Chapter 7 - Unexpected news

[AS ALWAYS, NOT EDITED ]

Cara's POV

"I couldn't sleep without you."

It hurts.

It shouldn't but it hurts so damn much.

You have to get used to it. Alex, you have to get used to continue your whole life without me, not just sleeping.

I turned myself in his arms so i can see his face, "Ale-"

He raised an eyebrow and directly interrupted me, "We'll discuss it in the morning." He said, "Go back to sleep now."

I didn't have the energy in me to argue, so i just nodded and turned around. His hand around me touching my baby bump, I placed mine over his and held it as i closed my eyes and tried to have one last peaceful sleep.

The morning came faster than it should, i opened my eyes slightly then closed them when the morning light hit me, i blinked and opened them again.

I placed my hand under my face as my gaze traveled to Alex beside me.

He was awake, his eyes glaring at my belly.

Yes, glaring.

He looked at me with an annoyed expression, "Why she is moving in the freaking morning ?" He said, his voice still hoarse from sleeping.

"She woke me up." He said and shot another glare toward my belly.

I chuckled lightly at how he looks so serious, i shook my head, "How did she wake you ?"

"I felt something poking my stomach." He said, his eyes narrowed, "If she keep doing that, i am making you sleep on the couch."

I chuckled and inched a bit more closer, "You are crazy." I said as i rested my head over his chest feeling the steady beats of his heart.

He placed his hand over my hair and gently stroked it, i closed my eyes and let out a breath.

My baby girl moved again, my lips pulled up in a smile as i heard Alex letting out a sigh, "Oh my f*ck." He muttered with an irritated tone.

And then it hit me, i pulled away from Alex and met his eyes, "We didn't decide what we gonna name her." I said. It totally skipped my mind.

His eyebrows pulled together, "Oh shit yeah, we have to name her." He said as he tried to sit down.

I sat down as well as i tried to think it through, "I don't have any name in mind." I said. I really can't think of a name.

"Neither do i." Alex said, he pursed his lips and looked like he is thinking about it as well. He then broke into a smile, "Can't we name her Katherine." He said.

I chuckled, "You really do love Katherine." I said and shook my head.

He smiled, "Yeah." He placed his hands behind his head, "She is my sweetheart."

I smiled at that, because a sound in my head whispered --that Katherine will definitely take care of him when i go. I believed in that, and it made me a bit more comfortable. He won't be alone. He definitely won't.

I looked back at him, "Alex, you know i am going tomorrow, right ?" I said, we didn't close that subject yet. Last night, he was all against it, i just wanted to make sure.

At my words, his smile faded, he shot me a glare and looked away, "Didn't we solve that." He said.

"No we didn't." I said.

He let out a sigh, he looked back at me, "Just don't-" he said, his tone taking a more serious shade, "Don't go."

"It's just one week." I lied. I just don't want him to be mad at me before i go. I just want to convince him.

"Cara-"He said with a warning tone, "I am going no matter what." I said with a blank tone.

His jaw tightened a bit, "Why you want to go that much !" He exclaimed.

"I am here all fucking worried about you being alone and you're not even trying to listen to what i am saying !", He said, anger evident in his voice. And i hated it, i hated his anger.

"Let's close the subject." I said, "Because whenever we bring it up, we'll just fight again."

"So you're still going ?" He asked with a raised eyebrow, I just nodded as a response.

He didn't say anything, he just got off the bed looking so annoyed. Then he walked to the bathroom and closed the door behind him with a loud thud.

I took in a deep breath trying my best to not let any of these things affect me at the moment. It's my last day here, and i am not leaving him mad at me like this.

He went out of the bathroom and without glancing at my side, he went to the walk-in closet and started getting ready.

I walked behind him immediately, i saw him put his white dress shirt on, "You have work today ?" I asked.

"Yes." He said as he buttoned his shirt.

"Can you not go today." I added and bit my lip nervously, he looked at me for a second, "No." he blankly answered and looked away.

I swallowed the lump forming in my throat as i walked toward him, his gaze flicked to me as i took the tie from his hand and tried to fix it.

"Can you at least come back early?" I lifted my head and asked. He didn't answer as he just looked at me, even when his angry, his eyes, those brown eyes still hold this softness in them.

