Deadly Gorgeous Beauty (3 page)

"It’s Jake Hearten." he answered me.

And I liked his name.

We started talking just learning about each
other but I found me doing most of the talking, which was bad as he
was going to know more about me than I would about him.

He then gazed straight into my eyes and I
ended up lost in those beautiful eyes of his that just riled me in
like a magnet. I also noticed that at night his eyes turned into
different shades of blue which was even more beautiful.

I then looked at his gorgeous lips and this
created an urge in me to kiss him. So I leant forward across the
table and I was about to kiss him.

Then BAM! I realized this had turned into a
date and I was about to kiss Jake but he had a girlfriend and I
refused to be anyone's second girlfriend.

I quickly leant back, got out of my chair and
I was about to go out through the door when a hand grabbed me. I
just knew it was him as his touch always gave me that burning
feeling.

He pulled me so that I was now facing him. I
then noticed the pained expression on his face and I don't know why
but it really hurt me to see him like this.

"Sonia did I do anything wrong?" He
desperately asked me. So I decided to tell him straight in his
face.

"Jake you have a Girlfriend and I feel like
this was turning into a date so that is why I have decided to leave
since I only agreed to dinner as new friends."

But the real truth was also that I had
quickly fallen in love with this guy and knowing he had a
girlfriend just made me angry. Surprisingly my words seemed to
shock him for a while.

"What are you talking about?" He asked me
while looking confused. I was really shocked that he really was
denying the fact that he had a girlfriend.

I looked at his face trying to see if he is
telling the truth or lying as I'm good at reading people's faces. I
could see he was still confused so I pushed harder to make him
confess maybe he was an award winning actor. With his gorgeous
looks I would not doubt the possibility of that being true.

"What about the hot blondie at the hospital."
I replied him with an accusing tone.

He first looked at my face trying to read if
I'm serious then he burst into laughter. That irritated me even
more so I shouted at him.

"What's so funny?"

This stopped him from laughing and he started
to take a step close to me making our bodies almost touch. This
made me feel uncomfortable as this created an urge in me to just
wrap my arms around that magnificent body of his.

I took a step back and he took a step
forward. We did his three times until I found myself trapped
because of the wall behind me. I looked sideways to see if I could
escape but he noticed that and blocked my way out with his
arms.

He was now really close to me as I could feel
his breath on my face. My heart was already beating really fast and
my body was reacting like crazy to him being close.

I think he was doing this intentionally as I
noticed the smirk on his face but he had a girlfriend why couldn't
he just leave me alone.

His next words made me feel stupid for
thinking that as he whispered in my ear and said seductively in a
playing tone,

“Hmmm you know I never thought of you as the
jealous type and I'm really fluttered by that."

Before I could say anything he then
added,

"By the way the hot blondie is my
sister."

He winked at me then removed his arms still
with smirk on his face and went to stare at the ocean view. I just
stood there with my cheeks flushing red.

I mean this was really embarrassing as I had
accused this guy of having a girlfriend who turned out to be his
sister. Where did all this jealousy I felt come from? I asked
myself. I just met this guy today and he was already making me go
crazy.

What was happening to me?

I did not know how I was going to face him so
I decided the only thing to do was to escape. But just as I was
about to exit I heard a fake cough "damn." I thought to myself I
should have just changed into a rat and escaped already.

He looked at me and said with a smirk on his
face,

"Miss Clemton are you going already, I just
thought you would like to wait for desert and just a question how
were you planning on getting home?"

Wow I really did not think this through, I
just thought about the car part where I could just shift into a
bird and fly home. But that's when I realized I really didn't know
my way home from this place even as a bird I don't think I could
find my way without directions.

What made me more irritated was the smirk on
his face it’s like he was enjoying taunting me.

"I'm never ever going to accept any offer for
dinner from any stranger." I angrily mumbled to myself.

"What's that Miss Clemton?" He replied me in
a playful tone and I just mumbled "nothing".

I then came up with an incredible lie to put
him in place as he was treating me like a kid so I asked him.

"How do you know that I was not going to the
bathroom?" While mimicking the playful tone he used on me.

He chuckled then said "Miss Clemton who told
you the bathroom was that side". To my horror I noticed he was
correct as I saw the bathrooms were on the left side. To make it
more embarrassing the door was written in big capital letters
BATHROOM.

Because of my stubbornness I just huffed at
him and went straight for the bathroom.

I entered the bathroom and it looked nice and
really clean. I stared at the mirror just thinking about the events
of today and how I ended up here with this deadly gorgeous
beauty.

Suddenly my phone ringed playing I hate how
much I love you by Rhianna ft Neyo, I know I need to update my ring
tone as the song is too old.

However the words "I hate how much I love you
boy." from the song caught my attention making me think was I
really in love with Jake.

But it had only been one day.

Was he truly the one, my very own prince
charming?

I don't know how long I stayed thinking like
that until I realized my phone was still ringing only to find its
my best friend Stacy.

Always on cue I hate witches. Yep apparently
my best friend was a witch. Witches could live forever, read and
communicate with minds, see the future and do all sorts of cool
witchy stuff.

She screamed on the phone from excitement
like a crazy child then finally said in a high pitch squeaked
voice,

"Sonia some little birdie told me that you
went on a date with some hot guy."

"Stacy I'm not on a date its just a thank you
dinner." I start protesting but she did not listen to me and
continued

"I need a picture of him now." She said in a
voice that did not take no as an answer.

I was still annoyed by Jake so I simply told
her "No." then she started black mailing me saying that if I do not
send any picture she was going to take one of my embarrassing
pictures and post it on Facebook.

