Secrets

Chapter 4

George's POV

When I woke up to my alarm going off and it was morning. I couldn’t help but get excited, it was my favorite time of the day. I jumped out of bed and ran over to my computer. I quickly logged in and hacked onto her laptop web cam. I don’t think she ever realized that she left it open, but it made my mornings. I watched intently as she got undressed. She never wore a lot to bed. Usually a tank top and panties. She slowly took off her pajama top, revealing her curves and breasts. I wiped some drool away from my chin and watched intently as she pulled down her panties. God was her body perfect. After that she headed towards the shower.

I had everything timed perfectly, so that when she showered, I could get some coffee and scrambled eggs. After that I would settle in as she got herself ready for work. Once she was dressed, I quickly ran to the door of my apartment, which was right across the hall from hers, and would head out to get the paper. I timed everything perfectly so that we would run into each other.

Miranda was really a sweet girl. She was very attractive. She was so innocent. We talked every morning, since we ‘ran into’ each other in the hall way. I’ve known her dad for as long as I could remember. I got Miranda and Leena the apartment once they had both graduated. Since I own the building, I cut them a break on rent. Besides, Miranda first caught my attention when she moved in with the Calburn family, so I wanted to keep her close.

I walked out into the hallway, a little before she did. I did my best to walk slowly down the hallway, so that I would always see her.

“Oh! Good morning Mr. Anders! How are you this morning?” She smiled and it was the sweetest thing ever.

“I’m doing well this morning. And please, call me George. You should know this.” She blushed.

“Right. George. Sorry. Anyways, I need to get going or I’m going to be late. Have a good one!” She said as she ran past me and down the hall way to the stairs.

Her black hair cascaded down past her shoulders. She smelled like sweet mangos. I would always linger in the hall way for a few moments after she left, just taking in her scent. After she was gone, I took this time to get myself ready for the day, to get showered and such. Then I would make my way down to the coffee shop down the street. Miranda worked there, but since it was the only place in town to get coffee, she never thought twice about seeing me there every day. I would typically sit myself down in the corner, at a small table and pretend to read the newspaper. My eyes honestly hardly left Miranda.

She didn’t dress like other girls her age. She didn’t wear clothes that were extremely tight, or low cut. She dressed fairly modestly. But she wasn’t afraid to show a little cleavage with a v necked t-shirt. She didn’t cake on tons of makeup. Miranda kept a natural look. She wasn’t one to party or sleep around with guys. She had morals and dreams. She was confident in who she was and wasn’t afraid to be herself. I liked that about her.

After my morning coffee, is when I would typically message Miranda. She knew me better as Noah, a 27 year old who worked at a convenience store right outside of town. I always made sure that they were working at the same time, so she never went to surprise him. She was so cute when she pulled out her phone and saw that she had a message from me. Her face lit up and a little smile curled up in the corner of her mouth. While she replied, she bit her lower lip. I waited, impatiently, for her to reply. I kept my phone on silent, so that it wouldn’t give me away.

Noah: Good morning beautiful! I hope your day is as radiant as your smile!

Miranda: So far so good. How about your morning?

Noah: I can’t complain now that I’m talking with you.

I waited for what seemed to be a long time before she replied. I knew that the coffee shop was busy in the mornings. I watched her as she ran around making coffees and getting peoples orders taken. She was really good at her job. She always wore a smile on her face. I couldn’t stop myself from day dreaming about being with her. She was perfect.

Miranda: You’re such a flirt. I bet you say that to every girl.

My phone buzzed and brought me out of my day dream. I couldn’t help but feel the butterflies rise up in my stomach as I read her name. I needed to wait a few minutes between the texts now since ‘Noah’ was supposed to be at work. I casually walked up to the counter and ordered another cup of coffee. Miranda was nice enough to give me her discount. After I had settled back down in my seat, I would reply.

Noah: Only the cute ones. You should know that.

When Miranda pulled her phone out of her pocket, she rolled her eyes and smiled. I’m pretty sure I saw her blush. It was darling. The coffee shop started getting busy again, so I slipped out and made my way back home. Despite my hesitation, I needed to get some work done. Lucky for me, I worked from home. I was a computer programmer and did everything out of my apartment. Learning all the ins and outs of the computers made it so much easier to know how to hack into someone’s web cam. Before I got started, I pulled up the security cameras from the coffee shop. I watched the other screen with the coffee shop as I typed on my laptop. I still needed to get stuff done.

It was nearly lunch time before Miranda got back to me. She said the coffee shop was swarmed, which I knew. She said that she went on lunch in about half an hour so that she would get back to me then. I replied and told her that was fine. For the next half an hour, I tried to focus on my work and not on the coffee shop security cameras. I just couldn’t help myself. That was when I knew that I needed her to be with me, I just needed to come up with a plan.
