When The Sky Falls - Book 2 - N. Y. (love novels in english .txt) 📗

asleep, until I woke up in bed.

 

I got out of bed and headed downstairs, still realizing I was in the dress I wore tonight. 

 

 

I saw Jacob in the kitchen, making something.

 

As I continued down the steps, he noticed me and looked over to where I was.

 

"Well hello sleepy head, how was your late night nap?" he asked.

 

 

"Good." I said nodding my head, with tiredness in my eyes.

 

"Is that my birthday cupcake?" I asked.

 

I pointed to the pretty design on a cupcake, on the kitchen counter.

 

 

"Yes and you didn't eat it, before you fell asleep one me. So now, you can eat it if you want." Jacob said.

 

He turned around and went to the fridge.

 

"Thanks, I will and good night." I said, kissing Jacob before heading upstairs.

 

 

I sat in bed eating my cupcake, before ultimately deciding to go back to sleep.

 

It was the best late birthday date night I've ever had.

 

 

Chapter Ten: Love At First Site

 

  

I woke up the next morning to a huge headache. It was the worst headache i've ever had in so long.

 

I think all the sweets and desserts that I had last night had an effect on me.

 

 

I took pills to make it go away.

 

 

Jacob had to go out of town this week, at least out of state and the country.

 

He had a job meetup in Tokyo and I had to let him go.

 

I couldn't force him to stay home.

 

 

I missed him enough the past week, but when Jacob has to do a job, he does it.

 

We both have good paying jobs, it's a sacrifice we have to make.

 

"I'm gonna miss you, again. It's too bad you can't go another or time or reschedule." I say.

 

 

He replied, after fixing his tie.

 

"I wish, but if I reschedule that means i'm gonna meetup with them next year. This is the only time to launch our new project for my company. And I have to be there and represent."

 

 

He grabs his bags and suitcase.

 

"I will hopefully see when you come back from Rosewood, next week. Depending on the time it takes to travel to Japan."

 

He kisses my forehead and walks out the door.

 

 

"Wait!" I said following him.

 

"What, Elle?"

 

 

I smiled then answered. "What if I drive you there, then it wouldn't be goodbye till you board the airplane."

 

He smiled and motioned towards the car.

 

Despite that I was wearing the same dress from yesterday, I grabbed sneakers from the closet and closed the door behind me.

 

 

I drove Jacob to the airport.

  

When we arrived at the airport, Jacob got out first. He rushed to get his things out.

 

He didn't answer when I asked him why he was rushing.

 

 

I ran inside, after him. Making sure he got in safe.

 

"Jacob!! wait!" i said running after him.

 

 

Instead of asking to slow down, he smiles.

 

 "Why would you run all the way to your departure entrance and not tell me why you were running in the first place?" I said finally standing up.

 

"To do this,"

 

 

I was confused until he pulled me into a kiss.

 

He had his hand on my waist and the other holding the back of my head.

 

 

After a second or two, he let go.

 

"You're so dramatic." I say, with a laugh.

 

An incoming announcement started, and we all heard througout the airport.

 

"All passengers please board the plane, for flight 2945340, please board the plane."

 

 

He smiles and looks from the other side of the entrance to me.

 

"Gotta go, i'll see you when I get back."

 

 

He kissed me one more time, in a hurry, then left to board the plane.

 

After walking back out of the airport to my car, I got a call from Sara.

 

 

"Oh my god, hey. How did Sara get my number?" I said when I answered her call.

 

There was silence on the other end.

 

"Hello, Sara why do you have my number?"

 

 

Before Sara could speak, I heard traffic noise in the background.

 

"Sara where are you?" I asked.

 

"Elle i'm in the park near the starbucks you go to with Rikki."

 

"Okay, why are you there?" I asked

 

 

"Because I need your help. I'm meeting up with Kyle today. He found me on social media and somehow he got my number and started texting me like crazy."

 

 

"Okay, i'm on my way. I'm at the aiport, so it'll take a while"

 

I hung up the phone and started my car.

 

I drove out to the starbucks and met up with Sara.

 

 

"Hey...Sar-!"

 

"Stop!!" she yelled back, before I could say her name.

 

 

I looked around and saw no one coming my way.

 

I look back at Sara, who was pulling me towards a table to sit at.

 

 

"Shhhhh!!" she said loudly.

 

I look back again.

 

"He might hear you." she whispered.

 

 

I looked across the street and saw Kyle talking to a lady.

 

"Oh, that's why you'fd all dressed up like your going to the beach in the hamptons." I said, sitting up straight.

 

 

She looked across the street, pulling down her sunglasses to see him. Then looking back at me.

 

"I can't make him stop stalking me, it's getting weird,....or am I following him?"

 

 

Sara questioned herself for a moment then focused back to me.

 

"I think you both are, him even more." I said.

 

"Anyways, I think he's crazy or something. He's always on my site and everywhere I go. Just yesterday, I caught him staring at me and getting my attention at the grocery store while I was buying eggs."

 

"Must be some great eggs. Wow, that's one interesing guy." I said.

 

 

"I don't think Kyle's gonna leave me alone until, he sees me upset. Or I beg him to date me," Sara said nodding her head.

 

That gave me an idea.

 

"Sara, how would you feel about being my best friend for the next 2 minutes. You know, to make Kyle feel bad and jealous that he's not with you right now?"

