The Girl From The Blind Date

Naked

After a grueling 4 hours of walking in and out of shops trying to assemble the perfect getup for Tracy, my feet were literally killing me. Tracy was still very much actively walking around and picking things she liked. I have no idea how she does that.

"Trace, this is good and all that but you might want to start getting ready if you're planning on getting your hair and makeup done at Pamela's in time. You know she's very.....detailed," I told her. Pamela has been Tracy's go-to hair and makeup stylist since forever and I won't lie, she's very good at her job but she also take forever. One of the drawbacks for her impeccable skill in makeup and beauty.

"Yeah you're right, I think I'm done. Let's go back to the car so I can drop you off at home," she agreed and I was so relieved to know that.

We walked back to the car with a dozen bags in both our hands and I definitely think we looked like monkeys but who's judging? (me)

Soon enough, we were in front of Sky Apartments again and I couldn't help but think of the date night when Adrian drove me to the hill and I got to see the beautiful view of the city at night. It was such a majestic sight that I wanted to see it again but I couldn't remember the road leading there. I guess that was the last time I'd see it again since he's definitely not going to be going out with me again. I'm not Tracy.

"Thanks Trace," I said trying to conceal my slight disappointment of never seeing Adrian again. Luckily, she didn't notice because she replied with a happy and brisk 'welcome'.

I was still standing I'm the middle of the parking lot waving Tracy off as she drove to Pamela's. Then I sighed and walked to the apartment.

Tracy and I live in the penthouse of the building, courtesy of her dad so it was a long ride up to the 40th floor using the elevator. After a long day of walking around the mall, I deserve a good soak in our Jacuzzi to relax all my muscles and maybe take my mind off Adrian for a while.

Wait, what am I thinking? He's not interested in Desiree Wright. He was supposed to meet Tracy Morgans. Not me.

And yet he did.

The voice at the back of my mind said but even so, there's no chance between us. He was set up with Tracy and not Desiree. It's their story.

But why do I want to be the one to cuddle up with Adrian?

I groaned as I had a war in my mind about my feelings towards the situation. I mean sure, I might have a little something there for him but come on, let's be real. Nothing could happen between us now.

Could it?

Without realizing it, I has reached the top floor and I felt so much relief just looking at our home. I was kind of a freeloader here because Tracy's family was the one paying for all this. I did offer to pay half but Tracy insisted that just being there for her and accompanying her was all the payment she needed. So now, I'm living in a luxury penthouse in one of the best apartments in San Francisco with my best friend free of charge.

After I arrived, I went into my room and stripped out of my clothes and into a towel. Then I went on my way to the Jacuzzi on the veranda and slowly let myself sink in.

The water jets felt so good against my skin and it helped release the tension in my muscles. For a while, it helped me take my mind off Tracy and Adrian.

As I was still enjoying the soak, I heard the bell ring.

That's odd. Tracy has a key to the penthouse. She doesn't need to use the bell. Oh wait maybe she forgot her key again like last time.

I rolled my eyes then slowly got up. I wrapped myself in my towel and made my way to the door.

"I swear you always forget your ke-" I started then stopped mid-sentence when I saw who was standing outside the door.

"Hi," I couldn't believe my eyes. Standing there was Adrian and damn he looked even hotter in a casual outfit. "I, uh, came to give you back your bracelet. You must've dropped it during our date a couple of days ago and I just realized it when I decided to ride my McLaren today so here," he held his hand out to reveal my favourite bracelet. His cheeks were a deep crimson and he was clearly embarrassed by the situation considering I'm naked with only a towel to shield my body from him.

I was so surprised that I reached out to take the bracelet but I didn't tie the towel tight enough that it fell down to reveal my naked wet body to him.

A little scream escaped my lips as his eyes also widened in shock at the sudden turn of events. My hands desperately tried to hide my privates from him as much as possible but it wasn't working so I bent down to try to grab my towel but I was shielding my breasts from him so the action on made them jiggle and I became as red as a tomato because I realized that I just gave him a boob show. So, with the lack of anything else working, I turned around.

Great now he has a full view of my ass. At least they look good from all those squats I've been doing.

"Uh Adrian would you mind?" I said embarrassed and still very much blushing. I don't know if he understood what I meant but it was better than just letting him stare at my naked body.

He coughed and replied "Y-yes of course, here." He took my towel that fell on the floor and gently wrapped it around me. Then I took it and wrapped it as tightly as I could to avoid it falling again giving him another show.

When I turned around to face him again he was blushing mad and even his ears were red. "Thanks," I muttered sheepishly.

"Sure and um here, your bracelet," he handed me my bracelet without meeting my eyes. We were both still very embarrassed and after I received the bracelet, we just stood there. Refusing to look at each other and hanging in an awkward silence.

"So um, thanks for bringing me my bracelet. It's my favourite one and I appreciate it," I said as I willed myself to look at his face.

"Yeah sure, don't mention it love and uh I guess I better get going and get ready for our date tonight eh?" he replied sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his head and shot me an awkward smile.

"Yeah go get ready," I said hiding the hurt that suddenly appeared at the thought of him and Tracy going out tonight. Then he looked me in the eyes and smile before turning around to leave.

When he had gone, I closed the door and without realizing it, I slumped back on it to the floor. I propped up my knees as I had some revelations about the situation.

Not only was that the most embarrassing moment in my whole entire life, but I just realized that what I feel for Adrian might be more than just a simple spark.

"Goddammit, I think I have a crush on him," I muttered to myself as I rest my head on my knees.
