Chapter 11 Wd

• Eddie’s POV
• I stared at the clothes for a while, nervously hoping they would do. As I caught myself straightening another non-existent crease in the shirt I had planned to wear, I chuckled to myself. I had not felt that excited and jittery in so long, specifically six years. The only time I had had such feelings was when Chloe was about to be born. Other than that, my life had been miserably dull and Chloe had been the only light in my dark world.
• But that will soon come to an end, I assured myself. I continued with my task, chuckling occasionally as I thought of Amelia and the way she had acted towards me that day we met. She was just so adorably cute, and the best thing about that is that she did not even know that she was. My chuckles died down as I thought of how beautiful she was now. Amelia had always been beautiful and while we were still in college, she had that subtle pretty girl next door look. But when I saw her in her boss's office, my first thought had been nothing… My mind had literally gone blank. Her shiny, glossy blonde hair had been waist length when we were still in college, but now, she had cut it at shoulder length. Back in college, I had always told her that I loved her hair and so, she shouldn't cut it. Now, I loved her short hair even more. It highlighted her beautifully round jaw and high cheekbones. Amelia was no longer just pretty. She was drop-dead gorgeous. Her curves had only grown more sleek and prominent and her skin glowed with health. I had to fight the urge to get up from where I had been seated and pull her into a tight hug. The very moment she called out my name, I clenched my fists and tried my very best to sound calm and collected. I slowly turned around and drank in her irresistible beauty. The only thing I had felt uncertain about was her eyes. She had dark circles around her eyes and looked extremely fatigued. I hoped it was just for that day because although we had only met again just a few hours ago, she had resumed her place of always constantly being in my mind and making me worry about her.
