THE BRAUNS MANSION**
Arianna blinked twice as she stared at Reuben was looking at her while smiling. Did she hear it correctly? Is her ear malfunctioning?
She stared at him dumbfounded for a good 5 minutes before getting back to herself.
“M.. Marriage?” Arianna stuttered and Reuben nodded.
“If my memory is still working well, you turned 18 yesterday so you’re ripe for marriage.. Don’t worry, though I’ve never seen the guy but he comes from a very wealthy family and I’m sure they’ll treat you well..” Reuben said and made to touch her shoulder but Arianna took a step back.
A frown slowly settled on Reuben’s face.
“I’m.. I’m not getting married to anyone if it’s not my boyfriend” Arianna said boldly.
“Boyfriend?”
“Yeah.. I’m dating Nathaniel” Arianna said.
“That retched poor boy!! Are you planning to bring down my reputation to that level!!” Reuben immediately flared up.
“Point of correction dad,, he’s not retched poor boy. He’s now a celebrity who’s paving his way to the top at a fast pace” Arianna said.
“How dare you talk back at me!!” Reuben raised his hand to hit her.
Arianna closed her eyes but his hand never landed on her. It stopped right in front of him.
“Even if he becomes the next Bill Gates, I’ll never approve of your relationship. Break up with him,, you’re getting engaged next week” Reuben said.
“I’m not..” Arianna said calmly and Reuben’s eyes wide-ned.
This is the first time Arianna opposed to his orders.
“Ask me anything and I’ll obey you but breaking up with Nathaniel,, I can’t and I’ll never will.. I’m sorry dad” Arianna said.
“You heard her right Reuben,, don’t force her to do what she doesn’t want to.. It’s pointless and besides I approve of her relationship with Nathaniel. He’s a good guy” Beatrice said and came them stood beside Arianna.
Reuben glared at them with so much anger in his eyes.
“You two,, you’ll pay for this!! And you ungrateful kid!, you’re getting engaged next week whether you like it or not” Reuben snapped and barged out.
Arianna’s shoulder fell.
“Why can’t dad ever be happy and support me in anything I do. Yesterday was my birthday but he said nothing about it,, he only think about himself” Arianna said sadly.
“I’m sorry Arianna.” Beatrice hug-ged Arianna and kis-sed her hair.

MORNING, THE D•D’S RESIDENCE**
Dean sighed as he watched Gianna sleep on his bed. Her long hair scattered on her face and she pouted her pink li-ps, looking so cute and innocent.
Well she was the one who insisted on staying with him so he had no choice than to let her stay since today was a Saturday.
He sighed again when he remembered all what she told him yesterday.
“She loves me? But why?” He said inwardly.
He wouldn’t deny that he felt a little bit more better than how he felt yesterday but what disturbed him now was Gianna.
Will he really be able to love her back? He doesn’t want it to be like he’s using her to get over Ca-ssie and after what Ca-ssie did to him, loving another will be very difficult.
Gianna slowly moved on the bed before she opened her eyes. She smiled when she saw Dean sitting on a chair, starring at her.
She could also see a pillow and blanket on a couch. Does that mean he slept there??
“Good morning” She smiled.
“Morning” Dean smiled shortly.
“How are you feeling now?” Gianna asked.
“Better.. Thanks to you” Dean said and stood up from the chair.
“Hmm” Gianna nodded shyly.
She couldn’t believe how shameless she was yesterday. How she enjoyed the make out they had yesterday and how she shamelessly confessed to him.
“Shameless should be my middle name” She cursed herself inwardly.
But still, she doesn’t regret anything. Be it what happened or what she said, she doesn’t regret.
“Dean..”
“Gianna..”
They called at the same time
“About yesterday..” Dean began
“I mean everything I said.. I really love you Dean” Gianna said and looked down.
“But what if I don’t reciprocate your feelings?” Dean said, sitting down on the bed beside her.
