I Think That You May Be The One (Book 1)

Tickets

*Gianna's pov

"Hey Gianna, ready to head to Cali?" Danny asked. We've been spending a lot of time together lately. "I uh... I'm not going, I'm dropping out" I said softly. "Gianna May! What the hell are you doing?! This is your dream!" Keith shouted suddenly appearing at my side a hand on mine. "Why Gianna?" Danny asked concerned. "Well" I said preparing to answer them both at once. "I was doing this with Keith, it was our thing, I can't do it without him, I'm not ready. And without that internship they won't let me continue," I shrugged. "So I'll drop out and when I'm ready I'll go back" I said softly. "You promised to move on!" Keith shouted. "I know I did! It's not easy you were, are, everything to me!" I screamed in my head at Keith. "You know Keith would hate for you to give up everything for him" Danny said. I sighed, oh I know it, I thought. "I know but he is my everything, pursuing this right now just hurts too much, I need to heal, and move on slowly" I said making sure Keith heard me. "Are you thinking about getting back out there?" He asked and I could feel Keith sulked some beside me. "Not yet, it's way too soon" I shook my head at the thought.

I don't think I ever will. "Of course you will and you should, it'll make getting over me easier" Keith whispered in my ear. "No you not showing up and pulling on my heart strings would make it easier!" I thought almost in tears. "He would want you to move on... And find someone else that makes you happy and can take care of you" Danny insisted. God are they working together? I thought. "Maybe, if it happens it happens I'm not trying right now, if someone happens to catch my eye and make me happy so be it" I said making sure they both understood. "That's a good answer" Danny said hugging me. "I still think you should do the internship, just in case ya know, it'll be good for you, and even if you don't go back to school maybe you can get a job out of it" he shrugged.

I nodded, he was right, maybe. It would be fun, and sitting around here is too hard, too filled with memories. Even if I don't stay for the whole internship, I could use a vacation. "Okay, will you drive me to the airport tomorrow?" I asked. He smiled and nodded, "anything for you sis" he said and kissed my cheek. "See you bright and early" he smiled and I walked him out. I sigh and ran upstairs to pack my bags. "Well you got what you wanted" I said to Keith. "No you wanted it too. Come on don't be grumpy, I can't console you, it sucks. All I want is to know you're happy and there is someone, who loves you as much as I do, there to take care of you" he responded. "Is that why you sulked when Danny mentioned me dating again?" I asked. "Listen, I may be a ghost but the thought of someone else with you still kills me! No pun intended, I hate that but I can't be there anymore and you need someone in your life to make you happy. You need to smile again," he said.

I smiled in the direction of his voice, "happy?" I asked sarcastically. "Not a fake one, the one that lights up the whole room and makes every man stop and stare, the one that made me fall in love with you, a sincere, truly happy, smile" he said and I could feel his hand on my cheek. "I miss you so much" I cried, tears finally spilling over. "I know you do baby, I miss you too" he said. "Will you stay tonight?" I asked sure he would say no but hopeful nonetheless. "Tonight" he nodded. I finished packing everything for a while at least, and crawled into bed. A set of arms wrapped around me. It was weird I couldn't feel any weight on the bed but he was there. "Goodnight baby girl" he said kissing my cheek. "Goodnight baby" I whispered and curled up in bed the covers on me and Keith's arms securely around me.

I woke the next morning with Keith still beside me. I smiled, I've missed it. "There's that smile I love" he said happily. "Morning" I smiled. "Morning" he said pressing his lips on mine. "Go get ready, I'll talk to you after you land" he said softly. I frowned, "why?" I asked. "Because I can't always be here Gigi, how will you move on?" He asked his hand on my cheek. I nodded, "okay" I managed. This is too much, I need to stop this, he isn't here. I have to move on, eventually. I walked into the bathroom and turned on the water and brushed my teeth while it warmed up. I packed my toothbrush and striped down. The hot water felt nice and soothing, comforting almost. Once I finished I shut the water and searched my closet for something. I settled on my skinny jeans, lace tank, and a sweater. I searched for shoes, "hmm vans work," I said and slipped them on.