He nodded after a short while, "Okay." He said making me smile. I know he can't be mad for so long. I know how pure his heart is.

His mind, definitely not pure.Definitely.

But his heart is.

That's the difference between us.

When i can be cold, when i can pretend that nothing is affecting me, when i can harden my heart; he, on the other side, is the one who is warm, who won't lie about what he is feeling like me.

When i gave him just pieces of my heart, he didn't hesitate in giving me all of it.

He gave me all of his heart. And soon, i will break it.

I lightly pecked his lips and did what i am best at, pretending something i am not feeling, i smiled when my inside was screaming for me to listen.

I smiled and pretended that everything is okay.

That today is prefect.

And tomorrow will be.

That i am perfect. And everything is okay.

But he, he didn't have to pretend.

That's the thing about him.

He is perfect, just the way he is.

Alex's POV

Fūck me someone.

Please.

This meeting is so boring.

I am dying here.

It's all just dicks. All men. Ugh.

Definitely not my type of meetings. No boobs or whatsoever, what's fun in that.

I let out a sigh and placed my elbow over the table and rested my cheek over my palm as they kept on talking.

My gaze traveled to Ashton who was so engrossed in the conversation.

That bimbo. How can he do it.

I looked at the paper in front of me, and smiled proudly at the sketch i scribbled there.

I do have a talent, Don't i !

"Alex."

"Alex !"

I lifted my head up when i heard my name, weirdly enough, everyone's attention was on me while that bimbo was giving me i-will-fūck-you-later look.

Oh fūck shit. Don't ask me anything, don't ask me anything. I wasn't fucking listening. Don't ask me. Don-

"So what do you think?"

FUCK.

One of the men asked as he gave me a bored look.What was his name. Was it Rick ?

No, he doesn't look like a Rick.

He looks more like a prick.

Good one, good one Alex.

I patted myself proudly on the back but that Rick gave me a dirty look that made me snap out of my daze again.

Tell him not to look at me like that.

He cleared his throat looking annoyed. Everyone's eyes were just on me.

Damn they're still waiting for me to answer, for fūck's sake, i feel i am in high school all over again.

I looked at that bimbo for help who just shot me glare in return and mouthed -i will kill you.

Talk about a friend in need ha?

Pfft. That bimbo. No benefit from him.

I straightened my shoulders and cleared my throat trying to look more professional, i held the paper in front of me pretending i am thinking about whatever they asked.

But the sketch drown at the edge just made me smile again, if i add a-

ALEX.

What?

CONCENTRATE.

"So do you agree ?" That Rick Prick added as he flipped the pen in his hand looking irritated as fūck.

Damn. Just say anything. Any-fūcking-thing.

"Yeah- uh- i think it's a good idea." I said hesitantly. For all i know, they were discussing cutting my dīck and i just agreed on it.

I told you just fūck me.

That's the only thing i am good at.

GOOD JOB ALEX. GOOD JOB.

My inner mature Alex scolded me. I can imagine him giving me the dirtiest look and shaking his head while placing his hands over his hips.

Haha- he is so cute.

I imagine him so small, you know, a mini me.

Wouldn't that be the cutest thing ever.

I would hold him around in my pocket.

I almost laughed loud, i liked the idea. A mini me, with a mini dick.

You k-

NOT THAT MY DICK IS MINI OR ANYTHING.

I mean just the small version of me would, you know hav-

Okay you got what i mean. No need to elaborate more.

ALEX !

Okay okay. Damn, mini Alex can be scary sometimes.

I think i gave them a good response because they looked satisfied as they continued discussing whatever that thing is.

Remind me to check with that bimbo about what they asked me later.

I couldn't be happier when they all stood up. Phew.

Fi-fūcking-nally.

Alex, that's not even a word.

I know. I am just so creative.

That Rick Prick shook hands with Ashton and with me, they said something I didn't understand because I wasn't listening, and then all headed out of the conference room.

Ashton turned around and was about to say something, probably scold me or something.

"Don't start !" I said as i raised my hand in surrender.

"If you want me to concentrate in a meeting, bring few women." I added in a matter of fact tone, "You know me, some hot women, with some boobs, add few asses- i may pay attention then."

