Heaven's POV

David and Mischa joined us to Bahamas to visit Pepper. David and King decided to take a leave from work since it's summer.

"Good morning madam" the guards welcomed us as soon as we get off the yacht. I can see the Mansion uphill, it's been a long time since we last came here, when we're younger we always visit here to unwind and escape the crowded city of California.

"Where's aunt Ysabelle?" I asked the guards politely.

"She left before you came" was all they said. I'm sure it's about business.

"Fudge!" Mischa exclaimed because she slipped when she jumped off the yacht. Good thing David's reflexes were good.

After almost fifteen minutes of walking we reached the front door of the house. We were welcomed again by the maids this time. I didn't waste my time to greet them back, I ran to Peppers room immediately to check on her. I was welcomed by a cool breeze, she's lying on her queen sized bed with a tube on her nose and mouth, the same as mine when I woke up. She looked at peace but I can still see the bruises on her face and body.

I walked closer and grasped her hand.

"I'm sorry if I visited late" I said smiling. I caressed her cheeks gently. She's my favourite cousin and my closest, she's my big sister. No matter what she does in the past I can't stay mad at her. I sighed heavily and looked around, the room is empty. How can she wake up if there's nobody close to her around.

"Pep, you should wake up now. I'm going to college soon and you're still in high-school" I said chuckling. I flinched when I heard a knock on the door.

They all walked closer when I noticed them, I wiped my tears that's been starting to form.

"Hello Pip" David and King greeted her. That's what they call her. We have lots of relatives but I don't know if they already visited her. We stayed in her room for a couple of minutes before we decided to go out and fix our things.

"Mischa, Heaven. This will be your room" King said gently. There were only two available rooms, the others were locked. I suggested that lovers should share room but King refused. So conservative and it bores me.

"Yeah thanks" I said simply. I'm still upset because he won't share room with me, I thought were gonna have an intimate night. King chuckled by my response, he knew I'm upset.

"Change your clothes, we're going to the beach" he said before closing the door gently.

"Upset?" Mischa inquired while smiling at me, she's already removing her clothes in her bag. We're gonna stay for a few days to relax.

"No, of course not" I said hastily while shaking my head. It's rude to admit it.

"Let me help you" I volunteered, I'm lazy to fix my things. I'm folding her shirt when something fell.

"Fudge" I searched for it on the floor and frowned when I saw it.

"Oh a ring" I said while lifting it up. Her face flushed, she snatched it from me but she failed because I foresaw it.

"Give me that" she said annoyed. I grinned and gazed at it.

"Oh, it's the same as your first ring, but it's smaller" I said frowning.

"David gave it to you as well?" I asked her curiously. She tried to snatch it again but she failed for the second time.

"No!" She said irritably. She looks cute right now.

"No? Then who gave you this?" I asked her frowning, she's keeping something that my brother didn't give her. That's suspicious. She averted her eyes on the floor and continued folding her shirts.

"Hey, who gave you this?" I don't know why I want to know, it's not her obligation to tell me because it's her property.

"You gave me that, you're the first one to give me that ring before David does" she said sighing.

"For real?" I said in disbelief. Once again I gazed at the ring.

"So David and I have the same taste when it comes to things" I said chuckling.

"Give me your hand" I commanded.

"Why?" She asked me confused. I didn't respond instead I grabbed her right hand and put the ring on her pinkie finger.

"There" I said smiling widely. She gave me a questioning look.

"Well, I gave that to you so you should always wear that" I said hastily.

"You sure?" She asked me while raising her brow.

"Why not? David won't mind since I'm the one who gave that to you" I said cockily. She sighed and started folding her clothes again. We're like that when I remembered something again.

"Perhaps I gave you that ring when we celebrated our fifth month" she didn't respond.

"Hey, am I right?" I asked while poking her cheek. She rolled her eyes at me.

"Stop it. I told you before it's not important" she said then slapped my hand away. I whistled in response. I don't know why but I do enjoy whenever I remember things that we both share or do. I leaned closer to her.

"Did we already reached our first year anniversary?" She leaned so much closer that I can smell her breath.

