Leaving Las Vegas Novels & Stories

Even their parting had been rushed, without a proper farewell. … It was Layla who answered the door. Her expression shifted slightly after seeing Dexter—not entirely surprised, yet still caught off guard. She then asked softly, "You're here, huh?" Dexter nodded, replying, "I've come to see Maisie." He took off his coat and hung it in the entryway. Then, after a moment's consideration, he turned to Layla and said, "I'll be leaving for Eboris the day after tomorrow—probably for two years. I'd appreciate it if you could look after Maisie during my absence."

Soon, I hope I won't feel much anymore. We sit for a moment, just watching the sunset in comfortable silence. “I'm sorry I was wrong about my brother,” Jonathan says after a while. “I often am with him. Is he the reason you're leaving?” “A little.” That's the understatement of the year. “But it's also what I should do. It's a good career move for me.” “Well, congratulations. I hope it works out for you.” “Thank you.” I finish off my champagne and set the empty bottle to the side. “And good luck to you in Las Vegas.”

Leaving Liam this time was hard. We were so close now, closer than ever to not have to do this anymore. But I ugly cried in the SUV when it was time to say goodbye. I mean, snot and tears and everything. It was bad. And Liam, who was usually so put together and happy go lucky teared up as well. "It's okay, Kel. I'll be there soon. I've got some loose ends to tie up, but don't worry. I'll be in Vegas before you know it. I promise."

The whole thing is driving me insane. “If you’re lucky, and good with your words, maybe she’ll open up. If not…” She shrugs. “Then you’ll have a long way to go to figure it out. I’d hate to leave knowing you’re going to end up single and alone again.” “Leave?” My head snaps up. “What do you mean, leave?” “ I’m leaving New York. Soon” I blink. “Where are you going? Vegas? Texas? Don’t tell me — Hawaii?”

It was getting dark and I collected Henry back into his stroller and we went back home in silence. Henry was already tired from all his play, Emma and I thinking about the future and what it held for us. I kissed Em goodbye at the door. I handed Henry to Dad once I got inside and went to think of Em's advice. Going to Vegas would mean leaving everything behind and traveling across the country. I would have to leave Em and my support group for motherhood. It would mean taking Henry from all these people who he loved and who adored him. I knew I wanted to be out of town but I had something more tamer in mind like moving to the main city. That was far enough but close enough to go on a weekend.

" Will took the ticket from the table and bestowed it to Din. "Don't worry about it; you'll be back tomorrow morning. It's just a party, and you can drink whenever and whatever you want. It's a place where you'll feel more at ease." "Vegas?" Din examined the ticket in his hand. He considered how nice it would be if he could leave LA for just one night and get drunk in Vegas to get his mind off things. "Say it a little louder." Williams let out a sigh. "Vegas!" Din yelled.

The kind of win most people would celebrate. All I could think about was getting out of Nevada. We pulled back into the estate’s driveway, and I stepped out before the engine even cooled. “I’ll be leaving,” I said, my voice flat. “Something urgent came up back home. I’ll catch the next flight.” Dorothy blinked like I’d slapped her. “Nonsense,” Ryland said with a casual wave. “Someone else can handle it. You’re not leaving today. Tomorrow, maybe. For now—come eat.”

"I'll do whatever it takes. You should do the same" "Let's start with the equipment. I'll get you headphones and gloves" Colton ignored the anger he felt upon hearing those words. He had to ignore it.
