Chapter 3: Jeopardizing the Good: Part 2

Point of View: Ian Somerhalder

I have no clue what to do or what to think I feel hollow. With shaky hands and frazzled thoughts I make it back to the house. I notice Cody's Escalade in the driveway and another car I'm not familiar with. I walk into the house and hear Nina's voice from upstairs.

"Guys we need to hurry up Ian will back any second now and he won't be too happy about this."

I go upstairs and to Tiara's room. "What the fuck is going on?" Cody, Nina, Cheynne, and Caitlyn freeze then slowly turn around. "Uh hello? Someone tell me something!"

"…Tiara is moving out right now," Cody says.

"Where is she then?"

"She's in S-"

"She isn't here she is signing papers at the new house," Caitlyn chimes in.

"So Tiara wasn't going to tell me anything she was just going to leave? Again? What is this the fourth fucking time third? One argument and she's out the door!" After a moment of being stared at I realize what I said, I'm starting to remember more but still not enough.

Caitlyn's phone rings, "Um hello? Yeah we were about to leave but a surprise visitor came. Yup Ian. Tell her we will be there in a little bit. Okay bye."

"Chace?" I ask.

"Mhm," Caitlyn replies.

"And he is with Tiara?"

"…yes."

"Fucking prick."

"Okay I know you don't remember and everything but who the hell do you think you are to call my boyfriend names? You know I really liked you I truly did I can't help it but right now I don't mind beating your ass for hurting my best friend! Tiara called Chace for a ride after you shut down once again on her. For a man who claims to love her you have a weird way of showing it! "

"Caitlyn stop it's not his fault," Cheynne murmurs.

"Like hell it isn't! You're the one who walked out on her, you're the one who got in the car and drove off that day, you're the one who hid pictures from her and much more, and how could we forget? You're the one who didn't know the use of a condom and got her pregnant! She is the one who picked up where you left off in your company making sure that it didn't fall apart, she is the one who had to talk to the press about what happened, and she is the one who cried all day everyday so much it hurt! She even talked about taking her own life felt guilty that she lost the baby and you have the audacity to walk in here like Tiara owes you some type of explanation after all the bullshit she has gone through because of you? Oh hell no! Maybe it is the medication making you loopy but you have no right acting the way you are now towards her or any of us so how about you shut the fuck up, move out the way, and go gain your memory back so you can get on with your life!"

She takes one of the suitcases and walks towards me and waits for me to move. "Oh that was just the beginning I can go all day or you can get out of my way."

I clench my jaw and take a step to the side. "Cheynne can I speak to you?"

She looks at Cody then walks out the room with me. "What do you need?"

"Take me with you I need to know she is okay."

"Do you even care? She finally gave you what you wanted, the truth, and you just blow her off. When she needed you the most you acted as if you couldn't stand the sight of her! Why would she want to stay here after today?"

"I know but I still barely understand myself she just blurted it out."

"How do you beat around the bush about a damn miscarriage? Please enlighten me."

I put my hands on my hips starting to pace around, "Look I know what I did was wrong but how am I supposed to act?"

"You're supposed to hold her tight, wipe away her tears, and tell her you love her no matter what! Tiara always thought that when she told you, you would hate her and by the way you acted you proved her right!"

"I don't hate her! I love Tiara that's the only thing I know and if that is the only thing that I have to live with I will be content as long as that woman is mine! As long as I can sleep with her, get mesmerized by her beauty, listen to the little squeak of a snore she has when she is really tired, get to look into those big pools of chocolate that can see any hidden truth, and get to hold her close…." The more I talk the more my voice shakes as I try to hold back the tears.

Cheynne moves closer and puts her hands on my shoulders, "I think you need to first pick Tiara or Nina, get all of your memory back which I think you are close to doing, and then go back to Tiara and talk about everything. Don't give her a reason to turn you down again sort yourself out then be with her if that is what you want. You might not remember but Tiara had an unstable childhood she wants some stability in her relationships. This whole situation is pushing her to her limits and I'm truly proud of her for not running away. I know you want to make her happy and I'll help you if and only if you are sure that you can devote yourself completely to her and only her. You can't lie to her anymore. You have to love her like you haven't loved anyone else before and make sure she knows it. And for god's sake Ian don't abandon Tiara in any type of way ever again because she wouldn't be able to handle it."

"I'll never hurt her again."

Cheynne takes a deep breath then pulls out her phone, "I'll text you the address gosh Tiara is going to kill me."

"C'mon Cheynne! We have to get going!" Caitlyn yells from downstairs.

"Good luck," Cheynne says before walking out the door.

"Peace out you motherfucking prick!" Caitlyn yells before slamming the door behind her.

I slide down the wall staring at the door not sure of what to do or say.

"You deserved that," Nina says sitting down on the hardwood floor beside me.

"I know."

"You need to be with Tiara."

"I know that too and I'm sorry."

"No need to be. We haven't been together since December the only reason I was here was because Tiara wanted me to be. She wanted me to be your girlfriend so that you would be happy. She truly is an amazing woman I wouldn't be able to hand you over to another woman like she did."

"I need her back I'm just now regaining major memories but I know that I need her I belong with her."

"I know that's why I'm staying until we get your memory completely back I'll help you."

"Can you just tell me so that I can rush over to Tiara and beg on my knees for her to take me back after everything I've put her through?"

Nina chuckles, "It wouldn't be the same Ian."

"I don't think I can stay away from her though."

"You'll have to because now the tables have turned you are fighting for Tiara. Let's go we have to go see this house." Nina gets up and walks down the stairs.

I soon get off my ass and follow her, "But you just said I had to stay away from her."

"I know but have you forgotten your stalking tendencies?"

