"You sure about this, sugar? We can always have a private session at home. The playroom is big enough", Jack asked Meghan as they walked into the club.She reached up and kissed him."I'm okay, Jack. This is your world and I want to make it mine too. Besides, I don't want to take you away from your friends"Jack looked at her, love shining in his eyes.To him, Meghan was the only person in the club."Hey, man. Congratulations", Caleb slapped him on the back." Yeah, congrats on getting engaged. Seems like we have two open spots now", Luke said" Don't you fucking dare", Caleb and Jack growled."Chill out. I was only kidding. Do your partners know that they are keeping tigers at home? "Meghan patted Jack's chest." Of course I do. I just make sure I give him his meal on time", she said and winked at Luke." Ouu. Lucky guy"

"God, you're goddamn beautiful. You are like an angel, a fairy, a goddess", Meghan gushed as Juliet stood in front of the mirror, her eyes misting over."I'm not gonna cry. I'm not gonna cry. It's my big day and I'm supposed to be happy", Juliet repeated those words like a mantra." You can cry all you want, love. They are happy tears and besides, your mascara is waterproof", Meghan told her." What about the rest of the makeup? Leo's mom brought her own makeup artist all the way here to do it", Juliet asked, worried." Alright, fine. You have a point. Don't cry. Let me do all the crying, okay?"" Do you know how much tears I want to cry? "" A thousand bucket full?"" Maybe two", Juliet wiped her eyes with a tissue before her tears could trickle down her face."Leo is going to be dumbstruck when he sees you. You make me want to be a bride

"You look absolutely stunning, Juliet. No one's gonna bite you or anything, calm down", Meghan tried to reassure her friend for the umpteenth time that evening.They were about to go for the rehearsal dinner and Juliet's nerves had been all over the place."I know, I know. I just can't help thinking I'm going to screw this up somehow", Juliet answered her." You're not going to screw up, Jules. You have planned this all down to the letter. You'll be okay, I'm sure. We don't want you looking all stressed now, do we?"" No, we don't. I'll be fine in a moment", Juliet said, smoothing invisible wrinkles on her gown.She was wearing a pale blue gown that seemed to shimmer in the evening sky.Teardrop midnight blue earrings shine from her ears and her hair fell down in tinted cascade of waves.She had finished the look off with a plain gold necklace and black heels.Me

"Earth to Jack, Jack to earth" brought Jack out of his reverie." Man, you have it really bad, don't you? ", Nathan said, shaking his head in pity." Have what?", Jake was confused " I don't have the flu""Oh, not the flu. You have the love bug and it's eating you up", Nathan corrected him, laughing.Jack had accepted the offer to hand out with the guys after he had spent the whole day, trying to create a single document that normally took him two hours tops."I do not have the love bug", he denied."It's in your eyes man, I can see it all too clearly. You're thinking about someone every time you stare into non-existent space", Nathan told him.It was true. He had been thinking about Meghan. What was she doing in Paris, who was she with, was she hanging with another guy, laughing their heads off?Although he would not admit it to Jake, he had to admit

This is a flash back to Jack and Anna's story."I made a promise that I wasn't going back there and I wouldn't have done it, Anna. But I owed it to Micheal.He did a lot for me when I had no place to turn to.I'm fucking sorry, I swear", Jack was pleading with Anna, the boxes they had packed on their king bed."I begged you for one simple thing. One simple thing, Jack. Did I ask you for anything else? I did not. I only begged you to stay away. Let me give you another way to heal.Another way to express yourself but... " Anna replied him, rage in her eyes, tears shinning.Jack felt his heart sink.Hurting her was something he had sworn that he would never do. She had helped him, slowly and patiently brought him out of the miserable place he was.Begged for only thing and he couldn't give her.But how was he going to explain to her that he owed Micheal part of him? Hal

Jack walked into his library and looked at the sofa for the third time that morning.Part of him, although he clearly knew that it was impossible, hoped that the second or third time he came in, he would see Meghan there.See her poring over the papers, reading with some much concentration, a smile forming on her face from time to time.He had caught glimpses of her, while she had been unaware.There were some days he had walked up to the door, his fist poised to knock but had settled for watching her through the slightly opened door.Meghan was something else, something he didn't understand. She was better than he deserved. She gave, her time and emotions to her friends.She approached life more freely than she did.How had she gone and fallen in love with someone like him.For him, she was like a burst of fresh air. Like salvation, healing if he wanted to be honest.He had allowed her to com

