“Thank you Daddy, I promise..Caspian will come to his senses soon.” She said excitedly as I watched my dad get up and look between us.
“We will stay until after the weekend. But I don’t want this to get out of hand..Freddy, watch your sister. Keep her safe.” He ordered like always.
Winfield men get treated much differently than the women. Even though Heaven and I are the same age, she has always been treated like the youngest. My dad’s little princess..while she was getting ponies and shopping trips, I was sent to the office. Learning how to run the business was my main purpose in life..and once Heaven is married off..I will start the process to take over.
After my dad said goodnight and went to his room in the rental home we were staying in, Heaven grabbed his drink and chugged the rest of it.
“So, what’s your plan then?” I asked, making her lift an eyebrow before giving me that look I knew was trouble.
“What do you think would be enough to break them up?” She asked me curiously, making me ponder the question.
“I mean..maybe if he cheated..but there is no fucking way he would do that.” I laughed, knowing there wasn’t much that could be done..but no way would I tell Heaven that..should probably chuck that glass at my head.
“What if he didn’t realize he was? If we were able to drug him..oooh..what if we drugged them both?” She got excited before clapping her hands together excitedly.
“Heaven..seriously?” I said, realizing my sister was even crazier than I thought. Or maybe more desperate than I thought.
“Or what if you slept with her, and we got pictures..” She continued, making me narrow my eyes at her.
“Oh, so now I have to sleep with her?” I scoffed.
“Don’t lie..you know you want to.”
I didn’t answer that..even though I wouldn’t mind teaching that slut a thing or two. Imagining her begging on her knees as I fucked her pretty little mouth..if Capsian saw his sweet little Johnnie being handled like the whore she is, that could be fun..but I wasn’t going to force her..I would want her to come to me willingly.
“So it’s settled..we start getting to know their friends..introducing ourself in their circle..then I tell them about Caspian and I..tell them how Johnnie was jealous..” She said more to herself as she began to hatch her plans.
That was when it all started, then she decided to go out and start going through with it.
Now we are in the car, heading back to the house as I wished I could’ve punched that prick in his face.
“Freddy..I know how we can do this..” She suddenly blurted as I came to a slow at a red light.
“What? Even after that you aren’t jaded whatsoever?” I asked, not too surprised that this didn’t thwart her plans.
“No, but I know he won’t leave her willingly..but if I got pregnant..”
And there it is..she has finally hit rock bottom.
“What if you don’t? Fucking one time isn’t a sure thing Heaven..” I scoffed before shaking my head.
“Even if I’m not, Johnnie won’t stay with him if she so much as thought I was.” She said with a wicked smile as I shook my head in disbelief and began driving off again.
“It didn’t work for Heather..why will it work for you?” I muttered, making Heaven snap her head to me as anger flashed through her eyes.
“Do not compare me to that disgusting woman..the difference is..Johnnie saw how it ended..she wouldn’t want that for her own kids now would she?”
I guess she might be right..but this is risky..if Heaven did get pregnant with Caspian’s child though..then she would at least have an heir to the king throne.
“Fine..but I want no fucking involvement in this part of it..you better get your plan straight, because if this fails Heaven, you will be in deep shit.”
(Ben)
I let out a deep breath, my eyes closing briefly as I tried to keep it all together.
I feel like I have fucked up..I have been putting my own shit ahead of Robin and now..I don’t even know where we stand.
After Florida, I just started pulling away..I felt like I didn’t even know who I was anymore. I began to think I wasn’t ready to get married..but with every day that passed, I missed Robin more and more..and even with my dad literally coming back from the dead I still felt something missing.
I know it’s her.
But what if she doesn’t want me anymore? What if I fucked this up?
I gathered all of my courage and got out of the car. We decided to meet at a Cafe just down the road. I guess her mom had a few friends over or something and my dad was back at the house so I didn’t want to bombard her with that.
Of course it was raining today too..I hope that isn’t a bad omen.
I stuck my hands into my pockets before sprinting across the parking lot and heading to the front doors. A million insecurities rushed through me as I thought about all the horrible ways this could go..but the moment I laid eyes on Robin..they all disappeared.
She was dressed in a pink hoodie and matching sweats. Her long black hair was swept back into a messy bun and she looked tired..but all I saw was my beautiful fiancee. The woman who flipped my world upside down since the moment I met her.
Then my eyes locked onto her, and what I saw..it took my breath away.
Tears..she was about to cry.
“Baby..” I said softly and rushed over to her. My arms circling around my girl as she broke down.
I didn’t give a shit that we were in public and probably had an audience. All I wanted was for Robin to know that I wasn’t giving up on us..that I wanted to fix this.
“It’s okay..everything will be okay.” I whispered before sliding my hands up to her face and tilting her head back.
I peered down at her adorable face as she nodded eagerly.
Then I bent down, my lips brushing against hers gently..I couldn’t help it..she looked so beautiful, even with tears streaming down her face.
“Come on, let’s go sit down. Do you want your usual?” I asked, my hand gripping hers as I led her towards a table.
She shook her head no before sitting across from me as I continued to hold her hand.
“How are you doing?” I asked, watching the corner of her mouth pull into a sad smile.
“Okay I guess..well..not really.” She confessed, making me scoot closer as I held her small hand tighter.
