Alex POV
I texted Britt asking for her address.... Turns out the bitch live in Beverly Hills. I didn't really like the idea of going to her place but I could swear on my life that she would never come to my place seeing the way the bitch behaved in school. I know it's kinda rude for me to be referring to her that way but that's how I see her. Until she changes the perception I have of her that would be my personal name for her.
I got to her placeand realised that our preety princess livedin a huge mansion that had it's driveway littered with the best cars you could think of.For God's sake they owned two ferraris and two silver Audis and I could see a Bentley parked in the garage. I took my mind off the cars and walked to the front door and rang the bell... It took a while but then the huge dark mahogany carved doors opened.
Britt stood there in a pic romper which looked totally cute on her and rather sexy since it was short and was hugging her body showing her curves. My eyes couldn't help but linger all over her body and I saw her also checking me out and I decided to break the awkward silence, "Hey beautiful" I said , meaning to sound friendly but instead sounded corky... Oh who am I kidding. I meant to sound like that. I could see she was still enjoying the beautiful sight before her eyes so I snapped my fingers across her face ." Ummm... hi" she said , in a weird tone. I chuckled and asked her if she was going to invite me in, and she said " Sorry, where are my manners. Please come in" I shrugged noticing her sarcastic tone.
We both entered the house and danm!! the house is huge and I couldn't help but ask, " do you like live with your entire family or what??" She simply shrugged and said" Yeah" which made me visiby sigh... before she added that by whole family she means she and her dad and that it's just a 12 bedroom mansion. I quickly looked at her shocked at what she just told me. I was looking around taking in the beauty and intricate designes of the house. She turned to me and told me to follow her up to her room.. I couldn't help bad think naughty because man... this house was huge and the only place she wants us to do the project was in her room??As if she read my mind she quickly replied.
" I just prefer to work in my room cause I feel comfortable there." Well, it's good for me anyways. It gives me a better shot at winning my bet with the guys... if I win I get to take Juan's monster bike. We head upstairs and after walking through a long hallway, with pictures hang up on the wall of what I assume would be Britt and her parents, we finally arrived at a door. Britt opened the door and motioned for me to enter and I did. The room was huge and was painted a ver light shade of pink.... but yet the room wasn't all that girly. I felt like being in herbroom would help me figure her out, and it did. I could tell she was the sporty type but also liked reading. I couldn't tell her favourite color but t looked like it wasn't pink, for sure.
She motioned that I could sit at her study table and went to grab her bag from her walk in closet and came out some minutes later with a few binders . We immediately started working on the project, she was really intelligent and so am I(not to brag or anything) so it didn't take long for us to be on the same page and work together synchronising and sharing ideas. After two hours of purely work she asked if I would like some snacks and I took the offer cause I kinda felt hungry. As she got up her pencil dropped and both of us bend to pick it, causing my hands to brush over hers and I could feel some sort of conection to her as we stared into each other's eyes. Our faces merely inches apart, so close that our noses almost touched.
I couldn't help but gaze into her beautiful blue eyes that were swirling with emotion I could smell her scent filled with strawberry and vanilla. " You're so beautiful" I said in a low tone not expecting her to hear but I think she did. " Pardon?" She said with so much innocence in her voice. I cleared my throat and snapped out of the daze I was in" Umm... I said aren't you getting the snacks anymore?" I said, looking away from her." Oh, yeah... that" she said, with a slight hint of disappointment in her voice and went downstairs to the kitchen. Alex what's wrong with you... she's not your type so don't even think about falling for her. Besides, I haven't ever really loved any girl and it won't be starting with her so snap out of it. I mentally slapped myself.

Britt's POV
Damn his eyes are so... enchanting. I was totally lost in them. When his hand touched mine I could feel some sort of connection between us. The part that sent shivers of pleasure down my spine was when I heard him whisper that I'm beautiful. My heart seemed to be running a marathon or so when I heard him say this. But the magical moment was over when he finally reminded me that I was going to get us some snacks.
I headed downstairs and remembered that I didn't even ask him what kind of snacks he liked. I decided to just go with some frittle chips and two sodas. I keep trying to remind myself that he's only my project partner but it seems like each time I say that I convince myself less. Britt you have Austin for Pete's sake. I head back upstairs to my room. " I'm back. I didn't ask what you want so I just got us some frittle chips and soda" I said to him, raising the snacks to show him. " Actually, those are my favourites" he said, smiling.
That was the first genuine smile he'd given me and I returned it with a warm one. We ate our snacks while brainstorming ideas for the projects we hadn't started yet. It was getting late so we decided to continue on Monday after school. We headed downstairs and the smell of pot roast passed through our noses." Wow... what's that mouthwatering aroma?" He asked and I laughed a little. " My Nona's cooking dinner... Would you like to join us?" I asked. " Thanks for the offer though. " he said before we met Nona downstairs. " Chickita... dinner's almost ready... oh hi young man... you must be the classmates chickita here was having over for her project. " she said.
" Yeah, I'm Alex. Nice to meet you but if I may ask why do you call Britt Chikita?" He asked, quite amused at the name for me. " Actually Britt here was ver tiny when she was younger. So I gave her the name chickita. " she said and we all laughed. Nona managed to convince him to stay for dinner. had dinner and I got to know that Alex has a great sense of humor. He made us laugh throughout the dinner. He helped with the dishes after eating and not long after he thanked us for the wonderful dinner and left. I actually got to know a little part of him and I liked it. He seemed nice and was a gentleman....
" He's such a humble gentleman, unlike that egotistical boyfriend of yours... What's his name again?" Nona said, trying to remember Austin's name. " Austin, Nona. And yes I agree that Alex is a complete gentleman. But please don't compare him to my boyfriend. " I said. But in my mind I totally agreed with her.
