Chapter 16: Come Back To Me
Last Updated:
2022-03-21 22:25:17The moment my eyes spot him, I freeze in place and Rosalee turns to me and asks, “What’s the matter?” In a worried voice.
Why did he have to be here right now? Couldn’t it have been any other time or day? I know that Rosalee had told me he came by once a week, but still, right now. I mean really. It just happened to be right when we had a close call with a maniac.
I guess it figures. He really is my knight in shining armor and that sort of scares me more than anything Rosalee’s ex-husband could have done to us. And when I realize this, I just want to run far away.
Most women would die for a chance at a real-life knight in shining armor. I on the other hand, feel like I am missing something. Is Destiny out to get me or what?
As Rosalee stands there staring at me, I watch as Sebastian skirts the police tape and then enters. Remarkably, no one stops him and then I see w

“Do you want to tell me why you left me in the middle of the night and didn’t bother to say a word?” He asks me as soon as we get in the car, and he turns it on.I turn my head towards the window and glare out it without saying a thing. The whole time, all I can think of is the fact that he wants me to do things that I refuse to. Knowing this, I must leave before I cave in.Shaking my head, I finally blurt out after a very long few minutes of silence, “Sebastian, I love you and that should be more than enough of an answer.Feeling his fingers on my shoulder, I turn my head to gaze into his eyes quickly before he returns his attention to the road. But what I see there confuses me even more. Does he care about me?“Kaitlyn, I need you. There is just something about you.” He lowers his eyes before becoming quiet for a few seconds. Continuing, he whispers, “When you were gone,

I flat out refuse to come out of my room for the rest of the night, because I figure if he doesn’t want to bother with me, why should I bother with him. Not to mention, he dares to say that I need to think about things. He is the one who must decide whether he really wants me or not. If he does, he can’t expect me to share him, because it goes against everything that I believe in.When I start to work myself up, I murmur under my breath so softly that I don’t think anyone else can hear me say, “If all he was going to do is play with me, why would he even bother?” And then I hear him behind me too late, when a tear escapes from the corner of my eye.Feeling his fingers dig into my shoulder, I wait for him to turn me around, but he doesn’t. Instead, he leans in close and kisses the back of my neck. The warmth of his breath feels good on my skin as I close my eyes and instinctively sink into him.

As he fakes a smile, he sighs and then replies, “I guess then I should get you that plane ticket.” Before he turns and leaves the room.Shocked that it played out this way, I am both heartbroken and relieved. Because I know now that this would have all turned out very badly in the end. Things usually do when it comes to the matters of the heart, and it is only one sided. I had hoped though, that he felt at least something for me, but I guess not.I pack the things from last night and make sure everything is ready for when he returns to the room. While I await his return, I decide that I had better grab a bite to eat before I leave. So, I make my way to the kitchen and discover that he is standing there, drinking a cup of coffee while he stares out the window in deep thought.Had he not purchased the plane ticket? I am confused, especially when he had just said he would. Unless it will be hours before th

When two o’clock rolls around, I stand by the front door pacing. How can I do this? If I let her go now, I may never see her again. But if I don’t follow through with my plans, I will never know if she really loves me or not.Shaking my head in frustration, I weigh my options very carefully. Earlier, I had paused for a moment in weakness. Only to have her come in the kitchen and wonder why I still hadn’t purchased the ticket.Honestly, it threw me off and then I found myself asking the very same question. Why hadn’t I? So, then I hurried out and bought it.This whole time, I knew there was something different about her, but is it that she really loves me? Or is it the fact that she has pulled the wool over my eyes so expertly? I admittedly have been playing a game with her, but now I find myself wondering if she is also doing the same with me?I remember the da

It’s been two weeks now since I left Sebastian’s side, and I can honestly say that there hasn’t been a single day that I didn’t stop to think about him. Even my body aches for him, but I know over time it will gradually ease. Perhaps, if I go out tonight with Lisa, I will drown my sorrows in some good old fashion Vodka and maybe take home a man to stop this deep need that I still feel for him.Lisa is a tall, lanky 20-year-old, with blonde hair and blue eyes. She works at the steel mill in the office, where I am currently working. A few days after I returned from abroad, I saw an add up at the supermarket for help wanted.After calling them and leaving a message, I received a prompt call back and then an interview the very next day. Just shortly afterwards, I started and have been there ever since. Lisa and I became fast friends that day and have been inseparable ever since, especially now that I a