Sarah walked into her boss's office with the written report edited and ready to be published.After going out with Micheal the previous night, she had settled down on it, feeling as though she could now finally do it without the thought of Handel occupying her mind in the most unhealthy way.She had focused on Micheal, how nice he had been during dinner, funny and absolutely down to earth. He had none of the sophisticated charm Handel had shown but he was okay, all the same.She had also agreed to see him again although she wasn't sure if anything would happen between them both. They seemed to strike off as two good friends.She knocked on the door and walked in."Sir, I have the report ready for publishing as soon as possible"Her boss spared her a glance and beckoned on her to sit.Sarah was surprised. Her boss had never done something like this. He preferred people standing while he sat, some so

"I am only going because you are such a nag”, Sarah crossed her arms, staring at Pierce.“nope. Yhou are doing this because you need to. Because I am not going to let you mope around like some wounded bear. You need to go out and find someone, Sarah”“I do not need someone. I need to work and sleep”, sarah replied stubbornly.“you have been doing that for a week. Taking up things that are none of your business, getting yourself all worked up and shit. You, love, need to relax”, Pierce told her.“I would have been if you haven’t suggested I hear Juan out. As it stands, you are the reason my brains is all muddled up. If I had not heard a word about the bullshit he had to say, I wouldn’t have to bury my nose in work to escape the what ifs. ““I said I was sorry, didn’t I? that is why I am trying to make it up to you, trying to give you a night out. Just go, have fun an

Handel walked into his parents house, a grim expression on his face, juan by his side. It was clear to anyone who saw him that the last place he wanted to be was here. It had been home to him for years brfore he knew what a home was supposed to be like.After he moved out, he barely came home. It was easier to be far away than nearer to his parents. Even now, he was here because there was a lot at stake. He had sacrificed a lot because of what he wanted and as much as he hated coming back, it was a little inconvenience compared to others.“are you sure you don’t want to back out now? I could give you the perfect cover”, juan said from beside him.“he is not going to believe a word of anything I say if it doesn’t go according to his plan. I’ll be fine. It’s all a matter of saying yes to whatever bullshit he spews and find a way to counteract it later”, Handel replied him.“alright. I think I should chip in a word or two too. What do you think?

"Okay, so what combination of drinks do you think I should get? I'm open to new things", Sarah propped her chin on her elbow and leaned across the bar."Let's leave mixture of drinks for now. Ever had a single malt?", Will asked her."Nope", Sarah replied him."What's your drink?""Uhm, vodka? A little bit of champagne and spiked fruit punch""Then you need a single malt Scotch whisky""And why is that?", Sarah leaned closer, a smile playing on her lips."Because it hits closer than home and because if we're talking about widening your selection of drinks, alcohol to be specific, we have to include that", he explained."Oh, well. I'd say, let me take your word for it but that'll be a cliche. You're after all a bartender and you know your stuff""All to well", Will replied her and took out a bottle."Now, I'm going to pour you

Meghan struggled to keep her expression neutral, her eyes revealing no emotion as she walked in to her boss's office the next day.If he was going to reprimand her for being late, she would take it face on, not simpering like a coward.She would not give him the satisfaction of seeing her falter or flinch."Sarah, step into my office", her boss said before she walked in through the open door."Yes, sir", she said curtly and walked in.When she walked in, she stood in front of his table, her arms folded."I never got the report from the interview""I just finished collating all the information, sir", she replied him.If she was to be honest with herself, she had deliberately put off doing any work on it.Despite what she wanted to believe or what she told Pierce, she was nowhere getting over Handel.Trying to piece about an article that stamped the

"How's Anna?""You wanna die, dude? Mention that name again", Handel snapped at his friend, looking up from the documents he had been poring over."She's your fiancee and I'm your best friend. I wonder why you haven't done the introductions", Juan grinned."She's not my fucking fiancee, stupid""And the blogs? The papers? The paparazzi?", Juan asked him."They can print all they fucking want. I'm going to figure out a way to stop all this nonsense", Handel told him."You know there's a lot hanging on this, right? Your future and all that. Plus, you've been getting new offers, courtesy of two industrial giants merging together", Juan informed him."I know that, damnit! I'm trying to do my best here.""You could get married to her and then get a divorce", Juan offered."She's never going to give me a divorce and you know it. She's pow
