《Damon》Chapter 20- I'm Not Giving Up
Advertisement
I wake up to the sun shining in my eyes.
I open my eyes to see, I'm still sat on the bed.
I must have fallen asleep while waiting for Damon.
I look around to see Damon packing his bags.
"Damon, I'm sorry about yesterday. I shouldn't have shouted at you, because I know you're up-" he grabs his bags and walks towards the door.
"I'll wait downstairs for you. 10 minutes or I'm gone, and you can find your own way back" he walks out of the room.
I get up slowly, and grab my outfit which I left out yesterday.
I walk towards the bathroom, and wash my face,and brush my teeth. I get changed into my maxi dress, and put my hair in a messy bun.
I grab my two suitcases and pull them out of the room, after wearing my flip flops and my sun glasses.
I wait in the elevator, just as Michael walks into the elevator.
"Oh hey Gabi. Do you live here as well?" I smile slightly.
"I did. I'm going home today" he nods as the doors open.
"Well it was nice meeting you. Do you need any help with your bags?" I shake my head walking out of the elevator towards Damon who's talking to the girl from yesterday.
"I really like these" she touches his arms.
I walk towards her.
"Well he's not yours. Hi, I'm his wife. Now bye. Shoo" she looks at me confused, and then at Damon behind me.
She walks away.
"Let go" he says walking out with his suitcase.
"Yeah, sure. The gentleman-ness jumped out of the window. " I mumble under my breath, rolling my suitcases behind me.
He's already sat in the taxi.
The taxi guy, walks towards me, and helps me put my suitcases in the trunk.
"Thanks" I smile and sit in the car.
"We have a lot of talking to do, when we get home" I whisper to him. He ignores me.
It's okay Gabi. Deep breaths. Don't change into a fire breathing dragon.

"Wake up" someone shakes me.
"Damon let me go back to sleep" I mumble trying to lay down, but I fall off the bed.
I groan opening my eyes to see I'm in an airplane.
I stand up quickly to see its empty except Damon is standing there with his arms crossed, not looking at me.
I'm too beautiful for him. His eye sight might become weak.
I smile shaking my head and following him out of the plane.
We walk towards our suitcases, and he picks his up. I pick up both of mine, and follow him out.
I see Jordan, and Austin.
I wave at them.
"Austin! Jordan!" I shout and they look at us.
They smile, jogging towards us.
"Hey Gabi" they smile and I hug them both carefully.
"Hey guys. Did I miss anything? Are you engaged? Are you dating my sister?" I ask them and they both blush slightly.
"No, and no" Jordan answers both of my questions.
"Don't worry about it. Cupid is here for the rescue" they smile and turn to Damon.

"Why are you guys back so early? I'm sure people spend at least a week." Austin asks
"Jordan call my lawyer for divorce papers." Damon says and Austin whips his head to me.
"What? You're leaving him?" I scoff
"Nope. It's actually the other way round, but don't worry. I'm not the one breaking his heart, he's breaking mine" I say and they look at me confused.
"Don't sweat it. Let's go home" I say and Jordan takes my suitcases off me.
"Thank you so much. You're so thoughtful. Not likes others" I look at Damon, from the corner of my eyes.
He rolls his eyes and follows Austin towards the car.
Jordan sits next to me in the car as Austin and Damon sit in the front.
"What happened to you guys?" Jordan whispers to me, and I place my head on his shoulder.
Austin and Damon are talking about work. Again.
"I don't know. He just got fed up of everything" he frowns slightly.
"That can't be it" I sigh.
"I can't really tell you. It's Damon's story, and I can't say it" he nods slowly.
"Helen" he whispers and I nod slowly.
He's Damon's best friend. He should of known.
"Yeah. And he just shut me out, saying he wants a divorce. He said he gives up on us, because I'm annoying and I want a lot of attention. So he wants a divorce. I said he can give up, but I'm not" I whisper and Jordan sighs.
"He's just going to be a cold asshole for a week. He'll get better" Jordan whispers as Austin parks the car outside our house.
Damon gets out and grabs his suitcase and walks inside.
"Bye" I smile at both of them.
I get out of the car as Austin gets my suitcases out.
"Just be easy on him" I nod as he hands me them.
I take them inside just as Damon walks out of the kitchen with a water bottle.
"Damon wait" he stops and I smile slightly
I walk towards him, and stand on the second step, so I can look straight into his eyes.
"Are you really giving up on us? Just because of Helen? She's not going to come into our life anymore Damon. You love me, right?" I whisper
"Gabrielle stop it. Do you want the truth?" I nod slowly
"I don't love you. Yes this was an arranged marriage. I just wanted you to get married to me, so I can fuck you. I already have a girlfriend. Hannah. You always thought that Hannah just had a crush on me? Well no. I just told you that, so everything was more believable. Look Gabrielle, don't cry. Just sign the divorce papers tomorrow, and we can both end this" he says,walking around me.
"So you don't love me?" I whisper
"No" he says softly, and carries on walking.
I sit down on the step, and cover my face, with my hands.
The doorbell rings, and I wipe my eyes quickly, standing up.
I wipe them again and walk towards the door. I open it to see Kristen.

