Not Yet in Love

Chapter 3

We end up walking to my house, and decided to get a carriage to town. When we finally arrive in town we decide to walk to different stores. Buying a few ribbons or unique laces. We were currently at the library, my favorite spot in town. I was casually browsing though the mystery section when I spotted him. Like him, him!

My eyes became as big as the Pacific Ocean. I turn and start quietly walking away hoping I go un-noticed, until a hand reaches towards her and catches my wrist. The hold was firm but not tight enough to hurt me and leave a mark on me. I spin around to face him and narrow my eyes at him. I place myself so my footing is in 12 and 5. I spin my wrist so it becomes loose and with the same arm he was holding I drive my elbow into his stomach. He doubles over and grunts. I take the opportunity to come close so I'm whispering in his ear close enough that one could think we were lovers and say "If your so worried about court you should know not to touch a Lady without her permission" As I try to step away from the guy I noticed my mistake.

Oh I messed up I  messed up big time. I should have walked away from this man when I had the chance but I didn't. He reaches out for my arm and pulls me down making me lose my footing. As I'm scrambling to regain my footing he swings us over so my back is hitting the wooden floor before I finish blinking. I lose the capability of breathing for a few seconds. He has my arms pinned to my side and he is breathing heavily on top of me, "Who are and why do you keep following me?" I say breathless. 

He has a court like smirk on his face when he answers. "First off, I don't exactly believe your in the position of asking questions here princess! Secondly, I'm not following you. I just happen to see you twice in one day" I twist under his grip. I stop squirming when he tightens his grip on me. "Now I will let you go slowly, no sudden movements."

I narrow my eyes at him, but nod either way " And someone how that doesn't seem suspicious. Not too mention that you should realize you were the one that grabbed the wrist of a girl you barely even know!" where the hell is Nahara when she's's need the most. That's when I realize where the hell is anybody that was in the book store not even 5 minutes ago. He does as he said and slowly lightens his grip on me until he's standing again and offers a hand out to me which I ignore. I dust my skirts once again and start walking away. When he catches my hand I look down to where our skins are touching "Really we are gonna do this again" I say meeting his eyes.

I didn't notice before but his eyes oh my god his eyes are so striking and different it's weird I have met so many people but no one's eyes match the blue of his eyes. Omg I need to stop thinking of him. I get out of my trans to notice that he is smiling and once again it is that fake practiced smile. "Well that's for you to determine my lady," one of my eyebrows quirk up at the challenge.

I roll my eyes and pull my wrist away from him and start walking with him close on my hells like a little  lost pup. "So I went from someone you need to give money to, to being a Lady in your eyes in just a few hours. How utterly interesting. I have things to do, so if you will excuse me"

"My Lady, I'm sorry if that expression was ever given off by me when I gave you those silvers I did it from a place of concern not to offend you. So I must sincerely apologize and of course I must get the name of such a beautiful lady!" I give a glance over my shoulders making sure I'm quick to look away again. Why is he still following me? 

"I'm pretty sure you can live without it" 

"No My Lady, I don't think you understand I will not survive if I don't catch your name so please" I take a deep breath suppressing the laughter. I stop dead in my tracks and look at him "May" I say quietly for him not to hear.

"Huh?" I can't stop myself from smiling knowing my plan worked.

"I already told you my name now if you didn't catch it is not my fault is it?" As I finish speaking I spot Nahara and Mason speaking not too far away. would you look at who finely showed up. I internally roll my eyes at then for disappearing at me, but at the same time I don't think that I been happier to see them . "Now if you excuse me I do have to catch up with my friends." As I walked away I could feel his eyes on me and I had to fight not to stare back.
