It was Fate

Chapter 3

Ryder

Waking up early, I'm used to. But I barely slept last night. All thanks to her. I couldn't get her out of my mind. Sitting here outside my mom's place, I've waiting forever. It's almost 10 am and she still is not outside. I honk again. If she doesn't come in one-minute I'm leaving as it would be pointless to go anyway as we would be too late, and they would move on to the next patient.

"Hi honey, sorry I'm late. How are you?"

"Mom didn't Nick tell you to be ready by 9:30. Now I'm going to have to rush and you know how traffic is in the morning. You know I also have to be back to work for lunch. I have a meeting at 1:00."

"Oh, hush up now. I can't just run out the door in my pjs and slippers, can I? No, I can't! And work will always be there. Do you even see anyone other than your employees or even do anything other than work? Your brother was telling me you seem more irritated yesterday. Seems like you still are too. Maybe you should take a couple days off and just relax. You do know what that is right? All work and no play, makes a very boring Ryder. How are you ever going to meet someone if you never leave your office." Oh I've met someone alright. Well kind of. More like I shoved my tongue down her throat and didn't get her name before she drove off. Fuck there I go again. Damnit mom I just shopped thinking about her.

"Not having this conversation with you mom. How is your uh, book clubs going?"

And then she starts into about all the gossip going on between them. Never pay attention to what she says because one, I have no idea who she is talking about and two, they are all older ladies and I swear they talk dirtier then people my age. And that's just wrong. I do not need to hear that shit. But she is right I'm still in a grumpy mood from yesterday. Well not grumpy, just agitated. No not from that crazy chick. The one that 'helped' me. I have no way to find my mystery kissing woman. I can't get her out of my mind. There's just something about her and I don't even know her and its driving me crazy.

Pulling into the parking lot of the doctor's office I park the care, making it with no more than a minute to spare, I get out of the car with my mom. Locking the car up, I follow my mom a few steps behind. Grabbing the door, I hold it for my mom.

"Ah at least I did something right and raised you like a gentleman." I shake my head with a small smile. I stand by the door while my mom walks up to the receptionist.

"Hello dear, I'm here for a 10:15 appointment with Dr. Smith. My name is Marie Blake."

Then I hear a familiar voice.

"Ah yes, he is just setting everything up. Please take a seat and he will be with you shortly ma'am."

Looking up, I see her. She looks beautiful today, then again she could wear anything and she would look beautiful in my eyes. Her hair is up in a messy bun, her plush pink full lips and her beautiful green eyes with gold flakes, shine with happiness. She is wearing a white blouse that fits snugly on her. Her chest is pushing against the silky material showing the generous curves of her breasts as she sits behind the receptionist desk. Now at least where she works, now I just need her name. She looks up again when my mom walks by to sit down. Seeing me, her eyes widen and she her faces turn a little pink from blushing. 

"Hey! No females attacking you today," she says laughing.

"No, not today thank god. At least I know you didn't forget me ," I tell her giving her a smile and she blushes and licks her lips while she glances down quickly. Seeing that makes me want to groan. I want to learn over and lick her lips so she opens up for my kisses. Damn it. 

"How could I? Anyone with eyes could not forget you," she says, shyly smiling. That is one thing I do hate. What, just because I'm good looking, that means all females have to stare at me. Like seriously didn't anyone fucking teach them that starring is rude, and honestly, it's pretty fucking creepy. Like I said. I don't like a lot of female attention on me. Hearing behind me my mom getting called to the back, I tell her I'll wait out here for her. Walking closer I stand in front of the desk she is behind.

"Well before you rudely drove off, after kissing me -," I say smiling showing her I'm joking.

"Hey! I didn't kiss you! I went to kiss your cheek. You're the one that turned your head to kiss me!"

"Yeah yeah, as I was saying before you rudely interrupted me. I was hoping to get the name of the woman that kissed me," I say joking around with her.

"Well since as you put it, I drive off rudely. I guess I can," she says chuckling and rolling her eyes. She sticks her hand out to shake and says "My name is Arabelle, but everyone calls me Belle."

"Well since you told me your name I guess it's only fair I told you mine. I'm Ryder. Nice to meet you Aria," I grab her hand and place a gentle kiss on the back of her hand.

"Aria?" her eyes widen a bit and she look down and blushes. She looks even more beautiful blushing, especially when I'm the one causing her to blush.

"Yes, if everyone usually calls you Belle then I would like to call you Aria."

"Oh. Okay," she says still looking down blushing, while I smile at her.

"Well to show my appreciation with you helping me yesterday, I was wondering if you would like to go out for a cup of coffee?" She looks surprised by my offer. I wonder why. She is beautiful, she must be used to being asked out.

"Well since its free coffee, I don't think I could say no if I wanted to," she laughs.

Smiling at her, I grab a piece of paper and a pen and write down my number for her.

"Text me when your done work and I'll come and pick you up," I say as I hand her the piece of paper. Just then my mom walks out.

"All done sweetie, ready to go? Since you were complaining about not wanting to miss your appointment," she says with a small laugh.

"Yeah I'm almost ready mom. Here take my keys and I'll be right out" I hand her my keys, so she can go and sit in the car.

Turning back to my Aria, I grab her hand once again and pull so she stands and leans over the desk a bit by the time I stop. Leaning over the rest of the way, I lean in close, so my lips just lightly touch her ear, she shivers as I say, "I'll see you soon my Aria." I give her small kiss on her cheek letting it linger for a moment . I let her hand go and turn to walk to the door, stopping I look back and see her looking dazed and blushing . Smiling I exit the office and go to the car.

"Don't even ask." I tell me mom. She just sits back andsmiles while looking out the window. While I'm trying to cover the small smile,I have. I cant believe I found her. Now all I have to do is make her mine.
