Alexis’ POV
I can’t believe that I, Alexis Cartier has been rejected by a guy I don’t even know how many times now. I mean look at me. I’m a decent looking girl. I’m cute, funny and I’m a badass. Who wouldn’t want to tap this? I am a walking Goddess. And he’s not bad looking himself. We’d look perfect together, I can just imagine us on our wedding day, I’d wear a beautiful white dress and he’d be in his black tux. He’d cry when I walk down the aisle and we’ll have beautiful mixed babies.
Whoa Alexis, stop getting ahead of yourself! Calm down!!
Well if there’s one thing I know about myself, it’s that I always get what I want. I know I sound like a spoilt rich kid, but it’s not like that. I just know that whenever I set my mind on something or someone, I always achieve it and conquer it.
There is something really different about him. Despite having the urge to jump his bones every time I see him, I actually want to talk to him!! Like have an actual conversation and talk about our… what’s that thing when you talk about how you uhm, f…f...ffeeell. Agh, I wanna talk about feelings!! I just see something in him that I see in myself.
I wasn’t always this badass and confident women that I am today. I had to deal with a lot growing up, it’s the usual things you see in the movies, absent parents, lonely and not to mention my mother’s new affair with her ‘yoga instructor’. Growing up in a household like mine, it makes you view yourself in a bad way. I felt like I was never enough or I wasn’t special enough to make my parents love me, which is why I always got involved with men that I knew didn’t deserve me just so that I could feel wanted, beautiful. I craved attention and affection in all the wrong places. Which is why we had to move to New York and I shut down all my emotions. I learnt that life is shitty, but you have to deal with the cards you’re dealt. So I changed my image, I learnt to love myself and not to accept crap from anyone!!! I am the new and improved Alexis Cartier.
Noah, Nooooaaahhh. His name just rolls off my tongue. He has awoken feelings in me that I long craved for and forgotten.
DING DONG
My thoughts are interrupted as the doorbell rings. I get up from my bed and walk over to open it and to my surprise it is the sexy devil himself,
“Well hello there” I say nonchalantly
“Uhm hi, uh, I just wanted to apologize for being so rude yesterday. You came at an unexpected time and well, I uh just wanted to know if you would like to go out to dinner with me so I can make it up to you?”
I have to practically lift my mouth from the floor, this is the most words he has ever said to me. EVER! But I take this time to torture him
“Mhmm, that sounds tempting and all but I’ll pass. K, bye”
BANG!!
Yes that’s right folks, I slammed the door in his face this time. In your face Noah!!!!!! I did that.
“Ha-ha, I get it now. It was wrong of me to do that. You can open the door now” he screams from OUTSIDE my door.
“And why would I do that?” I say with a smirk on my face
“Because I have those tacos that you like so much”
Oh no, he knows my weakness. How does he know my weakness is… FOOD
Don’t do it Alexis, resist, resist the urge for those fried tortilla shell tacos with succulent beef strips laid over a bed of greens tops with a creamy dressing!
“Fine you win, but you’re taking me to Via Carota, now give me those tacos”
“Meet me in the lobby at 8pm”
