He brought a chair over to the front of the class and plopped next to my seat. He was incredibly close to me - resting his elbow on my desk - and our elbows were touching and occasionally bumping into each other. He reached over and played with my stationary on my desk - clicking and spinning my pens in his thin fingers.
Both of us were silent.
Then he said, "How was your holidays?"
I looked at him and saw him staring back at me. His hands remained playing with my pens, but the look he bore on his face showed that he expected an answer and that he hadn't asked that just for fun.
"It was okay, I guess," I answered awkwardly. I shifted in my seat. Hell, how I hated feeling so awkward in his presence. Whenever I'm consumed by awkward-ness, I would either trip or mumble my words.
Something bad was mostly likely chanced to happen whenever I felt awkward next to him...
"I didn't go anywhere or anything..." I continued. "Went out on outings, visited the local malls - stuff like that. You?"
He placed my pen down. "I didn't do much either," he said.
Now it was my turn to keep the ball rolling.
"You went to some showcase, didn't you? I saw the pictures you uploaded on your Facebook," I said with interest. DAMN, did that came out a bit stalker-ish?
His eyes lit up at the mention of the showcase. He smiled his incredible gorgeous smile and leaned in closer with as much interest as I had. "Yeah, I did," he confirmed proudly. "I was part of the showcase. Did you like he pictures I posted?"
Wow, I hadn't expected a verbal comment. "Yeah, I did," I said. I had to secretly stop myself from revealing about how gorgeous I thought he looked in those pictures. "The pictures were quite yellow though...cause of the lighting. But overall, I thought they were nice." Well, I might as well be honest.
He took a while to respond to my comment. Then he said, "But do you like them? Do you like my profile picture? Isn't it nice?"
Was he indirectly complimenting himself?
He's gorgeous...and he wants me to know it.
Oh well. I decided to just agree with him. I mean, I ALREADY think he's gorgeous. So I said, "Yeah, it totally is." Then added, "I thought the lights in the background were amazing. They really made the photography complete."
To be honest, I hadn't meant to squashed his ego... Although he was AMAZINGLY GORGEOUS in his profile picture, I was stating my opinion on the WHOLE picture, and to just compliment HIM (which was probably what he wanted) would be giving my secret all away.
And I couldn't let him know that I think he's gorgeous. :]
SUBJECT CHANGE.
"Hey, can I ask you for a favor?" he asked. He smiled sweetly at me that I couldn't tell exactly what it was he was going to ask me.
But it got me saying "Yes?" anyway.
"Can you bring your iPod to school tomorrow?"
I stopped awkwardly staring at him. "What...?" I said. I had heard him the first time, but my mind had trouble wrapping around what he has just asked.
"I'm wondering if I could borrow your iPod for when I go to the public tomorrow," he said. He gleamed at me with his beautiful eyes as he waited for an answer.
I gulped.
He only wants me for my iPod...?
I hesitated. I've never trusted someone with my iPod for a WHOLE day before. What if he loses it? What if an accident happens? What if, what if, what if-?
"Erm..." I couldn't find a way to reject his proposal SWEETLY. I do hope he wasn't one of those overly sensitive guys. "Sorry, but no." I smiled as sweetly as I could, hoping he wouldn't take my rejection in stride. I scrambled for an excuse.
"I couldn't possibly live through a day without my iPod," I laughed.
He returned a laugh. "That's okay." Then he turned to his work and continued jolting.
And that was my hour of satisfaction today. LOL
