The eyes in the crowd (On Hold)

Chapter Five

Alright...*takes deep breath* Here we go. This chapter...this chapter right here has me feeling all types of ways.

I'll just leave you with that and let you guys decode for yourselves.

I feel way under dressed. When she said we were going out for dinner I thought she meant that we were going to a diner or a fast food chain...not a fancy restaurant.  She was also famous to the point where the staff addressed her by first name and told them that her floor was ready. Yes floor. What the hell?

We sit down and I look around in awe. So this is what being rich gets you. A huge beautiful private floor with the perfect balcony view. 

"Beautiful isn't it?" She asks me.

"Yes, very," I say as I take in as much as I can. The beautiful sunset, with the view of the crashing waves on the beach, the smell comforting smell of sea salt to go along with it. A waiter comes and asks us what we would like to drink and if we decided what we wanted to eat.

"Do you mind if I order for you?" Jessi asks.

"No,  not at all." I say with a slight blush. She smiles in return and orders for the both of us. 

Once everything is situated, I begin to pull the music sheets out of my bag.

"What are you doing?" She asks.

"You're kidding," I go to laugh but stop when I see that she is generally confused.

"We agreed to come to dinner and go over what we want to keep and what we were changing." I tell her.

"I thought we agreed we do that tomorrow and I just take you out for dinner." 

"That is not what we agreed on or at least I don't think we did,"  now I'm confused.

"You said why not on the phone or tomorrow after I told you we should go to dinner after talking to Mr. Ray. So then I just said that we'll go to dinner to make up for you making me do all that running. Don't you remember?"

"Oh, I didn't-I meant, well I thought you meant..." Luckily the waiter came over with our water and I lifted up the glass and took a sip, after thanking them for bringing over the water.

What the hell is wrong with me? What is it about her that makes it to where I can't form a proper sentence?!!! I really need to get myself together, first the running and then this?!!! 

"Well either way I'm glad you accepted my invitation for dinner. " 

"Why?" I ask and then want to face palm myself for not thinking before I speak.

"Well you seem like an interesting person. Someone I would have the pleasure of getting to know." 

She looks right into my eyes as she says this and I shyly look away and refrain from fanning myself. Is it hot in here? It's definitely hot in here. Why do I feel as if that sentence has a double meaning?

"So in other words this dinner was a way of you wanting to get to know me better?"

"And to make up for you making me do all that running." She adds and I can't help but laugh.

"Yes, and for making you do all that running. Which I am really sorry for. I don't know what I was thinking." I look up and see that she was looking right at me.

"What?" I ask, growing self conscious.

"Nothing. I just, really like your laugh."

Now usually I would find it creepy if someone I just met said this to me but for some reason, I didn't mind when it came from her. Instead I wanted to hear her praise me more. Ugh ew! What the fuck is wrong with me. I really need to get rid of these creepy thoughts, it's not healthy.
