I Guess I'm In Love With You || (sketchXreader)

Chapter 36

(Y/n)'s POV

I loved watching from my favourite spot whenever I was at home. 
It was my secret place. A place where I can keep my troubles off my mind and relax in the spectacular view of the busy city of London. 
It was hidden carefully behind giant trees, so no one would suspect anything.

The darker the night goes, the brighter the city gets. 
The buildings' lights twinkling like stars.
I just loved this place.

"Hey, I figured you'd be here," A voice interrupted.

I turned around and he was back. I didn't say anything but continue to face the city.

"Listen Y/n, I know it was unfair I left you and ran off somewhere else, I thought I could start a life there and forget everything, but Y/n, I realized I can't be anywhere without you," Paul said.

"Paul. We've dated for 4 years at that time, and all you did was push me away. You didn't say anything to me, but I was here for you Paul. And you only tell me now, that you've realized it," I replied, holding back my tears. "You never called, not even once,"

"I told you Y/n. I'm sorry I pushed you away, but right now, I'm telling you, I'm sorry for not realizing enough you were always there. But you should know... I love you."

His eyes were filled with tears, his eyes shimmered from the lights. 
I was so caught up staring, I didn't realize his lips were on mine.

It took a moment to realize what was going on. His hand cupping my cheek, the other had my waist. 

No this is wrong... This was so wrong...

Then I see a shadow through the trees. Someone was there.

I immediately pushed him off of me, taking a few steps back.

"Dude! What the fuck do you think you're doing?!" I yelled, literally getting my nerves up. 

"I thought you wanted to-"

"NO! Paul! I told you! We've talked about this! We're done!! I am in love with someone else, and he is way better of a man than you! So please for the last time- LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!"

I stormed off and ran back to my house. Tears filled my eyes, what if the shadow had been a person, and I knew them?? My life would've been over.

I wipe my tears and enter the house.

"I'm home," I called out, and took off my coat onto the coat-hanger. I looked up, and my jaw dropped.

"Elijah? W-What are you doing here?" I asked nervously.

But he didn't answer. His expression seemed upset, almost as if he was disappointed.

Unless...

He was the one who saw.
