What Doesnt Kill You Makes you stronger

Chapter 1

“Liz, he’s cute! He wants you girl! Why don’t you want to go over there?”

The boy across the room was making eye contact with me. Why was it so hot in the room?

I felt like jumping out of my skin. I looked at Jess. Words were not able leave my mouth. Finally I was able to speak.

“I, uh, well it’s getting late and I have you know that one project thing to do.” I said crossing my arms around my chest. Jess just rolled her eyes, and took one of my arms.

“Liz grow up! Seriously please just go over and talk to him and then I’ll leave you alone about it!”

I yanked my arm out of her grasp. If all I have to do is go and talk to him than it is worth it.

Looking at him he was standing near the wall looking at me. I felt so self-conscious walking toward him.

I slowly made my way over to him and he smiled at me when I was just in arm’s length.

“Hey, I’m Myles” he said. He smiled and reached out to give me a hand shake. I just looked at it. What in the world? Who gives handshakes anymore? I mean oh come on this guy must be some type of player. The type of guy who is nice and sweet and then BOOM he is a complete jerk and makes you wonder why he left with a note on the bed saying he was going home and that he is sorry he wasn’t able to love me anymore.

“You okay?” I looked at him and realized I was talking to myself self-consciously. I need to snap back in to reality.

“Uh, I don’t shake hands sorry.” He slowly put his hand to his side. I shifted my weight to my right leg. We stood there in complete silence. Why was I being such a snob? I mean he isn’t Max. But Jess said I had to come over here and talk to him I talked to him I said I don’t shake hands. So basically my job was done.

“Well okay” I said breaking the silence. I turned around and started to head back to jess.

“Wait!” he raised his voice. I turned to him in complete shock. He walked to me.

“You never told me your name.” he said. His eyes were focused on me he didn’t even blink. I’d never seen such beautiful eyes before they were light brown they twinkled when the light hit them in such a way.

“Oh my name is Elizabeth but everyone calls me Liz.” I spoke softly. I knew Jess was probably staring at me smirking. He smiled.

“Elizabeth… What a beautiful name,” him saying my name gave me a funny feeling in my stomach.

“Well Elizabeth I would like to have dinner with you.” I looked up at him. Dinner? I hadn’t had dinner with another man since Max. Well except my dad but I mean he doesn’t count.

“Sure that sounds good.” Myles just smiled and looked at his phone.

“How about Ma Nolan’s?” My eyes almost jumped at of my head. Ma Nolan’s? That restaurant was basically impossible to get into.

“Oh wow. That sounds fantastic.” Smiling he took a piece of paper out of his pocket and asked me if I had had a pen. Reaching into my purse I found a pen and handed it to him. He wrote something down, handing me the paper it had his name and number on it.

“Call me.” he said, and he walked away from me. Turning around I walked to Jess. Jess was big eyed.

“Did you just get a date from him?” she was smiling.

“Oh is that was its called.” I said smiling from ear to ear.

“Oh my gosh! I can’t believe it!” she said taking my hands in to hers. I’d seen her happy before but never this happy before.

“Girl yes I got a date with a single and handsome man.”

We walked out of the bar. Myles was just unlocking his truck door. Jess took me on a little detour to her car.

Knowing her I knew what she was about to say and do.

“Oh Goodness! Liz Where is your car?” she said looking from left to right. I have always known to play along when she does things like this.

"Jess I have no idea! Oh for heaven sakes i was having such a good time too and now for this too happen." She looked at me with a smirk. My eyes got big hinting to her this isn't the time to be smirking. Myles looked over to us and realized it was me. He shut his door and started to walk towards me.

" Hey Elizabeth." Smiling his beautiful smile. I just looked at him and waved. No words were being formed once again. I felt like i was being a Junior High girl who was being shy infront of the guy that she liked.

" So uh would you like me to take you home?" he asked. Jess pushed infront of me. "YES! She would LOVE for you to take her home." she smiled and looked at me. Rolling my eyes I answered too Myles.

"Myles thank you so much. That would be great."
