Deep as an ocean

Careful where you place your heart

"I am so sorry. I made you spill all your papers too. It is also this early in the morning. So sorry..." I said not daring to look into his eyes again. When I stumbled I saw his eyes and they were the most magical eyes i've ever seen.

They were golden not brown and they shone brightly under the light, probably because I scared him too. One glance and it took me a long time to look away...

I finally couldn't help it but look up into his mesmerizing eyes. He saw me staring at him so i quickly looked down and handed him the papers. Later I wondered why I didn't look at his name.

"Thanks!" he said with his angelic voice. I must have blushed because I saw him grin out of the corner of my eye. I thought I heard him chuckle "Alexis". But I am sure it was my imagination, I mean how could he possibly know my name!

Then I stood up and saw that he started walking away. I made the mistake of staring at him and his gorgeous dirty blond hair. When Terry finally woke me from my dream I was already a little late for the student council meeting.

"I am so sorry everyone. I know that as the student council president I shouldn't be late. So sorry." I said as I walked into the room.

"Nice to meet you prez. I am the new vice prez which also means I am taking over the athletic representative position too. And don't worry about it, we already started the conference."said the voice I heard in the hallway. I looked up to find that the vice president was that guy I just met in the hallway.

I can't believe it! He is on the student council? The vice president? Impossible! Someone good looking like him?

"So let's share with the president what we thought of so far okay?" Said the Vice President with his sweet gentle but firm voice.

It was an understatement that I was dazed. It was more like I thought if was a dream. For the rest of that meeting I didn't think of anything else other than him.

At the end of the meeting I started to walk out as the representative for the dance and social activities committee flirted with him. I sighed. Of course there still isn't any chance for me to get closer to a handsome guy like him.

"Wait! Hey prez! Yoohoo! Yeah that cute girl over there, yes you!" He called as I turned around, confused about who he was talking to. Me or a cute girl.

Then I saw him walking towards me.

"Woah! Are you always this deaf?" He asked me.

"Excuse me?" I asked. "I'm not deaf!"

"Then why didn't you stop when I called for you?" He demanded.

"Well I am sorry I'm not used to being called cute."I replied quietly.

"Are you kidding me? No one ever called you cute before?" He asked.

I shook my head.

"Like never? Not beautiful? Or elegant?" He asked.

"Look what's your point. If you're going to make fun of me then just laugh! What's up with these questions!" I replied, suddenly flustered at him teasing me.

"Calm down, jeez! I wasn't making fun of you! I just never asked for your name!" He said.

I felt myself blush no boy like him ever even bothered with my name. "Shouldn't you tell me yours first? I'm Alexis, Alexis Jacqueline Madeleine Chandra."

"Wait! You're Derek's sister! Oh man. He's been telling me all about you! I am Alexander Lucas Deep. Some call me Alex some Luke but you can call me Deep! Well see you around Jacqueline!" He said as he walked away.

I felt my face turn red. No one called me Jacqueline, even though that is my favourite name. Not even my best friend called me that. No one even bothered. No one except Deep.

Like Deep as an ocean...
