To death do us apart

"If I had a flower for every time I thought of you, I could walk in my garden forever."

It has been a week since the incident with Allison took place.

I've not talked to Silas since. But I can't stop thinking about our latest conversation. I've noticed he's looked at me a few times.

Almost every time I sit in the dining room and eat. Or in the lessons. I always get the same feeling when I see him watching me.

I feel completely warm in my body and as if I had swallowed a thousand butterflies.

Right now I'm sitting in my English lesson trying to listen to what my teacher is saying.

"I will divide you two and two, then we will start with our group work which I will grade," he says.
Then he starts dividing us.

"You two" he points to a girl with short red hair and a guy with blonde hair.
"And you two" Then he points to me and someone behind me. I turn around and make eye contact with no one less than. Silas.

He gives me a small smile and I take my things in my hand and go over to his place.

"Hello" I say to him and he says so too. I smile at him and sit down next to him.

My whole body is aimed at him.

"So.... We can be at my house and do the work because I am home alone tonight "I suggest.

He nods and pulls his hand through his dark brown hair. It looked so smooth.

Before we talk about anything else, the bell rings. I pack my things. But before I go out, I turn to Silas.

"Eeh can I have your number so we can decide when you should come over and so I can give you my address?" I ask him.
He turns so that he is also directed at me.

"Okay" he says and takes out his mobile which he has in his trouser pocket.

"Here" he gives his mobile to me and I enter my number in it and then I send an SMS to see if it works. And it does.

"Done" I say when I'm done with it and give it to him. I smile at him and then I walk out of the classroom and leave him.

I'm home and lying on my newly made bed. In my hand I have my mobile. I'm waiting for it to be 5 o'clock because then Silas will come over.

10 minutes before five o'clock I get up and walk to my long mirror. I fix my clothes and comb through my brown hair.

Then I picked away some things I had on my desk.

Just when I was done, I heard the bell ringing. I go downstairs and open the front door.

On the other side of the door is Silas.

He is wearing the same clothes he wore to school.

A pair of jeans with a blue GAP hoodie. His hair is a mess. I almost felt like pulling my own fingers through his thick hair.

I almost did, but I managed to stop myself. I invited him in and showed him the living room.

He followed me. Then he sat down on my white sofa.

"Would you like something to drink?" I ask him and he nods and asks for a glass of water.

I nod in response and go into the kitchen and get some sweets and a few more snacks that I managed to find.

Then I fill two glasses with water and go back to the living room. I put all the things down on the coffee table and took out my school computer that I thought we could write on.

I look over at Silas and he did the same as me.

"So... I also saw that you read young women to English class" I say to get rid of this rigid silence.

"Eh yes" I looked up and our eyes met. But before he has time to look away, I do. "But how should we do the presentation?" I ask.

"Em I thought we could write..." He tell his whole idea and then we started working.

When almost 2 hours have passed, I get a text message from my mother. I read the message and am a little disappointed.

"Is there something wrong?" Silas asks. I look over to him and answer.

"No, it's just my mother. She needs to work overtime and will book into a hotel, so I will be alone at home tonight, "I tell him. He gives me a comforting smile.

My whole body feels stiff so I stretch and when I pull my arms up over my head my shirt goes up over the navel.

And just when it happened, Silas looked up. He quickly looked away and began to blush a little. I start laughing but then I sit down again.

"Can't we do something else?" I ask and he looks at me with a surprised look.

"Like what?" He asks in a curious tone. I smile and take the TV remote controls.

"What if we're watching a horror movie, that could be fun?" I suggest. He nods. But he doesn't move from the ground, so I pat the sofa three times and look at him.

He seems to understand what I mean and gets up from the floor, he then sat down next to me.

I gave him a blanket and then I took one for myself.

I put on The conjuring. I've heard it's scary and I love scary movies.

halfway into the film, I move closer to him so that our knees touch each other.

He does not seem to care and neither do I. But my stomach felt completely strange and I became completely hot.

I was just going to fix my pants when something scary happens in the movie and it scared me so I jumped. my foot got stuck in the blanket and I fell and landed on Silas.

I felt his warm breath on me and I look him in the eye. He has a strange look in them.

I heard his breath hitched and he began to breathe heavier. I swallowed and looked down at his perfect lips and then up at to his eyes.

I bit my lower lip and then I smiled at him. He just looked at me and started blushing.

He looked away quickly but I put my hand on his cheek and turned his head back so he looked at me.

He was completely red in the face and I thought he looked cute.

But before anything could happen, they started shouting on TV so I turned around and sat down next to him again.

But this time I put my head on his shoulder. And began to close my eyes, after about half an hour I fell asleep with my head still on his shoulder and with his hand on my knee.

I just want to say that English is not my first language and some sentences will sound weird. Or I will misspell something. :))

But I hope that you liked this chapter and don't forget to vote. <3
