《Dear Heart... Why Me?》Chapter 17
Advertisement
Nervously I step into her home. Inside the house was gorgeous than the outside. My eyes roam around, taking in everything. The walls were white while the floor had grey and white marble floor. It just looked so clean and elegant. Well just like it owner. The living room was spotless. I wonder how her bedroom looked. Her home felt homely
There was grey cabinet with loads of books, well I should have suspected that... she is after all a English teacher.
"Come on, you can sit on the sofa while I quickly change into something comfy" she said around to walk up the stairs
Stop hallway up the stairs she turned around "Make yourself comfortable and have a look around"
Nodding my head, I slowly walk towards the cabinet filled with books. She had a variety of books. I could see myself on the sofa, laying my head on her legs while she reads to me. The fire pit crackling while Patrick Watson played throughout the house.
That would be incredible. Moving to the walls, I looked at the pictures of her and I presume is her family. She was so cute as a child.
One picture stood out was with her and a man. She was smiling broadly, her arms dangling around his neck. While her stared at her looking in love. I slowly lifted my hand to the frame and pulled it a bit closer.
I did not know what to make of this picture. But I did not want to assume anything, seeing that she kissed me, so I guess it's a 'friend'. I had enough heartbreak to last a lifetime, I honestly did not need more.
I heard her footsteps down the steps. I retract my fingers from the picture and made my way to the sofa and sitting down.

Looking towards the staircase. She wore a long white sleeve T-shirt and some grey joggers. Her hair in a messy bun and face bare less with no makeup.
My mouth gape open with shock. This was a site I never expected ever to experience in real life.
"You look beautiful Ms Isaacs" I said without realising.
"Oh, you to kind dear. I looked terrible" she chucking waving her hand to dismiss what I said.
"And please call me Nicole, when not at school anymore" she moved towards the sofa and sat down but still kept space between us.
"Okay Ms... Nicole"
I fiddle with fingers, waiting on her to speak. There is no way I speaking first. I stared at my fingers as I felt her stare at me.
"Eva, I suspect you know what this conversation is going to be about..." I stopped her mid sentence.
"Yes, I know" I sucked a deep breath in.
"I'm your teacher and you know what happened between us in my classroom was wrong don't you?"
"I'm sorry, for whatever I did and please forgive me. I know I should have said nothing" I began to lose my breathe.
I always hated confrontation.
"Hey calm down for me" she moved closer and held my hands.
"You don't need to apologise Eva, seeing as I was the one that kissed you" Nicole spoke softly.
Calming down I sigh softly, looking at her in her eyes "Why did you kiss me?"
"I...." she paused.
"I really don't know Eva, you looked so vulnerable with wide tearing eyes and you looked so cute. I just got the sudden urge to kiss you" she stared at me with wide eyes.
"So do you like me?" I whispered
"It's okay if you say no, I just want to know so that I don't get my hopes up and fall more madly in love with you. You are so beautiful and so kind that is what make you so unique and just a loveable person" I rambled.

"I do like you sweetheart"
"But is it the same way I like you?" I questioned.
"Yes" she spoke without hesitation.
"Wow" breathlessly i stared at her as a smile form on face.
I am absolutely beaming with joy. She laughed at my shocked face.
"You so adorable" she swiped her delicate fingers across my cheek. I nuzzled my head into her hand.
"Thank you" my face blushed.
"You adorable too" I said quickly.
"Thank you sweetheart" a smile crossed her face.
"What happens now?"
"Now we just cuddle and leave the rest for later, okay?" She pulled my face closing and softly peck my lips and pulled me into her arms.
"Okay" I stared at her with wide eyes.
We sat in silence. My brain tried to comprehend everything that just happened. I was like a puppy that finally got its favourite treat. My heart race with happiness. My stomach filled with butterflies. Nothing I mean nothing can get better then this.
Leaning into her, I did not see the look of guilt and worry crossed her face. I was oblivious to what will happen in the future....

A Girl and Her Food
When a lost girl wakes up without a name, she quickly finds herself alone in a way that people around her can’t fix. Without a real plan and desperate to find what’s wrong with her, she thrashes and bites to stay alive. But human beings are weak things, that band together for strength, no matter who we are. Now if only she could work up the courage to ask one question... It’s normal to get stronger when you drink the blood of monsters. Right? Things to expect: - A powerful but kinda neurotic and emotional protagonist, with some degree of weak to strong. Or maybe strong to stronger, honestly. She's pretty rational and practical about things but won't always make the best decisions, so be warned if you super-dislike characters doing dumb stuff for emotional reasons sometimes. - Lots of dialogue and characterization, especially as we get more into it. It's focused on a single POV, but there might be some sections of other POVs later on, I'm not sure right now. - Magic is on the softer side, but I'll try to keep things fleshed out enough to avoid any obvious "well-established magic could have seemingly instantly solved this problem" moments. - I didn't add the mystery tag because I feel like it implies that this is a detective novel or something, but the story is absolutely incredibly opaque at times. So you'll have the most fun if you go into it trying to puzzle out the nature of events before they're explicitly explained!😇 - Also, I added the genre for completion, but it's gonna take a while to get to the romance. Please wait warmly and have some tea. Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge!
