Jaelyn's POV

' What on earth just happened now ' I was standing there as Xander left the place. I felt someone watching us but I just ignored the feeling. Soon I heard someone clearing his throat. I turned around and saw Hazi with all his glory.

" Hazi.. How..  I mean .. What are you doing here?" I asked him. I was truly surprised and happy to see him. He looked worried. I could see it in his green eyes. Usually it shines like an emerald but today it was blank. Before I could ask him about why he looks worried, he did something. Something that made my heart to skip a beat. He pulled me into a hug.

' I'm not dreaming right ? ' I asked to myself.

Then I heard him whisper in my ears
" Please..  I need this " I just understood that something bothered him. I just hugged him back. I felt safe in his arms. We broke our hugs when we heard a cellphone ringing.

" I.. I need to take this " I said. He just gave me a nod with a smile. It's the florist. I agreed to meet her by 8:30pm.

" Hello Mrs Bloomwood. Yeah.. I'll be there in few minutes. Bye. " I just cut the call.

He gave me a questioning look. I just let out a nervous laugh.
" It's Mrs. Bloomwood. She is the florist for the engagement party. I have to meet her. "

" Ok .. Where is her flower shop? " He asked me.

" Three blocks from here. " I said.

" Ok.. I'll drop you. come " he said taking my hand. My heart started to beat faster.

" No.. It will take a small walk from here." I said without breaking our eye contact.

" Okay . Come let's go then...  " He stated.

" You want to accompany me ? " I asked him again.

" Yup.. " that's all he said and dragged me out from the parking lot. We started to walk in the direction of the shop. He looked like having some serious conversation with in him.

" Is something bothering you? Are you ok ? " I asked him. He turned towards me and gave a small smile.

" Yeah.. Can I ask you something "

" Sure " I said.

" Ummm.. who is Jaden? " He asked me with curiosity.

I let out a chuckle. " Jaden is my friend from Sydney. He is one of the partners in my business. I'm sorry for that day in the club. I .. It's always Jaden's Job to drop us home after drinking. That's why I called his name. "

" Oh.." That's all he could say back. But he looked kinda relieved.

" So why were you in Cozmo " I asked him.

" Business.. what about you ? " He asked me back.

" Came to meet a friend " I said.

' Please don't ask me for further details '

" Friend .. From New York? " He asked me.

" No.. Someone I know from my University. He is from Melbourne. Came to Newyork for business. So it's .. I mean it's like meeting a friend after a long time. You know .. we catch up with friends when we are in same place at same time.. yeah .. something like that." I started to prattle.

" You came for a coffee with your old friend " He asked me with a smirk .

" Puff... Yeah .. yeah something like that " I replied him by letting out my breath which I didn't know that I was holding for a long time.

He smiled back and said " Relax.. So Here we are -  Bloom Couture " looking at the sign board . 

" Yeah
