Chapter 3

Bianca

"Hi baby." I heard a familiar raspy voice say. I turned around and almost cried of shock.

It was Charles standing in my office with a banquet of roses. He walked closer to me.

"Charles?" I asked still not believing that he was in my office. I couldn't believe he was in America!

"Yes it's me. Bianca do you remember when I gave you pink roses?" He asked.

I nodded, smiling like a fool. It was when he asked me to be his girlfriend at the beach in England.

He smiled with me, handing me the roses. "These light pink roses show how much I adore you, my sweet Bianca. And these dark roses show how much I appreciate you, and Bianca, I just want you to let me show how much I appreciate you. I love you so much Bianca"

He took the roses out of my hands and placed them on my desk.

"Y-You love me?" I asked shocked.

"I've always loved you darling. I'm sorry didn't treat you that way."

"It's okay Charlie. I love you too." I said and kissed his cheek. Then I kissed his lips. I wanted to cry, I missed his lips so much. I love this man so much.

He pulled away from me, "I love you."

I jumped up out of my seat which caused someone to be afraid. I turned to my left and saw Anthony holding his chest. I must have scared him.

Wait so that was all a dream? None of that was real?

I sighed. I wish that was real.

"What's wrong?" Anthony asked glancing at me and then back at the road.

"Nothing. It's just.. are we almost at my party?" I asked avoiding the topic. I would never tell Anthony, the boy who has obvious feelings for me , that I was dreaming about getting back together with my ex-boyfriend.

"Were here." He pulled over in front of a house while smiling at me. I unbuckled my seat belt and before I could even open my door, Anthony was already there to open it for me. Anthony even held out his hand for me to help me get out.

"You're so sweet." I grasped his hand that held out and then used my other hand to cup his cheek once I stood up.

I already had on my African clothes. I would've loved to wear at least flats but since it is my birthday I decided to wear heels with it.

I walked a few feet from car when Anthony yelled out for me. "Wait! Where are you going without your tiara, princess?"

I turned around and grimaced. "No. That's so corny."

"Too bad." He chuckled putting it on my head. Once he was done he stared down at me for a few seconds. "You are so beautiful."

"Thank you." I grinned. I wished that I had felt butterflies when he said that. I wished that I liked him so I can get over Charles. It's been two years and i still haven't found any to replace the hole that Charles left.

He hooked his arm without mine as we walked up the steps. Anthony pushed open the door and everyone turned to look at me. I instantly became uncomfortable as all eyes landed on me.

Before I was even through the door people began to sing to me the birthday song.

"Thank you guys for coming. I really appreciate it." I said awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
