The Boy Next Door

Chapter 3

CHAPTER 3:

As I line up at the very end of the line. I feel a presence of someone. I just ignore it because it could just be some one lining up the same reason I am. Until....

"Getting a late lunch I see". Jackson whispered in my ear. I turned around to face him and didn't realize how close he was near me, until now.

He smelt of a sweet cologne. Nothing I've ever smelt before. But I'm just going to go with the scent of Jackson.

Jackson turned his head to the side a bit and cocked an eyebrow. "Speechless?" He asked now with a smirk.

Why can't I find my words?

Because your staring at him like an idiot yet again.

My conscious reminded me.

Coming back to reality I simply replied hey. But from his reaction. It's obvious he didn't understand what I said.

Great I just made up my own language. Known as jibberish. High five.

Finally finding my words I cleared my throat and casually said "ah yes, I'm all ready to order except I don't know what type of unhealthy food to get from the lolly bar. Care to help?"

"Sure what are you getting? I'll order it then surprise you with your....unhealthy food" he smiled at me ever so sweetly.

I told Jackson what I was getting. A ceasar salad and a bottle of water and he chose mea treat.

I watched him order my food casually and yet he still manages to look damn fine doing it.

Turning around he gave me my food and smiled. I looked down at my treat. It was a bar of chocolate. The red lindor chocolate that's expensive for a chocolate but so good and happens to be my favorite. I looked up to him and gave Jackson a smile. "Thank you Jackson, this happens to be my favorite."

Jackson took a small step towards me closing the small gap we had between us. "Well your welcome."

I found my self looking in to his deep beautiful aquarium blue eyes. And I couldn't look away.

Just as I was about to say something I heard Luke and Chelsea's voices calling my name and beckoning me to get back to them. I turn back to Jackson and smile sweetly. "Thanks again. I have to go now but hopefully we can talk again?" And with a smile in return and a quick reply "sure". Jackson turned on his heel and walked away.
