The next morning I met up with Haley at breakfast. " Remember when he bumped into you and the look on his face when he looked at you? It was hilarious. She laughed as I rolled my eye's as Austin sat down with us with a full tray of food. " Who are we talking about?" Austin asked shoving half a pancake in his mouth. " The preacher might have a crush." Haley had to tell him o my goodness. "Hold on The Preacher. Who preached last night about not falling to short or you'll get caught. Yeah he's pretty cute." I looked over at him with a raised eyebrow as Haley snickered.
" OK, so last night I was playing one on one pool with Haley right, well I wanted a drink so Kayla went to get me on and The Preacher came over as I was about to walk around to the other side of the pool table and I didn't see him and I might have accidentally made him spill his drink over both of us. " So you're telling me that Mister hotty flirted with you. O wow" Austin and Haley looked over at The Preacher who happened to be looking over at us.
" Oh now he knows where talking about him." Haley stated turning around and Austin still munching on some hash browns saying abort abort. I laughed as I looked back up and made eye contact with The Preacher. " I just wanna know tho what's his name because it's bothering me?" I blushed as he stared me up and down as we got up to take our trays to the back. " you know I've heard that they say his name is Cainian Nolan."
I said his name a few times, sounded good to me. " Someone has a crush." Haley said as she grabbed my arm thru hers as Austin shook his head walking with us. " Hey Keri! I turned around and saw Cainian running towards us. " Someone wants to talk to you." Haley said pulling away from me and walked ahead with Austin. Cainian and I walked towards the theater a few feet from Haley and Austin. " I never apologized for last night."
" I should be apologizing actually I bumped into you. I stated smiling at him and blushing looking down. " Well it was my drink. I'm sorry for making you bump into me and making you spill my drink onto both of us.
" I'm sorry too. I feel like you where making me feel bad tho."he laughed looking at me. " no, no I wouldn't I shouldn't have said that. My bad." WOW that was awkward.
" OK. Hey let's start over. I'm Cainian Nolan." We stopped at the steps of the theater. I looked up at him and shook his hand and told him my name as we both walked into the theater. " What are you preaching on?" I asked as he led me on the stage. I called it a Platform but since we where in a theater it was more of a stage. " It's a surprise. He said walking backwards smiling at me as he walked where all the men sat. I looked out at the empty seats and saw Haley and Austin laughing and pointing at us. "I guess I have to wait like everyone else." I said giving him a look." Maybe I should talk about how people like to do what you're doing." I giggled and blushed and looked away towards Haley. O my God did I just giggle wait did he just wink at me. I looked over at him as he wrote something in his notes. " Wait no I take that back. I just wanted to know." He looked up at me and chuckled and patted the seat next to him. When I did he showed me the title.
Don't be the Distraction.
" That sounds epic. " " It should be, I wrote and studied myself so I could preach to you and everyone else. "
I looked at him as he studied what he wrote. " Can I be honest? He looked worried as he put his notes with his bible under his seat and paid attention to what I had to say. 'I have a complicated ex and I know he's not the one. He's been acting out and um. I fiddled with my hands as I tried to explain that I liked him and not my ex, but I didn't want to rush into anything and that I haven't been to church in a long time.
He grabbed my hand. " May I ask if we pray?' I wanted to cry he knew just want to do." Lord give her direction. Help her and show her what to do. Be with her and bless her, touch her ex and help him to hopefully leave her alone and move on. " I feel like he said that because he liked me too I smiled. Maybe God had helped me to meet him. I hope so. I pictured myself with him, looked nice I knew I'd be happy.
