RAGE

"Hey...Hey.. stop that!" he whispered silently before slowly removing his palm from my mouth,I blinked my eyes continuously, and he took a step forward forcing me to take a few step backwards and tilted forward so that his face was near mine since he was quite taller than I was, his dark and chilled eyes that eluded two contrasting aura of calmness and anxiety stared back at me and my heart was beating so hard I was scared it would burst out of my ribs. "was he stalking me? why did he follow me into the ladies room?, what does he want from me? is he also a pervert in addition to being a flirtatious annoying jerk?". My mind raced violently in search for an answer to the millions of questions surging in my brain. "I don't mean any harm okay.... I'll let go of you now but you have to promise me you won't scream" His deep husky voice whispered close to my ear, I felt his warm breath on my pale skin and my anxiety level spiked up to a hundred, my stomach suddenly growled loudly in the awkwardly silent bathroom as he took a step back "Oh great! as if I hadn't embarrassed myself enough today" My thoughts echoed loudly as my face heated up in embarrassment, he lets go of me and I noticed his lips curl up in a smirk before returning to the door to spy at the entrance, I wanted to just disappear into thin air at the moment but I wasn't going to let him get away with his shameful acts.

"Why are you stalking me? Are you nuts?, This is the ladies room for crying out loud?" I yelled mustering up the little courage left in me, he turns to look at me with a puzzled expression on his face.

"What do you mean stalk?" he asked curiously flashing me one of those annoying smirks I had loved to hate about him.

"Oh so you just enter every ladies room at every reunion party you go to, you pervert!!!!" I yelled at him and his smirk turned into a cold emotionless stare and he pinches the skin in between his forehead and let out a defeating sigh.

"Listen woman, first of, I'm not stalking you.... there's simply nothing to stalk here..." he fired back at me motioning his hands around me and my mouth hung wide open in the air "and lastly...I don't go to every ladies room at every reunion party, that's just very indecent of you to think like that" he finished and I felt all my anxiety evaporate into fury.

"Indecent????? look at who's talking!!! you're guarding the door to the ladies room!!" I yelled back at him loosing every bit of self control left within me, he rolls his eyes childishly at me and simply walked back to the door to continue peeking at whoever was coming.I boiled in fury but before I could launch at him, he suddenly shut the door close again, faced me and flashed me a weird look as if he had remember something.

"Oh...was it you at the hall the other time?" he quizzed uncertainty blaring in his eyes as he stared at me intensely.

"What the hell are you---" I queried angrily. I felt like strangling him at the moment.

"oh yeah ....it was you ...who couldn't take your eyes off me at the ballroom earlier....and you are here talking about stalk...how convenient!!" he chuckled returning back to the door to continue spying, I sighed in disbelief bent down to pick up my purse.

"Can you please....let me get out of here before I lose the last bit of sanity I have." I said as calmly as I could at the moment, he smirked widely and turned to me.

"what's the problem? tired of all this already?" he winked at me, flashing me a mocking smile, I was frustrated, tired and angry, what else does he want from me, to beg him like he's some god or to cling unto him like his barbie did back at the hall, No!! I wasn't going to do any of that,after everything I had being through today the last thing I was going to do was to let anyone trample over me or take advantage of me, and to think I was drooling over this guy a second ago is enough torture to my already tormented day, mustering up all the courage left in me I walked up to him and he smirked the more as my anger-driven gaze bore intensively into his cold dark eyes, we were only a step apart but still he was unfazed and that made me angrier the more

"I'd rather starve myself to death than stay in here in this place breathing the same air with you.....now listen Mr Jones.....I have lived my worst fears today and almost saw my entire life's work crumble down to ashes before my very eye which to me is the same as being suicidal, strangling you right here right now or die trying to pluck your eyes from your socket with nothing but the hook of my bra would mean nothing to me compared to what I had faced this past couple of weeks..." I pause to catch my breath watching his smirk fade away into nothing but an emotionless grin....he suddenly looked more terrifying than his attitude potrayed but if I hadn't had enough of his cockiness I would have back down at the deadly gaze he eluded " So please for the sake of both our lives, could you please let me out of here because I don't trust that either one of us would last a second more if we continue glaring daggers at each other." I concluded sounding as fierce as the fury boiling within me. he stared back at me for a while then tore his gaze away from me after, he seemed like he had given my words a replay in his head and he walked ever cautiously and gracefully to stand an inch behind me, his warm breathe fell on the side of my face as he bent down to whisper in my ear, my stomach threatened to rumble as my anxiety kicked back in.

"So this is how you confess your feelings to guys you can't help but stare at.....how heartless!" he whispers softly and took a step back afterwards, I sighed in effort of keeping my rage at bay. he was nothing but a jerk, what was I expecting? I opened the door not staring back at him afraid of what I might do if I caught a glimpse of his annoying smirk again. "keep your mouth shut out there if you treasure whatever remains of your life's work" he threatened just as I took a step out. I paused trying to place a meaning onto his words but as I found none and was suddenly to weak to reply him, I walked as fast as I could from the restroom, I don't think I could stand anymore of his gibberish any longer.
