Love And Limerence

chapter 2 ( That guy )

  Alexia's pov

  So yeah vacation wasn't such a bad idea. That was my thought through the first four days. I went to the beach when the sun was hot, flirted with random surfers who were super  hot , I let random beachers buy me drinks, went on a swim with this scuba diver that can hold his breath for half an hour in water! Half the time I was wishing he'ld grow a tail like a merman.
 
  Nope it didn't happen.
Well, on Friday, I had Nothing to do so I went to the beach again... I saw this boat with the name  perfection. It called me to it said to me "Alexia come aboard."

I would not lie saying I tried to fight it... I just went on it.

There was music.... Teenagers.... Dancing... and there was this guy who walked up to me bought me a drink and then we got chatty.
   
      "So what's the name?" I smiled as I quoted No brainer "Mama said never talk to strangers" he grinned and said "chic we've been talking for almost an  hour and you suddenly just remembered what your mama said about strangers?" I shrugged not caring.           
  "I'm Joshua" he finally said
"Call me Alex"  he grinned at his progress
       "You mentioned that you don't live here."
    "Is that your way of asking where I live?" he smirked and I continued "I'm from New York"
  "So you new here" even though it wasn't a question I answered,
             " I've come around a couple of times but it's been long "
  " Ok, you surf?"
"Of course" I tried to keep my eyes on his face but it kept wandered to his so damn impressive torso. The idiot noticed and smirked " like what you see?"    

"I've seen better"

We danced together and he offered to give me a ride home. He stopped and I thanked him but as I opened the door he pulled me back.
         "What the hell Josh!"
"Babe don't fight me and you will enjoy me" with that he pressed his lips on mine and began to taste them. Out of reflex I bit him and made a run for it. I didn't get far though.

"Your gonna pay bitch!" He swore as he got a hold of me.
    His hand gagged me as he forcefully kissed my neck. I prayed for an angel and at that time I thought I got one, now I know I went from the hands of demon to that of the devil himself....
        That guy, my hero, my prince charming, my knight in shining armour came.

"Let her go ass hole!"

He had said before he put me off Josh's arms and attacked him.
   " Go home." he had said to me so firmly yet so soothing
      "Would you-" as if reading my mind he cut me off by saying " I'll be fine, now go" And all this time he had his back turned to me. Without hesitation, I left saying a thank you I wasn't sure went past my lips.
          

   Several days passed.... I saw him in my dreams, I saw a black scorpion that looked so familiar, I missed him too...
    And each time I wondered was he wishing he had time to get to know me like I thought daily. I consoled myself by saying it's a small world and we'll meet again.
Gee, I have never been so right.
"Your order ma'am" I heard a familiar voice say but I didn't put it to thought. I was at my favourite shack at the beach with a copy of the Ford's magazine, reading an article about me. Yeah I was famous remember.
   " Coca-Cola super chilled and hot dogs" I replied not looking up at him I'ld like to believe he nodded cause it'll be rude to leave just like that.
I got my food and once I was through devouring it, I left the cash on the table, packed my stuffs and left.
     The rest of the day was uneventful.... Until later that evening. I went to get some junk -don't judge- I was craving them at that time and at the cashier's check I saw it the scorpion tattoo.

My sixth sense screamed that guy!

I walked up and noticed the physique matched. "A hundred and seventy" the cashier said to him and I watched him empty his wallet, but it was nowhere near a hundred. Without thinking I took some cash and shoved them in his pocket.
 
    He turned around as his arm caught my wrist with a scrowl on his face but I might have imagined it because it was quickly replaced with a smile, a small one though. He took it thankfully and then left. I realized he was slipping through my fingers again and so I caught his singlet. I heard the sound of the light fabric tearing and I let go saying my apologies.
I turned to the cashier slipped her some cash and said "I want it delivered. " Then I turned to catch up with him.

   "I'm sorry, I just didn't want you to go. I need to talk to you."
"Congratulations! you've succeeded." He smirked and said "wouldn't you like an autograph or a photo as well?" I didn't miss the sarcasm. I blushed.
"Alright you've got my attention..spill are you some crazy fan girl?"
   " Gee dude, some attitude you've got, not even a thank you for earlier?"
  "I didn't ask you to use me for charity work mother Theresa" some how his rudeness was translated into charm for my body. I hate him for that. "Ok..." He was nothing I expected so not my type- Heck! I didn't even have a type- but he intrigued me...
   He looked at me, obviously expecting me to say something and when I didn't he passed his bags to me and took off his singlet "I really should replace that" he shrugged "it's not your fault it's been due for a long time now."
Yeah, I bet it was the very same singlet he wore that day.
  "Uh...um... I wanted to say thank you for that day."-he looked blank-"the day you helped me out..." I paused when I saw his arched brow "come on you know what I'm talking about!"
   "Nope, wrong guy."
He top his bags and turned around. I held him back "this tattoo, I know what I'm saying. I just want to say thank you "
   " 'Kay, whatever."  I should have taken a hint, leave him but NO! I saw six pack washboard abs, I saw massive chest that haved at every breath, I saw bicey bicepts and I wanted more from that guy. 
    I hate my teenage years.
   
"So do you wanna go out like to the beach or something?"
"What's so special about the beach?"
    "Well.... The water and sand?"
"It's what beaches have that's why they are called beaches"
"Right...." I looked like a complete idiot at that time.
     "Why did you help me that night, you don't even like me."
"Good deed for a life time cause in the next few years..." He shrugged "Who knows?"
Oh he hinted me, I just didn't get it.
  
     "Serious?"
"It was convenient." I smiled.  " You didnt deny it!"
"Nope. Look I don't always accept gifts for my good deeds but these-" he gestured to the bags -" I'm keeping 'em"
  I nodded. "So how about shopping tomorrow, you really need a new wardrobe." I said with a giggle.
   He didn't smile "you insulting me?"
I shook my head
"I just-"
   "Chill girl I'm messing with ya"
    
      There was an ackward silence as he stared at me. "You really do like me, don't ya?" My blush was the answer he was looking for
    "I'm ok with that 'cause I like you too" I swear my heart reached for the sky. "But, I got a chic, sorry..." "Alexia" I supplied
"Alexia, I'm not on the menu"
  As the cold would hit you when you go out in a swimsuit on a winter mornings, his words hit me.
And my heart, crash landed double the speed of it's ascent.

He turned to leave and I mouthed tomorrow as I watched his retreating figure.
