"Stop the alarm Amy,"My hand somehow went to my back and landed on the body lying beside me. But that body didn't bothered moving and remained still. I grunted under my breath, taking her name once again. Finally there was a shuffle beside me and the annoying sound of alarm stopped.My eyes were still closed and sleep was about to hit me once again when Amy shook my body aggressively, completely catching me off guard. I wiped the sleep left in my eyes and looked at her. As usual, her hair was a mess first thing in the morning."What the hell bro?" I asked the reason for her being this violent first thing in the morning."Come on wake up. It's 7 in the morning. We need to get ready cause we have stuff to deal with Layla," She reminded me as she removed covers from herself. I was about to ignore her when she suddenly pulled covers away from me and nagged like a mother."Come on sweetie don't behave like a child. You are big girl with big responsibilities,"I seriously got irritated and
•NOAH'S POV:I looked over my watch and it was telling me the time of my faith and how everything depends on my acting skills which I'm not so sure about, 8'O clock. And once again I've reached earlier as usual.I then looked back to the company building standing tall above me. On the building it was written "TY Projects" in the centre. What a dumb name to be honest just like the dumb owner. Why TY though? It could have been T or something if he's using his initials. But TY doesn't make any sense. Like it stands for Thankyou and not Tyler.I guess I could have wasted my whole time standing there, looking at the building and debating on its useless name but I didn't. I decided to walk through the company's gate and went straight to the reception. What's the reason for judging his company's name when I'm going to destroy it anyway."Noah," I told my name to the receptionist as soon as I reached it. She smiled at me and bowed."Welcome Sir. This way please," She requested me to follow he
•LAYLA'S POV:I walked around the kitchen and finally reached the refrigerator. I wasn't thirsty at the moment but I had to pretend that I was. I looked over Amy's shoulder towards the library room which was opened. Okay the coast is clear.We were here in none other than Aiden's house. Back to another meeting because Noah said it's urgent. We are a bit early because it's 10:45 am. We are 15 minutes early I guess but to be honest that's what I wanted. To reach here early in order to carry out my plan successfully."Amy can you do me a favor?" I asked as soon as she was about to sit on the stool."Say the magic word,"I rolled my eyes at her this childness. This was so filmy. More like Celine's type but I guess I had to do it in order to actually help her out."Fine. Please," I said with puppy eyes and pouting my lips."Ok you win. What's up?" She replied raising her hand in defeat.Good. She's not aware of the fact that she actually got trapped in my trap. But I did say the magic word
We were standing there and looking at each other like our lives depended on each other. Her lips parted away. I felt like that this was the moment she's going to run away. There was so much in her eyes right now but that's what she always did. I saw the way her throat worked, how she gulped slowly until a voice finally came out of it."Is there something wrong with it?" She once again gulped nervously and continued "Can't I praise you or give you a compliment?" She innocently asked.Amy didn't moved away or snapped back at me and that was weird of her. As well as the things she said on the phone and the soft tone she is using now. Everything about her was surprising me today. But that was in a good way as well because things were finally starting to look good between us."Have you ever complimented me before?" I narrowed my eyes and asked a question even though I was aware of the answer but I guess she wasn't."Things change. People change and I guess I'm changing as well," Her voice
I didn't bother looking back. Now I was all alone in this library, surrounded by books and much more darkness. This isn't how I expected things to be but I guess that's how things are going to be for a while even if I don't want them to be like that. I was helpless and I wasn't liking it.I shutted my eyes for a moment and tried to absorb the conversation we had. I needed to once again pretend that nothing had happened between us. I need to get out of this room and think that the conversation between us didn't effected me. I had to pretend and once again , I was just so done by this pretending.Everything was so clustered in my mind and heart that it was getting heavy. You know the feeling when something worse happens to you and you are not yourself anymore. You heart is heavy and you feel like there is something stuck in your throat and it hurts but you can't do anything about it. And that was exactly how I was feeling.The only person I ever wished could become mine, wanted to be no
•LAYLA'S POV:I kept looking back and forth from my watch to the door again and again. I gulped down another sip of water from the glass. It was my third glass of water because I was so nervous that I kept pouring more water into my empty glass. Where the hell were they even?Were they making some kind of Atom bomb that none of them is back yet. It's been 15 minutes since I requested Amy to go to the library and none of them is back yet. I would just barge in right now but I'm holding myself back from doing that. Others would be here soon and that would make the situation much more worse.All kind of threatening thoughts were going through my mind. What if I'm the one who messed things up? What if everything goes wrong? It's definitely going to fire me back. But I was doing something good wasn't I. I got my lesson from what happened to me and my lack of confidence in love life. But I can't let Amy go through this again.First time, her pain was enough to give her a deep wound for year
"Good morning." Charlie also arrived as Noah and Celine were busy chatting. I looked at him and greeted him back."Woah Charlie you look busy," I refered to the loads of file in his hand."Oh, these are the personal details for the security we handled today." He said and placed those binder on the coffee table in the living room and made his way towards the table.I was confused when Charlie mentioned "Personal detail of security" because this was something I didn't knew about. Noah might have read that confusion on my face that's why he cleared the misunderstanding."Don't worry, I'll tell you everything about this stuff today. This is the purpose of today's meeting. You'll know soon," He informed me and I nodded."Come here Charlie. Let me give you the biggest news of the year,""Hey don't spread the news further," Celine suggested."It's okay. Charlie is one of us. But Charlie please let this stay between our group okay?"He agreed by nodding."But what's the news?" He eagerly aske
Noah was refusing to go to the hospital or seeing a doctor as Amy suggested he should. All of a sudden his condition became like he was about to faint but he was just too stubborn to accept this fact and get a check up from the hospital. I couldn't help but step in when he refused Amy as well."But you aren't well Noah," I added agreement to Amy's statement."No please. I'll be fine. This is something more important," Noah stubbornly stated."No it's not Noah. You're health is important first. We can get this done by tomorrow when you are fine," I practically begged him to stop whining.But he rejected us as he shook his head once again in denial and repeated a word again and again which was,"No no no."I sighed at his strong-willness. What was he trying to do? I would have asked him that directly but I knew better that he wasn't in such kind of state. My cloud of thinking bursted up as Celine and Charlie entered into the room. Amy and I both turned around at the same time."Oh my god
