The Billion's

Chapter 20

IVA'S POV

"Does this town have Starbucks?" Ash nodded. We decided to have our breakfast outside since Uncle Hayes and his family were very friendly people.

In short, Ash was not comfortable at all. For me, they all just want to be on my good side. I chuckled when I remembered Uncle Hayes twitching eyes when his kids asked me a very rude question.

"Over there." Ash pointed to a building. I smiled when I saw the familiar logo.

"Amen for that then." Ash chuckled.

"Are you still with those Heaven and Hell thing? I'm sorry for them ok?" I laughed.

"What? Your aunt is one bitchy lady."

"True that." Ash laughed together with me. When we stopped the car in front of the building, I saw someone sitting on the pavement.

"Do you know her?" Ash turned and shake her head.

"Maybe but I don't remember." I'm curious to why she's sitting on the pavement. There's a bench near her.

"Here.." I handed her my credit card.

"Order for me. I'll be waiting." Ash took it.

"What kind?" I shrugged.

"Any kind. Except for soy." Ash nodded and went out.

I got out and locked my car. I went to the girl sitting on the pavement and sit next to her. She looked up a little and moved to the side, away from me.

"You know there's a bench over there right." She nodded.

"What's up? Why are you sitting here alone?" She didn't say anything. I was about to asked again when I heard she said something.

"Pardon?" She sighed.

"I'm tired of people saying no all the time.."

"Saying no? What do you mean?" She finally looked at me and for a brief second her eyes widen. Is it something on my face?

"It's nothing really." Ash went to my side and handed my drink.

"Thanks." I thanked her. Ash touched her shoulder and handed hers.

"I didn't order this.." she decline. Ash smiled.

"From us." I helped Ash to sit on the pavement with us.

"Why are you two sitting here? I mean from the type of car your driving, you're not from here.." I chuckled.

"We're from LA. Here to visit her family." I explained.

"My name is Ash. This is Iva. You?" Ash introduced us.

"Jacqueline... Just call me Jac." I smiled.

"Why are you sitting on the pavement Jac?" She shrugged.

"I am trash myself. So why not." She gave us both a dry laughed.

"Why would you say that?" I asked. She showed me a letter and chuckled. I took the letter and read it through. Ohhh... She was rejected from every university she asks.

"Life is fun." She chuckled.

"Well. It's just a piece of paper. You will find another thing you're good at." I assured her.

"That was my only hope." She said slowly.

"How old are you Jac?" Ash asked.

"22."

"Oh. Do you work?" She shakes her head.

"It's complicated... People assume because I'm lazy but it's not. Sometimes you just have to do to make someone happy right."

Suddenly I saw blood dripping from her wrist. She let her sleeve down and smiled. Her smile was not sincere, It's pain. She carefully folded the paper and kept it inside her jeans pocket.

"Where do you live?" Ash asked.

"Around." She's playing with her straw.

"I noticed when she pushed back her black hair, old scars were visible. Was she...

"Nice watch.." She compliments my watch.

"Thanks. It's a present from my father." She smiled.

"That's nice... Loving family?"

"You can say that.." Suddenly we heard a group of girls chuckling and talking to each other.

That moment I could see she smiled a little, real smile. She released a heavy sighed and looked down again. I turned to the group and noticed a girl looking at us.

"Beautiful... So beautiful." She said slowly.

"Do you ever feel like life is constantly killing you alive?" She suddenly asked.

"I was bullied before moving to LA. It resulted in my bad leg." Ash told her.

"Is it nice in LA?" Ash nodded.

"I have friends now.." Ash smiled at me.

"Honestly you look familiar to me.." I said to her. She looked up to me.

"I'm Jacqueline Dohim. We've met before." Oh, yea!

"That writer!" She laughed. She looked at the time and smiled.

"Well..." She stood up.

"I have to go.. Thanks for the drink."

"See you around Iva... Ash." She excuse herself.

"Let us send you.." I offered. She shakes her head.

"It's fine.." She smiled but her smile never reached her eyes.

"Something's not right.." Ash said as we watched her go.

"I feel the same way too," I said to her.

THIRD PERSON POV

Alessa smiled at Aunt Tami as she preparing breakfast for them. Alessa turned at Arnold before sighing. She feels guilty for staying last night.

"I want to see Iva," Alessa whispered.

"I want to see my sister.," Arnold whispered back. When Arnold's grandma walked in and seated, Alessa was being rude and didn't greet her. Arnold nudged her side.

But Alessa still didn't say anything.

"Good morning.." Arnold said instead. His grandma didn't respond.

"Tell me Alessa... How can you be friends with such low life?" Aunt Tami asked. Alessa was this close to throwing the plates at her. Arnold calming hands immediately on her shoulder.

"Aunt Tami... This is such a delicious meal." Arnold said in return.

"Thank you, boy.." She smiled.

Eric and Dylan walked in together with their father. Dylan smiled at them all but Eric just glared at Arnold.

"I thought your gay sister will come to breakfast. Where is the devil?" Arnold didn't say anything neither do Alessa.

"By now everyone in town will be talking about our family." Eric started.

