Gwen easily forgot her troubles as she and Ally made there way through the magnificent paintings in the museum. They wandered around looking at paintings, sculptures, jewelry, Tiffany glass, and pottery while talking and laughing together, and of course getting yelled at plenty of times by the security guards about stupid stuff.
"Lets go look at the Greek and Roman sculptures." Gwen said.
"Sure."
"I'm getting a little tired," Gwen said while walking through the bright, high-ceiling room adorned with beautiful sculptures. "Lets sit down right here." They sat on a little stone bench near the right wall next to the giant window.
"Sorry to bring this up but look at that!" Ally half whispered, half exclaimed as she gestured toward a tall blond guy that had just entered the room.
"Wow." Gwen didn't mean to but she immediately imagined him coming up to her and talking to her. It was a simple thought but she felt that it was nearly impossible for a guy to like her.
There eyes both followed him around the room as his noble brow fell upon each sculpture. He looked like a sculpture himself. He had that perfect chiseled jaw line, lean body, and he even had smooth ivory skin. Beautiful. Ally and Gwen were talking amongst themselves about how he seemed like the perfect guy when Gwen snuck another glance at him. She did a complete double take. Was he looking at me? Was he looking at me?
Ally followed Gwen's gaze. "He is SO looking at you."
"Oh, goodness."
"What?"
"I think he's coming over here." Gwen's face started to turn red and she could feel goose bumps prickling her arms. "Ok, try to look cool," she whispered to Ally, but was really directed to herself.
For what seemed like an eternity, they watched as he headed their way. Slowly, step after step. Tick tock. They tried not to look up.
"Ummm, excuse me? Is anyone sitting here?" He asked.
"What?" Gwen was a little disoriented. Her minds expectation had fallen short again, but she knew no one would be able to meet those standards anyway. Whatever, she thought, I'm making a fool of myself already.
"Yea, sure," Ally luckily swooped in and saved the day, and Gwen yet again from an embarrassing situation. "No one's sitting here."
"Thanks."
He glided onto the end of the bench next to Gwen. All conversation had ceased and they sat in an awkward silence. He seemed to not notice, while Gwen and Ally were giving each other nervous glances. The dream guy was staring into space.
"Ugh, this sucks," Gwen whispered to Ally.
All of a sudden, dream guy made an agitated noise, looked at the girls, got up and left.
