I BELIEVE

your ex??

I used to not believe in miracles, but scratch that from my non believing things and no I'm not talking about how these people.....I mean us....gosh we are all reincarnated! It's crazy but yes that's not the miracle I'm talking about. The miracle I'm talking about is how calmly I'm sitting in front of Xavier and grace when I was having a mental breakdown a few minutes ago. We sat in silence for about 10 minutes before grace got bored and whispered to her brother.
"Why isn't her brains falling out yet?". Xavier didn't even bother to look at her as his gaze was solely fixated on me.
"Is she going to disappear anytime soon?" Grace asked, this time a bit louder.
"My brains are not falling out and I don't feel like....or think I'll disappear anytime soon" I answered back with a stern voice I didn't even recognize was mine. Maybe I was also mad, as stupid as it may sound, I'm mad because Xavier is mad at me. How could he even......gosh! This man was harder to solve than a math question.
"Grace I need you to go to your room now please" Xavier said as his eyes never left mine.
"But Xavier...." Grace tried to protest.
"Now..... please I f*cking beg you" Xavier said, his voice sounding a bit torn, even I felt some kind of pity towards him.
Grace stood up, looked up into my eyes as if she was silently begging to not blow this up, then just like that she took the room to her stairs as if nothing had ever happened.
"You have some explaining to do" I said rather calmly.
"Oh I have some explaining to do well news flash, I wasn't the one acting like I remembered everything, why the f*ck did you do that?!" His voice rose a bit at the end.
"What the hell did you expect me to do, you weren't telling me sh*t". I voiced out.
"It is dangerous for you......you could have f*cking died!" Xavier said angrily.
"Well news flash I'm still alive, if you can't see properly I hope now your ears work better" I said as I rolled my eyes. Gosh he was screaming at me as if I was some stubborn child who flunked out of school. When my eyes finally landed back on him, his face looked surprised.
"You've said this before" he muttered.
"Well that's great" I sassed.
"How the hell do you know what happened in the past?.......did grace tell you" he asked more calmly now.
"No she didn't, it turns out past me wrote a story on Wattpad to present to you as a gift". I said as I took in a deep breath.
Xavier's gaze softened towards me and I'm sure I wouldn't have captured it if I wasn't looking, because it disappeared a millisecond later, replaced by a stony look that sent shivers down my spine......... surprisingly in a good way. The hell had this man done to me.
"What's the book about?" He asked slowly.
"It's about whales having sex........the f*cking hell did you think it was about?" I snapped at him.
Xavier looked at me, dumbfounded for a few seconds, I was expecting a harsh reply, but what came out next was rather....... shocking. A smile broke out on Xavier's face, followed by a charming laugh. I'm not sure men are supposed to be described as pretty but I can bet you my whole life that Xavier McKenzie isn't handsome but drop dead gorgeous. I might be speaking like china right now but I don't give a f*ck this man was worthy of praise, not on the attitude part, sure.
"And here I was, thinking we were supposed to be fighting" I said with a smirk.
Xavier's amusement came to a stop after my remark, deep down I didn't want him to stop but we needed to figure out what to do.
"Kehlani, follow me" he commanded and started walking.
"You know a please wouldn't hurt" I replied.
"You were my assistant" he retorted.
"I was once your girlfriend you know" I said as a matter of fact.
He stopped in the middle of the stairs, as he turned to look at me.
"Once.... indeed, but sometime ago you were going to be my fiancèe until that accident took our lives, I can still feel the ring burning in my pocket." He replied with so much pain that even I felt sad. I was just imagining how it would have felt if I was in his position, getting all ready to send my girlfriend to a magical place whiles a ring burned a hole in my pocket, just to never get there, never propose and to never see her again. I felt a lump form in my throat as I hurried after Xavier.
~~~
Well his study was.....Xavier like, all dark and brooding with arrogance.
"Sit" he commanded once again.
I was about to sit in the vacant couch at the side but then he stopped me.
"No darling, sit in my seat" he said a little bit menacingly.
I wasn't in the mood to talk trash about his attitude but I sat either way.
"How does it feel like, to be seated in such a chair?" He asked.
"Well.... nothing pretty much, it's rather a bit uncomfortable"
"Well that's not quite the answer I expected but I'll go on.......this same chair used to be occupied by your ex in the past" he said as something between haunting and sorrowful passed in his green disturbingly distracting orbs.
"Who?" I asked, suddenly feeling curious.
"Kai McKenzie" Xavier said his name with so much distaste even I could feel how much he loathe his brother. That really wasn't the problem, my problem is did I just break up with Kai to get involved with his brother, I must have been very stupid in the past.
