They Sleep Under The Same Stars

Clumsy Self

Heyzo peeps im soo sorry for the late update, I was held up due to some work I promise this chapter is worth reading so lets not waste anymore time and get into the next chapter.

***

"Thats My fuckin book" I screamed. Someone on the other side of the book shelf was pulling out the same book I wanted. "Girl thats mine now" he shouted. I couldn't see his face but he was definitely a rude soul. I left the book and went to the other side of the shelf to see his damn face. I had lost my temper because I was looking for that book for a very long time. I couldn't control myself so I came to the other side pretty violently, shouting like a psychopath. "How dare you talk to me like that you little piece of shit" I howled. "Oh hey beautiful" he smiled.
I took a look at his face and shit. I knew him. It was him again. The guy I had dreamt of. He was a compact clear cut man with precise features, a small face with a sharp jawline and thoughtful dark brown eyes. He looked tired, his dark circles were popping in the rooms bright light, they were screaming about how he had been last night, he was sad and I knew it.He was wearing a black hoodie, and was looking super cute. He was not spectacularly built he was probably shorter than me, but had that dominating manly aura.
"Oh heya I'm really sorry for shouting" I blushed. I've always been the creepiest and the clumsiest human when am around someone I like. I can never control my smile in front of them.
"Its fine" he laughed and gave that book to me.
"I was just messing around I've no interest in reading it" he grinned.
"Oh, but I badly wanted to read this book, I was searching it for a long time, so I got hyper, im so sorry" I said in embarrassment..
"Aye it's okayy, what's your name though" he questioned.
"Why?" I asked. I don't know why I asked it. It just came out of my mouth. I felt so weird.
"Um I dont know why" he laughed.
"Jade grey and your's?" I smiled.
"Should I ask why now?" He laughed again.
I was so embarrassed by then I felt like dying right there.
"I would say because you asked me why shouldn't I?" I blurted out and started laughing. What am I even saying I thought.
"Oh well then Austin Parker" he said proudly.
"Whoa that's a good name" I replied.
"I know right im glad my parents atleast did this right." He joked.
Suddenly he stopped smiling and clenched his jaw muscles.

"can I ask you something?" He questioned.
I dont know why but this shit always makes me nervous. Why can't people just normally ask what they want to, rather than asking a question to ask a question. Its just so silly.
" Sure" I replied nervously.

"Um, everyday I go to that park where we met, and I feel alone there, would you like to accompany me?" He asked.
Why was this boy so confident? Why was he so direct? His confident self was making my clumsy self nervous.

"Ah um but.., why me?" I was confused.

"I don't know its just that you're engrossing much and I thought you also go there everyday" he said.

"I dont go there everyday but I would love to join you"
I said in a little overexcited manner. Im so weird.
"Great! So tonight 11 pm?" He asked smiling.
I wasn't really sure about going there alone but he looked so innocent he wouldn't just kidnap me or kill me. Lol. I didn't want him to see me getting nervous. He was making a straight eye contact all this time with me which made me even more nervous.
I looked down and said "okay".

"I will wait for you near that tree, bye take care.". He went outside and closed the door silently.
I don't know why but I felt attached to this guy I thought. We have hardly met two times that too accidentally. We've never had a proper conversation, but it feels like I understand him. He has never shared anything about his life to me. But I still felt like he was depressed. I had this inner curiosity to know him more, I wanted to talk to him I wanted to console him because for the very first time I Jade grey. Felt like I understand someone.
