Enchanter (A Grant Gustin FanFiction)

10. Finally Alone

Allegro

I feel my mobile vibrating in my pocket, the deep sensation tickling my skin. I try to ignore it and concentrate on Chopin, but the thing vibrates again and again. Frustrated, I take in a deep breath. Whoever this is, is going to get the worst of me. Who dares to intrude between me and music? I take out my phone from my pocket and my vexation grows the moment I see it is an unknown number. Clicking on the green button, I lift the phone to my ears. Immediately, a voice sounds from the other end and butterflies erupt in my stomach. 

"Is this Allegro Cassidy?" Of course, it is Grant. 

"Yes. Please do tell me what is the reason you have been calling Mr. Gustin?" I say and I literally feel his grin on the other side of the line. 

"I had been wondering, Ms. Cassidy, if you are free on the upcoming Sunday. You see, we are going to the farm house and since my father has grown a sudden dedication towards you, he would like it if you join us."He says. 

"Are you asking me out on a date, Mr.Gustin?" 

"If going to a farmhouse and spending a lot of time with each other is called a date, then certainly."

"Of course. I would love to go." I say and I hear him sigh.

I sit on the kitchen counter, waiting for Grant to knock at the door. I look at the clock. Suddenly, the doorbell rings, snapping me out of my thoughts. I take in a deep breath and walk towards the door, a grin plastered on my face. Am going to see my Adonis finally. You don't expect me to have a grim face. 
I turn the door knob and open the door to see my dark Adonis standing in front of me. He wears his usual white shirt with blue denims and a s usual, looks breathtaking. I take a moment for my yes to go through the body of this man and his every movement as he reaches over to pull me into a hug. He smells like perfume and freshness and a n unfamiliar smell- he smells like Grant.

"Hey."He says and I wrap my arms around his waist. 

"We should be leaving." I say and he pulls back, his face reddened a bit. 

"Uhh- yeah." He says. I yell Willa a goodbye and she yells back and I close the dorr behind me before leaving the house with Grant. 

Tom greets me as soon as he sees me. He embraces me and kisses both my cheeks. 

"It's always such a pleasure to see you, Allegro."He says and smiles, having no idea whatsoever that 5 minutes back, I had been mentally unraveling his son's clothing.
"The feeling's mutual, I guess." I say and he gives me a grin. His grin reminds me of Grant's, they both have that shy and kind way of smiling that is no match for my smile.

Once we settle in the car with Grant and me on the back seat and Tom in the front, Tom begins chatting with the driver enthusiastically, talking to him about the perfect weather, the route, and the farm house. The driver too answers back, with the same enthusiasm as Tom. 

"Talks too much, doesn't he?" Grant says and I smile. 

"Yeah, but that's okay."I say and he takes in a deep breath, placing his hand over mine, sending electricity through my body. I feel the familiar heat coursing through my veins, making me feel alive. I try to smile, and all it comes out as is a tiny grin. His smirk grows and it shows that he is well aware of what's happening inside of me. To intensify the effect, he slowly brushes my knuckles with his thumbs and it takes everything inside of me not to drop my pants at the moment. 

"You should listen to something." He says. I immediately pull back my hand and rummage through my bag. I couldn't have left them at home. My beats have to be with me. Unable to find them, I give up and a frown makes its way onto my face. 

"What?"Grant asks.

"I left my headphones at home."

"Oh, that's okay. You can use mine." He says and pulls out a white beats, handing it to me. I take it from him, plugging it into my cell and switching on my playlist. I look out of the window, and watch the city as it passes by me, us slowly leaving the huge skyscrapers behind leading into the beautiful greenery of the countryside.

I blink several times, thinking that this is an illusion. Its got to be. My mouth drops open as we pull into the driveway of the beautiful building and Grant says,"We're here."

I open the door, get out of the car and wait for everyone else to do the same. Tom looks at me, his grin once more reminding me of his son, standing next to me. "Looks nice to you?" He asks me. 
"Yeah-yeah, I mean its gorgeous." I say and break my eyes way from the house. 

"Lets go in." Tom says. Grant takes my hand, sending a jolt of electricity through me. 

Grant

I look at Allegro as she looks at the house. A small smile creeps up onto my face. She looks different today. She looks innocent, messed up and for the first time I can actually say that she has flaws too. She is not perfect, she has imperfections today. She is dressed up so casually today in a simple top and shorts, her hair let down into loose waves and the sunlight highlighting her blonde hair and pink lips. I smile at this beautiful girl standing next to me. When dad says we should go in and walks forward, Allegro lifts herself on her feet to reach my ears, and whispers into my ears," I hope you have a room upstairs." She says and I sigh, feeling a bit disappointed at the sexual predator who is back. Doesn't she know I was enjoying watching her amazed and stunned, her face showing off innocence? Of course she won't. I never told her. 

We walk into the house and I take in the smell. It's all too familiar, but this time I have this damsel beside me. I look around the house and everything is same since the last year- the white sofa, the floor length windows, the bookshelf, the table, the curved television on the wall, the drinks section, the white curtains slightly pulled apart, the family wallpaper, the wooden staircase to the second floor- everything is same and as beautiful as it was. Like every time, my eyes last a little longer on the family picture.   

  Dad turns towards us, his voice loud enough in the silent house. 

"Let's get fresh and take some rest. We take our lunch after that." He says and turns to head to his room. Allegro turns her head towards me. 

"Finally."She says, the smirk making its way onto her face.

"Finally what?" I ask.

"Finally we're alone." She says and I can't stop the grin that makes its way onto my face.