"Ouch" I exclaimed when she slapped my forehead.

"You ask many questions" she said laughing.

She stood up afterwards.

"Where are you going?" I asked her annoyed.

"Change my clothes, we're gonna swim right" she said before closing the bathroom door. I'm already wearing my swimsuit under my baggy clothes. I kicked her luggage back to the corner but again something fell when it hit the wall.

It's a box, picked it up and opened it. It's a beautiful necklace and it looks familiar.

"Nah, it's from David of course. Why would I think that it's from me" I said while shaking my head, I closed the box afterwards.

"What are you doing?" I flinched and threw the box back inside the luggage bag.

"Huh? Uh... Nothing" I said nervously. She raised her brow on me in response.

"Let's go" she said before walking passed me.

"Almost caught" I mumbled before sighing in relief.

We decided to eat barbecue and made a bonfire on the beach. King and David were busy grilling pork chop while Mischa and I were sitting on the sand.

"Don't be sad" she said before giving me a glass of wine. I smiled and thanked her.

"I can't help not to, she's alone here" I said before taking a sip of my wine.

"I believe she'll wake up so don't worry too much" she said consoling me. Once again I said thanks.

"How's life?" She asked me after a while.

"Fine, I'm happy what about you?" We didn't saw each other for a week because she's too focused on her studies. Even at school I don't get the chance to see her.

"It's fine as well" was all she said while writing something on the sand. She's drawing a cloud.

"Mischa" I called her attention.

"Yes?" She's still focused on her drawing.

"I asked Maggie a week ago if I really fell in love to a girl and she confirmed it" she just nodded.

"And I asked her who" that's when she looked at me.

"She said I fell in love with her" she averted her eyes back on her drawing.

"Do you believe her?" She asked after a while.

"No" I said truthfully. I lied to David when I said that I believe Maggie.

"Why? She's your best friend" She said in a low voice.

"Because I can't feel anything whenever she's around. I know my feelings when I'm really in love. Yes I lost my memory but not my feelings, I believe that somehow my heart can still recognize it" I said seriously. I frowned when she laughed.

"But you don't, you're stuck with your old feelings" she said pointing to my chest.

"What do you mean?" I asked her confused.

"Nothing" she said and about to stand up when I stopped her.

"You know, I feel like all of you are hiding something from me. The way I see and feel by your reactions every time we're talking, it seems like something's stopping you from telling me the things that I need to know" she glanced to David and King before sighing.

"What do you want to know? What else do you need to know?" She said while looking to the ocean.

"Everything" I said hastily.

"What for? Aren't you happy now?" That made me think.

"I'm happy, I've never been this happy before but I still feel empty deep inside me"

"It's like a big part of me was stolen" I added sighing.

"I'm not in the position to tell you anything" she erased the cloud that she's drawing.

"What you don't know won't hurt you" she added.

"Hurt me? What else could hurt me? King is already here" only King can hurt me. She smiled bitterly.

"See? You're all over King. Why do you have to know your past. It's not important anymore because you're happy now" she said as she took another sip of her wine.

"I'm just... I don't know, maybe curious about a lot things" I said unsure.

"Well then stop it. Don't ask questions that you don't wanna know the answer" she sighed heavily before facing me.

"Heaven, if you're gonna choose. Remembering your past or lose King?" She asked me seriously.

"I don't get you" I said in a low voice.

"Just answer my question"

"I don't wanna lose King. I love him" Her expression became sad. For seconds I doubt my answer but I shoved it out of my mind.

"There are certain things that doesn't need to be questioned" again she took another shot of her wine.

But sometimes there are certain questions that needs to be answered. I replied mentally.

"I guess you're right. I can't afford to lose King now" I said as I stand up. I need to clear up my mind.

"I'm just gonna go for a swim, I'll be back" I winked at her before running to the ocean.

"Mischa that's enough, you already drank too much" David said gently while trying to get the glass of wine. She's already blushing. She shoved David's hand away and emptied the glass in an instant.

"You really do love that wine huh" I said chuckling.

"Let him be David... It's our vacation plus she seems happy tonight" I took a sip of my wine as well.

