Young Amelia's outfit above.

"I don't want to play with you!" Six year old Liam told five year old Amelia.

Amelia's lip quiver. "Why?"

"We don't play with girls." Liam answers.

She looks at Brian, Rob and Ian, who is giving her a big smile. "I like your hair." He says.

"Okay." Amelia replies and walks away.

She goes back to the living room and continues watching cartoon. It was the first time she spoke to Liam. Her mum had always taken her to his house to play but she always played on her own.

"Who are you?" A voice asked.

She raised her eyes and saw an older version of Liam. Same colour of hair and eyes even though his was a little darker.

"I'm Amelia." She replied.

"You're pretty." The ten year old Adam told her.

"You're pretty." She also said, smiling at him.

Even at that time, Adam Black had killer looks. At least, enough to melt a five year old's heart.

"Here." He gave her a kit kat and she collected it happily. "Thank you."

He nods at her then he waves. "Bye."

"Are you going to be here tomorrow?" She asked him hopefully.

She hated going to the Blacks mansion because Liam never played with her but now she believed that she had a new friend.

"No, I'm going back home." He replied and walked away.

He left her sitting there, her legs dangling from the couch. Since Liam doesn't play with girls and her new friend (whose name she didn't know) is leaving, she decided that she would tell her mum to never take her to the Black's mansion again.

She goes down the couch and walked out of the door to find her friend, she wanted to see him one last time.

"Amelia!" A maid rushes to her and picks her up. "Where are you going?"

"My friend." Amelia replied.

"Who?" Another maid asks her.

"He give me this." She showed them the kit kat.

The maids share a look. They knew who loved to eat kit kats. "He's gone, honey."

My eyes open and I find myself awake. I look at my Apple wristwatch to check the time. It's eight in the morning. I sit up on my bed and run my fingers through my hair.

Was I asleep?

Was that a dream?

Okay that was the longest and weirdest dream I've ever had. The craziest thing is, it doesn't feel like just a dream. It feels like a memory.

I get up from the bed and head into the bathroom. It doesn't make sense.

I know that I used to go to Liam's house when I was a kid but I don't remember ever speaking with him. I don't remember anything at all.

It's so freaking weird. I've never dreamt of the younger version of myself so that is why I think it's a memory but........but how?

I wash my face with my Erno Laszlo foaming cleanser then head into the shower.

****

"Good morning." I smile as I see Adam sitting at the dinning. He's wearing a dark grey with a black shirt and a black tie underneath. He looks so sexy as always.

"Morning." He replies.

"What would you like to eat, Mrs Black?" One of the maids asks me.

"Don't worry, Nina. I'll serve myself." I say.

The table has lots of healthy food today. Great! I put some potatoes on my plate and add some salad.

"Is that all you're having?" Adam speaks.

"No, I usually buy Starbucks at school."

He takes a croissant and puts it on my plate. "Eat more."

I mentally roll my eyes. So bossy!

"Okay." I smile.

"Mr Black." Nina says and Adam and I look at her.

"I just want to..." She leans into him, pushing her boobs in his face and fixes his tie.

There is nothing wrong with his tie!

Maybe she's into him. She definitely is. Is she trying to seduce him? The nerve!

"What makes you think that you can touch me?" He asks her in a deadly tone. I look at his face, he looks like he is going to strangle her.

She quickly backs away. "I'm sor-"

"Don't ever fucking do that again!" He snaps at her and she flinches back then rushes to the kitchen.

Adam's jaw is clenched. He is really angry.

"Adam." I call his name softly.

He looks at me. He has the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen and the most beautiful face. I love his scruffy jaw.

I don't know what to say but I want to calm him down. He looks so mad. I don't know what is wrong with Nina. Maybe she wants to loose her job.

"What?" He finally speaks.

"Nothing, sorry." I mumble.

"Do you have a stylist?" He asks.

"Yes, Juliet."

"She's your PA and stylist?"

I chew on my potatoes and nod.

"She can not be both." He says.

I tilt my head. "Why not?"

"Too much work."

I look down, cutting my eggs with my knife. "Why are you even asking if I have a stylist or not?"

"The party tomorrow. Leah wants to know if you have a dress."

There's a party tomorrow? I don't know about any party or who Leah is.

"Who's Leah?" I furrow my eyebrows.

"The stylist that shops for you." Adam answers.

"You know I don't need Leah. I can buy my own clothes." I say.

"Do you want her as your stylist?" He asks softly.

"No, I told you I have Juliet." I frown.

He rolls his eyes. "She can't be your stylist and your PA."

"Yes, she can. Do you have a stylist?"

"Yes and it is not Ned."

"Well, I want Juliet as my stylist." I shrug.

"Then find another PA!" He exclaims, scowling at me.

Oh my God! He wants to have another fight.

"I had a dream last night. It felt like a memory though." I change the topic. I don't want to go into another fight or argument with him.

He takes a deep breath. "And why are you telling me this?"

