And Then There Was You.. (Unedited)

Chapter 3-Surprises, Kisses and Flat Tires.

The pain kept getting stronger. I couldnt breathe. I felt as if I was suffocating inside my car. I didnt know what to do. How could I make the pain go away?. Julian's angel like face  haunted me everywhere. Its all I can see.

The tears were already filling my eyes, and I felt a lump rise in my throat. I wanted to scream. I wanted to run, but no matter how far behind I left him, he was still here with me.

I couldnt stay in my car anymore. I pulled over, and I got out of the car, wanting some air. When all of the sudden, my legs were not able to carry me anymore, and I sunk to the ground.

I couldnt get up, I couldnt move a muscle in my body, all I can think about is him..

I sat by my car, wrapped my arms around my knees, and just cried, cried like I never did before... 

I was about to get up, when I noticed that I had a flat tire. How the hell did I not know that I had a flat tire? but then again, I wasnt really aware of anything anymore. I was about to freak out, when I remembred that someone did teach me how to fix a flat tire, and that I remember every little bit of it.

*Flashback*

It was 2 days after I got those beautiful roses, even though I was convinced that it was not Julian who sent me those roses and that poem, but a part of me hoped it would be him, because since the night we met, I couldnt get him out of mind..

Ella wouldnt leave me alone. She would tease me all the time and make kissing noises whenever I bring up the topic of the roses and the poem. So I tried to keep my mouth shut and not talk to anyone about it, though it killed me not knowing who sent it.

I was at work, and I had this feeling in my stomach all day. A feeling that wouldnt go away, its like something wonderful is going to happen today, I tried to shake it off and focus on work, but as usual, luck was not on my side..

 On my way home from work, I was at this scary part of town, it was secluded and dark, like in the middle of nowhere.

I always held my breathe whenever I was passing by this place, I was ready to hold my breath when suddenly I felt my car vibrating abnormally. I pulled over and to my luck, it was a flat tire.

"Oh man" I screamed. I dont know how to fix a flat tire. What the hell am I going to do now?. I looked around for help, not a single person was nearby. I really was in the middle of nowhere.

I thought about calling someone for help, and because the universe obviously hates me, there was no signal. Ugh can this day get any worse?

I started walking down the street, freaking out because not one car was in sight. "What in god's name am i supposed to do now?" I said to myself.

I went back to my car, and I stared at the tire. Maybe I can try to fix it myself. I mean how hard can it be?

I opened the trunk, and I found the spare tire. I got it out but it was too damn heavy that I dropped it on the floor. And I screamed out of utter frustration.

I was practically dragging it on the floor, when I felt some else's presence, I froze.

"Do you need some help with that?" a very familiar voice said.

I turned around, and there he was, Julian. Standing there looking like a runaway model, he was wearing a white linen shirt and black jeans. 

I just stared at him saying nothing, then after some time. I snapped out of it and tried to sound serious.      " Um no thanks, I dont need your help, I can fix this all by myself" I said looking at him up and down trying to not drool all over.
