Joining the Hats

Chapter 15: Always the shorties

Mia's POV:
I woke up in a different bed an was a bit confused at first. I rubbed my eyes and looked around the room for any signs it was someone I knew. Then I realised that I must have fallen asleep on Smith last nigh and he took me back to his place. I got out of the bed and fixed it up a little bit before walking down. It was 6:30, just let me sleep in for once please. Smith was sleeping on the couch and it was so cute. I almost couldn't believe that a person that big and scary could look so peaceful. I took a few photos as I knew that he wouldn't wake up early enough to get any pictures of me. "Pay back will be a bitch, when the time comes." He stirred and I realised I shouldn't have said that so loud. Usually, for some reason when someone was asleep my voice didn't allow me to go any higher than whispering, but then as soon as they woke up I could talk properly again. I left Smith a note and quietly walked out. I didn't bother to have a shower I just threw on my exercise clothes, some deodorant and drove to the gym. As I was doing deadlifts whist my butt was facing the wall as there were some single men in the gym at that point, one came up to me, great. I took out my one of my headphones and finished my reps, unlucky for me I was nearly finished. Even un-luckier he waited till I had finished before he spoke. "Hey, your cute." God why did the shorties like me.
"Not interested." I was taking off that weights, I was lifting 70 kilos. I had 2, 20's and 2, 10's. "Let me help you with that," he was trying so desperately.
"I just lifted 70 kilos in a deadlift I think I'm fine to lift 40 thank you very much." I was talking the 2, 20's at the same time. "Well I will help you so you don't have to come back."
"Look, mate. I'm not interested so leave me alone."
"Why else would a lady as pretty as you be in a gym full of guys, if she wasn't looking for one."
"Maybe to, I don't know, work out."
"But your already so skinny why work out and ruin that perfect body with muscles." I laughed. "To late, so bugger off." I looked just behind him and saw Hannah. I guess he couldn't see my muscles or were choosing to ignore them. "Your so pretty, I'm just asking if you want to go out for coffee sometime."
"Oh I'm sorry didn't I tell you to PISS OFF already." Hannah cleared her throat and the guy turned around. "What I'm simply talking to my girlfriend."
"I don't believe she is." He laughed, "How could you possibly know that, I'm friends with all her friends." Next minute I see Smith walk through the gym and a massive grin went across my face. He casually walked up to us. "What do you want, mate," the guy in front of me said. "I think you shall find that she is not your girlfriend," Hannah said. Smith just calmly stood there. "I was talking to King Kong over there." I did a cough talk. "Shorty," I pretend coughed, "sorry what."
"You know you're a real bitch all I asked is for you to go out with me." Smith grabbed his shoulder still calm. "Mate I think you will find that she has a boyfriend and he is making you shit yourself," Smith said with a smile, I couldn't help but grin myself. "F-f-fuck you," the guy stammered before quickly running away. Hannah, Smith and I just laughed. "How many times has that happened to you so far," Hannah asked she has obviously got a few as well.
"I think that was about the 10th and they're all shorter than me, what's all that about." Hannah laughed. I had finished my work out so went home and went for a shower.

Smith's POV:
I just sat it Mia's lounge waiting for her to get out of the shower. She came out wearing denim shorts and a black singlet, as it was summer. I looked at her hair and laughed. "What?" Mia asked.
"Your hair is sticking up."
"It's my new look," she laughed and patted it down. She began walking out the door and I followed. Mia stopped in her drive way then threw me some keys. I felt my face light up like a little kid. "Are you serious."
"Yes go ahead." I ran over to her 4-wheel drive and jumped. "Are you actually serious," I asked again I was so goddamn happy. "Yes I'm serious and you can drive it home as well."
"Mia did I ever tell you that I loved you."
"Love you to Smith." I just sat in the car as Mia hopped out. She tapped on my window. "Smith you still have to go to work." I sighed and hopped out as well. "And as I said you can drive home as well." I felt like a little child getting their most wanted Christmas present. I walked into my office smiling like a complete idiot. "What are you so happy about," Trott asked, I almost didn't hear him. "Did you and Mia do it last night or something."
"Wait what, no! Mia let me drive her 4-wheel drive."
"Oh ok, nothing else."
"You sir are disgusting, and no nothing else."
"Why thank you." It was just Trott and I some days Ross showed up early and Trott was next then me and other days it was Trott, me than Ross.
