graduation." I tell her and she nods in agreement and sits opposite me with her food. I tell Alessa about my results and she mumbles about hers as we eat our food.
