Sorry this chapter's a bit short. But I'm still trying to figure out where to go from here. I want to make some connects back to the book though so stick around?
Isabelle:
Isabelle's violent shakes stopped for a minute. "Because I love you," he repeated, taking her hand to his chest. "I know this heart can't beat anymore, but sometimes I'm not so sure. Y'know why? Because whenever I see you, whenever I'm near you, I can feel it fluttering within me." He gave her a genuine grin, making her heart skip a beat. He said it…
But he can't….
"You can't." she mumbled.
Simon:
"Why not?" he was confused. Why did she invite him here if she can't let him love her. It frustrated him, but then again it was something that was a part of her and he accepts that.
"I don't know how this works," she explained lamely. He took her hand, and held on. She was about to take her hand back when he got up, bringing her with him. "We'll clean this up first and then I'll show you how this works. Promise." He had a big grin on his face. He was determined to win her back. And now that he knows he has a chance, he has to make this right.
Isabelle:
"Why are we here, Simon?" She asked. They were at the top of the statue of liberty. This is where she fell in love with him. The place that got her confused about Simon and her own feelings. She hated this place. It brought too many unresolved things in her. "Just trust me," He took out his phone and played an old song she didn't recognize. He extended his hand to her and they slow danced till dawn.
Who is this man? She thought. This guy that can leave me breathless and all warm inside. The one that can lift me off my feet? Who is he? And why does he mean the world to me? She didn't know the answers but as the sun rose, something within her felt at peace.
"You're crazy, but I'm glad I have this moment with you," Izzy whispered. She could feel exhaustion beginning to consume her but she didn't want this to end. It's so weird, this feeling she has for Simon. It drives her mad, but now she finally understood all those happy endings in those romance books and movies. Can this be my happy ending? She thought.
