Today has to be the worst day ever. Not only have I lost an important client but also my car broke down in the middle of the road.

Thankfully, the man that come to take my car to the garage offer me a ride to where I'm going. But he left me a block away from the hotel that I have my meeting in it.

Which make me walk the rest of the way to the hotel in my high heels. My hair and dress is fine. Nothing happened to it. But if I know I'm going to walk I would have picked a different one. My feet is killing me.

Although my day so far is bad but I'm still exciting to go to the hotel. I heard many great things about it. And if my meeting today worked the way I wanted I would be planning the first weeding in it.

After recovering slightly from Jack death, I worked in an event-planning company for two years. I put my all in my job from the beginning to start making myself a name in the field.

I worked five years for Stanford's and I learn how to be a successful CEO and how to run my company to the top . However, I realized that I didn't have the connection or the clients or the name in the planning event field so people can come to me. So I went and made to myself a name.

The moment the clients and people came requesting me to planning their event, whatever that is I knew that I should start my own company.

My own business. Events and Weddings planning company. It was full of challenges at first but with my family and friends supports and help, i did it.

The first event I have planned is my friend Emma wedding. Emma had done well for herself after everything that had happened to her. And after so long she decided to listen to her heart and say yes to the man she love. She married Brian Wren who was the head of one of the wealthiest families in New York.

The first call I had made, after starting my own business, had been to Emma. To tell her that I start my company. Her squeal's of pleasure was so loud when I told her. And after she had calm down she told me that she still hold me on my words of planning her weeding.

I put all my heart, soul, and all of my money into it. And thankfully it was a great success that made a real buzz. And from then on I manage to run my business successful to become one of the most impotent companies in the country.

I look up to see that I'm almost there when it start raining. I think I spoke too soon about my dress and hair.

I arrived to the hotel in a huge mess with twenty-five minutes to get ready to my meeting.

"hi, how can I help you?" the girl on the reception hesitates glancing at me up and down

"hi, I want a room just for one night with a wall tall windows" I said looking at my phone frowning

"I'm sorry, all the rooms with a wall tall window is in the top floors. If you like we could get you a room with great view and great price for you,"

I looked up from my phone confused. "What? How....." I begin when someone came to stand beside me

"hello, how can I help you?" she ask him. Totally ignoring me to see what he wants.

Is she for real? I start looking around me shocked when my phone rings for the fourth time since I walk in here

"what? What's wrong?" I whisper- yell angrily

"it's the restaurant we booked for Mr. Dan party," my secretary tell me

"what about it?"

"I just had a meeting with Mr. Dan. He told me that the restaurant had booked another party with us. although it's in different part in the restaurant but when Mrs. Dan found out about it she freak out and told him to find another place or let the others cancel their party and since he can't do that and he don't want to do anything he put this issue on us and told me to find somewhere ales in two days or he will find other company who can." She said in one breath.

"what? What the hell?"

"yes, he is going to announce his engagement in the party and he want it to be perfect and privet, and somewhat like an engagement part but not totally. If that's making any sense,"

"okay. He's a very important much needed client so we cannot lose him. We need to find a place." I look at my watch to find that I have 15 minutes left, "okay listens, I have to go and get ready. Try to find a place that will do and call me," I hung up

"Rose?" I look up to where the voice come from, " oh my god it's you" my friend Jasmine said smiling

"Jasmine! Oh my god. How are you?"

"I'm great. I would totally hug you but you are a mess"

"wow thanks"

"no problem. Did you book a room?"

"no I wanted too but apparently the rooms in this hotel is way out of my league or so I was told," I look at the girl behind the desk rising an eyebrow

"oh, I'm sorry she is new here. She doesn't know you" she narrowing her eyes at the girl telling her to give her the Key.

"what are you....." Jasmine began talking but I stop listen. I feel like someone is watching me but I can't seem to find who it is. I look around me searching but found nothing. Then my eyes made contact with a pair of the most capturing and beautiful blue eyes you could ever see.

Everything Stop

Everything around us stops. Looking at his eyes that I miss so much after so long made all of our memories rush out one after the other. Playing in front of my eyes like a movie. Then one sore memory stood tall between them.

