"This is so good," Marco said, his mouth full of burgers."I told you, this is the best burger." Lily gloated."You have only been here a few days and you already know this?" Marco asked.Lily shrugged, "I travel a lot. I have been here before. " Marco's face lit up with interest, "Really?"Yeah, when you have a lot of time on your hands. You use it carefully. Besides I had no idea we were coming to see you.""I am as surprised as you. It's funny because Raina and I fought over this." Marco revealed.Lily's eyes went wide with surprise, "Really? Why?""I don't know. She gets jealous these days and I brushed it off at first but this one she took personally." Marco said.His face pinched when he thought about their argument.He felt his heart constrict again at the thought of Raina. He knew there was no going back after this but a part of him felt empty."Do you miss her?" Lily asked.Marco nodded without hesitation. "I do, what we had was special but it's over now.""I am so sorry."

"What are you doing here?""I came here to talk to you.""Whatever it is you want to say, I don't want to hear it," Marco said.He trudged up the stairs, well aware that Lily was following him. He could feel her stares on his back.He didn't turn around to face her. He didn't want to see the look of pity or concern on her face. He didn't want to talk about it. He just wanted to forget about everything that had happened.Marco did not want to listen to Kelvin, his showing up here was a painful reminder about his breakup.Something he wanted to forget entirely, thankfully the plate-throwing helped him a lot.Five minutes more with Kelvin and it might go back to zero."Marco, please." Kelvin pleaded, his voice desperate.Marco stopped short, "What, Kelvin?" "I am sorry, I know I hurt you but I didn't mean to.""If you came here to waste my time then you are wrong. I don't have time for this." Marco snapped.Kelvin looked on with a sad look on his face, "okay okay, just listen to what I

Marco woke up feeling well rested and excited to spend time outside. He got ready and dressed, he couldn't help but feel a bit nervous. He wanted to make a good impression and show Lily that he was dependable and trustworthy when he was not a mess.When he finally made his way downstairs, Lily was already there, sitting at the kitchen table, sipping on a cup of coffee. The sight of her made Marco's heart skip a beat. She looked so beautiful and put together, and he couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated.The minute she saw him, she said, "Well I thought I was going to drag you out of bed," Marco laughed nervously, trying to ease the tension. Lily smiled warmly at him and gestured for him to join her at the table.As he made himself a cup of coffee, Lily asked him if he was ready for the day ahead. Marco nodded eagerly, he couldn't sleep because he was so excited. He wanted to be around people that didn't know him.Lily finished her coffee and they both headed to the sink to dro

Marco was shocked, he looked at Lily but she was avoiding his eyes."Lily?" he asked her.Lily looked down ashamed, "Yes, I have a company." she confessed.Marco smiled, "That's great." he told her. He turned back to her friends, "I had no idea, but sure I would love to invest."They looked uncomfortable talking about it so Marco decided to change the subject. Lily looked at him apologetically."So Chad, what are you into?" Marco asked.Chad blinked, "Oh, I work as the Coo of Shelby and Co." "That's interesting, what company is that?" "Oh, we major in entertainment. We are kind of an agency that represents actors, models, all kinds in the show biz." "Amazing."Marco left it at that. He was hurt that Lily didn't tell him about her company but he figured he should have asked.They haven't spoken much about her since she came and it was partially his fault."Lily, where are you staying? You didn't mention it?" Jessica asked.Lily shrugged, "He was kind enough to open up his house for

Raina got her ice cream and she headed to sit down in one of the booths when she caught sight of Marco enjoying his ice cream.What made her blood boil was the skank opposite him."You have got to be kidding me," she muttered to herself.Raina thought Marco broke up with her for Lily.She approached them, "Can I join you?" she asked calmly.Marco looked nearly surprised to see her but she ignored the female sitting across from him.Raina dropped near Marco who adjusted to make room for her. She rolled her eyes at Lily who was smiling at her."Hello," she said politely.Lily only nodded at her as she ate her ice cream.There was silence until Lily spoke, "How have you been Raina?"Raina gave her a fake smile, "Oh, I have been good. Wonderful.""That's good to know," Lily answered.Marco was still silent, Raina turned to him. "How have you been, Marco?"Marco shrugged, "It's been hard but I would survive." Raina was ecstatic to hear this, maybe he missed her and wants her back."Really

"How are you doing, Marco?"Marco sat across from Anthony, unsure of what to expect from their conversation. "I would be okay," he replied honestly. He didn't want to pretend that everything was fine when it wasn't."Good," Anthony said with a sigh of relief. "It pains me to see you like that. Lily said she took care of you."Marco nodded gratefully. "Yes, she's been amazing. I don't know how to thank her enough.""Where is she now?" Anthony asked."She went to meet up with her friends," Marco replied. "She felt like you wanted to talk to me alone.""Yeah, I did," Anthony said, shifting in his seat as he stared at Marco intensely. There was a sense of urgency in his voice that made Marco nervous. The last time that happened, he was told his father was dead."What's going on?" he asked, his heart beating faster.Anthony took a deep breath before speaking. "You know how much I have been the bearer of bad news?" he asked.Marco nodded, his face changed to horror, "Did someone die?"An

