CHAPTER 1

TREVOR’S POV

I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. Who the fuck is calling at this early hour? I’m still sleeping, you idiot! I got up and grabbed my phone from the bedside table.

“Hello? Trev? This is Jeremy. Dude, where are you? It’s 8:20, man. We have a presentation at the city hall at 9 remember? Are you on the way yet?”

Suddenly, my eyes wide open and check the alarm clock. “Fuck! I forgot to set my alarm! Fuck, Jeremy. I’m sorry. I’m on my way now. I’ll be there asap ok? Bye!”

Shit! I was so late and I didn’t have time to take a shower so I quickly jumped out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash my face and brushed my teeth. After putting on my work suit and managing my wild wavy dark hair, I grabbed my briefcase along with the plans and drawings, I drove like I was being pursued to get there in time. After parking the car in the parking garage, I ran quickly to the city hall with the hope that the meeting had not even begun yet. As I was about to dash out of the elevator at the right floor of the city hall, something bumped straight into my chest and I fell backwards into the elevator and all my plans and drawings were scattered all over the floor.

“What the fuck! Ouch, my wrist! What the hell?” Then I looked up at the thing that had hit me and I realized it was a boy and he had fallen on his butt as well.

“ Ow! Well that definitely is gonna bruise. I’m so sorry, sir. I wasn’t looking. Again, I am so sorry. Do you need help to get up?”, said the boy and he quickly got up and held the elevator door for me. I just stared at him angrily and groaned loudly at him. I was already super late, so I just got up and quickly grabbed all my stuff and walked out of the elevator. The boy helped me to gather all my stuff and passed them to me as the elevator doors closed behind us.

“Watch next time you walk, punk! This wrist definitely hurts now and I am super late for my meeting, no thanks to you!” I looked down at him and he just stared at me not saying anything. Finally, he spoke.

“Punk? Really, dude. Get off your high horse. I already apologized. Douchebag!” Just like that the boy quickly got around me and pressed the elevator button. I just looked at him in awe that this punk had the audacity to tell me off. When he turned his face to look back at me, I smirked at him. But before I could say anything else, he looked down and stared at the floor looking all submissive and apologetic and I didn’t have the hearts to scold him anymore. I could totally see him blushing with the cute red blush on his cheeks. That's cute, I thought. At the same time he looked so young. I was thinking he was probably in still in high school. Then, he looked back at me and just stared at me with that soft expression on his face and that soft, beautiful eyes. Then, all of the sudden, it felt like a cold wind blew at me and I shivered. Something had just struck me. The boy looked so innocent and beautiful. And that eyes! Were they blue or green? I couldn’t tell but I could definitely see some golden speck around the pupils. He just looked so gorgeous and inviting. Wait, what am I even saying? That’s definitely creepy. Fuck!

He spoke up. “Hello? What are you looking at? I said I was sorry. Ah, forget it. What a tool.” Right after he waved me off, the elevator doors opened. He walked in with my eyes still on him with shock I was sure shown on my face, and he was gone just like that once the doors closed. I couldn’t believe it. He got the last words! Nobody has ever talked to me like that before. I was still in shocked that I was pretty much speechless after looking at that face and that mesmerizing eyes. Those eyes! I could definitely look at them forever/ After a few moments, I heard somebody calling for me.

“Hey, Trev. What’s up with you? Close your damn mouth, buddy. Bugs could get in there”. Just like that, I closed my mouth and turned around and found him standing in front of me. I shook my head to clear my mind from what had just happened and smiled back at him.
