Blinded Love?

Chapter 4- Pov. Angel

 I woke up a bit early this morning and headed to the kitchen. "Is anyone here?" I don't get a response so I pop a little K cup in the keurig, my favorite flavor of course; donut shop- nutty caramel. Although I really don't like actual caramel but the artificial flavored coffee form of it is pretty fan-freakin-tastic. While I wait, I decide to head back upstairs and brush my teeth and cover myself in some of my sparkly body mist by the name of "A Thousand Wishes" before clothing myself for the day. Going into my closet I think to myself, "I'm thinking my favorite blue and white shorts and a pink tee will be just fine." I pat my cheeks with both hands then tell myself, "You look radiant today angel honey." I run back down the stairs; grab my coffee, sugar it with an inhuman amount of sugar, take my cute little crossbody purse and walk out the door.

On the way to the little book store (where I work a mostly part time job) called, "Monica's Book Basement" I decided to make sure my sister was awake, she loves to oversleep. "Hey beautiful!" "Oh hey! Good morning sunshine!" "How's your day so far?" "Oh you know It's just crazy as always, Tristan can't learn how to put her shoes on the right feet and Jayden keeps whining about that stupid tablet." "Ooh,haha. That's always." "Anyway, I should probably get going, bye little sister!" "bye!"

When I walked into the store and got to my desk, I look over and notice this huge bouquet of the prettiest pink carnations I'd ever seen. "How had I not noticed these till now?" I read the little tag attached to the vase which reads, "Last night was amazing, I can't wait to see you tonight my cutie queen!" I doesn't say who it's from but I already knew. "Oh my God. Monica! Monica! Where are you?" I hear a curse word from an aisle among the bookshelves and she yells back, "ah! Angel! Omg are you hurt? Is the building on fire?" she rushes over to me quickly and stares at me. "Monica honey, where did the flowers come from?"

I slowly smile as she says, "oh some fine young man came in earlier this morning and asked me to make sure they got to you." "oh, that must have been zack." "Zack? Who's this? You've never mentioned him before." "Well, ya know. We hadn't been talking long so I was gonna wait to bring it up, I was actually gonna try and talk about a little today." "oh well, he sure seems like a good one, don't let this one go angel, he could be good for you." I tilt my head to the side a bit giving her a questioning look. " Good for me? How so?" She smiles seeing how oblivious I truly am to everything. "Well he might be able to perk you up a bit, I see you wandering the shelves too much with that awful look on your face, might as well have been a brick weighing you down, cause that's about what you look like." I blushed for a moment. "Oh me? Heh. I guess not knowing what I'm doing with myself is pretty lonely and also rather depressing, And I guess when I'm with him...I seem to forget all of that. It's really nice. I wouldn't mind more of it."

I help around the store as usual, until about twelve. Monica and I decided to go and grab lunch at the cafe across the street, we do this maybe 2 or 3 times a week. It's how we bond. Other days I don't typically have lunch. That's probably due to the side effects of my medications. Today I ordered a small slice a strawberry shortcake, and some chai spice tea, which is something I'm not the fondest of but it can be found enjoyable from time to time. After lunch, we decide to quit the day a bit earlier than usual.

I headed home happily, wondering what zack meant when he wrote that he'd see me tonight. My parents won't be home tonight so I wonder if he'll come over or something. I hold the vase of flowers in my arms as I walk home slowly, looking up at the sky.

I come to my front door and reach for my key under the mat to find that it's gone. "Oh my gosh! My key is gone! How will I get in?" Suddenly the front door comes open and there to greet me stands the most handsome man I'd ever seen. "Good Evening my dear." I just stand there as if I was a deer in headlights. "Well, come inside before you get sick, it's chilly out tonight." "okay" is my only response. He pulls my inside by the hand and leads me to my bedroom, and begins undressing me. "Oh, this already?" I ask him hesitantly. He just takes my clothes off down to my panties and places my white robe around me. "I just wanted to make you comfortable princess, that's all." I simply blush, expecting him to have some sweet purpose to everything. I set my vase of flowers on the table by the window and head downstairs where he vanished off to, only to find what I failed to notice before from being rushed up the stairs. "Wow, this is all so....nice." I tell him from across the room. He had chocolates on the coffee table, a nice dinner cooked in the kitchen which I'm sure he ordered since it pertained of pizza. The couch was also decorated in pillows and comfy stuff like that. "So, it's not much..but I hope you like it!" he says while his cheeks turn to a semi-scarlet color. I run over and jump onto the couch cuddling into the pillows.

"I love it! No one has ever done anything like this before for me!! Oh and I'm guessing you took the key from outside?" I giggle. "Yeah, that was me, I'll put it back later. He comes over after grabbing the pizza and dimming the lights, as well as turning on the tv on, and to netflix. We ate together, and found a good romance movie on netflix, and cuddled on the couch. After we finished our pizza and finished watching, "before we go", we laid on the couch together and he started feeding me chocolates by hand. "Mmmm tonight has been the best night with you, you always make our time together special." "Well, I do It because I love you princess and I wanted to show you that in any way I could." "Well that's good, but you don't have to do things like this for me all the time, I know you love me. Because just you being here proves that." "I'm really glad that it does, I'll always be here for you." We watched a another movie and I ended up falling asleep on him. He grabbed me, and took me up to the room where he tucked me into bed and crawled in with me, removing all our clothes but our underwear. He held me all night and we slept happily together, but sometime during the night I wake up, and look over at him. He's just laying there with this smile on his face, and I lean over and kiss his forehead. "I love you so much.....I promise to cherish every last moment with you...." I pull him closer to me and he moves in his sleep adjusting his grip around me, as tears stream down my cheeks until I fall back asleep with him.
