Only You

Jake's POV

Horns, car engines and people chattering surrounded me. I had the window of my friends car down so I could feel the breeze from outside. I sat parked outside of a sandwich shop, I had to come into the car because I had been inside the shop too long already..I didn't want to seem too suspicious. 

I left the mall a few minutes before Katie did, this morning I had found out the address she's staying at after some investigation, and had roses delivered to her front door. I know she'll love them, roses have always been her favorite flower. 

I miss her, and I know she misses me. She can tell herself she doesn't but I know she does, and that's what keeps me going every day. If it weren't for her I would have no reason to live anymore, she is perfect and she is mine. It's only been a few weeks of her being away from me but it feels like much more, I've felt lonely without her but I know she's doing this to make our relationship stronger. 

Some days it feels like she doesn't want me anymore but I know she's pretending, she makes me crazy when she pretends like that. She's really good at it. I know she's upset because sometimes I say things I don't mean, but soon we will be together again and everything will go back to normal.

I saw the flower delivery man go in and come out a few minutes ago, so I know soon she will receive them. I've been waiting in the car, in case she wants to come out and see me..she does that sometimes. I look through my binoculars every so often, just to have a closer look. The sad part is I can't see into her apartment because its one-way glass, until I can figure out a way to look through one way glass, I'm going to have to stick to seeing her when she goes out.

"There she is" I whispered, watching her walk out of the main door with the roses in her hand. She must love them. She looks so perfect, so beautiful..her outfit probably made other men look at her with how tight it is, but I can forgive her for that. I always do.

She looked around, up and down the street. If she would have known what my friends car looks like she would easily see me, I'm not within the 100 feet that the police offer told me I can't be in, but she would definitely see me. 

I nearly got out of the car and ran to hug her until I saw her walk to the garbage can near the door. She hovered the flowers over the opening

She's pretending again, I can tell. Just then she turned the vase upside down, causing the roses to fall into the garbage. My heart fell into my stomach, I know she's pretending but it still hurts. This just means next time I have to try harder. I have left her love notes and now given her flowers but maybe she wants more from me. 

After all, she does love me.