My gaze traveled to Ashton's assistant, "No offense Lele." I said with a wink. She gave me a small fake smile in return.

I know she hates me. I always pick on her.

I can be such a child sometime.

TRUE. SO TRUE.

Shut up mini Alex. Small, but he have a loud voice.

That bimbo just shook his head annoyed, his assistant started collecting the paper placed on the table.

She took mine, my lips twitched in a smirk as i pointed at the sketch i drew there.

Her eyebrows pulled together. She looked like she didn't understand it. Damn, can she be any more naive.

"You're so stupid." I said with a sigh and rolled my eyes. Ashton walked toward us with a curious look, his eyes went to the sketch.

His face grimaced, his eyes flicked to me again, "Just leave." He said annoyed.

I chuckled, "You have to admit, i am pretty good with porn sketches." I said with a confident smile as i walked out of the room.

I heard him curse something behind me. My smile just grew wider.

I seriously love making them angry.

YOU ARE SO ANNOYING.

Thanks for supporting me, mini Alex. Thank you. Notice the sarcasm please.

I suddenly stopped walking and turned around making Ashton collide with me, "Fūck." He cursed again.

"Okay i know you love me and all but there is no need to go all touchy on me." I said faking a disgusted look as i pushed him away.

"Btw.", i said, "That means by the way, i know your knowledge is limited so, btw, i am leaving now."

"We still have work to-"

"I am not taking your opinion." I said with a raised eyebrow, "I am just telling you."

"Laters, bimbo." I said as i turned around and made my way out of the company.

Time to go home.

I need a kiss. Or a good fūck, from my wife dearest.

A genuine smile made its way to my lips. Best part of the day.

Going back home. Knowing there is someone waiting there. I never thought it would feel this much good.

Damn, that was corny. Meh, it's okay.

I just don't want her to go tomorrow. I'll try to convince her not to.

Time to use my irresistible charm.

I can see mini Alex glaring at me now.Fuck off mini Alex- it's not your time.

I parked the car and went down, unlocking the door, i entered.

The light sound of classical music playing in the house grabbed my attention. I walked further inside searching for my cupcakes.

I passed by the dining room, i stopped when i saw the table prepared, with candles, wine and all.

My lips twitched in a smirk. Someone is getting laid tonight.

I walked toward the kitchen, my smirk changed into a smile, I crossed my arms over my chest as i laid on the door frame watching my beautiful cupcakes.

She was busy getting the food ready, she didn't notice me yet.

I couldn't help but notice that she is kind of overdressed, wearing a black dress making her look sexy as sin.

That asś looks so fūcking good in this dress. I couldn't help but stand there and admire.

I licked my lips as my gaze traveled to her face, and that red lipstick made my dick twitch in my pants.

I internally groaned. Calm down big boy. All in good time. All in good time.

She have this come-fūck-me-now look. She tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and lightly bit her lip. Oh damn fūck shit. Calm down big boy, calm for now, don't worry, because someone is going to be sweetly deliciously fūcked tonight.

Cara's eyes flicked from the task in her hand to me, she gasped and her eyes widened a bit, "Damn Alex, stop creeping me out like this."She said with a glare, and all i think about is how to get that dress off her and take her right here right now.

I hummed as i walked closer toward her, the smirk still imprinted over my lips. She narrowed her eyes suspecting my next move but i gave her no time as i yanked her waist toward me and took her delicious fūckable lips in mine.

My hand traveled from over her cheek, to her neck, to her shoulder and down her arm. She shivered from my light touch.

My tongue delved inside her mouth, tasting every bit of her. I nibbled on her lower lip gaining a low moan from her.

I smiled against her lips and felt her body going week in my embrace.

I loved it. The effect i have over her.

And i know, she love it too. The effect she have over me. She makes me lose my mind. She knows that. Even my big boy- he loses control when around her and tends to embarrass me. Like yesterday for example.

I kissed the corner of her lips and her chin before i pulled away. I opened my eyes and took a much needed breath.

She opened her eyes as well, she bit her lip and looked at me, the look in her eyes just made my dīck harden more. Tell her to stop tempting me like this, my poor dīck would have a heart attack later.

