Cross country love

Chapter 2

The next day..

Tyler’s POV

My alarm went off, I groaned and turned towards the bedside table to put it off and sleep for some more time. But suddenly I jolted off from my sleep and realized that I have to go out with Kaavya today. I quickly checked my watch and it showed that it was 9:30 already which meant I was running late. I sprang from my bed and went straight to the shower, I came out and quickly changed into an off white cotton button down t-shirt and washed blue jeans. I stood in front of the mirror and noticed that I hadn’t shaved which meant that my morning stubble was visible. I groaned inwardly for getting up late. Finally I put my Prada vans on, took the car keys which Raj had left for me in case I wanted to drive around the city...bless him and finally my house keys, Ray Ban shades and wallet and literally sprang my way till the lift. I saw that it was 10:15 and I cursed under my breath for making her wait. I hate making girls wait especially such a pretty and sweet girl like her. I don’t why but since yesterday I can’t stop thinking about her. As if she is some sort of a magnet that is attracting me. God I sound like some crazy fan girl. When I was having this talk with my inner self, the ground floor finally came and I sprinted outside the wing but I didn’t see her, thus I breathed a sigh of relief. I was waiting for her and finally after 5 minutes she walked or rather jogged her way out of the wing and towards me. When she finally reached near me she said ‘I am so sorry to make you wait Ty..I have a habit of waking up late during holidays and so I got late. I am so so sorry. I started laughing hysterically by seeing the embarrassed expression and her non-stop ranting..she looked so cute that moment. Finally I recovered from my round of laughing fits and noticed that she was slightly blushing..I chuckled and told her ‘don’t worry, I myself came 5 minutes back and seems that we share this habit of waking up late on holidays and by the way..morning sunshine! U look cute!  She smiled sweetly and wished me back in a low yet cheery voice ‘good morning’ and u don’t look half bad yourself.

I laughed at her playfulness and asked ‘Ready to go then?’

She nodded and together we made our way towards the white BMW. She gawked, her eyes wide in excitement..isn’t she a beauty? I asked

‘It sure is! She replied and winked. She looked really cute in her outfit with a pink and black stripes t-shirt and black jeans and her black pumps. Simple and casual.

I opened the car door for her to get in the passenger seat, she muttered thanks and when I was sure that she was comfortable, I also quickly made to way to the driver’s side. I started the engine and drove out of the building. I asked her ‘before you tell me our first destination, lemme tell u that I am starving since I got late and couldn’t have my breakfast so do u mind going to have breakfast first?’ and as if on cue her stomach rumbled and a tinge of red covered her face. She nodded and instructed me the way to the café where we were to have our breakfast..

It was a 10 minutes drive from the building and I stopped in front of the café that read ‘Rainforest café’..it was right opposite the beach and the cool breeze was blowing softly. Just how I like it. So we made our way inside the café and settled down in a secluded seat facing the beach.

I picked up the menu and handed it to her ‘ladies first’..she laughed and took over the menu and started seeing it. Meanwhile the wind was blowing few strands of her hair softly and I couldn’t help but gaze at how angelic she looked.

She cleared her throat and said ‘why I know I look beautiful and u cannot help but get lost in me’ and smirked.

I chuckled and said ‘getting cocky are we?’

‘Yes. And by the way I have chosen what to eat..now u choose so we both gave our orders. She ordered for chocolate waffles and cold coffee with whipped cream which was one of my orders too along with pan cakes and maple syrup for me.
