MILA IS PRONOUNCED (ME-LA)
THIS CHAPTER WILL JUMP BETWEEN POVS
LUKAS'S POV
What the fuck was I thinking. Lia followed me into my apartment and I honestly felt ashamed, I had no furniture but the walls were covered in my niece's drawings. I went into the other room to put away my helmet and hang my jacket.
OPHELIA'S POV
When I walked in I was truly surprised. He only had a couch and a TV in the living room, and from what I could see, was the rest of the rooms in his apartment had the same little to no furniture theme. He walked into his bedroom, which I knew was his bedroom because our apartments had the same layout. I took that time to look at the pictures on the walls. All the pictures where hand drawn, and looks like they were drawn by a 4 year old. I just stood there awkwardly waiting for him to return. I was suddenly aware of what I was wearing, I had black sweat pants and a tight fit grey spaghetti strap tank top on. When Lukas came out of his room I almost audibly gasped. I had not realized how sculpted and inked his body was. He threw a pizza in the oven and turned around.
LUKAS'S POV
I put a cheese pizza in the oven and set the timer. I turned and saw her staring. " You got a staring problem Lia?", she opened her mouth to talk and stopped, but started again, " No, sorry if it seemed like it". I couldn't tell if she was being sarcastic or not. She turned and started looking at the pictures on the walls. Lia slowly wandered through my living area taking in every piece of art. The oven timer went off and I grabbed the pizza and set it on my small table in the corner. I gestured for Lia to take a seat, she made her way over to the table and sat, grabbing piece of pizza. Ophelia took a bite, closed her eyes and made a quiet moan. I grabbed a piece and took a bite. After about 5 minutes of eating in silence she spoke, "What are all these drawings?". I responded, " My niece Mila, she loves doodling little things and she lights up whenever she sees them all on my walls". Lia smiled, "I love that". We sat there in silence. I never really got to see her face up close like this Lia had beautiful long auburn hair, and stunning forest green eyes. She also had a light sprinkling of freckles across her cheeks and nose. My eyes veered down to her chest, she was wearing a grey tank top that made it so her full tits were just in my view.
OPHELIA'S POV
We sat there in silence I took that opportunity to study his features. Lukas had sandy blond hair (that was really closer to a dirty blond) that effortlessly landed on his head. I feel like i could get lost in his mesmerizing hazel eyes. I scanned every feature of his face until I was familiar with the look. My eyes settled on a not so small tattoo behind his ear, the tattoo was a snake that coiled into a kind of S shape. I then realized Lukas was staring at me.... "So, tell me about your niece". He looked away and started, "She a hand full that's for sure" he kind of chuckled, "Not a lot of people ask me about my family". I continued to press, "How old is she?", " She's only 4". I have no idea what to ask/say next.
LUKAS'S POV
I could tell she was running out of things to say so I started asking questions too. " So.... Ophelia..... do ....you......like..........workout?" Wow. Workout was the best I could do? And it was clearly the wrong choice too. I could have sworn her eyes turned red. "Okay, No......You didn't answer me in the hallway, you have literally said like 30 words to me overall and you ask me 'if I workout?'". Ophelia stood up and started walking to the door but before she turned the knob she turned, "Thank you for dinner, I really enjoyed being harassed during it", she turned, opened the door and walked out. Shit.......... I then saw the door open again, I looked up and she was standing there, "And, Its Lia you dick", she slammed the door shut, and I went to bed.
