Behind These Hazel Eyes..

Chapter 1

I ran.

I've been at it for about An hour now, my burning muscles felt hot against the cool evening beach wind, the sun was just rising. I love running At this time and then again at sunrise, beautiful times. The sky was almost like water colours, bathing the area in a faint glow and making the sea shimmer so that the sand looked lit up. As my muscles gave me a final warning I collapsed, reality falling back on my shoulders along with the nighttime darkness, the sand was soft beneath me, seeping into my loose hair and fingers.

I stayed like that for a while just thinking about all I had gone through, all my life, about Nana how will I support myself after that scandal so many years ago? Now that I'm back I need to find some means of support right? How will I get a job? Who will hire me? My dream had been to work in a PR company, but how do I do that now? With a sigh, I sat up, fed up of thinking about it now, and wrapped my arms around my knees as the throbbing in my muscles gave out a bit. I loved running. As the sun set lower in the sky, I pushed myself off the ground making my way back to Banana's 'cottage on the beach' in a slow walk...

Was I being followed? I felt like there was a pair of eyes on me, I slowly turned, and found myself looking into a pair of the most mesmerizing eyes I had ever looked into, so different to my hazel plain ones, these were a shade of sea green and blue, blending in near the pupil, with a hint of grey near the irises...I was captivated... How could I turn away?

"um, hey... You ..." Wait, what? The eyes I had been so mesmerized by had an owner, obviously, I raked my eyes over them, at the same time I could feel their eyes roam me, a him, I should say... Wow, he was hot, like smoking, he had a serious work out build, which his body fitting sports t-shirt was hugging and some lose running shorts, dark hair, I couldn't really tell since the sun had already pretty much set... I caught myself staring, and quickly looked back up to his eyes... And caught him checking me out, immediately I turned self conscious, in mu short shorts and tank top, and cleared my throat, I watched in amusement and just a little bit of confusion as his eyes snapped up to meet mine, and I was held captive, again. ~*~*~

I was out of breath from running, it was how i kept myself fit, and i loved doing it at the sun set, soon after work lets me off, when I had seen her running at the most crazy speed, got curious and came over as she collapsed and after some time made her way over the beach her head turning occasionally to look at the sea and the setting sun... Without my knowledge I had started to follow this mad beautiful girl. She turned.

"Um hey... You..."I trailed off, this girl was the most beautiful, captivating woman I had ever seen, she had brown hair that looked more maroon in the light and hazel eyes, with a bit of green mixing in, eyes that shocked me, they were closed off to the world and held a deep etching of pain, raking my eyes over her, I realized she also had the most perfect figure, her short top was hugging her and her shorts showed off her tanned, long, curvy leg.

"Uh hm..." she cleared her throat. My eyes snapped back to her golden eyes and once again we stared at each other. She broke the spell first.

" uh hello..." " um hi... Sorry, I just uh saw you running and wondered if I could join you... I run too...and we're kind of the only people running at sunset," it was almost funny how awkward this was turning out to be.I was hardly ever nervous around a girl. The ladies were my speciality.

" uh suuure... But I'm done now, so maybe another time?" " yeah, definitely, so do you run everyday? Like that?"her eyes tightened.

" yeah, why?"she turned back, gesturing for me to follow, I went and stood next to her.

" no reason, just you run really fast, and for a long time too."she started walking and I fell into step beside her. " are you like a professional runner or something?" I asked. I was seriously impressed. She turned her head and looked at me with a confused look.

"no, I just like running, and it helps me keep fit too, so, yeah, what about you? Why do you run at this time? Most people choose to do it in the morning."

"Ya, but work only let's me off for a run at sunrise and sunset."she just looked at me curiously. "What?"

"Those are my times too." I smiled slightly, I would definitely like to spend more time with her. we walked for some time when she turned to me again.

"hang on a second, how long were you watching me for?" she looked a little frightened, and king of amused too, it was endearing.

" uh sorry, didn't mean to stare or anything, I was trying to catch up to you but you were a little too fast for me." She laughed slightly, the sound ringing through me, and said

" Ya that's okay, I have heard that I run pretty fast." "I'll bet," she just smiled "You said you work? What do you do?"Her eyes were batting against the sea breeze, why am I noticing this? A strong attraction? Yeah, that was it, I mean I was attracted to a lot of ladies, she was just the same, except for that hurt in her eyes, it just made me want to hold her and protect her from whatever it was that had made such deep scars on her.

"um excuse me?"oops "oh yeah, sorry, what? Wool gathering, I guess," she burst out laughing, huh? What the hell?

"oh my god! Wool gathering? Is that still around?"I had to laugh at that too, she was right that word was old enough for the 80's we came to a stop at this point, outside an old but stable looking beach house.

"Tthis is my stop i guess, so i guess i'll see you here at sunrise?"yes! I wanted to fist pump the air, she wanted to see me, she wanted to see me, she wanted to see me, AGAIN! Wierd chanting in my head, ok dude calm down, she's just a girl, a girl who was waving her hand in front of my face... "huh? sorry."she laughed.

"You sure do enjoy 'woolgathering'" she waved and opened the rickety iron rusted gate, part of the white, wooden fence surrounding the cottage house, stepped in and walked to the porch.

"Yeah, yeah you will!" i shouted out to her. she looked back, smiled, waved and stepped inside the house.
