Colleague Next Door

MEETING THE GUY NEXT DOOR

(Myra's and Xavier's outfit upward)

MYRA'S POV

I walked towards the door after reaching I placed my hand on the door knob but didn't open it because I was scared what if it was some murderer or something. "Who is it?'' I asked trying to sound as brave I can be. I heard a soft chuckle from the other side of the door it sounded like a guy. "Hey! I am Xavier I live next door to you. Actually I wanted to ask for a favour from you." he informs me. "What is it?'' I asked him still not opening the door. "Can you open door? You know it's looking like I am talking to a door."

I don't know if I should open the door or not "You know I am not a serial killer or something right? I just want to talk to you." After contemplating for some time I finally decided to open the door. "Okay wait a second'' I opened the door to find a guy smiling at me, he is really hot with golden brown hair and piercing silver eyes. But still with his good looks he seem to be nice guy.

"Hey I am Xavier Miller. Nice to meet you'' he said with a cute smile showing me his dimples while extending a hand for me. "I am Myra Lopez. Nice to meet you too." I said while shaking hands with him. "Actually I just returned from a business trip and I have lost my apartment keys, I cannot go anywhere at this time so I wanted to ask you can I stay here for the night?''

I just looked at him in shock for some time. "Are you serious? How can I let a stranger stay in my house for a night?" after hearing this his expression become sad. I don't want him to be sad but how can I do that? "Please it's just for tonight I will be out of here in the morning. I cannot stay outside the whole night. I will not disturb you and won't do anything to upset you but please let me just stay here for tonight."

God he is begging so much with those puppy eyes how can i say no to him now. Sighing in defeat "Okay you can stay here but you are not going to kill me or rape me right? I can trust you right?"

"No I am not going to do anything like that. You can trust me." he said smiling. "Okay come on in then." I said while opening the door wider for him to enter. I locked the door after him and went inside. He looked around the place curiously " I just arrived an hour ago so I have still not unpacked I will do that tomorrow I was going to sleep after taking a shower I even have to go to work tomorrow so I have to wake up early. Do you need anything before I go to sleep? You can take the couch." I asked him while searching for my towel.

"I can help you unpack and no I don't need anything you can sleep I will take the couch and really thank you so much for letting me stay." he said while taking out his clothes from his bag. "Thanks but I can do it myself. I will go and have a shower then." I said while going to the bathroom.

After looking the door after me I stripped out of my clothes and got in the shower. After shower I dried myself with the towel and wear my cute fluffy shots and top and went out in my room. I went to kitchen to drink water and saw Xavier has changed out of his earlier clothes to a white t shirt and black lower. He was lying down on the couch in a very uncomfortable position as the couch was very small for a person his height. He is very tall, he is at least 6'2''.

I went to the kitchen and drink some water and bring one glass for Xavier as well. "Here" I offered him the glass "Thanks" he said smiling I sit on the couch with him. "Where are you from?" he asked while facing me "Jaipur, India" I said smiling. "So you are here to work? Where are you going to work?" I think I can trust him he really seems like a nice guy and I am feeling kind of safe with him here "Yes, I am here for my internship at Creative Columns. I am an architecture student."

"Wow I work there too. I am the department head there. So we will be colleagues from tomorrow." He said excitedly. "Really you work there too" he just nodded with a smile "Wow what a coincidence"

"I can take you there in my car tomorrow." He said smiling. "Are you sure? I don't want to be a burden or something."

"Oh no of course not, it will be my thanks for letting me stay here tonight."

"Ok if you say so. I should sleep now and you should too. Goodnight Xavier."

"Goodnight Myra"