"How can you be so fūcking beautiful." I said, my voice came hoarse.

She smiled at my words, her gaze dropped down and I couldn't help but notice the weird look in her eyes, it's almost -pained.

And it caused a weird ache in my chest. I hated it.

I cupped her face in my hands and forced her to meet my eyes. The smile still on her face but her eyes told me another story.

"Cupcakes-" i said, "Tell me what's wrong." I demanded. I can feel it, there is something not right.

She shook her head, "Nothing is wrong." She said, her smile so beautiful, sinfully innocent, "It's all perfect."

Her hands traveled to my face, she gently stroked my jaw, her eyes met mine in an intense gaze, "I love you Alex."

I felt her words.

I didn't just hear them.

I felt the need in them.

I sucked in a breath and took her hand in mine, bringing it to my lips i kissed it, "As much as i would like to rip this dress off you but-" i said as i raised an eyebrow, "I like it on you."

She smiled, and i felt it hitting something in my heart. I would die if i ever lost this smile.

"But the food." She hesitantly said.

"Oh believe me, you gonna forget what food is after this." I said, i then inched my lips toward her ear, "Turn around." I demanded and she did as she was told to.

I removed her hair from over her back, my hand slowly unzipped her dress. My lips left warm kisses over neck as my fingers traced the length of her bare spine.

Her soft silky skin felt so good under my touch, i wanted her, all of her, every single part of her.

My hand slowly traveled to her shoulder, it lingered for a while over her skin, i felt her body tremble a bit as i slowly slid down the strap of the dress making it drop on the floor.

A weird urge of possessiveness stroke over my inside, my hand grabbed her bare skin and pulled her closer, my lips touching her ear, I whispered, "You're mine."

I felt the shiver that went through her body, she nodded, agreeing with me, my smile came back as she muttered the next words.

"And i'll always be."

Cara's POV

I didn't sleep at all.

I packed my suitcase taking just few outfits and some necessary stuffs. Then, I just sat there looking at Alex's cute sleeping face like a total creep.

I didn't cry though.

I am teaching myself not to.

I keep telling myself it's for the best. His best. Their best.

It's a lie. I know.

It doesn't matter anymore. There is no turning back.

I let out a breath as i gently stroked Alex's hair. He always says he likes it when i play with his hair.

Weirdo. My weirdo thought.

At that thought, his words from before rang in my ears again.

"You're mine."

True.

I am his. And i will always be. I won't let anything change that.

Never. No matter what.

I lightly pressed my lips over his cheek and took in his scent.

I still, I didn't cry. I smiled, glad by the fact that at a stage of my life i was loved by this man, i was loved for the person i am, i was appreciated, i was important, and i was happy.

Alex groaned lowly as he shifted in his sleep, his eyes slowly slid open, he blinked then opened them again.

His sleepy eyes met mine and i smiled, "Why you're awake?" He said as a yawn escaped past his lips.

"My plane is in two hours." I said and i hoped we won't argue again about it.

"I still don't want you to go." He said, but his tone calm this time.

"So you won't give me a goodbye kiss." I said with a raised eyebrow. He shot me a glare and sat down on the bed, he rubbed his eyes, "I am taking you to the airport."

My smile dropped at that, "You don't have to."

It would be harder. Walking away with him there.

It would be similar to what happened to me before and I don't want to do it to him.

The memory afterwards would hurt.

He shot me another glare and stood up, "Shut up because i am taking you."

His tone showed there is no place for negotiation, so I didn't argue after.

He changed his clothes and drove me to the airport. The drive there was silent, none of us said anything and the tension in the car was obvious.

It's almost as if he knows i am not coming back.

I closed my eyes and tried to breath, but the way my throat is closing up is suffocating me leaving me gasping.

I am trying not to cry. But it's hard.

I can feel them in my eyes, threatening to fall. My brain in a war with my heart, both trying to dominate. To take over.

I opened my eyes when i felt the car slowing down.

We are here.We arrived. At that realization my heartbeats went out of control.

I directly stepped out of the car wanting to at least have a breath. I feel dizzy, i want to throw up.

Alex took my suitcase and started walking inside oblivious to what's happening inside me. I followed behind trying my best to hold myself and not break down for the time being.

