Both of us were having our food quietly. He suddenly stopped eating and I could feel his gaze at me. When his stare became long, I lifted my face and his eyes met mine directly. They were deep blue like the pure ocean. I was lost in their intensity. I took a deep breathe and unknot my tongue to speak "looks like you didn't liked the meal."
Suddenly he moved his eyes from mine "Aaa... No its fine... I mean its great."
I smiled back in reply.

The concern in her words and her expressions were sincere. The way she bandaged my hand was a humble action towards me.
All these thoughts were circulating in my brain when I paused to have her sight.
I was continuously watching her, waiting for her to look back at me. As soon as her eyes met mine, they had some kind of pain hiding behind.
Soon her pink lips moved and we had a few words about the food.
I don't know why butt I was very curious about this lady.
"Don't try to get into her world " my inner voice told me.

Ignoring the voice I said "Would you like to have a cup of coffee with me?"

Before she could say something I added " I'm good at making coffee
I'll make one for you too, if you want to." I emphasized on the last words.

"Sure" she said picking up our dirty plates from the table and head to the kitchen.
She was cleaning up when I entered the kitchen. I took out the coffee maker from the cabinet and started my work.

After washing the plates she remained in the kitchen watching me work.  Her back was supported by the kitchen counter & her arms were wrapped around her breast. Her hair were open, I think they were still wet.

"Would you like to play a game?" I asked.
"Rules?" She replied. I don't know whether she accepted my game offer or not but she moved on the rules directly.

"I'll let you know the rules but let's go to the balcony first. Follow me." I told her giving her the mug of coffee.

I moved towards my room. Though I didn't turned to see her face but her steps were little hesitant. Then I opened the door to the balcony.
She looked surprised. I said "The balcony is interlinked with our bedrooms."

Hazel moved forwards and started to view the sight. It was calm outside. The grey clouds were no more on the cloud. All the plants and trees had taken a bath from the rain water.
"It's beautiful." Hazel whispered beneath her breath.
I looked and smiled at her. I took few steps towards her & asked "So should we start the game?"
She nodded in approval & took a sip from the mug.

"We will ask each other questions and if you don't want to reply you can choose to go for a dare." She listened to me carefully.

She took another sip waiting for me to go for the first question "I'll start" I said.
Before I would speak she went towards my room door and sat on the floor by the support of the door. I followed her action and sat beside her with some distance between us.

I took my first sip from my mug. The coffee was creamy and delicious.
Thank God it was good otherwise, my words would go wrong. I thought.

Finally, I started "Mr. Simon told me that you have moved from the nearby town to Texas. Why did you moved here?"

Her face expressions changed like she wasn't expecting this question on the top. She gulped her sip of coffee and replied "Actually I need to move on with my life and get some good job. Good job needs good education and I'm sure I'll get both the things here."

She was very calm while elucidating her point "So did you got the admission somewhere?"
"Its my turn." She said ignoring my question.
"Your full name?" She asked as she had already planned the question in her head.

"Tristan Hawthorn" I replied and she chuckled. It was the first time I saw her laugh like that and she looked amazing when her serious face would mould into a laugh.
Her cheeks became red and a tangle of her hair came onto her face which she tucked behind her ear. She said embarrassingly trying to hide her smile "sorry for that."

I smiled and said "looks like my name is very funny."
"No actually I imagined something funny of your sir name" she said
"What?" I asked
"I won't tell you." She said
"OK so that's your next question." I said grinning.
"I chose dare and skip the question." She said cleverly.

At that moment I cursed myself to giving that dare option.
But then I don't know from where an idea popped inside my head "OK so your dare is to slap me on my cheek."

I have never been this frank to any women oy there after my worst experience. Even the girls at club didn't like my bad temperament. I would just spend some time with the girls at bed and that was now rare. Apart from that I had no soft corner for any girl.

She saw me with her hazel eyes wide open. She asked shockingly "Are you sure?"
"Yes" I said. "It doesn't sounds good hurting you like that." She said.

"I'm used to bear the pain of hard punches so these tiny hands of yours couldn't harm me. You got that Hazel?"

I said Hazel without thinking.

"Hazel? I'm Isabella." She said
"Oh, OK Isabella." I said but she looked at me like she was waiting for an explanation.

"Umm.. Your eyes are hazel brown in color so I called you Hazel since I didn't knew your name at first except that Ms Wordsworth." I told her
"I appreciate your observing skills." She said and I took it as a compliment.

"So you are going to slap me." I turned to the point where we left out game.
Her eyebrows arched up and she nodded. She lifted her body from where she was sitting and came near  me.
The brown tangle which she tucked behind her hair few minutes before was again covering her side face. There was no mark of makeup on her face yet her face seems so adorable. Her features were her delicate.
In short she was freaking beautiful.

She was distracted by my stare and went back to her previous position.
"Why are you getting nervous? I'm telling you to slap me not to kiss."

Her cheeks went red as she heard the words and I laughed at her expressions "You look like a ripe tomato when you blush."
The girl who was bold and confident few minutes before was turning red and shy now.
She's cute. I thought

The next second she abruptly raised her ass and came near me and slapped my cheek and went back to her place. She took a deep breath realizing the breath she was holding.

Her palms were soft and moist. Soft I suppose as she takes care of her skin very well and moist because she was a bit nervous. 

As her dare was done we kept silent for a moment. Before I would speak I heard my phone ringing  "let me take the call." I acknowledged her.
I stood and went in the room towards my side table.
The phone screen lighted with name 'bro'.
Why is Jordan calling me right now?
