Love's Melody

Chapter 3

                “Ok here’s your prize.” He leaned in and kissed me ever so lightly on the lips leaving little tingles on them, I felt my cheeks heat up a little bit right before he pulled away. He started looked forward and started the car and turning on the radio I rested my warm cheek on my hand as I stared out the window. I was watching the scenery fly by feeling really comfortable in his car even the silence didn’t seem to bug me. I started to thrum my fingers on my legs to an imaginary beat. When American honey by Lady Antebellum came on the radio I started to sing along with it when it was done I started to come back to earth and remember I was in the car with another person I looked over at Aaron who was starring at me now.

                “What?” I played coy as if I didn’t just sing along with a country song.

                “That was really good.” He looked sort of awestruck but I shook the look he gave me off.

                “Yeah well eyes on the road,” I pointed his eyes off of me and back the way of the other cars in front of us.

                “Sorry.” He looked away and his cheeks were pink as I’m sure mine were too.

                “So any names I’ll need to know?” I asked not wanting to have to learn names while I was there.

                “Well there’s Zeik, Cameron and Jake, you’ll be able to tell who is who when you get in there they fit their names just perfect.” He laughed when he looked over at me I was starting to feel nervous when it dawned on me that I was going to meet some more new people what if they don’t like me? What if there pervs or jerks? My head was starting to reel with all these questions and it caused me to get a headache. “Don’t worry they’ll like you.” He answered a few of the questions in my head almost like he was telepathic. Then he grabbed my hand and held it between his and I forgot everything I was thinking and it was all replaced with a set of newborn butterflies that were now fluttering in my stomach.

                “Thanks.” I leaned back against the window reluctantly taking my hand with me and away from his I heard a little sigh pass his lips was this moving too fast? Was the last thing in my head before we pulled into the drive way of a more modest house then the rest of the houses I’ve been to.

                “We’re here.” He rushed out and opened my door for me making me laugh just a bit.

            “Thank you.” I grabbed his hand and stepped out of the car he kissed my hand as my left foot hit the ground. I felt my cheeks blush for like the billionth time today, he kept hold of my hand and pulled me to the front door of the house as he rang the doorbell.

            A tall, tan and blonde hair boy opened the door “finally you’re-” He stopped when he caught eyes with mine “who’s this?” he looked me up and down making me feel really uncomfortable I squirmed and kind of hid behind Aaron feeling his back shake a little bit as a chuckle rumbled out of his mouth.

            “this is Anna, Anna this is Zeik,” he never took his eyes off of me but he did reach his hand out for a shake.

            “It’s nice to meet you.” I shook his hand back and he made a face almost saying not bad.

            “Like wise.”  He finally stopped staring at me and turned to Aaron.

            “Dang your girlfriend is h. o. t. hot!” he annunciated each word and letter.

            “She’s not my girlfriend.” He said indifferently.

            “Oh really then maybe she’ll be mine!” his golden eyes met with mine as if asking me to answer.