When Alex stopped, i stopped.

He turned around, "I can't go anymore inside." He said and then when i noticed the security guys standing few meters away.

I gulped. This is it.

I looked at him. He is still mad and angry.

I inched closer and did what i should do. I hugged him.

He hugged me back.

None of us muttered a word.

Don't cry. Not now.

"I will miss you." I whispered. My voice low but my inside was screaming, don't let me leave, it was saying.

But it doesn't matter.

I pulled away, still no tears.

He tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, "Take care." He said, his eyes traveled to the screen behind me, "You should go now."

I don't want to go. I don't feel i am that strong.

I want to hear him saying let's go home. I want to go home.

"Goodbye." I said. He just nodded and took a step away from me.

No goodbye kiss. Nothing.

My heart squeezed tighter as i turned around. I closed my eyes as i slowly walked away.

With each step, i was starting to build the distance between us. I was starting to lose parts of me. 

I stopped when the security man asked for my passport. I handed it to him and turned my back to get one last look at him.

He was still standing there, his eyes met mine again, this time he gave me a small smile. I smiled in return.

The security handed me my passport again and let me inside. I turned away from Alex and walked.

Few steps and i stopped, when it me hard, i stopped.

I felt it piercing into my heart. The pain is unbearable. I clutched on the wall beside me as my breathing got heavier, my whole body started trembling and i let the first tear escape.

I covered my mouth with my hand when I realized what i am actually doing.

I looked through the glass wall, my eyes searched for him again. He stood there, his phone in his hand, he was typing something.

When he placed his phone in his pocket, my phone buzzed in mine.

Confused, i took it out and opened it to find a message from him.

"I don't want you to leave with you mad at me. I am sorry i am acting like a dīck. I am just scared. We've never been apart since we got married.

I love you cupcakes, take care of yourself and come back to me as quick as you can."

My heart swelled with pain, his words cut my heart more and i know this scar will be permanent.

The guilt i am feeling now is indescribable.

I shook my head and without sparing it a second thought, I turned around and i ran, i ran back to him.

To have a proper goodbye.

I didn't care about those i bumped into as i ran , i passed by the security guys and ran as fast i can, back to him.

I saw his back as he was walking away.

"Alex !" I said breathlessly.

He stopped and turned around, his eyebrows pulled together at my sight. My tears didn't stop as i ran again toward him, and once i was there, my arms wrapped around his neck and my lips pressed over his.

His hands directly went to my face as he kissed me back, he pulled me closer wrapping me in his warmth for one last time.

With the kiss, my mind couldn't help but recall everything we went through, all our times together, all the laughs, the cries, the chaos, the joy, and the love.

I felt his heartbeats because of how close we were. Can he hear my inside screaming as well. Can he hear me fighting myself so i can be able to leave him.

Does he know that I don't want to let go.

We pulled away, our foreheads pressed against each other. Our eyes staring at each other. Our hearts racing, and slowly breaking.

I hiccuped a sob, i was trying my best to suppress it inside. But it gave me in.

He placed his hand over my cheek wiping my tears away, "You're making me feel as if you're leaving forever."

I am.

More tears fell and i shook my head, i forced a weak smile, I sniffled, "You're right, it's just a week."

He nodded and smiled weakly as well, "I love you." He said, for some reason, his jaw tightened, "So much."

I hate you dad.

"I love you too." I whispered as more tears fell.

He pecked my lips and pulled away.

I smiled through my tears, "I should go."

"As much as i want to tell you not to go, but- you should, you gonna miss your flight." He said as he ran his hand in the loosened strand of my hair.

I nodded , i turned around and this time for real i walked away.

Goodbye Alex.

I will love you forever.

This time I didn't look back, i walked away as fast as i can, I didn't want to break again. I didn't want to lose myself again.

Once inside, i wiped my tears away, i closed my eyes and took in a deep breath.

It's time.

I turned the switch off, I shut my feelings down. I numbed myself. It's the only way to move on.

I opened them again, i wiped the left few tears and started walking further away.

He was there waiting for me.

My eyes met his and i felt nothing at all.

No anger, no rage or whatsoever.

It's better this way. I wonder how long i would handle it though.

"Time to go home." He said.

