When The Light Falls - Book 3 by N. Y. (cool books to read .TXT) 📕

with people.

 

Brazil was even more beautiful than I thought.

 

 

''Good morning, or should I say good night. Welcome to Rio, the biggest and most popular place here in Brazil. Be sure to pay attention to futhur instructions, we'll be landing here in 15 minutes.'' says the flight attendent.

 

 

The flight attendent leaves from the speaker as I sit back comfortably.

 

I look into the window again seeing into the lives moving around down there.

 

 

I never knew Brazil would be an amazing place to visit during vacation.

 

 

The cool air of the airport hits me, as I rustle through my backpack for a light sweater.

 

Everyone moves into the airport waiting for Lauren's commands.

 

She pushes past the employees to stand in front of us.

 

 

''Alright everyone, I get that you're tired or may have jet lag. But now we have to take the bus ride to our hotel only 12 miles away. So let's exit, it's outside waiting for us.'' Lauren says quietly.

 

 

Everyone moves into a huddle because of the cold air in the airport.

 

I turn around to see Marybella and Mark arm in arm.

 

Rikki huddles beside me to keep warm.

 

 

I told her earlier how airports can be cold sometimes. Despite the graphic white tee and jean shorts, with sneakers she's wearing.

 

I was a little more colder.

 

 

I changed my clothes on the plane to a pastel mint green dress and sandles. The dress hem ended just before the start of my knees.

 

I wish i'd worn shorts under, but that's too late now.

 

 

Finally we all reach the outside of the airport. The warm outside makes us sigh in relief.

 

I take off my sweater as I look up the lights surrounding the airport.

 

 

We get on the bus and chug our way through the streets, and the busy streets somehow reminded me of New York so much.

 

--

 

 

''Alright everyone, you'll have your luggage given to you by the time you get settled into your rooms.'' Lauren announces

 

 

I went in quick into the hotel to get our room keys. Jacob stayed behind me.

 

We all look in awe of the materpiece design of the hotel.

 

 

The hotel we were staying in had a colorful glass design above us.

 

It was utterly beautiful. Brazil was spoiling us.

 

 

''Welcome to the Partizian Hotel, how may we help you?'' says a receptionist behind the lobby desk.

 

 

He grabs my attention before the others, and I stare at the amazing beauty that is their face.

 

The people here had very attractive faces.

 

 

''Yes, we are signing in under a reserved name.'' I replied.

 

''Which name?''

 

''Woods.'' I said.

 

''I have here a reservation for a Ms. Elle Woods and a Jacob?''

 

''Yes.'' Jacob replies, finally joining me.

 

 

The receptionist types something into the computer.

 

Finally he smiles after finishing.

 

 

''Here are you keys, Mr. and Mrs. Woods.''

 

''Oh no, we're not married.'' I quickly reply.

 

 

The receptionist smiles in politness, then glares at me.

 

I turn to Jacob who's now leaning into me.

 

''We'll just go to our rooms.'' he says pulling me into that direction.

 

 

I failed to mention we were together, but it can happen to anyone.

 

Right?

 

 

I stop Jacob before entering the elevator to go up.

 

''Sorry, I didn't mean to make it seem like we were not together. In front of the receptionist. I-'' i start.

 

''No it's fine, he doesn't know about us. It's none of their business.'' he smiles.

 

''Right.'' I said silently.

 

  

I follow behind Jacob as he held onto the key for our room.

 

It took a minute before we found our room. Only 10 doors down from the nearest elevator. 

 

''Room 396.''

 

 

Jacob unlocks the door and opens it, the room had a deisgnated area from the doorway to the bedroom.

 

Our room was decorated in white and tan furniture. Big enough to fill up the bedroom.

 

 

The bedroom was lovely. All dressed and draped in blues, and whites.

 

Jacob walks in behind me.

 

 

''Wow, this is amazing.'' he replies.

 

''Yeah. Lauren hooked us up.'' I said.

 

 

I hear footsteps near, as I turn to Rikki who walks into our room.

 

She found us stunned by the apperance of our bedroom.

 

 

''I love this hotel. Your room is so boho!'' she said finally looking at me.

 

''What about yours?'' I replied.

 

''Eh. Let's just say that my room has a....waterfull shower.'' Rikki says happily.

