《My Princess》Chapter 21: Isabella

Advertisement

September 7, Monday

I watch as Grayson leaves my sight. Trees start to fill my vision once again. I miss him. I already want to see him again. I want to feel his warmth around me.

"So Izzy. I heard you kissed Grayson last night." Cara says making me blush. Gosh, Alex is such a freaking snitch.

"Um yeah. We kissed." I say quietly.

"And you guys slept together." Cara says making my entire body light up. This is so embarrassing. Especially in front of Alex.

"Do you like him?" I watch out the window trying to process my thoughts. Do I like him? Heck yes. He makes my heart beat and my body burn. I don't know him that well but I want to. I want to spend more time with him.

"Yes. I just don't know what to do." I say feeling extremely exhausted for some reason.

"You guys should hang out more. Get to know each other. He likes you a lot." Alex says finally making his appearance.

"How do I know if he likes me or not?" Cara gasps loudly scaring me.

"Are you dumb? He practically clings to you like your the only way he can live. Trust me he likes you. Give him a try." Cara says yelling at me. I giggle slightly at how over dramatic she is.

"Ok." I say as silence takes over the car. Soon Cara starts blasting music to wake us all up. Town finally hits my vision making me realize how far away Graysons house was from here. He lived really deep into the woods.

"Have a good day at work. I'm leaving back to my house today so I won't see you for awhile. Still text and call me though." Cara says giving me a hug from the backseat.

"Alright. It was nice to meet you Alex. Goodbye guys. Safe travels." I say climbing out of the car. I wave them goodbye as I walk into the shop.

"Morning Becca." I say loudly so she can hear me. She wasn't at the cashier so I had no idea where she was at. I see her head pop out of the kitchen with a smile.

"I had a terrible hangover the other night. I barely can remember what happened that night. Although I do remember seeing the hulk dancing with you. Or should I say, rubbing against you." Becca says busting out laughing making my face go red as a tomato.

"Becca! Shut up. And why did you call him hulk? That's weird." I say putting my apron on. Lord this girl is crazy.

"Are you dumb? He's literally the size of hulk. And he's scary as hell. There no way I would want to get in a fight with him." Becca says patting my shoulder. Why do people keep calling me dumb? Also it's a Monday morning, how is she so energetic?

"I'm going to go start cooking. Your giving me a migraine." I hear her giggle lightly as I walk into the kitchen. Save me someone.

"Hey, I'm Aiden." A man says from behind me scaring the living daylights out of me. I turn around to see a very large man, almost as tall as Grayson. Although he didn't have muscles.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. Actually I was trying not to." He says walking up to me. He holds his hand out for me to shake and I do.

"It's ok. I'm just jumpy lately. I'm Isabella." I say letting go of his hand. Aiden had brown hair with a streak of red. He was wearing a Star Wars shirt with ripped jeans and classes. Definitely someone I don't have to worry about.

"I'll be doing the cleaning and stuff. So if your busy and need someone to do the dishes or you spilt something, let me know. I'm your man." Aiden says with a wide grin making me smile. His smile was contagious.

"Thanks. I'll remember that. You can do my dirty work." I laugh as well as Aiden.

I soon get back to work. Making enough treats to kill someone. For a little while I forgot about Grayson. Only a little. Except for when I got home and sat down. I was alone and now was consumed by him again.

What was he doing? What was he thinking? I wonder if he misses me?

I turn on the tv to kill my curiosity. Only, the pictures flash in front of my eyes. The sound drowns out as I hear Graysons voice. I feel his hands on my bare thighs. The unnatural warmth they leave behind.

Quickly jumping out of my thoughts me phone dings. I pick it up and look at the number. It wasn't registered in my phone. As soon as I open my phone and look at the message I freeze.