"Gabi! I missed you,even if it was for a day" she hugs me tightly.
"Careful. I have a tattoo" I say pushing her a little back.
She gasps.
"Really? I've always wanted a tattoo. What did you get?" I shake my head letting her inside.
"It doesn't matter" she nods turning to me, as I close the door.
"Have you been crying?" I shake my head
She walks closer to me, grabbing a hold of my chin, turning it towards her.
"Why?" I shrug
"Just the normal couple fight." I smile walking towards the stairs.
"Do you want to talk about it?" I shake my head
"I'm just going to go and lay down,and think about it all tomorrow" she nods
"I'll go then. But if you need a girls night, or ice cream, call me" I nod smiling at her.
"Thank you" she nods and walks out of the house.
I lock the door and walk upstairs. I see Damon taking his clothes back into his room.
Okay, separate rooms again.
I walk into my room, as he enters it again.
"I'm going back to my room" I nod sitting on my bed, as he walks into the closet.
"Damon, I'm not going to sign those papers" I say as he walks back out.
"Why? Ella just sign them." I smile slightly at the name Ella.
"No. I told you I'm not giving up. I don't care how we are, we'll fight through it. Or I'll make us fight through it" he frowns
"Why are making this harder? I won't love you. Hannah will be here every day" I frown slightly.
"You were telling the truth about that?" He nods and walks out of the room.
He was telling the truth.
If I see that bitch, I swear I will roast her on the barbecue.
I'm so sorry for swearing, God.
I lay down in bed and look up at the ceiling.
I need to do something that will pull us back together, because I know that Damon is lying. I know he loves me. He wouldn't go through all of that just to have that with me right?
Maybe salsa classes? No
Cooking classes? But he knows how to cook.
Yoga classes? He won't agree.
Therapy? I sigh.
I'm confused. What can we do that will bring us closer?
Paparazzi! He wouldn't want the world to know about our fight, or divorce.
Something that I includes the paparazzi, or either I'll tell them.
Cooking classes. I'll tell the paparazzi that Damon is going to teach me how to cook, so he'll have to do it.
I jump out of bed, and doing my happy dance.
"Who's awesome? I'm awesome." I point to myself.
I spin around as the door opens and Damon walks inside with a first aid kit.
He stares at me confused, and at my hands raised.
I quickly place them down.
"You have to clean up your tattoo, so it doesn't get infected." He hands me the first aid kit, and I take it off him.
I lift my dress over my body, leaving me in my red bra and panties.
I try to pull the bandage off slowly, but I wince at the pain.
"You have to be careful" he holds my hand, stopping me.
I nod slowly, as he gets down on his knees, pulling it off slowly.
I see his name written on my hip,with swirls around it. But it's red.
I frown at it, as Damon gets an wipe, and runs his fingers over it slowly.
"Why is it red?" I whisper
"It's still healing. Mine did the same" I nod as he wipes it gently.
He has a few tattoos. I've seen the rose. I like that a lot.
"I still love you Damon" I whisper
His hand freezes on my hip, before he wipes it slowly.
"I'll wrap it again for you, and then I'll clean it two days later, again" he says standing up.
He gets the bandage, and wraps it around my hip, slowly, walking around me.
I feel his hand on my neck slowly, but it soon disappears.
"Move your hair. It's too long" I pull it all to one side, as he wraps my tattoo slowly.
He bends down slowly, and cuts the bandage a little.
"Be careful that you don't wash it this week. It could get infected." He says softly, and I nod, as he packs the first aid kit back up.
"I'm going out. Don't wait up" he walks out of the room.
"Wasn't planning too" I smile slightly.
I'll tell Kristen to let the paparazzi know, about the cooking classes.
I call Kristen and she picks up on the second ring.
"Shall I bring the ice cream?" I laugh
"No. I need a favour" I smile

War of Seasons
Dorothea Atlin is the young, apathetic leader of the neutral territory of Sirpo, a chilly land hovering above the continuously warring factions of Sacer and Ghuria, whose devastating magics have ravaged their people and lands time and time again. Following a shocking attack and a cruel deception, Dorothea grows her conscience and takes up arms, using her self-destructive ability to manipulate the flow of time to ensure Sacer’s victory. Her growing understanding of war and the two factions is guided by Iree Nobelis, the determined and enthralling commander of Sacer’s forces, Ariana Kingfisher, a steely swordswoman of mixed Ghurian and Sacerian descent, and Rhys Tamlin, a kind but haunted soldier who goes to challenge Dorothea’s self-imposed celibacy and join her on a mutual journey of healing from the tragic legacies of the Atlin family and wars between the nations. Meanwhile, Dorothea’s only friend and deserter from the Sacerian military, Shark Olyen, returns to their homeland to face the family that disowned them and finds more than they bargained for in meeting Cerid Creed, a noble whose duty to his people clashes with his desires in romance and in life, much like Shark’s did long before. As their developing or preexisting loves and differing convictions on how to achieve peace create rifts between these major players, Dorothea experiences a personal revolution that leads her to fight for what she believes is right, no matter the cost. A slow-burn story that takes time setting up the psychology and motivations of characters for explosive payoff later down the line. Cover by Ben Arisson, who is also a wonderful author on this website!
