Why?????
It had been months since Caitie Roth had even heard from Jamie Waite. Why hasn't he called? She wondered to herself as she got off the plane at JFK airport. She had decided to take matters into her own hands and find Jamie herself. A stupid decision, yes, to go off in New York by herself, but she just had to find him. The airport was bustling with people. Caitie managed to find her way to baggage claim and mad an attempt to find her suitcase. After she made it outside, she pulled up a phone book and tried looking for anyone with the last name "Waite". Lucky for her, one of them was named George Waite, but Caitie knew that couldn't possibly be it since Jamie's father had died many years ago and his name certainly wasn't George. Caitie ripped out the page and circled the address. Christine Waite 341 East 51st Street apt. 2h. "Taxi" Caitie called as she stepped further out onto the sidewalk. I can pull of this New Yorker stuff she thought referring to her ability to yell and be sarcastic as ever. Just gotta put my sarcasm and joyous attitude to some extra use. (ok, I'm not meaning to offend any New Yorkers, its just fiction…one of my friends got a bit attitudal w/ this part) A yellow taxi pulled up next to the sidewalk and Caitie opened the door and hopped in. "341 East 51st Street" she told him
"Yes Ma'am" the driver replied tipping his hat to her in the rearview mirror.
When Caitie reached the apartment building she hopped out with her suitcase in hand and gave the driver the fare.
"thank ya much" he called to her and drove off.
Caitie turned and sighed as she stared up at the tall building.
"Can I help you miss?" a voice asked
Caitie directed her attention to the doorman who looked about 21 years old. "Oh, I was just here to. Uh, see a friend" she replied
"You one of James Waite's friends?" the doorman asked her raising an eyebrow
"Uh, yeah….wait, how'd you know I was one of Jamie's friends?" Caitie asked startled
"Well, lets just say I've heard a lot about you" he replied
"Oh really?" she asked
"Yes ma'am"
"So, he talks about me eh?"
"When's he expecting you" he asked her.
"Oh, well, uh, I didn't exactly tell him I was coming" she replied looking at the ground.
"oh, I see, well apartment 2H. I'd take you up there, but I cant leave the door."
"Oh, that's ok"
"Well, then, hope Jamie doesn't flip out too much" he replied with a smirk.
Caitie laughed at his comment and headed into the building. When she got out of the elevator she noticed a door marked 2H about 3 feet from the elevator door. She put down her suitcase and raised her arm carefully. I hope he's home. And with that last thought she took a deep breath and knocked a few times on the door. The door swung open and there stood a sleepy looking Jamie Waite in dark blue jeans and a white muscle shirt.
"Omigod! Caitie!"
Ok, so how was that??? I know its kinda short, but I just wanted to give ya'll an idea of whats happening. Depending on how much time I have and how many reviews I get, I might get the next part out fairly soon. Please review, even if you think it sucked hardcore. I'd really appreciate feedback.
