Ending Of Smile 2 Novels & Stories

She also smiled. To be continued...

“Where are you smiling?” A grin forms on my face. “I just remember when I locked you outside,” his eyes narrow before he throws his head back and starts to laugh, “And then stuck the rules out of the door for you to see.” He grins as he looks at me. “Yeah, you were crazy,” my eyes narrow, and a smile forms on his lips, “and I love it.” “I'm glad everything is settled,” I say as I drag my hands down his face. “I just wish it didn't have to end like it did.”

“Ok.” He stares at me for a long moment, then lets me go, and we both return to our seats, both of us leaning back against the cushions. Then he smiles, the grin stretching across his face as each second passes. How can he smile? Nothing about this is smile worthy. “What are you smiling about?” I grumble. “Well,” he says, laughing. “I’m two for two.” “What is that supposed to mean?” I frown.

Not a desperate laugh. A real smile. The kind of smile you give when a chess game finally ends, and your opponent has walked straight into the trap you've set from the very first move.

My smile was the slow and deliberate kind, a slow smile spreading across my face like a sunrise sweeps across the sky. But Jacob had no idea why I smiled; the satisfaction and control I felt surged through my veins. He looked at me, seeking my eyes for an answer, but I simply continued smiling back in amusement with a glint in my eyes, savoring the moment.

Perfect. God. Everything stopped. Elena physically froze. The coffee nearly fell from Adrian's hand. Silence. Then simultaneously: "Did you see that?" God. Both of them looked completely emotionally destroyed instantly. Reasonable honestly. Lily blinked slowly. Then smiled again. God. The second smile physically ended them. Elena burst into tears immediately. Fair. Adrian wasn't much better. Because somehow that tiny smile felt bigger than anything. Bigger than business victories. Bigger than houses.

Then across me. Finally, she smiled. A very small smile. "What exactly is going on here?"
