81. Pretty In the City: II

Meredith's POV

"What are you staring at?" Blake just kept looking at my hands over and over again. I didn't understand why, it seemed a bit peculiar for awhile, but it didn't matter. I should've know from the beginning that he didn't mean any harm. I should've just trusted my gutts from my first day in LA. I just should've.

"Your hands, they seem perfect. I understand that seems very weird, but they just are. They're perfect, like everything else about you. Wait- no. I take that back. You're not perfect. You're perfect for me- yes. But you're not perfect." I looked at him with a weird face. I didn't quite understand what he meant.

"You're not perfect. And I like the fact that you don't try to make yourself perfect. You're who you are and you don't bother to change it, because you're amazing the way that you are."

I had a tear in my eye. Maybe not because he was so freaking sweet, but because there was something in my eye. I guess we'll never know.

"That's sweet Blake. Thanks."

"Hey, anything for you. I just hope one day we can have a relationship like your brother and Calypso. That's not my goal, but I hope one day we reach that level of love."

He kept looking on to the highway as he talked, here and there glancing at me.

I held on to his hand and laid my head on his shoulder. All thanks to the gap between us in the front of his car, I was able to make that move.

"So NYC huh?" He had a smirk on his face.

"Yep. NYC."

"Well then, this should be really fun. Not just because of this proposal, but you know. It'll be fun."

I looked at him in a weird way, not understanding what he seemed to be implying.

"You know where my parents live?"

"No, now that I think of it. To be quite honest we barely know much about each other. Well, at least me knowing about you. "

"Yeah, that's true. So we should learn more about me soon. But, my parents live in NYC."

Oh crap.

"So I'm obviously going to introduce you. Hopefully you agree?"

"Ye-yeah. Of course. But we aren't even technically dating."

"How so?"

This is going to be hard to explain.

"I mean I guess we are we just haven't done anything that couples really do. I mean-"

He stopped the car, when I noticed we finally reached my house.

"We just made out at a club with a bunch of drunk maniacs and your ex next to us. Also making out with your enemy if I may add."

I forgot about that last part.

"But I won't lie. We really aren't going anything that couples do. I want to do so many things with you, but I can't. Because I feel as if you'll think that we are going too fast or something. I had so Ma-"

I sort of maybe kind of pushed my whole body against him at that moment. I kissed him like I did in the club, but with a little more intention of making him feel good if you get my hint.

Not even two minutes later someone knocks on our window really forcefully. Scaring the crap out of me.

"MEREDITH. YOURE GOING TO MISS YOUR FLIGHT AND YOUR BROTHER PROPOSING TO YOUR BEST FRIEND. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING MAKING OUT WITH BLAKE?"

I got out of the car as I rolled my eyes.

"Hey Violet. "

"LOOK. I HAVE ALL YOUR BAGGAGE RIGHT HERE AND WE HAVE TO GO RIGHT NOW. EVERYONE ELSE LEFT FOR NYC ALREADY. COME ONNNNN."

"STOP SCREAMING. "

"IM NOT SCREAMING. IM TALKING IN AN EXTREMELY LOUD VOICE."

"TONE IT DOWN A BIT WOULD YA?"

"Okay, no hurry up get in and tell your boyfriend to open the damn trunk."

I smiled once she said boyfriend and got in. Ha, he really is my boyfriend isn't he?

I'm at Niagara Falls and school started and I'm like VERY busy so I don't know if I'll be able to keep updating the book or not because I also kind of lost my interest in writing books. But this update is for Jazmin Beauty HENDRAX so enjoy!
