Cold hearted, ruthless, murderer, handsome, heartthrob are few of the things I have been called but no one ever called me adorable because I was not adorable.
But in some twisted sense, Magenta found me adorable.
It was six in the evening after my shoot and usually by this time I am either drinking or in the fighting arena to beat the shit out of people. But now I was in the gym waiting for Magenta to come. I was supposed to pick her up but I was late and now Ash knew about her so he was doing the job for me.
It was her carefree beautiful laugh that alerted me to her arrival. The laugh was magnetic because the first time I met her, it was that laugh that fixated me on her. At that time it made me envy her because she could laugh so wonderfully and not having a care in the world but now it made me wonder how she did that.
Ash was smiling and telling her about something and she threw back her head and again, laughed. At that time I realized this was my favorite sound in the world. And I carelessly imagined her laughing in the early morning lying in the bed with me.
I winced at my mental state and turned away before she could catch me ogling her.
Off limits Jeremy, she is not healthy for you.
I have told lies all my life and I added another one in my head.
"Hey, Jeremy." She said cheerfully and I gave her a questioning look.
What was she so happy about? Did her foster brother die or something or that Jack-ass proposed her?
"We are going to train for fighting Magenta." I reminded her.
"Yeah I know, I just feel safe around you." She said it simply because it was a simple statement but I was like a fucking romantic guy in that moment for some screwed up reason.
It made my chest swell with pride and gave a weird warm gushy feeling in my body.
I couldn't help but scan her appearance even though she was wearing a grey loose t-shirt and her usual tattered jeans. I had many charities, I could buy her clothes.
You are crossing a line, Jeremy.
But she needed them and I can do that much for her, she was helping me through some tough things.
I ignored the thought and decided to take her shopping after we were done training.
"Are you athletic?" I asked her to keep my thoughts occupied or else I will keep thinking about kissing her.
It was her fault, she should not have hugged me the way she did. I am a guy after all.
"I have been running all my life so if you take that into account then yes."
"It will take a lot of training for you to hit someone hard because you are so light. But I can teach you some basic punches for now."
I started with her trying to hit the heavy bag with the right stance so that she didn't end up hurting her wrist in the process.
