Chapter 46

*sorry if its quite rushed*

Jimmy;

I opened my eyes to see my hotel room's white ceiling. I let out a groan as my head throbbed. What time is it?

I reached for my phone and checked the time, 8:45 am. I nodded as I got up on my feet, letting the cold air embrace me as I left the protection of the duvets. As I walked to the bathroom, I passed by the table that had two velvet containers. I smiled as I carefully set it aside, I hope she'll like it.

Then it hit me, I forgot to call her last night!

"Shit!" I exclaimed as I rushed to grab my phone, Its 11 am in New York, she must be awake. I dialed her number and put it against my ear, waiting for her to pick-up. It rung for a few moments before finally, she answered.

"Hello?" I asked as I sat on the bed, "Sarah?"

"Jimmy.." Her voice sounding so soft, so brittle, like it was going to break any moment.

"What's wrong?" I asked as I more worried and concerned. "What happened?"

"Tell me nothing happened." She whispered, I could tell that she was trying her best to keep herself together.

What is she talking about? What happened? What happened last night?

"Happened where?" I asked, sounding desperate to know what the hell she was talking about it.

"Let's just talk about this when you get back." Gosh, she sounded so weak. I hope everything is okay. But I also know that I shouldn't push her to say anything at the moment.

"O-okay." I told her as I swallowed the lump in my throat, "I'll see you in a few days."

"Yeah," Was all she said.

"Sarah?"

"Yea?"

"I love you."

And there was a long moment of silence, and I felt my heart-break every second that passed.

"I love you too."

And then she dropped the call. I tossed my phone beside me and stared at the blank tv screen, What did I do wrong?

I thought about it hard, was it because I forgot to call her last night?

I let out a sigh as I reached for the remote before switching the TV on.

As I was skimming through, I heard my name on one of them channels. I went back and landed on some Entertainment channel.

My heart practically stopped when I saw the headline,

JIMMY FALLON DONE WITH GIRLFRIEND? SEEN GETTING CLOSE WITH A GIRL AT A BAR IN LA LAST NIGHT.

I looked at the picture and it was me and Anne, from the jewelry company, the one gave me the necklace... Oh my God.

I felt my eyes water as I thought about Sarah and what she must be feeling right now.

I switched it off and fell back down on the bed, "You stupid asshole."

I shook my head as I mentally kicked myself again and again. I need to go home.
