Love Next Door Plot Novels & Stories

And as the car disappeared into the night, one certainty settled in with cold clarity: The next time the League tried to get close to me, they wouldn’t use trust. They would use war. Michelle’s POV Watching the Bentley disappear down the street felt like watching the last piece of my life tear itself loose. The taillights vanished into the city, swallowed by motion and distance, and with them went the man I was never supposed to fall in love with. John finally knows, I thought bitterly. Of course he does.

Later-that-night Dex walks to the front door as a knock is heard, and I lift my head from the couch where I was sitting with Kate. He starts talking to someone, and I glance at Ken for answers. He looks from the front door with the people to look at me with a serious look. "Well, I would say that the wedding will be perfect tomorrow, Mrs. Wilson," I hear Kate say. I look at her as she stands up. "We are done?" She looks at me with a smile.

He shook his head, doubting that the person at the door would be Kris. "Hold on, I need to see who is knocking on my door" he said. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ The phone line was still on, when Allen walked to the door. He opened it to see Kris standing there. "You've got to be kidding me" he said, ending the call. Allen put the phone back in his pocket, and fixed his eyes on Kris. She hasn't changed a bit. She still looked like she was, the first day he had met her. Allen couldn't deny that he still felt something for her, but it was not love. It was pity, Maybe? or was it hate? Was it because their relationship didn't end with any of them ending it properly?

Joy asked curiously, and Leslie rolled her eyes. “I have not been able to cement that, thanks to your loud chewing!” Leslie snapped back at her friend. “Sorry,” Joy muttered audibly. Leslie clicked her tongue in annoyance and then stood up, pacing around. “But I am not worried, because I have a very good plan brewing in my head and I can’t wait for the dance this weekend,” she said with a sinister smile on her lips. “Amanda told me that Rory and Todd are getting close… but they have no idea what is coming their way. I will make sure Rory runs away from Todd and I will make sure that she is humiliated so bad, that she changes schools or better still, moves away from town.”
