Cole's POV
I woke up with a slight headache. It couldn't have been the martini because I only took one glass.
Getting up from bed, I walk towards the bathroom and open the first cabinet. I bring out the first aid kit and take out some aspirins. Pooping one into my mouth. I decided to take a shower.
I brush my teeth and take my bath. I tie a towel round my waist and clean the bruise on my right hand, then I wrap it up.
My room was still a fucking mess, so I just walked to my wardrobe and look for something to wear.
I put on a black denim jeans and a plain white tee. I didn't bother combing my hair. I just brushed my hands through it.
I tried to tidy up my room. It wasn't easy but I got it done.
My parents were leaving today. What a relief.
I walked out of the room and headed towards the living room. My dad, mom and grandma were seated. It seems they are ready to leave.
I make my presence known and I walk towards Olivia. I lean down to hug her and kiss her cheek.
"Did you sleep well? " she asked me. I nodded and sat beside her.
I glanced at my mom and I could see guilt in her eyes. I felt really bad but it wasn't my fault. Then I looked towards my dad and he was just staring at me with no emotions. The he stood up and motioned for me to follow him. We walked into the kitchen and he sat down. I sat opposite him.
"I see you're still wearing that silly jacket of yours. " he said to me but I wasn't wearing it today so he must be talking about yesterday.
"Yes. " I said monotonously.
"I thought you would have out grew it since you're older now but I guess I thought wrong. " he said to me.
"Why did you call me here? Is it to insult my choice in clothing or tell me something important. " I said changing the topic.
"Well I wanted to talk to you about the company. I decided it'll be best for you to start your training to become CEO when you turn 18." I can't believe this man.
"What about college? " I asked him.
"There is certainly no need for that. The training would be enough. " he said and I was getting pissed off.
"What do you mean by that. You can't just dictate my life for me! " I shouted at him and he didn't seem pleased with it.
" I can dictate what goes on in your life because I'm your father. "
"You're not my father and I would do what you're asking of me right now. I'd start the training on my own terms. So if you don't like it you'll just have to find someone else to become the CEO of your damn company. " I said to him and stormed off. I walked into the living room and I could see the way mom and grandma were looking at me with worry in their eyes. They must have overheard.
I didn't bother saying anything to them, I walked passed them and went out of the house. I was very pissed. Who did he think he is. Who is he to call himself my father. He never acted like one so he didn't deserve to call himself that.
I went to the garage and hopped on, on my motorcycle. I rode out of the house and continued driving to the one place that always calms me down.
It was my favorite place in the world. I stopped at the ending pathway of the forest part.
It was a cliff.
I sat at the edge of the cliff and I was staring into the water. I had a lot on my mind but a certain person comes to my mind. I haven't seen her in a while and I missed her.
I think I should bring her here one day. She'll love it. I thought smiling to myself.
I brought out a cigarette and lit it.
I just sat there, smoking and thinking about my life that's a fucking mess.

Lily's POV
I haven't seen Cole for the past two days and I couldn't help but feel sad and angry at the same time.
He didn't tell me he was leaving. I just woke up and found out he was gone. I was sad at first then I started being angry for an unknown reason.
I went into the bathroom and took my bath and brushed my teeth.
I tied a towel around myself and walked towards my walk-in closet to pick something to wear.
I put on a white crop top and blue high -waisted jeans. I tied my hair into a low bun.
I wanted to get Cole out of my head so maybe this time apart would help.
You're in too deep. I don't think you can ever get him out of your head or your heart.
My subconscious said and I just ignored it.
I walked out of the room and headed to the kitchen. I was starving.
Grandma was in the kitchen making scrambled eggs and bacon. My favorite.
I went up to her and hugged her from behind.
"Hey grandma. " I said to her and she smiled at me.
"Hey sugar. Did you sleep well? " she asked me.
"I did. " I said kissing her cheek. I unwrapped my hands from her and went to sit on one of the chairs.
"I see you're making my favorite. " I said to her giggling.
"Its the least I can do for my favorite flower. " she said to me. I smiled at her words and when I wanted to reply Mason walked in and beat me to it.
"So if she's your favorite flower. What am I? " he asked pouting.
I burst into a fit of laughter and he glared at me.
"Oh don't be baby lil bro. "I said to him. Which caused him to glare more.
"Don't mind Lily. You're my favorite munchkin. " Grandma said to him pinching his cheeks. And I laughed more. He just smiled at what grandma said before turning to face me with a sharp glare.
He sat beside me and I ruffled his hair. He glared at me again before he smiled at me. Then I came up with a brilliant idea.
"Hey Mase, why don't you and me go to the movies today. " He grinned at me and that made me smile. When we were still home, me and Mason used to hang out a lot because he really didn't have friends.
We'd go out to see movies or get ice cream. We use to have a lot of fun but when we came here. We didn't hang out much so I thought we could spend time together today.
"Sure thing sis. " he said to me and I smiled. I haven't seen mom and dad today. I wonder what's up.
"Hey grandma where's mom and dad? " I asked her. She was serving us our food when she answered.
"They said they had something important to do. So they took the first flight back to LA." She said to me.
Wait what? They went back home and they didn't even tell me about it. What wonderful parents I have.
I looked towards Mason and he didn't seem surprised. So he knew. I nudged him with my elbow and he looked at me.
"Did you know about this? " I asked him.
"Well yeah. They said it during dinner yesterday. You would have known if you actually came to eat with us. " he said to me.
Well he's right. I didn't eat with them yesterday but that doesn't mean they wouldn't have told me. They could have come up to my room or something. I think grandma noticed my irritation towards the matter.
"Oh honey don't worry about it. They didn't want to disturb you. That's why they didn't come to tell you yesterday. " she said to me.
That's not an excuse but I'll let it slide.
"Would they be coming back? " I asked her.
"No. You and Mason would be staying here till the summer is over. "She said to me.
But I didn't respond, me and Mason finished up our food and went out of the house.
We were going to see the new movie that just came out. Hustlers.
It was really fun because I got to spend time with Mason.
And for the first time I got my mind off that blue eyed boy with the cutest smile.
