gestured to leave.

 

 

Rikki spoke quick.

 

"Uh Sara, worked ended an hour ago. Are heading in soon or tomorrow?"

 

Sara's nervous smile perked up, then dropped.

 

 

"Oh, i knew that. Of course, I was just kidding. Ya know,...with people kidding these days.....bye!!"

 

She ran down the sidewalk almost crashing into someone.

 

Me and Rikki got up, cringing at the aftermath and went back to her place.

 

 

I called Jacob on the way there, telling him that I won't be home for another hour.

 

I'll plan a date for the both of us soon, by this week. Before I leave for Rosewood.

Sara's P.O.V

 

 

I didn't know what else to say, I ran as fast as I could in my heels.

 

I bumped into someone.

 

I almost fell, but someone caught me.

 

 

When I looked up, it wasn't some ordinary person.

 

It was someone in my interest, romantically.

 

 

He slowly pulled me back up, so that I could stand on my two feet again.

 

He stood impossibly tall over me. Even if I was wearing heels, he seemed taller.

 

 

I'd take the cute route.

 

Make myself seem smaller. I take off my heels unironically, maybe he'll react.

 

"Sorry, clumsy me." I say.

 

"I need to take off these shoes, before I hurt myself."

 

 

I smiled, and he smile back. I look away abruptly.

 

I rarely ever get nervous, I only act that way around Elle and her co-workers.

 

 

He smiled and looked down at me as I wait for the walk sign to light up.

 

 

And when I stood with my two bare feet on the ground, I suddenly regretted trying to seem cute.

 

He looked up and down at me, catching my attention.

 

Is there something on my face, or hair?

 

 

"I'm sorry for taking such a long time to respond. It's just that I couldn't stop staring, you're so pretty. I'm glad, that I caught you today." he said, smiling the whole time.

 

"Was that suppose to be a compliment? Finally?" I say, my smile ear to ear.

 

 

He reaches over to crosswalk, pressing the button.

 

He laughs and finally stands close to me, very close.

 

 

I felt him staring at me for a while, then I finally decided to talk back.

 

"What? Are ya checking me out?" I asked, looking up at him.

 

He grinned then looked towards the street.

 

 

"Oops, we missed out chance to cross. Guess, we'll have to wait again."

 

I look ahead, and half the people that were behind us, had left to the other side of the street.

 

I laugh, genuinely.

 

 

"It's just that I think....you're really pretty. I don't know what to say. And someone would be lucky, to have you as a girlfriend."

 

I feel my heart jump out of my chest.

 

I get thrown back to a feeling I never wanted to feel.

 

Being someone's girlfriend.

 

 

I looked off to the side, then looked back at him. "Well, I don't have a boyfriend."

 

He smiled, then answered. "Yeah, well you deserve one. You're really cute."

 

"Really? You think i'm cute?" I say.

 

 

I wanted to push and see where it could go.

 

He leaned in closer next to me, staring down at my eyes.

 

"We missed out chance to cross again, and yeah."

 

 

That moment was crucial, we both looked into each other's eyes.

 

His, were like a magic show, looking me up and down.

 

 

I started feeling something again, but that went away when he put his hands on my arm.

 

I think he noticed that I was nervous, probably the way I was breathing.

 

And he wanted to make sure I was alright and I was.

 

 

The crosswalk light finally lit up and I snapped out of my trance.

 

I walked quickly across the street, leaving the random guy I met on the other side.

 

 

After looking back, he spotted me. When a few cars passed, he could still see me in his view.

 

He looked at me with those kind eyes again.

 

For a moment, it seemed like he was staring into my soul.

 

Seeing how lucky he would get to see it again, but I couldn't let that happen.

 

 

The last guy i've been with, broke my heart and left me with no money and no home on the streets of New York after my mom left me.

 

He was the only one I depended on to help me, after I grew up in New York with an older woman who lived in an apartment.

 

 

But this time, it felt different. As if I wouldn't get hurt or heart broken.

 

I wouldn't say I was afriad to love again, but more afriad to love again, even with a guy iImet on the streets of New York randomly.

 

 

I quickly ran down the street to the AUX hotel.

 

 

The AUX hotel is my only home from the last apartment I was in.

 

I couldn't help but think about that guy that I met again, he just couldn't leave my mind.

 

 

It was nice and kind and sweet to think of someone again, and he was cute.

 

I don't even know his name.

 

 

I had to, at some time see this guy again and get things striaght before he's taken.

 

I think there might be a spark between us.

Elle's P.OV

 

 

After driving up to Rikki's house, which is clearly a summer house, I helped her unload the things we bought and put it in her room.

 

She lead me upstairs from the kitchen, after she put the melting ice cream in the fridge.

 

 

When I entered her room, I thought, wow Jason and Rikki were glamorously are rich.

 

But Jason's rich and Rikki's just living in it. His world.

 

 

Just when I was done putting away things, the front door opened.

 

It was Jason. He was wearing a nice suit and holding a case.

 

Rikki came out of the bathroom and ran over to Jason, hugging him.

 

 

He kissed her back and waved to me.

 

"Hey Elle, how's it going?"

 

"Good." I said, opening Rikki's drawer filled with bikinis.

 

 

"Anyways, Rikki we need to hang out it's been.....15 minutes since we arrived, we only have 45 mintues left. Chop chop!" I said to her.

 

Rikki kissed Jason one more time, before following me downstairs.

 

 

We sat in the living room, reading books and talked.

 

It wasn't the same without Marybella. But we made it happen. 

 

"Jacob just texted me, wonder what he wants?" I say.

 

 

Rikki looked over to me, after painting her 2nd coat of nail polish on her toes.

 

"He says to come home quickly, wonder what happened." I replied.

