I sighed happily as I looked at the ring. The moment Newt left, I called Jacob to tell him everything that happened.
He let out a low whistle. "A promise ring? Sounds like this guy is serious."
"I know. I know. I couldn't believe it either. One minute we're fighting and the next he asked me to be his girlfriend."
"If this was any other guy, then that might have been a bit suspicious. But this Newt person seems like he really cares for you."
I leaned against the wall as I ran my hand through my hair. "I know he does, but I - I can't help but feel like he's hiding something." I gasped as I removed myself from the wall. "What if he's the killer?"
"Alina, I haven't met the guy, but I'm pretty sure he isn't a killer."
I started biting my nail. "Think about it. I was at the bakery when I saw the girl's body. Newt just so happens to 'run' into me and Ryan at that bakery. Then he offered to stay with me that night and acted weird the next morning."
"Maybe he wanted to be a good boyfriend and make sure you're all right. You did tell me you shared the bed, maybe he was still not use to it."
"Then explain the chocolate thing. He claimed that I talked in my sleep, but I never do. Somehow he just knew I was allergic to chocolate. And he had my allergy medication ." What if Newt's a stalker? Oh, god, I might be dating a stalker.
"What are you saying, you don't trust the guy?" Jacob asked.
"I do. I mean, I don't. I mean, I don't know." I heard a few whispers in the background. Jacob let out a few yeahs and okays. "What?"
"Queenie said that you shouldn't judge Newt so quickly. And to listen to your heart." I leaned against the wall again and closed my eyes. "What does your heart say, Alina?"
What does my heart say? Well, it always feels fuzzy whenever he's near me. Even if he's not trying to, Newt can be adorable in his own awkward way. He - He's sweet. He's innocent. He makes my day a whole lot brighter, better. Newt...Newt's amazing. He's always been since we met on that boat.
"That I'm in love with him," I stated happily.
I heard a little squeal from his end and I know it's not his. I heard his voice and a softer one at the end. He must have Queenie over at his house.
"Uh, Alina, Queenie said she send you something."
I furrowed my eyebrows. "I didn't get anything."
"She said it should have arrived by now."
"Hold on." I left the phone on the drawer and made my way out the front door. I looked down to see a nearly folded package on the ground. Weird, the mail just came in today. I picked it up and went inside. "Wait, I got it."
"What is it?" he asked as I opened it.
I gasped as my mouth flew open. I see the little bakery symbol on the box. "She send me some of your pastries!" I exclaimed. I noticed that there was steam coming out of it. When I grabbed one, it was still warm. I moaned when I ate one with the peach filling. "It's just like it came out of the oven."
"I know a guy!" I heard Queenie yell. She is awesome. I heard some shuffling before her voice broke through the phone. "Listen, Alina. If you love Newt, then you should go to his house and tell him. He's a lucky guy to have someone like you in his life. And I have a feeling that he loves you, too."
I bit my lip. "What if he doesn't?" I don't want to tell him that I love him only for him to not feel the same way.
It seemed like Queenie knew what I was thinking. "Trust me, Alina. Newt loves you. He wouldn't go through all of this if he didn't. Now take a deep breath and repeat after me." I did what she told me. "My name is Alina Nikolai."
"My name is Alina Nikolai," I repeated.
"And I'm going to march over to Newt's house and tell him that I love him."
"And I'm going to march over to Newt's house and tell him that I love him."
"Again."
I took a deep breath. "My name is Alina Nikolai. And I'm going to march over to Newt's house and tell him that I love him." I placed the pastry down. "You're right, Queenie. Newt isn't a killer. He isn't dangerous. I'm happy and I love him." A huge smile came on my face. "I love Newt Scamander."
I bit her goodbye before I hung up the phone. I wrapped my scarf around my neck and ran towards his house. I kept apologizing to everyone I bumped into. I made my way around the corner and ran up the steps. I can do this. I can do this. I raised my fist to knock on the door, but heard something crash. I furrowed my eyebrows as I looked through the window.
Newt was in his living room with a weird looking stick. My eyes widen when he waved it towards the bookshelf. My mouth dropped when I see this weird porcupine-like creature floating in mid-air. Yeah, floating! What the hell is that thing?! Newt opened up his case and the creature magically floated down. He closed the case and locked it before getting up. What the hell? Then Newt waved that weird stick and the broken vase slowly began fixing itself as it went back towards the night stand. Oh, my god.
Is my mind playing tricks on me? It - It must be. I didn't see Newt make light appear into thin air. I didn't see a weird porcupine thing and I did not just see a plant climb up Newt's coat. It started jumping up and down, making him look up. Newt's eyes widen in shock when he found me standing there with my mouth agape.
I quickly turned around and started running when he got up. I heard his door open. "Alina!" he shouted. I ignored him as I kept running. "Alina, wait!"
I didn't wait. What the hell did I just saw? That's impossible. Nothing like that should have existed. Where the hell am I suppose to go? If I go home, he'll just follow me there. I can't go to any of my clients, that's just weird. I kept running and running until I came across a familiar street. My feet hurt, my mouth had the metallic taste with each breath. I took deep breathes before I knocked on the door.
Ryan's friendly face came to view when he opened it. "Hey, Alina. What are you doing here?"
"I - I need to talk to someone," I panted.
He noticed my scared look and opened the door open. "Tell me everything."
