Chapter 2. April 2006 Her beautiful green eyes searched mine from across the dance floor, I smiled and she mirrored me with her perfect smile. "I'm Bethany by the way," the 20 year old woman replied after I had asked to use her lighter. It was cold at 1.00am in April and Bethany was shivering. "here you are, my name is Jamie by the way" I said as I put my coat around her shoulders. She smiled at me, blushing she turned away from me. "Your very pretty," I choked as the smoke went down my throat. "Do you even smoke?" she asked, catching on that I was only outside with her to talk to her. Confessing I said "Nope but I couldn't let you come out here on your own, plus who would have given you a coat whilst your out here." "Good point," Bethany laughed. I couldn't believe the goosebumps I got from hearing her voice and seeing her smile, never mind the fact that I felt like I was going to burst. That night I bought Bethany a few more drinks and we flirted in between catching glimpses at each other. As Bethany's friends called her over, she slipped a piece of paper into my pocket and winked at me.
4 days later we met again, she told me how her friends told her to shut up about me, just some guy that would find someone to take home with him. I smiled at her and couldn't help myself fall into a dreamy state of mind, for her voice put a spell on me. "So what do you want to do?" Bethany asked "Shall we go watch a movie, I know there is a great film on at the moment." I replied. At that we stood up and walked along to the cinema, I couldn't take my eyes off her, everything about her felt right, I felt like I was falling for her already although I didn't think that was possible. We sat watching the film, I put my arm around me and she put her hand on my leg, this first touch sent sparks through my body and she looked at me as though she felt it too. "Wow," Bethany whispered at me. "I know I can't believe that bloke just through him right over a bus," I replied quietly. "Not that, the buzz I just got from that touch." Bethany corrected me, I smiled at her and held her close as we watched the film. Bethany worked as a sales advisor for a phone company while studying law at a local university. The 20 year old brown haired, green eyed beauty came from a poor family, who did not have the money to bring her up properly, Bethany was taken into care at 14 and made her life's path by herself although I asked myself why does she fancy me, I am only a 21 year old guy with a dead end job and a flat that was the original single guys flat, I put it down to pure luck or pure craziness. The first time Bethany came to my flat I made sure there were no mouldy plates or bowls on the floor, no lads magazines and it smelt like a human flat. 3 hours later bethany stood in my hallway commenting on the smell of burning. "Oh crap, thats our dinner." I cried as I shot to rescue the chicken risotto. Bethany lent up against the side laughing, she had such a sweet laugh, I looked at her and started laughing, I took her hand and escorted her to the living room, where I gave her a glass of wine whilst I finished what remained of the dinner. Sat at the table with our dinner I apologised for the poor excuse for dinner. "Its fine, it's lovely, never known a man to cook like you do," she replied. "Thanks, so how is law going, how comes you wanted to study law?" I asked as she gazed into my eyes. "Well my biological dad was a policeman before he retired and I had always seen articles about him in the paper and on the TV, he just inspired me really." Bethany told me. We spoke for a good hour after dinner before Beth got tired and snuggled up to me. It was perfect, I watched her as she slept with her arm around my waist and her head on my chest, watching her lips move as she dreamt. I thought to myself "I'm in love." I picked her up and took her to bed, where I tucked her in and stroked her hair. I couldn't believe I was in love and that someone loved me back. I had always been the guy at school who didn't really fit into any sort of group, with my brown hair, brown eyes and not much of a big personality,I wasn't one who got picked on or picked to be in any sort of friendship group. As I got older and I started growing facial hair, I noticed I looked better with stubble but some people said I looked messy but I hated looking babyish with no beard at all. I was never one with the girls which is why I didn't know why a girl of her beauty and personality would fall for someone like me. The next morning when I woke up she was smiling at me, I smiled back and stretched. "your so sweet when you sleep." Beth told me. "So I'm not when I'm awake," I joked, Beth looked lost so I tickled her, nearly rolling of the bed I held her close, she looked up at me with a look in her eye that showed me she had just realised something wonderful. "it sounds to soon, but I'm falling in love with you." Beth told me. "I'm falling for you as well," I replied. We lay there looking at each other for a minute before she kissed me for the first time. Her lips against mine felt like a million fireworks going off, at that moment I sat her up and took her top off, she giggled nervously and fell onto the bed, giving herself to me. Wrapped in pure ecstasy we lay on the bed looking up at the ceiling smiling. That first time we made love made me feel so connected to her.
