His Sugar |√|Words: 6061

Hey!

What's up!

So I am back with a new chapter.

Let's begin.

I woke up and took a shower. I decided to wear a grey t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans. Today was the last day of our exams and then finally prom before our graduation.

I looked at the formulas for the last time.

"Dan are you ready?" I shouted.

"Yes I am" he said and entered my room.

We went to school. Currently I was sitting and was revising the answer sheet. I submitted it and then went outside. Everybody was talking how tough the paper was.

I saw Scott and Dan rushing towards Dan's car in a hurry.

I ran towards them.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Ele go home" Scott said with a serious look on his face.

"But-" I said but Dan interrupted "She's coming with us." he said. I sat on the backseat of the car.

Both Dan and Scott looked tensed.

"Where are we going?" I asked.

"Lucy is in jail and dad is injured." Dan replied.

"What happened? Is Dad okay? Is-" I said curiously.

I can't lose him, again.

"Don't get stressed. We'll find out once we reach the police station." Dan said with an assuring look on his face.

We went to the police station and I literally ran towards the office where dad was.

"Dad are you okay?" I asked and hugged him.

My eyes filled with tears.

"Honey don't cry, dad is here." He said.

"Yes" I said and wiped my tears.

"Scott needs you." Dad said with a sad look.

I went to another room and Scott was talking to the inspector. His eyes were filled with mixed emotions. I sat next to him and held his hand.

I didn't know what was going on. Yet I didn't said anything.

"Excuse me" the inspector said and went out.

He looked into my eyes and then he hugged me.

"I miss him. I remember those nights when my mom cried, I remember those days when I looked at his photo whenever I missed him. They told that my dad was somewhere with another woman. They were proved wrong after one year and the only truth came. Someone killed my dad." He said and hid his face in the crook of my neck. He held me closer to him. I patted his back lightly to comfort him.

Lucy was the one who killed his dad. That man whom she was obsessed with, but he never gave her attention.

"Everything will be fine. Lucy will be punished." I said angrily.

Then we suddenly heard a noise.

"I am innocent. I've not done anything." Said the familiar feminine voice. It was Lucy.

We stood up and Scott walked angrily towards her.

"You bitch, I'll kill you." Scott shouted.

"You're Sophia's son right?" She asked angrily.

"I killed her husband. I loved him so much but he rejected me for her." She shouted but soon realized that everyone was here.

The police arrested her and pulled her away from us.

I held his hand tightly. I didn't let go even for a second.

I went out of the police station with Scott. He seemed to be in a deep thought.

I looked at Scott. He was staring at me. I turned to face him but he was still stating at me.

"Let me take you somewhere." He said.

He took out his car keys and he drove me to some place. He held my hands and led me to a beautiful garden.

"Whenever I would be sad about something, my dad brought me to this place. He would read story books for me. He would teach me about many things. Ever since I lost him, I never came back here until today. I wanted to show you this place." He said. His eyes were teary. He was holding my hand too tight as if he was scared to let go.

I looked at him and cupped his cheeks until pulling him closer to kiss him. I stroked his hair. He pulled me more closer by my waist. We pulled apart and now we were sitting on a bench near a big tree. His hands were on my waist.

He yawned. He looked really tired.

"Are you sleepy?" I asked.

"Put your head on my shoulder and take a nap." I said and smiled at me.

He held my arm and rested his head on my shoulder. In a few seconds he drifted off to sleep.

I felt my eyelids getting heavy and I didn't realised I fell asleep.

I opened my eyes and I saw I was sitting on Scott's lap. My head was rested on his chest. His arms were wrapped around my waist. We were in his car.

"How did we get in here?" I asked confusingly.

"Just used a little bit of pixy dust." He said and winked at me.

"Didn't knew you were into fairy stuff." I said and smirked at me.

"No I'm not." He said and narrowed his eyes at me.

"You felt asleep. I picked you up and brought you here. You're a heavy sleeper." He said and chuckled.

I yawned. He kept staring at me.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked.

"I love you." He whispered and kissed my forehead.

"I love you too." I said as I pulled him closer to kiss me.

I love his kisses.

1 week later

I was in Scott's house.

"Honey thank God you're here." Sophia said to me.

"Is everything alright Soph?" I asked.

"Yes everything's alright. I am a bit nervous. I'm gonna tell Scott about Parker." She said nervously.

Parker was her boyfriend. She told me before because if Scott gets angry sad about it I could handle it.

"Everything's gonna be okay. I'm sure he'll understand." I said and smiled at her.

She pulled me into a hug.

Just when we pulled apart, Scott entered the room and looked at us with curiosity.

"Honey, I wanted tell you something." She said nervously.

"Yes mom?" He asked.

"You remember Parker?" She asked.

"The guy you were dating, right?" He asked.

"He proposed me. He asked me to get married to him. I could say no if you want to." She said sadly.

Scott had a unreadable expression on his face until it changed into a happy one. He smiled at her.

"Mom I am really happy for you." He said and smiled at her. She pulled him into a hug. She started crying.

"Mom don't cry. He's a nice guy." Scott said and smiled at him.

"I'm glad you think that." She said and she smiled through tears.

"I'm gonna steal your girlfriend." She said and started explaining need how she needed my help for the wedding.

Scott smiled at me and I smiled back at him.

Everything was falling back to it's pieces.

Hey guys!

Of course this isn't the end.

But the end of this book is getting closer.

I'm starting to miss you already!

Take care! I love you.

Until next time :)
