Hi all,
An author once told me, never stop writing? Even if you do not publish, your time will come when you’re ready. So today I’m going to show you what I’m writing it’s a new story and it’s all part of the Pierce Family. This is Liam Pierce, and you know what he lives here in Halifax Nova Scotia. It’s only the 1st draft and all copyrights are reserved. This story doesn’t even have a title yet. Hope you enjoy it.
Chapter One
Mia Baxter.
Something I’ve never done in my life is walked out of the office without explanation. My boss was in a meeting and when I got the call from Mrs. Mcconnell I knew something bad happen. I listened to her and my hands started shaking, that the one person I loved was no longer. I text my boss; I need a personal day, something bad happened, an accident and I have to go. I’m never sick I’m never late, and they owed me for all the overtime I’ve done. But I didn’t care I just left. There was only one place I wanted to be.
Getting out of my Jeep, along the side of the road between Tantallon and Hubbards, Nova Scotia. A quaint area that many locals like to come to in the summertime. The beach is small but I loved it. I kicked off my sandals and took a few steps onto the wet sand. I felt numb and lost and the coldness of the breeze went right through me. I didn’t care as feeling cold was better than a hurting heart. It was deserted this early in the evening.
The day was coming to end, on this rare summer night, the sky was clear and for once there was no fog coming in off the water. The sun was setting on the horizon across the bay. It’s where I wanted to be. Alone with my thoughts. The cool salty evening air whisked my hair in every direction and I didn’t care, I wiped away the tears rolling down my cheeks, knowing that my life will never be the same as I am alone now. I cried out “Why? Why Lucas did you leave me?”
My knees buckled and I collapsed. I held my hands to my face and cried. Cried for everything we had. Our love, our promises, our future. He said he would never leave me. “Dammit Lucas Mcconnell, you promised me?” Not having the strength to get up. I sat down not carrying if I got wet or not.
Watching the sunset over the bay, as it brought calmness to my broken heart. I pulled my legs up and rested them against my chest, as I leaned in and rested my chin on my knees, and wrapped my arms around my legs. I took a few good deep breaths and closed my eyes hearing the sweetest music of the ocean waves against the shore. I could still hear the seagull fighting for food that someone might have left behind. There were still a few people as I looked ahead. Tears rolled down my cheeks thinking that was us.
A chill ran through me as I whispered; “Lucas, what am I going to do?” I closed my eyes I needed to find the strength in me. I couldn’t explain it but I felt the presence of someone wrapping their arms around me and holding me. “Lucas. Why? Why didn’t you come back? I can’t do this without you.” I whispered. I never thought I could put my fate into someone so fast. Rely on that person so much that I lost a little of myself along the way.
“I’m right here, Mia.” A whispered voice echoed in my ear.
I knew I was losing my mind and hearing voices, and feeling arms that weren’t around me as I sat trying to feel some kind of connection. “You’re not, I feel you. But I know you’re not real, you left, you left me. How can I keep going without you?”
“Mia, sweetheart. I will always be with you, right here on this beach, in your heart. Holding you, sharing our stories, guiding you? I will always be with you. You will always have a part of me with you.”
“No Lucas, you left me, you didn’t come back. It hurts so much.” I felt him hold me. I might have been dreaming, but I know he was there with me.
“Mia, you will forever remember me, you don’t know it yet, but with time you will understand. Find love again sweetheart I will always be part of you.”
I heard his voice getting further and further away. He was leaving and I know that I will never feel him again. “Don’t go!” I cried and wiped away my tears. I look at the ocean ahead. I sensed a present cross my path and turned my head the sun was blinding me and I looked up and saw the one person I never thought I would see. Liam Pierce looking down at me.
CHAPTER TWO
MIA
I didn’t understand why Liam was here; Liam Pierce is one of the richest Billionaires In Halifax, NS. Yes, I knew who he was. I knew about his family in Montreal, Quebec. The Pierce family business was known around the world, on social media anyone that didn’t know about the Pierce family was either oblivious or just clueless about who they are. To say I like him. I didn’t! Liam Pierce was arrogant and obnoxious, and irritating.
He thought he was a god’s gift to women. I don’t know why he didn’t like me. I never did anything to him. Yet, he was cold and avoided me at all costs. From the first moment, I shook his hand, when Lucas introduced me and I said hello.
“What are you doing here, Liam?” It was no secret we didn’t like each other. I might have sounded rude, but when it came to Lucas’s best friend Liam I didn’t care. I needed to protect myself and didn’t give Liam Pierce the time of day. But right now I don’t have the strength to deal with him or even see him. It hurts too damn much.
Liam and Lucas were like brothers. In a way, he might have been the only one that knew where I was. The beach was the only place where I knew I felt Lucas’s presence. It’s strange the feeling that I had here. I could see his cocky smile, his lean body, his brown eyes, and wild blond hair. Now and then we would go to Lawrencetown Beach, where I would watch Lucas ride the next wave. He was a risk-taker, he loves the water. But Cleveland Beach was the one beach where Lucas and I would come and talk, hold each other and just be.
“Mia, I’m here to make sure you are ok? Lucas, would have wanted this?” he said in a soothing voice. As I watched his best friend kneeling on the wet sand in his dress pants and shining shoes, that cost more than my wardrobe. As I shook my head in disbelief.
“Why do you care, you never like me or our relationship. I had with Lucas, so why bother? Just leave. I don’t need you here I just want to be alone.” I told him in a stern voice. Yeah, I was angry and I shouldn’t blame Liam but I didn’t give a rat-ass. . I got up, I needed to get away from him, I didn’t want anyone to see me at my lowest.
I started to walk away from Liam and I didn’t want to ever see him again. His coldest towards me for months didn’t sit well with me. I never could understand how Lucas and Liam were friends, they were from two different worlds. Whenever Liam was in the same room together as Lucas and I. The way he looked at me sometimes, that coldness did sit well. I would get a shiver that would run through my body, that I couldn’t explain. That is why I always kept my distance.
I felt his hand wrap around my wrist and look over my shoulder; “Mia, please wait. I want to make sure you’re ok?”
Ok, is he fucken kidding, me. I lost my fucken boyfriend does he think I’m ok. I was damn angry, I was differently not ok. I was angry with myself, believing that Lucas would come back. Frustration was building inside of me, knowing that Liam would get the blow of what I was feeling. “Let…Go…Of…My…Arm.” I said through clenched teeth, as I pulled my arm away and pushed him backward, with all the force I had. He came forward again and I punched him. “No Dammit I’m not ok! You hear me!”
Liam’s strong arms came around me and I kept punching him in the chest; “I’ve got you, Mia, that’s it, sweetheart let it go.” He told me in a soothing voice, I didn’t understand.
“Go to hell, I’m not your sweetheart. “ I yelled at him as I kept punching him over and over again. Screaming “Why, why did he have to go. He damn promised me, Liam, that he was coming back and we were getting married. But no, he had to go out on the water at night and be restless.” I can’t believe this is happening. His crazy stunt lost our future together. I felt Liam’s arm wrapped strongly around me, the fight in me no longer, and cried. Heard Liam’s soothing voice in my ear.
“I’ve got you, Mia. Nothing will happen to you, I’ve got you?
