Happily ever after? Maybe not.Life is about challenges, life is about getting better, life is about constant conflicts to create a stronger bond. Life will not stay perfect but for a moment it can... not for a lifetime. There will come huddles after huddles but what makes it better is having the people you love by your side. Love is being able to put aside and forget your issues because they become irrelevant when you're with a certain person. Leona and Eric weren't perfect either. They tried their best to give their daughter a perfect family. Over the past years, there were moments when they had the worst arguments that would make Eric drive off out of anger leaving Leona worried sick until he returned or when Eric had to sleep on the couch. There were moment when Leona would get jealous of how close Eric was to his female co-workers. Moments when they would be so angry that they felt they were done and it wasn't working but after the anger cooled off they always reconciled with so
TROUBLED Prologue
—Scrolling..Too chubby...Too short...Too skinny..."His smile is just creepy." I said to my best friend who gave me a smile of disbelief. How did I end up on this site looking for a potential rental boyfriend as if I'm about to rent a car? Well, being twenty-five and single doesn't help when your parents believe.."You should be married by now and this is the perfect age to have kids darling, you aren't getting any younger." My dear mother would always say every time, every given moment. My father would simply nod, it didn't help that I happened to be the only child. The only girl, I was your definition of a spoiled brat but it didn't bother me. My parents were well off, very well off... if I may say.My father is a well known surgeon around Los Angeles, my mother; she made a good house wife. They were practically the perfect couple, of course I wanted exactly what they had with someone one day, hopefully.They hated every single boyfriend, I had ever brought over. The Winters wer
TROUBLED Chapter 1: He was so skinny
My parents-Always held a annual gala, where all the funds went to charity. My father was always a giver and yes this year they expected me to bring someone. I had never brought anyone except Robbie, my stupid ex-boyfriend. We had been at it since our teenage days.He lived in our suburban area up north. My father took a great liking to him, I was happy and in-love. We were the perfect couple, we were going to get married and have a couple of kids but that all dissolved into acid when he made another woman pregnant. He told me, he was inlove with her and things between us weren't working. Everything suddenly became clearer and clearer, he had been with Brenda for a while... he cheated on me. He had ofcourse been planning to leave me but he couldn't you know why?My father is a doctor.That's sounds stupid because you're probably thinking. What does my father being a well known doctor have anything to do with my relationship with Robbie well-Robbie is a pediatrician. He absolutely ado
TROUBLED Chapter 2: He was so selfish
It had been-A week since I got acquainted to Eric Michelson. He was the most aggravating person I had ever came across in my life. Everything was going as planned, my parents had invited me to a cook out. I thought this would be the perfect time to introduce them to Eric. We were suppose to meet for lunch, he was an hour late when I decide I was about to leave. I would definitely find him in his suite playing stupid video games.Eric Michelson was everything, I did not want in a boyfriend."Leo.." I heard someone grabbing a chair across me. Looking up, I saw Eric, hair wet... tight fitting shirt and lose jeans that fit his waist perfectly. I had come to realize, he just loved wearing boots... was it a London thing or it was an Eric thing."You're late.""Thanks for emphasizing on that but I'm here now." He replied giving me a quick smile, it was genuine. My heart faltered a bit, he was actually smiling at me... not that I cared right.."Are you always late for everything, Michelson?"
TROUBLED Chapter 3: He was so late
Chapter 3: He was so late I should have known not to trust Eric, he was late as it is. I couldn't describe how much I loathed this day and the company around me. I scanned through the people who were conversing in my parents huge backkyard. My father was hysterically laughing at something Mr. Johnston, Laura's father had said. My mother was right beside me and I had questions for her."You really just had to invite him.." I let out a sardonic laugh, my dear mother raised her head to look at me as if I had grown two heads. She had her brunette hair in a nice bob. It suited her like a hand in glove. My mother was very beautiful and didn't look a day over forty."Robbie is still family, Leona." She gave me a small smile before her eyes went over to where he stood with Brenda. She was holding the bag with the babies needs and etc. I pictured her falling in the swimming pool in my head but as much as I wanted to hate her, I could never. Brenda Williams was a nice person. She didn't deser
TROUBLED Chapter 4 : He was a good liar
Everyone eventually left as it was almost sunset but to my surprise Robbie and his little family still stuck around. I didn't want him here, I didn't want his little family here as well and that thing- Let's just say Robbie knew me well, we had practically grown up together with my bestfriend Laura. He could always tell when I wasn't being myself and today I wasn't. We were best of friends before we started a relationship. Even though Eric played his part well... my dad seemed to love him but my mom was still very cautious of him. "Aren't you leaving? the baby must be tired." I faked a laugh at Brenda. I didn't know if she knew that I didn't like her but at the looks of it... if she knew she certainly played pretend well. "He isn't much of a trouble maker really.. he sleeps most of the time." Brenda gave me what looked like a genuine smile. "Do you want to hold him?"I panicked."No, it's alright." I quickly went to grab plates setting them on the table. Making myself busy avoiding.
TROUBLED Chapter 5 : He was so nice
Flickering my eyes open, my vision was still blurry. A blanket was pulled over my body, my hair- my hair was in my face. I never put my hair down even though whenever I did. I received so many compliments. There was an empty space beside me, it was a single bed; what did I expect? I smiled at the thought of yesterday... Eric was actually being nice to me. I stood up yawning like an animal, thank God he wasn't here to witness that. Why do you care so much? My subconscious mocked. This was going to far, I needed to stop. I thought to myself. I had a beautiful dream that Eric had been playing with my hair. He softly ran his fingers through it. It was a good feeling I thought to myself.Looking for a hair tie around, I immediately found one on my desk. I had a stack of those because my hair was always in a ponytail. It suited me best. My eyes then flickered to a diary looking journal that laid there. I didn't waste time opening it. I immediately cringed. - By twenty-five I should be m
TROUBLED Chapter 6 : He was so adventurous.
Hey sugar tits. x I received a text and immediately knew who it was. Only one person called me sugar tits because he would always say he loved how perfect and perky they were. I didn't know if I should be happy that Robbie was finally giving me attention. I was also trying my level best not to have... thoughts about Eric even though, he was right next to me. Fuck guys!"Should I take any brand of milk?" Eric brought me out of my thoughts. We were running my parents errands, after having dropped off his luggage back home. We had to go to Walmart to buy a few things. "My dad is a little picky actually-" like replied. "Let's take the dairy farmers brand." I said immediately going back to my phone. This was something I had always wanted... Robbie's attention. "You better not be talking to that arsehole." Eric clicked his tongue pushing the trolley past me. Someone clearly wasn't in the mood. "And if I am?" I sassed away. "Then you're an imbecile and guess what? He will just continu
