The car was silent as Sebastian drove us from the most expensive shopping trip, I've ever been on to our next suprise destination.
"Sebastian, where are you taking me?" I questioned as I began fidgeting with the chanel bag, he'd bought me so much already, I felt really guilty.
"It's a been a while since it was just to two of us." He commented, completely ignoring my question.
"It has to be cheap, okay? You've already spent so much on me."
"And I will continue to spend more, money is not an issue." He reminded me, placing his warm hand on my thigh and gently caressing it.
I turned to face him, his eyes hadn't left the road but his hand was still slowly stroking my thigh, "You don't have to."
"I want to." He turned to face me and smiled.
I beamed back at him.
September Song began playing on the radio, breaking out comfortable silence.
But it felt nice to just be with him.
Yesterday, I'd fallen asleep before he had the chance to explain anything.
"Are we here yet?" I questioned taking his phone and typing in his password, which was obviously 'SOOOR.' I'd changed it when he'd gotten a new phone and suprisingly he hadn't changed it.
"No," He continued stroking my thigh, raising the Ted Baker dress that he'd bought me and insisted I wore, "Soon."
I swiped through his million apps until I landed on piano tiles 2.
I scrolled through the music, clicking on 'River Flows in You.' by Yiruma. I watched the advert and began to play.
"This is so the song that I'm going to play at my wedding." I blurted out, clicking faster on the tiles as the song began to speed up.
"Is that so?" Sebastian replied, turning into a narrower road.
"Yeah, I don't know why, I just really like it. I just find it really like romantic, and like relaxing." I shrugged, pressing on the wrong key.
"Definetly romantic." He teased, parking the car and stepping out, before rushing to the other side and opening the door for me, "But I'll.. er... keep that in mind."
"Close your eyes." He brought his lips to my ear, sending shivers down my spine. I closed my eyes and listened to him, lock up the car door before holding my waist and leading me inside, "I can only hope you like my suprise."
I felt the A/C against my skin as we entered the building and heard music blasting through very loud speakers as we neared out destination.
"Open your eyes." He whispered, I opened my eyes and looked around the hall.
So many people, but my eyes landed on a girl wearing a baby blue dress and grinning at me.
"Anita!" I squealed, rushing over towards her and pulling her into a tight hug.
It had been ages since, I've seen her.
"Can't breathe." She coughed out as I loosened my tight grip, but still didn't let go of her, incase this was just a dream. I didn't want it to be a dream.
"Do you like-?" Before he had the chance to finish his sentence my arms were around his neck and I had practically jumped on him.
"Like? Sebastian, I love! But how did you do it?" I asked as I looked from both Anita to Sebastian, who were exchanging awkward glances.
No friend could ever replace Anita, and was one of a kind.
"He kidnapped me." Anita blurted out and Sebastian's made a face and rolled his eyes, "Thank God, Amber was with Aaron or else." She sighed and ran a hand through her hair.
"We agreed not to tell her about that, anyway it wasn't like that. I just politely forced her into the car." Sebastian protested, making us giggle.
Anita rolled her eyes and brushed out her dress, "Then he gave me this lovely dress and BAM! Next thing you know, I'm in a room filled with rich people." She exclaimed, grinning.
"It's my opening party," Sebastin explained, "But I wanted you to be there." I didn't have to stand on my tip-toes to kiss him, now that I was in these heels.
"Thank you, Sebastian." I whispered against his lips as I followed Anita, who practically dragged me to the dance floor.
Anita and I danced to every song that played, we only knew a few but that didn't stop us.
I couldn't help but watch Sebastian as he mingled with the other guests.
I began to internally count his drinks. Four. I didn't think he had a drinking problem but after what Olivia told me, I couldn't help it.
I blinked, snapping myself back into reality, only to realize Sebastian and Anita were gone.
"Boo." He whispered in my ear making me jump up. I placed my hand on my chest to steady my racing heart and turned around to glare at him. He took my hand in his and led me to the food table where there was less people, "How are you liking here, so far?" He picked up what looked like chocolate souffle and a spoon.
"It's like a dream come true." I whispered, opening my mouth. He put the heavenly souffle past my lips and I let out a sigh of pleasure, "It's so good. Taste?"
"No thanks, I don't like sweet things." He told me honestly.