"Oh yeah I'm so happy! I have the most handsome boyfriend in the world!" She said ecstatically and kissed David's cheeks.

King and I laughed.

"That's so sweet" I said and mimicked what she's doing.

I wish Pepper is with us, our vacation would be so much better if she's around. I sighed afterwards.

"Let's cheers" I said while lifting my glass of wine.

"Kampay!" We all said in unison.

I've always wanted David to have a girlfriend for him to stop pestering me. This night is fun and very relaxing. We already emptied the bottle of wine and I'm a bit tipsy now. The wine has 10% of alcohol so I'm not surprised that Mischa was already drunk, she drank almost half of the bottle.

She must be really happy. I said mentally.

We're talking about Pepper's childhood when Mischa stood up. We all looked at her confused.

"I'm going to the bathroom" she said chuckling, she must have noticed our questioning look.

"I'll come with you" David said and about to stand up when she stopped him.

"You're a man, you're not allowed in the ladies room" she said in a flirty way. I laughed by what she said, she's cute when drunk.

"You. Come with your big sister" she said while pointing at me.

"Uh yeah, sure" I said between laughing. She grasped my hand and pulled me inside the house.

"Wait here boys" I said while waving my right hand.

"I thought you're gonna pee?" I asked her frowning when she passed by the bathroom. She's not letting go of my hand but I don't mind.

"It's just an excuse, I'm already drunk" she said before opening the door of our room.

"Why didn't you tell them that? It's not like they're gonna force you to drink more" I explained gently.

"I don't want to spoil their vacation and I don't wanna be a killjoy. David will accompany me if I said that I'm already drunk" she said while removing her swimsuit. I turned around to avoid seeing her body.

"P...point taken" I said nervously.

"Hey are you fine?" she snapped at me.

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 I counted mentally before I faced her.

I sighed in relief when she's already wearing her baggy shirt.

"You already saw me naked, I even get dressed in front of you" what she said made me blush.

"Haha... Well... I don't remember" I said stuttering. I feel awkward.

"Yeah, you don't remember" she said while nodding in understanding.

"Anyways. I'm going to sleep now. Thanks for walking me here" she said and about to hug me when she slipped.

"Fudge" I exclaimed in shock. Good thing my reflexes were good so I managed to catch her and fell on the bed instead.

"Are you fine?" I asked her anxiously. She gave me a sultry smile in response.

We're inches apart, my hands are stuck on her back. I flinched when she caressed my cheeks. Her hands are warm and it's very soothing.

"Have you ever kissed a girl?" My eyes widen by her question.

"I don't remember, have I?" I asked her back.

Fudge this is awkward. I said mentally.

"Are you curious?" Her thumb landed on my lower lip, she's playing with it. My heart started to beat fast.

"Huh?... I... uh"

"Wanna know the feeling?" She asked me seductively. She's gazing on my lips intently and I hate the feeling that she's giving me, its making me uncomfortable.

"Mischa you're drunk" I said before pulling my hands out of her back.

"Don't you want to take advantage of it?" She said while biting her lower lip. I gulped and built the courage to speak again as I stand up.

"I'm sorry. But I'm not interested" I refused politely.

"Good night" she replied smiling.

I can see on her eyes that she's so sad. I wonder what her problem is, I want to talk to her more but I believe it's not the right time. She faced her right side when she noticed that I'm gazing at her. I sighed heavily, I really can't do what she's asking me to.

She's pretty and I can't believe she has the power to make me weak but it's not right. She's David's girlfriend, my brother's property.

"I'll head back to the beach, please rest" I said in a low voice, she didn't respond. Once again I sighed heavily before turning around. I was about to open the door when I heard her sniffing.

Fudge!

I reached the bed in an instant and check if she's alright.

"Hey. What's wrong?" I asked her anxiously.

"No, uh don't worry it's just a mild headache" she said while her eyes still closed. I turned her to face me, I positioned on top of her and touched the vein on her temple.

"You're lying, your vein is throbbing and you're crying" she didn't respond.

"Tell me what's wrong Mischa?" I asked her anxiously. Her eyes were closed and I'm massaging her temple.

"Nothing, you won't understand" she argued.

