The Book of Death - Alexis Sapp (romantic story to read TXT) 📗

our big goal is. I also know he's thinking the same about me. Sigh. It's hard to protect someone who's trying to protect you. It really is. It's sad when you start looking at your own life as expendable. Oh well,I'll get by.

I set my soda down in the little cup holder on the arm rest, and curled up in my chair. Jake put the other armrest up so I could lean against him. I rested my head on his chest. I listened to his heartbeat for a minute while we sat in silence. It was a smooth steady beat,very soothing. The silence was starting to make me uncomfortable. After a few moments I couldn't take it anymore. "Hi." "Hi?" "Heh, it was too quiet." "Oh. okay. What do ya wanna talk about?" I shrugged. What COULD we talk about? Jake let out a small laugh. "How ya feelin?" "Eh I'm feeling fine.You?" "Fine. I'm just wondering what's gonna happen next." "Yeah."

We spent the rest of the plane ride joking about what might happen in Paris."Maybe we'll find out this was all a joke." "Maybe dinosaurs are gonna eat us." "Maybe we'll die." "Possibly."

Dr.Martinez came over the intercom just then. "We're getting ready to land guys so go ahead and get rid of your sodas and sit up." "Okay."

When I turn to look out the window for a second, I hear a soft sound behind me.When I turned back to see what happened, it hit me.

Literally.
