Adam's perspective

I left there apartment and went home. what did she mean by "you don't want to wake her? she was so nice yesterday even though I most likely ruined her shirt and looked like a stalker sitting in front of her apartment like that. How was i supposed to know we lived in the same building. Why did i even go over there i mean i already said sorry when it happened did i really need to say it again? Maybe these are just after feelings from my previous relationship. I had dated Katy for over a year, but why would i have feelings for a girl i didn't even know? This is driving me crazy. i laid on my couch and covered my face with my hands. I can't like her can I? but images of her face, her eyes are so pretty the way they shine and her smile its like an angels. No i have to get these thoughts out of my head. i got up and went to my fridge hmm not much food i guess i have to go to the store today, nah ill go later. I took a shower to cool off and hopefully stop these thoughts that where racing through my head.  The shower only made things worse. now i was picturing her in the shower with me! i couldn't really go off of much so it was mostly just her face and blurs but it still freaked me out. why was I thinking of my neighbor this way? i mean we only met twice could she really have that much of an impact on me. i was tearing myself apart in the shower so i got out. i walked around my empty apartment. i lived alone ever since my roommate found some girl and moved in with her. we barley ever talk anymore so i guess that's it with that friendship. i looked at the clock it was about 1:30-ish so i put on my shoes and coat and went to the store for food. I was just minding my business when i saw her. it was Eve in the store, why am i seeing her everywhere now? I hid behind the isle hopping she didn't see me. I went the long way to the register to pay for my things and get out. how pathetic i kept thinking i'm running from i girl i barley even know. 

when i got back to my apartment i felt a sigh of relief wash over me. I put the food away and sank into my couch. the thoughts of her rushed over me again. i cant live like this i have to get to know her but how? I heard a knock at the door. It caught me off guard i never have visitors and i don't remember getting anything that would be delivered.  i opened the door and she was there. I bet i looked like a complete idiot to her. i nervously said a hello but it made me sound like she had a gun. she laughed a little and said hi back."my roommate said you came by earlier?" i was shocked i totally forgot about that."oh ya i'm sorry for spilling soda all over you yesterday." she laughed again like i said something weird. "its fine its just a shirt besides a little soda won't hurt it." she looked so happy like she never had a bad day in her life. i chuckled and awkwardly said ya. Smooth move i said to myself. we sat in awkward silence i panicked and instead of ending the conversation there i invited her in. What was i thinking I cant have her in my house i'm freaking out just having her live across the hall from me. she smiled and said why not. I moved away from the door to let her in. she moved over to the couch and the scent of her washed over me. I couldn't believe how crazy I've been acting. shes just my neighbor can't neighbors get together and talk? then i realized she was all the way over on my couch alone and i was standing over here like an idiot still holding the door open. i closed it and walked over to her and sat down. we started an awkward conversation and then she asked me why i was so sad yesterday. i froze did i really look that sad? did she pity me was that the only reason she was here? i told her i had just gotten out of a relationship about a week ago and i guess i wasn't fully aware of my face. i mean sure she broke up with me but i was over her after about a day. so i have no idea why i looked so sad. After time passed it got less awkward and we actually had a great conversation. we talked about our childhood, favorite things, and hobbies. she was amazing and her laugh made my heart stop. she looked so intrigued with everything i was saying.  was i really that interesting? soon it was time for her to go so i opened the door for her. she thanked me and walked to her apartment. i felt my heart die a little when she left. What was i doing with my life. was i really falling for his girl?

hours passed and she was still on my mind. i kept making up different scenarios where we would get together. one went as far as we had kids! i mean i was picturing everything with her. her at the beach, my house, even in my bed cuddling me. i couldn't stop thinking about her.  she drove me crazy. i gave up and laid on my bed letting thoughts of her fill my mind. i skipped dinner after screwing it up so many times. i went through three bags of roman and each one turned out either burnt or not cooked long enough. why was i having such a hard time with something as small as a bowl of noodles. i guess i was just gonna have to get used to it.
