" Aunt Laine I'm home Where are you?" I cried out as if the house is on fire."Yes honey I'm here in the kitchen just come here," she shouted back with excitement.

I walked barefooted to the kitchen where my aunt favorite area in our mini house. Mini house to be called compared to a huge mansion of course. We used to yell at each other like we were like a kids.

She is the youngest sister of my mom. When my mom died she took me to her place and accepted me as her own flesh. Laine and Zack were the only family I had and she knews Ridge too. Laine was married to a wealthy man in London but not long after their wedding, they had split and signed a divorce papers.

Their marriage is a nightmare to my Aunt...So after the divorced she went back to our old house in Canada.

I saw my Aunt in the kitchen. She was busy baking cookies I guessed. I ran to her with open arms and hugged her tightly . "I miss you," I murmured.
"Me too honey, I love you."

She patted my shoulder before she went back to her unfinished work and started stirring and mixing all the ingredients for the cookies.

I moved next to her and whispered. "Aunt Laine I have something to asked you." She frowned as if she was curious of what I had said. " Yeah sure."

"Do you know Horace Webber right?"

"Yes of course and he is here right now with your Dad." Laine said.

I wasn't surprised anymore because Shiloh reminded me of it. Oh my God speaking of Shiloh , I forgot he is with me. "Ummm..wait Aunt Laine Horace cousin is here with me. I left him in the couch.."

"Cousin? Who?" She asked and seeing her reaction she was a bit confused. "Shiloh," I answered while spooning Nutella into my mouth. I love chocolate very much especially when I felt down I'm craving for it like I'm dying if I wouldn't have it. I licked the back of spoon when Horace and Shiloh appeared in the Kitchen. Seeing Horace gazing at me make me feel uncomfortable. I could feel the atmosphere went hot though It wasn't hot as it look but watching my Dad who entered in the kitchen after Shiloh and Horace appeared, Aunt Laine and Shiloh gawking between me and Horace make me melt. I don't like this. I cleared my throat. "Hi dad I miss you." He Hug and kissed me in the head. "Me too honey." I felt I'm crying but I held back the tears to fall down. "By the way Aunt Laine this is Shiloh." I said it seriously. "So your Shiloh hahahaha." Aunt Laine poke him in the ribs. "If you replace your name with that find a beautiful one Ethan Brown." Shiloh went stiff and touched Aunt Laine in the shoulder and whisperd something that I couldn't hear. Somethings off here, everyone avoiding me. Then she burst into laughter. "This guy has been deceiving you my dear. Kill him if you like and I don't care at all." Shiloh drew a deep breaths and face me. "Okay fine, sorry I am not Shiloh. My real name is Ethan Brown." I crossed my arms. Instead of getting mad at him. I turned to face Horace who was leaning in the counter. "Is this your game right?" I asked. Dad and Shiloh chuckled. I greeted my teeth. "What so funny about it?"

They both stop and Shiloh chime in. "Horace has no idea about lying at you. I did it because I knew you won't listen and believe on me if I will not use Horace family name. Sorry for that can we be friends again."

"Friends huh, Give me some time to think if I will accept you as a friend liar." I smiled secretly. I never thought richest man like him knews how to apologise. Shiloh isn't bad. He has a good heart after all.

After dinner my Dad went to asked me If I am ready to marry Horace. I told him to not worry about me because I knew what I am doing. My Dad cried and kiss me in the forehead. Then went to his room. Shiloh has gone to New York after he finished talking to Horace. Aunt Laine knew them pretty well. When I asked her about how did she knew Horace and Shiloh that much. She just told me to trust Horace because he is an amazing man. Indeed I end up knowing nothing. I flop down to my bed. Staring at the ceiling. I miss this room. It used to be my room but when I began to study college I hadn't had a time to visit my hometown. I almost fell asleep when my phone sang a cold water by Justin Beiber, It was my ringing tone. Horace calling me. Speaking of Horace we hadn't talk why he summoned me here in my hometown. "Hello" Horace where are you?" I asked. "Here in the park." He said.

"What are you doing there?"

"Please come over here, it is not far. I think it is one block away from your house." He sighed.

"I Knew." I said.

Walking to the park felt like amazing I had miss it so much. When I saw Horace my heart beat loudly. I had never experience this to Ridge. Why he is so handsome? I couldn't believe that he would become my husband soon. Then suddenly he parted his lips and showed me a posture of a firm man. "Rey I like you." Horace said. Did I hear it wrong. I like you he repeated the word not once but twice. I felt like the world has stopped and its just the two of us standing under the moonlight. "Your too harsh to me sometimes, how does it happen." I said.

"Being afraid that I might try to control you, I thought about being harsh with you as a barrier for my feelings and I even tried to push you to the limit which makes the calculation work but you still accept me as who I am and tried to understand me. I tried my own best but now I am going to do what I want. From now on it is your turn to be unyielding and enduring. You deal with it." Horace step closer to me. The distance between Horace and I has gone." I don't understand. If you like, shouldn't you tell me to fall for you?" I said playfully. "Do you see this as a sweet confession to simply seduce you? If you don't want me to fall for you then you shouldn't trying to seduce me." Horace began to touched the tip of my hair and smelled it. I blushed and my heart beat faster. It never cross to my mind that Horace has a sweet side. I think I fall in love with him.

"You mean, Your telling me that you like me?" I asked.

"When I was away from you, I missed you and I worried about you. I felt pathetic staring at the phone to see i you call or texted me. But you didn't." Horace hadn't stop playing my hair and began caressing my face. Seeing Horace so close to me that our face and lips almost touching. "I hadn't texted or called you because I don't want to disturb you, thats it." He touched my lips. "I felt better now that I have confessed. So let's go." I can't stop myself to kissed him because I really wanted to touched and kissed him. I pulled away from him but he pulled me back and kissing me deeply with his lips.
