Chapter 29

Tokyo

Kylie's POV

Thankfully there was a plane going to Tokyo. It was the very last plane to Tokyo until Tuesday (3 days from now!). I'm sad that we have to leave Italy in such a rush, I wanted to see so much, but I understand the reasoning for us leaving so soon. I can't believe Brad was up to this. I know he's evil, but this evil, I would have never guessed.

As we aboarded the plane, I kept picturing Nina sitting in one of the seats. Watching. Thinking out her next plan. I pushed on John's back so he would hurry on, which he did. As soon as we got to our row, I scooted around John and sat in the seat closest to the window. I was paranoid, they want me to be. I gripped onto the sides of the seat.

"Hey. I know you're not afraid of heights what's wrong?", I jumped when John touched my knee.

"It's um...", I cleared my throat, "I'm paranoid. I'm scared that they are going to follow us."

"They have no idea we are leaving Italy.", he reassured.

"Yeah. Yeah. They wouldn't stalk us or anything. Right?", I looked at him.

He took his hand off my knee and lifted the arm rest. I scooted in my chair until I was leaning into him. I rested my head on his lap (thankfully there was no 'hard' places).

"I surely doubt they would take it that far. If that's the case, we will just keep flying to other places.", he chuckled.

"That actually sounds nice. But I would like to stay in one place for more than 3 days, okay?"

"Okay.", he stroked my hair, soothingly.

A tear escaped my eye followed by a stream. The situation scared me. I was in love with a crazy weirdo. Thankfully John couldn't see the tears.

Brad's POV

Italy

A few hours later, I finally arrived in Italy. I got a taxi and told him the address of the hotel. I memorized it perfectly. He dropped me off and I went inside. It was night time and everyone was asleep except for the worker working the counter. There was no point in checking in when I can just room with Nina.

I checked my phone to make sure I was going to the right room. Room 58. I knocked on the door a few times. She slowly opened the door. She was wearing a red robe and pink slippers. Her hair was in a messy bun, but it fit her well. She pulled that off with her long hair.

"Hey, you weren't kidding when you said you'd get here quickly.", she sleepily chuckled.

I walked in, "Yeah. We can't waste time, but I'm jet lagged.", I set my suitcase beside the door.

"You can sleep on the bed, I can sleep on the couch if you want.", I was honestly shocked, I swear she hated me.

"Uh..no one has to sleep on the couch.", I said. I kinda owe it to her, she's done all this stuff for me. I treat her like crap so she'd get the job done, but that doesn't mean I should always be a jerk.

"It's 11:00pm. Can we just go to bed, please?", she yawned and headed to the bed.

"Yeah. Yeah.", I slipped out of my cloths, leaving my boxers and socks and that's it. She took off her robe. She was wearing a baggy t-shirt and leggings. Then she slipped her slippers off.

She slid into bed and I slid into the other side. It wasn't awkward because she started falling back asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. Also, it's not like we have feelings for eachother and have sex. We were literally sleeping together. I wish I could fall asleep that quick. My mind was racing, and not just about John and Kylie. I was thinking about Nina too. Why is she still here if I treat her like crap? Kylie took it in, but then she went to John in the end. Even though me and Nina aren't dating, she stays. Why? I turned to my side so I was facing her. Her breath was slow, but I don't think she was in a deep sleep yet.

"Nina?", I whispered.

"Yeah", she said, groggy.

"Why do you stay? Here? And listen to me?"

"I have........no life.", she mumbled.

I couldn't help but laugh.

"Seriously?"

"No.", she said.

"Then why?"

"Inside. Deep. Deep. Inside. I think..", she paused, "there is some good in you. I understand what it feels like getting", another pause, "getting your heart broke and then wanting revenge, but life sucks. Trust me, I was like you in my old relationship, I was the..ass..."

And that was it, out like a light. I didn't sleep that night, I replayed that last thing she said over and over and over. Is that why she's here? Because she understands? And she believes in me? A part of me wished it was, in fact truth, the other part did not. She was trying say something, like: shit happens. Basically. She was also saying that I was the ass when me and Kylie dated. I kinda figured that(from Kylies judgments), but hearing it outloud coming from a friend hurt. Maybe she's right, I shouldn't chase after Kylie. If she doesn't want me, then so be it.

Shit Happens.
