Forever Alone

Boys..

*Esme*

 After work I walk over to where Gabby usually picks me up, I honestly can not wait to tell her! I get to the parking lot and wait, and finally see my mini pull up. I get in the car and we zoom off. Gabby looks at me and we both start to talk at the same time,"Wait wait Gabby! You go first and then I'll go." "No no no look at you! You're blushing and it seems like your day has gone way better than mine has!" "I am not blushing! But... I saw the guy again from the club!!" Gabby gapes at me and then she has this huge grin on, "Esme!! I saw the other guy from the club!! He was the one who interviewed me and he totally recognized me from the club!! And that guy that you grabbed his leg is his brother!" We both squeal and laugh, how ironic but wait. "Well his brother is now my partner  for a project, his name is Mikael. He's a fine piece of work." I giggle,"Well the one i met could possibly be my new boss, but now I'm not sure that i should even go back to that job! I couldn't even think straight around him, he's just so... Beautiful!!" Gabby is smiling huge and I could swear that I've never seen her like this about a guy. 

We arrive at my house, and my parents are already home which is weird because they usally get home later. Me and Gabby are still giggling as we walk up the steps, and go in the house. My mom is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and she looks at us, "Well girls dinner will be ready in about an hour so why don't you go upstairs and stay quiet." I gape at her and just storm up the stairs. Typical day here at home, can't wait to move out. I go into Gabby's room and we sit and talk about the guys, and how crazy it is that we both met them the same day. I haven't felt this way about a guy in a while so these unwelcoming feelings are all a bit strange to me. Gabby seems completely smitten with this Mr. Dalton guy. I wonder if he's going to give her the job, and whether or not she'll go back to the job. 

*Next Day*

(Esme)

I walk into class and walk to the top to my seat, I don't see Mikael here yet so that gives me enough time to mentally prepare myself with a prep talk. I can do this, just got to keep it simple, don't stare to much and espcially don't fall for this guy. I look up from my desk and see the beautiful man walk into class, *sigh* he really is dreamy. He looks up searching for me and our eyes meet, and he smiles that drop dead gorgeous smile. I can't do this. He takes his seat and the professor comes in. "Well class today I'm not lecturing, you will all leave early and start working on your projects with your partners, but I do want you all to be on campus then come back here and sign a sheet, just to prove that you all studied." Damn! "So you all can study here or outside, but get to work!' Everyone starts to get up and go out, then I see Mikael and look up towards my area. He starts walking up and I just cant seem to move my legs. He's wearing dark blue jeans with a white T-Shirt, and white converse, so casual yet so sexy. Drool. "Hey Esme" He smiles and I try to find my voice, "Hi Mikael, how are you?" Oh I speak. He smirks and asks,"Are you ok? You look pale." I snap out of it,"Im totally fine, umm, what should we do?" "Well do you want to go outside, maybe sit on the grass?" "Sure sure." I grab my bag and we walk down and out the building. We find a spot and sit on the grass under a tree, not just any tree. A willow tree, my favorite type of tree. The campus only has about 10 of these willow trees. "I thought we could maybe get to know each other before we start on the whole project, if thats okay?" Woah. Change of direction,"Oh yeah sure. What would you like to know?" He smiles and starts away with the questions.
