Together Forever

Evelyn's POV

If I say I was scared would be an understatement.

I was beyond scared.

I don't have any idea why but the truth is I was. I have never been this terrified in my life. What much could go wrong if they meet? At most I would have to face his temper tantrum again, what is now gonna happen. But it shouldn't be that much of a deal. Again it has been.

I shouldn't have been so surprised though. He has already been my many firsts. It's one of them maybe.

But the expression of him I saw then was not just anger. It was mixed with hurt. Yes, I saw hurt in his eyes. And that hurt me. Standing face to face right there, this was more important to me to know why he was hurt than knowing the reason behind his anger.

The man who is always smirking, why did he give such a smile that breaks your heart?

Why is he hurt?

"Evie?" Nick's voice breaks my thoughts as I look at his worried face. I take in my surroundings and realize we are in front of our house. I was so deep in my thoughts that I didn't even notice when the car stopped.

Unbuckling the seat belt, I get out of the car and head towards the elevator, Nick following behind. After reaching my floor, I hurriedly open the door, get inside and plop myself on the couch. Leah hasn't come back yet. Maybe it would be night.

Nick closes the door and then sits beside me. I look up at him to see him eyeing me skeptically.

"What?" I ask, my voice low.

"You are hiding something. Now tell me what that is." He replies with a determined look on his face.

He is doubting now too.

I smile nervously, "What do you mean by that? What would I hide from you? It's nothing."

"Listen, Evie, I am not stupid, ok? Yesterday you came home with blood on your hand. When I asked you whose blood that was, you told me that wasn't yours. I didn't forget." He says, his voice getting louder.

"And today, what do you think I didn't notice anything?"

I stare at him blankly. No answer is coming to my mind.

Mr. Jones, why in the world was he so angry? It was like he was trying hard to restrain him from breaking my face? Now tell me what the matter is." He announces, folding his

when you need a friend by your side to say "I am here for you." A true friend who will never leave you. In your success, they will be happier than you and in the bad times, they will support you with everything. It's very hard to find a friend like this. Now we are selfish, we just think about ourselves, not about others. But if we get one, we should think of ourselves as so lucky. Not everyone is
