Holding On.
.♥chapter 5.
* One month earlier.*
"Well, this is our city home." Declan's mom said, well, I refer to her as Jackie, and his dad David.
"It's absolutely stunning." I said practically speechless while walking in the large foyer. The walls were a royal blue, and the hallway lead to a large living space with matching black and white couches. The t.v was gigantic, and in High definition. I was jealous.
"Mom, you don't need to show it off. She's not staying here just to see our vacation home." Declan laughed.
"No no, it's fine. I don't think of it as showing off, I think of it as impressing their favorite person." I winked.
He smiled at me.
"Alright, well it's been a long drive and we don't want to be cranky tomorrow so don't stay up too late. Declan, show Noel to the guest room."
"My pleasure." He grabbed my suitcase and started walking up the staircase.
"This is truly amazing. How do you afford this?" I asked trying not to be rude.
"My dad's boss let us keep it. We barely have to pay anything. Well, here is the room."
I was through the doorway into a simply, but nicely decorated room. Everything was spotless. There was a magnificant view of times square. I loved the way there was a rainbow of lights outside the room.
"I am in love with New York City."
I said mezmorized while looking out the window.
"It gets better." He turned me around and looked into my eyes. "Tomorrow, the real adventure begins."
Before I could answer his eyes lit up as he smiled and turned the other direction. He stopped infront of the doorway.
"Goodnight, miss." He said like a proper man.
"Goodnight." I smirked and then looked down at the paper.
The next morning the was shining through the window. There was already the sound of car horns, and it was only around 8.
I heard a knock on the door.
I quickly sat up, fixed my hair as quick as possible and wiped my eyes.
"Come in!" I said.
"Are you ready?" Declan came through.
"Ready... ready for what?"
"Get dressed and come downstairs. My parents made breakfast before they left for the day. Then we're leaving."
"But I.."
"Hurry there's no time to waste!"
"We have 30 days, Declan."
"And we'll only have 29 if you don't get your butt out of bed." He laughed at me and walked down the hallway.
I quickly jumped out of bed, grabbed one of my already made outfits from my suitcase, put on the usual mascara and a little eyeliner, combed my golden hair, and walked downstairs.
"Wow. It smells really good." I said walking towards the kitchen.
I walked into the doorway and saw Declan siting at one end of the table that was covered in various fruits, bacon and pancakes.
"Enjoy." He smiled.
"Oh, I will."
I grabbed 3 small pancakes, a bowl of strawberries and blueberries to put on top, and some syrup.
When I was done eating he quickly put our plates into the sink and grabbed my hand.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"You'll see!"
It was a beautiful day out.
The sun was reflecting just right off of the tall buildings.
We walked for quite a few blocks until a saw a park.
"A park, in a city?" I asked.
"Yes, but you'll love it. I have a secret place I always came as a kid. I'll show you."
He put his hand over my eyes and guided me to a shaded area. When I opened, I realized we were under a giant weeping willow tree. The tree was carved with millions of names and hearts around them.
I slowly moved my eyes to look at Declan, but he was already looking at me. Smiling.
