Nick's pov;
I hugged her from behind and thought, 'Let's continue the promise that your parents made. I'll be with you on every first day of snow during winter and we'll see it together.'
"Nick?" Elena called my name which brought me back to reality where Elena was calling my name again and again. I couldn't even comfort her properly by myself, since she's seeing me as a friend.
"Huh?"
"You came to say something. What is it?"
"Nothing." I smiled while patting her head, "Don't be sad. Your parents are with you here."Said while pointing at her heart and said, "And they are with you on every first day of snow in the winter as they promised."
She smiled in pain and said, "Yeah." And looked at me with teary eyes. I wiped her tears away using my thumbs and looked at her and held her face while caressing it with my thumb. My heart started beating faster when s
Nick's pov; "Did you understand what I said?" Carol asked me. I nodded my head to what Carol has been chanting about Elena. She continued, "You should back away if she rejects you. You shouldn't force her into liking you. Understood?" "Yeah. Yeah." Chuck interrupted, "Don't break his hopes already! He didn't even say he likes her yet. Let's wait and see how Elena reacts after Nick confess her and then we'll see what to do about that." Carol said back to him, "I'm just stating the facts here." "What do you mean? You're saying not to go after her if she rejects him. In which is it considered as facts? And what if he chases her? What's wrong with that? He likes her so he's going after her. I don't see anything wrong with that." "Did you already forget that Elena had a break up? Accepting
"The way you talk to Elena, Change it." I warned Henry."Why should I?" He asked me while leaning on the rack full of files. I thought If only I say that I like Elena, it will be clear for him to stay away from her. So I decided to say it to him."Because I like her."He smirked at me while saying, "Interesting."I ignored him and when I tried to walk out of the document room, Henry called me by asking, "Are you two dating?"I stopped from going out and turned to him and asked him, "What is it to do with you?""You sound like you didn't tell her yet.""What?""Does she know that you like her?"I shook my head."So… that means I still have a chance.""What!?"Henry walked towards me and placed his hand on
Elena's pov;The day after I went to Nick's place where I stayed for the night because of the storm.I woke up to the alarm song from my phone. I searched for my phone while still lying on the bed... Bed? But it doesn't feel like I'm lying on a bed. Where am I lying? It doesn't feel like a bed, my hand? I felt something warm under my hand. I blinked and opened my eyes to see... Nick? Was I lying on Nick's chest all along? How and when did I crawl over to Nick? I got up from the bed quietly and rushed to the bathroom.Why is my face so red? Am I blushing? Argh! I washed my face and looked at myself in the mirror in front of me. I slammed my face with both of my hands while asking myself why are you being so obvious? Something is beating faster. I placed my hand on my chest and felt my heart beating so fast. You're not a teenager to react like this. Stop it! I slammed my hands on the sink and shouted, "I'm a grown up woman and I s
Elena's pov;I came home and dropped on the couch. I let out a sigh. Why do I feel so tired? I placed my phone on the tea table before me and tried to get a bit of sleep. Wait! The guy I met in the club! He said his name is Henry. I forgot when he said his name in the club but he made me remember this time. He's working in Nick's office? Oh my gosh! What am I going to do now? What if he said that about me? Does he remember what happened that day? The way he treated me was kinda suspicious to me. The way he talked and the way he smiled was like he remembered that day. I hope he forgot what happened that day.I walked to the bathroom and washed my face and looked at myself in the mirror. The outfit I'm wearing is Nick's. I smiled to myself and remembered about taking pictures. After washing my face, I walked out of the bathroom to the living area.I took my phone from the table and sat on the couch while lookin
Nick's pov;Elena left after I agreed to sing for her. I started walking on my way. Wait! I remember it now, she tricked me! She tricked me again. And I went with her flow too? I let out a sigh.I came to my apartment. After locking the door behind me, I hung the coat on the hanger and entered the living area and felt tired. I walked to the bathroom and got showered. While ruffling my hair with the towel to dry it, I walked to the bed and sat on it.I took my phone and checked for any messages since there weren't any. I placed it beside the bed on the lamp. When I kept my phone on the table, I saw the sticky note which Elena left for me this morning. I took it and read it again and smiled at it. So she didn't want to bother me by waking me up so she left without telling me. And she was worried that I would be mad at her for that so she asked Sebastian for that. Why are you doing this? Why are you being
Nick's pov;I woke up today before the alarm sound even started ringing. I took my phone and turned off the alarm which was already been set and when I tried to charge it, I got a call from Elena. Why is she calling me so early?I answered the call, "Hello?"She asked me, "Can I return the clothes tomorrow because I forgot to do the laundry."I let out a chuckle and made sure she didn't hear that."Ah! It's fine. You can keep it. I said it doesn't fit me, remember. And it's also a unisex so you can have it to yourself.""Really??""Yeah.""Okay. But still… How much is it? I'll pay for the dress.""Hey! You're my friend so it's not a big deal to share clothes with a friend."She's seeing me as a friend so I should also behave like one too.
Elena's pov;I called Sebastian and said I'm going to the party and ended the call. After I made a call to Sebbi, I regretted it. Should I have to go to the party? I thought for a while and came to a conclusion, 'it's not bad to give it a try though.'On the Friday evening,"These are the files you asked me to check, mam."I placed a bunch of files on her desk and when I was about to leave ,she stopped me and said, "The meeting which got cancelled on Tuesday is now postponed to tomorrow. So don't forget it.""Tomorrow? But tomorrow's the weekend.""Mr Dawson's secretary said his schedule is pretty stuffed up for the next week so she said only tomorrow he'll be free.""But… mam… I…""What are you stuttering for?""Nothing, mam.""If you don't have any
53Elena's pov;After we finished eating the breakfast together, Nick asked me, "What are you doing after this?"I dumped the utensils in the sink while answering him, "It seems like you're free for the entire day.""Of course, I am. It's my weekend so I have to be free.""If you're that free, you can go and visit your friends then or you can go to mixers."He walked to me and helped with cleaning the utensils and said, "I don't like going to mixers.""Oh… okay. Well, Listen, Anyway I'm not going to invite you. Because it's the batch I studied and people who will be coming are my classmates. I'm already thinking about the questions they're going to ask me since I didn't go to many reunion parties so I cannot answer their questions if they ask about you.""I'm not trying for that."