“What are you wearing tonight?” Lisa asks while pulling a muted peach top over her head.I turn to her and stare, because I’m standing in the walk-in closet trying to decide exactly that. Shrugging, I say, “I don’t know yet. Nothing seems right and after today’s strange events, I am left feeling out of sorts.”“Oh. Hey, I forgot to ask if he said any more to you.” Her voice trails off after she says it when she notices her necklace sitting on the table and walks over to get it.“When I caught up to him, Mr. Sandhill gave me a lecture and then they both left. Sebastian told him that we were nothing more than friends. I don’t know how to take that. Do you think he was lying so I wouldn’t get fired?” I ask because the curiosity has been killing me for the last few hours.“I don’t know. It could be, but you know him more th

Knowing full well that I won’t get any sleep tonight, I still try. However, after 3 hours of endless tossing and turning, I finally get back up and grab a cup of coffee. Trying not to disturb Lisa in case she is home already, I tip toe to the kitchen and quietly make a pot of coffee.The aroma that wafted through the air stirs my sense of smell and fills me with a hunger for more than a drink or two. So, while I wait for it to brew, I open the fridge to sift through the remnants of old pizza boxes and Chinese takeout. I find a small box of teriyaki chicken and decide to inspect it closer. “Hm. Still smells good.” I mutter under my breath after I raise it to my nose and sniff it.However, when I scoop out a bite and eat it, I grimace before spitting it out into the trash as I quickly rush over to it. “How horrible.” I think to myself because the chicken no longer tasted good. Then, just

“Why were you late Kaitlyn?” Mr. Sandhill asks with a wary look on his face and then looks up from me when Sebastian enters, and the door slams shut behind me.“That’s my fault. Sorry.” He states quickly and then sighs.He walks past me and then Mr. Sandhill turns and rushes to catch up with him. As I watch the two of them walk into Mr. Sandhill’s office, I wonder what they will be talking about today? Does it really matter?Taking in a deep breath, I walk to my desk and then see Lisa staring at me. She whispers, “What was that about? I noticed you didn’t come in right away.”Shaking my head, I remark softly, “He asked me to leave with him for good. I told him no and I don’t think he appreciated it.”Lisa’s eyes upon hearing that, grow wider than saucers and then she jumps out of her seat to stand next to me. “You did

