Sena's pov
Great start of my first morning ...Could it can get any worse??
I let out a long exasperated breath . Firstly , I made fool of myself and now I have no idea how to deal with it without having to face any other embracing encounter with him . And secondly , the 'great grand high school reunion' which I have to attend on coming weekend .
Fuck reunion !!!! I even loathe the idea of being in the same room with my batchmates .
Like really !!!! Could my first week in Mexico get any worsen ????
Really , I have to find a way to dump this reunion shit... And for that I have two day . And before that I have to find a way to fix the awkward situation between me and Elliot with minimum damage .
Yes !!! So plan is : let's face it up ; clear thing with Elliot and then find a nice excuse to dough the reunion party politely.
I turn off the shower and wrap the towel around by wet body . I step out of the bathroom to find myself in another unimaginable situation . There stands the devilishly handsome man who was knocking all the sense out of me a while ago. Yes .... I planed to clear the fog of awkwardness , and to come clean at the end with minimum damage. But not now and special not in the close space of my room . God knows what we may end up doing . And I certainly don't trust myself after the declaration made by my conscious .
He was dreassed in a casual white t-shirt and black ripped jeans . I found myself staring at him . He moved from his initial position of standing by the door towards me , to finally stand infront of me ,with hardly a gap of one feet between us .
Due to the close approximity , I could smell his aftershave . And god !! it's so intoxicating. The desire I had felt a while ago ,begin to surface and this time even more strongly . He was staring me intensely with his ocean blue eyes . I bite my lower lip to prevent myself from blushing .
His eyes rack my body from head to toe and finally his gaze settled on my lips . A small smile was playing on his perfectly carved lips , when realization dawn on me .
Fuck !!!!!! I am standing in only a towel.
"W-what are you doing...... ahhhh ..... why you are here?" I whispered yell .
"I came to talk .... but I better leave" he chuckles and turn around to leave .
Oo what a gentleman!!!!
" yes. We have to have a talk . Better sooner than latter" my voice made him stop in his track .
"You wanna talk now" he turned back with a surprise look on his face .
"I mean not now but soon" I cleared " and now get out"
"As you please ,beautiful" he said with a wink before exiting the room .
Pervert !!!!!
I got dressed in faded skin tight high waist jeans and pair it with a loose white top . I tie my hair in a messy bun and complete my look with a little eye liner and lip bam . I put on my sneakers. I took my purse and leave the room .
When I stepped down stairs, I saw Koraie shaking hand with Elliot . And by the expressions of Koraie's face , I can tell he like him . Duh!!!!!! Obviously he like him .
Did I forgot to mention Koraie is gay !!!!
Ooh yes I did .
"Koraie!" I called him to get his attention while he was busy eye-rapping Elliot .
"Here she came .... ready to go" Koraie said moving his attention to me .
"Yep" I walk towards them .
"You are heading out?" Questioned Elliot with confusion written all over his face .
"Yes, to...." I started
But was cut short by Koraie "yes , we are going shopping and then pay visit to my mother's house. Wanna join ?"
"Nope , I have better things to do like volunteer Eric to prepare final sheet on our observation of Saturn and it's rings or even better ; might daydream in kitchen" he said with a wink . And left us with a naughty smile playing on his lips .
I turned red as tomato at his comment.
Koraie turned towards me , confusion clearly evident on his face . He raise his eye-brow at me questioningly.
"I will tell you everything but after you treat me with a softie" I rolled my eyes.
"Wait , do you mean to tell ; you and 'the hot specimen' being involved in something" he whispered yell excitedly.
"First softie then gossip" I said walking towards door .
"Don't tell me you f****d him in the kitchen!!" Koraie stated in disgusting tone while following me on the street .
"No !! obviously not"
" then what did you do ?? Come on , just spit it out"
"First softie then .."
"Okay , let get a little brat a softie" Koraie cut me off , finally compiling to my demand .
I had a victorious smile on my face as we took a turn on the corner in order to reach the local softie cafe .
The cafe we entered is small and cozy with tables arranged at comfortable distance . The interior of the cafe is not modern but emits the warmth . The cafe is not too fancy nor too dull , it is decorated moderately . There is the island stools on the other end of the cafe .
"I will have Choco cookie cream" I said taking my sit on the corner table near the window while Koraie got into line to place our order .
There are not too many people in here at this time of the day . Only a couple, maybe on their first day or so . And a group of three high school girls occupying the centre table busy chatting about some web series.
“Here you go .. now spill” Koraie handed me my softie where as he bought himself strawberry dipped.
“Well , to begin with : his name is Elliot and he is intern of Eric” I begin with a sigh .
I narrated him everything from our very first encounter at the door where I made fool of myself , to the morning event in the kitchen and our latter encounter in my room .
Koraie’s mouth hang open when I was finished with my little embarrassment tale .
He broke the silence after absorbing the details he got a while ago “ so , you mean to say , you are falling for him”
My breath got caught in my throat at his statements and I started to cough vigorously.
Koraie offered me a glass of water to calm my nerves .
“See , he can also sense the obvious” mini- me had a victory dance .
“No , it’s a mere affection or we can say it happened in the heat of the movement.” I defended myself after claiming by coughing.
“Don’t lie to me , girl . I saw you turning crimson when he mentioned ‘daydream’ in kitchen” he continued perusing.
“Did someone caught you red handed .,, O my bad ; red cheeks” mini-me continued to mocked.
“It’s nothing like that . Really!! And for your information , we will sort it out in the most civilized manner which is called “communication””
“Let’s see till how long you can be ‘civilized’?” Koraie smirked.
“Will see”
“Sena , he is the hottest specimen my eyes have ever witnessed... and so is you . I mean he is ten times better than the dough bag you dated back in university . Why not give him a chance?” Koraie excitedly gushed .
“He is not my type ... I mean he is handsome, witty, but I don’t know if I should get involved with him .. actually he seems like playboy or..” I rumbled not knowing how to terminate this topic .
“ okay okay , let it be .” Koraie butt in and switch the topic “what are you going to wear on reunion?”
“Haven’t decided yet” I shrugged
“Darling , That’s why we are going to shopping” he stated in duh tone “ what I instead to ask is ; have you decided what sort of dress you gonna buy”
“Will see” I shrugged.
“You know what , I will chose your dress and believe me , you are going to be eye catcher throughout the party” Koraie rubbed his palm together with an evil smile plastered on his lips , altering me about the sinister idea going through his pretty little head .
“Koraie, if you are planning to chose any slutty dress then drop the idea already”
“Will see” he mimic me and got up to exit
I sighed before following him .
It took us ten minutes to reach silver bell mall by the cab .
We entered the a fancy looking store to find a dress for the reunion which I have no intention of attending.
We searched through the rack , to find a decent cocktail dress but found none . After roaming around for another hour , we decided to leave . Either the dresses were too plane or too fancy .
We were passing by a*****e , when suddenly Koraie squeal “that is a prefect dress , Sena”
I followed his eyes and saw a beautiful dress on a mannequin. It was an eye catching item. Not too extraordinary nor too plane , just a perfect mixture of elegant yet simple .