 

 

Rikki sits up one the couch and faces me.

 

"Maybe he wants to suprise you."

 

I smile.

 

"Okay, I admit I haven't been properly home in a week. I stayed at the apartment, but i'm properly going home today. I just need you to drive me to the FARELLE parking lot, to take my car home."

 

 

Rikki grabs her keys and balances on her feet to the front door, picking up her yellow sandals that matched my yellow manicure.

 

We both hopped into the car and she drove me out to FARELLE.

 

 

"Okay here ya go, see you at work tomorrow Elle." she says.

 

"Bye and thanks." I say.

  

"Bye Elle!" Rikki yelled.

 

 

She drove up, just when I was about to start up my car and drive off.

 

Before getting the keys in the ignition, I noticed I left trash in my car.

 

I never learn.

 

 

I got up from the drivers seat and went over to the trash bin outside, to throw it away.

 

In a matter of a moment, Sara walked towards me. She was running, and she was panting.

 

"Elle help...me!" she said in between breaths.

 

 

"Hide me. This guy I met on the streets found me again, when I was walking to central park. He spotted me-"

 

She looked to her left.

 

"And here he comes, hide me! Don't tell him where I am."

 

"What?" I finally respond.

 

 

She ran to my car and hid in the backseat. Then, a young man who was at least over 6ft walked up to me, catching his breath.

 

"Excuse me, have you seen a young woman with a very pretty face, she's wearing a pink dress. I'm sure she just passed by, i'm looking for her. She ran away from me, when I was chasing her back in Central Park."

 

 

I pushed my two lips together.

 

This was tricky.

 

 

I couldn't help but think, that Sara might be in coersion with someone, or at least someone who's trying to get her.

 

"Aww. Cute, looks like you really like her."

 

"Yeah." he said.

 

He ran his fingers through the back of his head, smiling.

 

 

Sara, who was in the back seat of my car, was giving me signals to stop talking and let him go already.

 

I really wanted to embarass her and learn a little bit about this new budding romance.

 

"I bet you really like her that much, huh? To chase her here."

 

 

The guy smiled, and blushed a little.

 

"Aw, you're in love." I say.

 

He nervously looked off to the side, making his smile go away.

 

"Yeah I do, I think that somewhere inside her, she likes me back too. I mean, one look in her eyes and instantly, I knew she was the one and I had to make it happen."

 

 

He looked up at me, realizing he was smiling the whole time.

 

"Who made the first move?" I asked.

 

I knew if I asked more questions, Sara would be mad. But I really liked the way this guy was talking about Sara.

 

 

It reminded me of the first time mentioning Jacob.

 

 

"Any idea what her name is?" I ask.

 

"Um, no. Barely had time to ask. I bumped into her earlier today." he says.

 

 

He smiled at his answer.

 

It new Sara was getting annoyed, because she wasn't popping her head into the back window anymore.

 

 

"Ya know where she is now?" I replied.

 

"No, I don't. But I think she ran this way, towards that 90 Rockers."

 

"Well, you should look there. You never know." I said.

 

"Aw thank you so much."

 

 

Before he ran off, I asked him one more question. 

 

 

"Hey loverboy, just in case I bump into her again, what's your name?"

 

He smiled then answered. "Kyle."

 

Then he ran off, crossing the streets.

 

 

Sara came out of the car calm, walking over to me.

 

"Thanks for buying me time, to ask him love questions!"

 

She crossed her arms over her stomach.

 

 

"Hey don't be mad, at least he said some things about you and his name is Kyle." I say.

 

 

Sara's eyes widened as I proceeded to remind myself to go home.

 

"Really? He said his name? Wait, what did he say about me?!" she asked.

 

She approached me as I got into the driver's seat.

 

 

"He said you were pretty and when he first laid eyes on you, he knew you were the one."

 

Sara's eyes looked to the side of her face, making a smirk. 

 

"He really said that about me?"

 

"Bye." i said, closing the door and starting the car. 

 

 

"Well thanks for the help Elle, i'll see you tomorrow." she blurts back.

 

I waved goodbye and drove off to the suburbs, leaving Sara back in the parking lot.

 

 

 

After getting home, Jacob told me to dress in something nice and that he was gonna take me out.

 

He took me to a fancy, five star resteraunt.

 

 

We ate and we finally got to spend sometime together.

 

Later, Jacob took me to Central Park.

 

"So how was tonight? Since it was a surprise for you, for the both of us!" he said smiling, nudging me in the side.

 

"It was a surprise and I had to admit, it was also romantic. Thanks for tonight." I say.

 

 

We sat down on a nearby bench and he opened up a box that had a cupcake in it, with 1 candle.

 

He motioned me to blow out the candle, once he had lit it.

 

 

"Oh my god, I forgot it was my birthday," I said surprised.

 

Jacob smiled at me. "Happy birthday,"

 

I blew out the candle and hugged him.

 

 

"How did I forget my own birthday, and you remembered." I say.

 

 "I just do, it's my job."

 

He smiles again.

 

"What can I say, I know my girlfriend very well."

 

 

He motions his fingers under my chin and pulls me in for a kiss.

 

I didn't want to ruin the perfect moment and perfect late birthday present, but I felt stinging tears drop down my cheeks and Jacob pulled back.

 

"Are you okay?" he asked softly.

 

"I'm just so...emtional right now and after what you did tonight was...something i've always wanted. In my entire life."

 

 

I shuffle to wipe my tears and he helps, by giving me a tissue.

 

I hugged him again and he held me tighter, making me feel comfortable in his arms. Even with the cold air blowing in my face.

 

I buried my face deeper in his coat and he still held me close.

 

 

I didn't realize I had somehow fallen