I chuckled in return. How stupid of him to say that.

As if he knows what home is.

"I don't have a home anymore."

And with that i did it.

We both walked inside the plane.

I did it.

I broke my promise.

*********************

One week later...

Katherine's POV ( A/N : it has been a while lol)

Where is Chase ?

The fūck-

Where is he?

I take it back when i said I can't wait to see him walking. I TAKE IT BACK.

I went to the bathroom for few minutes and i don't know where he disappeared.

I started panicking as I searched in most of the rooms and couldn't find him.

Oh my god, oh my god.

Breath in, breath out, breath i-

DON'T BREATH, JUST FŪCKING FIND YOUR SON.

I walked inside our bedroom, "Chase !" I said, "Baby where are you ?"

Oh my god, oh my god.

I walked out of it and looked around, my eyes landed on Ashton's study room, the door was slightly opened, my eyes widened and I directly rushed inside.

My heart calmed when i saw him there. But when i saw what he was doing i started panicking again.

All Ashton's files were scattered on the ground, some papers were ripped, some had some random scribbled things on them.

Chase's eyes went from the paper in his hands to me, he giggled as he ripped the paper in his hand.

My heart-

I can't take more of this.

"Dadda." He said looking at me with a big smile.

If he just wasn't so damn cute.

"Dadda is going to kill you little boy." I said and shook my head, "And he is going to kill me too."

"Next time, you're going with me to the bathroom." I said with a sigh, i knelt down and took him in my arms. I looked at the mess again and let out a fake cry.

I am so dead.

"Let's go. Grandma is going to come, you will sit with her as i clean the mess you did." I said and he started clapping his hand, "Ma ! Ma !" He said. That's what he calls her. His creative ways of making names.

After Ashton's mother came, i tried- and by tried i mean failed- to fix whatever my little son did.

Let's hope Ashton doesn't kill me. Let's all hope for that.

The ringing of my phone snapped me from my thoughts. I took it from beside me and answered.

"Hey Car." I said.

"Hey." She replied back and didn't complain about me calling her Car. Weird.

"How are you ?" I asked as i placed the non-ruined files again on the desk.

"I am fine." She said, "And you?"

"Well, trying to stay sane." I said with a sigh as i walked out of Ashton's study and locked the door behind me.

"Look, i talked with Alex and he sounded so sick on the phone, can you go check on him." She said with a worried tone.

"Aww you're worried about your lover boy." I said teasingly.

"Shut up." She replied back annoyed.

I chuckled, "Yeah sure, Ashton's mother is here, i can leave Chase with her and i will go check on him."

"Should i make him my special chicken soup." I added.

"No please don't poison my husband." She said with a sigh.

"Shut up." It was my turn to shut her.

"And Katherine-" she said, her tone kind of weird.

"Take care of him." She added.

My eyebrows pulled together, "Yeah sure." I said, "Wait, aren't you coming today, it has been a week right ?"

"Uh- yeah." She said and i still can't shake off her weird tone.

"When is your flight ?" I asked.

There was a pause.

"In an hour." She replied.

"Okayz." I said, "I will go now and check on him, don't worry."

"Thank you." She said. I wonder if there is something wrong, she sounds weird.

"Shut up." It was my time again to shut her. She is thanking me as if we're foreigners or something. That bītch, she needs some kick asś when she comes.

There was another weird pause.

"And Katherine-" she added again.

"Will you stop And-ining me." I said faking annoyance.

"Take care of yourself." She said, her tone now sad.

"You make me feel as if I won't see you forever." I added and rolled my eyes then remembered she can't see me, "You're coming today."

"Yeah." She simply said.

"I love you." She added, my eyes widened a bit, since when she confesses her love for me.

"I knew you would finally admit it." I said with a confident tone.

She chuckled lightly, "I love you too Car." I said, "See ya."

"See you." She said and with that we hanged up.

I didn't waste time after, I changed my clothes and drove toward their home.

I rang the bell, once, twice, thrice but no one opened, "Alex ! " i said with a loud voice then rang the bell again.

I heard footsteps nearing before the door opened, and there he is, standing with his glory and-

"OH GOD !" I said annoyed and i covered my eyes, "GO WEAR SOME CLOTHES."

