Window To The Soul

Chapter 2

Ross's POV

I started looking not only at her eyes, but examined her full form.
She was short, but not too short. Just tiny in the best way possible. Her hair was dark brown with the slightest hint of lighter brown color in the tips. It moved in the summer breeze and her big curls waved on her back. She wore a cute blue dress, with a high neckline that ended a little above her knee. On her feet, she had white wedges with a flower print and around her neck hang a golden necklace with a little heart charm.

Her eyes searched the building to see if there was any movement in the classes yet. But I also noticed the way her eyes nervously shifted to the street once every few seconds. I wondered if she was expecting someone to meet her.

I noticed I stared for quite a while, when I escaped from my trance by hearing the three loud bangs. The noise came from the big clock and he read that it was three o'clock exactly. That meant 15 more minutes until Austin would come out of the school doors.

That gave him 15 more minutes to look into those gorgeous eyes.

My eyes shifted to the spot where they had been for the past few minutes, to find them look right in his direction.

Laura's POV

What the hell is he looking at?

Was the first thing to think when I noticed that strange guy, standing against the school fence, looking my way rather often. I'd never seen him before, though I haven't been here quite that much. Jason was usually the one picking Ally up from school, because I worked almost every day.

I liked it here, actually. To be out, in the sun, to see Ally more. Now I hardly have a choice, having seen Jason's note on the kitchen table this morning.

Dear Laura,

I think you may have noticed the tension between us. So it shouldn't be a surprise to you as I say I can't take it anymore. The fights are getting worse and it's not good for my health. Because of this, I decided to take a few days off. I'll be going to the south coast for a few days to clear my mind. Don't contact me.

Jason

I couldn't believe he wrote that. ''It's not good for my health'', ''I can't take it anymore'' what a load of bullshit. While I worked all day, I also had to make sure dinner was ready every night, that Ally did all her homework and Jason had his bear at eight o'clock exactly.
And take a few days off? From WHAT exactly? Did he work? No. Did he take care of the house? No. He didn't do shit all day long and still he's the one needing a break?

Well if I was one thing, I was done. Done with him, done with relationships, done with men in general. That's exactly why I couldn't stand the blonde one staring at me like I was a freaking zoo animal.

That's why I decided to stare back. And not just stare, keep glaring at him with the most deadly look I could give him.

But that didn't scare him off. He just kept looking. But not in a creepy way. Okay maybe a little bit creepy, but mostly it looked like he was curious. I'd never seen anyone look that interested in me before. Feeling a little embarrassed, I looked away, to notice him walking my way.

Ross's POV

Okay, I couldn't get over how cute this girl was. As she kept staring at me, I couldn't keep my eyes off her. And as soon as I noticed her blush when she took her gaze off me, I noticed my legs moving and my body getting closer to her.

Apparently I'm gonna talk to her.

Once I was close enough to notice she had a vanilla kind of scent around her, and saw her eyes being even more beautiful up close, I knew I made the right decision.