"Because you were in it and you gave me a Kit-"

He frowns. "I don't want to hear it."

My eyes widen. "Are you serious?"

"Yes."

"Wow." I nod my head.

"I will ask Ned to get some people. You can interview them with Juliet." He says after we're done eating.

I shake my head. "I told you, I don't need another assistant, Adam."

"Yes, you do. You have no idea what your life is going to be like after we come this event."

Adam and I haven't had an official public appearance since the wedding.

He's been in Iceland so we didn't get the time to go to parties together. I guess this is kind of important.

"Fine, I will think about it." I give in.

His eyes meet mine. "No, no thinking about. You will get another assistant."

"I will do what I want!" I exclaim. He is seriously getting on my nerves.

He bites his lower lip then releases. "I'm your husband. I expect you to do what I say."

Why does he have to be so God damn sexy?

I roll my eyes at what he said. "What time do you think you we are? The fifth fucking century?"

"Watch your tone." He warns.

"Oh my God." I breath in disbelief.

****

"Cooper."

"You're a bad guy right?"

He laughs. "You can say that, yes."

"I want you to take me somewhere." I say and take a bite of my muffin.

After my classes ended, I stopped at a cafe. I spotted Cooper creeping so I asked him to join me.

"Where?"

"The bad side of the town. Where people do illegal and bad things." I grin.

He laughs nervously. "I'm not sure that's a good idea."

"Oh come on, don't be a buzzkill."

"Why do you even want to go there?"

"Well, I was watching Riverdale last night and I wondered if there are people like the Southside Serpents here in a Bluefall." I answer.

"The council will never allow people like that in their city but-" He takes a deep breath. "There's a place I know, not as dangerous the Southside in Riverdale though."

The past two weeks, I got to learn a lot of things about Cooper. He's twenty three, only two years older than me so it wasn't hard to catch up on so many things. He's a very funny and interesting person.

He loves Marvel movies like I do and he watches most of the tv shows I watch. Since he's always following me around, we sometimes watch the show together.

"Take me there."

He scratches the back of his head. "I'm not sure Mr Black is going to like that."

I shrug. "I don't care." Adam likes control and I really hate that. Maybe it's because he's a CEO and he's used to bossing people around.

"It's not a good idea, Amelia."

I narrow my eyes. "I guess I will have to hire another bodyguard."

He chuckles and then sips his tea.

My phone starts ringing so I answer. "Hello."

"Amelia, it's Jessica."

"Hey, Jessica. How are you doing?"

Jessica is one of my mum's assistant and she's really nice so I like her.

"I'm good, thanks for asking." She replies and I can here a smile in her voice.

"Sure, no problem."

"So your mum asked me to inform you about an anniversary party that is taking place tomorrow. She said it's your first public appearance with Adam since the wedding."

"Yeah." I reply.

I wonder who's anniversary it is.

"She said that Juliet has a dresses for you to choose."

"Okay." I mutter.

"Yeah, that's pretty much it." Jessica chuckles.

"Alright, thanks."

****

"So this is the Snipe?" I ask Cooper.

"Yeah, act cool."

"Okay."

He told me to visit places like this, I have to fit in so I wore sexy clothes and did my makeup sexy also. Smoky eyes and dark red lips. I honestly look like a bad girl.

There are cars park around and lots and lots of people hanging out.

"So where do you wanna go? There's the street fighting area and the racing area."

"Illegal racing?" I whisper and he nods in reply. "Don't the cops know about this?"

"They do but I heard that the person who runs this place is effing rich. Probably one of the council's kids."

My lips for a shape of 'O'.

"Yeah so where do you wanna go?"

"I want to see the race."

"Alright, that was way." He points at a direction with his head and we start walking.

Most of the people here are smoking or openly making out or groping each other. I nervously twist my ring as Cooper and I keep walking.

"Amelia?"

My body instantly freezes. I didn't tell any of my friends I was coming here because it's something that I honestly wanted to do alone.

I turn around. "Hey, Tyler. What are you doing here?" I fake enthusiasm.

"I think the question is, what are you doing here?" He frowns, crossing his arms over his chest.

Tyler is a typical bad boy so he obviously comes to this place to do his bad boy shit.

"I want to see what it's like so I asked Cooper to bring me."

"Good evening, sir." Cooper speaks.

"Fuck off." Tyler glares at him. Well, not everyone forgives him for being part of X.

"Come with me." Tyler drags my arm.

"No! We're going to see the race."

"Just come with me!" He tugs me harder.

"Fine, let's go Cooper."

"And why the hell are you with him? Isn't he supposed to be in hiding?"

"Not today."

We walk in silence till we arrive to a tent. Tyler goes in first. "Guys, look who I found." He says and I go in.

"Noooooo!" Everyone exclaims.

I see Camilla, Tara, Aaron and some of our other friends from Hardwood.

