Chapter 19 - Heartbeats

Carlyx was being worried about Aaron. He took his hands towards the pocket of his jeans taking out his expensive phone. He placed a call to Aaron excusing himself for a while from Hazel.

Carlyx: " Are you okay ? Where are you?"

He asked him rapidly as he picked call.

Aaron: " I am at ice cream shop.I am okay bro, and where are you? By the way which flavour do you want for ice cream?"

"I will be taking the car you should go home by taxi." He said in an icy cold tone.

Carlyx hung up on phone without answering Aaron's question.

Aaron on the other side must have been like WTF bro?

He put back his phone in his pocket. He took up his green pair of eyes and searched for the one whom he wanted to avoid few hours ago. His eyes fell upon the girl standing in front of him. He could see Hazel being uncomfortable from the wet shirt. It felt a bit sticky because of the syrup that was poured on Americano.

"Get in the car please." Carlyx said in his parky tone.

After saying these words Carlyx took his steps closer to the woman standing in front of him. They were so close that they could feel eachother's breath. Carlyx's cold breath was hitting Hazel's forehead. Both searched eachother's eyes fondly.

Hazel's heart was pacing million times faster each second. She could feel her legs becoming weak. A stream of shivers started running through her spine. They could feel a storm of butterflies in their stomach. It was giving them an appealing feel, that they both liked. They wanted to stay like that for some time.

Carlyx took out his hand that was resting inside the pocket of his jeans . He put his hand inside the pocket of the black jacket that Hazel was wearing. He searched the pocket for a while. He took out the keys of the car present inside it. They maintained the eye contact this whole time.

Aaron payed the bill, he accidentally left the car keys on the table they ate at. Fortunately Carlyx saw those keys and put them inside the right pocket of his jacket.

Hazel just gulped as she was just going to start trembling any minute because of the small distance that was left between their faces. She just thought Carlyx was going to kiss her. But why would he kiss her? Wasn't this just their second meeting?

After taking the car keys in his hands , Carlyx longed the distance between them by taking his steps backwards. They broke the eye contact.

While they were close, Carlyx thought his heart was going to explode any minute.

Hazel broke the awkward silence.

" It's okay I can go by myself and thank you so much for the jacket I will return it soon." Hazel said while placing a smile on her heart shaped lips.

" I think you should change your clothes first, you must be feeling uncomfortable. Get in the car I will buy you new clothes and also it was my fault.You had to go through all this. So please accept my request as my apology. " Carlyx stated in his husky cold voice.

Hazel did not want to leave him so soon today. She developed an urge to spend some more time with that man. She wanted to get lost in those green oceans for some more time.
