I Choose You
Chapter 1
Hamilton's POV
The day started normally enough. I woke up, ate breakfast, took a shower and got dressed. I even combed my hair, did I mention I can't stand combing my hair, I just let it go, but tonight was special. Tonight, I would see her again.
Amy and I hadn't seen each other ever since the clue hunt had ended, mostly because it brought up our losses, I had lost Reagan and she had lost Uncle Alastair and Natalie Cobra. I knew she didn't really like Natalie, but I guess she felt a little guilty.
They had been killed in an explosion in an abandoned mine we were exploring for the next clue. We ended up getting the clue but we paid the price with their lives. I still remember the way Reagan looked at with me for the last time. Her eyes were filled with worry and sadness, as if she were excepting death to come strolling around the corner. I hated seeing her look so helpless, like a wounded puppy dog lying on the side of the road. But that was a long time ago, I'm now 22 and she's 20.
I was looking forward to having dinner with her, I remember the way she used to have that cute stutter, but she must have lost it since I heard her on the phone. Suddenly, the phone went off.
"Hello," I answered.
"Hamilton!" Dan cried. "We have to talk."
"About what?" I asked sincerely, the little tyke had grown on me.
"Amy," he said simply, "who else?"
"What about her?" I asked.
"Are you guys like going out now?" he asked bluntly.
"Dan!" I said, "We're only getting dinner."
"Good, I just had to check," He explained.
"Why, what did you think we we're doing?" I asked, blushing just a little.
"Oh, um, nothing," he stammered.
"Okay, bye now," I said.
"Bye," he said quickly.
Ugh, I thought, 6:30, still two and a half hours to go.
