The Contract   You Made Your Bed
Layla This is the moment I started freaking out. The room suddenly felt smaller; I gasped for air, holding my chest. "No, no, no. Are you... God." I said as I placed my hands on my head, closing my eyes and feeling stupid beyond belief.I can't help this is happening to me. I... I can not be married to him. No! Daniel sat, his hands resting on his knees and looking down. "Daniel, say something. Tell me we didn't just do something so stupid as getting married last night?" I wanted him to say this was a joke. I was ready for it; I was prepared to hear those words.He begins to nod; then, he starts chuckling as if he's heard the funniest joke in the world. "Daniel!" He throws his head back, still laughing and nodding in disbelief. "This isn't funny! Tell me this is a joke?" I began thinking like a little kid throwing a tantrum. He gets up and pulls me into a hug, kissing my forehead. "This isn't happening," I say, whining, placing my hands on his chest. "How can you let this happen?"
The Contract   Deal With It
LaylaI dragged myself out of the hotel, and everyone seemed enthusiastic about returning home. I was excited to start working with dad. It's been so long since I've visited the company, and I was really looking forward to it. The only thing that worried me was his thoughts on this situation. I let him down; this is not how I had pictured ever being married. I wanted the big wedding, with the long white gown, the fancy napkins, the big beautiful arrangements, bridesmaids, everything. Not be married by Elvis in the little chapel of Vegas while being highly intoxicated.I sat shotgun, it was Daniel's turn to drive, and I guess the proper thing to do was sit next to him. I tried falling asleep, snuggling on my seat, but I just couldn't. I was unease. I began feeling horrible for telling him I didn't want this marriage. There was a look in his eyes that told me my words had hurt him. Yet, he continued to caress me, squeezed my hand from time to time, and held my hand, kissing my knuckle
The Contract   Just Sing It, Layla
LaylaSo, after I headed upstairs, packed my belongings again, and looked over all my stuff while Daniel snooped through old photos, my parents finally kicked me out. You think maybe....just maybe, my mom would have cried, felt a little sad or what not, but no! They just let me leave. "We'll come by to visit sometime! Love you, honey." mom yells after the car as we drive off. Dad and Karly hug side by side, waving by. I sigh as I see them through the side mirror as we leave my parent's house. Daniel doesn't live far from my parents, but I miss them. My phone buzzes for the billionth time. Trevor and a few unknown numbers have been blowing up my phone. I grunt inwardly as I see another call from Trevor. I close my eyes in frustration, ignoring the call. "Who keeps calling you, ladybug?" Daniel asks, making me turn toward him."Uhh - no one important," I say, shrugging my shoulders. The phone stops vibrating, but seconds later, it begins again. I look at it and see Trevor calling agai
The Contract   Get Designing
"Jenny, Layla, and I will be in Felix's office. If you need anything, make sure you reach me through Beth," he says, smiling at her. "Yes, sure. I'll do that," she says, smiling at both of us. "And welcome back, Miss Layla," she says, making me smile. "Thanks, Jenny. It's good to be back; I love your top the way." I say as I see her green cross-top shirt. She smiles, blushing and looking at her shirt. "Thank you, Layla. I mean, Mrs. Halloway," she says, making me blush. We walk across the floor to the other side and turn toward dad's new office. Since Danny is the new CEO, dad and he traded offices. Dad is now in the middle of all the mayhem, where all the other executives are, and Danny's is more secluded, with only two studios next and across from him that is used for photo shoots."Good morning, Beth." he greets dads secretary, making her smile. "Good morning, sir. Oh, Miss Layla. Good morning." she says as she gets up and hugs me, making me smile. "Good morning, Beth. How are S
The Contract   That Feeling of Jealousy, part 1
LaylaI changed my shirt as quickly as possible and tossed my shirt on the coat hanger next to the door. Luckily, dad was skinny, and his shirt fit perfectly. I ran out and made my way toward the conference room. My blood boiled when I saw Sasha sitting on the seat next to Daniel. "If she thought she'd step in and take my man, she has another thing coming!" I thought as I gritted my teeth. Wait... Wow, Layla. Where the hell did that come from? Relax girl. This is not even a real marriage, remember? I closed my eyes and sighed, gripping the door handle and pulling it open. Daniel was talking and paused when I entered the room. "Oh, good. Layla, sit over here, please. Guys, scooch down one seat, please. You too, Sasha." she looks at him as if she has just been offended but still gets up and sits one chair down. I slowly walk past everyone, tucking a loose strand behind my ear. Daniel stands, pulling the chair out for me and sitting after I take a seat."Now, where was I? Oh, right.
The Contract   That Feeling of Jealousy, part 2
â¨â¨Third person POVâ¨â¨Sasha is eager. She just hung up with Sebastian and has great news for Danny and Felix. If she can get them both to have lunch with Sebastian, she can try and flirt her way into this deal. After All, no man has ever been able to resist her charm. She's sure Daniel is only trying to act hard to get, but he'll soon fall for her too. Soon as he sees her flirting with Sebastian, Danny will fall right to her feet and ask her out. She makes her way out and sees Felix; she smiles, glances at the glass door, and fixes her hair in the reflection. "Time to act, Sasha. It's time we get Danny back." after all; they did date a year ago. I mean, technically, it was just a few dates, but they were the best dates of her life. She wanted more, so much more, but one day he just ended things. No explanation, just the words; it's over, and that was it. She was upset at first, but the more time passed, and the fact he wasn't dating anyone just told her maybe he just felt too much p
The Contract   Let's Get Down To Business
LaylaI looked up and saw his eyes closed. I can't help but go on my tiptoes, kissing his lips. He sighs, tightening his hold on me and burying his head in my hair. "Danny, you need to trust me. Sebastian and I dated a long time ago; there is nothing between us. I haven't seen or heard from him in over seven years. And for all I know, he's probably dating or married." "And if he isn't?" Danny says, looking at me madly. "Danny, enough. It wouldn't matter, ok?" I say, holding my hand up and making him look at my ring. "This!" " I say, as my other hand rests on his chest. "Should be enough for you to have confidence in us. The fact that these rings bond us.""And it has nothing to do with the fact we signed a contract, right?" "You know what? If you don't trust me, then why did you marry me? Why not annul the marriage as I asked you from the beginning?" I was mad. "Wait. Layla, I'm sorry. I just... It pissed me off to see how he's just looking at you. I wanted to punch his teeth in." "
The Contract   Except The Unexpected
Layla"Danny, don't say that," I said, looking at him slightly disappointed. He looked back, smiling slightly, but I could see he was somewhat saddened. "I'm sure you'll have kids in the future. You'll be a great dad one day, I know it." I said, turning away from him and looking out the window. I sighed, leaning against the window for the rest of the ride. When we finally got home, I didn't have the energy or spirit to talk to anyone. I have been confused with everything that's happened lately. I was supposed to stay away from him. That was my primary plan. I knew if I came close to him again and talked to Danny, things would go downhill, and they have. He's making me fall madly for him again, and I don't think I can keep denying it. He's been the sweetest guy these past few days, and yesterday at Mes Amis, when he was jealous of Sebastian, I realized maybe he does care about me more than I thought. Was I ready to be a mom? I don't think I am, and we have only been together no more