"So Jacob wasn't lying when I made that pie." I raised an eyebrow and he awkwardly scratched the back of his neck, "How can you not like sweet things? Does that mean you don't like chocolate?"
"I prefer dark chocolate, but milk chocolate is fine." He laughed at my reaction to his statement, "You're adorable." He chuckled, leaning in to wipe some chocolate of my face. He raised his thumb to his mouth and sucked it off.
I turned away in embarrassment, grumbling about how annoying he was.
"Come let's dance." He held out his hand, as 'You are the reason by Calum Scott.' began playing. I looked around the room at the other couples, slow dancing to this song before accepting Sebastian's offer.
"Sebastian, there are other people here and what about-."
He cut me off, "It doesn't matter, Rylee. Nobody else matters, its just us."
He pulled me close to him and placed his hands on my hips while I placed my hands on his shoulders.
Our eyes locked, for what felt like forever, neither of us blinking, just slowly swaying to the slow music.
It was as if I was walking on air while dancing with Sebastian, he made me forget everyone and everything that was worrying me. It felt as though we were the only two people in the room and nobody else mattered.
Just us two.
"I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you,"
This was the most intimate, I had ever been with a man, or anybody for that matter.
"And fix what I've broken
'Cause I need you to see
That you are the reason."
He spun me around and pulled me back to his chest as the song began to slowly come to an end.
We just stood and stared at each other, my heart was racing.
"Fvck, you are so beautiful, Rylee."
Before I had the chance to thank him, he had pressed his lips to mine. Our lips moved in sync, as the next song began playing.
Though these heels were killing me, I felt like I could stand up here and dance with Sebastian for hours. He made me feel complete.
I ran my fingers down his light stubble, as he deepened the kiss.
"God, I love you so much." He pulled me closer to him before kissing me again. I wished we could stay like this forever.
But sadly, we had to leave the dance floor after Sebastian got a phone call from work.
He seemed hesitant to leave, but I insisted work was far more important - and he also needed to drop a drunk Anita back home.
I watched as he drove off with Anita, both of them blowing me kisses and I couldn't help but beam.
My phone buzzed from my purse.
A text from Noire.

Instead of driving me home, I instructed Lex to bring Olive and I to Westfield where we'd be meeting Noire.
"This isn't what Sebastian instructed." He grumbled, stopping the car, so Olive and I could get out.
"I haven't seen her in ages, anyway Sebastian isn't the boss of me." I argued, taking Olive out of her carseat.
"Rylee he just wants you to be safe, if you could just wait here and I'll call Marlowe or one of the other security guards..."
I shook my head, remembering Marlowe the snitch. "I'll be fine, if I'm not back at 12:30, please pick up Oliver from nursery." I instructed, as he helped me take out Olives stroller.
I placed Olive in the stroller and strapped her up, even though she protested for quite a while, speaking angrier words of gibberish trying to get her point across.
"Thank you Lex. Bye." I waved, strolling into the shopping centre and looking for where I was supposed to meet Noire.
I walked into the crowded foot court, passed people of all ages going to the five fast food shops dumped in this food court.
I saw Noire sitting down at a small table waving her hand about like a lunatic as she saw me coming.
"Hey Rylee!" She greeted, throwing her arms around me and pulling me into a warm hug, "It's been ages," she looked down at Olive who was just staring at her and crouched down, "Hey baby, it's been ages since I've seen you. Last time I saw you, you were just an ickle-wickle baby." She gushed tickling under Olive's chin, making her squeal in delight.
"Hi Noire, I've missed you." I pulled out a seat and looked down at the food that she'd already bought for herself.
She noticed me staring and smiled sheepishly, "I got a little hungry." She blushed staring at her four empty packets of McDonald's chips and a box of Mcnuggets.
"A little." We both laughed.
Our conversation quickly shifted from food, to our personal lives, which meant a lot of questions about Sebastian.
"Last time I saw you, you were completely wasted and he was taking you 'home'." she smirked.
"He took me to a hotel," She raised her perfectly threaded eyebrow, "Nothing happened."
"Is he still with Avery, or whatever her name is?" She asked leaning forward and stealing one of my chips.
"Yes." I replied, taking a sip of my 7up.
She rolled her eyes and took a bite of my chicken nugget, "I hate her, and I haven't even met her."
