Chapter Three: Two Years

It’s been two years been since I have been in this city. My plane just has touchdown in Chicago. I have been relaxing for hours in first class.

I’m here to go a book signing. I finally got enough motivation to finish my fourth and fifth book. The fifth one was just release weeks ago and it was already making the money.

Katie edited it and made sure I finished in my newly formed deadlines that were set up after I was in Chicago two year ago. The time I was there was short but it gave me some closure.

I’m greeted by Katie as I get off the plane. We go inside the publisher’s limo and we have our normal small talk. Since the time I visited Chicago, we talked, actually a lot. We were very close friends now and she was the main reason I was able to push out two more books.

We go to the book signing at some famous bookstore in downtown Chicago. It’s very uneventful. Next up is a publisher’s party to promote the newest book to rich and famous. I have had two of these before but normally they are boring. I change into a black suit with a red tie. I look pretty sharp. I go outside Katie’s room to wait for her to change so we can head over the party together. She may solve some of the boredom there. She comes out in a stunning blue cocktail dress. It’s familiar. As I look more at it, I can see it’s the one Rose had. For some reason, it doesn’t bother me.

We head to the party and have a semi good time. It ends and we both head back to the hotel. I walk her to her room. She is actually living here too because she has to travel between here and Colorado to make sure I’m meeting my deadlines.

She opens her door and turns to me.

“You should come in for a bit and relax.”

“It’s late; I think we should just sleep. We have more a*s kissing to do tomorrow.”

She seems disappointed. “Well goodnight.”

“Goodnight.”

I walk to my room two doors down. I go inside and start to get undressed. About three minutes later I hear a knock at my door. Shirtless, I answer the door. Katie is there. She walks towards me and plants her lips on mine.

She pushes me into the room and she uses her leg to close the door behind her. We struggle to hold our urge back. I lead her to the bed and lay her on it. I slide off her dress which I had done to that dress before with Rose.

I get on top of her and kiss her check. Next her neck and then just on top of her breast. I hesitate and stop. She notices.

“She would have wanted you to move on and be happy.”

I give up on hesitating and do what I have wanted to do with someone for so long.

We embrace each other like beasts and we both are now happy

I like this... his life seems to be getting in order again. I agree with Ashley below, I think that last line could use more romance to it, maybe: We embrace each other happily. Just a idea. I like this chapter though.

Corrections if you like:
In this line you have the word 'been' twice... the second 'been' can be deleted:
"It’s been two years been since I have been in this city."
In this line, add another 'to' after go:
"I’m here to go a book signing. "
release should be released if your talking past tense:
" I finally got enough motivation to finish my fourth and fifth book. The fifth one was just release "

Two years seems a tad long. However, i did enjoy them hooking up at the end. But i do not like the last sentence. You should edit it and make it sexy! lol
