My Gangster Prince

STARBUCKS

12

"Hey, do you wanna get some starbucks?" I asked.

"Dude! Don't you know that I love Starbucks? I guess we're both Starbucks lovers then!" Chris replied.

Gosh, we had so many things in common! I know I might be over-exaggerating things, but our last names might be the same in the future too! HAHAHA ;) 

God.... What am I thinking! So we decided to head to the Starbucks located at the mall, and unexpectedly....

"A cup of Venti Caramel Macchiato please," we both said at the same time.

I was unsure of what made me so happy and delighted, but all I knew was that I started blushing so hard. It was just so coincidental that we preferred the same drink and the same size! I really felt at that point of time that we were made for each other, but man, how was that just possible, just by his reply. But hey! You know! The little things do matter, and are enjoyable as well! But meh, who cares. Let's just take a sip of our cups of freshly brewed coffee. 

"Hey, shall we go outside? It's too noisy in here!" Chris shouted at the top of his voice, but I just could not hear a single word. 

"WHAT?" I shouted back at him.

He held my forearm, and pulled me out of the shop with him. So that just happened. THE FIRST BODY CONTACT. IN PUBLIC. Well, something like that I guess. 

Well, not many others have that kind of a chance. They are probably just getting ignored, and their real values have been hidden with a false side over theirs.  Oh boy, am I just that fortunate to at least have something. 

I smiled at him, as I thought he was signalling something to me. Gosh, I literally felt messages from his heart being passed to me, by that lovely touch. Was he trying to tell me that he had feelings for me too? Or that he finally understood what I wanted? Or was it just that.... he wanted to pull me out of the shop? My feelings could have been summarised into an emoticon, which is ":>". A WILD IMAGINATION  I HAD THERE. 

"Chris, are you.....?" I asked in a tone filled with embarrassment.

"It was noisy back there, and I don't really like noisy places. Any suggestions where we can go and hang out?" Chris mentioned.

"I see. Why don't we take a walk in the park? It's just nearby!" I replied.

"Let's go," he said.

Oh my gosh, this definitely signalled a change of luck for me! In just one day, he held my forearm for the first time, and now we are walking together without anyone else for the first time as well! My heart pumped fast, faster than ever. As Valentine's Day was coming, there were tons of decorations filled with heart shapes and love symbols. As we took steps into the park, we realised that we had walked into the path of love. There were many beautiful and romantic decorations on trees and street lamps, that the whole park was filled with romance and passion. Were we taking a couple stroll? It definitely seemed like it! But, Ugh. As true as it might have been, I had to kill that instant thought in my mind. 

"Chris, you sure you wanna walk here? It's so...." I asked halfway.

"Nah I don't mind!" Chris interrupted.

Oh gosh, I literally felt like hugging him at that point of time, because he was just so lovely! He wore a tight singlet, which showed off his sexy body of a beast. His chest was so firm and huge that it seemed like his singlet could just tear because it was too tight. He had his hair waxed and styled to what seemed as perfection. His eyes were still as mesmerizing, and it still managed to stare deep into my soul, scaring all the insecurities away. His lips looked soft and red, that it looked very kissable and adorable at the same time. His smile and dimples contributed to his angelic side of him, but yet his tattoos and muscles contributed to the devilish side of him. Time was so perfect, that I really wished it could last forever. 

But it all really seemed strange to me. Why would such a sweet guy get so many hardcore tattoos? What kind of past did he have? Should I ask him?

"Chris, I was wondering if I could ask you something....." I mentioned.

"Go ahead!" Chris replied.

"What's with the tattoos? Like I mean, what do they signify to you?" I asked.

"Do you really wanna know? It's really hideous," he replied.

I nodded my head.

"Alright, let's sit down and have a talk," Chris guided me to the nearest bench, and there we sat down.
