He stood in front of me, held my face between his hands and stared down at me.I waited, once again, I did.For what? This time I didn't know.But the moment he spoke, I knew, the wait was over."You waited." He said.I gasped." You waited." He breathed.
Chapter 1
Chapter 1
I sat crossed legged on the couch, my Kenny G CD playing soft and soothingly in the background.
Book in hand and my relaxing on the couch, I waited, like every other night for him, Keith, my husband.
You see we've been married for 2 years now, and one would think I'd grow tired of waiting for him, doing the same thing, just for him to make little to no acknowledgement of my existence. But no, the hope of that One day, still lies within .
Keith Salvatore is a 26 year old, successful CEO and owner of Salvatore Enterprises and other ventures, good looking , talented and who's presence is filled with authority and a bit of mystery. He's the type of person who works well under pressure, never rash with his decisions and has a way of getting his word across with the simplest of words.
Being as straight forward and blunt sometimes, I found myself hearing him the first time we met, without much further explanation of what he wanted and needed. Though our marriage was not of love, with him ignoring me most of the time, never really showing me around like most husbands do with their wives.
Even then, he has given me full reign of being a wife, he never pressures me into doing anything, he respects me enough to never cheat on me, well that's what I believe, he provides for me and I live comfortably. The last( even though it may hurt me, I'll let it be), if he ever meets someone who captures his heart, he'll tell me before pursuing anything deeper.
I'd rather know then be given the element of surprise, where I never gave myself time to prepare.
In this wait of mine, I hold on to all hope I have in me, to not surround myself with doubt and believe that one day, shall come.
The opening of the front door, has me perking up to look towards the living room entrance, awaiting him to pass by.
His footsteps sound along the tiled floor, nearing to the living room until I see him about to pass the living room and head towards the stairs. Before I can say anything, I notice him stop in his tracks and turn his head to look towards me.
Not wasting any time , I place my book right on the couch, careful not to miss my place and rise to my feet, I start towards him and hold my breath, hoping he won't just pass me by. I almost sigh out loud in relief when he doesn't and remains where he is.
Being careful to not crowd him and remain a few steps back, I take his whole 6'3 frame all in, from his sleek black hair that looks a bit dishelved, no doubt his fingers running through it. His captivating and beautiful blue eyes, tan , ripped but smooth at the same time skin, pink kissable lips( blushing) and his velvety rich toned voice that both makes me nervous and fills me with butterflies and tingles.
In the two years we've been tied in marriage, I've grown to love him, not just that, but I'm in love with him and I tend to give him all love I can offer.
" Hello." I say, my voice more lower as usual in his presence.
All I receive is a nod, well that's alright.
"Um how was work?" I ask.
"Fine, work was just fine. I'm tired, so I'll just go to bed."
"Um dinner is ready and I'll just heat it up real quick - "I trail off, already starting for the kitchen .
" No I'm not really hungry." He says, already walking away.
"Oh, okay." I say, watching his retreating back before I go back to the living room .
Sitting down, feeling a twinge of disappointment , I try relax and continue with my book, letting the music sooth me just like before, when I was alone.
The sound of something clashing against tile, jolts me awake. Looking around, I see nothing out of the ordinary. Feeling quite exhausted and needing sleep, I rise to my feet and start dragging my body to my room, only to stop in my tracks once I hear noises in the kitchen.
Changing direction and heading towards the kitchen, I stop right at the entrance, making sure to stay out of sight as I watch Keith dig into his food and looking at his face closely, something swirls in my stomach when I see him enjoy the food I made.
Not wanting to disturb him, I leave him be.
A smile decorates my face once I'm settled in bed.

YOU WAITED Chapter 28
Yesterday surely felt like a dream. It was too unreal and right as I stand on the balcony, drinking my coffee just to warm up, because of the cold day, I think back to two years ago.I was still way too young compared to now, maybe a bit naive and hopeful of a better tomorrow, whenever a day became the yesterday.Being married surely changed my life in so many ways, I lived a life of waiting as my heart continued to beat for Keith. I never really opened up myself for people to actually get to know me, therefore I lost myself in everything to do with Keith.The divorce kinda opened my eyes yet still hurting my heart. I reunited with my friend James as well as made new ones, London and Theresa. Living on my own brought me back to when I was knocked into the reality of not having my mother around. Where it was just me and me alone.Yes my heart was breaking but I was starting to make decisions for myself a

I shyly sneak a glance at Keith, whilst he's driving , a blush warms my cheeks at thoughts of what happened at the restaurant, his words, the way he was so gentle with me until now and of course, the awesome cake I can't wait to devour, that's on my lap.Not being able to control myself, I turn my head to really take him in. So many words ring in mind as I stare at him.Handsome, hot, dreamy......I could go on."Stop, that's distracting." He says."But I didn't even do anything." I try suppress a grin." You're staring." " Sorry." I quickly look away, playfully drumming my fingers on the cake box.A hand covers mine. I smile at this. Arriving home, he gets out and comes over to my side, helping me out of the car.Right when I'm out of the car, his jacket is placed over my shoulders, preventing the cold from making me

I'm jolted awake by a noise coming from the door. I don't have time to react when the door is opened and I hear someone enter the room.Good thing my back is facing the person.The bed dips and I hold my breath." Kea, I know you're awake." Joe.I sigh out in relief, glancing over my shoulder at him." Why are you here Joe?" "Joey, I'm here as Joey. Your friend, remember?" I sigh again, rolling over onto my back, turning my head to him. "What's wrong? " " I ruined everything." "And by everything you mean?" "My friendship with Keith, I snapped and basically hinted in me being in love with him. Gosh I feel stupid, feel embarrassed." I groan out, now thinking about earlier."Well it was bound to happen." "What do you mean?" "You've been holding onto

I can't believe I'm doing this. Well I can't believe this is happening, I'm travelling with Keith.When he asked me to accompany him, I wasn't really thinking straight, I was still stunned about what happened with London. Everything after he left and I agreed to go with Keith, became a blur. Now I'm sitting beside Keith, who's busy on his laptop. Probably with work.We're going to the airport right now and I'm nervously excited to go to Aspen. I've never been to Aspen. To add to this excitement, I'm going with Keith. I know he might be busy with work and all but when he's not busy, I'll just have to drag him around and create a little fun for the both of us. You know, creating memories.My mom would be squealing with joy at watching me travel to places. She'd always known that I had a heart for travelling, experiencing new things, learning and storing memories of a life time.I watch curiously as we pas

" Come on, you have to do it sometime today." I say, palm against my cheek." Urgh I can't." He throws his hand up in defeat, slumping against his chair and glaring at the piece of vanilla cake in front of him.I bet he wasn't exaggerating when he said,
