Xavier decided to grace is with his presence
"Hey " he said as he sat close to me
"Where have you been" I said as I noticed the hickeys on his neck
"Nothing just handling business" he leaned to me but I pushed him slightly
"Hmm ok" I said as I turned to kelvin
"So what are you planning on doing for your birthday" I asked excited
"I don't really know" he frowned
"Why, I can help you set something"
"That day just brings back bad memories"
"I lost my family that day" he continued
"I'm so sorry" I hugged him
"It's okay sis at least I have you" he smiled
"So Nathan when are we going home" I heard Athena ask Nathan
"Soon"he said as she leaned him to kiss him
My vision started to get blurry,I whispered to kelvin that I need to step outside,I turned and saw Nathan push her slightly as her lips brushed his then he gave me a sympathetic look
I couldn't take it anymore,I needed to breath. I saw a bench outside,I let the tears fall as I sat down then I heard a voice
"What's going on Crystal" Susan said
"Nothing I just remembered something" I shrugged
"You know I was once like you,stuck between two guys"
"Really"
"Yes but I followed my heart"
"I don't know what to do anymore"
"Everything is going to be fine sweetie" she hugged me
"Nathan loves you,you know" she said as my jaw dropped
"I'm sorry I didn't want you to find out like this. It just happened" I tried explaining
"I know enough dear"she said
"And you are okay with it" I asked
"Of course dear,we and your parents put yours and Xavier's interest into consideration. So the contract will be valid if you love each other not for business"
I couldn't contain my happiness as I hugged her and thanked her repeatedly
"I have to go set the table now, do you mind helping me"
"Not at all Susan" I said as I followed her to set the table
We were all seated at the dinning table, different delicacy were made as we all ate till our stomach was full. It was time to leave, I thanked Susan and Jerry for the meal and walked towards the door as someone dragged me into a room
"Baby I'm sorry" I knew who it was already
"You don't have to be" I said
"I do,I just didn't want people to judge you when I won't be able to hold myself and kiss you" he said as I looked in his eyes and saw sincerity
"So you think making out with her helped the case" I said as I walked toward the door
"You have to believe me,I don't even have anything with her. I can't take you ignoring me anymore, I love you and you know I would always choose you" he explained
"I don't care you have made your choice and so have i" I said as I left
