In Your Arms

Chapter 1: New To Town

 

I’m Ashton Levy and I’m 20 years old. I recently just moved from New York to Alabama… I wanted something different; I can’t wait to see what Alabama holds for me. My plane finally landed in Alabama and I made my way out of the airport and to my car. I unlocked my car door jumping inside starting up my engine and my gps… After a couple of seconds my address popped up on my gps and I pulled off.

 

I was nearly home when I decided to do the dumbest thing ever! I turned into the lane next to me and hit the back of a black Chevy pickup truck…. I shattered this person’s freaking tail light! What was I thinking! I saw the pickup truck turn into a halfway empty parking lot so I followed behind. I parked my car; I jumped out when I saw the guy get out of his truck to check his tail light.

 

“I’m sooo sorry… Let me pay for the damages.” The guy looked up at me and he caught me off guard… He had short light brown hair, light blue eyes and he had a muscular figure.


“Ha-Ha that’s quite alright.”


“Are you crazy, I just hit your car?”


“It’s just a tail a little tail light… I can fix it.”


“I’ll give you my insurance number just in case.”


“How about you give me your number and I’ll take you to dinner.”

 

I stopped and looked at him as he reached in his back pocket grabbing his phone.


“Dinner with me?”


“Yes you.” I hesitantly grabbed his phone and put my number in. I looked up at him and smiled. “Well Ashton, I’ll pick you up at 9.”


“Tonight?”


“Yes if that’s alright with you, I won’t be in town for a couple months.”


“Sure tonight will work… What’s your name?”


“Jake.”


“I guess I’ll see you later tonight then.” He nodded his head yes… I walked back to my car getting inside driving off.


I’m not really sure what to make of all this…but… I’m not going to lie, I kind of like it… I finally made my way home; I was happy that I did because I was tired. I opened my door; got out locking it behind me… I walked to my front door, opening it seeing all of my things were already set up. I took my shoes off and walked upstairs jumping on my bed like I was a little kid. I sat down setting my alarm to go off around 7 so I could have enough time to get ready. Then I laid on my bed and went to sleep.

 

Chapter 2: Date

 

Chapter 2: Date


I began to start getting ready at 7:30 sharp. I was already dressed wearing light blue skinny jeans, a sheer top with a pair of black heels. I didn’t want to do something to dressy when I had no idea what we would be doing exactly… I looked in the mirror seeing my hazel- brown eyes and my perfectly shaped eyebrows. I’m just a beautiful girl… I grabbed my phone and started walking downstairs…


*Ring Ring*


“Hey Jake.”


“Hey, are you almost ready?”


“I am ready.”


“Oh ha-ha okay, where do you live so I can pick you up.”


“954 Peck Woods.”


“Okay, I’m on my way.”


“Okay.” I hung up the phone and started to panic a little… I can’t believe I’m actually doing this right now! This is crazy… Right? I walked to my kitchen and grabbed a glass putting water inside… After about 20 minutes I started to calm down; just started thinking positive…. My doorbell rang and I knew that was Jake… I took a couple seconds to breathe then I walked to my door opening it. I saw Jake with roses in hand.


“Thank you.”


“No problem, you look beautiful Ashton.”


“Thanks, you’re not looking so bad yourself Jake.”


“Ha-Ha thank you.” I sat the roses down and we started walking to his truck. He opened up the door for me and I jumped in and put my seat belt on. Jake looked amazing to be honest… Dressy casual just like me... We talked until we reached our destination. Jake walked over to my side door. This place is very beautiful… My jaw dropped at the sight of it.


“What do you think Ashton?”


“It’s amazing who did this?”


“I did… I wanted this date to be special for the both of us.” I turned towards him and smiled then looked at the beautiful date… Twinkling light were hanging down from the trees and there was a candle lit pathway leading to our dinner table.


“Jake this is the best thing ever!”


“Glad you like it.” He lightly grabbed my hand and led me to our private dinner. We sat down and I could feel my eyes starting to tear up a bit but I fought the tears back and looked at the amazing food.


“Ashton I’m happy you hit me with your car.”


“Ha-Ha I am too.”


“Ha-Ha so tell me about yourself.”


