Lavinia's POV
I was walking home from a photo shoot with Kendall Jenner. She is so gorgeous and nice! No wonder she's a model. I had one headphone in my ear and the other was caught in my scarf I wore. I wore a white loose shirt with boyfriend jeans and tan booties. As I turned the corner I saw the bookstore with a car in front of it. I started to put away my iPod in my bag when I got to the door.
I turned the handle to the red door and heard a bell that rung out into the store. I heard Ruth laughing in the back. Maybe one of her cats fell over again, they fight and do that. Her being so old she finds animals very amusing. I walked by the counter into the hidden corner of the store. It's between the non-fiction and mystery shelves, aka Ruth's favorite genres. It has a nice comfy couch with a pretty table and small carpet.
When I turned the last shelf I saw Brendon sitting with Ruth and playing with Yule. I nearly dropped my camera when I saw him.
Ruth noticed me first and decided to greet me with the upmost enthusiasm.
" Oh Lavinia. This young and handsome man has been waiting for you for around a half an hour! But don't worry, I told him all about you!" She got close to me and in a whisper said
" And he told me all about him too " She said with a slight wink.
I rolled my eyes at Ruth and began to look at Brendon. He looked at me with a reddish tint on his cheeks and began to stand up.
He walked over to Ruth and shake her hand but she went for a hug.
" Well, I loved our talk, and tea, Ruth but now I must leave and talk to Lavinia. Thank you again, I might come by again " He said when she pulled away. I took Brendon's hand and let him up the stairwell. I could hear Ruth slightly giggling as we left. I brought him up to my door and unlocked it. We went in and I threw my stuff on my coat hanger.
" Since I feel like you aren't leaving anytime soon, let's get comfy" I said as I threw myself down on the couch. He sat on top of me and I let out an oomph .
" Oh come on I'm not that heavy!" He yelled.
I pushed him off and flopped on the floor next to him. I stared up at the ceiling waiting for one of us to break the ice. Brendon decided to get off the ground and pull me up with him. Being the small one I am with his incredible strength, I got flung into his chest.
" Oh, I'm sorry. This is the second time you've bumped into me, Green." Brendon said with a sly smile.
I slapped his chest and went into my kitchen. I hopped up on the counter and decided to start a conversation.
" So, why are you here, my good sir?"
Brendon sat down at the kitchen chair and decided to talk.
" After yesterday I realized I like you a lot. And I really hope you don't die because I've known for for less than a week and I know there's something about you that is unlike anyone else I know. I want to help complete your list, just in case you do, sadly, move on."
I jumped off the kitchen counter and began to approach him gently.
" Brendon, what is wrong with you? I am not special or important why me? Shouldn't you let me die? You can have any other girl and you choose the lost cause..."
He stood up and took my hands in his. His hands were big and rough while mine were small and soft.
" You are amazing and talented and I need you in my life. I want to do this because I really want you to enjoy life. I know that this will be amazing and I can't wait to see how you accomplish everything you've always desired. I want to be there for that because I... I already bought a plane ticket for Pennsylvania and a ticket for the Appalachian Mountain hike."
My jaw dropped.
"Brendon, what do you expect us to do? Fly across the world just for a picture?"
"That's the plan, babe."
