Chapter 1

It’s a Tuesday morning, and I’m working from my favorite spot. A coffee shop around the corner from my apartment, Joe’s Cafe. This is where I get most of my work done when I am not in the office. As I start getting lost in a manuscript, he walks in. Have you ever seen someone and instantly felt this connection, almost like you have met before? Someone whose energy draws you in? It happened to me today, with him. Joe’s is where I escape into my work. I go there with my laptop and work on most days that I work from home, and most weekends. I love going there and escaping into my writing. To get lost in the manuscripts and to sip on espresso. I find it soothing to be able to watch people and get my work done. I get inspiration there. Whether I am reading a manuscript or working on my book. I absolutely love going to Joe’s. I found this coffee shop the day after Tyler broke my heart. Coming to Joe’s is a routine.

Chapter 2
I met Emily later that day at the Sips Cafe around the corner from her and Owen’s studio. Although we live together, she has been preparing for her showcase. She is a really talented artist/ photographer, and her work is really amazing. I haven't had a chance to really talk to her much in a few weeks. Her and Owen have been working all day till really late getting ready, so she spends most nights at his place. It’s closer to the studio and just makes sense. I took an Uber to see her. The studio is in Arlington on Mass Ave. So I had them drop me off at the corner of the Cafe. I looked up and saw her walking down the street towards me. I suddenly had this urge to run to her, so I did. I finally reached her. I grabbed her and hugged her. “Oh I have missed you, I feel like it's been forever!” I was almost in tears. “It’s because it has been.” She was my safe place for a long time, and it felt like an eternity since I had last seen her. We have never gone this lo

Chapter 3
The days went on, and there were no more sightings of mystery man. However, I did sort of change up my routine a bit. For the next week I went to Joe’s later, the gym later. By later, I mean at night. I purposely went incognito. He made me feel so good, just by being in his presence. That scared me a bit. I have literally had one boyfriend, and look how that turned out. I have built a wall around myself, and I did not know how to tear it down. By the following Monday I went back to my normal routine. The gym was what I missed the most. Getting in my early workouts really make for a great day. Maybe it was all in my head, but I really did feel like the day was much better with an early morning workout. Emily’s showcase has literally consumed her. I hadn’t really spoken to her outside our text since our lunch. Our daily texts consist of funny memes. I decided to call her and left her a long detailed message about how boring my life has been. And I couldn't wait for

Chapter 4
We took an Uber back to the apartments. Elliot came back to hang out a bit with Owen. I was wiped from the week so I decided I was going to call it a night. All this anxiety came rushing in. I had questions running through my mind. Do I hug him, shake his hand or just get up and say it was nice to meet you? I decided to change, brush my teeth and just stay in my room. I am laying in bed flipping through the channels when I hear a knock at my door. “Sophie, can I come in?” Elliot is opening my door. I sit up in bed and look over. “I just wanted to say goodnight, and see if you were interested in hanging out tomorrow?” He looks so good, I want him to come over and kiss me. But instead I just stare. “Sure, that would be cool.” Wow I held myself together.“Cool, I’ll see you tomorrow. Sleep well.” And he walks out. I am giddy like a little kid. I layed there smiling for what seemed to be an eternity. And then I fell asleep. I woke up surprisingly early the next day, a

Chapter 5
The weekend was great. We had a lot of fun on Saturday. We drank wine and played Scrabble. I won twice and Emily won twice. Elliot stayed till midnight. It was really great and seemed like the effort didn't need to be made, it just felt natural. On Sunday Elliot had to work, Em and Owen went to his apartment and to the studio to clean up from Friday. I nursed my wounds and watched a few of my favorite movies. Practical Magic and Hocus Pocus. I ended up writing a while too. Monday morning rolled around fast. I stopped at Joe’s for a coffee and took an Uber to work. Once I sat down at my desk I dove into the manuscript I was editing. It was due on Wednesday, and I did not have much done. So I decided to buckle down. The morning flew, probably from my coffee intake. By the afternoon I was getting bored. Usually when this happened, I would go for a walk but I can't really do that now. My knee is still really swollen from the fall. So I decided to put my earpods in

