I feel like it has been a million years since I last saw her. I'm seeing Sofia for the first time in more than a year and I wished the circumstances were different but it's not.
I gave her what she wanted, stayed away and went to college outside the country like I wanted even though my plans changed when I found her.I had pictured seeing her again a million times in my head but I never expected it to be this way.Her Grandfather just died and I knew I had to be here, if not for her, for me also because I also knew and loved him.I drove with my sister and father to the funeral in Malibu.I have been in shambles the whole drive, wondering what will happen if I see Sofia. What if she doesn't want me there, I questioned myself over and over again.Finally I see her, I'm standin

Sofia's POVI stood outside Noah's room at the resort. I'd tried to calm myself down on the walk over so that I could present all my points rationally to him, but instead, I'd just gotten more worked up. He is suddenly here after years of no contact and is acting like everything is okay.He sent me flowers today asking me to join him for breakfast tomorrow and yesterday he sent me chocolates and flowers and the day before that he just showed up at my house.I am extremely in a messed up place right, I don't need this, I don't need him here right now.Why was he doing this to me? Part of me wondered if I should be at his door if I should be banging on his door.The door was closed, but I could see the light on beneath the door. I knocked and bounced my hip impatiently while I waited for him to respond."It's open."I turned the knob and stepp

Sofia's POVI was avoiding everyone, especially Noah. I haven't seen him since last night and honestly I wasn't planning on seeing him even though I do want to see him but I keep telling myself I don't.My only goal tonight was to get drunk and finally find my way home and pass out. I was already halfway there, having downed three margaritas. When I noticed Noah at the bar, it was a bar at the resort.He saw me too, he was talking with a few other men, but every time he'd glance in my direction, I felt like we were the only two people in the room which absolutely insane because I feel nothing for him, I'm obviously just sex hangover from last night. Every now he would smile at me and I'd pretend I didn't see him even though my eyes were glued to him.I chose to stop paying attention to him. It ma

Sofia's POVThe buzzing of an alarm woke me, and I quickly shuffled around to turn it off before it woke Noah, who slept soundlessly beside me. After finally hitting snooze, I lay back down and stared at the ceiling with his legs still intertwined with mine and a smile on my face exhausted, sleep deprived, but smiling.I do not smile in the morning normally. I'm not a morning person I'm usually groggy."Why are you smiling, baby?" Noah whispered, his voice sleepy and tired.Glancing over at him, I saw his eyes were still closed as he lay on his side, facing me. The room was still dark this early in the morning, with little moonlit morning sky."How did you know I was smiling?""I can feel it."Turning on my side to face him, I ran my thumb across his lashes. "Because I'm happy."He exhaled before the corners of his lips turned up. He was the one who made
