The Story of Us

Chap 6.

"That will teach you to never underestimate me again Mr. Storn. Now pay up." I held out my hand as we stood in front of my apartment.

"You take to much enjoyment in winning." Rylee said as he reached for his wallet. I took the moment to memorize his features. He was probably 5'9 not much taller than I myself standing at 5'6. His olive skin matched his dirty brunette hair and his haircut of where it took ten minutes to spike and jell it. His eyes were the lightest blue anyone has ever seen. You could see right through his eyes. He wasn't a very built man but you could tell he wasn't a scrounge tall boy.

I don't know what it was, how it happened but it did. I met this man just this morning. I knew close to nothing about him. But, I fell in love with him.

"Isadorrraaaa stop taunting me and take the money."

"Keep it. I have to go." I blurted as I walked into my apartment and running up the stairs without saying goodbye.

"See you tomorrow!? Do I at least get your phone number!?" He shouted after me.

I got up to my apartment, opening the door, and immediately going to the window to see him standing there looking at the twenty dollar bill he held in his hands. He looked up to the window and gave me a cheeky smile.

I gave him the hold on a second gester. I grabbed a pen and a tablet of paper, wrote my number down, and pushed it against the window. He smiled from ear to ear and grabbed his phone out of his dark torn blue jeans.

My phone buzzed and I seen I already had a text from him.

Hey there Ms. Brownslin.

I laughed and waved goodbye to him as he began walking the opposite direction of my small studio apartment.

I quickly replied to his text

Sorry for that sudden absence of leave.

No more than two seconds later...

Your fine beauty. Tomorrow?

Tommorow. I replied quickly.

Isadorra. I am in love.

My heart jumped out of my chest and out my mouth. Play it cool... GIRL DON'T GIVE IN YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HIS MIDDLE NAME!!!

With your dog? Trust me I know.

Lol. yeah. totally. My dog.

He want talking about me. He doesn't feel the same way. WE JUST MET!!! What am I getting into with this boy!?

Tomorrow let's eat at this really amazing restaurant around the corner from the office for lunch? You wanna?

I need somewhere to spend this twenty bucks don't I?

Stop dreaming. That money is mine.

I have a feeling my dreams are gonna be about you for now one...

Don't flatter yourself.
FLATTER ME!!! FLATTER YOURSELF!!! PLEASSEE!!!

Yeah. Right. I know you feel the same way. I see the way you look at me.

Oh man. This fellow is going to be a handful.

At that same moment, Rylee was thinking the same as I was.

What are we getting into? We don't even know each other? But I love her/ him anyway. This is going to be a very long road ahead of us.
