The Distance

Chapter 9:Moments &Long Ways

The music made me drift off to sleep, it was the best peace and quiet that I had ever received.
Greg looked at Ruby, god, there was something about her he couldn't get through his mind. She was like a gorgeous creation that fell from Heaven sent by God, designed just for him. She had muscles, enjoyed wearing simple clothing such as T-shirts and sweat pants, she also had a lot of abilities he wanted to understand, but she doesn't seek to cooperate with him in any possible manner. He was so curious about her.

Page 73:
Like, who is she, where is she from, and why is she so different than the other psycho girl he was in a relationship with? No, this girl was not like the rest, from looking at all her records, she's never had any sort of criminal history, and according to her father she was raised well, but had always secluded herself from the rest of the world, he thought this would be good for her, as she will begin to discover that not all human beings are as bad as they seem;sure she was a little rough around the edges, but in time it was very possible that she may warm up to him. Or so he thinks.

Ruby woke up from her sleep, and Greg thought she might be hungry.

"What's up sleeping beauty?"

"Real original Greg, just shut the hell up already."

"Hey I was just trying to lighten up the mood, it's not ok to be grumpy all the time, maybe training won't be so bad,we could become best friends for all you could know."

Is this guy serious right now? Does he not realize his existence pisses me off, yet makes me want him more?

"What?"

...

"Ok, well are you hungry?"

Page 75:
I nodded and he asked me what I wanted to eat, I honestly didn't care what he got me, but I just answered his question anyways.

"Surprise me, as long as it's not sea food"

He just walked off, and I sat there with anger trying to pick up why he deals with my ass. I'm a rude motherfucker, how does he even manage? But that doesn't matter, as long as he was miserable, eventually he may surrender to trying for my friend-ship. The fool clearly is stupid if he thinks I don't realize what he is doing. It doesn't take half a genius to get the clues down, it's simple human psychology, yet sadly even full-minded people still don't get the concept.

Greg came back with Chick-Fil-A. Oh how I hated him so much more, because he got my favorite food, the exact thing I would eat there. Who is this guy? How did he get the same food I would eat at this place? Is he an international spy, has he seen me somewhere? What the hell is going on? I just accepted and thanked him for it. As I munched down on my spicy chicken sandwich, and it was devoured after 2 minutes. I stuff the fries in my mouth, while dipping them in Ketchup-mayonnaise sauce. The fries too disappeared after a few seconds passed by. And the best for last, the chicken nuggets, also dipped and carefully taken bites. As I gulped down my Dr. Pepper. Greg was looking at me with a shocked face like he'd never seen a girl eating like I had.

Page 77:
I was purposely trying to disgust him so he can despise me later, but somehow he seemed more fascinated and impressed.  Dammit
I thought to myself, this whole thing is highly annoying to me right now. But before he could open his mouth to say anything, we were called to the flight. Greg, still having his food, boarded with it as we sat in the very back. I wasn't bothered in the slightest by the small seats or the fact that there weren't many people on this plane, however what I am stressed about is having to sit next to this guy for four- and a half hours.

Page 78:
Honestly, I was not at all convinced that this was going to go smoothly. Greg had finished his food and the lady claimed the trash from him so that he can be comfortable. As I clipped and strapped on my seatbelt, Greg did the same, but just when I thought I was at peace, this fucker had the nerve to stare at me with curiosity.  Of course it had to be now.

"May I help you?"
I asked him in an annoyed tone.

"I'm just trying to look at you, I want to understand you."

"How many times have we went over this conversation? Stop being curious, the less you know the better off you'd be, trust me"

Page 79:
His eyes were staring into mine, how can I keep myself under control when he has caught my eye like this, and managed to keep the contact? Seriously? Who does he think he is? Suddenly, his fingers gently plant onto my face, my heart started to slowly breathe the words I wanted to say so badly, it was like word vomit but I held it back and fought the urge to surrender to his touch. But I couldn't help myself, I just hadn't been touched by a human like this in so long. The feeling felt so mutual and I just wanted to fight it off before my brain starts to give in.

Page 80:
Suddenly, the lady started giving announcements on the safety instructions, but I didn't pay too much attention because I already understood the whole ordeal. I dont need another lecture, I just want to watch TV. Once she was done I quickly turned on the mini television enclosed on the seat. But then, Greg just stared at me again, and I couldn't help but just look at him right back. We had another moment, my heart beating faster and quicker as he slowly started to feel my face, and his hand sliding on my neck as he started to pull me in slowly.
God, what do I do, I cant just decline what's about to happen, but I need to think fast.

Page 81:
But just as I was drifted in my thoughts, my trance broke when his lips planted on mine. Fuck, what is this gentleman doing to me, what the hell I couldn't help myself but kiss him back. It just feels so content and right.
I slowly start to unbutton his uniform, but he grabbed my hands gently, and looked at me.
"I'm not saying no, but that's too fast, wait a while."

....

"Something wrong Ruby?"

I couldn't look at him right now, I was blushing too much, my face as red as a tomato, felt the entire plane ride being so awkward. I couldn't believe it, he kissed me and I liked it. I'm supposed to have a deep hatred, yet I cant seem to find it. Nothing makes sense anymore.

Page 82:
For the most part the plane ride was quiet until I decided to break the silence, grab Greg quickly and start kissing him again, I couldn't take it anymore, he needed to know or I'd die. He started kissing me back, as I groped his hair making the kiss deeper this time. More sensual, as he unbuckled my seatbelt and sat me on his lap, luckily all the ladies and men who served the snacks and walk around to make sure the passengers were safe, were on break and sitting at the front, me and Greg had the back to ourselves for a few minutes. As he sits me on his lap, and I couldn't help but keep going in. I let out a small sigh as he started planting his kisses all over my neck.

Page 83:
For a solid 10 minutes, I forgot it all, I was just stuck in that moment with him, and it felt like my soul was lit on fire for the first time. I wanted this, no one can tell me otherwise. I couldn't seem to gain any self control, I just let my body do all the talking. But he sat me back down in my seat as I buckled myself in again. I couldn't help but think one of those "what the hell did I just do" moments. As the plane made rumbling noises, I woke up on Greg's shoulder. Shit... I was just dreaming. So much for that, if only it actually happened.
