Chpt. 16

Miami

Melody thought about Cole, all day, as she worked. She still had a feeling that Phoebe wasn't going to give up that easily. On the other hand, she felt closer to Cole and that was the best thing she could ever feel.

The details of last night sent shivers down Melody's spine. Cole had the softest touch. Cole was also a good dancer, thought Melody. She remembered the lyrics of their song.

"How do I live without you?

I want to know.

How do I breathe without you?

If you ever go

How do I ever, ever survive?

How do I, how do I, oh how do I live?"

It was true; she couldn't imagine life without Cole.

When Cole saw Melody, he gave her a kiss. Melody didn't even care that people were watching.

"Are you alright? You're shaking." Cole said.

Melody felt it as well. The moment she feared, Phoebe.

"Cole, I think Phoebe's here." Melody whispered.

"We'll handle it. We have to make her understand." Cole said, as he tried to calm her down.

"But, what if…"

"Shhh, it's going to be okay." Cole soothed.

"Cole, are you coming back with me?" Phoebe asked when she saw them. "I have to leave today, and I came back to take you home."

"What makes you think I'm going back?"

"Because we're meant to be together and we love each other."

"We loved each other and now it's gone." Cole said.

"That's not true, I still love you."

Suddenly, to Cole's surprise, Melody stepped in front of him.

"You should leave Cole alone. He's free of you. He doesn't love you anymore."

"And you can talk?" Phoebe hissed.

"Leave me out of this. He came here, why? Probably for a new start. You had your chance, why did you throw it away?" Melody asked.

"Well I…" Phoebe couldn't finish her sentence. She knew Melody was right. She had her chance and no matter how much she tries to win Cole back, it wouldn't last.

"Melody said exactly what I wanted to say, to you." Cole finally stepped in.

"I guess I shouldn't have let you go in the first place." Phoebe said lowering her head.

"Are you say that you're4 finally moving on?" Cole asked.

"I think I am. I was wrong coming here. I will leave you alone now. I hope you have a happy life, Cole."

Phoebe gave them a half smile then left.

Cole felt his heart beat 10 times faster, than usual. Melody was feeling the same. They went outside, to talk.

"Mel, I'm stunned. You were great."

"I guess I felt what you wanted to say and said it for you." Melody said with a big smile.

"Excuse me Mr. Turner; can I see you for a minute?" Kandie asked.

"I'll be right back, baby." Cole kissed Melody's cheek and waklked back inside, with Kandie.

"What is it?"

"Phoebe wanted to say something to you, before she leaves."

Phoebe stood by the doorway.

"Cole, I have to apologize to you. I was blinded by obsession and jealously. I shouldn't have caused trouble. I guess this will be the last time I'll see you. Hope you have a great life."

"You too."

Cole watched as Phoebe disappeared out the door. Then he went back outside, to where melody was waiting.

"We're free!" he happily exclaimed.

"I was thinking we should go dancing again." Melody said with a cheeky smile.

"I already got a list of songs for the DJ." Cole replied.

"I'm glad Phoebe finally realized that things just won't work the way she wanted then to and moved on." Melody said with a relived sigh.

"Me too, now let's talk about us."

Cole looked into Melody's eyes. He not only saw the light that brought them together, he also saw the light of hope that will keep their love alive, forever.

"I have to go, but when I see you tonight, I'm going to have a surprise, for you." Cole said.

"Ohhh, I love surprises, Mr. Turner."

Cole thought about it so many times he lost count. He only knew Melody a short time but her sparkle had replaced all his doubts and fears, with love. For the first time, in a long while, he will follow his heart.

Sorry it took me so long to update. Hope all of you didn't lose interest in my story. I have one more chapter to go.

Thanks for all your support; it means a lot to me.
