After our brief run in with Roman my day took an entirely different turn. I received a text message from Dimitri requesting I meet him at the gym area after supper. I safely assumed we were not going to be gyming together after supper so of course I became super excited. The excitement had taken me over to such an extent that I had butterflies fluttering around in my stomach for the entire day leading up to dinner. I tried my best to dress as casual as possible to try and look over the top done. I left my hair loose, threw on a pair of black jeans, a black jersey and my favorite pair of black boots. I examined myself in the mirror before leaving. A touch of mascara on my eyelashes were as far as it went with make up. I think I looked good, but not trying too hard for Dimitri. With that stated, I left the room.
I had dinner with Carmen in the school's canteen area, but I honestly could not stomach to eat much of the cottage pie they were serving with a side salad. The butterflies were truly getting the better of me. That and also, I scanned the area for Dimitri, but could not see him anywhere. I wondered where he was? I will ask him when I see him why he skipped dinner. Though I could not scowl at him for not eating as I wasn't exactly leading by example. I picked at my cottage pie and side salad before I felt like I had had enough. My valiant effort had not been for nothing. I did at least finish half of what had been prepared. I returned my tray to the kitchen before waving goodbye to Carmen. She mouthed goodluck to me just before I left the canteen.
I could barely walk straight as I hurried through the school to the gym area. My pace quickened without me noticing. I honestly could not care even if I had noticed. I whisked through the school till I finally reached the gym. Opening the one door, I popped my head inside first and found Dimitri seated there on a bench by himself. The gym was completely empty as everyone was still busy with supper. So that must be the reason why he wanted to meet me here. He knew we would be alone. I entered the gym at once and headed straight to him. He had his back still turned towards me as I reached him. I didn't give him much of a chance to even stand up before I threw my arms around him and embraced him in a welcoming hug. I could not contain myself any longer. The excitement had fully taken over my body and I was so tremendously happy to see him that I had to show him. Plus. I missed him. Jeez. Being in love was truly crazy. Ever since receiving his text message this afternoon, I could not stop smiling. What did this man do to me? I was like a human marshmallow. Absolutely softened up on the inside. Totally not like me. Even what came out of my mouth was completely foreign to me.
"I missed you so much!" I said, giving Dimitri a big kiss on his cheek. His super gorgeous cheek which I could probably see myself kissing whole day and night if given the opportunity to do so. I could not believe I had openly admitted out loud to someone that I even missed them. That was a first since my dad had passed away. Dimitri rose to his feet and pulled away from me a little faster than what I had expected him to. Oh no! Did I do something wrong here by admitting to him out loud that I missed him?! I had to save this somehow. "I'm sorry. I don't usually just say that out loud like that. Sorry. I don't know what came over me." I said, thinking quickly. Though I was not at all sorry for saying that out loud. I just wondered why now suddenly Dimitri's entire demeanor towards me had changed.
He could barely even look me in the eye let alone move to try and hug me back. He remained standing where he was, using the bench as some type of barrier between us. The butterflies in my stomach was replaced by a sinking feeling of absolute dread. Something was wrong. He had called me here for a reason and I don't think it was a good one.
"What is wrong Dimitri?" I asked straight out.
My question seemed to startle him. Did he not expect me to immediately pick up that there was something obviously wrong here? I held my breath as Dimitri started to speak.
"We need to talk Savannah." Dimitri said. His tone of voice was cold and distant.
"Talk than." I snapped.