"How can we live with the shame mom.." Aunt Tami sighed.

"Just imagine how people will see and judge us at church tomorrow." Aunt Tami said. Arnold abruptly stood up and grabbed Alessa's hand.

"I'm tired of hearing this." Arnold started.

"That girl you call a sinner was the person who paid for Ash's medical bill. Her family helped my parents to get on their feet. Where were you when we needed you? Nowhere! Now if you would excuse us, we want to go home to LA, using her PRIVATE JET..."

Arnold went back to his room and packed his things together with Alessa. Alessa watched as Arnold angrily packed his things up.

"Call Ash or Iva. Let's meet somewhere.." Alessa nodded and tried to call for them.

When they both done, they went out of the house without even saying goodbye.

"Where are they?"

"Starbucks." Alessa replied.

"Perfect," Arnold said and started the car and drive towards where Ash and Iva was.

When Arnold parked his car in front of Iva, he noticed they both sitting on the pavement, drinking. Alessa and Arnold got out and wonder why they both sitting on the ground.

"Are you two drunk?" Ash chuckled.

"No. Just we kinda like it sitting on the ground. This dirty ground.." Iva replied.

"I'm hungry. Let's get something to eat." Arnold said.

"We just did." Ash retorted.

"I thought you're eating at that house filled with angels," Iva said and earned a nudged from Ash. They watched as Arnold and Alessa walked inside a cafe.

Ash and Iva were waiting by the car just talking. While Arnold and Alessa went to have their breakfast. They hadn't been talking about anything important when they hear a women scream from across the street.

It's the same girl who looked at Iva when she was with Jac. They both turned and wonder what's with the screaming. She was looking up and pointing up by where they were a figure standing.

"Why is she screaming?"

Iva asked just before a figure falls from the building and lands in front of them. At first, they both stood there, in shock. They were both covered in blood and pieces of the girl's brain from where her head exploded on impact.

Iva noticed a familiar attire.

"Jac?!" Iva breathes out. She watched as her face was unrecognizable. Blood everywhere, people started to gather around.

Some whispered and wonder. Some looked at the dead body in disgust. Some just feel like she's doing this to burden everyone. Iva can't believe what just happen.

She never thought that the person they were just talking to will be jumping off the building. All Iva could do now was turned away. Suddenly she remembers Ash.

Iva turned to Ash who had been shaking.

"Ash look away. Look right at me." Ash looked at Iva.

"GET IT OFF ME!"

Ash began to scream and wiped the blood off of her but it only made it worse. Iva tried for minutes to calm Ash down until the paramedics arrived.

They gave her something to calm her nerve and took her to the hospital with Iva.

*BILLION'S HOUSEHOLD*

"Iris wake up.." Iris stirred but she's not waking up.

"Blondie... Eliza... Prepare some breakfast for us and Zeva." Blondie and Eliza nodded and walked out of the room with only their lingerie.

"Wait wait wait... With robes... There are kids here." They both chuckled and grabbed the robes. Blanche waited for the door to be closed before locking it.

She started to stripped off her lingerie and went on top of Iris.

"Iris.." She called out and moved her hips a bit. Iris still kept her eyes closed.

"Iris..." Blanche leaned in and started to kissed and nibbled on Iris's neck.

Iris moaned in her sleep while her wife started to feel annoyed. Without thinking it throughly, she licked her fingers and shoved into her wife's core. Iris's eyes shot open, gasping as she feels her wife's fingers moving in and out of her.

"You're going to wake up or not?" Blanche whispered. Iris shakes her head and enjoying the pleasure she received.

What?" Blanche teased.

Ahhhhhh..." Iris moaned and grabbed her wife by the waist and pulled her down.

"f**k me harder..." Iris moaned and Blanche chuckled.

"Last night wasn't enough?" Iris shakes her head.

"I want more... Harder... Faster... Make me cum.." Iris's hot breath just made Blanche having a tingling feeling inside.

"Well... If you insist.." Blanche, without any care, inserted another finger and moved it roughly in and out of her wife's throbbing core.

"Ahhhhhhh... YESS... Oh God, that's f*****g good!...." Iris moaned.

Iris grabbed her wife's body and turned her around. Blanche was too surprised and just let Iris do whatever she wants. Iris chuckled and leaned in to kiss her wife's lips.

Iris pulled away and Blanche already misses her wife's lips. Iris moved back a little and grabbed both legs and rested them on her shoulder.

"Let's see who will c*m first.." Iris winked and rammed her core onto her wife's.

AHHHH!" Blanche yelled a little and slowly it turned into a very erotic sound of pleasure.

As Iris grind herself to her wife's, she's laughing and enjoying the feeling she's giving to the woman she loves the most.

Iris moved back a little and place her arms out for leverage and rubbing her core to her wife's, with the same amount of intensity and speed. When she noticed Blanche moaned even louder, she knows she's close.

Iris quickly positions herself and inserted two of her fingers inside her wife and thrust as deep as she can.

"You like that?... Say it and I'll go further.." Iris whispered.

"Please... f**k me... Harder.." Blanche opened her eyes a bit, showing how bad she wanted Iris. Her mouth open ajar when Iris didn't stop moving her fingers in and out.

