Chapter 3

Jane 's POV

'' Good morning , good morning , good morning to you . Have a nice day , have a nice day , have a nice day to you . ''

I smacked the alarm . Groaning I pushed myself out of my bed and zombie walked to the bathroom . I brushed my teeth , used the toilet and took a quick shower . Stepping outta the bathroom I dried my body , got dressed in my airport outfit.

I slid on my watch and my sneakers . Grabbed my suitcase , mobile phones and my keys . I locked my house door and reaching downstairs , hailed a cab and rode my way to the airport .

'' Perfectly on time .'' I praised myself . I looked at my watch 4 : 59 a.m .

I completed all the formalities and sat myself in the waiting area in front of my boarding gate . I looked around the area and spotted a bookstore nearby . Being the book lover I am , I strolled in the bookstore along with my belongings . I simply had my handbag , rest of my luggage was given for check in .

'' Hello there , young lady . '' greeted the cashier .

'' Good afternoon '' I greeted back .

I floated to the historical section . And grazed at the books on the rack .

I was so into scanning the books and my eyes caught the one I wanted to read ' The Da Vinci Code ' .

'' The one and only The Da Vinci Code . At last I found you . Oh I love Dan Brown 's books .'' I voiced my thoughts and just as I was about to reach for it , a arm slid in front of me from behind my back and grabbed the one and only copy of that book . It happened in a blink of an eye .

Surprised and shocked , I turned around on my heels and my eyes met with the back of a man .

He's got a sexy back . Nice built back muscles . Seems like he worked out often . I took a moment to check him out . His hair was black . He was looking devouring in a crisp white shirt and khaki shorts ending his outfit with cool loafers . His sleeves were rolled up and damn , he was he epitome of hotness and handsomeness .

''Get a grip , he snatched the book you wanted , Jane ! '' I snapped out of my trance .

''Ahem , mister .'' I cleared my throat and gosh... He turned around facing me .

'' What . The . Hell . Are . You . Doing . Here , James ?" I asked surprised .

''Oh , you know , hunting elephants ! '' cheered James amusingly .

'' Anyways you cannot do that .'' I continued .

'' Do what exactly .'' James asked raising his eyebrows .

I scoffed and said .

'' You cannot buy that book , it is mine .'' I stated .

Taking a moment , he roamed his eyes all over my body .

'' You are not Dan Brown from any angle . '' He remarked .

'' I mean , I set my eyes on that book first . You ungentle gentleman . '' I said pointing at the book and then the second half gentleman thing was said by jabbing my index into his chest .''

'' Oh darling , I set my hands on it and that matters more , doesn't it ? By the way , if you were so desperate to touch me you could have asked . " He smirked .

" You are unbelievable , ego headed jerk ! " I yelled . And bumped into his shoulder deliberately and walked away .

" Oh , you did it again honey . You could have asked again , if you wanted to touch me , Jane ! "

James called from behind .

" Have a good flight Miss ." The cashier called .

" Huh , good flight , my foot ! " I snapped .

" Maybe you should keep more copies in stock . " I said in anger .

" Err... Right . Sorry . " The cashier choked out .

Poor cashier . I thought as I walked towards the gate .

Finally I boarded the flight and sat on my seat .

I put my seat belt on and shut my eyes . My acrophobia got me in my first flight . Considering this would be my second flight I was nervous .

I just sat patiently and hoped for a better co passenger .

"Holy crap , we meet again . Good to see you Jane . "

Said someone above me . I snapped open my eyes , turning my head to the source of that sound .

" Oh noooo. The whole world is against me today ! " I stated .

" Come on , Jane . Don't get disappointed . I am not some nervous acrophobic guy ." James said .

" But I am ." I muttered to myself .

" What ? I am not quite sure , I heard you ."

As I turned my head , I froze .

Just an inch closer and I'd be kissing him . On his LIPS .

We stayed in that position for a second or two and I pulled back . My cheeks flushing with embarrassment .

James cleared his throat and leaned back on his seat .

I looked away and plugged in some music inside my ears and rested my head against the headrest of my seat .

Let sleep come over me , Oh Lord . Let sleep come over me . I chanted .

I will get a good 5 hour sleep now . With that I closed my eyes .

Within minutes , I drowned in sleep . Being a heavy sleeper I will not feel the flight take off .
