A Beautiful Disaster

Chapter 19

"What about we just, go out a couple of time and see it goes", she said. I smiled and nodded. "I'd like that."

I took a sip of my coffee.

"What about your girlfriend?", I asked.

"She's not really my girlfriend. I don't know what things are. To me it just feels like friends with little benefits. But she's uh, it's complicated", she said.

"I've got time", I said as I took another sip of my coffee.

She smiled.

"Well, a friend introduced us to each other. She was cool and, we went out a couple of times. After about 3 dates I wasn't that into her so I told her that. But she kept calling and texting me. She was basically turned out to be a stalker. She thinks we're a couple, but I've told her we're not. And I think she just doesn't want to face reality.

"Then tell her again", I said. "I've told her that for about 600 times now. But she keeps coming back. It's almost like she's keeping me hostaged. I can't go anywhere or do anything without her permission. I don't know why she's so obsessed with me", she said and giggled.

"Well, I don't blame her. I mean, look at you", I said. She hid her face in her hands, letting me know she was blushing.

I couldn't keep my eyes off of her.

Her smile was as mesmerising as before. Her eyes had the light in them again. She was absolutely beautiful.

"Dems", she said snapping me out of my thoughts. "Yeah?", I said smiling. "You're staring." This time, I blushed. "I'm sorry." She smiled.

"So, what about now? Does this count as a first date?", she asked. "Nah, our first date is tonight", I said. She raised an eyebrow as a smirk grew on her face. "Really?", she asked. I smiled. "Yes", I said confidently. "Well okay then. Can't wait."

It was like I was falling for her all over again. Her smile gave me that warm feeling inside, just like it did when we first met. Her raspy voice made me weak as hell. And her hands.. How much I wanted them to just touch me, everywhere.

I let out a deep sigh.

"Are you okay?", she asked. I nodded. "I'm great", I said smiling.

We finished our coffee.

"Some more?", she asked. "Sure."
She smiled and stood up. She grabbed our cups and walked to the front to get a refill.

I took out my phone. I had felt it vibrate about 10 minutes ago. It was a text from Lucia.

"Hey. I haven't heard from you. I hope everything's okay xx."

I quickly replied to her before I laid my eyes on my true love again.

"Here you go", she said. I smiled. "Thank you."

"So, tonight? What's the plan?", she asked. "Just a very romantic dinner", I said smiling. "Really?" "Yes really. You'll see."

I took a sip of my coffee.

"Are you planning on staying at that hotel forever?", I asked. "Not really. I'm searching for my own place but it's really hard." I giggled. "I know. It took me about 7 months before I finally got my place", I said. "3 more months to go then", she said.
"At least you have company", I said giggling.

She raised an eyebrow.

"Kidding right? I want her out of there as soon as possible", she said.
"You should totally come live with me", I said. "Maybe I will." "Good. Although, I'm a bit messy", I said smiling. "Really? Wouldn't know."

We both laughed.

"Another refill?", I asked as we had both finished our coffee.
"No thanks. I should uh, get back to Cassidy before she kills me." I nodded. "I get it", I said. We stood up and walked outside.

"Well I'll see you tonight then", she said. "I'll pick you up at 7." "Can't wait."

I watched her walk away.

All I wanted was to just, kiss her. So I did.

I ran after her and grabbed her arm, making her turn around.

Without any hesitation, I cupped her face and crashed my lips on hers.
