One Step Closer

Chapter 2 - To be or not to be..

What exactly did I do wrong in my previous life to undergo this amount of humiliation??

James freaking Anderson had to be the one to bump into me and see me in my miserable attire on this particularly important day!!

I place my head on his shoulder, not caring one bit, since I already seem to have been seen at my worst.. Oh well, my head started to pain and I couldnt take it anymore. He seems to be adamant in not leaving me, maybe he is feeling guilty of hurting me by mistake, but he's clutching me more tightly to him.

He places me in the mall's seating area and kneels in front of me. I try to avoid his eyes, because as unaffected I could be to his beauty, I have a thing about not being able to look into people's eyes directly. He obviously notices that and places his hands on either side of my face and lifts it up.

Goddaammm it!! I gasp audibly and people stop to look at me, but he doesnt seem to waver his attention.

If you told me Grey was a colour to die for, I would have laughed my ass off and told you to get your eyes checked. But then again, I hadn't seen his eyes till now...the most deepest orbs I have ever seen!!

"..be better. Okay?" He said. I mentally shake myself and try to grasp what he is saying. "I am sorry. What did you say?" I ask.

He smiles and I die a little. His smile is so...orgasmic!! God! Damn James, couldn't you be normal in any possible way?

"I said, 'you seem to have a cut on your elbow and other little scratches, but after I see to them , you'll be better.' " He repeats himself.

"Oh, it's fine. I just need a tablet for my headache." I look down to my lap and interlace my fingers with a sigh and play with my thumbs.

He wraps his left hand around my hands and lifts my chin up to look at him. I stare at his nose this time, not wanting to make a fool out of myself again.
"Please, let me tend to them first." He says with a smile.
Control. Control.

"Okay."

After a full 10 minutes of torture, I take my bags and try to go to the book store when a hand around my elbow stops me. I turn around and see his hard chest right in my face. Okay..

"Yes?" I ask quickly. "You seem to be in a hurry. What's up?"

I debate whether to tell him or not. Oh well..

"I have to buy this book in the store, I gotta go. Thanks for taking care of me, but I really have to get going. See you later."

"Wait!" What is up his ass? I sigh and wait for him to continue.
"Will you come with me for a Coffee sometime soon? You seem really interesting.. I'd like to know you more."

Hahahhahahaha!! Oh yeah sure.. Beauty and the Nerd... haha.. NEVER!

"I guess that's not a very good idea.. haha.. Take care."
"Hey, why not give it a chance? Common, I know you want to! "

What the freaking hell? Now he just ramdomly wants to throw all his charm at me and expects me to deal with it? Come to think if it... why not?