Him telling his new secretary to kike me out because he and I quote "I don't have time to crybaby girls who need someone to hug them and tell them it's going to be okay. I have business and empire to build. Tell her to grow up and suck whatever she going through up. she need to find a job and to work hard like everyone do. We don't get what we want every time. she should get used to it". looking through the glass at me straight in the eyes.

I blink my eyes and glare at him so hard that if stare could kill he will be six feet under right now. My emotions are clear in my eyes. Anger, disappointment, hurt and a lot more that he can see.

"here's the key" I return my attention to Jasmine taking the key from her pretending that I didn't just saw Arrow and caught him staring at me

"can I ask you a favor?" I ask Jasmine

"what is it?"

"I have 17 minutes until my next meeting and to take a shower to get myself out of this mess and make myself presentable again"

"and you don't have anything to wear?"

"yes. Can you go buy me something to wear and bring it to my room?" I handed her my card after she nodded saying yes. I run to the elevator past Arrow who still standing in his place looking at me, up to my room.

After taking my quickest shower ever I start re-doing my make-up. just some mascara and eyeliner with some lip-gloss. That was in my bag. I put my hair in a messy bun because I don't have time hoping that the dress she's buying will work with my hair and black high heels.

Walking out of the bathroom to see a beautiful red dress on the bed. With a note stick to my card beside it. I don't have time left to admire it more or to read the note. So I put the dress on which fit me perfectly and amazingly so, and the note in my bag to read after my meeting. God I look good.

When I go to take my clutch I found a cobalt black flower earrings. That I stop to admire, I can't help it. It look good and it's going to be perfect with the dress. I didn't put earring to my previous dress. I put it on and run out the door to the restaurant to meet with my client.

"Mr. Throe?" I greeted my client. After that, everything runs out smoothly and I get the deal.

I was drinking my wine in peace after Mr. Throe left when my phone ring

"what is it Mia?" I ask my secretary calmly

"I take it we got the deal?"

"yes my lovely Mia" I replay happily.

"well I hope we can find a place in this short notice so it could be a complete happy ending for today"

"did you ask every..." I cut myself off looking around me slowly a smile toke place on my lips that will creep out the people that looking at me.

"don't worry about it. I think I found a place more amazing than the last one. Pray to god it won't be booked," I tell her hanging up while looking around me searching for Jasmine

"excuse me, do you know where can I find the manager here?" I ask some waiter walking past me

"why is something wrong ma'am?"

"oh no. I just want him or her for business"

"HER ma'am. She will be in her office or looking around the logging"

"okay thank you"

I go to see where he pointed her office is when Jasmine come to me smiling.

"damn it look good on you"

"thank you. I really love it"

"the red look good on you"

"yeah...." I tell her remembering when Arrow would always say this to me whenever I wear red. I blink hard to let the memory go away " anyway. I want to see the manager. Do you know where can I find her?"

"you are talking to her baby." She said looking smug and proud

"damn girl good for you. You deserve it."

"thank you. Now what do you want" she said while start walking to her office I believe

"I want to know if the restaurant is booked in a week from now?"

"a week? I don't remember, let me check first" she look in her notebook then shake her head

"is that mean it's not booked?" I asked hopefully

"it's mean which day? Because it's booked on Saturday"

"I want it on Friday from five to one in the morning. I can book it in my name right?"

"okay, let's talk in details over glass of wine I just finish my work"

"okay"

One glass turn to two that turn to five that turn to both of us drunk out of our mind and laughing so hard that we can't seem know how to open my room.

I don't remember much. but what I remember is that someone come and open my door to us and putting us in bed.

After that for the rest of the week I was so busy making calls and planning the party of Mr. Dan that I can't help but be stress about. His wife or soon-to-be-wife is an important woman in our society. Which mean that the entire successful and important people in our society are going to be in this party. And I will be damn if I didn't do everything to get out of this party in more than my payment check from Mr. Dan. If I didn't have more client after it's done then I didn't do my job correctly.

I discovered that this hotel is Arrow's the first time I came here to look around and see the staff. When I saw that, every damn person I go to see from the staff is someone I already know and work with before.

Now I'm standing on the roof of the hotel looking below me at the party. It never stops to amaze me the way you see things from the top. The light and the view are so beautiful from up here. And cold.

