Hey guys, I just got home and I wanted to give you something.
Don't own Hoa or letters to Juliet
Nina's POV
"I-I didn't get published." I said to Fabian.
He gave me a look of utter surprise.
"Hey Nina!" Jerome shouted, "Congrats on the article I read it it's amazing."
I smacked my palm to my forehead.
"So you were saying?" Fabian said smiling.
GOD, THAT SMILE!
I turned around and walked back to the table. I mean what else was there to do? Show him the article! I took it out of my bag.
But, Fabian will never be my second choice. He was always my first. I was just scared like Trudy was.
Trudy and Ade proposed a toast, and Trudy stood up.
"I would like to start by saying thank you to the angel that brought me here. Nina Martin. She responded to a letter lost in time, and I would like to ask her if I could read it out loud."
I nodded to her and she continued, "Dear Trudy, I found your letter today. I want you to know that I completely understand why you ran. You were scared. But, now I think that you deserve an answer. What and If, are two word as non- threatening as words can be. But put them together and they have the power to haunt you for the rest of your life. What if? What if? What if? I don't know how your story ended, but if what you felt then was true love, then it's never too late. If it was true then why wouldn't it be true now? You need only the courage to follow your heart. I don't know what a love like Juliet's feels like, a love to leave loved ones for, a love to cross oceans for. But I hope that if I did feel it I would never, ever let it slip away. And if Trudy if you did, I hope one day you will go back for it. All my love, Juliet."
The entire time I was looking at Fabian. Who was looking from me to Trudy. Joy was next to him, followed by a man who I presumed was a family member.
Another man came up to me, with blonde hair and blue eyes.
"Hello." I said.
"Hey, I'm Mick Campbell. And you're Nina Martin, the girl who wrote that letter and the girl who was crying long before the ceremony started."
"So, you're a friend of Trudy's?" I asked avoiding the subject.
"I'm Fabian's best mate. Surely he told you about me! The more good looking, sporty one?"
"Alright leave her alone Mick." Fabian said.
"NO! I was just about to go find Alfie!" Mick whined.
Fabian's POV
"Just go away." I said, "Sorry Nina."
But she was gone. I looked at Amber, she pointed to her, running away.
I chased after her, to where she had gone.
It was a small area with no way out unless you turn around. But she had magically disappeared.
"Fabian?" I heard her say.
I turned around to see her on, none other than, a balcony.
"Seriously?" I asked, "Why are you crying?"
"I know this shouldn't mean anything to you but… I love you." She said.
Nina's POV
I said it! DAMN IT!
"But, you're hear with Joy, so you could just walk away now." I said turning around.
"Joy is my sister!" he said, "My MARRIED sister!"
"That's just creepy!" I laughed.
"What- huh… ugh! NO! NO! NO! You have it all wrong! That's not the Joy I dated!" he shouted.
"OH." She said.
"Nina, you asked me once if I believed in fate. But, I answered that I never really thought about it. That was a lie! I thought that I couldn't trust fate for doing what it did to my parents. But I realized that I believe in fate because… Nina you are my fate."
I was blubbering like an idiot. I was leaning over the balcony, but I must have leaned too far because the next thing I knew I was plummeting to the ground.
But, luckily Fabian's arms were there to catch me. Although we both fell to the ground.
"Are you alright?" Fabian asked. As I lay there on the ground, he sat looking over me I couldn't have been happier.
I nodded.
"God, your arm." He said. I hadn't noticed. It was bleeding, pretty bad.
"It'll be fine." I told him.
"I'm the doctor! Let me do the diagnosis!" he whined.
"Just kiss me." I told him.
He lifted my neck and I wrapped my arms around his neck. I smiled against his lips. Our first kiss. His lips moved in sync with mine, a perfect fit.
"True love exists Nina, you're my true love." He said, "And Nina, I love you too."
We broke apart and realized that everyone was watching us.
"Nina! What happened to your arm?" Amber yelled.
"I'm fine." I said.
"Stop being so stubborn." Fabian smiled, "Let me take you inside, and clean you up."
I nodded.
He took me to his room, where he had a bag full of first aid supplies.
"You bring that with you everywhere?" I asked.
"Ha ha." He said.
He grabbed a bottle of disinfectant, cotton balls, and bandages and pulled me into the bathroom.
As he got everything sorted out he asked, "Why didn't you want me to see the article?"
"You'll know when you read it." I said simply.
"Okay, give me your arm." He told me. I held my arm out to him and he ran it under cold water. My guess was to get the dirt out. Then he took one of the cotton balls and put the disinfectant on it. The second it touch the cut I screamed, "OW! That stings!" and pulled my arm from his grasp.
"Nina, you have to trust me. It was covered in dirt!" he yelled.
I reluctantly stuck my arm back out at him. He touched the cut again, and I hissed in pain and tried to pull away again, but he had a strong grip.
"You wanna sit down?" he asked.
"Yes please." I said. I sat on the stool in the bathroom and Fabian crouched in front of me.
Every time he touched that stupid cotton ball on my stupid cut, I attempted to pull away. Wouldn't work. He looked at me, smiled and shook his head laughing.
"What? Oww!" I said.
"You are worse than the kids I do this too." He laughed.
"Well, excuse me I didn't know it was gonna hurt!" I shouted.
"What did you expect? I would kiss it and everything would be okay?" he laughed.
"That would have been better." I said.
"Okay, the worst is over, now I just need to get the needle for the stitches…" he said.
"WHAT!" I shouted.
"I'm kidding," Fabian laughed.
"FABIAN!" I shouted, pushing his shoulder, "You scared me!"
"Yeah, that was my intention!" he laughed.
He put a bandage on the cut and we went back outside.
"I love you." He whispered.
"I love you too." I whispered back.
This was just the beginning.
Okay, yes that was the letter from the movie, well most of it. No, this isn't the last chappy. And yes, there will be a sequel. Thank you!
