I pulled into the school parking lot like I did every morning with my cup of hot coffee. I got out and walked over to my usual spot underneath the old oak tree in the courtyard. I sat with my coffee and book in hand, I looked over accross the yard and saw a pair of bright blue eyes staring at me. I gave a weak uncomfortable smile toward the boy but he just looked down.
-Friday night-
There was a knock on my door and I opened it to a sopping wet blue eyed boy.
"Oh, I didn't know this was your house. I'll just go." He said looking down.
"Nonsense, get in here your lips are blue. You must be freezing. Come on. I'll get you some new clothes." I told him ushering him in.
"I don't think your clothes would fit me." He stated as a small grin formed on his porcilain face.
"Not mine. My brother left some clothes here last time he stayed over. Here let me go get you a towel. You can take a shower if you'd like?" I told him showing him the bathroom. I brought him some of my brothers old clothes and a pair of new boxers I thought would fit him. After his shower he sat on the couch uncomfortably.
"Why do you keep staring at me at school? Its every morning. I catch you looking at me all the time." I asked.
"I just thought you were really pretty and I was studying the master piece I had in front of me. I've even drawn you once or twice. I just was always to scared to walk up to you especially after your boyfriend or somebody came up to me and said I was creeping you out and told me to rot in hell like the rest of the scum of the earth. I thought I creeped you out so I kept my distance." He confessed never looking me in the eyes. I grabbed his chin and he flinched. This boy has been hurt. I got him to look at me.
"Sam? Right?" I asked as he nodded, "okay. You never creeped me out I just always wondered what it would've been like to actually talk to you. You've drawn me?" I asked.
"Yes. I had the perfect lighting and the perfect position while you sat at that tree with your book in hand. You were so beautiful and you still are." He said blushing at the last part. I blushed as well. I moved closer to him and sat next to him on the couch.
"You know, you're not so bad yourself." I told him and gently cupped his cheek pulling him in. I kissed him softly and sweetly. He was perfect. The perfect stranger.
