Chapter 5

Violet Ashlock

I rested my head on my hand and looked at Austin dreamy. He rolled his sleeves up and started to cook. That was the most sexiest thing that I've ever seen.

"Do I look sexy?" He asked suddenly and I slipped my elbow. I drank my wine and looked away.

"Don't be shy, Violet." He smirked and I sighed. I was trying to control myself because I love this feeling so much. I drank all the wine in my glass and got up from the seat. I walked towards his apartment's balcony to get some fresh air because my body's circulation is not working.

I took a really deep breath.. and let it out slowly. I closed my eyes and just let the cold breeze hit me. Suddenly Austin slipped his arms around my waist from the back.

"Austin.." I released his arm and turned to him.

"The food is ready.. let's eat." He smiled and held my hand. He pulled me inside and gestured me to sit.

"This looks so good.." I said.

"I hope you'll like it." He made carbonara spaghetti and salmon steak.

"I think I will love it." I smiled at him and he gestured to me to eat. I sliced the salmon and put it into my mouth. I looked at him and smiled widely.

"It's really good.."

"Well.. Good to know that you like it."

"Speaking of this.. Why?" I put my fork and knife down. I crossed my arms in front of my chest and raised his eyebrows.

"What do you mean 'why'?"

"You suddenly act so nice and even kiss me and-"

"You know that we both have this attraction, you felt it right?" He asked and my jaw dropped on the floor.

"I don't want to push it away no more.. I want us to be real." He said and that got me speechless. He moved his seat beside me, I can't take my eyes off him. I felt so happy but I feel.. suspicious too.

"Feel that?" He asked when he held my hand and I nodded weakly. He leaned to me slowly and I closed my eyes. Suddenly he laughed and I opened my eyes.

"There's something on the side of your mouth." He said and I felt so embarrassed. My face turned red and I glared at him. I continued to eat.

"Are you mad?" He asked but I ignored him. I ate the food slowly and just glanced at him secretly. He kept his eyes on me and chuckled everytime he caught me glancing.

"Violet.." He called and I still ignored him.

"Violet."

"I'm eat-" When I turned to him, he caught my wrist.

"Beautiful.. is it good?" My breath got hitch when he said that. We both looked at each other for a while until I pulled my wrist from him. I continued to eat.

"It's good." I said after finishing it.

"Well.. glad that you like it. Wine?" He asked and I nodded. He poured the wine to my glass.

"Thankyou for the meal.. but I think I better go." I said and got up from my chair. I gave him a really arrogant look and took my clutch. I walked towards the door when he suddenly said..

"Beautiful.. it's not free." That made me stop, I turned to him.

"And what do you have in mind?" I asked, raising my eyebrows.

"A date?" He asked, smirking and I laughed arrogantly.

"No thankyou." I said and turned my body around again towards the door.

"Playing hard to get?" He asked and I ignored him. I walked out from his apartment and went down to the lobby. I looked at the time and walked out from the building.

"It's late, let me take you home." I smirked hearing Austin said that. I think this boy up for something.

"No thankyou.. I can get a ta-" He caught my wrist and pulled me towards him. He circled his arm around my waist.

"What are yo-"

"Gosh.. You really look ravishing tonight." He said and that got me good. I tried to push him away.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow at 7, let's have a dinner date." I looked up to him and he smiled.

"Austin.. Do you know that you're being weird? You knew that we had something at Izac's party, after that you've been avoiding me." I said truthfully.

"I told you that I know we had something but I was afraid that it might turn into something.. you know.. relationship.." He said that and I raised my eyebrows.

"And why do you wan-"

"Because I can't hold it anymore. I want you.. I really want you." That got my heart melt.

"Okay fine.." I pushed him away.

"Now let me take you home." He held my hand and pulled me back to the building. We went down to the basement and got into his car.

"Let me." He said as he pulled the seatbelt on for me and our faces were so close to each other, it's making me blush so hard.

"Let's go.. care telling me where your house is?" He asked and I nodded. He drove out from the building and I showed him the way to my house. For me it's a little bit awkward because.. you know that I kinda like this guy. It's really weird to see him having this interest in me.

"The second house on the right."

"Okay." I gestured my guard to open the door and Austin parked his car right in front of my house.

"Thankyou." I said as I opened the seatbelt. When I was going to open the door, he stopped me and I looked at him confuse.

"Is there something wrong?" I asked.

"No goodnight kiss?" He asked and I chuckled.

"No." I smiled and got out from his car.

"Thankyou for the food and taking me home." I said and he nodded.

"See you tomorrow beautiful." He said and I waved back. He drove out his car from my house and I smiled widely. I jumped excitedly and walked inside the house. I can't wait for tomorrow! I need to pick tomorrow's dress now!
