Little Games

Chapter 38: #almostdone

it's here.

epilogue is going to be up later on today.

I love you all so much and I can't wait to show you the third book.  Thank you for sticking by me this far; through the fetus writings to the 10 page chapters to the constant updates to the slow updates . . . everything.

                                        Sofia's POV

        Four months flew by and now, I'm down in Miami. You know, going to the beach is better when you have your old friends with you.

        Katelyn couldn't be here because she was off to Italy; her family has quite the wealth. She actually invited me to come, but I told her I already had plans for the summer. Good thing is they're going to Greece next year and her family has counted me in on that.

"Even back home, it isn't this hot." Claudia exaggerated as she fanned herself and I laughed, throwing a ball of sand at her.

        Claudia was my childhood best friend and we kept in touch; her current obsession was One Direction, but you know, move along.

"Hey, don't ruin my tan!" I laughed even harder as she smiled; it's been way too long.

        At least she went in the water later on in the day; by that time, we were already deciding on where to eat.

"But I just got in the water!" Claudia complained and I chuckled; I extended my hand out to her and she grabbed it as I pulled her up from her sitting position.

"Well . . . the beach isn't going anywhere." The simplicity of my statement made her laugh and together, we ran to the hotel; flying by the lobby and sprinting up the stairs.

        We changed and went to eat. We stopped at this local restaurant on South Beach and luckily, there was no sign of the boys.

        One of my friends told me that apparently One Direction's first stop in the tour was Sunrise and their second stop in the state was Miami so I was pretty nervous. I didn't have any plans that involved seeing them again and if we were to stumble upon each other, I don't think I'll be able to keep my sanity in check.

"What will you be having?" I looked up to see the waiter, expectant as to what I was going to order and I shook my head, an apologetic smile making its way onto my face.

"Sorry, I was . . . thinking over things. I would like to have the Shrimp and Scallops Linguini; thank you." I ended and focused back on what I was thinking.

        If I am going to forget them completely, I haven't done one thing.

        And that is to return the guitar Niall gifted me.

        I love my guitar; it's beautiful and its sound doesn't emit the same as any other, but whenever I look at it, I can't help, but think of them and that is mental torture for me.

        But I won't give my guitar to just anyone. I know not everyone would take as good care of it as I would want. That is why it wouldn't be such a bad idea to give it back to the person who gave me the guitar.

        I could just mail it, but I don't want to be as shallow as them so . . . why not see them one last time? Not to settle the mess they've created, but to finalize where we are.

        Now who do I know that has Meet & Greet tickets for their first stop in Florida?

        Tanya and her offer to invite me were still present; wasn't this a coincidence?

"Mom, can I make a quick call?" I faced her, gazing at her phone; groaning, she gave it to me.

        I went to the bathroom and fortunately, Claudia didn't follow so I was alone.

        Dialing the number was so rare; I'm so used to speed dial.

        One lonely ring and she answered with a chirp.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Tanya; do you still have those Meet & Greet tickets?"

thank you, guys; once again.