Seconds later the whole room filled with Blanche screams of pleasure. By now they know the whole house heard them. Watching her wife c*m making Iris c*m on her own as well.

She let her finger out and rammed her wife's core and smiled.

"I won.." Iris winked and rested on top of Blanche's body.

"Let's go downstairs. I'm hungry." Blanche said to her wife. Iris let her go and watched as Blanche walked towards the bathroom naked.

When Blanche walked out and saw Iris still on the bed, she went to the foot of the bed and pulled Iris's off the bed forcefully.

Iris rubbed her butt and sighed.

"Okay okay.." She said while Blanche glared at her. Blanche waited as she's doing her morning routine. Once Iris came out, Blanche grabbed her wrist and went to the dining hall.

Iris noticed her siblings sitting on the table but not the kids.

"Where's Adam and Zeva?" Iris asked as she seated.

"A blonde woman took them outside," Zoe replied.

"Blondie?" Zoe chuckled.

"That's her name?" Blanche and Iris nodded.

The door that connected to the outside open and a very excited Adam and Zeva running in.

"Mommy look!" Iris looked at Zeva's hand.

"She's good." Iris chuckled and picked her daughter up and let her sit.

"You like her Zeva?" Zeva nodded.

"She's pretty..." Blondie blushed.

"Where are you going?" Blanche asked when she saw Blondie and Eliza went outside.

"Umm... Eat.." Blondie said. Blanche patted her side.

"Sit here.." Blondie and Eliza looked at each other.

"Just sit.," Iris said, commanded. Blondie and Eliza nodded. Gemma walked back in with Adam.

"When will Iva be back?" Gemma asked.

"Tomorrow? I think." Zoe said with her mouth full.

"Adam... Do you want to follow me and Jordan or with Aunt Zoe and Karen today?" Adam took a big bite of his burger and pointed Zoe.

"Karen promise read me a story." Gemma smiled and kissed his head.

"Remember Adam... Don't bully her. She's sick. Promise?" Adam nodded.

Gemma wiped some sauce from her son's mouth.

"Zoe..." Iris called out. Zoe was too engrossed with her iPad to listen to her sister calling.

"Zoe..." Iris called out a little louder. Still, no response. Iris had enough as she grabbed a hand full of fries from her plate and threw it at Zoe.

Zoe abruptly stood up and wiped off the fries from her shirt.

"THE f**k IRIS.." Zoe cursed. Gemma immediately covered Adam's ear. For Zeva, she heard her mother say that a lot.

"What?" Zoe asked.

"I was trying to ask you if you could babysit Zeva today and tonight." Zoe nodded and went back to sit in her chair.

"As long they okay with listening to my rehearsal." Iris turned to Zeva and whispered. Zeva nodded and continued to eat.

Giovanni and his wife walked in together. They both were wondering about Blondie and Eliza but when they saw how Iris kissed Blanche and them both, they got the idea.

Alana went to sit next to her husband and smiled at their guest.

"So Blanche... New girls?" Blanche nodded.

"Sugar babies. We will have a lot of fun shopping today." Blanche winked at Blondie and Eliza.

Zoe was smiling at her iPad. She's currently talking to her secret admirer. She doesn't know how this man or woman know her emails but she's glad. She's glad that this person could woo her heart just by texting.

"I'm done... Come on girls. Let's get ready..." Blondie and Eliza nodded at Blanche.

"Be good Zeva. Listen to your aunt okay?" Zeva nodded.

"Okay.." Blanche kissed her forehead and lead the way to the room.

IRIS'S POV

"Just pick anything you like girls.." I said to them all. Blanche knows how I roll but these two...

I smiled at them and nodded. Blanche went to my side.

"You need to join us. They seems like reluctant to spend your money like I do." I chuckled.

"Honey... No one can shop like you.." Blanche pout and turned away from me. She went to Blondie and Eliza.

I hugged Blanche from behind and watched as Blondie and Eliza choose their dresses. They both turned to us and show me what they think was cute.

Blondie chooses a white bandeau dress while Eliza decided to be sophisticated by choosing a black long sleeve wrap dress.

"Okay. Try it on.." They both went to the fitting room.

Minutes later they both walked out and I was satisfied. I nodded and they both went inside again to change.

"What about you honey? No new dress?" Blanche shakes her head.

"But you need to buy me a very expensive jewelry." I laughed.

"Okay then... Let's buy them. Pay for their dresses." I gave Blanche my card and waited for them outside the store.

As we all walking towards the jewelry store, a frantic Iva called me. She told me how she was the witness of someone jumping off the building.

"But are you okay?" I ask her.

"I'm fine. But please come here.." She begged. I looked at the time.

"Okay. I will... Just wait at the hospital for me." I hang up and looked at Blanche and the others.

"Turns out we need to skip jewelry. Come on. Let's go to Jackson Hill now." I informed.

"What?" Blondie suddenly said.

"Iva need some help." I turned to Blanche.

"But I promise will buy you the jewelry. Okay?" She nodded and informed Blondie and Eliza.