I smile and jump into her car. The ride is pretty silent Nina occasionally trying to hint around to events that happened and surprisingly it helps. Along the way I remember driving through the rain thinking that I need to get to Tiara if it's the last thing I do. She was in New Orleans and she still managed to look sexy as hell after being stressed out. I also remember relieving her stress very well twice… I can't help but smile at the very vivid memory.

"What are you smiling about over there?"

"Oh uh just… nothing."

"Sexual memory?"

"Yup."

Nina laughs, "You're hopeless. We should be at her house in a little bit."

"Do you think she will be able to take me back?"

"Of course Tiara loves you as long as she does you have hope."

Five minutes later we pull up to a giant tan house on the shore of Lake Pontchartrain. It's possibly two stories the grass is the perfect shade of green and the sun dances on the water. It was a dream house a little piece of paradise I could see why Chace took Tiara here she needed a vacation. I go to open the car door but Nina pulls me back in.

"You can't go in there guns blazing. You aren't going to see her until you remember every little thing about her."

"So you drove me here to just torture me?"

"No you said you wanted to know she was alright so we are going to find out." She calls my phone, "Answer it."

I do as she tells me then she dials Tiara putting us on three-way.

"Hey Nina what's up?"

"Oh I'm just outside looking at your giant mansion."

Tiara laughs, "Thanks I'll come outside to see you."

"Okay."

Tiara hangs up but Nina stays on, "I'm going to take my phone with me so that you can hear what is going on." She gets out the car and walks up the driveway.

Tiara walks out looking like an angel, "Hey I'm glad you came." She hugs Nina then pulls away, "Ian in the car?"

"Nah he is at home."

"Is he okay?"

Gosh she still cares after everything that happened.

"Eh I guess I don't know."

"He hates me doesn't he? I… I don't know what to do I love him so much. All I want is for him to be mine again for everything to go back to normal." Tiara chokes out between sobs.

Oh baby please don't cry don't cry over a dumb asshole like me.

"Ian doesn't hate you he hates the situation."

"Everyone keeps telling me that but how can I believe it. Just the look on his face when I told him that I lost his baby he wouldn't even look at me. After all the things he has given to me and done for me I couldn't even give him what he wanted the most."

You're what I want the most! Jesus Christ I've hurt her so much.

"He loves you and once he gets himself straightened out you will be the first one he runs to. Just for a night stop overthinking it Ian loves you and you love him love prevails. Don't give up on him."

Tiara wipes away her tears, "I won't." Nina hugs Tiara, "Do you want to come in?"

"I wish but I should get back to Ian I'm helping him get his memory back its coming back fast."

"Good I won't have to be without him too long. Call me if anything happens."

Nina nods then walks back to the car as Tiara walks back inside.

"Did you hear everything? Tiara still loves you."

"Yeah and for her I will fight."

Later on that night I try to sleep instead of overthinking things but I can't help it. I keep replaying everything over and over again hoping that it will trigger some kind of breakthrough. I head downstairs to the kitchen and crack open a new bottle of Pinot Grigio as what Nina said plays through my mind 'You aren't going to see her until you remember every little thing about her'. Little thing… that is what my mind keeps getting stuck on little thing… little thing… Little Things.

"This is the first time I've ever been up here." I said kissing her left hand.

"I'm glad that we can finally share a first together."

All you heard was the light breeze in the air until another favorite of Tiara's came on. "Your hand fits in my like it's made just for me but bare this is mind it was meant to be. And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks and it all makes sense to me. I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile. You've never loved your stomach or your thighs, the dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine but I'll love them endlessly…."

"How much do you love me?" I asked.

"A lot more than I love myself," She replied still looking out onto Seattle.

I squeezed her hand standing next her and looking at the view, "I love you so much just the thought of losing you scares the shit out of me. When you left for just those couple of hours, I knew I had to change the way I acted and if not towards everyone then just you. You're the highlight of my world. I look forward to waking up next to you, going to sleep next to you, and everything in between. I know we still have our bridges to cross together but what couple doesn't? I can't wait to cross them because I know it will make us stronger. You are an amazing woman Tiara beauty, brains, and so much more. You have insecurities and personal problems but I'm here to help you through it…."

"I know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape. You never want to know how much you weigh. You still have to squeeze into your jeans but you're perfect to me."

"…Without you I see nothing for me in my future. I'd rather die than watch you walk away from me forever. I've made mistakes already and I know I will make more maybe what I'm about to do now is a giant mistake too. I want to make you understand that you make me a man a very good man but if you're not by my side, everything is pointless. I know you said you're not ready right now but we can wait."

"And I've just let these little things slip out of my mouth. Cause it's you, oh, it's you, it's you they add up to and I'm in love with you and all these little things."

I removed my hand away from hers. My heart was beating out of my chest but it was now or never I got down on one knee, "Tiara Alexandria Green… will you marry me?"

Her eyes almost popped out of socket at the sight of me on one knee holding a giant diamond ring. The silence was tearing me apart inside. She took deep breaths, "Uh… yes." She covered her mouth with her hand after the answer just rolled out of her mouth.

"Yes?"

"Yes."

"Really?"

Tiara chuckles, "Yes Ian yes! How many times do I have to say yes to you?"

My jaw dropped I was ready to hear a hell no. I placed the ring on her left ring finger with trembling hands. When I was back on my feet, I picked Tiara up kissing her while twirling her around in the air. I couldn't help but have a giant smile on my face she made me the happiest man alive.

"I love you so much I can't believe you said yes!" I blurted out before kissing Tiara again. We walked hand in hand back inside to an applauding room.

"What the hell happened?" Nina asks.

I look down noticing that I'm standing in a pool of wine, "Tiara's my fiancée…."

Hehehe it's getting good. Review, favorite, follow, questions, and suggestions. Please and thank you!:)
