In his garage apartment, Eli was strumming on his guitar. The notes that traveled through his mind diminished as flashes of a scantily clad Grace overtook his thoughts. He was still sitting there with silent hands placed upon the guitar strings, green eyes staring at the crack in the wall thinking when he heard a light tapping on the doorframe. His eyes jolted to where she stood, so innocent were her eyes as she asked permission to enter. He nodded his head, unable to break the awkward silence.
Grace fidgeted with the hem of her shirt, rubbing the pale pink material between her thumb and index finger. With her eyes cast downward, she suddenly spoke, "Eli, about earlier."
Eli drew in a sharp breath before he laid his guitar to rest on his bed. "Grace, I'm sorry. I misunderstood." he looked Grace in the eyes, "I didn't really see anything."
At this, her face flushed crimson as she tucked a stray hair behind her ear. Quietly she chuckled. "What, what did I say?" A bewildered look overtook Eli's face.
Grace's dancing eyes met his serious ones. "Not about that, not about that at all! I just want to forget about that!"
Her hand flew as she spoke and Eli looked away as he told her that he did as well, well he wishes he could forget anyway. But her creamy skin flashed through his mind.
"Then what did you need?" asked Eli patiently.
"I was just wondering what you needed earlier, you know, your intentions before the door opening scene." She spoke her eyes in direct contact with his forehead, as she could not look at him in the face without blushing again.
So Eli told her about the movies, to which she declined, and left the room. Leaving Eli alone with his thoughts once again.
