Chapter 21: The Coffee Date
Jules's pov
I stood still with my hands deep in my pockets. The air was a little chilly and I began to regret not bringing my jacket along, but it was too late to turn back around because Kai was currently jogging towards me.
After he had suggested we hang out together, I had been tongue tied at first, until a nudge from Taylor prompted me into agreeing right in that spot. It wasn't until I got back to my dorm that I began to regret not declining the offer. Although, it didn't sound that bad and Kai had been nothing but nice to me the two times we've spoken to each other, so I guessed it couldn't hurt to meet up with him.
I made sure to grab my phone and the card which Andrian had loaded with more than enough money, along with me. Back at home, instead of making use of cards like this one, we had an easier way of paying for things. As the son of a king, I almost never had to pay for anything myself, and the few times I had to pay for something, I usually just put it on my mother's tab and she'd end up clearing it out later.
Kai stopped beside me, panting a little but still managing to look extremely collected. A smile was dancing across his face and I noticed a dimple at the side of his cheek.
"Hey there." He breathed out, eyes twinkling and I shifted my weight around as I waved my hand a little while biting on my bottom lip.
"Hi." I shyly mumbled in response as I blinked up at him. His scent easily blended with the evening air and I noticed how his hair fell into his eyes softly.
"It's not all that far, we could trek, or do you prefer we don't?" He inquired and I shook my head.
"Trekking is fine." I reassured him, even though that was the complete opposite. Trekking wasn't fine in any way, only a few minutes after we started and I was breathing embarrassingly hard.
