When Dylan Black meets his long lost lover after 14 years things change. He is not the same 7 years old who will let go his girl this time. He is strong, powerfull and loving. But what happened 14 years ago will change everything.
For the revenge is...
A clear sense of deja vu hit me as soon as I opened my eyes. Me lying on very soft black sheets covered the bed, extravagant interiors, and black room, but not a dull one like the one I woke up earlier in.
This one seems more lively though. It had more colors, including mixed shades of blue, sea green here and there.
I was tugged in so well, shoes off, hair all piled in a ponytail, my makeup all removed. This guy surely is a gentleman.
It had a homely feeling, and instantly I felt at ease. A mouthwatering smell of waffles hit me, and nothing feels better than eating after a long sleep. I stretched my body unwillingly.
This bed is so comfy. What is up with me lately, Feeling beds more comfortable was never my thing. I quickly tiptoed to the door on my right, which I am assuming is the washroom, to fix myself. My dress was torn, so it left me with the only choice to wear the black shirt laid on the side couch set. Not bad. It smells so delicious.
I followed the smell, which led me to a modern looking kitchen. It was more of a penthouse. A very beautiful and expensive penthouse.
This is definitely a good view. A man, or I might say a hulk, in nothing but lowly hung sweatpants, so well defined back muscles, ripped muscles. He must work out a lot to get this good body.
My eyes met his, an arrogant smile on his face. Geez, did I say that out loud. Oh, guess I did. Duh. I know him. Oh my god! Ashton! How come.. He came closer to me, inspected my face, and hugged me.
"Ashton, I can not breathe," I said in between my long intakes "Oh god, Claire, what do you think of yourself dressed like that in a night club all alone, You know how dangerous it could be. That man! God Claire. Act mature."
"Hey, hey calm down. I was with my friends. I am fine. I am"
He gave out a long sigh and went back to cooking. "You can keep it, you know. It looks good on you," he winked "What"
I followed his line of vision, which was on the shirt I was wearing. I blushed and averted my eyes from his.
In no time he placed a plate full of waffles, neatly cut fruits, bacon and some orange juice. My taste buds danced and I involuntarily moaned out loud.
I heard light laughter in there. I saw Ashton quietly chuckling; I couldn't stop myself from laughing along.
"You cook so well," I told him. He smiled in return, a genuine smile. I might add. I smiled back and continued feasting. There were so many questions, but they can wait for now.
It was after we were done with breakfast and dishes that we heard the doorbell. There stood a girl in her late 20's with a peach and white bag in her hand. I did not want to intrude, so I left them to talk and lay back on the couch.
"Here. It's for you," Ashton extended the bag towards me. I dumbfoundedly looked at the accessories in the bag.
A beautiful pink-colored dress with red and pink flower printing. "I thought you would need a dress. You know. Since. It's okay if you don't like it. We can get a new one. Let me get my car keys."
He was about to go when I held his wrist and hugged him so tight. What is all this with hugs today? I let go of him.
"It's beautiful. I absolutely love it. I was just so indulged. I am sorry. Hey, thank you so much." I looked him in the eye. So much intensity, compassion, honestly. God, this guy is something else. As if he was so vulnerable right now. His eyes diverted to my lips. His hand found its way around my waist.
His lips started descending towards mine at such a slow pace as if he was afraid that I would push back. "Ashton. Don't hold yourself back, please, not now." He was about to kiss me. I could feel his mint breath over my lips mixed with choco-chips. I intake as much as I could...
Just as my lips were about to touch his, my phone went off.. Bummer. He spoke something on the trail of 'bad timing, you little piece of shit.' I acted like I didn't hear that. "I will take it," I said and trailed towards his room.
My eyes grew wide at what I saw—21 missed calls since last night and so many texts, all from Candy and Sandy.
I called Candy immediately. She picked on the very first ring. "God, Claire, where the hell are you? Do you have any fu**ing idea about what just happened. I need you, like right now, please come here soon
She almost cried over the phone while pleading.
I panicked "Hey, calm down, tell me what happened."
"Sandy, she is in hospital." My mind went blank and I fell only to be held by two strong arms I know belong to none other than Ashton.
Ashton took the phone from my hands and talked, noting hospital address or something. My mind went blank and all I could hear was engine roaring and vehicles passing by and in no time the hospital was in front of me.
Candy and Sandy were more like my sisters than friends. They were my family. We practically live together all the time. It is my fault. I shouldn't have let them go to that party in the first place...
I took the left hallway as instructed by the nurse. I practically ran with Ashton, following closely behind. I saw candy running towards me and we cried for God knows how long, hugging each other.
