Million Miles Away (Pentagon Series Book II)

Ely, Kyle, Johnny & Josh

"He likes you, do you like him?"

"Yeah, I like him." Ely said without a pause.

Kyle felt sad.

"I think he and I can be good friends." Ely adds.

"Friends?" Kyle felt a bit of joy. "And what about me?"

"What about you?"

"What do you think of me?"

"Where is this conversation going?"

"I like you Ely."

Ely lifts her eyebrows 'I like you is the word of the day' she said to herself then she laughs softly.

"Please don't laugh."

"I'm sorry I'm just..." Ely crossed her eyebrows "What's with the "I like you" people seems to utter the words so often."

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean by 'like'?"

"Like the real definition of 'like'?"

"Definition of the word 'like' on preposition, conjunction, noun, adjective or adverb?"

Kyle laughs softly, and then he became serious.

"I'm falling for you Ely."

'Oh my God, this is not happening.' Ely said to herself.

"I know we've known each other recently but..."

"You don't know me that much Kyle."

"I know, and I am willing to know you more, if you would let me."

"Kyle..."

"I'm not rushing you into anything Ely, I just want you to know how I feel and I hope this won't affect our friendship."

Ely was speechless.

"You're not angry right?"

"No I'm not, I'm just surprised."

"I'm sorry."

"You don't have to apologize."

"So...can I court you?"

"I don't think I'm the right girl for you Kyle."

"Why, because you have a child?"

"How did you know that?"

Ely is worried, how many people know she has a kid.

"I came to your house the other day; your kid opened the door for me. Levy, she's beautiful."

"Did you tell anyone about her?"

"I presumed you kept it a secret, so no."

"Can you keep it a secret because..."

"You can count on me Ely, I won't tell a soul."

"Thanks Kyle."

"Don't mention it, but you have to make a deal with me in return."

"What deal?"

"That you will introduced me to Levy as your friend and you will let me visit to your home."

"And why would you like me to do that?" Ely smiled at Kyle.

"I told you, I am going to court you, and I believe I could pay you some respect by courting you at your home and not here on the set."

Ely laughs.

"You really are serious, are you?"

"Yes I am."

"I can't promise you anything Kyle..."

"Like I said, I am not expecting anything from you Ely, just let me show you that my intentions are pure."

"Alright" Ely answered with a sweet smile on her face.

Then Josh entered, he had the angry look on his face. If glared could kill Ely would die in an instant. Then he left without uttering any word.