 

"What's your plan?" she asked.

 

 

I whispered the plan in Sara's ear and she agreed.

 

She took most of her beach get-up and we strut down the sidewalk, getting Kyle's attention, and it did work.

 

 

Boy he was jealous, super jealous.

 

He was looking striaght at us.

 

 

Sara and I acted as if we hadn't seen each other in forever, and it got Kyle's attention good.

 

But instead of making him more jealous, he kissed the girl he was talking to on the cheek.

 

 

Sara's expression dropped and she looked at me confused and sad at the same time.

 

Our plan somehow worked and backfired on us.

 

Sara walked back towards starbucks again and I followed behind.

 

 

"Sara that doesn't mean he's not into you. He probably did that on impluse, or she's really just a friend. If you guy's call what you have frolicking. That could be his sister or his mother or an ex-girlfriend..." I say.

 

 

"Doubt she's his mother, she's too young."

 

Sara had a devastated look on her face, she looked away.

 

I had to think about what to say, to make her feel better.

 

 

"Anyways, next time...text me!" I yelled back to her.

 

She looked back at me, then faked a smile.

 

I knew I pissed her off, but I had to make it stop. I had to distract her.

 

I sat across from her again.

 

 

"Listen you need to get yourself together." I said.

  

She looked back at me furious, then starting thinking.

 

 

"You're kinda right, I do need to get myself together."

 

She sounded frustrated, but she had the spirit. 

 

I decided to head home and get some rest, then go to work later. 

 

 --

 

Sara's P.O.V

 

 

I looked over across the street and saw Kyle look at me, then kiss the girl again. This time, I didn't have a perfect view of Kyle kissing her on the cheek.

 

I was starting to feel jealous, I never get jealous. 

 

 

Why would he go out with a girl like her, than go out with me.

 

Maybe he thinks i'm a total wreck and i'm running away from him, because he thinks I don't like him.

 

 

I made a huge mistake that other day I met him, I wished I wasn't so weak around men and still afraid to love someone. 

 

Especially, a guy like Kyle.

 

Seeing Kyle do that to me and to the random girl, really annoyed me inside.

 

 

But it left a sad scar on the outside, like my bruise.

 

 

I didn't want to make eye contact, so I quickly ran from Starbucks back to the AUX hotel.

 

I think Kyle spotted me leaving. I picked up the pace.

 

I ran until he was right in front of me.

 

 

"Sara stop!"

 

"Well look who finally decided to talk to me, after all the stalking, and the looks. And the glares and the stares and everything! Can you please leave me alone, what do you want from me?!" I start.

 

 

When he caught his breath, he didn't say one word.

 

"Okay listen...Kyle, stop torturing me with all this attention from girls and stop following me, it's really annoying." I said.

 

 

I walked ahead and yelled for a taxi, so I wouldn't walk the rest of my way home, if that meant Kyle would be following me again.

 

Just then, a taxi came and I almost got in, when an arm got a hold of me.

 

"Sara wait.....I can explain."

 

 

I stepped off to the side, with his hand still on me.

 

"Okay spill," I say.

 

 

He stood there for a moment confused.

 

"Well?" I asked.

 

He still stood there speechless.

 

 

I went to the taxi that was waiting for me.

 

"Go ahead, i'll hitch a ride."

 

I gestured towards the taxi driver.

 

 

It left and I was with Kyle, out in downtown.

 

"Listen Sara, I didn't mean to hurt you because I was trying to make you jealous." he finally said.

 

"So wait, you only tested me to save you from all that girl, to see if I really like you?" I replied.

 

 

"Well, kinda, in a way. And because I didn't think you were interested in me, like howIi am in you." he said.

 

"Well you don't know that. I didn't say I wasn't interested, but we can try something else out instead of you trying to get my attention. It's annoying!" I say.

 

 

"Okay no problem, but let me just say, when you tried to single me out with the person who told me your name the other day, it made me feel jealous. Because, I wanted to come over there and see you and make sure you never left my sight." he said.

 

 

I looked over the side, my face turned hot.

 

"Well is that how you show love to me?" I yelled, in atempt to avoid what he said.

 

"Yeah and i'll try to get better at it....for you." 

 

 

"You better, otherwise, your evicted from my own two black eyes." I finally said.

 

He smiled as I relax from the interesting conversation.

 

 

I rub my cheek, which had still been hurting from days ago.

 

"Oh, did you get hurt?" he asked.

 

"Yeah I did this week, but now it got worse." I said, feeling the bruised spot on my face.

 

 

Kyle quickly helped me into a taxi and directed the driver to a location.

 

What was he doing?

 

I knew it was weird for him to stalk and now, it feels like he's trying to kidnap me.

 

 

For a minute, it seemed like it. But then, we stopped the car and took me inside a building.

 

"Kyle where are you taking me? And why are you doing this?" I asked.

 

I didn't fuss in the car ride, I didn't want to make noise.

 

 

He coverd my eyes, before I could say anything else. He cuffed my mouth with his hands.

 

I struggled to talk and move, he had a strong grip on me.

 

I couldn't break lose.

 

 

I feel my body sway, as he took me somewhere it drafty and cold inside.

 

 

My vision becomes clear, as I'm finally able to see. I turn around to a view of the most perfect apartment and New York.

 

It has red wall color and everything was still.

 

 

"Kyle why did you take me