“At least I tried.. Ca-ssie is an obvious fóol for neglecting such a rare guy like you. Someone who was loyal to her for a year despite the distance.. I,, I can’t miss this opportunity” Gianna said and immediately bit her li-ps.
“This big mouth!!” She cursed inwardly.
Dean smiled and cupped her cheek. She looked at him.
“I’ll try my best to forget about Ca-ssie and reciprocate your feelings but I can’t guarantee you total success” Dean said.
Gianna smiled too and they began staring at each other. Gianna slowly began leaning in when the suddenly swung open.
“Dean, I have been thinking about our upcoming fan meeting and-” Nathaniel paused when he saw them in that position.
Wait,, how did Gianna get here??
“Okay,,, what is happening?” Nathaniel asked.
“You’re interrupting something important.. That’s what’s happening” Gianna scoffed and Dean chuckled before he stood up from the bed.
“I’ll be downstairs” He said and dragged Nathaniel out of his room before closing the door.
“What is Gianna doing in there? Where you two about to kis-s? What’s happening?” Nathaniel asked all at once.
“Long story,, who’s to cook?” Dean asked.
“You of course” Nathaniel said.
“But I cooked last time” Dean frowned and they immediately began arguing.

THE HOWARDS, 10AM**
“This stubborn child! Where could she be again? Why isn’t she answering my calls!!” Grayson ranted as she dialed Gianna’s number but it still wasn’t pa-ssing throu-gh.
Well last night, she texted him that she won’t be coming back home and when he called to ask where she is, she switched off her phone.
Camilla who was laying on the couch while looking at him chuckled.
“I swear if she one day comes back with a pregnancy or so,, that guy is gonna take responsibility!!” Grayson kept ranting while pacing to and fro
“Calm down cupcake..” Camilla said.
They heard the door open and Gianna walked in while smiling widely. Grayson immediately rushed to her and opened the door of the house.
He could see a car driving off.
“Who’s that guy? Why is he dropping you off?” Grayson asked.
“It’s Dean” Gianna replied.
“Dean? So it’s really a guy! Gianna tell me what are you hiding from me.. Don’t tell me you slept with him” Grayson said, walking behind her.
“Of course!!” Gianna smirked
“What!!” Grayson exclaimed, holding his chest.
“He was so tender and caring” Gianna gushed as she walked to her room.
“Gianna!! If you get pregnant!! I swear,, you’re leaving this house!!”
“We used protections” Gianna smirked.
“What!! I did not raise you that way..”
“I need to have my bath Gray” Gianna said and shut the door on his face.
“Gianna!! Gianna!! Open this door we’re not done talking!!”
Gianna leaned on the door and held her tummy laughing silently.
Camilla was also on the couch,, dying of laughter
★★★★★
“Look! It’s a plush toy!” Arianna pointed at a toy she saw in a sto-re.
“You have almost 20 of those baby..” Nathaniel said and Arianna frowned.
He sighed.
“Let’s buy one then..” Nathaniel said.
“Thanks bunny” She giggled and pecked his li-ps before they walked to the sto-re. Nathaniel shook his head, she’ll definitely be the end of him
They were both wearing matching outfits. Nathaniel was putting on a black T-shirt which had a skeleton drawn on it with a white jean, black and white sneakers. He had a nose mask on.
Arianna was putting same T-shirt but with ripped mini skirt and same sneakers. Her hair was up in a ponytail..
Some people couldn’t help but stare at them and how cute they looked together, little did they know it was Nathaniel.
“Which one do you prefer.. The puppy plush toy or the bunny one.. Let’s take both” Arianna said excitedly.
“Baby..” Nathaniel sighed.
“Bunny..” Arianna pouted cutely.
“Can you stop acting cute..” Nathaniel pinched her cheek before paying for both the toys.
She giggled before they left with the toys in a bag..
“The boys and I have to attend a fan meeting in new York next week. Looks like our album is selling really fast” Nathaniel said.
“That means you’ll be away from me” Arianna pouted sadly.
