Pepper thanks us all for coming and she specifically thanks Trent for making time to be here.
As if we also didn't make time to be here.
After that Thanksgiving speech as we are seated, having dessert, Kyle surprises Pepper with a silver necklace with a heart on it. Pepper jumps up and down as she takes it.
"Since you bought it for me, can you please put it on my neck?" Pepper asks Kyle politely.
Kyle stands up from the sofa. "Sure."
We clap for Pepper as she boasts in her stunning necklace.
"Well, I also got you something," says Trent and now it feels as if he's competing with Kyle.&nb
I call Troy and he finally picks up.I think Josh kidnapped Bruna and took her to his cousin's place, Jesse.Troy and I drive off to Jesse's house. I hope that Josh has not touched a single hair on Bruna's head, because if he has... I will rip his heart out myself.The night is dark and there's dead silence. The lights are off in Jesse's house and there's no sign of anyone around. Fear starts to creep in. Something is just not right.I hop out of the car and quickly rush into the house. I bang the door loudly but no one opens. Surprisingly, the door is open. Wait, could this be a trap. I quickly switch on the lights with Troy behind me when I hear screams and shouts.
Trent goes outside and comes back with a huge gift which is wrapped up.He hands me the gift. It's really heavy. I quickly unwrap it and I almost break down at the sight of it. I have seen it a million times but I love it more every time I see it. It's more beautiful than it was.The painting.The painting of me in the simple flary emerald green dress and flats, my massive curls tied up in a bun. Every time I see it, I'm still awed by Trent's talent. The fact that he could draw me without even posing… He just thought about me and did it..."Thanks.""Happy Birthday Becca," Trent says as Sophie clings onto his hand, smiling at me fro
I have been to several premier league games before but none of them is as intense as the World Cup. It kicks off with England playing against a North African country, Tunisia.My fellow English are in red jerseys, red scarfs, red bandanas, some have painted their faces in red. The whole England side is painted in red. I remember someone on the plane three days ago saying the world cup divides nations. But no, it doesn't. It has brought England as a country together. It promotes unity in the sense that we have travelled all the way to come and support the talent of our players.The game is intense, as expected. But from the way Kyle and the England boys are playing, it's no secret that Tunisia is the weaker team. I'm seated at the front of the huge stadium, dressed in a red jersey and tiny denim shorts. I spot Sophie from a dist
Sophie is astounded to see Kyle and me.We don't even talk to them; we just act like they are strangers. The guy who was kissing her steps out as Kyle and I step in. I stare at the strange guy as he leaves and I can't help but notice the tattoos on both arms and the numerous piercings in his ears and one on his nose. He doesn't even seem to care that I just caught him kissing someone's girlfriend.We all step out of the lift since we share the same floor with Sophie and Trent. Kyle and I hold hands as we walk to our room. Sophie calls me.Ugh!"Becca?"I look back but don't respond.
Trent does not seem surprised.He bursts into a laugh."Sophie would never do that. Just because your precious 'Rebecca' goes around kissing every Tom, Dick and Harry, doesn't mean my Sophie is like that."Kyle punches his cheekbone when he says that and Trent returns the same. I know I hate it when they fight but this time, I'll just let them do it. I hope Kyle beats the balls out of Trent. How dare he talk about me like that? How dare he compare me to his silly unfaithful girlfriend?The coach separates the two boys but Kyle doesn't let it go. He continues to throw words at Trent."You are here busy training and where the hell is she?" K
"No!"Everyone gasps when Sophie rejects Trent's proposal.I crack up in laughter and so does Kyle.Trent frowns and is about to stand when Sophie pecks him and says,"Yes!"I feel so embarrassed for laughing so loudly at him. Trent smirks at Kyle and I then turns to his girlfriend. He puts the ring on her finger, making her floss her ugly fingers to everyone around the table. Especially to me."Trent," says Sophie. "You are the best man I have ever met in my entire life. All my life, I have dreamed of this day. You going down and proposing to me. Asking me to be with you forever. And y
TRENT'S POV18 months ago,I have a date with Becca tonight.Our relationship has been rocky the past few months since Sophie came back. But I am ying to make things work with Becca no matter what. I can't lose her. I can't imagine ever losing her. Not now. Not ever.Becca has been having trust issues lately because Sophie and I hang out a lot ever since she came back. But she has to understand. I have known Sophie all my life and she will forever hold a place in my heart no matter what. I'm the reason she went through abortion at such a tender age. Yes, I know it was all my dad's doing but I should have done something about it. I should have protected her against my dad.
BACK TO BECCABruna just left me and Tyrone alone.She didn't want to leave in fear that he might harm me but I assured her I'm okay and if he dared hurt me, she had the right to kill him.Tyrone is still looking around at every corner in my house. I wonder what's going on in his head. Perhaps he's looking for a weapon or something to kill me in my own house. Strangely, he didn't come with his bodyguards.Tyrone looks at me, not smirking, no frosty grin on his face, just a genuinely beautiful smile. Reminds me of Trent."Nice house."I sigh and look him straight in the eye.&nb
