Give Me Love

Arthur

Victoria is acting weird today. It's like something's bothering her lately. Did I said something to her that made her upset? I guess I haven't. Besides on what I said on the boutique. It can't be. She shouldn't be affected by my words. Unless she feels different for me.

I laugh at myself. I assume too much that she's going to like me. That won't happen. Never in a billion years. I guess I'm not her type and I will never be her type.

I sigh knowing that I assumed that she'll likes me. "Arthur?" Victoria knocked. I got up as fast as I could and open it for her. Her head is down, facing the floor, "What's up?" she tilt her head and her eyes catches me off guard, "Veronica is looking for you." then left. Was that all? Veronica can knock at my door. She knows that I'm in here. I got up and went to her room.

Veronica is sleeping. She's really asleep. I want to ask Victoria why was that. But instead, I headed back to my room.

I gasp when I saw Victoria sitting on the edge of my bed, "Hey," was all I got, "What's up?" I tried to ignore her stare.

"Nothing." she says and got up and went out. What the hell is wrong with her lately? She's not like this after what I said when were on kitchen. Does it upset her? Why?

I wanted to sleep but I can't, Victoria's action is bothering me. I got up and went downstairs and head to the kitchen to get some water. I gulp the water and headed to the living room to full myself with entertainment but she's already sitting on the couch. I came here to forget her but she's here, too. What a nice situation I encountered.

When she's around, my heart can't help but skip a beat. Whenever she stares at me, sparks everywhere. Whenever she give that smile, my heart leap, trying to escape from it's cage. What does this means? Am I falling for her? Does I have a feelings for her? Of course not. I'm done with girls. But Victoria is not very impossible to fall in love with. She's a type of girl that every man could fall in love. I don't know. I guess it's too early for me to fall. I know we still got time to bond, to hang out, to do responsibilities and to know each other. I might say I'm done with girls but when I saw Victoria, I guess there's a hope in me. There's a hope that I could love again. But why so early? I should give myself a time to know her better. Maybe these feelings I got inside is just temporary. Let me observe.

I sit next to her. She's watching The Flash. I guess she likes The Flash. I also like this movie. The speed of Barry Allen is also the speed of my heart whenever Victoria calls me by my name, "Arthur?" here it goes. My heart is beating as fast as The Flash can ran. I hummed just to answer her.

"Thank you." she smiles. And my heart is trying to escape from it's cage.

"For what?" I lied

"Stop acting like you don't know."

"That's okay, Victoria. Don't be scared, I won't hurt your little princess." she smiles and focus herself on watching the television.

I want to resign in the company already and apply officially as Veronica's father and Victoria's husband.

I picked up my phone and dial for a pizza. I know we just ate but I feel hungry already. This eating disorder though. "Who are you calling?" I like the way she asks me like we're a real couple. "Secret." I smile and she just shrug and focus on watching television, again.

Minutes later the door bell ring. "Lemme," I got up before she can get up, "Just prepare some juice." I commanded and she just follows.

I open the door and receive the pizza and pay. The juice is already on the table. Her expression turned in a frown, "What?" I questioned, "Nothing."

I let her get her slice again and again until we finish the first box. "Round 2?" she asks. She laugh as I nod. I watch her as she laugh. I let myself fall whenever she laugh. It's very impossible to hold myself from falling in love with her.
