Chereads / When Princess Falls / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Not just a guy.

A yummy guy. Even if I'm only 15 years old, I know the difference of a yummy from a not so yummy guy.

I came closer and stood on top of the big rock beside the river to  have a magnificent view of the yummy guy.

I was mesmerized with the way he expertly swims through the water. The ripples of the muscles on his long and graceful arms. The way his head bobbed up and below the water. It was truly mesmerizing. I think I wasn't even breathing and blinking while looking at the guy. He was enjoying his swim that he was oblivious of the fact that someone is watching him.

He dived down again and I anticipated for him to surface on the same spot.  But after almost 2 minutes of waiting he still didn't surface. He drowned? Oh my gosh! Did he drown because of my intense stare?

 "Boo!"

I shrieked and took a step backward. I nearly fell down the river. Then I saw the yummy guy beside the big stone.. How did he get here?

"Did you enjoy the show?" He said with a mischievous smile on his face. I feel my face heated up because he caught me peeping and the fact that he is so handsome when he smiles.

 "I'm not watching you. Why would I do that?" Of course, I wouldn't allow myself to be embarrassed in front of a handsome guy.

"What are you doing then?" He started getting out of the river and I started retreating.

"I'm looking for my horse."

"At the river?" He said with an amused expression.

"Why? Can't horses take a swim in the river?" I said raising my chin up.   

"It wouldn't hurt if you will admit that you are peeping either."

"And why would I do that, hmm? You're not that pleasant to the eyes. " I saw how brows raised up. I also raised my brows at him.

"Okay, as you say. You are not from here isn't it? I've never seen you before. I'm Harley." He extended his hand but I just look at it. I would never shake hand to a half-naked guy. I just look at him.

"It's rude to introduce yourself to a girl when you're half naked. It's not proper."

"Ah... so I need to swim back to the other side, get my clothes and swim back here just to introduce myself to you beloved Princess?" Mockery is evident in his voice.

"You don't have to mock me. I am just telling you how to act properly. You know. Proper decorum. GMRC. Good manners and right conduct." I stressed at him

"Sometimes it is better to be practical. It depends mainly on the circumstances and the situation." He stressed also. He is acting like he is better than me? Never.  

"Anyway, I am not interested to know your name. Because infairness to you, your name is ugly."  I snapped at him. I'm irritated. Who does he think he is?

"In fairness, you are bitchy." He retorted and I snorted at him.

"You looked like a beggar." I snapped at him totally losing my cool.

"And you look like "payaso"." He snapped back. Really? This guy is not even a gentleman. Yeah he is handsome but he doesn't have manners.  What's that?

"What's payaso?" I can't stop myself from asking. What the heck is payaso?

"You don't know what's payaso?"

"Are you saying that I'm stupid!?" It is obvious that he is insulting me. Is the word payaso, the basis of intelligence now? Excuse me!

"It came from you. I didn't say that." The nerve!

"Snob." I turned my back at him. I don't wanna see him. Ever. Again.

"Bitchy! I wish you'd fall down so you will loosen up."

He shouted at me. I raised my chin and gave him a proud glance.  And I smiled charmingly at him.

"I won't trip over… ever." I stressed . Then…"aaaahhhhh!" I trip and landed on the grass.

"Are you okay?" He is suddenly beside me and helping me get up.  I brushed him away.

"Don't touch me. You curse me. You're a witch." I shrieked at him

"What!?"

"I will tell my dad and he will sue you! You will rot in jail!"
