Beautiful Eyed-Monster

Five minutes have passed, the longest five minutes of my life. My phone hasn’t stopped ringing, but I have somewhat relaxed. If by somewhat I mean my whole body is shaking, and I’m on the verge of losing my sanity, then yeah, I am somewhat okay.

I reach for my phone and swipe my thumb over the screen to answer it, placing it to my ear. “Calla.” His voice is profound. Even though he can’t see me, I cover my face with my hand.

“I didn’t mean to send it to you,” I say, stumbling over my words.

“No? Who did you have in mind, then?” he asks with bitterness to his voice.

I smile. “Ace, are you jealous?”

“I want to see you.”

“I’m coming back in a few days.”

“No, I want to see you now ,” he emphasizes.

Impatient as always. “It’s a two-hour drive.” I close my eyes and lie on my bed.

“I’ll be there in less than one,” he says, determination dripping from his tone.

“Ace, that’s reckless.” There’s silence, and I press my lips together. “I’ll wait. Please drive carefully.”

Ace instructs me to text him my address, and I do. My hands are sweaty as I brush my teeth and pace around my bedroom. Luckily, I took all of my posters down before leaving for university.

I glance in the mirror for the fifth time. Should I put clothes on? I check my wardrobe and find a silky robe. I try it on in front of the mirror and then take it off again. I look like a foolish idiot. What am I doing? The nerves are forcing me to become feverish.

I leave the lace underwear since I don’t have any others but shove the silky robe back in the wardrobe. Instead, I go to my bag and pull out a long white t-shirt, yanking it over my head.

The sound of Ace’s motorcycle jolts me from my thoughts. It rumbles as he pulls into the driveway, cutting the engine. Is he here already? That was definitely less than two hours.

I unlock the front door. He’s on my porch, dressed from head to toe in black—my favorite “color” on him. I open the door wider for him. Ace's gaze travels over my body, and a small, deliberate grin forms on his face. “You look…nice.”

He’s aware of what’s underneath my shirt, and I clear my throat, swallowing. “Hmm?” I close the door behind me. I turn to find him observing me, his thoughtful eyes never leaving mine.

Wrapping his muscular arm around my waist, he brings me to his chest. “I said, you look nice.”

I take a moment to regain my voice, so he doesn’t realize what he’s doing to me. “Nice?” I raise my eyebrows.

He braces his other hand on the door behind me and brings his lips centimeters from mine. “Calla, you look fucking perfect.”

Heat sweeps my cheeks. So much for regaining my voice. Ace chuckles and pulls away when I’m unable to speak. He shoves his hands in his pockets and glances around the small living space, absorbing it.