I stuck my phone in my pocket took my wristlet with my ticket and my small carry on with the remainder of my purse items and slung it over my shoulder. I closed my suitcase and trudged downstairs. Danny was there all too soon to drive me. I wrote a note for my parents and left. I stared out the window the whole way. "This is it" Danny said stopping in front of the doors. "Yep" I sighed. "You'll do great, keith would be proud" he smiled and kissed my forehead, "call me when you land" he said and I hugged him tight, "I'll miss you most of all scarecrow" I smiled tears forming. He smiled at my wizard of oz reference, it was our favorite movie to watch together. "Go on before I stop you" he said hugging me again. I sighed and walked toward security. I checked in my bags and soon found myself on a long flight to California. The plane started down the runway and I found myself drifting to sleep with the sweet sounds of maroon 5 filling my head.

Six hours can be quite long when nervous. I played games on the screen in front of my seat when I woke up and had a little something to eat. Soon enough I arrived at LAX and I searched for my luggage. Now finding a cab could be difficult. I finally hailed one and gave the cabbie the address to the house Keith and I had rented. I pulled the key from my pocket and walked inside. It was gorgeous, Keith had good taste. I dropped my stuff and looked around, and found a note on the kitchen table. "Dear renter, please be advised that the owner of this house has passed. And has requested that the deed be transferred to your name. The documents necessary to complete the transfer are attached." I furrowed my brow, and looked at the documents. Keith Camp leaves the home to Gianna Williams. He bought the house, but why we were only going to be here for a short while, why buy the house? I kept searching through the documents and found a note. "Gigi, thought this could be our vacation home, what do you think? ;) " I nearly cried. But how could he transfer the papers if he didn't know he was going to die? I looked over the documents 4 more times before finding it, Danny. He must've found the paper work and transferred it, that's why he insisted.

I smiled and kept looking around. It was I perfect, not too big, not too small. I smiled and picked up my phone and clicked Danny's name. "Hey Gianna" he said happily. "I hate you" I said through laughter. "Sorry, I figured you had to know and I figured Keith would still want you to have the house." I smiled and was going to ask how but I figured I could ask him later. "I can't believe he did all of this and didn't tell me. It's perfect though" I said finally sitting on the couch. "Good, maybe I'll come visit" he said and I could hear the sadness in his voice. "I'm not staying forever, just a little while, besides you are always welcome" I said reassuring him. "Good, I might just show up soon" he chuckled. "Sounds good." I paused, "I should unpack and call about this internship I'll talk to you later?" I asked. "Yea of course" he said. "Love you sis" he said and it filled my heart with warmth, "love you too bro" I smiled.

Okay gather yourself Gianna, no one wants to talk to a sniffling mess on the phone. I took a deep breath and called the internship number I had. "How may I help you?" The woman asked. "Um I had an internship there this semester and I was wondering about the details of it" I said anxiously. "Name?" "Gianna May Williams." I listened to her type and click around a little bit. "Miss Williams, I'm sorry I don't have you on my list, there must be a mistake" she informed me. My jaw dropped in shock. "Are you kidding?! I came here from Boston! I need this for school!" I shouted. "I'm sorry miss there was a letter sent to your address on file last week" she said and hung up. I groaned, "now what Keith?! I don't even have an internship!" I shouted at the empty room. "Read the note" I heard. "God you're getting on my nerves! You don't tell me you buy this house and then you send me to Cali for an internship I don't even have now!"

I know I shouldn't be mad at him, it's not his fault but he was around to listen. I found the envelop I hadn't noticed before and opened it. It was a handwritten note. I questioned it at first then noticed it was Keith's. "So about that internship there is another one we can do while in school next semester.. I think we need a vacation -Keith" I sighed. "I'm sorry I yelled, but what is all of this? First you want me to take the internship then you cancel it? What gives?" I asked frustrated. "I know and I want you too but I thought we needed a nice long vacation to explore. Now it's perfect you can explore and get back out there before diving back into school. I know you are almost done, but you need this." He said softly. "I know you want me to find someone else but I can't it's way too soon it's only been 5 weeks" I said turning to the sound of his voice. "I'm not asking you to fall in love just make new friends, talk to someone other than Danny" he said and his hand found my back. "Fine" I said and grabbed my keys and headed out. I wondered around for forever it seemed before realizing I didn't know how to get back. I sighed and found an office building and walked in.
