His handsome smile and electric blue eyes. Those were worth tempting to me.
I stared at the corner, where Benjamin had just disappeared to, with his little sister Claudia in his arms. I couldn't find a reason to keep looking at that spot, but I did, somehow. I couldn't just believe I met a handsome boy who gave this butterfly feeling to me and invited me to join him in the youth meeting on upcoming Wednesday.
When I saw him earlier on stage whilst worship, –where he was playing guitar and singing along with the leading team– I never thought I'd ever get to talk with him, nor to see him outside of the stage.
Suddenly another person popped into my mind; Rilden. But this time, I didn't feel to sigh as I used to, and I knew the reason. He was the reason, Benjamin was the reason. I felt pretty sure that he must be that someone Rex was telling me. And for the first time, I was able to understand the whole thing why Rex and my brother was telling me to let go of Rilden; because there was someone else for me. I couldn't help but hope that Benjamin could be that someone.
I found myself smiling but that turned into a scowl as my cousin Archer began to tease me saying I'm in love. I almost forgot that he was beside me, laughing.
“Can you please stop laughing?” I sighed exaggerated. “You're gonna make people think you're mental or something.”
Archer managed to stop his laughter and waved a hand dismissively. “People knows I'm not mental; they know that Alecia Steaker won't choose those types.” he said.
I tilted my head at him, “Is your girlfriend that famous here?” I asked, motioning my hands to our surroundings. The church building was indeed large.
“Of course, didn't she tell you?”
“Tell me what?”
Archer snorted, “Allie, Benny and Cloudy are children of one of the main pastors here.” he said. “And of course she didn't tell you; because she's too modest.”
My lips parted in awe. Benjamin is a pastor's son?
I opened my mouth to ask my cousin if he's kidding me but then I saw Bonnie walking to us. “Come on you two. Pastor Andrew needs to see you.” she said as she reached to us. “What are you both doing here anyway?” she raised an eyebrow at us.
“Nothing.” I said before Archer spit something out. “Wait, Pastor Andrew? Who's that?”
“Our senior pastor.” Bonnie took my hand in hers and led the way, with a mumbling Archer behind us.
Bonnie led us all the way to upstairs where their pastor was waiting with our parents. It was nothing special, pastor Andrew just wanted to see me –that was to my big surprise– since I was new here along with my mom and was the bride's cousin. And while we were talking, I got the chance to meet Benjamin's dad, pastor Gale. A blonde tall man with golden eyes, dressed casually and looking gracious. I felt a bit nervous talking to him when he asked me questions like, where do I study, how's Colorado, how was the church service here and so like. Because it was his son, I'm finding myself falling for.