The rest of the week went by fast.. I met Emily for lunch on Thursday. She has been staying with Owen a lot, But I convinced her to spend the night on Friday. I wanted to make everyone dinner. So I thought it would be nice if she and Owen stayed at our place that night. Elliot was going to come too, he had to work till about six so I set the time for seven thirty.I worked in the office till about four and took the train home. I wanted to stop at Whole Foods and it was right near the train station so it worked out perfectly. I was about to finish paying and my phone went off. It was a text from Elliot. ELLIOT: Hey baby. I finished work early. Can I come over now? I can’t help but smile. I don’t know how I got this lucky, but i am happy to be happy. ME: Oh, are you missing me? I am just finishing at Whole Foods, I do need to shower before I start cooking, if you aren’t opposed to waiting around, I don't mind. I’ll be there in about 15 minutes. I am smiling from ear

Chapter 7
Finally, Friday arrived. I finished my work by staying up way past my bedtime. Skipped all my shows. Just so today I could be carefree. I had a nail appointment, a wax and I needed to grab a dress at the mall. All my things were close together so I didn't have to rush. We were not leaving till around six tonight, so I had more than enough time to get everything done. I am really excited to spend some girl time with Emily. We agreed we would sneak off on Saturday for Lunch and massages. I could not stop thinking of Elliot. He was so good to me the other night. He is so gentle and caring and rough. I love everything about him. I have to send him a text to let him know I can't stop thinking of him. ME: Good Morning. Just out running errands, and just thought about kicking your ass on the poker table tonight. ELLIOT: It is a great morning. So, you want to make bets? Well here are my terms. If I lose I have my way with you! If you lose, I have my way with yo

Chapter 8
Foxwoods was fantastic. We all came out winners. Well, Elliot broke even. But, Emily and Owen came home with an extra grand. I came home $55,000 richer. I am still in shock and it’s been almost three weeks. Elliot has been staying over a lot. At Least three times a week. We are getting so close. It just feels so good. I don’t want anything to pop our bubble.Last week, I opened up a second bank account for savings and another one for just rent. With Emily bringing more of her stuff to Owen’s I wanted to make sure to put as much of it away as I could to just give myself some breathing room. I know I’ll be able to afford the apartment on my own, but I also wanted to try and save for a down payment on a condo or house. I don’t want to be paying rent forever. I am really trying hard to get this promotion at work. It would help me out so much. Speaking of the promotion, I had three manuscripts due in three days. I Have been working from home for a week, getting Emily pa

Chapter 9
The drive back to the apartment was quiet. I stared out the window and cried. Elliot just rested his hand on my thigh and gently rubbed it. I had flashes through my head of her accident. The way she described it sounded awful. “I would die, if anything ever happened to her. My world would just end.” I couldn't even control myself. I just sobbed like a baby. Elliot pulled over and just grabbed me and hugged me. “It's ok Soph, everything is going to be ok. Baby, I don't like seeing you like this.” His touch felt so good, he just took all the bad energy away when he hugged me. Our eyes met when I was pulling out of his hug and I just started kissing him. Kissing him made everything better. For a moment we were lost in a kiss and I could feel the heat. This was getting intense. “Ok, Ok, let's get home. We only have a few blocks to go babe.” He grabbed my hand and held it the rest of the way. Pulling it close to his mouth and giving little kisses. “Do you have some w

Chapter 10
We got to the hospital about 10 am. Owen had been moved to the same floor as Emily. The staff at hospital thought it would be on better judgment to hold Emily another night too to just keep an eye on her head injury. Owen was sitting up in bed when we got there. Emily was in his room, in a wheelchair. Kathy stayed the night with her, and wheeled her down here before she left. The doctor came in while we were there. They were going to keep him a few days to make sure all went well with surgery. He really busted up his right leg, and had some internal bleeding. So they need to make sure he is ok, before he gets sent to Spaulding for a few weeks for rehab. But, he was alive and that was all that mattered. While we were there Emily got a call from the Police station. The driver of the other vehicle is 100% at fault. They have surveillance video from the stores at the intersection. He Flew through the stop sign, causing the accident. “We will be calling a Lawyer on Mond
