I started this fic in July as my way of dealing with the whole teen scene that had been going on. I was really upset by it and this fic was my outlet. I posted the prologue on July 4th to be exact. LOL. Anyway, I've just decided to post it here as well so I hope you guys enjoy it! I'm posting the first four chapters now. And chapter five will be posted in the next few days since I'll be updating that at my site and the other sites I post at as well. I hope you guys enjoy this fic as much I do!
Prologue
"Do you really think it'll work?" He glanced skeptically at his companion.
"Of course it'll work." She smiled at him. "It has to."
"Yeah…" He nodded and his eyes twinkled as he grinned.
"But…" She frowned. "What if it doesn't?"
"You just said it would!"
"I know what I said!" She yelled back at him. "But, what if it doesn't?"
"If it doesn't…" He shrugged. "Then we regroup and come up with a new plan."
"Yeah." She nodded at him, smiling once again. "Georgie doesn't deserve Dillon…I do. And I'm not going to let her keep him. He's mine."
"I don't even think he wants her. If he did," He grinned mischievously. "He wouldn't have kissed you while you guys were on the Markham Islands looking for you dad."
"Exactly." Lulu smiled. "That has to count for something, right?"
"Right." Diego agreed.
"So when do you want to get all of this in motion?"
"I think you should go talk to Dillon and make plans for this weekend. I'll talk to Georgie."
"So to get Dillon and Georgie to break up…all we have to do is make them jealous by thinking the other is on a date?"
"Right." He nodded at her. "Shake."
The duo shook hands and smiled.
"Operation break up Dillon and Georgie is a go." Lulu winked at her newfound friend. "I'll call you after I talk to Dillon, okay?"
"Okay. I'm going to go find Georgie."
"And I'll find Dillon."
"Later." He waved to her.
"Later."
The two walked off in opposite directions, neither realizing that their entire conversation had been monitored.
Dillon Quatermaine stared in shock at the very spot that Diego and Lulu had just been standing. His friend Lulu was plotting to break him and Georgie up? He shook his head. No, she wouldn't do that to him.
But she just did, the voice in his head reminded him.
But why? Why would Lulu do that to him? Diego he wasn't surprised about. He had told Georgie a long time ago what a traitor that guy was. But Lulu? He shook his head again. Something just didn't add up.
But there it was. He had heard it with his own ears. It wasn't second generation information, he'd heard it for himself.
"So to get Dillon and Georgie to break up…all we have to do is make them jealous by thinking the other is on a date?"
Did they really think that that was all they had to do to break him and Georgie up? He and Georgie had been in love longer than they'd known the two of them and now they thought they knew them? They didn't know anything about them. Neither of them knew all of the obstacles he and Georgie had gone through. They didn't even know what they had to go through just to be together.
He and Georgie were married and he wasn't giving her up that easily. And he knew Georgie thought the same thing about him or they would have been broken up already. Hell, she probably never would have married him unless she was sure.
He glanced around the park, noting that the two schemers were now long gone. He did not need this today. He groaned in frustration as he placed his hands over his eyes before running them down his cheeks and letting his arms dropped to his sides. This was not how he had planned to spend his day at all. All he wanted to do was go for a nice, leisurely walk in the park before meeting up with his wife for lunch. But could life be that simple? Of course not.
Instead of that relaxing walk, he had come upon his step-sister Lulu and the guy that continuously made passes at his wife, conspiring together. And now he was more frustrated than he was before he had even started his walk. His whole reasoning behind taking a walk in the park was to get himself to calm down and take a break from all the changes that had be going on his life lately. And now it seemed that even a simple walk wasn't in his favor.
He sighed and pulled out his cell phone, pressing number one on his speed dial.
"Hello?"
"Georgie?" He smiled into the phone. "It's me."
"Dillon." She squealed happily. "Where are you? I thought you wanted to have lunch together."
"I still do, if you aren't busy."
"I'm never too busy for you, you know that."
"Good."
"Where do you want to have lunch?"
"I was thinking some place new. I think we need a change of scenery and there's something I need to talk to you about. I don't want to take a chance on anyone overhearing us."
"Okay…" She paused. "How about we go to that nice diner you said you wanted to go to? The one you said was about a half hour away. They had all those big announcements that it was opening and-"
"That sounds good." He agreed, cutting her off. "I'm just going to stop by the Quatermaine's and ask Ned if I can borrow his car and then I'll pick you up. Are you at Kelly's?"
"Yeah, I'm up in our room. I'll be ready to go when you get here."
"Okay, I'll see you soon. I love you."
"I love you too."
He flipped his phone shut and made his way over to the Quatermaine mansion in search of Ned.
"Hey Georgie." He closed the door behind him and turned around expecting to see his wife sitting on the bed smiling up at him. She was neither sitting nor smiling. She was laying down with her eyes closed and by process of elimination he assumed she was sleeping since Georgie wasn't one to take power naps or 'rest her eyes' for a few moments.
He moved around the bed, gently sitting down on the other side as he moved closer to her, hovering over her. "Georgie?" He whispered as he placed a hand on her cheek, brushing away the strands of hair that covered her beautiful face.
"Dillon?" She groaned, moving her body towards him as he dropped his hand. She gradually opened her eyes and let out a yawn as she peered up at him inquisitively. "Hey."
"Hey beautiful." He smiled at her. "Are you tired?"
"Mmm." She nodded her head.
Dillon kept his gaze on her, watching her sleepy eyes fight to stay open. "It's okay, we can go out to lunch another day. Get some sleep, okay?" He moved off the bed and walked over to the door to lock it. Since they were going to be here a while, there was no sense in leaving it unlocked.
"I don't know why…"
"Why what?" He turned the knob on the door, making sure it was really locked before he turned around to walk back over to her bedside. "Georgie?" He continued to walk over to her, hovering over her a second time as he stifled a laugh.
She had fallen asleep again before she even finished her sentence.
