This is the second book of the series.
Though it can be read as a stand alone book. I would advice you to read Time Flies first.
Thank you...
Shane Smith, the son of David and Ava Smith.
The future CEO of The Blitz...
Handsome, stubborn, and the guy...

Shane
I didn't know when I drifted off to sleep but after so long I slept so peacefully. When I woke up early morning Skyler was still asleep.
I took a pillow and place it in my place so that she doesn't feel that I am gone. I slowly let go of her hand and then glanced at her. I sat on my knees admiring her face. She was smiling in her sleep sleeping like a baby. Watching her sleep was the best thing. I gently stroke her hair placing a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"Again I am here when you are asleep and probably cannot hear me like the day you were at the hospital. If you want to know about me. I feel the same. Every day is dreading without you. I cannot sleep, I cannot eat. I just sit in my cabin looking at your photo for hours. There hasn't been a minute when I don't think of you. There isn't anything that reminds me of you. Every time I drink coffee or pass by your cabin or when I visit our home I think of you. Every time I visit the beach I miss you and wish none of this happened. We would have been together. I cannot stay away from you yet I have to and it breaks me that I cannot do anything about it. It hurts me that you think I left you for Emily when its exactly been the opposite. I left you for you...Remember when I told you that I will always be with you even if I am not with you. I have always been by your side as I promised. Whether it was the first deal of your company or when you brought your house. I was always there even if you didn't know I was. I am sorry and I still love you and will always love you but you have to move on. It's for the best that you don't know the truth."
I wipe the tear with the sleeve of my shirt as I kissed her hand. I went down and made some breakfast for her leaving a note along in the dining table and then locking the door I went back home.
Skyler
I woke up the next morning with Shane no longer beside me. Did I really asked him to stay the night? Was I dreaming? No, it cannot be.
I remember him holding me in his arms. I remember having to smell him touch him. It was real...
He did stay the night. I look at myself and see myself in Shane's hoodie. I clutched it. It smelt of him and it felt like he was here. He helped me change last night. I love this and obviously, I am taking this home with me.
It's already morning and everyone must be worrying about me and where is Shane? I was a hundred percent sure that last night was not a dream. He comforted me to sleep and he was here with me. He will deny it and say he was in the other room when I will ask but I know.
I go downstairs in search of him where the smell of pancakes filled the room. I take a look at the kitchen but he was not here. I walk to the dining table and find pancakes along with whipped cream and berries with a mug of black coffee. There was also a note. I opened it.
Good morning. I hope you slept well. I made breakfast for you. Pancakes just how you like it. Also, there is an aspirin at the counter for your headache. I would have waited but I had some work and don't worry Noah knows you are safe and where you are. See you...