“What do you want to know?”


“Everything.”


“Well I was born and raised in New York; I actually just moved here today… I have six siblings… My parents died in a terrible car wreck when I was eight years old and my aunt took care of us all… Also, I’ll be building my own bridal store soon.”


“I’m sorry to hear about your parents.”


“Oh it’s okay… Anyways tell me about you.”


“Simple really…. I have three siblings and I’m in the Navy.”


“The Navy.”


“Yeah.”


“Wow that’s interesting, so you’re gone a lot huh?”


“Sometimes yeah.”


“What’s that like?”


“It’s okay I’m used to it now but it might get tougher though.”


“Why’s that?”


“I’ll be leaving you behind.”


“I’ll also be here when you get back.” He smiled making me blush a little. I felt a drop hit my cheek… I looked up at the dark sky. “Jake did you feel that?”


“Feel what?” Jake looked up at the sky and we saw lightning and a bunch of rain came pouring down. Jake and I stood up at the same time… I looked at Jake seeing him soaked.


“Race ya to the car.” I took off my heels and took off running, I looked back to see Jake right on my tail. He picked me up spinning me in the air. I looked down at Jake laughing…. “You’re cheating!” I said laughing. He sat me down and held me by my hips. “How did I find a girl like you?”


“Well you see in life thi—“He kissed me gently on the lips…. I opened my eyes and he opened his. That kiss felt magical to me…


“Uh… Can you do that again?” I asked


“I’d love too.” He smiled then leaned in and kissed me again and I kissed him back. I don’t know what it is but this just feels right… He pulled back and we opened our eyes…


“Let me take you home.”


“Okay.” He gently grabbed my hand and led me to his truck; he opened the door closing it once I got in…. We arrived at my home and he walked me to my door kissing me goodnight.

 

Chapter 3: The Lot

 

Chapter 3: The Lot

 

Jake and I have been dating for two months now and I couldn’t be happier. I wanted him to see what I do so he’s coming with me to pick a building for my store. I’m really excited for him to come check out places with me. I’m dressed really professional today, which is kind of weird for me but I have to. I’m wearing a suit…. Well… women’s suit. My doorbell rang; I went to go answer it.

 

“Hey babe.” Jake stared at me for a long time before he could speak.


“Uh… I thought this was a casual thing…”


“This is casual.”


“The hell it is ha-ha, are you a lawyer now?”


“Not funny!”


“Okay okay let’s go to court.”


“Babe!”


“I’m joking ma’am ha-ha okay that was the last one.”


“Better be.” I could hear him chuckling as we walked to his truck, he opened the door and closed it when I was in. We arrived at the first lot and I thought it was perfect it had exactly what I wanted. The platform in the corned was what I really liked.


“When was this built?” I asked the realtor


“Two years ago… so it’s pretty new.”


“How much?”


“105 grand and 107 per month.”


“That’s a really good deal.” Jake’s phone rang and he stepped out of the door to talk… The realtor and I continued to talk when Jake stormed in. “Ashton we have to leave… Now.”


“What?”


“We have to leave now.” I told the realtor that I would call him later to discuss the place… I walked out with Jake in anger and confusion.


“Jake!”


“What.”


“That made me look real unprofessional back there! What’s your problem?” He didn’t respond he just opened my side to his truck and he slammed it shut… He got in the car and didn’t say a word. “Jake what the hell is your problem?”


“You’re the one yelling Ashton.”


“Because you made me look unprofessional back there!”


“I’m sure that place will still be there.” I didn’t say anything else… We just sat there quietly… “Ashton.” “Don’t… Just don’t…” Tears started to fall don my face really fast… I’ve never liked arguing… I really hated doing it with him… He pulled into the driveway and I opened the door myself slamming it behind… Jake ran around the truck grabbing me lightly around the waist… He turned me around; he saw my tears. “Ashton I didn’t mean to hurt you… I’m just under a little stress right now.”


“Why?”


“I have to leave for a few months…”


“Where!”


“Work…”


“Why months…”


“It’s my job… I’ll make it up to you when I get back.”


“Okay… Be safe and come back to me.”


“Always.” He kissed my fore-head getting in his car speeding off.
