Chapter 3

Katie dropped Jacob off at daycare, and she was so upset she has never seen him so down. She was feeling the same, she just had to try , and cheer up Jacob, but she didn't succeed in doing it. She went to Al's diner for a coffee, and she went inside. She ordered a coffee, and sat at a table, and noticed Luke sitting alone reading a book. She knew she should mind her own business, but she wanted to let Luke know how she felt. She got up walking over to his table. Luke put his book down, and smiled.

"Hey Katie how are you"?

"Luke Snyder you are a fool"

"Excuse me, why are you being so rude"?

"Reid has left town, are you happy now? I guess you are because you didn't even try to stop him. You love Noah, but God you could have had someone so amazing. I know this is none of my business, but I'm so angry right now, and I have to tell you how much I hate you right now"

"Why is he leaving town"?

"You got a text, he can't take seeing you , and Noah together. He feels like a fool, you could have replied, and made up a lie, but no you didn't even reply to his message"

"I don't know what your talking about, I didn't get no message"

"Yes you did 4 days ago, I know Reid told you not to reply, but you could have said something"

"4 days ago, I didn't get a message, God that is the day Noah took my phone by mistake"

"Oh Luke enough with the lies"

"I'm not he grabbed my phone, but when I checked my messages that night there was nothing from Reid"

"Well I guess your boyfriend deleted it"

"He is not my boyfriend we broke up 2 days ago"

"You, and Noah are no longer together"?

"No but I didn't go to Reid because he said he was so over me"

"God he is going to board a plane, and your single, this is crazy"

Luke jumped up throwing money down on the table, and he asked Katie to come with him to the airport. She was happy to they both ran out, and ran to Luke's car hoping it wasn't to late.

At the Airport

Reid checked his bags, and went through customs, and went to the store to get some magazines, gum, and a pop. He sat on the bench, and was flipping through some magazines. He couldn't' concentrate he just wanted to leave Oakdale. It looked at his watch they should board in 40 minutes, it couldn't be soon enough. He shut his eyes, and thought about Luke, he put his hands over his face, he had it bad, it wasn't like him to fall for someone like this. He knew Luke was the one, but he was such a fool to think Luke felt the same way. He got up, he couldn't stand waiting, he couldn't stand the thought of leaving Katie, and Jacob the only family he had, but he couldn't see Luke day in and day out happy. He knew he would hate him, but if he left he could move on with his life, and hopefully someday he will find someone special. He knew he would never love anyone the way he loved Luke, but that was in his past, and he knew he had to move on or it would destroy him.
