Those Eyes

The tiny droplets of sweat are running down his skin; his face shinning a bit red and reflecting because of the droplets. His chin was relaxed, as was his face.

His eyes looking around.

Those eyes.

The eyes that are dark and so deep that you might lost yourself in them while looking into them.

The eyes that watch the surroundings with that suspicious glim; sometimes they show anger and sometimes happiness – but most of the time roguish arrogance.

And that body! That figure! The muscles! They complete his body to perfection and when all of this is combined with his eyes... Oh, heaven!

Oh, look! He threw the football on the other side of the field and his muscles move the right way so that they were noticed. He laughed his typical laugh and high-fived with his friends. He is so cool – and he is so hot!

I was staring at him, hoping that no one noticed and it seemed that nobody did. My eyes were glued to him and his looks. But that was not the only thing I was attracted to. Long ago I could not stand him – actually I was more afraid of him than anything else. He was the school bully and I was his target.

But not anymore.

He changed.

He changed drastically.

Now he was talking to me like with any other schoolmate – sometimes even nicer. Well, most of the time he was very nice to me, just making fun of me, but in a good way, like smiling after, to show he did not mean it seriously.

Anyway, lost in my thoughts I did not notice that he sometimes glanced in my direction and I also did not notice that football practice was over.

He slowly walked in my direction.

I was sitting on the bleachers – in the first row so that when he came, he was still standing on the field right in front of me and smirking into my face as if he knew something that I did not.

''What's up Berry?'' he asked running a hand over his mohawked head.

I was a bit startled when I heard him but did not show it. I was still watching him, but tried to look calm.

''Hello, Noah. How are you?'' I asked, playing totally calm.

''I'm cool. Especially now, seeing you ogling at me.'' He laughed but I kept my cool. He always playfully flirted with me.

Not that he means it.

He doesn't.

''Haha very funny.'' I said sarcastically, but felt my cheeks warm up. I know he noticed, because he smiled gently, but did not say anything about it.

''I just have to inform you that we need to come up with some ideas for the mash-up's we have to show next week. I don't know why we were paired up, because I know I could handle it myself, but since we are in the same boat, we have to work together. So I suggest we meat somewhere; I prefer my place; in order to select a song and create a perfect performance that will blow everyone off their chairs. I already have a few ideas but in order to show co-operation and team spirit, I decided to wait for your ideas. So I would like to ask you if you would collaborate and take some time for our duet.''

Everything what I said came to my mind in one second. I made it all up – except the part that we're paired up. I just did not want to tell him that I came only to watch him.

As I finally finished, Noah burst out in laughter thinking that I'm the funniest girl he has ever seen. I gazed at him with a smile on my face and lost myself in his voice.

After he finally calmed down, he smirked at me and said with that confident ton: ''No problem Berry. You just had to say that you wanted to hook up with me.'' He laughed again when I gasped in horror and became red as a tomato.

I just wanted to say something as I was interrupted by his friends calling him: ''Yo! Puck! What are you doing?'' Some of them came to us, smiling and teasing us as always.

''Yo, Berry! Sexy as always.'' Everyone laughed and I was so embarrassed that I wanted to hide.

''Oy, back off!'' said Noah jokingly and I was wisely silent, smiling at them.

''Man, you got yourself a chick and a half! What are you two doing anyway? Planning a date?'' said one of them and nudged Noah in the shoulder.

''Oy, I can't help if I attend two clubs! We have to work on songs you know!'' he laughed and they all chatted for a while until the coach called them. The boys slowly vanished and Noah was the last one.

''See you then at six in your room Berry.'' He smiled, winked at me and went after the boys.

''Bye Noah!'' I called after him, feeling stupid for making such a cheap move on him.
