CHAPTER 57
AMY’S POV
I stepped off the plane and headed to the baggage claim area, feeling excited and nervous at the same time. I was in England to meet my fiancé, Jayden, to discuss wedding venues for our upcoming nuptials. I wanted to have the wedding in England but Jayden’s parents wanted a feel of New York. I was looking forward to this trip for weeks, and I was eager to get started with our wedding preparations.
As I exited the airport, I hailed a cab and headed towards Jayden’s place. It was their family house and I was anxious to see him and to start discussing our wedding arrangements. When I arrived at his apartment, I walked up to the door and knocked.
To my surprise, the person who opened the door was not Jayden. It was James.
I blinked twice to be sure my mind was not playing tricks on me. I couldn’t help but notice how different he looked from the last time I saw him. His hair was neatly trimmed, and he wore a black shirt and a pair of fitted jeans that hugged his muscular thighs. He had a leather jacket hanging from his arm, and his shoes were shiny and new.
I couldn’t deny that he looked good, but at the same time, I felt a sense of anger and confusion welling up inside me. Why was he here? And why did he look like he was trying to impress me? I tried to push aside my conflicting emotions and concentrate on his appearance.
As my eyes moved up from his feet, I noticed a silver chain hanging from his neck, and his hands were adorned with a leather bracelet and a silver watch. His face was clean-shaven, and he had a small earring on his left ear. He had a slight tan on his skin, which contrasted nicely with his dark hair.
I couldn’t help but notice how James’s outfit was simple yet fashionable. He looked like he had put some thought into his appearance, and it made me wonder why he had bothered to dress up to meet Jayden. I has mixed feelings of anger, confusion, and curiosity. I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was going on between him and Jayden, but at the same time, I couldn’t deny that he looked good.
“What are you doing here?” I asked him, my voice trembling with anger and confusion.
“I could ask you the same question,” James replied calmly, although I could tell that he was taken aback by my sudden presence.
“Where’s Jayden?” I asked, trying to maintain a calm tone.
“He’s at work. He’ll be back soon,” James replied coldly.
We stood in silence for a few moments until James spoke up again. “Why don’t you come in and wait for Jayden? We can talk more about everything then.”
I hesitated for a moment but then decided to enter. As I sat down on the couch, I couldn’t help but feel uneasy. I had a million questions running through my head, and I didn’t know if I was ready to hear the answers.
“So, what brings you to England?” James asked, trying to break the silence.
“I came to discuss wedding venues with Jayden,” I replied, trying to keep my voice steady.
“That’s exciting,” he said, trying to sound enthusiastic.
I looked around the apartment, searching for any clues that might explain James’s presence. And then I noticed the framed photo on the table. It was a picture of Jayden and James, grinning at the camera with their arms around each other.
“What is this?” I demanded, picking up the photo.
“It’s a photo of me and Jayden,” James said, his voice tight with apprehension.
“Why do you have a photo of you and Jayden?” I asked, feeling my anger and confusion intensifying by the minute.
“Jayden is my friend,” James explained. “We’ve been living together for a few weeks now.”
I was stunned. I couldn’t believe that Jayden had kept this from me. It made me wonder what else he was hiding from me.
“So, you’re telling me that you and Jayden are living together?” I asked, trying to make sense of everything.
James nodded. “Yes, we are. But it’s not what you think. I’m just here trying to find you and make things right between us. As a matter I was about stepping out to look for you.”
The confusion on my face was eminent and I was certain James could read that. We were childhood friend before we became exes after all.
“Jayden and I are friends. Remember Tom? He is Tom’s cousin and he was kind enough to let me crash here while I’m in town.”
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. My fiancé, Jayden and James together. My mind started to race, and I couldn’t help but feel like something fishy was going on.
“Where is Jayden?” I asked, trying to regain my composure.
“He’s at work,” James replied, sensing my frustration. “Is everything okay? You seem upset.”
“I am upset,” I exclaimed, unable to hide my anger any longer. “Why wouldn’t Jayden tell me that you were living here? It feels like you two are trying to use me for something.”
James’s face softened, and I could tell that he was genuinely concerned. “Amy, I promise you that this is just a coincidence. Jayden didn’t tell you about me because he didn’t think it was a big deal. Heck, I don’t even think he knows about me so please, reduce your voice. This neighborhood is kind of sensitive.”
I took a deep breath and tried to calm down. Maybe James was right. Maybe this was just a coincidence. But I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off. I felt like I was being lied to, and I was starting to get angry. “This is ridiculous. I can’t believe you’re living here and Jayden never told me about it. Is this some sort of plan between you two to use me?”
James looked hurt by my accusation. “No, Amy. It’s not like that. I moved here like two weeks ago, and I had no idea Jayden was your fiancé until now.”
I could see the sincerity in his eyes, but I was still skeptical. “I don’t know what to believe anymore. This is all too much for me to handle right now.”
“I don’t know anymore, James. I feel like everything is a lie.”
James looked at me sympathetically. “I understand why you feel that way, but please believe me when I say that I had no idea about Jayden until recently. And I would never try to use you, Amy. You mean too much to me.”
I was skeptical. It all seemed too convenient, too contrived. Was this some sort of plan between Jayden and James to use me for their own purposes? I couldn’t help but feel angry and confused.
“I don’t know what to believe,” I said, my voice trembling with emotion. “I came here to meet Jayden, and now I find you living with him. It all seems so strange.”
“I know it does,” James said. “But I promise you, I’m not trying to use you or manipulate you. I just want to talk to you and try to make things right between us.”
I wasn’t sure what to do. My head was spinning with confusion and doubt. But I knew that I couldn’t make any decisions without talking to Jayden first. I decided to wait for him to return from work before making any judgments.
“I need to talk to Jayden about this,” I said, my voice firm. “Can you give me his work number?”
James nodded and handed me Jayden’s number. I took it and made my way out of the apartment, feeling more confused and angry than ever before.
As I walked down the street, I couldn’t help but think about James and his relationship with Jayden. They were friends, but how well did I really know Jayden? Did he have something to do with James coming to England? The doubts and questions raced through my mind, leaving me feeling more uncertain than ever about my relationship.
When I finally got a hold of Jayden, he apologized for not telling me about James, he seems confused as to why I was making a big deal out of it but he assured me that there was nothing going on between them. He explained that James was going through a tough time and needed a place to stay. He promised to talk to me more about it when he got home from work.
But even after talking to Jayden, I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off. As the days went by, I couldn’t stop thinking about James and his connection to my fiancé. It was as if he was haunting me, reminding me of the doubts and insecurities that had been brewing in my mind….
