Soulmates

What can I do?

I came by closer and closer every step I took one step closer and there she was. My cousin on the porch waiting for me.
"Elizabeth! You startled me." she said catching her breath.
"Beth you don't know how happy I am to see you. " I replied sobbing. I opened the door so both of us could enter. I set two cups of hot coffee with some crackers on the dining table.
"What's wrong?" she asked snacking on a cracker.
"I had the most amazing day  with Luis then I had a meeting with my boss, I got fired." I replied.
She looked at me so devastated.
"What are you gonna do now?" she asked.
" Honestly I don't know I'll talk to Luis to see if he can help me out." I replied sipping on my coffee.
We finished up and she told me that everything would be alright. She washed the dishes for me and fed Lila while I  bathed and prepared to go to bed. She slept in the guess room while I was in my room. I wondered if I should tell her my feelings towards Luis but I don't want a negative answer from her at the same time. I decided to keep it to myself and wait. You see I never taught about what I would do without my job. Now I need to do something but what can I do?.  For that I fell asleep, the house became super quiet but I needed some rest.

"Wake up Eliza you have a visitor." yelled Beth.
I slowly reached for my phone to see the time and it was just 7:40 am who would visit me this early?.  At some point I wished that Beth would just leave me to sleep. I came down slowly down the stairs and I could have heard slight whisoers. Technically I was easedrppjng.
"She got fired."
"What how? Why?"
"She didn't go in full detail, she just said she got fired and now she's devastated."
"My poor beautiful Elizabeth I hope I can help her."
I wondered in my head who can this be, a visitor since when?.  I slowly went back up the stairs and came down as I though I was running down.
"Shh she's coming."
I entered the living room with my hair all messy and in my pjs.
"Good morn.... ing." I said while my words were slowly disappering.
He chuckled at me.
"I see you were enjoying your sleep, " he said standing up from the sofa to approach me with a hug.
Beth saw him coming toward me so she left to go check on Lila.
"I'm sorry I'm not appropriate this morning this was unexpected." I said looking down. He placed his finger on my chin and lifted up my head. I froze and I didn't know want to do. I stepped back a little. Just a little. He brushed my cheek with his hand. I felt chills down my arm and back. He slowly put his mouth by my ear.
"Elizabeth you're naturally beautiful just like this no need for apologies," he said softly. I just wanted to grab him and hug him till I couldn't ever again. Instead I just stayed calm and pretended not to be nervous at all or anything. He heard Beth coming back so he stepped back.
"Elizabeth why don't you and Luis come get a plate of food that I've been preparing," she said steadily.
" Yes we're coming in a minute," I replied.
Luis grinned at me taking my hand and pulling me into the kitchen. I smelt the bacon's frying in a pan. Beth knows how much I love bacon. Luis and I sat at the table waiting for our breakfast to be served. His actions were so powerful to me. I've never felt him that close to me. We lost connection because he moved from New York to Virginia and so did I after a couple of years. I couldn't stop thinking about what he said. Beth brought out our breakfast and it smelt good. I digged in before anyone else. It was too delicious. I took sips of my fresh orange juice and bites of my bacon and pancakes. Beth and Luis looked at me as though I was a lost animal. I laughed in my head so hard. It was a good morning start I really love having them both around,  they made me the happiest person on earth that morning. While eating I quickly took a glance at Luis only to find that he was starting right at me back it felt kind of awkward. I felt the tension between us I thought Beth felt it too cause she's always making excuses to go do this and that. Luis doesn't know how I feel and I still don't know  what I can do to solve a lot of problems right now. Why me?
