"I'll pick you up at eight in the morning."I nodded. "Sounds good."I threw a quick glance at Flynn who was half asleep half-awake in the chair before I headed out. During my presentation I'd done that too, throwing quick glances at him. Even when he had a hangover his eyes shined so impossibly blue like there was a sky trapped behind his pupils...........It was a beautiful day in New York City. I was planning to go on a little shopping spree today, but Ethan, one of my closest friends from university, texted me a while ago asking if I was able to join him for lunch. Of course I replied with a yes, since I haven't seen him in a while. He went back to Germany after graduation, because of an internship he got.I drove to the address Ethan had texted me and I ended up at this place called Margon. I had never eaten here before. I grabbed a small mirror out of my bag and fixed my makeup and hair before getting out of the car.Margon, was a small restaurant, far from where I'm used to ea
"I told her." Ximena chimed in. "And you know what she told me? She can eat anything she wants and still have that figure."Ellie stared at me agape. "You're kidding me.""Nope." Ximena answered."Damn girl, I'm low-key jealous!""You should be" We all turned around to look at Flynn."Excuse me?" I said confused, I'm pretty sure I haven't heard him right."I said she should be jealous of your body. It's perfect." he repeated nonchalantly.If my heart could jump out of my chest, it would happen right now. Did the Flynn Vasilios just compliment me? I was frozen in spot, trying to process his compliment. Ximena was the first one who said something."Do I smell love in the air?"This time I turned my head at Ximena and glared at her. Really? From all the things she could've said, that's what she came up with?Flynn coughed at the question of Ximena and turned his head to his right. "Martini, Rodrigo?" he asked instead, looking at his best friend.Rodrigo nodded. "Yeah, yeah Martini."And
I nodded my head. "Yes totally, it's beautiful up here.""It is." he agreed. We talked for a while, but then he had to proceed to walk towards a table behind me to greet more people.I decided to get something to drink at the bar, but halfway I got stopped by the trio that walked out of the elevator.Flynn, Rodrigo, and Ellie."Jill!" Ellie squealed as she ran up to me. The pink lace dress she was wearing hugged all her curves in the right places. No doubt that she will steal the spotlight from Ximena tonight.She hugged me tightly and when she released me I saw Rodrigo and Flynn behind her watching us with an amused expression plastered on their face."Hello Rodrigo." I hugged him and he chuckled. Rodrigo is cute, I have to admit. That boy has the looks, but since the first time I'd met him it was clear that he didn't see me as more than a friend."Nice to meet you again pretty lady." He replied chuckling.I released myself out of his hug and saw Flynn silently glaring at him. I rais
The reason of the break up? He said that he couldn't do long distance. I got a scholarship to study in the USA and he got one to study in Switzerland. He didn't even want to try.The most painful thing about the breakup? I wasted four years of my life on some loser, who not only broke up with me, but also had a secret relationship with a girl in Switzerland.During spring break of senior year he went to visit a college in Switzerland. When he came back, I knew that something was wrong because he became distant, but I didn't really care about it. It was senior year after all.On graduation day I saw an unfamiliar girl sitting with his parents. I assumed it was his cousin or family friend I haven't met yet. When his parents came to congratulate me, I felt that Mateo was getting uncomfortable next to me. He was shifting from his left feet to his right."What babe?" I asked as he was fidgeting nervously with his cap. "N-nothing." he stuttered.When the unfamiliar girl next to his parents
Jill Malik P.O.V"Did you already come up with a name for my eyeshadow palette?" Ximena asked as I took a seat across her in her office. She looked like she didn't have a good night sleep in days.I shook my head as I took a sip of my coffee. It was dark, bitter, and hot. It totally matches my soul. "I'm stuck between Wildest Dream and Dangerous love.""Those are actually really good. I like wildest dream.""You do? I like that one too." I said relieved. I was actually happy that she likes the name, because I was running out of time, patience, and names. "How's wedding planning going."She sighed, as she propped her elbows on the table and rested her head on her hand. "It's going great, there's just so much to do in such a short time.""I bet there is. The engagement party two weeks ago was so well planned; I don't think Blake will disappoint you on your wedding day."She nodded, but I could see emptiness in her eyes. "Yeah, he comes home late every night. I barely see him."So that's
"Yep, they were together in college, but broke up.""Oh. Makes sense, that guy was completely lost without her.""You know him?""Yes, a couple of months ago I met him at the billionaire club meeting and he was constantly talking about this girl named Reina.""Well, he did try to get back to her in college but she ignored him. I never really liked him, but I guess he's changed now.""Oh yeah he changed big time. Your friend has him wrapped around her finger."I laughed at that. We kept talking for a while, when I started to get tired. My eyes started to get heavy and Flynn noticed that."Here." he said as he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. I didn't have the energy to resist him anymore and I just let it be. It felt better like this."Sleep a little." he whispered before I closed my eyes and darkness consumed me...........I fluttered my eyelashes open and saw that I wasn't in a plane anymore. In fact I was now in a car."Well hello there sleeping beauty.
"That's okay, I hope you can make it this year though." Aunt Lydia threw some tomatoes, olives and salsa in the pan and poured the pineapple juice before putting the lid on it. "Mommy." I felt someone tugging on the bottom of my shirt. I looked down and saw my little rayo de sol. "Yes, mi amor." I cooed as I picked him up. I put him on the kitchen counter and watched what he was taking out of his pocket. It was his school report. I opened it and a smile crept on my face. "These are really good grades amor." "Yes mommy, can we go get ice cream after dinner?" he asked sweetly. Oh god, it's so hard to say no to his sweet voice. I laughed softly and kissed him on his nose. "Well, it's too late to get ice cream now. What about tomorrow?" He nodded eagerly. "Yes, muchas gracias." I was so happy he was learning spanish. Milan was enrolled in a private school where they teach in english. It was quite expensive, but I want to give him the best of the best, because he deserves it. At ho
I blushed. "You did Vasilios." He chuckled lightly. "So, about Milan huh." I gulped, here we go. "Uhm yeah about that. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about him earlier." "Him?" "Yeah, Milan right. My son." I clarified, air quoting son. "What?" Flynn asked confused. "That's what you want to know right. About Milan." "Yes, as in Milan the city." This time I was the one that look confused at him. "What? No, as in Milan the little boy who calls me mom." "His name is Milan?" he asked astonished. "I thought you had figured that out." "No, I thought you were talking about the city Milan." I shook my head, what the hell? "No, I was talking about my son, why would I talk about a city that you can easily google ?" "Shit! Why did you named him after a city? I thought you were talking about the one ni...Never mind. Why did you air quote son earlier?" he asked while shaking his head. I sighed deeply. "Because he's not my biological son." "What do you mean?" Flynn looked at me like a
