He stops at the parking lot and stare at the wheels of his car before turning toblook at her still stunned face.He cannot read what is on her mind. There is no emotion written on her face as she stares blankly at an empty space."Gab..."Hesitantly, he reaches for her hand that is now banded with his ring.

Hating everything that had broken and continuously breaking her apart. Her finger where a stick of cigarette lies in between moves in a circular motion around the rim of the newly served shot glass of tequila in front of her as her mind once again wanders off to the bitter part of her past.That day when her father announced that her mother is no longer with them.10 years ago..."Take a rest, Gab. I know you're tired and upset..." He said before turning to walk out of her hospital room."'Mom... Did she abandon me as well, like you?" She asked with her broken voice. She just couldn't believe that none of her parents were beside her when she opened her eyes."Gabby...""Did she decide to not buy me back like you did?

Gabrielle yawns as she stretches her limbs in the middle of the comfortable bed she's lying on. She can feel the ray of light on her face but the breeze of air she can feel on her skin is too cold that she sluggishly pulls the blanket up to her neck to warm herself.Her eyes are still closed and she had no intention on opening them yet. If she were to choose, she'd rather just sleep and not wake up ever again.

So right now, all she wants is to just sleep and pray that when she wakes up, everything will be different.But fuck life, seriously, none of her prayers seem to be heard as she jolts in surprise as the kettle from somewhere in the room snoozes so loud."Argh!" She grunts throwing herself back to the cozy bed she's

Marching her way out of his flat, Gabrielle quickly pulls up the black dress from her knees up to cover her cold naked body as she heads to the door."Idiot!" she grits her teeth as her knuckles turn white clenching it into a fist. She can feel her face heating up because of anger. God! She doesn't usually feel this much anger towards another person to the point that she really wants to punch his face if not murder him."Breathe Gab..." she closes her eyes tightly as she inhales before grabbing her stilettos and briefly looking around for her pouch."Stupid idiot!" she grits her teeth again not finding anything around Vincent's living room.She's already on the verge of screaming and stomping her feet in frustration when she noticed his car keys hanging on the hook on the wall just beside the main door.Not looking around, with the heels hanging on her fore and middle hanging on her fore and middle fingers, Gabrielle marches quickly again to the door and without a second thought, gra

As soon as the doorknob clicked and they got in, Gabrielle allowed herself to slide on the floor due to her horrible hangover, anger and too much exhaustion... but Vincent was quick to catch her fall and carries her to the sofa bed in the living room."Stay here..." he whispers as he was bringing her down, their faces just an inch away. Her intoxicating smell of tequila and expensive perfume together with the natural sweet smell of her skin are all pushing him to stare at her face and lean down to lock her lips with his. But he didn't do that. He knows that the last thing she needs right now is them ending up fighting again after kissing.Like what they always do..."Don't go anywhere." he says combing the locks of her naturally brunette curly hair to the back of her ear."Just stay... here," he says pushing her a little to lean on the sofa, his one arm still wrapped around her neck."With me." he tells her again not leaving her face with his deep penetrating blue orbs as he lets go