"...But I think he's planning on leaving her." I blurted out, thinking about what he said to me yesterday, "We spoke yesterday, about him wanting it to be real, like he doesn't want us to have to pretend nothing is going on between us, if that makes any sense..."
"What?! Rylee?! That's huge?! I can't believe it! My ship is finally going to set sail, after months of waiting. He's leaving her. God is good, I don't know what slapped some sense into him but I need to find it and thank it." She blabbered, taking another chicken nugget, "..But three kids that's a lot to take on, mommy Rylee."
"Shut up," I laughed throwing at chip at her, "I love them already, and I get paid for looking after them, and now that Olivia is at school and Oliver at nursery, things have just gotten a whole load easier."
"You're happy, right?" She questioned, taking Olive from her buggy and planting a sloppy kiss on her hair.
"..Yeah." I nodded slowly, "Yeah, I'm happy."
"Yay!" She sqeauled, "Sylee, for life. My best friend is happy!" She announced to some random guy walking past our table.
"Oh my God, Noire. What the hell?" I questioned laughing, as I stole one of her chips, for payback, "Anyways, enough about me how have you been, last time I checked, you were head over heels for some guy."
She cringed, "I don't even want to talk about that prick."
"I'm guessing things didn't go well."
"To hell they didn't. He was such an ass, all he did was talk about his ex, consistently, it's like he was still in love with her or something, and, don't even get me started, he's so controlling, telling me what I can and can't order. He's lucky I didn't beat the black out of him, dumb prick."
"Damn." Was all I was able to say, "He must've been a really rubbish boyfriend."
"Worse than rubbish," she grumbled, finishing off her drink, "Does your man have any like siblings or cousins that you could maybe set me up with?" She asked hopefully and I quickly shook my head.
"Not that I know of." I lied, not wanting to even mention Jacob.
"Dammit." She grumbled under her breath, "I guess I'll just die alone." She sighed.
We stayed with Noire for about thirty more minutes before she was called back to work and we had to say our goodbyes.
"Bye babes, we have to do this again sometime." She gushed, pulling me into a tight hug.
"Soon." I promised pulling away, she bent down and gave Olive a quick kiss before waving her final goodbyes, until next time.

I clambered into the car, and slammed the door shut behind me.
"You normally open and closes the doors for me. What happened?" I questioned Lex, putting on my seatbelt.
"God have you arms and legs, use 'em" He grumbled starting the car. I opened my mouth to say some snarky reply but I noticed the way he was glaring at me and decided against it.
Don't know what crawled up his ass and layed eggs.
"Why so cranky?" I asked in a sing-song voice, as I leaned forward to switch on the radio. In my pocket, my phone vibrated.
"Rylee. Leave it." He growled, Lex started the car and began driving quickly down the road.
"Baby on board." I snapped, "What the hell is wrong with you?!" I typed in my password and opened the message that I'd got from.. 'unknown number.'
Two pictures. Five words.
'Now he'll definetly marry her.'
And the picture, Audri, sitting on the toilet holding a pregnancy test. She was crying.
Why was she crying? Because she's pregnant you dimwit! Isn't being pregnant supposed to be a good thing? Wait who's the father?
Is Sebastian...? No! It can't be! It's not! Is it...? No it's not. I trust Sebastian completely, he's not interested in Audrianna. The baby is not his.
Lord please let the baby not be his.
It can't be! He's never slept with her. I think. I hope.
"Rylee," Lex's voice brought me back to reality, "Rylee, are you alright? Why do you look like that?"
I chuckled as realistically as I could, "Haha.. just saw this really hard... riddle?"
He narrowed his eyes, but didn't say anything.
Why did Audrianna have to get pregnant now? I mentally facepalmed and slumped back in my seat.
Soon Lex and I were driving down a narrow road, surrounded by trees. I raised my eyes, looking up at the marvellous view.
That's when I saw it. The black car speeding towards us.
It has clearly spotted our black jeep, but decided not to stop.
"Lex!" I called out, my heart racing, as I pulled Olive's blanket closer towards her little body.
He swerved. Trying to get out of the way.
Then we crashed.

No-one. I repeat. No-one is Dead!
This is my favourite chapter :)
What's yours?
ð¹Anywho, Rylee knows Audrianna is pregnant, but who is the father?
ð¹Any thoughts on the car crash??
