Kapitel 17: My First Love

Miracle's POV

We went back early to the estate, I am grounded again, as usual, Dad fired the bodyguards on duty that day. I am in my room answering my assignments when I heard knocking on my door. I get up and find Johnny standing on my doorstep.

"Hey! How are you kiddo?" He asked me, then he looked at me earnestly.

"I am fine John, where is my Dad?" I asked him.

"He left early, he has an early flight, he is on his way to London." He said.

"Oh! I see, he didn't even come to say goodbye." I said, I felt hurt, this is the first time my father left without telling me where he is going this time.

"He is still angry with you, as a result, he doesn't want me to have a day off, until you will behave Miracle."

"John, you know me, I am not a bad girl, I know it was my fault I voluntarily go with Amanda, I wasn't really planning to cut class, but I wanted to see him John." I said, I looked at him sadly.

"So, Ms. White has a boyfriend now." He said.

"Did Dad tell you about him?" I asked him.

"No, but judging by the way you react, I know you have a boyfriend, can you tell me how he looks like?"

"John, he is so handsome, he looked like a bad boy wearing tattered jeans on our date, but he is gentle and kind, I think I am in love John." I said happily, I find John smiling at me.

"Why are you smiling?" I asked him.

"Nothing, I am just happy to see you this way, you always look sad Miracle, I know it, this is the first time I really see you with real happiness in your face, even you are smiling with your friends, I know deep inside you, you are trying to hide all the pain in your heart." I was shocked to hear his words, I can't believe that Johnny knows how I really felt.

"Watching you grow longing for your Dad to be with you all the time makes you unhappy, then you miss your mother every day, you always watch her video Miracle, I know you are yearning to see her, even though you know it was impossible, since she was already gone." John continued talking.

"Mira, you are like a daughter to me, I know you are a good girl, I want to help you, but I don't want you to get hurt at the end." He said, his blue eyes are looking at me tenderly.

"Thank you, Johnny, but what are you so worried about?" I asked confused.

"I don't want you to get hurt, first love can be very exciting and painful at the same time, heartache can ruin beliefs and even sanity sometimes." He said.

"Relax, don't worry John I won't let my heart dictate my mind, it would be the opposite." I smiled at him, he shakes his head and smiled at me broadly.

"Am I really grounded again?"

"I regret to inform you Mira, but the answer is yes, but as long as I am with you, I can accompany you wherever you want to go, and I will be the one to answer to your father." He said, it made me smile even more.

"Well, first I don't want you to lose your job, and I can't afford to lose you, I felt closer to you compare to my Dad, and please John, don't tell him about that, or else you will surely lose your job." I said, then he laughed loudly.

"I wonder how Thomas will react the moment he will learn that you like me more than him."

"I love my father, John, but he is always busy, he seldom finds time to be with me lately, then he hit me last night. I hate him for doing that, but I can't really hate him you know, I know I am at fault."

"Thomas loves you Miracle, he wants you to be safe always, believe me he hated himself for doing that to you, it wasn't his intention to hurt you, your father is a busy person, but I know he only cares for you." He said solemnly.

"You better change your dress now Mira, it is time for your martial arts training." He said, I nodded to him, and he gets outside my room while closing the door silently.

I spend my whole Saturday morning training and spending more time with Johnny, I wonder where my cousin went, I haven't seen her the whole day.

"Hey, how's my girlfriend?" Asked Jaxson on the other line, hearing his voice makes me think of his lips, I don't know why I wanted to be with him again.

"I am fine, I just finish my martial arts training." I said.

"Wow! So my girlfriend is really hot!" He said, I can visualize his handsome face smiling at me.

"Of course, I am hot, that is why you want me, right?" I said laughing.

"Yes! You are so beautiful and hot Miracle, actually I called because I want to spend time with you today, after my work here at the shop, do you think you can meet me?" He asked, I suddenly felt cold, how can I tell Jaxson that I am not allowed to see him anymore.

"About that, I think I can't today, I have a prior engagement that I need to attend to." I said, I hate lying to Jaxson, but I don't want his life to become miserable.

"Oh! It makes me sad, but I understand, when do you think we can see each other?" He asked, his voice is so hopeful, I don't want to let go Jax yet, he is my boyfriend now, how can I give up on him easily.

"Maybe I can find time tomorrow, I will text you okay?" I said excitedly, maybe John can help me to meet Jaxson.

