My future in your eyes

"Can I get everyone's attention!"

Note: Hi you all! This is my short story, and is set in an alternate universe.

I love writing long fics, but writing short tales is awesome too! ;)

With limited chapters, I'll try to make you feel for our beloved main characters. In this one, Ana is a Police Detective (homicide). Christian also has another profession. Which one? Well, let us find out. Shall we?

I really hope you enjoy reading this. I sure enjoyed writing it! :)

And don't forget to tell me what you think about chapter 1... Enjoy

Ana walked into her apartment, feeling horrible. She grabbed a bowl of ice cream and went to her bedroom. She kicked off of her dark brown leather boots and sat on her bed, eating the sweet stuff. Sighing deeply, her mind drifted off to Christian.

Even though she desperately fought the tears, they eventually rolled down her cheeks. He had rejected her! After all that they've been through, he rejected her. It took so much from her to open up and tell him that she wanted to be with him. And what does he do? He rejects her...

Frustrated, she put the bowl away and decided to freshen up. With a towel wrapped around her body, Ana walked out the bathroom, after the warm shower. Guess it all became too much for her heart to take, cause just as she was about to reach her closet, she sank to the floor and broke down.

Christian... She couldn't believe that they ended up this way. A gut wrenching pain gnawed at her heart and soul. She wanted to hate him! But... but she couldn't... she couldn't, because she truly and deeply loved the man...

Her heart wanted him and only him.

It didn't matter to her that he was a selfish prick who only contacted her, if he needed her. It didn't matter that his mom disliked her, because Ana was a simple girl who didn't have wealthy parents.

Christian came from old money, his great grandparents started their business a long time ago.

From the very start, he had told Ana that his job was the most important thing in his life, and that he wasn't the kind of man to give her the house with the white picket fence or kids... No, most definitely not the kids! Absolutely not...

However, all of that didn't matter to her.

She didn't care about all that, all she cared and wanted was him... just him.

Ana just wanted to be with Christian. Nothing more, and nothing less...

And there she was, confessing her love to him and he just... rejected her like everything they went through meant nothing!

Like she meant nothing to him. Jerk!

And the worst thing of all of this was that Christian picked his ex-girlfriend over her.

How could he?! That woman was the main reason Christian had thrown himself at his work five years ago! She was such a bitch, and yet as brilliant as Christian was, he was unable to see that.

If he wasn't so fucking successful in his profession, would she still want him? Would she still love him, if his family wasn't filthy rich?

"I doubt that" Ana remarked, the tone of her voice filled with venom and disgust.

She just was unable to understand Christian anymore...

At one point Ana let out a deep breath, and decided to stop torturing herself like this.