 

 

 

I laugh in excitement. She pulls me behind her as I closed the hotel room door along.

 

She leads me 1 floor down to her room.

 

 

''Are you ready?'' she says excidedly.

 

''Yes.'' I reply.

 

 

She anticipates my excitement for a second, and finally opens the door.

 

I'm amazed by how massive the room was.

 

 

There was no living area, but a couch in sight near the bed and bathroom.

 

Lilacs filled the tables surrounding me.

 

 

''This isn't a hotel room, this is a castle dream room.'' I reply smiling.

 

''I know, I asked for the single upgrade.'' Rikki said.

 

 

Lauren's voice rings in the hallways as she comes into Rikki's room.

 

 

''Alright FARELLE workers, get some sleep now. We have a meeting bright in early tomorrow after breakfast. So get your beauty sleep.'' she says.

 

She leaves as I look back to Rikki.

 

 

''So your invisible boyfriend is coming to stay here with you, right?'' I said.

 

Rikki gives me a stern look.

 

''Yes and he's going to be here. Soon.'' she replies angrily.

 

 

''Okay.'' iIreply teasing Rikki.

 

''Don't okay me. Uou and Marybella are gonna be sorry when you see him.'' she replies.

 

I head for the door.

 

I smirk at her. ''We'll see.''

 

 

 

I closed her door behind me quickly then went to the elavator, wating for one to come up.

 

The doors ding then open after a minute or so. I finally get in.

 

I step out of the elevator once it had reached my floor.

 

 

I turn to the hallway approaching my room.

 

 

I see Jacob watching the tv in our room.

 

He looks up to find me, then smiles.

 

 

''Ready to start relaxing?'' he says.

 

I smile back, then sit down next to him on the comfy couch.

 

"Yes," I say.

 

I really needed a break from everything.

 

 

 

The room was nice and warm. There was no breeze or feeling cold.

 

I hop onto the bed, feeling the cotton fabric beneath my skin.

 

  

Finally I settle into a sleeping spot, which was on the right side.

 

 

Several minutes later my eyes get heavy as everything in sight blurs.

 

Then i'm woken up by Jacob, shaking my arm.

 

 

I moan for him to stop but he continues.

 

Finally, I open my eyes, then turn to him.

 

 

''What, what Jacob?'' I say.

 

''Are you gonna sleep in your dress?'' he asks.

 

 

I look down confused. I hadn't changed out of it since our arrival.

 

I rub my eyes and give him a look. 

 

 

''You woke me up to say this?'' I reply, my voice slightly raspy.

 

''Well it's hard to sleep when I have someone so beautiful next to me for a whole week. I'm just looking out for you.'' he replies.

 

 

I turn back to my position from before and I tried to sleep again.

 

 

I close my eyes, but i'm alerted by Jacob's hand wrapping around my waist.

 

He pulls me closer, feeling the heat from his body radiating out to me.

 

 

I could feel and hear his heart beat from my back.

 

I roll my eyes happily, then go back to sleeping.

 

 

He wraps his arms around me, hugging me close to his chest. I turn and take a look at him, as he breaths silently into my shoulder.

 

 

It's gonna be a long week of sleeping like this.

 

That is, if were still in the romantic phase of being together again.

 

But I don't mind.

 

 

I turn my head back to the left, as my eyes drift off to a heavy sleep.

 

 --

 

My phone rings suddenly.

 

I open my eyes in shock. My eyesight, blurry.

 

But I manage to pick it up.

 

 

I yawn for a second then answer.

 

''Hello?''

 

''Good morning!! Big day today, get dressed and come down to breakfast!''

 

 

I realized it's Lauren's voice.

 

She was super hyper this morning, but I ignore it.

 

I just wanted to sleep in.

 

 

''Lauren it's-'' 

 

I look at the time on my phone.

 

 

6:30 AM

 

I continue. 

 

''..Really early in the morning.''

 

''And the sun is awake-'' she replies.

 

 

I cut her off by turning to the window in our bedroom. The sun's rays blind me as I try to turn back to my phone but instead I fall off the bed.

 

I fell with a loud thud.

 

Surprised by the ground meeting my face, I get up listening to Lauren again.

 

 

''...Then we'll go for a mini hotel tour if you choose to. See you then, bye!!''

 

 

She hangs up on me as.

 

I sigh slowly.