“What are you doing baby?” He asks as I set up the monitors, and then glance up at him.“I need to have everything just right before she comes. After all, it isn’t every day you have your first one.” I swallow hard and hesitate before admitting, “I am worried that I will be a bad mom.” As I say it softly and refuse to look up at him.He reaches for my chin and cups it with his finger and thumb as he forces me to stare up into his eyes. “Baby, you could never be a bad mom. You are such a good person and who else would have prepared so well for their first born. I mean look around this room. She will have anything and everything she ever needs at her beck and call.” He says before leaning down and kissing me softly on my lips.As he raises his head, he says to me, “I love you and no matter what, she will too.” He touches the tip of my nose with his index finger as he sa
A Day To Remember Chapter 37: A Day To Remember
Hearing the music of my favorite song, I glance over to Sebastian who takes my hand and then we begin to dance. The moment everyone sees us, they walk off the floor and watch us in admiration. The two of us circle around, like we have been dancing together for years hand in hand. Matter of fact, the way we dance reminds me of two well oiled gears that fit perfectly in place and always move in time. If one gets gummed up or the timing is off, the whole machine stops working.I learned this a long time ago when my mom used to work at a clock shop. One day when I was very young, she had me into the shop. As she did her job, she taught me a think or two about gears and how they had to be well lubricated to function well.“Baby, you seem in a far-off place.” He says to me and brings me back to the present.“Oh, nothing. I was just remembering my mom when I was little, used to take me to the shop with h
A Day To Remember Chapter 36: It Comes So Quickly
It’s Wednesday morning and the sun is shining bright outside the kitchen window. As we eat breakfast, I find myself smiling just as brightly when Sebastian turns to kiss me sweetly on the lips. “Baby, I know I can’t see you right before the wedding, but you look beautiful anyways. I bet that you will look like an angel when you walk down the aisle this afternoon.” He says to me, right before my phone rings.I look down and see that it’s Sebastian’s idiot guy friend Ron and he is calling yet again. Handing the phone to Sebastian, I put away the leftovers and throw the dirty dishes into the sink to rinse for a while until the housekeeper gets there.“Hey Ron, is everything ready to go? Did you pay the minister and make sure everything is good?” He pauses to listen to Ron’s answer and then he is silent for a minute.He turns to look at me and make sure I am not listening befor
A Day To Remember Chapter 35: I'm Positive
Disguising my trip to the doctors as a girl’s day out with Lisa and Skye, I head out to my first appointment in hopes of finding out if I am pregnant or not. Of course, Sebastian doesn’t question me one way or the other, he just rolls his eyes and goes back to reading in his den when I tell him about my plans. “By the way, I already have plans for today.”“Alright. I will be sitting here reading when you return.” He hesitates and then says softer now, “By the way, don’t forget to pick up some mints in case you start to get queasy again. My mom used to swear by them whenever I had a stomachache.”Smiling, I head on out and drive to the doctor’s office. As it turns out, it is on the far end of town. That I didn’t know until I was almost late.Rushing into the office, I was quickly seated in a room and then the doctor walks in. “Hello.” She
A Day To Remember Chapter 34: So Many Things To Do
“Lisa. Can you come here?” I ask quickly because I need help holding up four boxes that are about to topple.When I went into the closet to get my dress shoes, I may have bit off more than I can chew before grabbing the stool. What I should have done was to get Sebastian’s help, but that would have been admitting that I can’t do it myself. I am too stubborn for that, and it will be the death of me.She rushes over and puts her hand up, just as the boxes start to topple to the floor. Not realizing it, I fall into her, and we both end up on our butts. Laughing, Sebastian finds us lying there and then comments, “If I knew that you were into girls, I would have offered to watch earlier.” Then he smiles and laughs whole heartedly before picking me up and offering a hand to Lisa.“What have the two of you been doing?” He asks with a questioning look on his face.Looking me
A Day To Remember Chapter 33: What Can It Be?
“Don’t touch!” He yells at me and then swats my hand away when I try to cheat and see what’s in the package.“You just can’t leave it alone, can you?” I watch him hide the box behind his back while grinning in my face intentionally.“Come on. You left it set there all day. Now that I want to open it, you are trying to hide it from me?” I can’t help but to play along, especially when he is being so cute.That man of mine left me a present sitting on top of the counter all morning. When I went to go over and inspect it further, he swats me. He swats me of all things. “Can you imagine that?” I murmur under my breath when as I roll my eyes.“Hm?” He asks with his brows furrowed and his hands now behind his back.He is holding the one thing that I want more than anything right now. “Ugh. You are impossible!&rdqu
A Day To Remember Chapter 32: Making A New Friend
After getting through the rest of the night without scandal, I call Rosalee first thing after breakfast so Lisa can meet her. This being her only day off, I figured we could take them all out to lunch. “So, would you like to come to lunch with us?” I ask because this is one of the best ways to break the ice.“Sure, but my niece is staying with me for a few days. Do you mind if she comes too?” She asks cheerfully, so I look between Lisa and Sebastian, incase they had a problem with it.They both shrug and shake their head, and then I answer, “That sounds good to me. I can always use a new friend or two or three.” Before I hear her talking to someone in the room with her.Smiling now, I ask, “Can we meet up at the Lilly in, say an hour?” I hesitate while I look down at my watch.“No problem, we will be there. Thanks, by the way. It will make Skye’s day.&rdq
A Day To Remember Chapter 31: The Club
“You look gorgeous my dear.” Sebastian says with a twinkle in his eyes as he looks me up and down.Licking his lips like a wolf thinking of eating his prey, he begins to pace when Lisa takes too long to get ready.“We need to get this show on the road.” He states when he looks up from his watch with a furrowed brow.He doesn’t like waiting around and certainly not because Lisa can’t decide which dress to wear. I am just glad that we can wear the same size dresses. She didn’t bring anything appropriate for a club with her and I didn’t think to tell her to bring anything either. My bad, I knew that I should have told her that we would probably go at some point in time.When Lisa walks out of the closet, Sebastian and I glance at each other in shock. She is more beautiful than I have ever seen her before. I guess that baby blue, skintight thigh high little thing, does her jus
