My Little World

Chapter Fourteen

Tara's POV

It's been a week since Xavier and mine date and I haven't talked to him since. He waited outside our apartment for almost a day till one of the residents in my apartment called the cops and told them that he's some sort of stalker.

Xavier tried to explain but his story did sound like a stalker one so he had to leave but that didn't stop him from calling me continuously every ten minutes and sending me endless messages.

I want to forgive him and let go all of this but I'm a wuss and I'm so scared that might ask me questions that I wouldn't be able to answer so I'm choosing to avoid. But I do miss him. Keeping his dreadful deed aside, we did had a great date. It romantic, personal and Xavier's cook makes amazing food. It felt nice and so naturally, I miss that feeling.

I heard the doorbell and rushed to open it. I opened it in one swing motion and there stood Xavier with a bouquet of roses. I opened the door wide open for him for him to enter. I took the roses to kitchen to find a vase for them.

"I know you're mad and I'm incredibly sorry. It was stupid and inappropriate and totally out of line. I was just so desperate to get you on board that I didn't think." I put the roses in the vase with water and kept in on the kitchen counter. I looked at Xavier who was rambling about how sorry he is. Remorse is visible in his eyes and the desperation for my forgiveness.

I walked upto him and ke kept speaking regardless. I placed my hand on his cheek which stopped from rambling anymore and then locked my lips with his. I missed him so much and I don't want to miss him anymore. He shouldn't have to explain so much because I'm insecure.

He finally relaxed and placed his hand lower on my hips, pushing me closer to himself. I gripped hair strongly, trying hard not to melt in the softness of his lips.

I felt him smile during our and pulled away. I smiled at him too "So I'm forgiven, I assume?"

I put my arms around his neck "One could say that. I'm sorry for being such a hard ass."

He waved it off and kissed the tip of my nose. "Where's Emma?"

I was about to answer when his phone rang. It was Sapphire.

"Bad time, sister. I'm very busy" he said and smirked at me.

"Xavier, she's here. Come home. Now"

As soon as Xavier heard those words, his smile dropped and he froze. I didn't know who 'she' is but she sure knows how to freeze his blood. Before I could ask who 'she' is, he ran out asking me to meet at his place.

I don't think I've been so rushed. I practically threw my baggy t-shirt dress and jumped into a summer dress and drove to Xavier's. I practically drove past the speed limit because of the way Sapphire sounded on the phone, she was so cryptic and she's never cryptic.

I had no clue what happened with the half hour of my life but something in the situation makes me extremely worried. I had no idea who 'she' is but I'm positive I'm not going to like her.

I jumped out of my car and raced to Xavier's. I opened his door in one swing motion and then bend down to catch my forgotten breath, that's when I saw her.

She looked like she just came back from the runway. She had perfect hair, perfect eyes, perfect face, perfect legs and she was wearing a perfect dress that fit her perfect body. I don't think I've ever been this insecure of looks but compared to her I look less than normal. My hair were tied in a loose pony with strands of hair coming out because of all the rushing, I was wearing a pair of flats since rushing ofcourse, and I had no make up on and I'm pretty sure my face looks like I'm severely dehydrated. Standing next to her I'm pretty sure I look like some homeless girl.