"Try me, please" I said hastily, I don't want to see her cry and I don't want her to be sad. I don't know why I'm so concerned to her.

My hand caressed her cheek automatically, that's when she bit her lower lip and opened her eyes. I don't know if she's seducing me or I just really find her so hot.

"Is the offer still available?" I asked her almost whispering as my hand landed on her lower lip.

"Always" she said huskily.

There's nothing wrong if I'm gonna try it, she offered and I'm too weak to refuse, I guess the wine's effect on me is not good.

She's drunk, she'll forget this for sure. I consoled myself mentally before I lowered my face to kiss her.

I can't explain the feeling that I felt the moment my lips landed on hers. She pulled me closer and kissed me hard, she moaned when her tongue played with mine. The taste of her mouth is sweet though she's drunk. I felt an electricity flowed all over my body. I'm enjoying what's happening now.

"Ven?" I flinched and let go of her when King knocked.

"Uh King"

"Are you done? Where's Mischa?" He inquired.

"She already fell asleep. She's drunk" Her eyes were closed, I covered her body with blanket before opening the door.

"Is she fine?" He asked as he walked inside to check up on her.

"Yeah. She's already asleep" I said while scratching my head.

"Let's go" I called him before walking out of the room. I waited for him on the stairs while leaning on the wall. I'm calming myself, my heart is still beating fast.

"Are you okay?" He said after closing the door.

"Yeah I'm fine, let's go" I need to drink more wine.

Fudge Heaven, calm down.

••••

It's our third day now on the Island and we're eating breakfast outside.

"King, let's get married" I said excitedly, the three of them almost spit out their food.

"Heaven!" Mischa called my attention, I gazed at her smiling.

"King is not getting any younger, I mean David and King's birthday is coming" I explained gently.

"Huh? I don't get it" she said confused. Again I smiled.

"King and David has the same birthdate but King is older by two years" I said by making a peace sign.

"I forgot to tell you Mischa" David said hastily.

"Heaven. You're too young to get married" King chuckled.

"Yeah. You're still young. I'm gonna get married first before you" she seconded.

"But King is getting old" I argued.

"You're really persistent Ven. I'm a man, I can wait for you till you graduate in college" he said while tapping my head. I hate it when they treat me like a child.

"I'm serious" I said irritably.

"Not because I'm the youngest here doesn't mean that I don't take things seriously" I stomped my feet in protest.

"Okay that's enough Heaven, we'll talk about your plan when we come back to California. For now let's just enjoy the night" Mischa interrupted before standing up.

"Where are you going?" David asked him.

"I'm just gonna check the Kebab in the griller" she said flatly. David nodded in understanding, we all looked at her while heading to the grilling area. She's wearing a skimpy black thong.

"She's very pretty" I muttered subconsciously.

"Yeah she is" David said hastily. I can see in his eyes that he loves her so much.

"Oh my gosh David. You're in love for real" I teased him.

"Who wouldn't fall in love with her" he said smiling. Suddenly an idea came up. Mischa is in college and will graduate soon.

"Why don't you ask her to marry you?" He's obviously shocked by my question.

"I don't think she's ready yet" he said while shaking his head gently. I gazed to Mischa's direction again and thought for a while.

I think she's just waiting for David to propose. I said mentally.

"How'd you know?" I inquired.

"I just feel it" he said before taking a sip of his wine.

"You should propose to her David" I suggested.

"Ven is right, you should propose now before it's too late" King seconded. He looked to both of us and massaged his chin while thinking.

"Do you have an idea on how to?" Now it's my turn to think.

"Aha!" I snapped my fingers when I thought of an idea.

"On your birthday" I said giggling.

"What will I do?" He asked me looking interested.

"I have a plan but let's not talk about it here" they both nodded in understanding.

"If she say yes... I think it would be great if we'll have a double wedding" I said as I grasped King's right hand and pressed it gently.

My mind and my heart is already fixed. I will marry the man that I dreamed of. When Mischa and I kissed I felt something, I lost my memory but I'm not stupid.

Maggie was not the girl that I fell in love with, I still don't know who but I don't wanna know her. Before
