"Sh-Shannon?" I stuttered nervously. I couldn't believe my ears. My dead heart fluttered, soared. Her beautiful, gorgeous voice filled my ears.
"Oh Adrien!" She gushed happily. " Is it really you?"
"I- yes." I couldn't manage to make anger fill my voice. I had missed her so much. More than I had ever realized. And for a moment, I had forgotten the whole Bella situation. "Where are you?" I whispered into the receiver, hoping that she was somewhere in the vicinity.
"I'm actually in
Seattle, right near you." Shannon said happily. I smiled to myself.
"Can we meet somewhere?"
"I'm staying at the Hyatt. Just stop on by. It's room 212." I hung up the phone and sped towards the highway that Bella and I had passed when we had first arrived here. Bella, I'd forgotten all about her. Maybe this was happening at the right time. I mean, now she had someone and so did I. Well, not really. But I would beg Shannon to take me back. I would do anything. For once, I realized that for all this time, I had still loved Shannon. Even when I was "in love" with Bella. Knowing this had taken away some of the pain of being cheated on. I drove slower, realizing that I didn't even know what to say to Shannon, "Where the hell have you been all these years?" didn't exactly cut it. My time was up though, the Hyatt loomed overhead.
I nervously played with my thumbs as the elevator slowly went up to the second floor. It was as if it was mocking me, telling me to run while I had the chance. But there was no way that that was going to happen. I rapped my knuckles gently on the door of room 212. The door flew open and the most beautiful vampire I had ever seen stood there beaming at me. Her long black hair was pulled into a ballet bun and the skinny jeans she was wearing hugged every curve. Finally everything was pulled together with a black tunic thing.
"Adrien!" Her thin arms wrapped around my neck as I unsurely wrapped mine around her tiny waist.
"Hey Shannon." Shannon dragged me into the room by the hand and we sat down on the plush white coach. "So umm." I bit my lip, a habit of Bella's. "It's nice to see you and all, but what are you doing here?" It was better to get right to the point, instead of beating around the bush.
Her eyes turned as round as saucers and she finally let out a laugh. "I…" Shannon looked down at the floor, her eyes fixed on the oriental rug. "It's stupid really."
"Go on." I murmured, gently moving a strand of her hair out of the way.
"I-I don't want this to sound stackerish, but I was tracking you." My eyebrows rose to form. "The truth is Adrien. I still love you, I've always loved you." Her body began to shake with dry sobs, I pulled her closer to my body, keeping her in a tight hug,. "But you love her." My mouth dropped in surprise.