"Okay then, I need to go back to work Mira, my break is up, see you tomorrow then, take care, I miss you, bye Miracle." He said, then he hangs up the phone.

I am lying on the bed with a wide smile on my face, I am thinking about Jax, I like the way he talks, his voice is really hypnotizing. I love the way he says my name, I think I am really in love with him. I am so happy to finally feel this way.

"John! Where are you?" I asked him over the phone.

"I am in my quarter, why Mira? Is there anything you need?" He asked.

"Well, there is a big favor I need from you Johnny."

"Wow! You make me so nervous Mira, what it is?"

"Can we go out tomorrow? I just wanted to see him John, please don't say no, my heart is dying Johnny you need to help me with this." I asked him, I felt so anxious waiting for his reply.

"Where are we going Mira?" He asked me seriously.

"He is working part-time at the car shop, do you think you can bring me there?" I asked him again.

"It depends." He said.

"John, please! You are the only one who can help me with this, I really need you." I was begging Johnny, then I heard he sighed.

"Mira, I will help you, but you have to promise me no more cutting classes, okay?"

"Yes! I promise you John, I won't do it again." I felt so happy and excited.

It is Sunday morning and I wake up so early, I take a bath and spend so much time in the mirror. I wanted to look good, it took me a long time to decide what should I wear, finally I choose to wear my new Salvatore Ferragamo floral printed shirt dress, and my favorite Salvatore Ferragamo black flats, I let my long curly hair loose. I just want to feel free and alive.

I am in a hurry, I don't want Johnny to change his mind, I almost run to his quarter. I composed myself before I knock on his door.

"Miracle! Why are you here? Why didn't you wait for me in your room?" He asked, I can see the confusion in his face.

"I will just wait for you outside John, I am so afraid that you will change your mind." I smiled at him sweetly, then he close his door and tugged me going to the parking lot, I am glad that he is ready to go, I can't hide the smile on my face.

"You know Mira, I am waiting for this day that you will ask me to meet your prince charming, but I wasn't expecting this so soon, and worse, we are doing this behind your father's back." He said, I can feel the uneasiness in John's voice, but I am still glad he is doing all this for me.

"John I am sorry, and I want to say thank you for doing all this to me." I said, as I seated beside him on the front seat.

"Miracle, please transfer to the back seat." He said.

"I want to sit here beside you John." I insisted.

"If you are not going to move right now, I think we will be here in the parking lot for the whole day." He said firmly, I don't have a choice, but to stand up and sit at the back of the car.

I know I made John angry, I can't blame him, I asked him to come with me to meet my boyfriend, it sounds so crazy, but all I want at the moment is to see Jaxson. I just wanted to be with him even for a while, I am not sure what will happen to our love story, but one thing I am sure, Jax will always be a part of my life.

I open the car door fast the moment we halted in front of the car shop. I told Johnny to stay as far away from the shop, so that Jaxson will not feel awkward, I know it is not easy being with a bodyguard, I walk slowly into the garage, some mechanics stop what they are doing. They are looking at me with wonder, I look around, but I can't find Jaxson, I didn't text him because I want to surprise him.

"What can we do for you Miss?" Someone asked from behind me, when I turned around I see Ryan standing so near me, I try to smile at him, I don't really like him, he is watching me with lust in his eyes and I can't believe that he is totally checking me out, Amanda is my cousin, I couldn't believe he is like this, I am wondering what Amanda had seen in him.

"Wow! Look who is here, the million dollar baby of the White empire." He said, his fellow mechanics are all looking at me now.

"Hello Ryan, I am just wondering if Jaxson is around?" I asked him, I can feel my knees were trembling.

"I am, sorry Miracle he didn't show up today, I think something come up, but I can give you his home address." He said, then turned around, I am contemplating what to do, at the end, I followed him, he wrote the address of Ryan on a piece of paper, and handed it to me.

"Here! I hope you will not be frustrated." He said meaningfully, I wanted to ask him what he means, but I don't want to be near him anymore.

"Thank you, Ryan, have you seen Amanda?" I can't help to ask, since I haven't seen my cousin yesterday.

"You will find out soon!" He said, he winked at me, and left me more confused.

I called Johnny, I am so glad to see the car coming in my direction, Ryan is giving me a bad feeling, I don't know but I can feel that something is not right.
