I stood there for what felt like seconds but must've been minutes. Footsteps snapped me back to reality. I knew whose footsteps they were anywhere. In a panic I clumsily scramble to the kitchen grabbing a pot and filling it with water.
"Hey babe I forgot my phone." Ethan...or Nicholas says when he finally comes in.
"Oh okay." I respond pretending I didn't notice he had.
"I'll be back at the usual time." He notifies me.
"Uh huh." I nod now stirring the pot of water. He leaves and I immediately turn off the oven. In a moment of impulse I stuff my feet in slippers and grab my keys. Soon I was following him  as he drove down an unfamiliar back road getting further and further from town.
"There's no way he's Nicholas." I kept muttering to myself. But if I honestly thought this was a mistake I wouldn't be trailing him. I forced myself to take deep breaths as it seemed I wasn't getting enough oxygen. I felt kind of dizzy but I had just received a major shock and on a empty stomach so of course I would feel a little faint. After what had to be hours Ethan or Nicholas pulled up to a large, gloomy looking building. The very presence of it gave me chills. I stayed still and watched as Ethan or Nicholas got out and greeted a all to familiar face. I remembered him as one of the men closest to Nicholas, business wise. But Ethan didn't seem to find him a stranger, had they met before? But it was too coincidental that Ethan knew one of Nicholas's business partners. And there was no way this was where accountants work. Had he gone here every time he said he was going to work? I suddenly felt stupid. Nicholas was very powerful and had plenty of resources to track down people. And here I thought I could fake a death and get away and never be found. But not only did Nicholas find me. He disguised himself and made me fall in love with him. Without a second thought I climb out of my car and sneak into the woods surrounding the building. Of course it wasn't the best decision the sticks would scratch my bare legs an my slippers gave little relief from the rocks and stickers on the ground. I stared as Ethan/Nicholas went inside with the man. I tried to get a peek inside but the door closed within a blink. I sigh feeling defeated because now I didn't know what to do. I stared at my hands that were slightly bleeding from the thorn bush I tried to balance on. My first thought was to go back home and pack and get the hell out of here. But I wanted answers. Ethan was my first love, the only person I let myself depend on especially recently when he found out about Nicholas but stayed by my side....Only he is Nicholas so really all that we were was just a lie. The whole time he was someone else with an ulterior motive. Anger and hate flooded through me and for a moment I wanted to be stupid and march into that building and demand answers. But the logical and more calmer side of me insisted we get into the car and speed off. I guess I would never know what I would have done because right then I felt a sharp pain at the back of my head and the world turned black.
