She snapped herself out of the hypnosis of the man with his car that he had put on her and gave him not such a friendly look. She had turned around and held her nose up, continuing to walk.
It seemed that he didn't anticipate this because for a few seconds she had the impression he had ditched her. But it was only an impression. He continued to follow her with the car as he was walking next to her. Hand in hand. The situation was growing even more infuriating for Claudya as everybody was looking at them, smiling! All the time she had passed making herself invisible and this arrogant new colleague was breaking this in a few minutes.
Claudya was having a rage! Right there on the spot. She looked at him with fire spears thrown from her eyes...
"I don't understand what is the thing with you! You met me today and yet it seems you follow me everywhere? What is the catch?" all the talking she did between her teeth.
He was looking at her not even a little bit perturbated by her growing furious episode.
" I saw a colleague, he said, "and I wanted to give her a ride home. I wouldn't want her to break her arms from the heavy bags and could not write at school." and gave her another devilish smile.
Dia stopped her walk and looked stupid from him to the small loads of bread and back to him. Break her arms? From some small loaves of bread? He wasn't leaving her so easily.
"Enter", he said the last time. "I will follow you like this to your home and there is nothing that you can do."
He had convinced her with this last sentence. She rolled her eyes, and sighed, but got around in the car and when she wanted to sit in the passenger seat, he arrived from nowhere and opened the door for her.
Well, the gesture moved her but she wouldn't show him that, not even he would squeeze her fingers against the car door. She wasn't the girl to trust someone easily. Especially since he seemed a bit cocky making her accept his ride. And not knowing him, not even a little bit.
Dia sighed again and said 'Please God, give me patience' before he got back in the car.
He started the engine, making Dia tremble with impatience about being in SUCH a car with SUCH a guy!
She looked at him through her eyelashes and before she could bite her lips out of curiosity she asked,
"Did you steal a bank or something?"
And started to bite her lips when she heard his burst of a laugh. She made her eyes wide open at him, contrary to his reaction. All of his faces lighted up and he looked so good in the driver's seat and cheerful. Claudya slowly moved her eyes on the road, trying to disregard all the feelings he was waking up in her. She refused even to think about it. Not now. Not when she decided to go to university far, far away from that small town.
She felt his look at her and tightened up the small loaves more while blushing hard on the cheeks. She wasn't used to having the attention of a guy.
Softly, he arranged his voice after the laugh he had and asked,
"You need to tell me where you live. I need directions only one time." and looked at her with such an intense look.
Claudya felt like she had almost swollen her tongs and was asking herself 'What the hell has this man that tongues me with only one look? And the suggestions he made...' She was only making signs with her hands, right and left. Of course, they arrived in no time at her house, it was a few minutes walk and faster than a car. She sighed silently, being scared she would make a fool of herself in front of him with all her hot moods around him. She was almost about to jump out of the car when he stopped her by putting a hand on her knees.
"Not so fast!" he said slowly.
Claudya was all melted. He was having the bad boy look but she never thought he might be one. She started to tremble under his touch.
"Why are you trembling?" he looked at her.
Slowly, he took his hand from her knee where she had fixed the look on it and said gently.
"I am not the guy to force a woman into anything if that is the thought you had. I just wanted to say that maybe you will thank me, and not because I want to hear thanks from you, but because I would like to hear you talk. If not, I have to go back from where I picked you up to look for your tongue." he said, smiling gently.
Claudya was almost about to burst into laughter just imaging him doing that but she bit her lips before doing it.
She said slowly,
"You are right, thank you," while looking at him with a bit of daring in her eyes, like she needed to hear those words from him, just to comfort her.
Like at a signal, he went off and in no time he arrived at her side and opened the door. She went out and looked at him, almost lost in his eyes. For a moment she forgot where she was. That feeling she scared most. To lose her head over a boy. This was the second time she had seen him and already had this power over her. She snapped from the 'hypnosis' and turned around to go into the house, but she stopped when she heard him talking. She was with her back at him but his voice made her skin tingle.
"I want us to be friends. You are the first and only person at this new school with which I have felt a connection... I wouldn't want to let it waste. And maybe I should tell you about where I have the car. Some day."
She could feel the smile in his voice at the last sentence. She bit her lips again. It was her sign of nervousness. She said with a slow voice,
"We will see..." and almost ran inside. She closed the door and slid it down towards it. She was breathing heavily while thinking, 'Friends?!? In what world does he live? Who was he and where did he come from? He wasn't from here. He heard him taking off from the front of her house, hearing the pebbles under his car wheels. 'Dangerous car as his dangerous driver...If I am not careful this guy will make me lose it.'
While taking off from the front of the house a bit too hard, just to grab her attention, Nick looked in his mirror at her door. 'Does she look after him while leaving?' he dubbed a little bit that. It seems he got into that shy and a bit fearful girl. But when he saw that hair of hers that looked like the sunset in the summer when the sky looks like it is on fire, his heart skipped a beat. His heart recognized her before his mind made any connections. This was saying something. He was feeling a certain pleasure in these feelings and just wanted to look more into them.
He frowned a bit, thinking that his uncle warned him to stay low because he was about to be 21 years old in just 2 months, and was just stupid to act otherwise. But at this point, he did not care. He wanted to know that girl a bit more, and he would. What was left of his family? The uncle and aunt from his father's side decided to roll him into the senior year of high school just because he was about to lose his mind. They have made a goal to take care of him after he lost his parents in an airplane crash that was well known as no accident. His parents were one of the most wealthy couples in the world. They were billionaires. And they were murdered by a criminal they thought could take all their money because nobody knew that he was having a son. This was a well-kept secret and it still was. He was about to inherit billions of dollars in just two months and it was stupid to get out now, being so close to the date, but he had done his best to convince his uncle and aunt that he needed that. And they accepted, with several conditions. Among them, it will be that they will use a false name and he cannot make friends or have a girlfriend. He accepted all conditions until he arrived at school and saw those good for nothing trying to take advantage of that girl 'Claudya', he thought. He had a smiling flourish on his lips. The workout he chose to do to eliminate the anger and the frustration paid off. But more paid off when he saw her look while he made those bullies leave her alone. That was priceless. And he wanted to be honest with him, he saw beauty all over the world because he was traveling a lot with his father to find out how to run the family business, but none touched his heart like her. A girl with the body of a woman. ' I want to know her better. I wanna get lost in those green eyes.' he was thinking while squeezing the steering wheel too much.
His uncle and aunt would kill him if they found out, 'but they don't have to know.' He thought. 'This will be my best-held secret.'
