《His Proposal》His Proposal - 29

On Thursday afternoon I got a phone call from the hospital saying that Aleysa can come home. I put my phone down and look at Jai. "Aleysa's being released. We can pick her up and bring her home."
Jai smiles. "That's great. I'm not letting you drive. I'll take you to the hospital to get your sister and drop you off at home before I go to the club."
"What are you going to do for dinner?"
He looks at me. "I'm going to buy something on the way to work. Do you want me to stop somewhere and get something for you?"
Shaking my head. "I think I will cook tonight. I might make Aleysa's favourite dinner. I just hope she will eat it."
"What is her favourite food?"
"Mac and cheese. It's quick and simple. Just the way my little sister likes her meals. She's never appreciated the amount of time people spend in the kitchen to make something that will be in your stomach five minutes after it's been put on the table."
Jai laughs. "She has a point. I was wondering why I slaved in the kitchen the other night for you to only take a couple of bites of the meal and leave the rest to Nate and me."
"Nate's a growing boy. He can eat whatever he wants and burns it off when he goes to football practice." I pick up my handbag and walk to the door with Jai. "I'm looking forward to bringing my little sister home."
Last night I cleaned Aleysa's room and I removed the dust. I found a few family photo's so I stuck them on the wall in her room. Jai helped me put photo's up in the living room of Mom and Dad.

Nate helped us put things up that reminds us of our parents. I think right now is the perfect time to have things of our parents around the house. I was starting to miss all the pictures of them.
I came across a photo that was taken while I was away at University of Mom, Dad, Nate and Aleysa.
Nate took the photo from me and he looked at it. A smile came across his face. He looked at Jai and I. "This was a special day for us." He whispered. "It was the day that we found out that Aleysa was cancer-free. Mom and Dad took us to a Lakehouse that they went to when they first got together." He looked at me. "They were going to take you with us, but you landed an internship and they didn't want to mess your future up. That's the way Mom and Dad were."
"I know."
"That afternoon Mom and Dad took us to the wharf and we hired out a small boat and we took out on the lake. Dad bought some fishing nets and rods for him and I. We went fishing. Aleysa caught a fish and she put it in the boat. She watched it move around. Dad told her to touch it. She looked at him with disgust and said. "No," she looked at it again and then threw it in the water." He shakes his head. "She threw a perfectly good fish back in the water. We could have had that dinner."
"I wish that I was there that day. It seemed like a great day with Mom and Dad." I rose from my seat and excused myself.
I missed out on so much. Why did I have to choose New York to live in when I had the best family in Los Angeles? I lost heaps of times with my family.

A tear slips down my face while we are heading to the hospital. I wipe the tear away, but not before Jai saw it.
Jai holds my hand. "You were going through what happened last night weren't you?"
"How did you know?"
Jai pulls the car to the side of the road. "You haven't said much since you heard the story about your parents and siblings. I see more of you than you think. You're easy to read Chloe. I hope you don't close this part of yourself off. I like who you are when you show vulnerability at the right time."
I laugh. "I won't shut myself off. I'm as tough as a nail."
Jai pulls the car back onto the road. He turns the radio on and 'Achy Breaky Heart' by Billy Ray Cyrus comes on and he sings along to the song.
"Don't tell my heart
My achy breaky heart
I just don't think he'd understand
And if you tell my heart
My achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man."
"I can't believe you know all the words to this song."
Jai winks. "It's a classic. I remember Dad played this song to Mom when we were driving. He sang it really loudly that Mom had to bring ear earplugs whenever we went on cross country trips. Dad made sure to play the song every two hours. Mom got Dad to pull the car over once and she began to walk down the highway. There were absolutely no cars around. So, Dad drives away. There was a hill about four miles from where we left Mom. Dad pulled the car over and waited there for her. By the time she got to the car she had sweat dripping down her face and her clothes were clinging to her body. It was also in the middle of summer too. She cursed Dad all the way to the hotel. When we finally got to the hotel Mom checked in and ran straight to the shower. She waited in the bathroom until she got Dad to give her a set of clean clothes, a towel and shampoo and conditioner."
Smiling at him. "If you do that to me I will break the cd in half."
He chuckles. "Noted."
Silence fills the car as Jai gets closer to the hospital.
I can't wait to have my sister at home and sleeping in her own bed again.
Jai pulls the car into the parking lot of the hospital. He finds a spot close to the front.
Stepping out of the car I make my way straight to Aleysa's room and open the door.
Aleysa looks up as I enter the room. She has a smile on her face. "I get to go home today." She climbs out of bed and moves over to me. She hugs me.
There's paperwork on the table and I go through it. I sign everything and take it to the nurse's station.
Ten minutes later, Aleysa is released and I push her to the doors of the hospital. Aleysa stands up and grabs my arm. She holds onto me all the way to the car.
Jai opens the door.
Aleysa thanks him before climbing into the backseat.
Climbing in I buckle my seatbelt and turn towards her. "Are you looking forward to sleeping in your own bed?"
Aleysa nods. "I'm looking forward to seeing Nate play football again. I have missed watching him play. He's amazing on the field."

TW: Sexual assault, murder, abuse, needles, gore, child death, genocide, cult, fire, self harm, and moreDisclaimer: this story will be very disturbing, but it is something I have wanted to write for a while so I hope you'll enjoy.About: During the winter Kyrie was in his bathroom sitting on the cold toilet seat. The chill seeming to stab the nerves in his bottom. Noticing blood droplets splash into the water below him, he felt a familiar sting reach his eyes and his vision faded like the frost covered window beside him. He saw a dull pair of scissors on the sink to his right and decided to get to work.Update: I deleted some of the extremely detailed descriptions in the first chapter because the goal of the chapter wasn't really to gross people out. It was to show detail to what triggered Kyrie to do what he did.

COMPLETED"Seems to me," he whispered, his lips brushing her ear, "that you have two heartbeats." "Oh really?" Dakota raised a brow, unconsciously pressing her thighs together. Alessandro hummed in response, his green eyes dark with lust. His racing suit hung loosely over his hips, the skin tight fireproof showing off his rippling muscles. "One here," he began, pushing a lock of hair off her shoulder. He took her hand, pressing it against her chest. Her heart hammered against her rib cage as if it was threatening to jump out. "Would you like to know where the other one is, Dakota?" Her breath hitched at her name leaving his lips. He spun her around, the two falling back onto the couch that was against the wall. She held her breath as he took her hand again. Slowly, he led her hand down her stomach. Lower. Lower.-------------------------The roar of V6 engines. The whirring of wheel guns.