I start running my hand up and down on my arms to warm them a little when suddenly a warm jacket put on my shoulder. From the warm that clouded my heart and body and the smell that I memorized by hart because I love it so much, I didn't have to turn to know who this jacket belong to.

"thanks for the dress the other day" I said without turning, "I read the note"

"you are very much welcome. It looked beautiful on you"

"they are in your room by the way"

"I don't care about the dress. I didn't pick it up I just chose the color. What I pick is the earring that you are wearing now."

"I ....." I hesitation and start to turn around when I felt his arms rubbed around me pressing me into his hard chest.

"i know that you will love it. Just as much as I know that you are going to come up here in some point tonight"

"I admit that I like the earring and I didn't get them back not because they are from you but because I like them and I won't give them back. And once someone take a likening to something it become a habit that is hard to stop. I like how I feel when I'm stand like this, I'm not going to stop just because I take this habit from you Arrow. "

"I'm sorry. That came out wrong. I'm not trying to make everything about me here. But you should rest. You have been working very hard the last couple of days"

he turn me around and looking at me with so much love and caring that for a moment I forget everything he said or done to me.

Some of my hair flies in front of my eyes breaking our eye contact, he takes it away and put it behind my ear before I could move, while gazing at my eyes.

"I'm forgetting how beautiful you are from this close. Your hair look and smell nice"

"just stop" after a small time I get back to my mind and push him away so hard so suddenly that it caught him off geared which made him stumble a few steps back. And made the jacket to fall

"Ella ..."

"NO. no Arrow. Can you please stop. Why are you doing this? Why can't you see that you hurt me enough or is that not enough for you?"

"I didn't mean to hurt you...."

"but you did. And you did it looking me in the eye. Look," I point at the party then added "you see this? I make it happened. I should thank you for your advice. I did work hard"

"I'm not going to deny what I said or tell you that I regret it, because I don't. I will explain why I did it one day but not now"

"you are an asshole" I said and try to walk past him to the door but he caught me and pull me to him hard that I trip and fall on his chest.

"I'm sorry" he sigh hugging me to him. then burn his face in my neck breathing in while letting his lips whispering sweet nothing to my neck

"Arrow" I whimper "please let go of me. Stop doing this to me"

"I cant. You know that I don't let anything go if I want it"

"yeah. And look where it left me the last time" I try to move out of his arms but he won't let me. If anything he tighten his arms around me.

"I will explain everything but not now. Now all I want is to hold you"

"no. Arrow no." I break his arms from around me a step back from him. "you can't do that. You can't just do that whenever you want. I'm not your toy. Just when I moved on you com..."

Haven finally

That what I think when his lips touch mine cutting me off. Like haven. He was kissing me. He is kissing me hard. Like he was thirsty and finally he has some water. And I'm kissing him back.

I'm kissing him back

Soon. Too soon the kiss ended but his arms didn't loosen from around my waist. He rests his head on my shoulder.

"god I miss you. I missed you so much"

"why now Arrow? You know what I don't want to hear it. I shouldn't be doing this"

"no. I am not going to let you get away from me this time Ella"

"my name is Rosella" I said pushing him away from me again and taking a step back from him. "I don't want to hear your explaining. It's too late for it. 7 years late to be exact." I walk away to the door when he stop me

"I'm sorry. I will tell you everything. Anything you want to know. Now. Anything. Just don't leave"

"I don't want to know." I turn my back on him and open the door but I couldn't help but added before I left "I wait for you. For months I kept telling myself that you were having some issue or you – I don't know I don't even remember but I know that I kept giving you excuses hoping that one day you are going to walk in my company or my apartment and tell me that you are sorry and to tell me that you didn't mean it"

"I don't. I didn't mean anything I said that day. I can't tell you how hard was to say those thing to you"

"then why ignoring me all this time. In every party we cross path you act like you don't know me. You avoid me like a bug."

"I can explain. I was.."

"I don't care Arrow. The first year I had so much hope. I believed so hard that you are going to come but year after year the hope and believing that I know, become lesser and lesser until there is none and I moved on." I turn to him and looked him straight in the eye" and now I don't care"

That's, there is one of the biggest lies that I ever did.

But he don't have to know that because like I told him I need to move on.
