Today a reader, tomorrow a leader. Margaret Fuller.
Chapter 17.
I felt a tap on my body, still in my sleep as i poked it away. I wasn't going to let anyone disturb my sleep.
When am sleeping I usually don't like disturbance, I feel that when sleeping people should learn how to respect that and leave you. Seriously.
The touch became sivere as i cringe to it, my eyes flew open and the sun hit me with an excruciating pain at my back. I stood up halfway.
The sun turned out not to be the only hitting but the person I had in front of me.
He flinched back a little to my sudden reaction as he said.
"Gela?" Surprised expression was all over his face as I also kept the same expression as his.
I wiped my eyes and blinked a few times as my eyes where still on him.
It might turn out to be a dream, so I stood upright but still staring at him.
"Are you now in my dreams" I bit back to his surprised expression.
He still stares at me with an surprised expression but yet mysteriously.
"If you want me to be Gela" He replied as he took a step forward.
Is he really here.
"I didn't know you could stuck?" I asked and removed my gaze from him. Am sure his gaze where still completely on me but I didn't mind.
What is he doing here anyways, I know this is a park but it's old and no one except from the old gardner I saw last night normally do be here.
I didn't receive any answer from him but his eyes where seriously watching all my movements.
"You spent the night here?" He asked and gazed at the place. His face expression was kept irritated but his eyes where saying something different.
He immediately brought his gaze to me and said.
"Hmm" he bluntly said.
"What does it look like" I also said but my eyes where looking straight in his as I snapped it out quickly.
"You might catch a disease Gela" he said as he stepped forward slowly, his eyes where directly straight to mine.
The steps he took towards me looked intimidated but I didn't move back or try to flinch cause making him think he has an effect on me might be a wrong move.
"Haven't you heard, the ones who catches the disease are the ones who thinks most of it" I said and still stood still.
"Tell me about it" he replied as I rolled my eyes.
Can I be spared from him, I don't want this conversation. Thinking about last night again I stepped back seeing he wanted a reply from me.
What does he mean 'i might catch a disease'
What is he even doing here?
Still not sure.
I shaked my head using my brains as I noticed something.
Isa.
She was here last night with me. I looked around for a while.
The park is really blonde cause I couldn't see the views from my recent position.
Where could she be?
I removed my gaze completely from Alex as I took some few steps away from him.
Didn't mind if he left or stayed, I just needed to find Isabella. Wondering where she could be.
I wondered around, stucking my head in places but she was not in view.
Was she kidnapped?
No way!
The grasses in this park where old and not fresh, the grasses where grown in a way that I couldn't see the root of it.
Still searching for Isabella as my eyes turned back and landed on Alex, who had his eyes on me for a while.
I removed my gaze from him then narrowed it and continued taking a few steps forward.
I could still feel his eyes on me as I turned back again and finally said "You lost your dog"
"I could ask you the same thing" he replied. I bit my lips to his statement.
"What are your doing here, Gela?" He asked and this time it was with a surprising glare. I could ask him the same question.
"Searching for your dog" I said with my voice full of sacarsm. I stared at his glare but my face expression didn't change from the none expression.
I didn't want him around here but his here and wouldn't spare me a glance. What is really wrong with him. Today his nice, the other day his a Poison.
I told him how I felt about our kiss but he doesn't seem worried.
Maybe I should forget the whole scene and try to move on. Trying to move on totally means I should stop staring at him cause his face has an addicting spell on me.
"I could help" he offered as he tried to take a step closer to me.
I moved backwards and flicked my hair at the side of my right ear as the left side of my hair where poured, I fastly answered and said "Thank you but i don't need it"
He nodded to the rejection, his hands where at his back pocket as he brought them out and slide it into the front pocket. His jeans where black as his jacket also. The white he supposedly wore that was been covered by the black jacket where shinning unstoppable.
I stepped back again, admiring all these might make me fall into his trap again.
I should stop staring at him now. I removed my eyes as I turned to the opposite directions.
"I couldn't find Isabella" I Said fastly, I wondered it wouldn't be a crime if I tell him.
Who knows maybe he had come across her, I just needed to find her. Am really sure she didn't get missing. This park was mostly built for our generation when we where both kids and I could also say she knows this place as much as I do.
"Is she missing?" He said and all of a sudden his voice turned out concerned.
I turned my head back to meet his face and I could see his eyes seriously searching around.
I swallowed hard.
"I don't know, we both spent the night here" I paused then removed my gaze and added "now I can't find her."
"Hmm"he said and I immediately brought my gaze back to him as I was confused.
"What?" I asked.
"Two diseases" he laughed slightly to his not funny joke.
Why his he laughing, what's funny.
I rolled my eyes to his mock on Isabella and me. I stared at him as his teeth where completely white under the sun and his laugh was miserably stunning.
Removing my gaze from his charms as I turn on my foots to the other directions then he added. "Don't be mad, seriously"
I stopped just to hear what he has to say as he said "You didn't keep your dog in leach, she was bound to get missing"
What!
Dog?
I raised my eye brows in confusion.
"Excuse me?" I asked.
