Fifty Shades In Love

Chapter 10

She is looking at me like she is lost in thoughts. What happened? Then she shakes her head to say something. Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned it. Holy Crap. Me and my big mouth.

She drags in a deep breath and starts to talk,

"Well...", my phone vibrates I look and see that its an unnamed number. I don't bother picking. I turn back to look at Angel and she looks like she is lost in though. The waiter comes to drop our food, she looks up and says ' thank you'.

"Are you okay?", I ask and she looks at me, "because you're picking at your food".

"I'm sorry", she says and starts eating her food. I also start digging into my food. After about ten seconds of eating, I can feel Angel's eyes boring into my skull. I look up and I see her looking at me and smiling

"What?", I ask as I look up at her.

"Are you always this hungry?",she says with a giggle.

"Well considering the fact that I had to leave home quite early and I don't eat late at nights,yes I am always this hungry", I chuckle and she giggles.

"I was beginning to think I was ajerk", she smiles and says.

"No you weren't. I just had a lot on my mind that's all". I decide not to probe her on her family again because I don't want her to zone out once again.

In the next ten minutes we have finished eating and we have decided to take a walk to while away time. I wanted to pay for our meal and I can't believe she brought out her own fucking cash to pay for her food. What the fuck? I insisted on paying and she was actually pissed and walked out of the restaurant. I think I have met someone with "The Anastasia Grey tantrum".
My dad said my mom used to behave like this when they were dating. I had to do a lot of work to make her smile again. What is it with women and mood swings?

" So where do you want us to go", I ask her after walking a block from where we are.

"Ummmmm, we could just walk", she says with a smile.

"You really like smiling don't you?", I say with a chuckle.

"Yeah, it relaxes the face muscles. You know it really suits you when you smile". That makes me smile. I smile at her and she blushes.

"And it suits you when you blush under this pretty tanned skin of yours", she blushes harder. I could get used to this.

"So you know you never told me your surname". Oh no she didn't. If I tell her she's going to freak out. On the other hand if we go out another time and I decide to get her something she'll let me pay for it because I can afford it. Oh shut up Grey, that's if there'll even be a next time. Here goes.

"That's because you never asked. Its Grey though". Please don't freak out. Please,please,please.

"Grey. It sounds sharp. Theodore Grey! Sounds good"Wait what!! She doesn't even care. She doesn't know who I am..awesome!

"What about yours?,

"Carter, Angela Carter"

"Really. That name sounds bossy. And evil", she giggles.

"My name sounds evil? Wait till my mom hears that. So...you have a little sister huh? I bet she's pretty and cute." Why do girls always describe themselves like that.

"That she is. She looks a lot like my mom and...she could be a real pain in the ass. But I love her. Everyone does. She's a daddy's girl and its like she's got all the males in the family wrapped around her little finger even our grandparents and uncles". She chuckles and has a sad expression on her face.

"So you speak fluent Spanish?", I ask her to get her mind off whatever she's thinking of.

"That's kind of necessary when you have a Spanish speaking freak which is my mom around the house. Besides my she made it compulsory for me and my brother in our schools till I got to senior year in high school. It became an habit so I learnt it in college. Although,my brother speaks it better that I do ."

"Wow. Wait a minute, you went to college?" I am so fucking...

"Of course I did. Washington State University."

"Are you fucking kidding me? That was my mum's school. So tell me what did you major in?"

"Psychology. I really love talking to people especially kids."

"That's awesome. But you have so much passion for it, why didn't you get a job or something?"

"Um, that's because a lot happened before I was able to go to college. Max had to give up some of his savings and two years for me to go to college. I want to do everything to be able to be repay them back and know I appreciate what they've done for me. Max was supposed to be the one graduating college last year not me. He needs to know it was worth it. They've actually tried to talk me out of this you know, but I want them to know what they did was worth it."

She stops on the side walk where we are walking at the looks up at me and I know she is serious about this. The wind is blowing her curly hair I reach dowh to tuck her hair behind her ear and  and look into her brown eyes which are so mesmerizing rights now and her lips... Shit her lips. If we don't leave here now I might not be able to control myself.
I look up and I see we are in front of an ice cream shop.

"You want an ice cream?", she smiles and says,

"Yeah, I'd like that." I take her hand and I get the strangest feeling of electricity run through my body. She must have felt the same thing too cause she looks at our knotted hands and looks back at my face and gives me her cute dimpled smile. We go into the ice cream shop and I actually wonder what she is hiding from me and she feels she can't tell me. Its not like I'm expecting her to tell me everything but I'm not going to bug her on it. I'll get her to tell me everything but I'll not force her. When we get into the ice cream shop I get a vanilla flavor ice cream, she tells me she loves it with chocolate flavor so I get her one too. We really walked to places and when I check my watch its 3pm. She tells me she has to open the bar by 4:30 so we start to head back. We talked a little in the car and we actually had a nice time.

"We're here", I say as I pull up in front of the bar.

"Hold that thought", I say as I see her trying to open the door. I get out of the car and open her side door for her to come out.

"What a gentleman",she says as she comes out of the car.

"Thanks for hanging out with me today"

"You really know how to show a girl a good time. Thank you".

"For what?"

"For keeping up with my tantrum", I smile at her and then I'm looking at her and she's looking at me also. When the stare gets heated she walks up to my face and breaks  the spell when she kisses my right cheek.

"I should go inside. I'll see you later?"

"Yeah. Yeah of course. I'll call you"

"OK. Bye". I wave at her as she goes into the bar and I into my car and drive off.
