Heyy my Lil Tacos! Some authors always call their readers something. And I wanna call you guys something. What do you think I should call you guys? Comment down below and I'll pick the best one. So I'll just go straight to the story.

Ashley's P.o.V.

Oh man. School was the absolute worse thing ever! I was in the middle of Sano and Raito all day, and let me just tell you.... it ain't fun. They just couldn't stop staring daggers at each other!!

I mean, I get Sano doing it, but why Raito? I thought he was happy with the breakup. After all, he made it perfectly clear that he could get more girls. While we were still dating he had gotten a girls number! Who does something like that?? Apparently Raito. And luckly not my Sano.

Whatever. I'm just glad that it's all over now. At least for today. Crap. How am I going to deal with the rest of the school year?? Hmm. I'll manage, somehow. Especially with Sano at my side. He is just such a great guy.

I get home and slump on my couch. I close my eyes for a few seconds before I snap them back open and remember about Lily-anne. I quickly reach in my bag and fish out my phone.

When I feel the rectangle object, I yank it out and immediately go to my contacts. I go straight to my favorites and see a picture of a dark red haired girl with electric blue eyes and pale skin smiling at me as best as she can. Lily-anne. My favorite of three cousins and one of my best childhood friends.

I push the 'call' button and wait impatiently for the ring. Please let this phone call go through! Please! It's very important that she gets this call!! And finally I hear a ringing sound. Yes!

"Ash?" Called out a very familiar voice.

"Lil? Lily-anne is that you??" I ask, my voice full of hope.

"No. This is Johnny Depp" The voice deepened. I chuckle into my phone. Yeah, it's her alright. Sarcastic, excitable, and at sometimes, a tiny bit rude.

"Omg! Lily! I wasn't sure if this call was going to go through! Thank goodness it did! I have some very big news.but first, tell me how you've been in California!!"

"Aww. How did you know it was me? I thought I made a very convincing Johnny Depp. Haha."

"What? You think I wouldn't be able to recognize my own BAFCF' s voice??" Btw, BAFCF stands for Best And Favorite Cousin Friend.

"Haha. You're right. So, to answer your screaming question. California is amazing! I saw so many things! I went to San Francisco and I went to Yosemite and saw these two really big rocks that are like super special called The Half Dome. Okay maybe they weren't rocks, but more like this HUGE canyon. I'll show you pictures of it when I get home. Oh and I also went to Hollywood. And The famous Las Vegas!!"

By that time, my mouth was open in shock. She had gone to so many cool places! It made me wish I could have been able to go with her. But if I did that, then there would be no wedding for me to plan. Oh, right, I have to ask her!!

"Wow Lil. That all sounds so amazing! You're very lucky. So now I have some very big news for you."

"Oh! This is gonna be good. I'm getting goosebumps already! Shoot! I'm ready! " she was squealing and I could just see her jumping up and down waiting for my news. Thats just apart of her excitable personality.

"Well. You know, those stories my mom would say about my dad. And how I've been hurt this entire time. Wondering about my dad? And what actually happened...." I say slowly.

"Yeaahh?" She proceeded with caution.

I spoke quickly when explaining. "Well I kinda found him. Making her stories true. Every last one of them." Silence.... So I took this too continue. Still saying my words quickly. "And I told him where we lived. And he reunited with mom. So they were back together. And I was super happy. Then it got even better when Raito confessed to me. But then it turns out one of my dad's friend's, btw I call them all uncle, has a son Sano. And Sano really likes me. He ended up giving me my first kiss. Um, Raito got like super mad and jealous so we kinda plotted against him, cause I really didn't like him at the time. Then it turned out Raito was a big jerk because he got this chicks number while we were dating, and that I really liked Sano instead. Like really really liked him, loved him infact." I took a deeeeep breath and continued. "So Sano and I are now together and we both love each other, yay. And then something even better then that came along. My mom and dad are getting married. And I'm the wedding planner. But they kinda need one more bridesmaid, and since I'm the wedding planner I was talking to myself and I was like, 'you know. I have the perfect person in mind who would absolutely love to do it' which is you. So yeah. That's all thats that's been going on since you left. Nothing really that special."

......

......

Silence......

......

......

"WHAT?! HOW IN THE BLOODY MARY IS THAT NOTHING SPECIAL??? HOW HAVE YOU NOT TOLD ME THIS SOONER?? A BOYFRIEND?? RAITO?? THEN SOME GUY I DON'T KNOW NAMED SANO?? YOU FOUND YOUR DAD?? THEY'RE GETTING MARRIED?????? HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN GONE FOR???"

I moved the phone away from my ear and listened to her yelling. Slightly cringing from her tone. She was going super loud and high pitched. I didn't even know she has this kinda power. It's scary.

"Um. So. What do you say? About being the bridesmaid? " I speak to her in a low voice trying not to hear the beast within her again. Man oh man am I going to get it when she gets home.

"Of course I'll do It! What do you think I am? Crazy?? I am soo honored you thought of me Ash!" I blew a quick sigh of relief.

"Why wouldn't I think of you girly? You're the absolute best person I know. " she agreed with me. After that, I have her details about the wedding and other things then we just talked for about an hour or two.

