"You look beautiful, what's the occasion?" said Alex who was seating on the sofa watching her fiancé put on some make up

Ysabelle turned to Alex while putting on her earrings "It's Carly's birthday remember?"

"Curly hair, short? Southern accent?" said Alex trying to remember who the person was

"Yep" Ysabelle replied turning back to the mirror again

"Do I have to come?" the other girl asked "please say no, please say no" she pleaded

Her fiancé turned to her again smiling "If you dont want to"

"Yes!" Alex cheered "your friends hate me you know"

"No, they don't. Maybe they just think you're a little intimidating a bit you cuz know with your position and stuff" she walked closer to Alex "But I bet if they get to know you, they'll love you"

Alex held the woman's arm in front her "is this your way of persuading me to come with?"

Ysabelle laughed "just saying" she said placing her arms around Alex's neck

"You know much I hate going to clubs" Alex replied resting her forehead on the other girls' "the loud music, the over priced drinks, kids with raging hormones" they both laughed "and besides I want you to enjoy time with your friends. I know you've been busy and you haven't seen them in ages"

"Ok fine, but next time you're coming. I'm running out of excuses. They really want to meet you"

"Fine" replied Alex kissing the tip of Ysabelle's nose

Ysabelle's phone rang, she smiled and gave Alex a peck on the lips, then grabbed her things "you know it's not too late to come with"

"Go" Alex replied smiling at the girl

"I'll see you tomorrow. Love you babe"

"Love you too!" Alex shouted as the door closed. Letting out a breath smiling 'damn. I love that girl'

Ysabelle arrived at the club and made her way to the VIP section upstairs "Ysa! You're here!" said a tipsy Carly.

"Happy birthday, Carls!" Ysabelle handed her, her gift

"Girl, you didn't have to. But I'll accept it because I know it's expensive" Carly joked making her friend roll her eyes "come! The others are inside already"

"Ysa!" shouted Leo one of her friends "girl! You look stunning, what have you been doing? I need to know your secret"

"I see you haven't changed Leo" Ysa replied then greeted the others on the table

"I just noticed, where's your smoking Goddess of a fiancé? You told us she'll come the next time were meeting?" asked Sebastian, Leo's "friend".

"Sorry guys, but you know, she's a very busy person" Ysabelle half lied.

"You know if I don't see her on the news or the magazines, I'd think she's not real" said Leo

"Guys, Ysabelle said she's busy. She has this big empire to run remember?" said Carly

"I heard they're building a new airport" said Gia

"Does she even have time for you my dear?" asked Sebastian "if she doesn't treat you right, girl, you know where to find me" Sebastian, if you don't know him well, you'll think his straight with his athletically built body, but when he talks, that's another story.

"Guys, Alex is not like that. She's always at work but I know it's for our future" Ysabelle replied

"See, she's not that bad anyways" said Gia "But girl remember what she did before? What if she's not really at work but actually 'working' someone?"

Ysabelle sighed "She's changed. I know she has" she took a sip from her drink "I trust her and if she is then she'll be meeting the devil"

"That's our girl!" shouted Carly raising our drink "Let's drink!"

The next morning Jaime came down the stairs and saw her sister in the kitchen looking through her phone "what's up?" she asked

"Jaime!" Alex replied in surprise "uhm... nothing. It's just Sabby haven't texted me since last night. I tried calling her but she's not picking up. I'm worried"

"So, who's possessive now?" Jaime teased while pouring herself some cereal "Where did she go last night?"

"At her friends' party"

"Then, she's probably with them, probably had a sleepover or something"

"But she'd text at least"

"Bro" said Jaime placing a comforting hand on her older sisters shoulder "she's an adult she can take care of herself and she probably had fun and forgot to text"

"But today she hasn't yet"

"Dude, its what like 7 am. She's probably still sleeping or hangover to check her phone. Chill ok? Here have some cereal"

Alex took a spoonful of cereal and cleared her head "You're probably right. I'm overreacting"

Suddenly Alex's phone rang. She didn't even bother looking who called and answered it "Sabby?" she said

"Uhm... no ma'am" said Crista, Alex's secretary "your dad wants to see you ASAP"

Alex's eyebrows furrowed "did he tell you why?"

"No ma'am, he just told me he wants you in his office now"

"Ok" she replied and hanged up

"Who was that?" Jaime asked

"Dad wants to talk to me. I have to go" replied Alex

"Hey! You took my cereal!" the younger sister shouted "Man!"

Alex fixed herself first before knocking "Come in" her father replied

"You wanted to see me dad?" Alex asked nervously

"Yes, take a seat" the man ordered

"Is there something wrong?"

"Alex, there's something you need to know"