"Marco, you have a very nice place," Chad said as he passed, giving Marco a pat on the back. Marco forced a smile and muttered a polite thank you, but in truth, he was irritated with Chad's comment. It was as if Chad expected his place to be shabby or something.As the rest of the group trooped in, Marco tried to ignore the chattering and laughter around him. Marcelle was the only one who didn't seem to be enjoying himself. He walked in with a scowl on his face, his arms crossed tightly over his chest.Marco rolled his eyes and shut the door, he could feel the headache coming fast.But Lily, who had been watching him, caught his eye and mouthed at him to be nice. Marco sighed and tried to put on a friendly face."So, who wants a drink?" Marco asked, gesturing towards the kitchen. "I've got beer, wine, and some cocktails."Everyone seemed to perk up at the mention of alcohol. Chad and a few others headed towards the kitchen, but Marcelle stayed behind, eyeing Marco warily."Marcelle

"I..." he started, but he didn't know how to finish.Marco's heart was pounding in his chest. He had never thought about Lily in that way before, but now that she had brought it up, he couldn't deny that he was attracted to her.Lily reached up and touched his cheek. "It's okay," she said softly. "I'm not asking you to make a move or anything. I just wanted to know if the thought had ever crossed your mind."Marco swallowed hard. "I...I don't know what to say."Lily smiled a hint of mischief in her eyes. "You don't have to say anything," she said. "Just...think about it."With that, she turned and walked towards the kitchen door. Marco watched her go, his mind racing. "What the heck was that?" he asked himself.Marco heard Lily rummaging in the kitchen but he didn't dare go in there.Not knowing what else to do, he ran upstairs to his room to take a breather. Lily came out of the bathroom."Marco, help me..." She stopped short when she realized there was no one there."Marco!" There

"When I tell you that you are crazy, believe me," Lily mumbled.She rested her head against the headrest and covered her eyes with a sleeping mask.Marco grunted and did the same, it was going to be a long flight.Marco and Lily's flight touched down at the bustling airport, and they both let out a sigh of relief. Stepping off the plane, Marco felt the warm breeze of London enveloping them, and excitement filled his nostrils.Lily, with a slight yawn, turned to Marco and said, "You know, after this long flight, we should go rest a little before we go to the big house."Marco, however, seemed hesitant. "I understand that you need rest, Lily, but I need to take care of it now. If we get it done quickly, we can then relax and have a great time leading up to the prom back home."Lily smiled understandingly, knowing how important it was for him to come here. "Alright, I get it. Let's do what we need to do first, and then we can enjoy ourselves without any worries."They collected their

The voice bellowed startling Marco from sleep, he gazed with sleepy eyes into the eyes of Anthony.Marco looked around him and discovered that Lily was still sleeping with the sheet covered but it would take a fool not to guess what they had done.He sighed, not making a move."I believe I asked a question," Anthony said."You know we live together, were you expecting something else?" Marco asked.He got up gently, thankful he had slept with his boxers.He put on his shorts and headed downstairs, well aware that Anthony was following behind."Marco," the man questioned.Marco went to the fridge and took out a bottle of water."I am talking to you, boy."Marco leveled him with a bored look, "What do you want?"Anthony stepped towards him in a threatening manner."I told you how I felt about sleeping with my daughter.""Was this before or after you shot my dad?" Marco asked. Anthony stood there, his eyes locked onto Marco, his mouth hung wide open in

Marco said nothing.He just stared at Lily wide-eyed."You what?" he asked.Lily shrugged, "I thought we could sit down and talk about us when this is all over but the issue with my father is hanging over my head."Marco took a step closer, "Lily,""No, hear me out."Marco kept mute and just listened, Lily took a deep breath."I love my father, I do but what he did is unforgivable. I am not going to lie that I will be sad if you kill him but I understand.""So you will hate me?"Lily shook her head, "I will be sad but like I said, I understand."Marco nodded.Lily stretched out her hand again, this time Marco took it and they went home. "Stay here, Marco," Lily said, her voice trembling slightly. "I need to grab something from upstairs."Marco nodded, trying to hide his anxiety. He trusted Lily's decision, but this situation was unlike anything he had ever experienced. He had no idea what to do.As she disappeared up the stairs, he was left alone with his thoughts and the haunting s

It was worth it.Seeing the smile on Lily's face made him happy.He rubbed his eyes all weary from sleep, and looked around to wonder what jolted him awake.Marco could have sworn he heard a bang.He stood up and padded to the door thinking Lily was knocking, when he opened the door, there was no one there.He took the stairs to check the front door, switching on the lights at the same time.He turned on the porch lights and frowned when he noticed an envelope lying on the floor."What the hell?" he muttered to himself.He looked around before he picked it up. He slammed the door shut.Lily came out of her room, rubbing her eyes."what's going on?" she asked."Fuck if I know," he muttered to himself.Lily came down the stairs and looked at the envelope."What's in it?""Lily, I just picked it up.

Chris paced the floor, almost wearing a hole in it. The movement made Raina so dizzy."Would you stop doing that?" she snapped.Chris turned to her sharply, "Are you mad? You are the cause of all this.""How? Forgive me for trying to rectify your mistakes." Raina yelled."My mistakes? You are the one who went to confront Marco.""Yes only because I believed your lies."Chris laughed, "Oh don't act so innocent in all of this, you were there through it all. You played a part in it too."Raina gaped at him, "You are such a bastard."Chris laughed again, "I know, isn't that why you stuck with me?
