RIELE'S POV
How the hell am I stuck in traffic on a weekend? I'm pretty sure not everyone is going to the grocery store as I currently am. Shouldn't they like be in bed?
"Hey move it!!"
A yelling behind me caught my attention, followed by the continuous blaring of a horn.
Realizing I had gotten lost in thought, I looked forward to notice the cars in front of me had moved out and I was now the one creating the traffic.
"Shit!" I muttered, stepping on the gas.
The grocery store was not so packed and I thanked God for that. Last thing I needed was a difficult time moving around. That and the fact I don't do too well with large crowds.
I busied myself with getting what I needed at home, throwing them inside the shopping basket I had picked up by the entrance.
The ringing of my phone stopped my actions. I picked it up- using my shoulder to hold it up to my ear- while I resumed shopping.
"Riele! Are you up for clubbing tonight?"
"Hello to you too Vanny" I rolled my eyes, even though I knew she couldn't see me.
"Yeah yeah whatever" she replied and repeated her earlier question.
I could stay here and argue with her on how to properly begin a call or I could just accept it. Choosing the latter, because I'd only be giving myself a headache if I started an argument with her.
I was a little skeptical of her question but I couldn't hide out in my house forever reading books and getting lost in thoughts.
'of him'.
I shut my eyes tightly at the comment from my subconscious. Definitely going to be needing this outing.
"Alright" I replied.
"Okay! We'll all meet up at the location I'm sending right now to you with the time. Bye!"
I was about to say something when I smacked right into something hard.
My phone fell down along with the basket I was holding and I made a quick move to pick it up.
A pair of hands made it down the same time mine did and I finally looked up at the something or rather someone I had ran into.
"Hi" he smiled charmingly and I stared shamelessly at his beauty and perfect dentition.
'Bad bad Riele, look away now!'
The voice in my head cautioning me didn't work till I heard him clear his throat.
I quickly looked down, picking up my stuff and hoping my red hair would cover the blush I knew was making its way to my cheeks.
Well that was embarrassing.
"Here you go" He stretched out his hand to me. Looking at it, I saw it was a box of sanitary pad and I suddenly wished there was a hole to throw myself in.
"Uh th...thank you"
Why was this man so beautiful? I never stuttered.
"You're welcome" His pearly whites were still on display and I wondered for a moment if his mouth didn't hurt from smiling so much.
I stood up awkwardly and waited for him to leave, but not all wishes are granted. I was no Cinderella
"I'm Tyler" he stretched out a hand and I shook it, nodding.
He kept looking at me expectantly and I raised a brow questioningly.
