Tied to Our Fate

I woke up the next morning bright and early with this funny feeling in my gut. Rolling over I looked at the clock and it read 8:25. It was way too early for me to be up because I was off again today. Trying to go back didn’t work so I got up and took a quick shower and through on a t shirt and shorts and wandering downstairs to make breakfast. First, coffee. I needed coffee.
I made the coffee and was waiting for it to brew and I looked out front in the driveway where Zack’s car sat.
Hmmm, he must of got home sometime this morning because he wasn’t back at around midnight when I got home.
I poured some coffee with my sugar and my favorite French vanilla creamer and I’d go sit on the patio. Taking a seat and picked up my phone and noticed I had a text.
Hey, I know you probably not up yet but I just wanted to say good morning. It read.
It was from Brian.
There was that funny feeling in my stomach again.I guess you could call it butterflies but it felt more like a heard of elephants in there. A smile broke on my face as I replied to his message.
Hey, I’m awake. I’m already sitting on the patio having my coffee. Lol
Not a minute later I got a reply.
Well, do you want to have breakfast? My treat. Lol
That sounds good.:)

Ok, I’ll pick you up in about 30 mins if that’s ok.

Yeah, that’s ok.

I slowly wandered back upstairs to get dressed and do something with this mop on my head. Finally I just decided to put it in a messy bun on top of my head and be done with it then a little mascara and my sunglasses and I was good to go.
Right on time, I saw Brian’s car pull up in the driveway and I headed out the front door, putting on my sunglasses to block out the bright morning sun.
“I figured you would still be asleep still.” I mentioned as I got in the car.
“Couldn’t sleep.” He replied.
“Me either.”
“So you just want to go to my house and I’ll make you breakfast?”
“You can cook?”
“Ye, I can. Why are you so surprised by that?” he laughed.
“Nothing, I just didn’t take you for the domestic type.” I smiled.
“Well, I’m full of surprises, just you wait and see.” He smirked, wiggling his eyebrows.
I smiled, rolling my eyes.
He backed the car out of the driveway and we headed to his house.
“Come on in!” he announced, as he opened the front door of his house.
His house was surprisingly clean. He was a man so I expected it to be a little dirty but it was actually pretty clean.
He led the way to the kitchen.
“Take a seat,” he began pointing to the bar.
“And tell me what you want.”
I sat down at the high stools at the bar facing the stove.
“I don’t know. What can you make?”
“Let’s see, I can make eggs, eggs, bacon and eggs. Maybe French toast.” He stated seriously looking at the contents of his fridge.
I couldn’t help but laugh.
“I think I’ll take French toast if you can manage.”
“Psh, I can.” He insisted.
He pulled everything he would need out of the fridge and started to make us French toast which actually very good.
“Not bad, Haner, not bad.” I smiled, putting my plate in the sink.
He breathed on his fingernails and dusted them off on his shirt.
“I know.”
I rolled my eyes again and took my seat at the bar.
“What are you going to do today?” I asked.
He swallowed the last bite of his food and looked at me.
“I don’t know. I was kind of hoping that maybe you wanted to hang out again but if you don’t want to it’s ok.”
“No, that sounds fine to me.” I smiled.
His face lit up.
“Good.”
He stood up and placed his plate in the sink and came over to stand beside me.
“What do you want to do?”
“Doesn’t matter to me.” I shrugged.
“Want to watch a movie?” he suggested.
“Sure.”
I went to get of the stool but he stopped me, standing in front of me. I looked up into his eyes. He was very close to me again but he surprised me when he moved even closer to me. Our bodies were now touching and he looked me in the eye as he slowly moved toward me.
Oh God, Oh God, OH GOD!! My insides screamed. There were those damn elephants again.
I thought I was going to explode. And I almost did when his lips softly touched mine. I felt him sigh into the kiss as our lips moved with each other. He slowly pulled away and was smiling when I opened my eyes.
“Sorry, I couldn’t help it.” He smiled.
I shook my head.
“Don’t apologize.”
I shocked myself when I touched my lips to his. His hands found their way to my sides and mine to his arms as our lips continued to move. Before things go too heated he pulled away. He could see the disappointment on my face and laughed.
“I don’t want to get to carried away.” He whispered, kissing my cheek.
I nodded. It was a good thing he pulled away when he did because I don’t know if I was going to be able to stop if that went on much longer.
“What do you want to watch?” he asked me as I sat down on the couch.
He was in front of the TV looking through DVDs.
“You got Pulp Fiction? I haven’t seen that forever.”
“Yep.”
“Is that ok with you?”
“Yep.” He replied.
He put in the movie and took a seat next to me.
As the movie went on I couldn’t help but quotes the lines. He cocked an eyebrow at me and he smiled.
“What ain’t no country I’ve ever heard of. Do they speak English in What?” I quoted.
“What?” Brian said.
“English mother fucker! Do you speak it?”
We looked at each other before cracking up.
“I knew I liked you for some reason.” Brian smirked.
I couldn’t help but smile back as those damn elephants made their selves known again.