The call ended and I was bushed. We can surly talk for hours. We would have been able to keep on talking but her mom needed her. Okay. I've got my last bridesmaid. But who should I pare her up with?... I know!! Uncle Mamo!! Her loudness has got to run off on him a little bit! Right?

I lay on the couch and close my eyes. Ready for a nice long nap. Five minutes into my nap im woken up by a pair of lips. I slowly open my eyes to see Sano looking down at me with a goofy grin. I was grumpy. He woke me from my nap. Bad Sano. I turn my back on him and resume trying to sleep. "Aww, babe. Don't be that way. I gave you more than two hours to sleep." I groaned. Lily-anne took all my sleeping time.

"You woke me to say what exactly?" His smile grew and he said in a chipper voice, "To take you on a date silly. So get up and get ready!" With that he kisses me again and walked out. I groaned again and desperately wished for sleep. But I did want to go on a date with Sano. So with a heavy heart I got up and showered.

I did my hair into a braided bun leaving a few strands out from the front and put on light makeup. I looked through my closet and decided on a floral corset, pink long back cut short front skirt, white wedges, gold jewelry, and finally a light jean jacket to pull it all off.

Ashley's outfit 😍🔺🔺

I walked down the steps and saw Sano in blue jeans and a tight black button up shirt that showed off the little muscle he had. He looks good. I almost wanna say yum to him.... almost.

He sees me and looks at me so much adoration and love. He meets me at the end of the stairs and hugs me. "You look gorgeous. Absolutely stunning." I look up to see his mesmerizing eyes. We lean in about to kiss when a cough comes from the couch. I look and see Uncle Eisukie. Haha. Oops. Was he always there? He gets up and gives me small hug. "He is right. You look great." I smile at my Uncle and say thanks. He really is a good uncle. They all are.

"Don't stay out to late. And be safe. Okay?" Uncle Eisukie gives Sano a look and Sano returns it. What is going on here. Did I miss something? They give each other a small nod and we head out. Hmm. Suspicious.

He took me to a fancy restaurant. It was the perfect romantic setting. Then we walked watching the last of the sun go down. We walked a bit longer until we reached the movie theater and went in. He was the perfect gentleman all day. He even let me pick the movie. And of course I picked Finding Dory.

I had so much fun with him. It was absolutely perfect. I thought it was over, until he brought me to the park. Waiting there was a set of candles and a radio. I look at Sano Sank in shock and awe. He did this for me? Why? He took me by the hand and pushed play.

A piano started playing, and I recognized the song as Crazy in Love song by Sofia Karlberg. He took my other hand and moved me closer to him. One hand on my waist and the other was firmly in mine. Then he started swaying me back and forth to the beat. We were dancing together. Nothing could be better then this. And I was glad of that. I silently whispered in his ear that I loved him. We looked at each other. Slowly he leaned in and have me sweet and gentle kiss.

I kisses him back and put in more. Slowly the kiss grew into us making out. And I loved it.

Baba's P.o.V.

I had Sano take out Ashley so that the guys and I could set up more cameras and security. He was more than happy to ablidge. He better not be sticking his tongue in my daughter's mouth or I'll cut it off.

If my daughter is safe and not being mouth raped, this should all go exactly like we want. I want this bastard that Is after my family caught and killed.... He he won't touch them. I won't let him.

Just as we finish my beautiful Evelyn walks through the elevator. I go to her and lift her off the ground carting her bridal style kissing her. "There's the gorgeous finance of mine." She laughs and gives me a kiss. "Hello Baba. How was your day?" Still carrying her I say, "Good. Just sad and lonely because you weren't here to be with me. I wanted to cuddle with you." She smiled. "Oh, Baba. You're so silly. Can you put me down now?" I shook my head. "There is nothing silly about being with the woman you love most.

She gives me another kiss. I take her upstairs where we enjoy a nice peaceful dinner just the two of us. I want to make her happy. She doesn't need to know about anything bad. She needs to be kept safe. I love her to much to let her be hurt.

The next morning I woke up early and left a poem and rose for Evelyn on the bed. The guys and I were going to make up a plan to get this son of Nakasu. Sano would now of the plan, he just wouldn't be there. He had to be at school.

Apparently there is something up with Raito. I wonder if that kid is working with Nakasu's son. Nah. Why would they involve a kid into this?

Unknown P.o.V.

I'm going to kill him. I'm going to make him suffer. He'll never smile again. Haha.

I turn to my bored of pictures and throw a knife at a picture of him. Miturani Baba. The knife goes through the pictures head. I give an evil smile and imagine that being the real Baba.

All I need are those two. I turn and see two pictures. One of two days ago with that Evelyn girl at work. And the other from yesterday, a picture of Ashley and her boyfriend dancing at a park.

Love. It's just a sickness. Love makes you weak. And I am not weak. I've never had love. And I'm glad of that.

I used to hope as a child that my father would love me. But I'm over that. All I want now is his acknowledgement. Not his love. So that's why I'm bringing him Baba.

~~~~~~♤♤♤♤♤♤~~~~~~

Who was that? Was that Nakasu's son? Does Raito actually have something to do with this?? Hmmm. Questions questions. All to be answered sooon.
