Anyway, enjoy!

Stevie's POV

It's been a month since mum and dad divorced, and mother still hasn't gotten over my kiss with Zander. Little does she know that I've been seeing Zander after hours, in the staff house. It's made me realize how much I really do care for him.

Mother seems to have lost her willfulness in life. She used to be so determined to get what she wanted, but now, she just can't find the energy to argue anymore. Although, she still insists upon the arranged marriage with Justin Cole. He came by our house, and had tea with us. My mother was delighted at how "polite" he was. She's sent me on many dates with him, but I always go to the staff house instead.

Nelson, the butler, and also my good friend, finally asked out Grace, and she was more than happy to say yes. Kevin and Kacey accidently kissed when she slipped in the kitchen, and nobody has let them forget it. As for Zander and I, I'm so in love with that boy. I've told Justin my true feelings, and he's fine to play along with the act. Besides, he really wants to ask out Molly, Grace's friend.

My father's moved into an apartment block out of town, and apparently, he's already moved on from my mother, and has a girlfriend. I visit my father once a week, with Zander. Unlike my mother, my father loves the idea of us as a couple and he supports me. That's why I still go up and visit him.

PRESENT DAY

Mother walks to the car, her dress crumpled, and her hair messy. I'm wearing a ground length black and white dress, and my hair is curled, with a black beanie over the top. I'm wearing white cropped boots, and carrying my ukulele case.

Mother's taking me to the Cole's house, so I can get to know his parents. But really, Justin and I have organized to finally tell our parents the truth. I've told Zander to meet me outside the Cole's house at 2:30. After we talk to our parents, Zander and I are going to sing a duet, to make sure my mother understands my feelings for him.

Mother starts the engine, and we start driving. As the winding streets go past, I think of the last encounter Zander and I had.

Flashback

Zander leads me through the garden, and we get to the stable. He takes me into his favourite horse stall, and sits me down on the comfy part of the haystack.

"I have something to show you, Steviekins," he says. He reaches behind a loose piece of wood in the wall, and fiddles around, until he pulls out a golden locket. It has a ruby on the front, and the edges are slightly peeled away.

He returns and sits beside me. I look at him with curiousity.

"What is it?" I ask.

"…It's a lot easier if I just show you."

He carefully opens the locket, and cracks begin to appear on my heart. I start tearing up. I can understand why Zander never let anybody touch that piece of wood now.

Inside the locket, is a photo of a man and a woman. The man has brown, gelled hair, and a slightly wrinkled face. The woman has black, curly hair, and kind eyes. They stand in front of a small tree. In front of them, is a young boy, about 7, with black curly hair.

Zander.

I glance up at him, and his eyes are shining, and beginning to water. This is the first time I've ever seen Zander cry real tears. I lay my head on his shoulder, as a tear rolls down my cheek. I lift my head slightly.

"Your parents."

"Yeah."

"I hope you don't mind me asking, but what happened to them?"

He smiles at me and takes a deep breath.

"My father was really religious, and he was a priest at the local church. He made is own way of teaching the bible, and people didn't like it, so in the end, nobody came to my dad's sermons. We were starving to death. So, I started working for the mayor, not for money, but that he would recommend my dads sermons to the town. Heaps of people started showing up then.

"But when my dad found out that I had bribed the mayor, and practically the whole town, he was furious. He really thought people just liked his teachings. He started going mad after that. In the end he murdered my mother, and then committed suicide. I managed to escape, by hiding in the cupboard. After that, I came to work for your family." He manages to choke out the last few sentences through sobs.

Now we're both crying, me into his shirt, and he into my hair. He stops and pushes my chin up. He cups my face in his hands, and kisses me. It seems to last forever, but it only lasts a few seconds. He breaks away first, and pulls me into a tight hug.

"I love you Stevie."

"I love you too Zander."

He smiles and pushes a strand of hair away from my face.

"One day, we're going to have a life together, I promise."

End of Flashback

I come out of my trance, at the sound of a car skidding in front of us, and the sound of my mother screaming. A crash.

Then everything goes silent.

Zander's POV

I walk through the gardens, and pick out some different flowers, and place them in bouquet, as I walk to the car. I can't wait to see Stevie. After today, we might actually have a chance of getting married someday. Yes, I'm that much in love with her.

Then, I hear the buzz of my phone. I pull it out of my pocket.

"Hello?" I answer.

"Zander Robbins?"

"Yes, who's this?"

"This is Dr. Simons. Do you know Stevana Baskara?"

A huge lump appears in my throat, and my lungs seem to stop working.

"Yes, why?" I ask nervously.

"I'm very sorry to tell you this, but Ms. Baskara was involved in a car crash. She will survive, but she was severely injured." He pauses. "Her mother, however, wasn't so lucky. She was hit with the most impact, and she died at the scene. WE suggest you come to the hospital right away."

I drop the phone, not even bothering to hang up, and run to the car.