 

 

Jacob yawns loudly as I stand up.

 

''Good morning.'' he said, his low and raspy.

 

 

He had his arms behind his neck looking at me.

 

''Good morning to you too.'' I said.

 

Feeling the pain from the fall wrap around my knee, I groan and get up.

 

 

 

I stumble to go to the bathroom. Then as soon as i'm in, I take a look in the mirror.

 

It's gonna take a lot of effort to get up early every morning here. 

 

 

I take a nearby cup and fill it with water. My groggy eyes finally open.

 

I splash the water on my face giving me an alert feeling.

 

I gasp in horror.

 

 

My dress from yesterday was wet too. Slightly, with just spots of water.

 

 

The water was colder then I expected.

 

But i'm awake. And dripping water falls from my hair onto my dress.

 

''I'm awake.'' I finally said.

 

-- 

 

I hear a bell boy run by with luggage, as elevators ding and ding nearby.

 

Unfortunately, i'll be dealing with these hotel sounds for 7 days straight.

 

 

Jacob comes up behind me, as he strokes the strands of my hair behind my ear.

 

"You look good." he says.

 

I however still look dead after applying a little too much concealer on my face.

 

 

I was bombarded with the fact of waking up around 6:00 by Lauren herself.

 

I look across the hotel to see the 'sign' Rikki texted me this morning.

 

The Breakfast Hall

 

 

''There it is.'' I said grabbing Jacob's attention.

 

He smiles happily to see the view of food, and I was too.

 

 

I hadn't had anything to eat since the long flight here.

 

 

I walked faster as Jacob followed behind.

 

I instantly spot Rikki and Marybella and Mark at a table.

 

The hall or so called room, was decorated in white marble walls and golden curtains.

 

 

It looked like a scene reacreated in memoir out of a movie I suddenly remembered.

 

I turn my gaze back to the table after seeing the tasty buffet line that made my mouth water.

 

 

I sat next to Marybella, while Jacob joins me in the next seat.

 

Rikki turns to me and smiles.

 

She's wearing jeans as usual. But today, she wore a floral blouse that covered her long torso.

 

 

Marybella wore pink as usaul. But wore white shorts, which was unsual.

 

I however wore a light grey blouse and dark wash jeans.

 

 

 

''So how was the first night?'' Marybella asked smiling at me.

 

''It was great.'' I replied taking a sip from the served orange juice.

 

''Well I certainly enjoyed the first night. I mean macademia nuts and liquor?" Marybella replied.

 

"Who wouldn't pay for that?'' Rikki said with a smile.

 

''I...wouldn't pay for that.'' I replied.

 

 

Rikki knew I was kidding, but she smiled anyways.

 

I speak again.

 

''So Mark what do you think about Brazil so far?'' I ask.

 

''Well it's different from the chilly and normal weather in New York, but it's a change for once.'' he replies then chuckles.

 

''Nice for a change, it's so hot here. Hotter than ever in Manhattan.'' I complained.

 

 

Rikki takes a mouthful of her french toast. I eye her plate full of delicious food. 

 

My stomach and mouth couldn't handle it, I was hungry.

 

 

Before I could say something Jacob leans in.

 

 

He smells like a mix of shampoo and cologne. 

 

''You smell nice.'' I say, leaning into him with a smile.

 

''You too." he replies.

 

 

''Wanna get breakfast?'' he says.

 

''Yes.'' I reply hungrily.

 

 

I get up and rush over to the buffet line, anxious to get my hands on the scrambled eggs and waffles.

 

I continuosly licked my lips, suddenly getting tired of the person in front of me.

 

 

Finally, I set my eyes on a plate and head to the eggs first. Then the waffles, then to the strawberries. 

 

 

I slowly walk over in awe of the chocolate filled cocktail crossiants.

 

My eyes were glued to all of them. I couldn't pick just one.

 

"Take 3 if you want." Jacob murmered.

 

 

My eyes lit up and I take as many as I want.

 

Then, I stopped at the syrup in a massive bowl with a huge spoon to pour onto my hot waffles.

 

 

''Are you that hungry? You gonna be an longer?'' Jacob asked breaking me from my heavenly trance.

 

 

"Mmmhhm." I managed to reply.

 

He rolls his eyes, making me giggle.

 

 

Finally I
