Reasons To Stay • Brandon Flynn

Chapter 6: Damn, That Girl

Brandon's pov

I was looking at my phone, checking the time. Its only eight fifty in the morning. No wonder why that girl was nowhere to be seen. She promised me she will meet me here at 9.

That Nadine girl.

I don't know why i could be so stupid and suddenly got the nerves to ask her out. We just met, i know. And that was cliché if i call myself falling for her at the first sight. Believe it or not, there's no such a thing.

She's very beautiful. The way she smiled, so captivating. Those blue eyes of hers, are the most beautiful eyes i have ever laid on. The moment when she touched me, i flinched from the contact but as soon as her skin left mine, i felt something was missing. When i took her in my embrace, i could feel the warmth ran through my body and filled my heart. I don't know why i felt that way.

And i could tell that she's different. She's not like other girls i'd known. I don't know why, eventhough we just met and barely know each other.

That is probably why i feel the need to ask her out, getting to know her better.

I didn't know how long i have been looking down on my phone but my neck felt hurt. I locked my phone and looked up. That was when i saw her.

My face lit up immediately.

"Its not even 9am but you're already here." She said with a soft smile as soon as she reached me.

"I hate making someone else wait. And in this case its you," i returned her smile.

"You're acting extra mr. Flynn,"

I just smiled to her statement. "So where to first?" I asked.

"I just know a perfect place to go," she said, grinning as wide as ever, showing me her perfect white teeth.

"Really?" I beamed at her.

"Yeah. Just stick with me." She said, that beautiful smile never left her face.

"Here we are," she announced excitedly.

I narrowed my eyebrows. "Beach?" I questioned.

"Why? You don't like it?" She looked at me, her expression dropped.

That was not my intention to make her upset but this place was so packed and i hate being in the crowd.

"No, its fine. I, uh," i stopped speaking.

"Yeah?" She was trying to read my face, frowning and crossing her arms over her stomach.

"This place is packed," i told her blankly.

She just chuckled as a response.

I gave her a puzzled look. "Whats so funny?"

She shook her head, twitching up one corner of her lips. "Follow me." she commanded.

I just stood there, watching her taking several steps away from me.

She stopped walking when she realized i wasn't by her side. She turned back around and moved over to me. "Come on," she said, now taking my hand in hers.

I felt electricity was running through my veins. I shivered from the contact of her skin yet i didn't want to let go of her hand at the same time.
