In Her Eyes

Chapter 3

I woke up with a weight around my waist and something along my back. I opened my eyes to a room I've never seen before. I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath before opening my eyes again trying to remember the memories of last night.

And then, I froze. I looked down to see an arm around my waist that was covered in art, or tattoos I should say. I slowly shifted my body to turn in the direction the arm came from and saw Leo sleeping peacefully.

FUCK MY LIFE.

I fell asleep crying in Leo's arms. Good job Amy, You've done the two things you've never done before. Breakdown in front of someone let alone a guy and spent the night in his bed. This has disaster written all over it.

Rolling back over, I gently pushed his arm off of me and sat up looking around for my phone, that happened to be on the other side of the room. I tipped toed trying not to wake Leo only to see fifteen messages from Lexi including three miss calls from her, and yet another miss call from my mother.

Lexi is not going to let me live this down. I closed the messages and cursed at myself. Whatever school girl crush I had on him turned into full blown like
.
I mentally slapped myself realizing I need to get out of his apartment now. I quickly went to the bathroom to fresh up in whatever way I can, but of course with my luck as soon as I step out the bathroom door Leo was already awake. He was leaning against his beds headboards rubbing his eyes, before making eye contact with me.

He looked at my hands and raised his brow to me. "Were you planning to sneak out?" He questioned me while pushing the covers off of him and standing up making his way to me.

I bit my lip nervously as my heart hammered inside of my chest. He was wearing dark colored briefs while his sculpted chest and perfectly shaped v cut made my eyes open wide. I looked around the room trying my best to avoid eye contact. "I didn't wanna wake you. It's bad enough I stood the night, or that you saw me have a break down. This was a mistake. I'm sorry."

He placed my chin between his thumb and index finger to tilt my head up to try and make me look into his eyes but instead I decided to look down.

"Amy look at me."

"No."

"Amy please just trust me and look at me."

There goes that stupid word.Trust. And even though my mind is screaming I shouldn't. My stupid heart is telling me I should, after mentality fighting with myself. I gave in. I looked up into his eyes and saw something I haven't seen before. Or at least something I can't remember seeing before. His eyes read that something inside of him cares for me, maybe I'm getting to a head myself. Why would he care for me.

He removed his fingers from my chin and cupped my cheek while his thumb traced my jaw. "Last night was not a mistake. Last night I saw something that you probably haven't done in a long time." He said keeping eye contact with me.

"You let your guard down." He said placing his forehead against mine. "And if that was a mistake, then I'm glad I was there to witness it, because in your eyes you maybe broken. But in mine you are truly beautiful."

"Leo! Why weren't you answering your phone!" A girl shouted while walking into his room.

Leo pulled away from me as I glanced between the girl and him.
She had long blonde wavy hair and blue eyes that looked really pissed at the moment. She clearly had a fake tan because she had a tint of orange to her skin tone and looked between Leo and I.

"Who the fuck is she!"

Leo looked at me before looking at the girl and then me again. As silence filled the air. I felt a pain in my heart, that reminded me I was stupid for even attempting to let my guard down. I looked at Leo while grabbing my shoes and bag. He attempted to grab my wrist but I pulled away.