“But I’m still happy your career is growing. Me too, once we finish highschool.. I’m planning on enrolling into a modeling college” Arianna said
“That’ll be cool. Imagine a singer getting married to popular model” Nathaniel said and Arianna giggled.
She sighed when she remembered about her father.
“Speaking of next week, my dad is back and he wants me to get engaged to some total stranger” Arianna said.
“What!! Is he màd!!” Nathaniel abruptly stopped.
“I already told him I’m not getting engaged to any guy.. He can’t possibly force me” Arianna said.
“Think I need to talk to him” Nathaniel said.
“No! Just let him be,, it’ll only worsen things” Arianna said.
Nathaniel sighed and just nodded..
★★★★★
PLANE**
A young guy could be seen sitting in the plane and he had a frown on his face as he stared out of the window, looking at the clouds the plane flew across
He was dressed in all black, looking like a complete bad boy and his hair was styled to the left adding more on his handsomeness.
“Michael, get ready we’re landing in California in 15 minutes” Noelle said
“I already told you guys I don’t want to go to California mom! I want to stay in Korea with my girls..” Michael frowned.
“Sorry to burst your bubbles but we’re going back to California.. Besides as the heir of the Patterson, you have a company to manage there, not fuc-k ing girl around” Robert (Michael’s father) said.
“And for the millionth time.. I want to be a doctor,, not some boring CEO” Michael sighed, pinching his brows.
“Michael!”
“Also why should I get engaged to some random girl I’ve never met before huh? What if she’s ugly or skinny…” Michael ranted more.
“Don’t say that,, Arianna Brauns is from a wealthy family and she’s quite beautiful too. Just look at her picture” Noelle said and showed him the picture.
Michael glanced at it and slowly smiled.
“Well she’s pretty.. Maybe this engagement stuff isn’t a bad idea” He muttered and slowly smiled.
“See? That’s the spirit son!!”
★★★★★
THE D•D’S RESIDENCE**
“Do you really have to go?” Linda pouted.
“I’m sorry but yes,, besides it’s next week Tuesday and it’s just for three days” Cole said.
They were both sitting in the living room, watching a movie while feeding each other popcorn.
“Three days is too long. Who’s li-ps will I kis-s for three days!!” Linda whined and Cole chuckled.
“Instead of whining why don’t we start the kis-sing session now, so that we won’t miss each other that much once we’re away” Cole said.
Linda smirked and immediately straddled him.
“I like that.” She muttered and claimed his li-ps.
Cole kis-sed her back while his hand rubbed her a-ss.
★★★★★
THEODORE’S PLACE**
Since today was a Saturday, Theodore was busy on his phone while laying on his bed.
The old woman he lives with, went out to buy something so it was just him and Jasmine at him.
“Theo” He heard Jasmine’s voice outside his room.
“Come in” He said, his face buried on his phone.
Jasmine opened the door and came in with a hairdryer and hair brush.
“Can you help me dry my hair? Grandma isn’t yet back and my hair is all w-et and tangled” Jasmine said.
Theodore gro-aned and looked up. His breathing hitched at what he saw..
“What kind of temptation is this” He thought.
She was putting on a pink T-shirt which ended just beneath her a-ss exposing her fresh long legs and he could see how her hardened n*pples traced on the shirt, signifying she was putting nothing beneath.
Well she just had a shower.
“Theo?” She called, blinking innocently. Her moderate br**sts dangled inside the shirt as she moved.
Theodore shook his head and sat up, chasing away all sort of demonic thoughts in his head.
“S.. Sure” Theodore stuttered and stood up from the bed.
Jasmine smiled and socketed the hairdryer before sitting down on a stool.
Theodore took it from her and began drying her hair while brushing it at the same time. His gaze went to her thigh and he closed his eyes immediately.
He did his best to concentrate on what he was doing and once he done, he turned off the hairdryer.
“Thanks Theo” Jasmine said and made to collect her things when Theodore suddenly grabbed her wrist and pinned her on the nearby wall.
Jasmine stared at him in surprise.
