The Guy is wanted (book 2 of the Girl is Wanted)

Chapter 18. Rufus Peterson.

I want us back, I really do. It's just not so easy anymore. I get one glimpse of her old self and she blocks me out. I don't know what to do to show her that she doesn't have to be scared of losing me again. I'm hear forever, I hope so at least. I want her back, I want my girl back. But, right now, there is lots of things that need to be done before we can even think of fixing us. We have to save the world right now, so that plus our relationship is going to be hard. It'll be really hard for her after, if there is a after. But, I'll make sure there is.

I think of all the possibilities that could happen, Marriage, Children, getting a job in the FBI like me and the guys always wanted, Seeing my brother again. 

My brother is alive, and i am as happy as i can, but some of that happiness isn't all there, because I am trying so hard to let Amelia no that she doesn't have to be afraid.

I've been in the bathroom for fiffteen minutes, a little too long.

I stand and wet my hair in the wooden sink. The water is so cold. 

I take my shirt off and pull my pants off. I look different. I have lots of scars and bruises from all the things I've been through. I have hairs starting to show on my face. I should probably shave. My hair needs a shave as well. i grab my shaver and shaving creame from my bag and shave in the freezing water.

"Rufus, You done yet, I like really need to pee", Amelia says on the other side of the curtian.

"Um, sure, I'll wait a moment", I say opening the curtian with shaving creame still on my face. She steps back, her eyes are roaming all over me. I grin as I see her cheeks get red with embarassment.

"Sorry, um," she starts as she passes me. her arm grases mine as she passes. she closes the curtian and I stand there with a goofy grin on my face.

Two minutes later she appears and I go back in, not closing the curtian. I don't really need to close the curtian, I'm just shaving. I don't want to close the curtian, because I love the effect I have on her when I am shirtless. She can't help but stare.

"Have you ever heard of closing the curtian," she says.

"Yeah, it's just I don't want to, just leave it open. I know you love the view", I say as I see her blushing through the mirror.

"Fine, I'm going to get dinner," she says as her eyes linger on my chest. I hear her parents door shut and know she's gone.

I throw my razor into the sink frustrated.

One word and she just pushes me out, pushes me out trying to make me think otherwise. This has got to stop, it's making both of us go crazy.

I start back up on shaving and try to pass the time by making it perfect.

Knock.

"Come in", I say.

The door opens and Suta stands there. He's alone.

"Damn, all the bathrooms are in use," he says comming in.

"What you need?" I ask.

"Nothing, just wanted to talk and also shower, but i'll have to wait till your done," he says.

I decide to let him have the bathroom. I wet my face and dry it with one of the rough white towels on the towel rack by the shower.

"Let's talk then", I say as he crosses his arms.

"Okay," he says.

We stand in complete silence, before he speaks.

"Do you know why my sisters blocking everyone out?" he asks.
