Six Months to Fall Chapter 19: Not Quite Official
They had both finished breakfast, and Amy attempted to stand.“Where are you going?” Zach asked.She paused and looked at her plate, then at him.“I’m done eating. I’m going back to my room.”“What makes you think I’ll let you walk?”“Zach, you can’t keep taking me everywhere I want to go.”“Did you ask, and did I say no?”“I’ll manage.”Amy attempted to walk away, but Zach quickly stood and caught her wrist.“First, you’re not walking. And second, I made a new room for you downstairs.”Amy stared at him.Maybe he was joking.Where could he have possibly made a room for her? There were no rooms downstairs.Well, except…“In my wing,” Zach interrupted her thoughts.Her eyes widened.“In your wing?” she exclaimed.“I have several rooms there. I prepared one for you myself.”He felt strangely proud of himself.“I’m not staying in your wing.”“Why not?”“That’s like going to a man’s house to sleep. Or moving in with him.”“And what’s wrong with that?” Zach asked, his brows narrowing in co

“…we’re at the hospital.”“What?!”Zach shot up from the chair and headed straight for his room.“Which hospital?” he asked, grabbing his keys.“I’ll send you the address now.”The call ended.A few seconds later, his phone chimed. The address had been sent from Amy’s phone.He rushed out of the house, got into his car, and drove as fast as he could without putting anyone else in danger.Thirty minutes later, he arrived at the hospital.He hurried to the reception desk.“Amelia Carter. Where is she?”“Hold on, sir. Let me check.”The receptionist typed something into the computer while Zach paced impatiently.“Come this way, sir.”He followed her down the hallway and stopped when he saw Gabby sitting outside a room, crying.“Amelia’s friend?” he asked.Gabby lifted her face. Her eyes were red, tears still running down her cheeks.“Zach. I’m Gabby.”“What happened?”“It was my fault.” Her voice broke as she wiped her tears. “She was trying to cross the road to get to her cab, and I was
Six Months to Fall Chapter 17: Before the Crash
It was morning, and Amy’s eyes were wide open.She had barely gotten a wink of sleep. Every time she closed her eyes, she remembered last night.She could still feel Zach’s arms around her waist, smell the strong scent of his cologne, and feel his lips on hers.It replayed in her mind over and over again, even though she was no longer in the kitchen with him. She was lying in her bed, staring at the ceiling.Her phone chimed.She reached for it and checked the screen.A message.Breakfast is ready.It was from Zach.How did he get my contact? she wondered, sitting up.This family and their mysterious acts.She rolled her eyes and tossed the phone aside.It chimed again.Then again.And again.“What is wrong with this man?”She picked it up.I know you’re awake.Another message appeared.Coming down?Then another.I’m not gonna stop.“Fine!”She gave in.When Amy finally made her way downstairs, a whole feast had been set on the dining table.Zach stood beside it, pacing as though he h
Six Months to Fall Chapter 16: The Kiss
Ten songs and six shots in, Gabby and Amy sat at the bar of the club.Their karaoke night had been a success, and they were both a little above tipsy. Gabby was more stable than Amy, who was already light-headed.“Gabby, why is Zach so nice to me lately?” she asked as Gabby struggled to help her sit properly.“I don’t know, Amy. You tell me.”“Today, when Jacob hugged me…”“Jacob hugged you?” Gabby exclaimed excitedly.“Shhhhh.” Amy silenced her before continuing. “Zach was staring at me funny.”Her eyes began to close as she spoke. She reached for another shot.“Amy, stop drinking that. You’re drunk already.”Amy paid no attention and took another sip.Gabby quickly snatched the drink from her hand and kept it far out of reach.Amy tried to reach for it but almost fell. Thankfully, Gabby caught her before she hit the floor.Then Gabby’s phone lit up.“It’s time to go. Come on, the cab is outside,” she said, lifting Amy and placing her arm over her shoulder.They made their way outsid

Hours passed, and the two didn’t even notice until it started getting dark.Amy leaned back on her elbows and looked out at the ocean.“I wish I could stay here forever. It’s so peaceful.”“Me too,” Jacob replied. “But I’d only want to be here if you were too.”She turned and smiled at him.“Easy. Just bring me along whenever you want to come here.”After looking back at the ocean for a few more seconds, she stood up and stretched out her hand to him. He took it and stood up.They both folded the blanket, packed the basket, and headed for the car.On their way back, Amy was lost in the stars outside the window.Meanwhile, Jacob was lost in his thoughts.How can I make it obvious that I like her? It seems like she’s really friend-zoned me.He turned to look at her for a moment before turning his eyes back to the road.Everything romantic I say or do, she sees as a friend gesture.He let out a heavy sigh without realizing it.“Everything okay?” Amy asked, drawn back by his sigh.“Yes, o

“You’re here.”Zach entered the kitchen a little past midnight and found Amy there too, taking a glass of water.“Yes, I’m here,” she replied.“Why are you up so late?” he asked.“I couldn’t sleep, despite being exhausted from the cleaning today,” Amy responded.Her eyes looked like they hadn’t been closed in decades. With a hint of concern in his voice, Zach asked,“Why? What happened?”“I don’t know. Maybe I’ve just been thinking a lot.”She gulped down the water and placed the glass on the counter.“What’s on your mind?”Zach took another glass and poured himself some water.“Zach, did you get me those novels?”He paused.“Uhm…” He took a sip. “Yes, I did.”He looked at her.“Didn’t you like them?”He stared at her, suddenly afraid of her answer.“No…”She paused.The pause almost made a grown man stop breathing.“I’m sorry. You said you were on your last book and almost done, so I just thought it would be nice to have fresh ones ready before you finished…”“No, Zach. I loved them.
