*Saphira's POV*
"I'm Benjamin Al-Radji. You can call me Ben." He said looking up from under his lashes, meeting my eyes. He smiled at me again, while his cologne lingered in my nose. It smelled like… no it was… I had to gasp for air.
"And you must be Evangeline., he said with twinkles is his eyes. That made me snap out of it though.
"No, my name is Saphira actually," I corrected him.
"Too bad," he said with pouted lips. "Although, Saphira is a beautiful name, don't get me wrong, but from now on.... You're my Evangeline," he said playfully, sounding a bit priggish.
Our eyes stayed locked for a while. I couldn't seem to look away. I must of looked like a total idiot, I thought.
Then we heard a loud voice calling from behind us and our eyes unlocked. We both gazed at the girl who was making all that noise.
