ATTRACTION

CHAPTER 17 : [ GERALD'S POV ]

We ate and decided to leave - I stopped  at a ice- cream place and bought her ice cream mainly because I felt guilty for leaving the restaurant quickly. '' Are you apologizing for something that you bought me ice-cream ? ''  '' how do you know that ?''  she seemed intimidated by my stare that she looked down. I pulled on the side of the road - near the forest '' why are we stopping ?''  ''so we can talk! ''  '' talk about ? '' '' I want to know more about you ! '' '' what do you want to know ?'' I look at her and she looks back at me ''your story , how did you come to Brookston High School ?''  '' I grew up in this town but I attended Brook West School , I dated Matthew Davis for about 2 years . I'm closer to Alayna then Alyssa -  pretty much told  that I'm my parents joy , I'm close to my parents or so I think and fitting in has never been my thing you know ! how about you ?''  '' I lived in Italy for about 13 years - I moved to this town when I was 14 , I've been attending Brookston High School since 14, I have 2 brothers who are in our grade - Giovanni and Gotham - I'm sort of close to my parents and you already know that I'm a beast / a murderer ! ''

'' Where do you live ? '' '' you a curious one, see that house in the woods - that's my place ! ''  '' is it not dangerous ?''   '' not at all ! ''  I looked at every part of her , she was like a Goddess '' Ayla ! ''  '' yes ! ''  '' you are extremely beautiful and I know I already said it but its true , why did you  say yes to me ?''  ''  because I'm not going to  judge a book by its cover - I can't do that ! '' 

                                                                          [ AYLA'S POV ]

He wasn't a bad guy - he was considerate . He looks at me in such a way that makes me want to wear blankets as clothing - it was like he was reading me with those beautiful green eyes with gold flecks. My sister said he was a bad person but he made me feel secure; happy and other emotions I can't even describe .

I took her hand and kissed it - I leaned in closer to her and placed my hand on her chin and kissed her, she returned the kiss. It was quite a strain to lean closer to kiss her so I pulled her on my lap- she didn't even protest she just went with the flow. My hands rested on her back and I moved it to her thighs because of our sitting position , her dress exposed some of her skin. We were kissing each other so passionately that we lost track of time, I broke away from the kiss and kissed her neck '' so I'm a beast , huh ?''  '' you have no idea ! ''  

                                                                                      >

She slid back in her chair and I took the opportunity to recover my breathing '' where .. did .. you ..learn.. to ..kiss ..like ..that ?''  '' I have no idea ! ''  '' You challenge me , you know that ? ''   '' how do I challenge you ?'' I look at her - her head was rested against the seat, she was trying to compose her breathing - her eyes opened and she looked at me  '' your eyes are so goddamn  beautiful and you have no idea how much I've tried ! ''  '' tried what ?''  '' Alayna is right , I'm a bad influence on you ! ''
