Okay everyone. Here's the last chapter. I know the ending is nothing grand but don't worry. There will be a sequel.
Chapter 10
Elena eventually leaves the airport and gets a taxi to head home. She eventually realizes that she can’t go home because she has to go to work so she tells the driver the change in destination. Since she knew that she was going to be late for work, she calls her boss letting her know.
“Get here as soon as you can. Our new assistant manager is starting today,” said Elena’s boss.
“You have a new assistant manager already? Wow.”
“Yes I do and you’re going to love him. I know it.”
“Great. See you soon.”
The rest of the cab ride she thought of this new assistant manager. Was she going to love him? Probably not. No one could be better than Jonathan. Once she arrives at her job, she walks into work and punches in for the day.
“Elena, you’re here. Are you ready to meet the new assistant manager?” asked her boss.
“I guess so.”
“Okay he’s right outside. Just close your eyes.”
“Close my eyes? Why?”
“Just do it.”
“Okay.”
Elena closes her eyes and feels someone approaching her very closely.
“Open your eyes now,” her boss said.
When Elena opens her eyes she gets the surprise of her life.
“Jonathan?” Elena asked in shock.
“Yes it’s me.”
“But what are you doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be on a plane to California?”
“I should be but I cancelled my flight.”
“Why?”
“Last night you told me you loved me and I was such an idiot the way I responded to you. I got scared. I’m sorry.”
“Scared? Wait, are you trying to tell me that…”
“Yes Elena. I love you too.”
“You do?”
“Of course. I’ve loved you ever since I first saw you but I couldn’t tell you of my feelings because I was scared. Probably just as scared as you were.”
“Trust me. I was really scared to tell you but I finally was able to do it. I just can’t believe you love me.”
“How can I not love you? You are the most beautiful woman in the world who has such a wonderful heart. I love you more than words can say and I want to be with you.”
“But what about the job in California?”
“I already told them that I couldn’t leave New York. My home and heart are here with you.”
“But what about that wonderful salary you were going to get?”
“You are more important to me than a paycheck.”
“I am?”
“Yes you are.”
“Oh Jonathan, I love you so much.”
“I love you too.”
Jonathan pulls Elena close to him and kisses her with all the passion he has inside of him. Elena passionately kisses him back and they become lost in each other’s worlds. Once they finally pull away from each other,
“Wow. You’re a really good kisser.”
“I was going to say the same about you,” Jonathan laughs.
“Great minds think alike.”
“You got that right. So can I kiss you again?”
“You don’t have to ask.”
The two kiss again.
“So I asked our manager if you and I can have the rest of the day off and she said yes.”
“Really? And why did you do that?”
“So I can take the woman I love on our first date. That is of course if you would like to go on a date with me.”
“Of course I want to go on a date with you.”
“Wonderful. So let’s go then.”
Jonathan takes Elena’s hand and they go to a local restaurant where they have their first date. The two are having a wonderful time on their first date. They are eating, drinking, chatting, and dancing the night away. The two couldn’t be happier. This date would be the first of many dates for the two new lovebirds.
