Chapter Twenty-Five

1 Year Later...

Kyle's POV

   "Okay and thank you." I ended the phone call and leant back on the sofa with a huge smile on my face. 

   I had been on the phone to First Choice and asked if I could have my old job back and they accepted. They knew I had a lot going on after Sammi dying and it was hard to even think about going back - something I didn't even realise I wanted to do until about 4 months ago. 

   I had been talking to my boss since I decided it was something I wanted to do and we have been trying to think about when I could start, so I am joining at the end of August and doing the circuit for two months to settle myself back into the routine and then I'll start again fully after February. I was actually excited to get back into everything.

   I still missed Sammi like crazy but my family and mates had all made me realise - slowly I may add - that I had to move on and they made me come to the conclusion that I enjoyed my job and I may as well party for the both of us, try and live her life through me in some ways.

   The best thing was that I was going to spring my decision on everyone at Danielle's 18th birthday party that's coming up tomorrow night, I think it'll be the perfect time because everybody will be in the same room - including my Uncle Jeff, but I'm not bringing anyone with me that he can perv on. Thank God.

   Plus, the chances of Danielle actually staying at the party throughout the whole night are nil. She's eighteen and I've heard her and Kelsey planning it for the past month and a bit, so just before they all hit the city, I'll tell them my plans. 

   "Kyle? Are you in here?" Kelsey asked as she wandered into the living room and I smiled at her in response. For the past year, this girl has been my rock. 

   "No." I replied sarcastically which she returned a tight-lipped smile.

      "Have you seen him then?"

      I pretended to look around me and then turned back to her, "No."

      "Shame." She laughed before shaking her head, like she was trying to get rid of the ridiculous conversation we just had. "On another note, Danielle was wondering if you were coming into town with us tomorrow?"

   "Is your brother coming?" I replied and she shook her head. 

      "No, he's finishing up the last bits at university, but he's coming home on Monday for good!" She squealed and I laughed.

   "Thank God, there's only so much of your company I can take before I want to shoot-" I stopped what I was saying and she sighed, knowing my good mood was gone again. Why was I about to say that? Shoot myself? After Sammi. What a prick.

   "Don't beat yourself up." She demanded straight away and I looked up at her shocked before smiling a little.

   I sighed and stood on my feet, so I was looking down on her, "I'm not coming tomorrow, but I'll have a drink with you all before you head out." I suggested and she nodded her head.

   "Good."

      She went to turn around but I grabbed hold of her wrist, not in a harsh way. She turned back to face me with a questioning look. "I have something to tell you all tomorrow as well." I announced.

   When I didn't elaborate she frowned, "What news?"

      "It's for tomorrow." 

     She pouted and gave me her puupy dog eyes which made me laugh. I couldn't resist her when she pulled that face and she had helped me out a lot over the past year. What can telling just her hurt? "Okay, but stop with that face!" I cried with a laugh. "Now, you can't tell anybody because if they find out I told you first they'll all be annoyed with me."

   "Promise, now spill."

      "Well, I've got my old job back at First Choice and at the end of August, I'm going back." I told her but instead of the smile I expected to see, all I saw was her face drop.

   She looked back up to me, "Is that wise?"

      I smiled back at her, she was always looking out for me. "I know what you're thinking, but me and my boss Darren have been discussing it for the past four months and I think I really am ready. This part is only for two months as well, so if I don't like it I can come back and it'll all be fine."

   "Four months?" She breathed and if I wasn't stood so close to her, I wouldn't have heard her.

   "Yeah. Are you okay Kelsey?"

      She nodded her head, but she looked like she was about to cry. I went to give her a hug but she pulled away and when she was a reasonable distance away, she looked back at me, "I promise I won't tell anybody." She spoke before running back up the stairs leaving me in a daze.

Hey!

So Kyle doesn't realise that Kelsey likes him, liek REALLY like him still! Poor Kelsey!

Also, please vote and comment, it would mean the world!
