ALEXANDRA POV:

" So what movie would you like to watch? " Justin asks me as he holds up two movie CDs while standing in front of me.

I look at both of them and tell him which one. I look around his house, it seems decent for a bachelor though.

Well you guess it right. I had said yes to him.

Flashback :

"You know it is getting awkward, you are quiet for 3 minutes exactly. If you don't want to go, you can say so." Justin says in monotone, rolling his eyes.

"I'll be back. I have to use the restroom." I reply and dash toward the restroom. I look around to find it empty.

"Hello, Lary? It's me, Alex." I call Lary and ask her what to do.

"Yeah. You should go if you want, we will keep an eye on him. If he does something wrong just give me a missed call. You get it? "

"Okay." I reply, leaning against the sink.
Should I go? Or should I not?

But I enjoy his company. I feel alive with him. There is this need to spend time with him. I'm so confused. What's happening to me? I have never felt like this in a long time for anyone. But after these 2 days with him, everything is changing.

I sigh, getting out of the restroom.

I have to live a little, I think while approaching him again. If he is the one and anything happens, police will be out there.

That's it. Do or die. But in my case, it is either do and die or do and live. I hope, it will be the latter.

End of flashback

After putting on the movie, Justin sits beside me on the couch, barely touching.

My whole body tenses, as scenes of the last time flashes in my mind like a filmstrip. I take a deep breath to calm my nerves down and try to concentrate on the movie.

Key word: Try

From the corner of my eye, I see him putting his arm on the back of my couch. I look at him. His eyes are on the movie but there is a little smile on his face. I look ahead, again.

After few minutes, i feel fingers moving over my shoulders lightly. Then the fingers move over my upper arm, I clench my hands on my lap but still look straight ahead. Thankfully nothing happens for a while.

Then suddenly I am being pushed against Justin's chest. I gasp, looking up at him.

He has a playful smirk with amusement in his eyes. I gulp down.

"What are you doing?" I ask him, trying not to stutter.

"What does it look like, my Sweet Alex? " he whispers, tilting his head to one side.

"Uh--" Thud. Thud. I feel my heart beats increasing.

"Hahaha" he starts laughing, throwing his head back as his chest rumbles. I narrow my eyes on him, slapping his chest. As I was going to move my hand away, he catches it, pinning it . His eyes snap towards me.

That look again in his eyes.

"Do you know how long I have been waiting to have to you this close to me?" He says before continuing,

"Do you know how long i have been waiting to have you in my arms like this?" He continues but now leaning his face down towards my face and whispering,
