My eyes opened to the buzzing of my phone. The irritating vibration woke me from the sleep I tried so hard to get. Who could it be?
He's in your basement. Wishing on a star or walking down the stairs? –A
Even A knew who I was thinking about. The thoughts of him didn't let me sleep, not since our shower. The moment spinned in my head all over again, refusing to leave. Did Caleb feel this way too? I had been avoiding him since that morning, or maybe I was avoiding this. Whatever it was, it wasn't working.
Pulling out my iPod from my nightstand, I headed downstairs hoping to find peace in my music.
"The way you move is like a full-on rainstorm and I'm a house of cards…"
You've got to be kidding me. I gave up on my music and decided to revert back to an old habit of mine, one that Alison had worked so hard to get rid of. The light from the refrigerator blinded me temporarily and when I regained my eyesight, Caleb stood in front of me.
"Something bothering you?" Caleb had that smirk on his face saying 'I know you were thinking about me.'
I shook my head, grabbed a water bottle and tried leaving. Caleb blocked my way. What had always seemed like a dark and mysterious boy turned out to be relatively toned; toned enough to stop me. I could feel myself turning red and realized how grateful I was that it was dark.
"Not so fast, princess, you didn't answer." Caleb's eyes caught onto hers and wouldn't let go.
"Hey! It's the middle of the night." I was lost for words. More like I lost myself in his eyes. "We've got school in less than 3 hours and I need my beauty sleep."
Caleb let go with a sigh. "Alright, princess. I'll see you in the morning."
With that moment on replay in her mind, I rushed back upstairs before Caleb questioned me further. After resting my head on the comforting pillows of my bed, Caleb's image still decided to haunt me further. So much so that I had drifted off into my own world of dreams.
