She rolled her eyes as she saw him walking towards her dragging his feet as if they where weighed down. She watched has his laugh met the cold air and she glanced down to the city streets and looked back up. All her life she had been looking for love, and right there in that moment she knew. She knew she loved him. Her lips curled up, but immediately curled down as she thought to herself 'what if he doesn't love me back, or not at all'. She wondered to herself as he finally made it to her." you know I believe your the only person i know that it takes them 5 minutes to walk just one block." she nervously said still shaken by what she had just come to realize.He glanced at her with is piercing green eyes and gave her what she liked to call his trademark smirk, the one that made anyone women in new york week at the knees. He didn't say anything he simply grabbed hold of her hand and pressed his lips to hers. He slowly moved away from her lips. He put his nose to hers and started to whisper something, but shook his head and turned away and started to walk. He felt her let go of his hand. He looked back eyebrows raised he. He took in what a sight she was,she was breathtaking and he couldn't believe at the end of the day he could say that she was his and he was hers. His eyes squinted as he thought he had just seen a tear roll down her cheek.
He walked back to her and wiped her cheek."It's just the wind" she told him quickly trying to think of something. Usually she was quick on her feet, but around him she could barley think of words. He sighed and decided not to protest. She knew he didn't believe her, but he didn't say anything making her fall more in love with him. " Come on we're gonna be late and run out of time before you have to go back to work" he said trying to hail a cab. She worked days as a writer and he worked nights as a bartender. He was once one of the men who never took a footstep outside of his apartment without a tie, but he gave everything up to live his life happy. " You know i could always just come down to the bar with you instead of you trying to fit in a perfect date on my lunch hour". He laughed as he thought how frantic he must look." I know, but in the bar i cant hear or see the little things". He reached for her hand and pulled her into the cab. She smiled as he whispered the address to the driver. "oh come on , just tell me" she said as she undid her cashmere scarf. "Never there's not one possible thing you can do or say for me to tell you where this cab his going". "or where this relationship is going" she mumbled to herself looking out the dirty cab window."What?" he asked reaching for her hand. " Nothing , just thinking out load about what i could say or possibly do to you in this cab" She raised her eyebrows twice and they both broke out into laughter. He reached out and ran his hand through her hair and pushing some of it back that had fallen out of place as she laughed. He traced his finger all the way down her chin and lifted it. " You know I've been thinking .." he said as he was interrupted by the driver."sir we are here". He helped her out of the cab loving the blank expression on her face.
" I thought i knew this city like the back of my hand, but where in God's name have you taken me?". The area was quite, not busy a few people walking here and there, but for the most part it looked as if they weren't in New York anymore. He lead her up a set of steps as she looked desperately for a sign or something that would tell her where she was, but nothing. Her heart stopped as she saw him take out a set of keys and opened the door. She could tell he was nervous as well as she saw the set of keys shake in his hands. He turned to her as the door opened , but was surprisingly met with the sound of her Dior pumps running. He watched as her blonde hair moved side to side as she ran. His heart dropped, he knew it was to fast and cursed himself for doing something so stupid and to surprise her. He had bought a loft for the two of them , but that's not all he had bought and done for her. She didn't get to see the loft, the backyard which was rare for living in the city and the rose petals that lead up the stairs to the bedroom where a note and key where tied to a single thorn with a flowerbud unopened. His shoulders where slumped until he looked up and thought she had come back, but it wasnt her. He sighed and walked into what he would have liked to call it their place.
" Amy you ran!" her friend Rachel yelled. " Shh keep it down". " Oh please this is new york, the pople in the starbucks have probobly seen and heard worse". " Rachel, I dont know what happend one mintue i knew i loved him and the enxt i was running from him, i jut thought that whatever was behind that door my heart couldnt handle." " Wait go back you love him" Her best friend Rachel was shocked, after her last realtionship she swore that she would never fall in love again. She watched as Amy shook her head and looked down at the table as if it was going to tell her what to say. " Rach, I do love him i didnt think i'd ever fal for a guy like Chris or any other man". She looked up and saw the smile on Rachels face. " What?' Amy asked as she wrappred her hands around her tall carmel machiaco. " Everytime you say his name or his name is mentionted her eyes light up and the left side of her lip curls up". " Oh please Rach we are not 26 going on 16". Rachel let out a laugh and licked her chapped lips. " It's true ask either Julie or Sarah they have noticed it too". Both girls grew silient it had recently just become the four of the them, it used to always be the five of them ever since freshman year of college. All city girls with heart of gold and a passion for writing and of course men. katie was missing from the equatuon, but both just took in that moment of silience an dwent on. "yeah, ok right, but speaking of those two where are they , you did tell them what starbucks". After Amy has finished her statement she saw Rachel almost spit out her coffee due to laughter. Both girls where a in a world of giggels, when Amy's cell phone went off she put her finger up trying to stop laughing and trying to get rachel to stop laughing. She read his name on the screen "Chris". Rachel saw her bestfriends face turn white. she knew it must have been Chris, she reached her hand over to Amy's and mouthed 'pick it up'.Rachel hated seeing her friend like this, she knew if that asshole Jake would have never came into thier lives and hurt Amy the way he had that she wouldnt be at starbucks with her, she'd be with chris whereever that may be. She picked up the phone.
He heard her breahting on the other line and knew she probobalby wouldnt say anything, " Thank you for picking up" She heard how hurt he was by the way he was talking." i know your probobally not going to talk back to me, but just please hear me out. What i did today seemed so perfect in my mind becasue i thought i had planned it out to the T, but it was far from perfect it was a trainreck in slow motion and now i'm by myself picking up the pieces, Amy i just thought that we where ready for the next step". Rachel watched as she saw Amy eyes fill up with tears."and..." "Chris just" He was taken back by her saying his name. " Chris i cant do this over the phone , but i need to get back to the office i've got a deadline I'll meet you at your bar around 10". She knew that on the other side of the phone he had began to get his smile back. " i'll see you at ten then doll". Amy looked up the cieling trying to premit the tears from falling. "Amy you are in love with". She shot Rachel a look she was so caught off gaurd from her remark. " If that was any other man you would have never said a word in the conversation you would have simply let him talk and then hang up and probobly that be the end of the realitonship. He's changed you, but in a good way". Amy took in what her best friend was saying and thought it through and she was right. If it was any other man she probobly wouldnt have picked up. She went to respond to Rachel until she saw Rachel waving like impatient child out the window. Amy rolled her eyes as she waved to Julie and Sarah. Rachel sat back down waiting for the girls to join them. "rach, please can we just keep this between us, i just , i dont kno". " Amy I wont say a word". Amy smiled as she knew she could always count on Rachel to support her and be there for her. " Hello lovers" Julie said sitting down next to Amy as Sarah set next to Rachel. " Well its about time you two showed up" Amy and Rachel said in chorus.
