I was in the bathroom trying to get rid of the chocolate on my skin.
I hear a knock on the door.
"Come in." I sigh.
"Hey you okay?" I see Carter smile at me.
"I've been better. This is not a good look on me." I scoff.
"You still look beautiful."
"Tell that to my hair that is absolutely drenched in chocolate." I roll my eyes.
"Here I got you this." He hands me one of his shirts and sweatpants.
"Thanks but I can't take that Carter." I smile at him.
"Why not?"
"Because I don't think Levi will be very pleased of me wearing another mans clothing, especially when that other man is...you." I shrug.
"You're right, I'm sorry."
"It's okay. I think I should just get going. The girls were crying a bunch earlier when I fell and their probably tired. How's Julie?"
"Drunk very drunk. My parents took her to bed."
"I just don't get it. She just pushed me into the fountain like I was nothing. I'm her best friend, do you think she's mad at me?"
My eyes water.
"Hey no don't get like that. Jules didn't even know what she was doing. When my parents took her up to the room she just kept on repeating 'I hurt my Roryyy' then she started crying. It was sort of funny." He chuckles.
"God...I...I love you so much." I whisper and he suddenly kissed me.
I let him, I just let him kiss me.
Just like that because in that moment it was just him and I.
He finally removed his lips from mine and set his forehead on mine.
"Rory I love you too. I have something to tell you."

"What is it?"
"Levi is bad man. He...he's done illegal things that can put him in prison for many years."
"W-what no, you're being ridiculous Carter." I chuckle nervously and try to walk out but he pulls me back.
"He's killed people Aurora! He steals money from other companies to improve his own. How do you think he's drastically improved his business during the course of three years?"
"But Carter he's father of my babies. How can he be that bad?" I start to cry.
"Rory I wouldn't tell you this if I didn't care about you or you're children. Get out of that house Aurora, please for me."
"I have to go." I pull away from him.
"Wait! Before you go, take this. Please I need you to take it so you can believe me. I'm a detective Aurora. I know this! He's a terrible guy and you need to get away from him."
"If he's so terrible then why has he never laid a dangerous finger on me."
"Look I don't him to hurt you or the girls. Please Aurora."
"If I leave him...I'm left with no one else." I cry.
"You're getting married and you're going to forget about me. I won't have anyone."
"I would never forget about you, I'm just trying to move on."
"You move on and I'm left with no one Carter."
I walked out and I heard call out my name but I didn't stop. My heels kept on clicking and I made my way to my family.
"Ready?" Levi smiles and kisses my cheek.
"Yes!" We all get into the car and look back at the girls who are sound asleep.
"Their precious just like you." Levi whispers and place my hand on his cheek.
"Babe?"
"Yes darling?"
"I think we should wait a little longer to have another baby."
He furrowed his eyebrows.
"I just think that we should have fun with the girls for now. We could travel and then later we can have another baby." I nod.
He sighs.
"Fineee."
"I love you."
I have no choice but to love you. I wish it were different.
"I love you too."

>> Featured Staff Pick on Tapas.io! “Imagine someone who likes you so much, they make you like yourself.” Looking at sixteen-year-old Neo Favre, there isn't anything to point out that would explain him being heavily bullied. He has loving parents, a healthy amount of sibling rivalry to overcome every day. He can be funny, he is nice, he isn't an annoying know-it-all nerd. He's just like any other teenager attending Haven Highschool. Except one thing; Neo suffers from OCD, and his irky habits are solely the reason for his classmates to make fun of him. But as much as he tries to hide his annoying habits of counting literally everything, entering a class without touching the floor right in front of the first desk, tapping light button's to the beat of "we will rock you" and any other small tic, his fellow students know, and they use it to bully him endlessly. Neo just wants it all to end, but right when he worked up the guts to put his actions where his mouth is, Calo show's up to save the day, and maybe his week. And who knows, maybe even his life.
