I CAN'T [ BROCK BOESER ]

- six -

Almost an hour later and I'm ready, I stand awkwardly in front of the mirror and look over myself. Alicia and Jessica have curled my hair in loose curls, and then made me dress in ripped skinny jeans and an oversized jumper. Jessica stands behind me with a grin on her lips, I smile sheepishly when we make eye contact.

"You look so pretty!" She grins. I softly laugh at her and turn around, as I grab for my bag, I hear the door to Jessica and I's room knock. Fear soon fills me and I know that it's Brock, he did say he'll be here at five and it's five on the dot.

Holy crap this is happening.

"That's Brock! Oh, I'm so excited to meet him!" Alicia announces excitedly. I watch wide eyed as she moves over to answer the door, Jessica follows after her while I cower in the back.

"Hello, you must be Brock." I hear Alicia say when she opens the door.

"Hi, yes I am. Is Levi here?" Brock asks and I feel my heart begin to hammer harder in my chest. Why does my name sound so nice when he says it? Gosh dammit, Levi! Get a hold of yourself before you do something you'll regret, like fall in love with Brock.

"Why yes, of course she is. Come on in." Jessica says stepping back. I hear the door open and I straighten up, I slowly turn around to see Brock walking into the room. My heartbeats quicken and I try not to let my eyes widen but they do. Why's he wearing a slim cut suit? And why does he look so good wearing it?

"Hey, are you ready to go?" Brock asks in his soft voice and pushes his hands into his pockets.

"Yeah." I nod and grab the rest of my stuff for tonight. I swing my bag over my shoulder and move towards Brock, he smiles when our eyes connect.

"We want her home by two maybe three at the latest!" Jessica calls as she follows Brock and I towards the door. I let Brock out first and then I leave my dorm, Jessica closes the door behind us and now it's just us alone.

"You look very pretty." Brock smiles as we walk down the hallway. I bite on my lip in hopes that it'll somehow stop my blushing cheeks, but unfortunately my cheeks soon blush a bright shade of red at his words.

"Um." I clear my throat. "Thank you, you look nice too."

"Thank you." Brock says and gestures me to step into the elevator first. I walk in and lean against the wall, Brock gets in next and copies me.

"Did you enjoy your trip away?" I ask making conversation between us.

"I did, we won two out of four games." Brock nods and turns to face me.

"I know, I watched some games when I had the time." I mutter with my cheeks heating up at my confession.

"Did you really?" Brock asks a little astonished at my words.

"When I had the time, I got to watch the LA game while I was studying." I nod looking to Brock. I find his blue eyes looking into my dark ones, my heart beats quickly when I continue to stare at him.

"I didn't play my best." Brock sighs turning his head away from me.

"Are you serious? You played amazing." I protest and Brock softly chuckles at me, his head shakes gently.
