Blue Moon (gxg)

The rest of the world doesn't exist (22)

As I was drying my hair, I decided to text Joe back.
At least I had to, not that I really cared.
I just needed to keep our conversation alive and shift it to him, so as not to raise any suspicion.
Act normal...

This made me feel like a huge... liar
but I decided to throw that thought away.

I let my hair going wavy.
I put on my usual makeup: just little bit if mascara, blush, a kinda nude lipstick.
In the mirror I noticed how my olive skin was starting to get more and more tanned now.

My phone made a notification sound in that moment, so I immediately think it was Joe again.
But then I read the text...

<< I've got an idea... would you trust on this one, too?
Ps: it's Bella. >>

A smile returned to shine on my face.
I don't know how she has the capability to do that.

I texted her back:
<< It won't be difficult to do so.
Ps: I have already saved your number.
Pps: I'm almost ready. >>

My heart filled with joy.
I couldn't stop thinking about looking into her eyes again and how my skin shivers everytime she touches me.
It makes me feel... good and I can't hide it from myself anymore.

I chose a light blue ruffled dress,
mid-calf length, then add some silver earrings and a heart-shaped necklace.
The one Mom had given me.

I grabbed my purse, left the room and waited for the elevator on my floor.
Every minute was eternal...
If I had to wait one more second I would have taken the stairs but then I heard that the elevator was about to reach my floor.

I looked up and I was mesmerized...
Bella was there, in front of me.

"Perfect timing..." She whispered, smiling spontaneously.
Her hands behind her back.

Her smile left me breathless and the rest of it too...

She was wearing a beautiful lilac dress.
It fitted at her natural waist and she was wearing it gracefully.
It has a sweetheart neckline that made the shape of her breast looks good...
She was wearing golden jewels.

"Hi..." I whispered blissfully.
"Hi..." She offered me her hand, which I immediately entwined with mine,
like two strings finally reunited.

Bella smiled as she pressed the button, then lowered her gaze:
"I don't know why, but I didn't want to wait a minute more."

I blushed.
"Well... I was getting nervous and I was about to take the stairs..." I confessed.
She looked at me surprised, her lips had parted slightly in a sweet smile: "So you would have walked four floors..."

I would have walked a lot of stairs just to decrese the distance between us.

I still can't believe it...

Leaning to the elevator, our arms gently brushed against each other.
That close, but not too close, contact made me feel a strange shiver down my spine.

"You're beautiful..." I whispered, lowering my gaze.

"You beat me here... because I was thinking the same, Ellie." She said back.
Her sweet tone of voice...

We stared at each other as we were smiling, then shyly looked away and gradually this scene repeated itself.
I was going crazy, blushing like a child.

"Wait a moment..." I stopped in the center of the room when we arrived to the floor.
We never let go of that eye and physical contact.
"You still haven't told me about that idea..." I laughed.
