Man In Tux

Chapter 13

He took me to the dance floor where others also started dancing. We moved smoothly with the rhythm of the music. I kind of liked how his arm possessively draped around me while my hands found a way into her chest and shoulders.

"Are you from Brooklyn Heights?!"
He pondered the question.

"Yeah, you?!"
I simply said making him shocked I guess.

A simple conversation doesn't harm.

He twirled me around before taking me back in his arm.

"I'm from Nashville but shifted here five years ago for my studies and internships."

"Where were you taking the internship?!"

"Eugenios"

"It's one of the best companies in New York for their transports and automobiles."

"You can say that."
I nodded enthusiastically

"Are you a mechanical engineer?!"
I said out loud my thoughts.

"Are you palmist or witch?"
He said squinting his eyes at me.

"You didn't even show your palm idiot. And if I had been a witch I would have disappeared you at the first glance."
I pointed out

"FYI, my name is not an idiot I'm Aiden Parker."

"Thanks but I'm not introducing myself to you."

"Feisty huh, there I thought you were being normal?!"

"Where are you working now?"
I asked getting a little eager.

"They offered me a post of junior Mechanical engineer in their company and I accepted after a year of my passion and hard work the manager was pleased and promoted me to senior Mechanical engineer."

"Gosh__how old are you?! I mean are you even a graduate?!"

"I graduated from NYU this year and I'm 25."

"You're older than me and a nerd."

"How thoughtful of you!!"
He sarcastically added.

"I'm studying nursing at Columbia University."
I proudly stated.

"Oh, no doubt you are going to kill the patient with a simple look."
He mocked.

"You don't know me."
I bickered back.

"We should right?!"
I opened my mouth to say something back but closed it.

"Now tell me your name."
He said in a demanding tone.

"Just name. I'm not interested in you."

"Convince it yourself Miss___"
Before he could baptize me with any more vile names I cut him off.

"Hazel."

"I would love to eat."
He suddenly said making my face sour as I intake a sharp breath.

"Wow. You saved from a brutal punch because we are at the wedding."
I said faking a sweet smile. I was taking my mental steps to step on his foot with my heels.

"I really like hazel nuts, I didn't lie."
He said innocently and smirked looking at my flustered face.

"You dirty girl!!! You should have said you want me."
He growled playfully. I swatted his hands away from my waist and we completely stopped dancing.

"Yeah, when hell freezes over Aiden."
He smiled widely turning his whole face at me.

"Playing hard to get I like it."

"Are you copying Lucifer?!"
I amusingly glanced at him.

He was about to speak something but a phone call intrude. He only mumbled an okay before hanging off.

"Want to get out of this boring place?!"

"I would better eat my shoe than stay there."

"Wanna go somewhere?!"

"Where?!"

He longed to stare at something on display before shoving it in his pocket.

"I'll wait for you outside in my silver BMW."
He said fixing his collar.

"Wait wait wait...."
I screeched

"What made you think I'll go with you."
I cocked my eyebrow giving a him questioning glare.

"I can read it__"
He said and erased the emptiness between us. The closeness was quite comfortable to my adjust.

He brushed the strand of my hair behind my ear, which managed to fall in my face curtaining the blush forming in my freckled face.

"In your eyes..."
He cupped my face and I leaned more into his warmness. The rough palm of his hand didn't matter, the large population here didn't matter anymore.

I'm afraid of what the next move will be, doesn't matter if he does first or me. All of my patience was taken away, restlessness, until he opened his mouth

"Don't make me wait."
He mumbled reading my face and exceptionally my eyes.

I blinked.

And repeated the previous action tilting my head.

My heart accelerated completely messing up my sanity. Why on earth- what just happen- anyone please explain? Why?

Jesus, I need strength and all power to not kill this man.