He opened the door just with the boxer briefs on. Ugh Alex.

I heard him chuckle, "Why ? Am I tempting you ?" I can hear the smirk in his tone. I seriously can.

I removed my hand from over my eyes and shot him a glare. He just leaned against the doorframe, the smirk plastered over his lips.

His hair was all messed up, and his face taking a shade of red, his eyes looks tired and his voice sounded different. He looks like he is sick.

But still a pervert nevertheless.

"You know Cara is not here." He said and raised an eyebrow, "Did you come to seduce me ?"

I shot him another glare, "She said you're sick so i came to check on you." I said as i pushed him inside and entered the house as well.

But when my hand touched his skin i felt how hot he is. Oh my god.

"Oh my god, you're so hot !" I said, my eyes widened a bit.

"I know." He said, and if possible his smirk grew bigger, "All girls tell me that, you're not the first."

I huffed. This little- ugh.

"I mean you have a fever." I said again, more clearly.

He stretched his arms lazily, "Yeah, i think i will survive." He said mockingly.

"No you should take a fever-reducing medicine and then take a warm shower, we should decrease your temperature, it's not good." I said , "Come on go lay down, you should rest."

"And put some clothes on for god's sake." I added with an annoyed tone as he lazily walked in front of me.

He slumped on the bed and I started searching for some Advil pills or anything to help reducing the temperature down but I couldn't find any.

I bent down to see the other drawers, i opened them but found nothing there as well.

"That aśs though." Alex commented from behind me and let out a low whistle.

I directly straightened up, i turned around and gritted my teeth, i searched for something beside me to throw at him, i took a pillow and threw it. He chuckled and ducked away.

Pervert.

I walked closer to him, "Don't hit me." He said with a frightened tone and backed away.

I shook my head, "I want to see how bad your fever is." I said as I placed my hand over his forehead. He is burning.

"I will go get some ice and find a some pills or anything." I said, "And i will prepare you a warm soup, it will help as well."

"Shouldn't my cupcakes be here by now ?" He asked with a pout.

"Her flight is now." I said, "She'll be here soon."

He nodded and closed his eyes looking drained of any energy.

I stayed for two hours at Alex's place, i made him a chicken soup- which was pretty good- clap clap for me.

He then took some medicines and went to take a shower afterwards.

His temperature decreased which is good. He said he is feeling better.

I sat in the living room and turned on the TV, i started flipping through the channels trying to find something to watch until he finishes.

The sound of a phone ringing made me stop, i looked around searching for the source of the voice.

I saw Alex's phone placed on the table, "Alex !" I said with a loud voice, "Your phone is ringing."

"Answer it." He replied back, "I am coming."

I took the phone in my hands, unsaved number flashed through the screen, without thinking it through i pressed the answer button.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hello, is this Alex Warren's phone number ?" The man on the other side said.

"Yes it is." I said as i looked to see if Alex came or not, "I can take a message."

"It's about his wife." The man said startling me.

My eyebrows furrowed in confusion, "What about her?" I asked curious.

The man started talking but nothing made sense.

My eyes traveled to the TV screen, it was the news channel.

My eyes widened as my ears tried to register what i am hearing and my eyes tried to make sense of what i am reading.

I parted my lips to say something, Anything, but I couldn't-

No-

Oh my god. N-noo.

"Who is it ?" Alex's voice from behind me made me turn around immediately.

The phone still over my ear, but i tuned off whatever he is saying.

Alex's eyebrows pulled together as my eyes met his, "What's wrong ?" He asked, my face probably said it all.

I can't feel my heart. Oh my god, no.

I can't feel my whole body.

My legs are shaking. I need to- i-

The phone slipped from my hand and fell on the ground with a loud thud, or that how i heard it.

"Katherine !" Alex said in alarm as i felt my knees giving up.

He directly launched forward, his hand circled around my waist preventing me from falling.

He looked at me with wide eyes, "What's wrong?" He asked worried, "You're scaring me."

I shook my head as one tear scrolled down my cheek.

"No." I whispered.

I am still in shock.

This is- is a dream. I am sure. It is a-

"What ?" He asked again.

"The plane-" i started, my voice shaking, "The plane Cara was on."

"It c-crashed."
