Life was normal for Alliot. At 21 years old she's working as an intern at Woods Industries as the personal assistant to CEO of Woods Industries, Ms Hunter-Woods while trying to juggle her final year in college as well. Suddenly one night her life ch...
A/N: Hey, hope you guys had a good week! Enjoy the update :-P

"Bonnie! How's my favourite girl doing?"
He called. He actually called. But that's not how it works. Your one night stands (or whatever THIS is) aren't supposed to keep in touch. Why is he keeping in touch? Maybe he's up for a booty call... My conscious tells...
"Hello? Alliot, I know you're there. I can hear you hyperventilating." His tone is deadpan although you can hear a sliver of worry in his voice. I didn't even realize I was hyperventilating, I mean this is all new to me but the thought that my conscious implanted in my head was starting to make my blood boil.
"Alliot if you don't ans-" he says starting to get annoyed.
"Clyde! To what do I owe this honour of thy calling me?" I ask dramatically trying to calm myself down.
"Well, fair maiden, I did say I was going to call you later to check up on you and tis what I'm doing now but judging from your reaction you didn't think I actually would." He says amused.
"Well first, I'm fine. Thank you for calling-"
"It's my pleasure and I am a man of my word!" He quickly interject.
"Secondly, if your actual intention of this call is to booty call me-" the nugget cuts me off again
"Good! You know, I couldn't think of an easy way to ease you into that topic!" He sighed sounding reliefed. The nerve of this boy.
"You're such a typical fuckboy if you think I'm going to be-" he cuts me off again. The nurses in the hospital reception as well as the other people in the hospital were now staring at me so I hurriedly went outside the hospital to my mom's car that I was now using for the time being. I opened the car door quickly and entered the car.
"I'm kidding Alliot! I honestly just wanted to check on how you were doing because judging by how much you drank last night, I knew for a fact that you would probably suffer a hangover." he said laughing. "My intentions are good, I swear."
As I turned on the car air conditioner because the car was now sauna hot, I considered the boy's words and he really did sound genuinely concerned so I let him of the hook but I'm watching him.
"Okay, well thank you Hayden for breaking the norm. So did you solve the problem that led you to leave me and for me to wake up next to a typical pillow dent that smells of the unrequited love that slept next to me?" I said sighing dramatically.
"It's a pleasure treasure but unfortunately nope. I'm still trying to understand and solve it as we speak-"
"Hayden could you hang up already! I'm sure your one night stand has better things to do with her life than to deal with you!" The girl in the background shouted at Hayden. One night stand? That bitc-
"Again she is not my one-night-stand H! Like I told you this is different!" He shouted back at the girl named H? He cut my train of thoughts when he repeatedly called my name.
"Yes, yes I'm here." I said quickly.
"I'm so sorry about that, like I said, I'm trying to solve the problem as we speak. So I'll check you later?" He asked sounding weary.
"Uhm, yeah sure. Good luck with that.." I scoffed trying to hide the giggles that are just trying to escape from my mouth. I certainly wouldn't want to deal with that hot tempered girl.
"Uh, thanks... Bye Bonnie!" He laughed nervously as he bid farewell.
"Bye Clyde" I said with a small smile then he hung up.
Well this has certainly been an eventful day. I started the car and drove off from the hospital to my apartment to get ready to go to the school library to finish up my assignment due on Tuesday.
The assignment counts 40% of the term's mark and I don't want to work through it on Christmas day because which sane person does? Although this Christmas will be different due to mom being in the hospital and all but I'll make it work somehow.
°°°Later that day°°°
I was watching a christmas movie marathon when I heard a knock on my door. I grabbed a hold of the plastic ornament on the table near the coat rack. I mean I wasn't expecting someone and this is the perfect scenario from a horror movie: a girl home alone, the doorbell rings, she opens the door and a serial killer just kills her. The end.
I cautiously walked towards the door and internally cursed because we don't have a peep hole. I quickly opened the door and swung the ornament towards the person's face. I heard a noise that sounded like a crack and then,
"ALLIOT!!!! MY NOSE!!!!"
As I now saw the person whom I just broke their nose, my face paled. Not from guilt but shock and... fear?
"Dad?"
