"Alex Graham," Juliet muttered as she walked to the bus stop to wait for her bus... The name kept ringing in her head for some reason and she brought out her phone...Maybe if she just saw his face then, she was about to search the name out when her bus arrived, so she decided not to till she got in the bus, but a call from Florence distracted her again... "Florence," Juliet said as she answered the call. probably her only friend... They talked on the phone till the bus stopped and she came down... A smile lingered on her face as she walked to her house... One of these days, she would visit her in the new state she was in with her husband... Her smile widened as she unlocked her front door and walked to her kitchen... Her subconsciously travelled to her lips as soon as she dropped her keys... Her heart started to beat uncontrollably in her chest, and her cheeks became flushed, her lips slightly apart... As she reminiscences that moment, the way he carries her and places her on top of the counter... The way his hand snaked around her waist to pull her closer... His lips on hers... Her entire body immediately became heated, and she gasped when her phone suddenly started to ring and startled her.... He Juliet let out a deep breath and picked up her phone that she had placed on the counter, and her eyes immediately grew wide when she saw it was Alex... "Calm down!" she immediately said to her said and took multiple steady breaths, cleared her throat, and touched her heated cheeks before she answered his call... "Hi." She heard his deep voice, and she almost cursed under her breath when a picture of him smiling at her popped up in her head.... "Juliet." He had to say her name before she finally responded.. "Hi," Juliet said in a low voice.... "How is work? Are you done for the day?" Alex asked, and juliet had to swallow before she answered... "Yes, I'm home alone now," She said and immediately gritted her teeth because of her response... The last part was not relevant, of course she wad home alone, who would she be with... She almost face palmed herself... "Have you had lunch yet?" Alex had a smile on his face as he listened to her... Only her voice was enough to put him in a good mood... "Yes, I had lunch with my coworkers... what about you?" She asked, and Alex saw an opportunity to see her... "No I haven't had lunch yet, because I was filled up thinking about someone" That was such a cheesy line that Alex gritted his teeth, but it got juliet smiling like a kid that had been handed her favorite candy.... "Can I come over?" Alex asked after a short silence between the both of them... He wanted to see her face already, instead of being coped up inside his office, going through files upon files... He had work to do, but would cover for it by working late... Seeing her seemed to matter more to him... "Sure you can come over, I should order Something you can eat for lunch," Juliet said, ended the call after... she immediately took off her jacket and rushed to her room... She took a quick shower and started to go through her closet to look for what to wear... She had to look like she didn't put in much effort but at the same time look beautiful... Juliet sighed deeply as she went through her sorry excuse of a closet... She wasn't much of a fashion person and just wore anything she picked out that she liked.... She never had anyone, she wanted to look beautiful for,maybe once in High school when she had a big crush on one of her class mates, but back then she didn't even make him notice her, she instead avoided her crush at every chance.... Now it was different... The way she felt for Alex was different. Everything was new and different to her... He was her first real boyfriend... Was he? They just kissed, but he didn't ask her to be his girlfriend... Wasn't that how it went... she sighed deeply and face palmed herself... What if he didn't consider her as his girlfriend what then... What about her feelings? But they shared such a passionate kiss... Juliet ended up ruining her own mood because of her overthinking... She didn't have the courage to ask Alex if they were in a relationship because she was afraid of his response... Juliet finally picked out a hoddy and out it on... she blow dried her hair for the second time that day and went to her living room to order some food for the both of them... She would eat hers for dinner... Her doorbell rang about thirty minutes later and she opened the door thinking it was the food but it was Alex ... He had such a bright smile on his face that she forgot that she was in a bad mood... He was so handsome and made her heart race... "You came so fast," She said and made way for him to enter her house... She closed her door and turned to look at him standing right behind her... Alex leaned closer and planted a kiss on her lips, taking her completely by surpised.... Tingles travelled through her entire body, and she held his arm and kissed him back, but he broke the kiss a bit too fast for her because she wanted more... He gave her a hug and planted another kiss on her hair... "I missed you" Alex said and Juliet smile became brighter... This couldn't be just a fling, it was something more... There was a spark between them that she couldn't explain... It was radiating around Alex... When she saw him some thing deep within her just lightened up... Maybe a part of heart... she wasn't sure...
