"Come here," Lucas said as he pulled Jen into his arms. He could tell that she was not in the mood to do anything with him so he had just planned to wait for her to talk to him about what had happened since it looked like it bothered her. Jen, however, had started nodding off in the living room so he carried her to the bedroom. What had made him even more confused was how she could not fall asleep once she was in bed and she kept tossing and turning, which also made him lose his sleep. "What's wrong?"…-

Since Lucas was left home alone, he used that time to work out before taking a relaxing bath. He was determined to ignore his laptop and just take a break, but after he had his own dinner, he ended up succumbing to his habits. He only came to realise he was doing what he wasn't meant to do after he finished answering all his emails. He quickly closed his laptop and sighed in frustration as he looked at the view out of the window that was in front of him. He went to the kitchen and opened the fridge that…

As the two sisters ate, Jen told Alex everything that had been going on in her life since she left home. Why she decided to go to university, how she met Lucas, how they ended up dating and how she ended up living with him. Alex was shocked to hear that she had had a stalker that had followed her all the way to City X. Even though she wanted to express her surprise many times she held back because she was still curious about what happened next. An hour later, two of them finished their dinner and were…

"What time will you return?" Lucas asked Jen who was getting ready to leave for her dinner with her sister. "I'm not sure, but I won't be late," Jen said as she shrugged on her jacket. Lucas silently watched her as she checked her reflection in the mirror. Jen turned around to look at him since he had grown so quiet so suddenly. "I feel bad that I'm leaving you alone on our first night here," Jen said as she went to stand in front of him. "You look beautiful," Lucas said as tucked her hair behind her…

Jen was glad that Alex was too busy at the restaurant to come to pick her up from the airport. When she and Lucas were finally informed that they would land soon, was when she got some reprieve. By the time she left the room, her face was flushed and her lips were slightly swollen. Fortunately, winter fashion seemed to suit her since the other parts of her body where he left incriminating evidence were covered up by what she was wearing. The three of them were received by the staff of the branch office…

A little over an hour later Jen opened her eyes only to realise that she had also fallen asleep and was being held by Lucas. The television was still on and she could feel Lucas' shallow breaths as she was resting her head on his chest. She stretched her body and yawned only to feel the arms that were surrounding her tighten. Before she could respond she felt Lucas kiss the side of her head before pulling her even closer to him. "Were you awake?" Jen asked as she too draped an arm over his torso. "Mmmh,…

David dropped the three off at the airport, to be specific. They were dropped off in front of one of the private jets that the Lewis family-owned. Jen was surprised since she didn't think they would need a private jet for the trip. She did not know that Noah had let Lucas use it because that would be the first and last trip they would take together in a while. They were going to stay at City K for the duration of Christmas and they would spend new years back at City X. Jen said goodbye to David and with…

Jen quickly cleaned up and went to her room to get dressed. When she got out of the bathroom, she briefly glared at Lucas before leaving his bedroom. An action that served to amuse him for a while. Once Jen had left, Lucas also went to take a quick shower before he too got redressed and carried their luggage downstairs. As he was waiting, at exactly 1 pm he received a call from David. "Give me another ten minutes," Lucas said as soon as he picked up the call. "You knew I was going to pick you up at this…

"Is that all you will pack?" Jen asked as she looked at Lucas' suitcase. "Mmh," Lucas answered as he put another jacket in his luggage. "I thought you would carry more," Jen said as she arranged her clothes in her suitcase. "It's not like we are going to a remote island. If I need anything, I'll just buy it," Lucas said as he closed his luggage and set it aside. "Mmh," Jen vaguely replied. "I asked David to take us to the airport tomorrow, he will pick Michael up first before he comes for us," Lucas…

"What are you thinking about?" Brian asked Rachel who was lost in her thoughts. Rachel snapped out of her daze and focused her gaze on him. "It's nothing," Rachel said as she continued to eat her dinner. Brian put down his fork and leaned back in his chair and looked at her. He had tried not to be too intrusive so he wouldn't scare her away, but it didn't look like what she was thinking about was related to anything traumatic that happened in her past. Rachel looked up from her plate and ended up making…