“So if I wasn’t the one, is this how you would walk around in another’s guy’s room… Dressed like this?” Theodore spoke and Jasmine’s eyes wide-ned.
“No! It’s not like that,,, I mean I just had my shower and Granny wasn’t around. Besides it’s you and I trust you so-”
Theodore pecked her li-ps, making her to stop talking. He smiled, looking at her cute face.
“I’m glad you feel more free with me,, and that you’re more happy… I love you” He said.
Jasmine stared at him..
“I.. I.. I love you too” She muttered and looked away shyly.
Theodore smiled more. He turned her face back to him.
“Took you long to say that” He muttered.
“Julia said that,, you’re just using me and that after you’ve had your way with me.. You’ll leave me”
“Don’t tell me you believe her? Jasmine, from the very first day I met you till now.. I’ve never had that kind of intention towards you. At first, I just felt that I need to protect and help you out with Travis then I started liking all the little things you do.. How you would pick your nails when nervous, how you always fix those lenses of yours then I started having this crazy feelings of always wanting to protect you and be your hero, never to let a single ant hurt you” Theodore said and cupped her cheek.
“I love you,, not just for who you are or for how you look.. But I love you for what I am when I’m with you” Theodore said.
Jasmine smiled wide-ned by the second and like flash, she jumped on him, slamming her li-ps on his.
Theodore caught her, kis-sing her back. He walked and gently placed her on the bed before breaking the kis-s.
“Will you be my girlfriend?” He said breathlessly.
“Yes!! Yes!! Yes!!” Jasmine said happily and reconnected back their li-ps.
They suddenly heard the door to the entrance opening and that made them to break the kis-s.
“You’re lucky Granny is back.. If not, you would have regretted coming here dressed like this” Theodore said and she chuckled.
He sat up and she did same..
“C’mon,, leave before she starts questioning us” Theodore said.
Jasmine nodded and stood then walked to the exit. She turned back and quickly rushed to Theodore then fell on him, kis-sing him de-eply.
Theodore chuckled as his back landed on the bed.

THE BRAUNS MANSION, 6PM**
“No dad!! I already told you I’m not getting married to anyone!!” Arianna said.
“Do I look like I care? The boy and his family arrived today and they’re here to meet their daughter in law so get out of this room let’s go!!” Reuben shouted.
“No dad!!”
“Fine,, I’ll just do it the ha-rd way then” Reuben grabbed her arm harshly and began pulling her out of her room.
“Dad!! Dad!! Let me go!!” Arianna shouted but he paid deaf ear.
“What are you doing to my daughter” Beatrice ran to them but he pushed her out of the way.
They both walked in the living room and Arianna immediately froze when she saw the boy.
“Michael look! It’s Arianna,, she’s more pretty than on photos” Noelle exclaimed.
Michael who was pressing his phone looked up and scanned her from head to toe
“Not bad” He smirked.
Arianna stood there, frozen on her spot and she stared at him..
“B.. Bunny?” She stuttered.
Michael furrowed his brows.
“What did you just call me??”
★★★★★
FAST FORWARD TO MONDAY**
Michael’s car drove in the school and he got down the car, in his uniform.
“I can’t believe I’ll start schooling here. I hope the girls in here are s-exy” Michael said, wearing his cross bag properly.
The first three buttons of his shirt was left unbutto-ned and he was wearing a cross bag, looking like a complete bad boy with his hairstyle.
He dipped his hand in his pocket and began walking..
???? Look! It’s Nathaniel!!
???? Wait,, I thought I saw him arrive with his friends.
???? Yeah.. How can he come twice??
Michael frowned as he looked at almost everybody who were staring at him.
“What’s wrong with this school.. Are they freaks?” He muttered.
He mistakenly bumped on someone and everyone gasped. Everyone stared at them with wide eyes
“Sorry,, I didn’t know you-” Nathaniel turned while speaking. He froze at who he saw.
Michael froze too as he stared at Nathaniel in complete shock. It was just like starring at his reflection on the mirror
“Who are you??” Nathaniel and Michael chorused.