They're all sitting with a table in the centre and my eyes widen as I get a closer look on what's on the table. "Are those drugs? Is that cocaine?!" I exclaim.

"Yes." My Arab friend, Moh replies.

Oh my God!

"Cool." I whisper.

Everyone is just awkwardly exchanging looks so I take a seat between Camilla and Drew, who is also a guy that my friends and I hang out with sometimes.

"I love what you're wearing." Camilla says.

"Thanks."

"Look at your boobs, you look so fucking hot." She says, eyeing my boobs. God!

"Yeah, those boobs look great." Aaron winks at me and I roll my eyes.

"You look hot too, Cam." I tell her and she smiles mumbling a 'thank you'.

"Hey, chit chat time is over. Time to go home." Tyler says as he comes back into the tent.

"Who is he talking to?" I ask and some people snicker.

"I'm talking to you, Milly. Cooper is taking you home now." Tyler states.

"No! I want to see the race and I'm going to see it!" I glare at him.

"The race has already begun."

"Really? Let's go then!" I grab Camilla's hand and we head to the racing area. She knows her way around this place and I'm really surprised about that.

"Do you come here often?" I ask her.

"Not really."

"And the drugs?"

Honestly, I'm surprised to see her there. I'm not surprised about Tyler and Tara, they're both kind of bad.

"Most people in college take drugs, Amelia." She says in a bored tone.

The cold air breezes on me, causing my hair to fall across my face so I push it away."I know but you don't act like someone that does drugs."

"Yeah because I only take them or come to this place when I'm going through stuff." She replies, also fixing her hair.

She's been kind of weird lately. I haven't missed that something might be going on with her and now, I feel bad for not asking.

"You know I'm always here if you need to talk, right?" I tell her sincerely.

"Yeah." She smiles.

"He's almost here!" Drew says excitedly.

"Who?"

"Finn Asher. He always wins the race."

"Always?" I ask, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, he never looses." And just as he says, that, I see two cars racing through the finish line. A Zento is at the front, followed by a Hennessy Venom.

The distance between the cars is not much though and just as the Zento is about to cross line, the Hennessy goes on an unbelievable speed and passes it to the finish line.

Everyone starts cheering and whistling. A couple of girls are standing behind me, screaming and I feel like my ear is going to burst. A guy comes out of the Hennessy and their screams get louder.

"That's him." Drew says.

"We love you, Finn." The girls behind me shout out and my eyes drift to the other car. The person that comes out of it takes off their helmet and my mouth drops.

It's the girl from my business class. The one that called Tyler a jerk. She's wearing a racing overall while Finn is in normal clothes.

"That girl goes to Hardwood." I tell Camilla.

"Yeah." She says dismissively as she texts on her phone.

"Her name is Winter. She's also one of the smartest students in our year." Drew informs me.

"Really?"

"Yeah and guessed what? She used to hook up with Tyler and they kind of had a falling out so she hooked up with Jacob in revenge."

My eyes widen. "You're kidding!"

He opens his mouth but he gets cuts off by the screaming girls. "Finn! Finn!" And when he finally turns to our direction, they start screaming again.

"Guys, I'm out of here." I tell Drew and Camilla.

"Name?" Finn asks as he stands in front of us. He's looking directly at me so I reply, "I wasn't the one calling your name."

"I know." He smiles. Even though, it's dark. I can tell how attractive he is and the most unique thing about him is that his hair is dyed white which is cool.

"Excuse me." One of the fan girls says so I move away, giving them the chance to meet their idol.

I turn around, trying to squeeze myself out of the crowd. I wonder where Cooper is.

As I'm walking to the car, I see some older guys smoking and some are even drinking.

"Hey, sexy." One of them says.

"Wanna come have fun with us? You're lucky we love to share!" Another says seductively.

"Back off!" I hear Cooper's voice behind.

"Ooohh, she has a boyfriend."

"Amelia, this way." Cooper pulls me away from the gross guys and leads me to a different direction.

When we reach the car, I see Tyler leaning against it and as he sees us, he opens the door for me. "Don't come here again."

I roll my eyes. "Yes, dad."

****

"Where were you?"

I look up and see Adam standing in the entrance hall of the house. Behind him, I see Ned and an unfamiliar female who's wearing a security uniform.

"Nicole's house." I lie and then Nicole comes comes out of one of the sitting rooms with a bowl of popcorn in her hand.

Shit!

'Sorry.' She mouths at me, looking nervous.

I look back at Adam who now has a challenging look on his face. "I'm going to ask you again. Where were you?"

"Um....I..." I fake a cough. My heart is racing. Gosh! Why am I intimidated by him?

"Why do you even care? It's none of your business." I say, looking away from his eyes.

He swears under his breath then shoves out his phone from his pocket and shows it to my face.

There's a picture of me, at the snipe. Standing between Drew and Camilla. Fuck!

I nervously look at Adam and swallow. His jaw is clenched, hard. "You went to the fucking Snipe?" He speaks in a low, scary voice.
