My Photographer (Diggy Simmons)

"Berlin!? As in Berlin Germany!?" He asked lifting off of me sitting on the edge of the bed. I grew nervous.

"Ye-Yea" I stuttered.

"Wow!... wow! " was all he could say as he looked at me then back out of his window at the little traffic that came through the gated community.

I just sat there,I didn't know what to say. His body language was more than obvious that he didn't want to feel my touch at that moment so I put that thought in the back of my head.

I couldn't try to make him forget about it with sex because, duh I'm a freaking virgin!

"Daniel" I said to him but he didn't budge.

I exhaled heavily as I began to catch an attitude myself.

"You know what fine, you won't speak neither will I " I said scooting back against his ginormic headboard crossing my arms across my chest pouting like a five year old.

He pulled his phone out typing something. Me being who I was, I tried peeking but I was too far to see.

He then tossed his phone across the bed to me. I picked it up looking at it.

"3thousand, 9hundred 60five miles Alexis!" He said using my full name.

He had googled the mileage from New York to Berlin.

"Daniel what do you want me to do, stay? Because if that's the case then I'm sorry, I can't! "

"You don't have to, I'm good! " he snapped. (I can't lie, ya girl was too salty when he said that).

"So, I'll just see you when I get back then I guess " I said softly as I got up and began to put my boots back on.

"I don't think so."

"You don't think so what?"

"You will be seeing me when you get back. I just need some time to think"

My heart dropped down to the pit of my stomach! My feelings were so hurt, only a month into our relationship and he's needing space!?

I masked my emotions once again. I didn't respond to him. While walking to the door I stopped in front of him as he looked up at me with those glossy eyes.

Bending down to his level I kissed his perfect peach lips and walked out his room door.

"Well I guess I'll see you around then " I said as my voice cracked.

Making my way to the exit I finally let out my frustration. I can't lie I did cry-more like weep while on the elevator...

The next morning I got up and got business handled. Trying to forget about the senseless and un-caused for argument that led to me and Daniels "breakup" I went to the gym.

He was so selfish! He reminded me of the jerk that I met a few months back! He's such a LOSER! I get one of the biggest deals so far and he doesn't even acknowledge that! Screw him!

Once I made it home I got into a hot shower. After getting out I packed all of my necessities for this three thousand nine hundred sixtyfive mile trip, a day and a wake-up and it was wheels up. Berlin here I come!

A day and a wake-up later...

I woke up at five in the morning preparing for my flight. I made sure I packed my cameras and lenses safely.

Even though my flight wasn't scheduled to leave for another three hours, traffic in NewYork was heavy in the early mornings. Either people were getting off of the night shifts or people were heading to their morning shifts. Early bird gets the worm is what I called NewYork traffic.

As I was getting ready to leave out my phone rang. It was my mom!

"Hello" I answered as I waited for the elevator to come.

"Hey peek " she screeched through the earpiece.

"Hi Mom "

"I was just calling to wish you good luck and tell you how proud I am of you."

"Awww. Thanks mom I appreciate it "

"You're welcome hunny, so do you have your passport, and ID? You know you can't get there without it. Oh and please be sure to keep your luggage together, don't want it to come up missing "

"Yes mom, I have everyt-" "oh and don't talk to strangers you know those people can be really scary at times and please be safe!"

I grew annoyed. She was always overprotective of me. Don't get me wrong I love my mom, but she can sometimes be a pain.

"Mom I got it! " I said as the elevator finally came. I grabbed my luggage struggling to get them on the elevator because only one hand was occupied.

"Mom look I'll call you when I land ok love you bye!" I said hanging up.

my favorite door man skimp help me put my luggage in the cab.

"Thanks again skimp you're the best!!" I said positioning myself in my seat.

"No problem hunny! Want me to rude with you?" He asked.

"No your working! "

"Not anymore, I was just about to leave before I saw you struggling with your bags."

"But how will you-" "I'll catch a cab hunny scoot over! " he said shoving me a bit as he closed the door.

"Driver hunny get us there on time please!" He said being his normal flamboyant self.

"So, where's that fiiine caramel drop man of yours? " he asked putting his attention on me.

Him bringing Daniel up just made me think about two nights ago. I was still indeed hurt. Just thinking about that night saddens me. I miss him, I miss us!

I tried to tell myself that he was just speaking out of anger and we'd be back right before I left but, judging from not seeing his name pop up on my phone since that day, it was obvious that we were done.

I miss him! It's hard going from talking to each other every day, texting each other every day and seeing each other everyday to not doing any of those things.

I lost a good friend, someone who I could have possibly loved in the near future and so did he. He lost a damn good woman!

I mean how many women in their early twenties can honestly say they're still a virgin! ? Not many these days.

"Helloooo! Earth to Alexis hunny! " Skimp said taking me out of my thoughts.

"What, huh "

"Are you ok? I said where's ya man girl! "

"Oh! He's... he's on a business trip." I lied. Skimp was cool but not that cool to where I would tell him about my relationship problems.

"Awwww, too bad you could have got you some before you took flight. "

Oh lawd why did I let him get in this car with me! ?
