One More Chance novel Chapter 87

~~~Leave the radio on just to hear a voice other than mine because I can't bear to hear the cold truth running through my mind. Because everything I did wrong just keeps hunting me, it won't let me be. Lying here without you, girl, I'm starting to see why you gave up on me. ~~~

-Blake Shelton-

I stirred in my sleep when I felt the side of my bed dip due to someone who sat on it. I smelled a familiar scent of cologne before I felt someone kiss me on the forehead.

"Hmm..." I wanted to open my eyes, but I can still feel my body soar from yesterday's activities.

"Good morning, beautiful." That, someone, whispered in my ear and I smiled.

If only New York was just a few minutes of drive to San Francisco, I'd think that someone is David. But I know it's not, so I'd just push that thought behind my mind and turn back to sleep. We just had a short conversation yesterday and he didn't tell me anything about it.

"Hey, babe, are you just going to sleep?"

But when I heard his voice again, I suddenly became confused if it was just my imagination hearing his voice or it was really him. He's here in San Francisco, in my room and sitting on the side of the bed right behind me.

"Babe, the weather is nice outside, we can have some outdoor activities. But before that, I'm really expecting to receive a kiss from you."

"Huh!" And that's when I forced to open my eyes and turned around behind me. And there I saw David having the widest smile on his lips.

"Hi, gorgeous."

"David?" I asked as I blinked several times to make sure I wasn't just playing by my own eyes.

"Good morning."

But when he gave me a sweet kiss on the lips, I realized it wasn't just a dream and he's real.

"Oh, my God, babe!" He chuckled and held me close to him when I got up and lunged myself at him.

"Were you surprised to see me?" He asked between his laugh and I immediately freed myself from his embrace.

"Wait! When did you come here? When did you arrive and why didn't you tell me you're coming?" And I remembered how he got into my room. "Oh, my God! How did you enter my room---"

"Hey, babe, calm down and just ask me one at a time. I promise to answer all your questions, but please give me a welcome kiss first."

I didn't wait for any seconds and I kissed him on the lips. I felt comfortable when he's around. More than a boyfriend, he seemed to be a male best friend to me.

"Okay." He said nodding after the kiss. "Now, I'll answer your question one by one, but I'll the rest for the tomorrow and for the rest of the week."

I frowned. "For the rest of the week? You mean..."

"Hmhm, because I'll be staying here for a week."

"Whoa!" I couldn't help but hug him again. "Why didn't you tell me you're coming? You sent me a message yesterday and you said---"

"And I said you'll see me in one of these days."

I looked at him and waited for the rest of his story.
