CH IV

A gasp left my lips. Only one thing was running through my mind and my heart was fluttering or had it stopped again. My body reacted to his on its own.

My hand reached out and placed itself in his outstretched one. ZAP!!!! That brought me back to the real world. I held my injured hand close to my chest unable to analyze what the hell just happened.

I was rubbing my hand and lifted my eyes again to look into his "blue eyes". I was stuck again.

"Hey, are you ok? Am sorry I was distracted and bumped into you, but am glad I did." His lips lifted into a grin, I died there. Yep I did. What is with me and this guy.

Aaaaaah!!! he must be following me,oh no, he is some kind of a psycho maybe.

I broke out of my trance looking into his eyes, and checked my hand. Hmmm no permanent damage, I was able to move my fingers, no scar or anything from that shock.

It must be static. I have to get away from him quickly, don't know what he might do to me with all his charm and alluring eyes. Yes I did say, hey you appreciate what you see right.

I abruptly turned and began to make my way to the subway so I don't miss my last ticket home.

My legs moved fast on the pavement, only my mind was whirring and my heart was thudding so fast I knew I was alive. I didn't want to turn back. Just kept my head down and walked, my destination set in my mind.

Not long I was able to see a pair of shoes walking beside me, oh no, he is following me. No not going to happen mister, not today. You might have alluring eyes and look soooo good but you are not getting the best of me. Uhuh! nope no way, no way in hell. I huffed and turned around to give him a piece of my mind, and then I couldn't.

There he was, all but charmingly smiling at me, his pearly whites all seen, beautiful beaming smile. Arrggh! WTH, I can't fight that smile. I huffed again resigning and giving up.

"Why are you following me?""Following you?""Yeah, how else would you come to every place I work?""No I did not come to club cabana today, I only.." "See, see you are following me oh God! Why do all the handsome ones have to be such perverts and jerks. Not one nice guy. What is your problem? You better scram before I call the popo.""Popo?...really...hahahahaha"

He was holding onto his stomach and laughing. Hmmm his laugh is sooo beautiful. Ugh get a grip on yourself woman I chide myself. I kicked myself out of the daze and lifted my backpack to hit him.

"Hey!!! Chill out. Am really telling the truth. Am not following you ok. It's not that I wouldn't follow you, you are very sexy and beautiful I would gladly follow you, but AM NOT FOLLOWING YOU. Am new in town, found these places and became my usual hangouts is all. Maybe you are following me? huh?" He smirked at me. Awww he is so sexy, sexy smirk. Ugh what?, what did he say?

"WHAT???....WTH....no way!!! never....hmmmpff who do you think you are that I have to follow you huh? I have more important things to do with my life. My dream that I have to fulfill and my life itself has a different goal man. pffft! get a hold of your fat ego."

I was about to turn and walk away, when I glanced at his face. I wanted to wipe away that frown, I wanted to see that pearly white smile so badly. I wanted to kiss away all the sadness in his life. I could not decipher these feelings I was having for him suddenly.

"Yes, but you did say am handsome" he wiggled his eyebrows at me. That's it, I could not be angry at this man. I broke out laughing and soon he joined me. After good few minutes, I reeled myself in and looked into his mesmerizing "blue eyes".

"Wow!! your eyes are sooo blue. I love them." I was stunned at my own words and covered my mouth. I stopped from making much more of a fool of myself and turned to walk away. But I felt a tug on my hand and turned to look at his hand holding mine.

"Why are you frowning?" "I didn't feel those shocks"

He moved his hand to lace his fingers with mine and that's when I felt them again.

"You mean this" and he pulled me closer to him.

I was breathless or my breathing stopped, didn't know anymore. I was lost in his eyes. He was reading my face, his eyes moved from my eyes to my lips and back to my eyes, like deciding if he should or not kiss me.

I was unsure myself, should I kiss this handsome "blue eyes", who has captivated not just my day life, also my night dreams. Our faces moved closer on their own, just a few inches more and our noses would touch. I was stunned by the horn of a passing vehicle and stumbled away from him. But he had not let me go.

"I...I.I..ha..have to get home. I have to go please." I pleaded with him. Not looking at him. I felt my hand hitting my legs and looked up. He looked sad, and he was looking at the ground, his hands in his pockets.

"Ok I understand. Sorry if I was fast. It's just....umm....could we maybe meet sometime?""Am sorry but I have a lot going on in my life. I cannot afford to get distracted. Am really sorry."

He nodded and turned and started to walk away. I stood looking at his retreating back. I really wanted to run and go hug him, to kiss him senseless and feel those amazing shocks or sparks again when we touch. I wanted to feel that fire that started to burn when he looked at me with those mesmerizing eyes. I wanted to feel wanted, loved, like I belonged.

It felt good, but the more logical side of me chided my heart. Nope concentrate on your goal, more important. Your life is a mess don't involve him in your mess. He will get better.

I turned and slowly dragged myself to the subway station. Yep this day could not get any better. Thinking back on his words, a smile flew to my lips and I was madly grinning to myself. He called me sexy and beautiful. Recalling those words from his lips, I could feel the butterflies in my stomach and my heart was fluttering. I was happy, that someone found me so. Maybe I would meet him again, maybe he was my soulmate. What else can explain that sparks.

Yeah I know there's no such thing or is there? Soon I was interrupted by the announcement of my last rides arrival. I decided "blue eyes" can wait, but it doesn't mean I can't ogle at him in my dreams right. With that and am sure a blushing smile I was on my way back home. Thank God it's direct ride to my home from here. I would really have to call off my second gig ifI have to travel around the world for a good night's rest again.

His mesmerizing eyes and pearly smile was all that was on my mind as I reached home. Unlocking I threw my backpack on the floor, not having energy left to do anything about my outfit I jumped onto my welcoming sleeping abode. In the middle of the night I was woken by a call, no missed call. Inspecting my mobile in my sleepy haze I noticed it was from an unknown number. I was about to put it down and return to my much needed slumber, when it dinged with an incoming message. I was sceptic as to who would send me a message or even call me at this hour of the night.

I opened the message. It was a very weird message. I was wide awake now and re-reading the message. The wheels in my mind started to work.