This got my attention so I ended up agreeing
and "What some friend I have!" I thought to myself at least she had
forgiven me for earlier.

I knew the reason she wanted the picture was
so that she could use her witch powers to find everything about the
guy. She was very protective of me and always wanted to make sure I
was safe and in no danger.

But how was i going to get a picture from
Jake after all I was still angry with him. Maybe I could just take
it when he was not looking, with that thought I went back to the
dreaded room.

The waiter brought Vanilla chocolate ice
cream my favorite flavor and I finished the whole bowl while giving
Mr you know who the silent treatment. I could feel his gaze on me
but I did not want to end up kissing him so I avoided his lips at
all cost. I tried to take a picture of him secretly but I was not
succeeding as every time I tried he was hiding his face with the
menu booklet.

Because I was very desperate I decided to ask
him politely while pulling my puppy dog eyes on him and I said,
"The kind Mr. Hearten can I please have a picture of you."

He just bursts into laughter at this, then he
said in a serious tone, "No!"

I looked at him in shock as nobody had ever
resisted my puppy dog eyes so I went to the more desperate strategy
of bribing and I said,

"Please I will do anything but on one
condition, no swimming as I can't swim."

I looked at him waiting for an answer but
regretted doing that as my drooling mode came up when he flashed me
one of his angelic grins. He leaned up more to me causing my heart
to beat faster and because of the grin I was expecting the
worst.

He whispered in my ear and said" I will do it
if."

Before he could finish his sentence I started
to think of all the horrible things he could make me do then he
finished his sentence by saying,

"If you agree to take swimming lessons from
me."

I just looked at this guy, did he just say
swimming lessons but I hated swimming and was is it not one of my
conditions. So I answered him annoyedly "Did I not say one of my
conditions was no swimming."

He replied me with a smirk "Yes you said no
swimming but you did not say no swimming lessons."

I stared at him irritated because he thought
he knew better than me so I replied him sassily "I don't really
care because I can take the picture when you're not looking."

He looked at me and said,

"You tried that once but did you
succeed?"

I just stared at him dumb folded to know he
knew I was trying to take a picture of him all this time. Then an
idea came to me.

"Don’t bother I can just find a guy as
gorgeous as you and just take their picture.” I told him while
sticking my tongue out.

That's when I realized I had just told him I
thought he was gorgeous and this made me blush uncontrollably when
he replied,

"You think I'm gorgeous?" in a seductive
tone.

I just looked down and my face was still
burning red. To change the subject I just lowly muttered,

"Fine I take the deal."

With those words said he took my phone, took
a picture of himself and he even entered his number and took mine.
I looked at him and I asked playfully

"Did I say I wanted your number or you should
take mine Jake?"

"Well I just saw a pretty looking phone lying
on my table pleading for my number so to be generous and end its
misery I decided to give it what it wants" he also said in a
playful voice. I rolled my eyes and replied

"Wow what a generous man you are Mr. Hearten
thank you for putting my phone out of its misery."

After that we both burst into fits of
laughter. Jake then stood up and took my hand as it was time to
go.

"Why is
the restaurant so empty?" I asked Jake after sending Stacy his
picture and her confirming he is no "danger." to me.

"Everybody's already left." he answered me. I
checked my watch and was surprised to see it was almost
midnight.

"Wow." I thought to myself,

"Jake did we really talk that long?" I asked
him. He just nodded his head and gave me an angelic smile.

When I noticed the golden door I then asked
him about it being made of gold and he nodded causing my mouth to
open wide from shock.

I then thought to myself if it was really
made of gold then I was going to find myself a chainsaw or a hammer
to break that door because one piece could make me a millionaire. I
did not care if I had to fight that big scary bouncer myself.

While Jake was driving me home, I then
received a text from Stacy saying she was having a party at my
apartment since I lived with her. I sighed as this meant I was not
getting any sleep as apparently witches could choose whether they
wanted to sleep or not and Stacy's parties were really loud.

Jake looked at me and asked "what's wrong?"
so I told him about my sleep situation. To solve it he invited me
to sleep in his guest room at his house.

"Come on I won't Mind." he persuasively said
to me as I was still looking at him un surely.

I started thinking to myself should I accept
this offer or not because if I do I was just afraid of where it
might lead to.

"Fine I will go with you so I can get some
sleep but no funny business mister." I sternly said to Jake while
giving him the eye to show him I was very serious.

I had decided to accept as I wanted to sleep
and I was trusting Jake not to do anything funny so I texted Stacy
telling her I was not coming. As always on cue Stacy phoned me and
I really did not want to answer.

But I knew she would sense that being a witch
and all so I ended up answering. She then told me to put the phone
on loud speaker and me being an idiot I did it until I realized she
had used her witch controlling voice on me. How dare she?

"JAKE are you taking her to your home?" She
started yelling meaning she was already drunk. I knew that because
Stacy always yelled whenever she was completely drunk.

"Yes." Jake replied the question casually
like he was talking to a normal person.

"I just hope Jake knew he was talking to a
drunk person because he was going to get asked some stupid
questions." I thought to myself.

"Is it because you want her to sleep there or
to sleep with her." Stacy continued yelling. After that question I
looked at Jake with embarrassment on my face waiting for a reaction
but instead he just casually answered,

"Well Stacy, I have no choice for now but to
do option one unless your friend here changes her mind I would love
to do option two with her."

I glared at Jake for saying that.

"Oooooh Sonia where did you get yourself such
a fine charming gentlemen."
