Chapter 24

Denzel took and kissed my hand as we snuggled into his sheets. The space was uncomfortable, but I was lying on his chest and we caressed each other with our feet. I never imagined being like this with someone.

"Are you still thinking about your diary?" He asked me as he kissed my forehead.


“Yes.” I admitted “That person will be at my sister's wedding and I'll be like an idiot waiting for... what happens I don't know what…”


"Do you want me to talk to Anne?" he proposed. “If she was printing the sheets all this time since we found Alessia, she must know who the person is who wants to hurt you, love.”

I smiled when I heard it and turned to look at him.

Her green eyes were peering at me with a lovely sparkle. He kissed my forehead again and I continued to hug him.

You're amazing, Rebecca, you've fallen in love with Denzel Derricks.


"Let's get married." My heart sped up when I heard it. He leaned back a bit and gently cupped my chin. “Let's get married, Rebecca.”


“Re crazy?” I swallowed hard and stood up suddenly. “We can't do that, Denzel.”


“Why not?”

"We just can't do that," I repeated. 

Shit. Shit.

What the hell should I tell him?!


"Shouldn't we get married because we're almost twenty-twenty-two?" Or because you still want to spend more time being boyfriends?”


"What you're asking me for is too hasty…" I sighed tiredly. “Why do you want to get married? We haven't even finished college.”

"I want to take care of you." This was too much.


"We can't do this." I got up from the bed and grabbed my things from the floor to start getting dressed. “We can't, Denzel.”

Once I finished putting on my clothes I almost ran out, but a hand stopped me in my tracks.
“Where do you think you're going, Rebecca?” Reed's eyes glared at me. I jerked free, but several of the strands of my hair were loose and made me uncomfortable.


“I'm leaving, in case you're an idiot.” I talked.


"You're not going anywhere." He held up Denzel's journal. “You're not going anywhere if you don't want the same thing to happen to your boyfriend.”

"Where the hell did you get that from?" I clenched my jaw in anger.


“Where do you think, silly? I sleep in his room, in case you're an idiot.” He repeated the same phrase as mine.

Stupid Reed Derricks!


"I know he asked you to marry me." I widened my eyes in surprise. 

Are you serious that you told this idiot?

“That's none of your business, Reed.” He bit his lower lip and laughed.


“When I got here we both knew that I didn't just want my cousin's car, you know that since we met I thought of something else like…”


"You're blackmailing us all." I crossed my arms. “What the hell do you want this time, Reed? I'm tired of your damn games.”


"Ou, Rebecca, watch that little mouth," he teased. "Nice girls like you don't usually talk like that to adults like me."


“Shut up.” I hunched my shoulders. “What do you want, Red?”


"What everyone wants." He looked me up and down. "Tell him you're not going to marry him."

"If that's all, then I'm out of here." I cleared my throat and got out of that house before another Derricks showed up and made my life miserable.

“Consider it, Rebecca. he yelled behind me. “You don't want your boyfriend to go through the same thing as you.”

(…)
 

"Thank you, I'll be waiting for your call." —Isa hung up the phone when I got home. She was dressed casually and had her hair pulled back. “Hi, Rebecca, I was about to call you.”

“I'm here.”


"Hi." I looked up to see Joe sitting at the other end of the table. “We can talk?”

I nodded and led him out of the house.

"Are you going to marry Denzel Derricks?" Damn, I already knew where this was going.


“He told you?”

“Denzel told Anne and she told me. I just want to know if it's true, are you going to marry him?”

“Joe…” It's hard to talk about this.

 I don't know if I want to, but I just know I'll say no.


“It's a relief.” sigh “For a second I thought…”


"Just because I say no doesn't mean I don't want to marry him one day…" He looked at me strangely. “It's Reed, he's got his diary, and if I tell Denzel he's going to publish it just like mine. I don't want that to happen to him.”

“You should talk to Denzel, Rebecca. Your cousin can't be manipulating you just like that…”

“For now I want you to keep the secret. I don't want to tip him off and have his face smashed in before the wedding.”

"I'll only do it for you, but…”


"Rebecca." We both noticed Denzel approaching, carrying a bouquet of flowers with him and looking nervous. “What are you doing with him here?”


"I wanted to talk to you about this" was the only thing I said, he stopped tensing and approached. “I wanted to tell you that…”


"She's been with me for days.” Joe interjected as he placed his arm around my back.

Denzel was dumbfounded as he took notice of us, and then it broke my heart.


"Why don't you ever choose me?” He threw away the flowers he had brought with him. “Why do you always choose him?”

I sighed in pain.


"I choose it because you have never told me how you feel about me, Denzel," I replied.

"That's ridiculous." He came at me in a desperate and angry tone.
I looked away.


"I'm with someone else, Denzel." He backed away a bit. “There is nothing you can do anymore, the adventure we had is over.”


"Was I just your lover? he roared. “You don't understand what you mean to me. Yesterday…”
