Our destiny

Note

We arrive at my house after a rather quiet walk. This mostly resulted from me being too nervous to talk. I hope I didn't make a bad impression with that.

"I'll show you the spare room." I say and lead her down the hallway. I hope it doesn't look too bad in there. I didn't expect someone to come in here so soon. Ellie stays a bit behind me and I open the door to the room. She takes a look around and puts her bag down.

"Looks comfortable." She says. I hope she actually means that. I turn around and look at her. I can't believe that she is in my house.

"Do you need to shower? I can get you towels." I say.

"No it's fine. I already showered."

"Okay. Bathroom is down the floor to the left." I explain.

"Where is your room?" She asks with a smile I can't read into. I get so nervous because of that question. Something inside me wants her to sleep in my bed but I push that away. I don't want to be a creep.

"To the right." I slowly say.

"Good to know." She says. I don't know what to do. Should I stay or should I go? Ellie looks at me a bit clueless.

"I'll change my clothes." She says.

"Okay." I nod but still don't go. Why am I know going? I should go. She doesn't start with changing her clothes. Obviously she doesn't. Because I'm still here.

"Do you want to watch me?" She laughs. I shake my head. I would love to watch her but I can't say that.

"No no, sorry. I'll go." I finally step back and go outside the room closing the door. That was embarrassing. Why am I acting like this? I go to my room and also get ready for bed. It is quite late and I'm sure Ellie is pretty tired after her performance. I quickly change my clothes and wash my face.

I sit on my bed and don't know what to do. Should I go back and look after her or should I just go to bed? I sigh and close my eyes to try and get my head clear. I still think about that moment of looking into her eyes. Her eyes are so insanely beautiful. She is damn attractive. Overall she is perfect. My heartbeat increases just from thinking about her.

I hear a knock at the door and open my eyes again.

"Yeah?" I say. The door opens and Ellie is standing there in shorts and a T-shirt. She looks so pretty. God, I wish I could take her into my bed. I want her by my side. I hate that my dream woman is literally standing in front of me and I am not able to do anything.

"Why are you sitting there like this?" She asks.

"I wasn't sure if you were ready and I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable." I shyly confess.

"You're somehow cute." She smiles. My heart skips. "I just wanted to say good night and thank you for letting me sleep here."

"No problem." I shrug. I act like I take it casually when I'm actually so nervous.

"Good night, Leah." She says. I like to hear her say my name. She says it so beautifully.

"Good night, Ellie." I say. It felt good saying this. I wish I could hold her in my arms tonight. I never felt like this so fast about someone. I feel like I'm obsessed with her.

She walks back and closes the door again. I go and lay in my bed. I stare up at the ceiling. What is she doing right now? Is she sleeping already? Somehow I wait for her to come in here. I want her here. I hate that she is just a few meters away but yet it feels so far. When I close my eyes I see her. She makes me feel so much and everything is so intense. This morning I was still moody about going to this show and now I can't imagine what I would do if I didn't go. I would have never met her. Technically I don't know anything about her. I let a complete stranger sleep in my house but I feel like I know her. Her green eyes and her hazel brown hair is everything I see when I close my eyes. She has such a sweet smile and cute freckles. She looks adorable. I want to know more about her. I want to know her favourite colour, her taste in music and her favourite food. I want to hear her say good morning to me and I want to fall asleep with her by my side.
