Sally Pov:
Lucy, Maddy and I can't find Skye anywhere.
Not at Beano's, Levi's apartment, anywhere!
We take a taxi to Central Park and have a look around for a while.
"English girls!" I hear someone call, we all spin around and look in the direction we heard it.
I see a boy bounding towards us, after a while, I realise it's Alex.
"Hey!" He pants.
"English girls? Really?!" Lucy asks.
"Well it would've taken so much breath to call all your names!" Alex says.
"You could've just called one name!" Maddy laughs.
"But then the other two might have been offended!" Alex smiles. "Do you see my logic?"
"Yeah." I nod and roll my eyes.
"Okay. Well I was just wondering round, trying to find something to do, thought of some things, then decided I would look really weird doing them on my own! So, I was heading back home to call Levi or someone then I saw you guys!" Alex explains.
"I see, now what's your idea?" Lucy asks.
"I have a few options:
1. Watch Ansel's new film,
2. Ice skate,
3. Swimming,
4. Do a little bit of early Christmas shopping,
5. Or..whatever?" Alex says.
"I vote 4!" Maddy says.
"All activities include Nandos after." Alex adds.
"I vote 4 too." I say.
"Yeah me too!" Lucy says.
Alex claps his hands together, "Great, right this way then!"
Alex leads us towards the shops.
It's only October and we're already Christmas shopping!
Ansel Pov:
"Skye!" I call. She sits on a bench alone.
She looks up then gets up and goes to walk away.
I run after her.
I grab her arm, "Skye?! What's wrong?"
She shakes my arm off, "Don't touch me, okay?"
I stumble back, "I don't understand?"
"I'm gonna make this real easy for you, is it Sally or me?" Skye asks me, her eyes filled with tears.
"What are you on about?!" I ask, suddenly very confused.
"I know that Sally is the girl you've missed since the day you left London. I know that you've never loved me as much as you ever loved her. I know that you have never stopped loving her. And now she's back." Skye says, her voice shaking.
I'm lost for words.
"You...uh..How do you know?" I ask.
"You texted me last night! You sent me about five texts saying how fricking happy you were, Ansel!" Skye yells.
"I'm sorry, I don't remember..." I say.
"It doesn't matter anyway. What matters is, do you still love me?" Skye asks not meeting my eyes.
"...I don't know." I say.
Skye wipes her eyes, "You're lying. You do know."
I don't answer.
She sniffs and rakes a hand through her brown waves of hair, "Okay."
She picks up her bag and walks away.
I watch her until she disappears.
