Holding one hand onto the tree I take my phone out my pocket and dial her number. I wait for her to answer, once she sees her phone ringing, she turns off her stereo and runs to her bed.
"Hello?" She says out of breath.
"Hi, why are you out of breath?" I asked her. I know the reason I just want to see what she's going to say.
"I was umm..." I see her looking around her room for an excuse. I was doing my homework."
"Homework?" I ask her.
"Yeah homework."
"Since when do you get out of breath while doing homework." I readjust my grip on the tree.
"Newtons law makes me short-winded." She laughs out. "Don't judge."
"I'm not."
"So, what are you doing?" She asked dwindling with her skirt.
"Thinking about you." I tell her. She lets out a giggle while holding her side.
"Really now?"
"Yeah, are you busy?" She sits on her bed and lays back.
"I was doing homework. Newton's second law is calling out to me."
"Well call that newton guy later let's hang." I tell her. She turns on her stomach, her skirt rises up a little.
"Fine, come over in an hour."
"Ok, bye." I hang up the phone. I hang in the tree for a few more minute lingering around. She jumps up and down with a huge smile on her face. Leaning in closely I can hear her say something.
"I can't wait Alexander." She skips to her door out of her room.
Me either.
Quinneth's P.O.V.-
"Everything is done." I say mumbling to myself. Alexander will be over here any minute, so as soon as I got off the phone with him, I started setting everything up.
I take the popcorn out the microwave and dump it in the green bowl. Without thinking I throw some popcorn in my mouth. I spit the popcorn out of my mouth, forgot I brushed my teeth a few minutes ago.
With Alexander coming over tonight I wanted to not only look my best, but smell my best. I know a few days ago I told him that I didn't want any type of relations until I was ready for more. Well, I think I'm ready for more.
We've been hanging out every day this week and he hasn't tried to pull any move on me. I thought he would just take my comment as nervousness and kiss me anyway, but he actually obeyed what I said. Which is nice because that shows he respects me as a woman and human. I've kissed him on the cheek and he kissed me on the cheek. Also, he kissed me on the hands two days ago but that's it.
I thought after Myers I wouldn't like another guy again, it seemed impossible and distant. From hanging out with Alexander that idea about Myers is now redundant. I walk into the living room and sit the popcorn bowl on the glass coffee table. Stepping back, I observe what's on the table.
Going from left to right theirs twizzlers, various candies and chocolates, popcorn and some can sodas. I found whatever I could in the kitchen that was 'movie food' and put it out on the table. Thank god grandpa isn't here he'd be furious if he found out I was eating his twizzlers.
Speaking of Grandpa, he's been out every day this week with Irene. I think it's turning into something serious. For years he's been alone, romantically, so for him to have somebody he can talk to and love it makes me happy. When I get older and move out, he'll have somebody and won't be so alone.
As I sit down the napkins on the table the doorbell rings, hopefully that's Alexander.
I run to the door, before I open it, I smooth out my skirt and check my breath. All good and fresh. Opening the door, I'm greeted by a very good-looking Alexander.
He's wearing a black blue jean jacket with grey jeans and black shoes, he's looks slick. He must eat, sleep and breath in that jean jacket, because every time I see him he's wearing. I'm not objecting to it he looks good.
"Hey come on in." I say stepping out the way so he could walk in. As he steps in the house, I lock the front door and trail behind him as we walk in to the Livingroom. We come around the couch and plop down. I watch him as he observes all the snacks on the table. I bite at my finger nails.
"With all these snacks this could last us 3 days." He says picking up a soda and leaning back.
"I didn't know what you liked so I got everything 'move snack worthy' from the kitchen." I tell him.
"You did well because I like all these snacks. Thank you." He says politely. He's so apperceptive.
"That's great, just great." I say clasping my hands together.
"So, what are we watching?" He asked pulling me closer to him. His hand slings over my shoulder, he's so warm. I think I can get used to him being so close to me.
"I was thinking of us watching Wonder Women 1984. My Grandpa and his girlfriend went to go see it last week and they loved it. Said it was highly recommended to watch." I say looking over to him. The moons light comes through the window shining bright on his chiseled chin.
"If it's highly recommended, we have to watch it then." He leans forward and hands the remote to me.
"Alright." I cozy up to him and turn the movie on. Hope it's good.
45 minutes into the movie...
"Pedro Pascal is really doing well in this movie." I say biting on my twizzler.
"Who's Pedro Pascal." Alexander asks looking at me.
"Who's Pedro Pa- he's Max Lord." I tell him pointing to Pedro on the screen.
"Oh ok." He says plainly.
"You never heard of Pedro Pascal." He shakes his head at me. "Games of Thrones... Narcos, Mandalorian none of this is ringing a bell is it?" He shakes his head at me again. "Well, he's really cute." He swiftly turns his head at me giving me a crazy look.
I laugh at him and pet his face. "He isn't cuter than you."
"That's better." He pats me on the thigh.
Once the movie starts to wind down, I turn towards Alexander. He looks at me, knowing I have something to say.
"What is it Quinn?" He asked rubbing the back of my head. His touch is so intoxicating.
"Why haven't you kissed me?" I blurted out. As soon as the words leave my mouth, I clasp my hands over it. He gives me a crazy look, obviously thrown off by the question. Leaning forward he grabs the remote and pauses the movie.
"What?
Oh god maybe I shouldn't have said anything.
