Love Trap (Slow Updates)

Prologue.

Aria's pov;

"This is officially the last box" I told Jayleen and huffed.

"Welcome to New York" She smiled proudly of me and the only thing I did, was jump on my new bed.

"Good night New York, it was nice meeting you, but I am exhausted" I complained and she sat next to me.

"It's only like 4 in the afternoon and you are going to sleep?" She asked.

"Isn't 4 in the afternoon when everyone naps? So why shouldn't I take a long nap?" I asked her.

"Because there are tons of things we can do" She said.

"I have other priorities first. I need to arrange everything in here, the whole apartment is a mess. If I don't do it now, I'm going to leave it like this forever" I said.

"I get it. And you want to have space when Neels comes here to eat your face off" She smirked.

"This is not about Neels. He's in Los Angeles anyway, he won't be here for two weeks" I said.

"I'm going to take off. But call me if anything comes up" She said.

"Okay, see you later" I said and she left my apartment.

My own apartment. In New York City. I for sure never was expecting this turn in my life, but here I am, located in the center of New York, starting as a NYU student first thing next week. Woah. I'm not ready for this. How am I going to find my way around? I mean, I do have Jaeleen with me, but school will be way different than it used to be when I was in Yale. Pleasantly better, I hope. It can't be worse than how it was in Yale.

I take my phone out of my pocket and dial Neels phone number. I hope he picks up.

"Hello?" He answered.

"Hey" I said.

"My little New Yorker. How are you baby?" He asked. He sounds happy, I wish I was as happy as him.

"I'm tired, I miss you and I'm hungry" I said.

"I miss you too. I will be there in no time, I promise" He said.

"I'll be waiting" I said.

"So, are you settled in?" He asked.

"Yeah, the apartment looks as great as it did a few weeks ago. I wish you could see it. The view is amazing" I said and stood up, walking around. It's really dark in here, I should open the curtain and the window to get some fresh air.

"I will, soon. I can show you around when I come back" He said.

"I can't wait. It's really-" I open the window and I look right across from me, at the other apartment window facing mine, from the building next to mine. "Holy shit" I muttered. I turn around immediately when I realize I'm staring at a complete stranger working out.

"What? What happened?" Neels' voice brings me back to earth.

"Uh... Nothing just dropped my bag" I lied. I have Neels, what was I doing staring at that guy anyway?

"Oh okay. I gotta go, my photo shoot is starting in a minute. I'll call you when I'm finished, I love you" He said.

"I love you too, have fun" I said.

"Will do, bye babe" He said and hang up. I closed my phone and took a big breath.

"You know, watching me is not a really friendly thing to do" I hear a deep voice say and I'm startled. I drop my phone to the floor and scream. "You're definitely clumsy. And a bad liar" He said and I turned around. I notice a British accent when he speaks.
