Chapter 48

DEREK
I arrived at their house and knocked on the door.
Cindy opened up and immediately she saw me she yelled
Cindy: Derek is here
I covered my ear and smiled
Me: don't pull out my ear drums
Cindy: hahaha, sorry. Come inside your friend is here
Me: Blue?
Cindy: not her
Just then Blue ran to me in the living room and hugged me passionately.
As if I'm a soldier who she thought was dead but I came back home alive
Blue : Derek I missed you
Me: I missed you too. I've been trying to call you
Audrey : hi Derek
Me: xup sexy
Blue : don't call her that
She was still clinging to my body
I chuckled
Cindy: come on, Adrian is here
Me: huh, which Adrian?
I heard my name and I turned to look
Me: Adrian???
He walked slowly towards me
Me: I don't understand. I thought you were kidnapped.....
Cindy: Blue saved him
Blue glared at Cindy
Cindy: sorry.....
Me: can someone please explain something to me
Audrey sighed and rolled her eyes
Audrey : she saw him at a warehouse where she was sent to work in Stirling, locked up in a dark corner. She rescued him and brought him here immediately
Me: what
Blue : I didn't expect to see him at all. I didn't even know it was him, it was when I took him to the place I was staying that I recognized him
Me: oh my goodness, Adrian are you okay? Did they hurt you?
I moved to where he was sitting and stared down at him
Adrian: I'm fine
He didn't look up, I guess he's still angry for ruining his wedding.
Well look at this
The very person he threw out of his life saved it for him
I sighed
Me: should we announce it yet?
Adrian : no, but you can tell my parents. But let them keep it a secret for now
Blue came to me and held my hand
Blue : Derek, who exactly did you come to see? Me or Adrian?
He looked up with a surprise look on his face
Me: well I came to see you but....
Blue : no buts, let's go
She dragged me
Me: huh, wait......
Adrian
I watched as she and Derek climbed up the stairs, hand in hand
I shook my head and Cindy sat beside me
Cindy: prince, I've prepared your room upstairs. Let's go so you'll rest
I nodded then stood up
Audrey : I'm going to check that car out before she returns it tomorrow
She went out
I followed Cindy upstairs
We passed by Blue's room
She was laughing happily with Derek
I sighed as Cindy opened the door.
Cindy: sorry it's nothing compared to your chamber but it's still comfortable
I smiled
Me: I like it
We entered and she closed the door behind her.
Cindy: I personally prepared it. I made sure the bed is soft and the pillows are comfy
I smiled and sat on the bed
Wow it's really soft, just the way I like it
Cindy: is it okay?
I pulled her to sit on the bed beside me
Me: see for yourself
We laughed
She bounced on the bed
Me: and it's bouncy
Cindy: when I was a kid, my mom always put me to bed but immediately she offs the light and locks the door. I bounce on my bed like it was a bounce house
She laughed and I smiled
I looked at her
She's beautiful
Her lips are love shaped, full and pink.
Her hair is pretty long, same color as Blue's hair.
And she's really slim
Cindy: come let's check the garden. Or you want to rest?
I seriously needed rest but if I should be left idle now, my mind and conscience is going to fill me with regrets and depression.
Cindy: don't worry, blue flowers are there
I smiled
Me: what's your favorite flower?
Cindy: lily
Me: make sure you pick some lilies for me and keep them here
Cindy: huh, you like lilies too
Me: I just began to like them
I stood up and we went out
We got to Blue's door
Cindy: oh no, I forgot my hair band in your room. I'll be right back
She left and I leaned on the wall
I could hear Derek's voice
I wonder what he's telling Blue
Then I heard Blue's voice
Blue : believe me, I've never had feelings for Adrian at all. I even prefer you to him
They laughed
My heart sank to my feet
I didn't even know what to think
Should I be sad?
But I always knew she didn't love me
Why are her words affecting me?
None of this would have happened if Derek allowed me to have a peaceful wedding with someone who actually loves me
I wonder how Gladys is?
Is the baby truly for Derek?
Why can't I just have a perfect love life just like others?
I love Blue but she doesn't love me
Gladys loves me but I don't love her
This is frustrating
And what is keeping Cindy so long?
Blue's door opened and she came out holding Derek
I looked at them and I know Derek could see through my heart
Derek: uhmm Blue, why don't you excuse us
Blue : I don't wanna leave you
I scoffed and looked away
She smiled
Blue : okay
Then she pecked his cheek and turned to go
My eyes widened
She turned back to him
Blue : don't stay long
Then she left
Derek stood motionless
I guess he's also as surprised as I am
Derek: it's not what you think
I shook my head
Derek: I really don't understand her anymore. But I think she still loves you
I looked up at him
Me: still loves me? Dude, she never loved me in the first place
I began to move away
He pulled me back
Derek: trust me, she does. I think she's pained. She needs you now
Me: seriously dude, if you continue talking on her behavior and that fictional love that you made up, I'm gonna lose my temper
He sighed and put his two hands on his waist
Derek: well I wouldn't blame you for that, this is the very first time we talk about a girl everytime we meet for complete two months. I mean, it's worth rising your temper. Knowing the kind of person you are
We laughed
Me: you have a lot of explaining to do young man
Derek: I seduced her, she wasn't pregnant then. And you never went back to her again, so the baby is definitely mine
I wasn't surprised
Me: but I really wanted marrying her
Derek: you're just depressed buddy
He tapped my shoulder and I smiled
Derek: so what are we going to do about your abductors. I mean who are they?
I opened my mouth to talk but someone yelled from behind us
Cindy: found it!!!
Derek: ahh Cindy, my ear drums
She laughed and we smiled
Cindy: sorry
Me: what took you so long?
Cindy: I did something else
Me: what did you do?
Cindy: you'll find out
Me: let's go.. We'll talk later pal
Derek: sure
We walked down the stairs and met Blue turning on the television.
She looked back then scoffed
Blue : I thought it was Derek
I ignored her and continued walking
Cindy: no it's Prince Adrian and I....
She folded her arms and watched us going to the yard
I smirked
I'm not going to give her a space in my heart anymore
Or else I'm going to die of heartbreak
