Bailey Bolden
I wake up in his arms, we are still in his office and I'm still on his lap with the green blanket draped over us, my head resting on his chest as he was against his chair, I'm only in my bra and underwear, I kiss his chest feeling like I'm exactly where I need to be.
I sit up looking at him sleeping, I wonder if we could really work again? After everything he has proved himself yet I do wonder sometimes if it's just an act..
Does he truly mean everything he says?
I place my hand on his cheek softly, I wonder if I would be happier with him than I am right now, he has made it clear about how he feels..
so should I tell him I love him? Should I tell how desperate I need and want him? Would he believe me?
I get off him and place the blanket over him, I wouldn't want him to catch a cold. I throw on some clothes than I walk out the room and into the bathroom, I need a shower and a change of clothes after all the dancing and drinking I did with Paisley last night.
Yesterday was a long cruel day...
After my shower I get changed in bagy clothes and go downstairs to make some breakfast, it's six in the morning so everyone is most likely asleep.
I feel like baking today, maybe brownies? I walk into the kitchen and grab all the ingredients and utensils I needed.
Let's get baking!
_____________
I take the first batch out the oven and leave it to cool down as I place the second batch into the oven as a sleepy Millie walks into the kitchen rubbing her eyes with a yawn
"Good morning, princess." I said with a smile as looks up at me as her eyes scan the brownies on the stovetop
"What are you making?" She asked
"Brownies, would you like to help?" I asked as she nods her head and grabs a chair to stand on next to me as I make the last batch.
"Can I put lots and lots of sprinkles in this one?" She asked as I nod
"Of course, go crazy." I said as she grabs the rainbow and Chocolate sprinkles and pours them into the batter with lots of giggles as I smiled
"That looks so good Mil! Do you think that's enough?" I asked as she thinks for a moment
"There is no such thing as enough sprinkles! " She yells as I nod
"Yes your right, do you want to add the walnuts in now?" I asked as she nods
"Yes!!" She yells as I give her the bowel of walnuts as she pours all of it in.
"Great now let's put it in the oven and we can take the other one out now aswell." I say as I pick up the tray and place it in the oven and take out the second batch to see it was ready.
"It smells really good Bailey!" Millie says standing on the chair as she stares at the brownies in awe
"It does, doesn't it?" I pick up the knife and cut the brownies into squares so it could cool down quicker.
"Can I try one?" Millie asked
"This one needs to cool down but we can try the first batch." I say as her eyes lit up as she jumps off the chair and runs to the stove where the first batch of brownies were.
"Which piece do you want?" I asked as she points to the corner piece
"This one!"
"I also love corner pieces." I said giving her the piece she wanted as I take a piece for myself aswell.
"How is it?" I asked as I look to see she ate it all in one bite as I giggle
"Carefull now Princess, dont want you to choke."
"It tastes really good!!" She yells as i smiled
"I'm glad you enjoyed it."
"Bailey are you and Alegio still fighting? " Millie asked I sigh as I look at her and shook my head
"No, we arent fighting enymore. " I said
"Bailey do you love Alegio?" She asked as I stare at her thinking on what to say
"You really like asking me that, huh? I dont know to be honest. Alegio and I have been through a lot, we had good times together. Even though your brother hurt me so badly..."
"I dont regret meeting him and I would do it all over again I would feel all that pain again and again because in a way, it showed me what love flet like. He taught me what a realanship should be like."
"He was and forever will be my first love, so yes in aý way I do still love Alegio but we can never be together, him and i live completely different lives and in different worlds. We will only break each other and i dont want to hurt him."
"I dont want him to regret ever being with me so that's why I have to make the hard decision for both of us and pretend I dont love him when I do." I said as she stares at me
"But Alegio loves you..if you love him why not be with him?"
"Because I'm not worth it, I'm not worth the trouble he will have because of me." I state as she stares at me sadly
"But-" Before Millie could say anything the door bell rings, Aunty Alicia nor Frederico was here yet so walk towards the door. Who is here at six o'clock in the Moring?
I open the door and there in front of me stood and beautiful woman, she had light brown long hair with pale skin, her eyes blue and seemed similar to Rey's. She wore a tight marron dress that was to her thighs and she showed clevech she had black expensive looking high heels on that made her legs look longer than they actually were, Who is she? And why do I get such a bad feeling from her?
"Hello? Can I help you?" I asked as she stares at me harshly looking me up and down slowly with a cruel and cold glare
"Is Alegio here?" She states her voice harsher than her cold eyes as I stare at her irritated
"He's asleep, do you want me to past out a message? " I asked trying to sound as polite as possible as she rolled her eyes
"Oh please I'm sure you wouldn't even say a thing to him, Bailey."
"Exuse me?"
"My apologies I know you but you dont know me, I'm Cora. I have heard so much about you but I must say thank you for leaving Alegio because if you I wouldn't have ever found a man who is so good hearted and in bed." She states with an amused smile as I stare at her confused and shocked as I flet a piece of my heart break
"Cora? You and Alegio are together?" I whisper as her smirk gets wider
"So you have heard of me that's good, at least you know now that he no longer has his eyes on you, him and I have been together since the beginning of this year and he just can't keep his hands off me."
"Men am I right? Such horn dogs for the woman they love." She laughs as I lower my head and stay quiet
"I see.." I whispered
"Well anyway it was lovely talking to you but I must be on my way, Can you let Alegio know that I stopped by? Him and I are going on a date this evening. " she says as she walks down the stairs and into her car then drives away. I close the door and lean against the door in shock feeling the Lump in my throat get bigger as I tried my best not to cry..
So this whole time, he has been with her? While he was with her he was also pretending to love me? And after the night we hsd last night
He never actually loved me, did he? He is with another yet he still desided to sleep with me..
Because if I told how I flet without knowing what I know now..I would of regretted it..I guess he hasn't changed no he has, he has changed for the worse..
Millie walks towards me slowly, she gets in front of me and looks up at me as my eyes go blurry from the tears..
"Bailey, don't cry.. she's lying-" Millie says hugging my knees as I shook my head
"She's not..why would she like about being with someone she loves and he loves her..not me.."
"It wasn't me.."
"I shouldn't feel like this when I was the one pretending to not love him...so why?" I whispered tears falling down my cheeks
"Why does it feel like a stab to the chest? Betrayed again by him..why did I ever..think it was a good idea to trust him again.."
"Like I was pretending not love him he was pretending to love me.."
"It was a mistake coming here, it was a mistake trusting him.."
"And it was a mistake loving him.." I cried as I fall to my knees as Millie hugged me, she was crying too
"Bailey she's lying! Please don't cry! Don't cry!" She whimpered as I hugged her
"Millie it's okay, I'm okay..I just can't stay here anymore..I have to go.." I whispered as Millie looks at me and shakes her head
"No! You only suppose to go home later! You can't leave yet! You have to stay you promised me!!!" She screams at the top of her lungs crying as I held her tighter
"If your worried I will run away and you won't see me again don't be, because you will see me again. You are my princess and I won't ever abandon you."
"I will see you tomorrow since you come with Alegio to the office everyday.." I whispered as I place my forehead against hers as I push her bangs back
"You may not be my daughter by blood but I do love you like your my own..I won't ever leave you again, Millie. " I whispered as I kiss her forehead softly wiping away her tears with the palm of my thumb.
"I promise.."
