chapter twenty-three : ~your presence~

"I should get inside now.." I whispered softly,as jake brought me closer to him.

"Just a little bit longer. I don't want to let you go just yet" he said,lifting up my chin and tucking a piece of my hair behind my ears. He slowly met my lips,placing a soft kiss on them. I put my arms around his neck , as I brought my body closer to his. I noticed something small standing at the gate of my house. I pulled away from jake. "jake someone's watching us..." I said slightly terrified. I held tightly on his shirt . He looked and started laughing .

"Billy, does your mom know your out this late and creeping on people?" Asked jake in between laughs .

"I'm sorry. can you take me home Jake?" Asked Billy. Before Jake could turn to me I started pushing him.

"Go ahead "I said,as they left I went inside. The lights were off in the house. I took off my shoes and walked to the kitchen. I hear laughing and conversations being made in the living room. I grabbed my water and made my way to the sounds . Before opening the door I heard a smooth yet deep voice speak.

"I'm just glad to be back in crystal falls. it's just for the best. when you think of it school is starting back and it's my last year" said the guy with the extremely smooth yet deep voice.

who could this possibly be?My aunt could not have invited a complete stranger inside,right? Before I knew it the knob began to turn. I ran behind the wall. As I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, I felt someone pull me into their chest. Their arms wrapped around my body.

"I missed you" They whispered. Suddenly lifting my chin to meet their eyes.

"Zayn? W-what are you-"

"I heard what happen and I just could just leave the way I left" he said cutting me off. I looked into Zayn's hazel eyes. "You left me with so many unanswered questions" I said being completely honest.

"well I'm here now and I'm not going anywhere" he said tucking a piece of my hair behind my ears. As he gently brushed my cheeks. Something was telling me pull away, but my my body stayed in place. Zayn's hand travels its way towards my waist securing me in my place. " I'm just glad your okay" he said in a soft whisper into my ear. His lips slightly touched my ears. I closed my eyes and slowly pulled away.

Barely making sense of my words, I took his hand. " have you heard from Jennifer or Hannah?" I asked.

"Jennifer is coming back pretty soon for school. Hannah? I have not heard from her" he said.

"I guess this means things for her in New York is going well"

"Hey text me. I have to actually get going" said Zayn giving me one last hug. I nodded and he was on his way out the door .

Just as I was about to go to my room, my aunt called me. I walked into the living room to meet her and Natalie. I was fighting the urge to hurt Natalie. Aunt Lindsey signal me to sit down.

" I have been gone a lot due to your mother's company and clothing line. Not to forget both of your father's company. everything is at bay there now. This means-"

"You will be home with us more" I added with a slight attitude in my voice.

"Exactly" she said.

Aunt Lindsey always wanted kids could but could not make them. Her husband, which I call uncle Robert has taken over my parent's jobs. Making sure everything is okay and well. So as Natalie and I father's died, they adopted Natalie. It was her fathers wishes of anything had to happen to him.
