Chapter I
Scarlett
I look at my calendar “Tuesday”, we just finished spring semester yesterday and Summer semester is already starting tomorrow. I calm myself thinking is the last summer semester I’m taking. Just this and the next one and I’m done. Ready to internship as engineer. I was sitting calmly waiting for Latisha and Charlotte, it is our free day and we are going to spend the day together. In this part of the school, you can appreciate the city outside and all the people who passes by, is a busy hallway. I lift my gaze to see this handsome man tall, wearing ripped jeans. One of the holes was big enough to see the end of his tight how ripped his legs are. White shirt, it was obvious he worked out. He was holding a backpack in one arm, behind his back. Square chin. Gold skin. Brown hair. The man was a monument to the man. He looks at me, takes of his backpack and sits and says with deep and calm voice “Hello, it’s a nice day outside” I look at him and answer with a smile “It is” We stayed awkward silent for ever (it was only for thirty seconds at the most), when he broke the silence “I’m William” I looked to him and responded “I’m Scarlett” Looking away from him “You are not a talker are you?” he was insistent, “Well is not I’m not a talker but, I don’t know you, I’ve never seen you before” I complain “That can be solved easily. My name is William Lewis, I just moved from Florida -that’s why I’m over tan- I like hot tea, even if is summer. I enjoy outdoors. Oh and I live in those apartments pointing to a building, I’m kidding". We have been talking for ten minutes when he says “and how am I going to invite you to dinner?” I give him my phone number. He stands and says “It was a pleasure talking to you” and leaves. After he leaves, I sigh, his scent stays the next few seconds and I can’t get enough of him. All of him was making me wet. I hope he didn’t notice it. I want to see him again. I want to kiss him. I want to have him naked. I want him inside. Charlotte and Latisha approach. “We are done, let’s go” Latisha says.
William
I just arrived to the city and need to go to the school to arrange some things. I get the rental car and put my luggage in the trunk. I start Driving towards the school with the GPS help. After thirty minutes of heavy traffic and driving I finally arrive. I just need my backpack I think as I grab it. I enter the school and make my way to higher floors. I was walking by this hallway when I saw her sitting, looking away, lost in her thoughts. Shorts, green blouse, converse (just like me), red long hair. Smooth skin and full scarlet lips. I reached her and sit next to her opening conversation between us. Those legs were calling me already. Her gaze full of lust had me. She is beautiful. We just kept talking for a few minutes. I tried to make her laugh but, she is tough public. I look at my watch and realized I should’ve been in my appointment five minutes ago. I ask her for her phone number and leave her sitting alone again. I head to the Math department to finish the paperwork we started online. I needed to get out as quick as possible, just to see if she was still sitting there. Finally, we finished with the paperwork and questions. The Dean says "welcome to Denver" I answer respectfully "thank you, now if you excuse me I just arrived to the city and I need to have some rest" We shake hands and kindly shows me the door. I leave, and start to rush my walking towards the hallway looking for her but, unlucky me she had left. I sit where she was and start staring at the view looking at the people how they walked with hurry to make it to the buss stop, others taking their time. The cars moving in different ways. Life of other people happening in front of my eyes. Now I see what she was looking too. It feels good step out of your own life for a little bit and look around to where the same life has taken you. Such a smart woman. I head to my car and drive to my new apartment which is relatively close to the university. Well, the bright side is I won't need a car since the school is to close, and there is a*****e at the street level of this building. I'll be walking a lot during my stay. I go upstairs, shower and get ready to return the rental. I was going back to the apartment when the image of those legs disrupt my thoughts, her hazel eyes, and scarlet lips; her name honors her lips. Her sweet voice, she is intelligent, definitely she knows how to keep an interesting conversation. She is a gorgeous woman. I'm back at my apartment, pull my phone out and look for her name the screen said "Scarlett" I couldn't call her or text her. What was going to say? I better hit the gym have something to dinner and go to sleep, tomorrow is Wednesday, the first day of the semester. Thank god my classes are only Monday thru Thursday. Laying on the bed looking at the ceiling she comes back to my thoughts. Her image is talking but her voice is not there, just her lips are moving with no sound at all. I memorized her facial features. Her gaze is intense and I love that. This woman made such impact in only ten minutes, I can't get her out of my mind. I fell asleep with her in my mind.
