Obsession

3. Holy Tenders!

Those eyes... Those eyes that captivated me the second I looked into them. They were the color brown... They suited him. I never knew I could be so enchanted easily. As I looked into his eyes, he studied me too. I wonder what he's thinking... Probably that I'm some type of weirdo. I cleared my throat and looked down at his arms. He seemed to notice what I was trying to say so he lifted me up on my feet completely and I thanked him quietly pushing my glasses up my nose a bit from nervousness.

"Are you ok?" He asked. I looked up at him with wide eyes and literally tried everything in me to stop asking him to speak again. That'd be creepy. But he had an accent... Maybe british? Australian?

"Yeah I'm fine... Thanks."

"Don't worry about it. It's my fault anyways."

"No no... I was the one running and crying like a lunatic." I laughed a bit and he chuckled. The event from the past 2 minutes came rushing back into my mind making me frown a little and look down. Pathetic... Worthless... Unloved... Useless... Annoying... These were just the few things that they've said to me. I could feel tears coming so decided to say my goodbyes to this handsome guy in front of me that I might never see again. Great...

"Um..." I wiped the bottom of my right eye with my hand not allowing myself to cry in front of him. "I-I gotta go..." I brushed past him but he grabbed my shoulder stopping me. Oh thank God!

"Hey uh..."

"Violet." I told him. Maybe he feels the same way as I do!? Maybe he wants to see me again!? Maybe he'll ask for my number!? Maybe he'll-

"Violet... You're phone fell." I was pulled out of my thoughts once my name fell from his amazing kissable lips. Holy tenders I loved it! But of course he wouldn't want my number. 1. We just met and 2. Well... Just look at me!!

"Oh." Was all I could say. To say I was upset was an understatement. I was disappointed but I guess reality had to check up on me. I look down at the ground to find my phone a few inches away. I go to pick it up, but he too had bent down bumping my head into his.

"Ow!" We both said in unison making us look at each other and laugh.

"Sorry! I'll get-"

"No I'll get it for you." Before I could protest he bends down quickly and picks up my phone handing it to me with a smile. My skin touches his and it sends shocks through my body. Calm down Violet! Why am I feeling like this!? I just met him!

"Thanks. Again." I blushed and smiled. We stared at each other again for a few more seconds making my heart race until he broke it off.

"Well Violet we've got a few more minutes to get to class and I don't wanna be the reason you get there late." He chuckled.

"Oh right." I looked around realizing that we were indeed still in school. I laughed feeling stupid, nervous and giddy at the same time. He just looked at me with a confused smile and a raised eyebrow.

"What's so funny?" He asked once my laughter had ceased. All I could do was smile and blush as he put his hands in his pockets and the way his smile gave me butterflies inside my stomach.

"N-nothing..." I looked down at my phone chuckling. What.the.hell.is. Wrong with you?! Act natural retard!
"So will I be seeing you again?..." I questioned him probably sounding desperate. I literally wanna die in a hole right now.

"Probably. Looking forward to it Violet." He answered with another smile.

He's looking forward to it?? Really!? So that must mean he felt what I felt!? Or just as friends? Are we even friends?...

"Same here!" I blushed looking down again not being able to hold back my immense smile.

He turned walking away to his next class I presumed. He doesn't look like a bad boy... But he doesn't look so innocent either... He's got one of those looks and personality that leaves you wanting more but having to be careful at the same time... Or maybe I'm just weird. I started walking the opposite direction but quickly realized something. I turned back around shouting to him.

"Uh excuse me!?" He stopped walking and looked around as I waved my hand at him trying to let him know that it was me who was calling for him. He noticed and took a few more steps towards me but stopping halfway so that he could hear what I had to say. He raised an eyebrow waiting for me to continue.

"Are you uh... New here?..."

"Yeah I am. The name's Calum."
