Falling in Love-Ch8

I woke up with cold sheets next to me. I turned and looked at the clock on his bedside table. It said 7:02. I pulled the covers from my body, and walked down stairs. When I went into the living room he wasn’t there nor was he in the kitchen. I walked to the island in the kitchen and there was a handwritten note on it.

Kay,
I’m sorry that I’m not here, but I didn’t want to wake you to tell you this. I was called into an a meeting this morning so that I could start back up with my hockey season. I have to go to practice after that. So I should be home around 8. Be ready because remember we still have to go to your parents’ house. I washed your clothes from last night so you could wear them today; they are sitting on the washer. Oh and there is pancakes in the microwave if you are hungry.
Love,
Sidney

I ate my pancakes then grabbed my clothes. I took my shower quickly and then dried my hair the best I could because he didn’t have a blow dryer. I slipped into my clothes and brushed my hair out a little more. I walked downstairs and looked at the clock again. It read 8:03. He was late. It didn’t bother me though. It was his first time getting back to the ice in a couple of days so I figured he want to hang out a bit. I sat down on his couch and switched the TV on. I heard the garage down open and seconds later Sidney’s door shut. He opened the door leading into the kitchen. I jumped of the couch and jumped into him. He caught me with on hand the other holding his hockey bag. He dropped his bag and embraced me tighter. He kissed me hard before pulling away.
“You ready?” he asked walking towards the stairs.
“Yea you?” I said.
“Give me five minutes.” He said walking up the stairs and toward to the bathroom. I figured he had to take a shower so I slumped back down into the couch. In exactly five minutes Sidney came walking down the stairs smelling wonderful.
“You ready now?” I asked walking towards the garage door.
“Yep.” He said putting his arm around my waist. I opened the door to find a Lamborghini parked in the garage.
“This is yours.” I said eyes about to pop out of my head.
“Yes. Hop in.” He said his goofy grin appearing on his face. I did as he told me to. After about five minutes of arguing on which way to turn, although it was my house we were going to, we finally arrived. I walked over to the mat in front of the house door and lifted it up. I pulled the keys out from under it and opened the door. I set the keys on the key ring near the door then bolted up stairs.
“Make yourself at home. I’ll be back with my stuff in a minute or two.” I screamed down at him. I walked into to my room. It looked the same as I left it. Bed unmade, clothes and papers throw everywhere. I found my back suitcase lying in my closet and started stuffing my clothes in it. A minute later and that suitcase was full to the rim. I grabbed a duffle bag from my closet and stuffed it with my make-up and other bathroom stuff. Then with the remainder space in the duffle bag I put my jewelry.
“Sid?” I yelled for him.
“Yep.” He yelled right back.
“Will you come here and help me with this?” I said softer hearing his footsteps coming up the stairs. He was there in a couple of seconds. Sidney walked over to my suitcase and lifted it up.
“Lord! What is in this thing?” He said pretending the weight was overbearing.
“Just a couple of pounds of metal. You know the usual.” I said laughing.
“So I’m guessing we don’t have to go buy you any clothes.” He said lugging the bag down the hall. I looked at my now empty room and sighed. I need to leave the hurtful memories behind and that’s what I did.“You guessed right.” I said pulling the duffle bag over my shoulder and hauled in downstairs.
