When Arabella opens the door I can already feel my nerves increasing rapidly. I inhale and exhale constantly the air in my lungs suddenly feeling limited. When I look up I finally meet her gorgeous green eyes. Taking a few seconds to scan her face. The dim light from the burnt out lightbulb in the hallway contrasts the bright light coming from her apartment making me see her small and adorable freckles and the shadows on certain parts of her face becoming more prominent.
Shit. She's so pretty.
I refocus my thoughts back to the beautiful girl in front of me. "Hi." I force out awkwardly. The silence was starting to get to me.
Her head snaps up from looking down at her twiddling thumbs. She exhales sharply and mutters out "Hey. Do you- do you want to come in?", pointing her know released thumbs into the room behind her.
I sigh of relief leaves me and I nod at her. She slowly walks backwards and opens her door, leading me inside.
I walk inside and take glance around at the small but beautiful space. It's bright and open unlike the look of the apartment complex itself. I suppose a home is what you make it out to be. I close the door behind me and walk around some more. The place looks relatively neat but I can't tell if it's always like this or she knew I was coming so she fixed it up. Anyways not like I really care.
She's perfect either way.
After looking around we both realize that it ends up being quite awkward. I decide to clear the air a little bit. "So- um- is your wrist ok?" I ask hesitantly, doing everything in my power to not meet her gorgeous green eyes.
"Oh! Yeah it doesn't hurt as bad so that's an improvement from before." she replies with a smile.
Wow. Her smile is adorable. Is there anything about this woman that isn't admirable?
"That's nice" I reply with. Now I'm thinking that I should've started a conversation that would have lasted longer. "I see you made cupcakes?"
"Oh! Yeah I did. I wanted something to pass time and I really like baking and me and Alexandra were talking and she said you liked vanilla cupcakes so I made some. and I also bought candy. I didn't know what you liked so I just bought general stuff" she rambles on, a dark pink and very cute blush covering her face.
So fucking adorable.
"Wow um- thanks. I bought brownies from the café, cause Elena and Armani said you really liked them and yeah." We are met with the same awkward silence once again. It stays that way for a good couple of seconds until I just blurt out "Do you wanna watch a movie?" Her eyes snap to mine, surprised at the sudden outburst and yet eventually she nods. She grabs the bag full of candy and gestures me to take off my shoes and follow her to her room.
