Complicated Miracle

Hands Chapter 73

I sigh and throw a rock down at the street below as the cool, crisp air blows my hair. 

" What are you doing out here? " Chase asks from the balcony door. 

I shrug. " Enjoying the view. " I look out at the city. 

" I know. I am a pretty sight. " Chase jokes. 

I roll my eyes and my heart pounds at the smile he sends me. " You're so full of yourself. " 

" Is my dad not Tony Stark? I learned from the best. " Chase smirks. 

I sigh and shake my head. " You're weird. " 

" How have you not figured this out already? I'm a bit disappointed it took you this long to realize this news. " Chase winks and sits down next to me. 

My stomach churns and I get a little self-conscious. Is my hair okay? My clothes?

Wait a moment. Hold the phone. I am not stressing over my clothes. No no-no. What is wrong with me? I never stress over my clothes. Well, except for that other day. But that was something else. 

" Have you seen my dad today? I couldn't find him earlier. " I say as I try to change the subject. 

" Oh yeah. I think Mia was supposed to tell you. Your dad had a meeting with Fury. My dad and Thor went with him to make sure nothing happens. I though Mia told you. " Chase says with furrowed eyebrows. " It was an unplanned meeting. Kinda like a parole meeting. " 

" Oh. " I nod. " Mia, she didn't tell me. " 

" Dang it, Mia. I can't trust her with passing on any form of information. " Chase sighs. 

" It's alright. " I shrug. " Maybe she has short term memory loss. " 

Chase laughs and shakes his head. A bit of his hair falls into his face, making him look extra cute. " Maybe she does. " 

" Do you wanna come to play some GTA with me? Clay's mom made him take a break from the game. " Chase stands up. 

" Um, sure. " He holds out a hand for me and I look at it for a moment before looking back at his prefect, handsome face. I take his hand and smile as I try to push down a blush. " Thanks. " I mumble. 

He smiles and we walk towards the door, still hand in hand. 

He looks so cute. 

Come on!!! Can't I live one freaking second without thinking about him?!
