Level Me Up

Level Me UpTitle: Level Me UpSeries: Gamer Boy #1Genre: ,
A must-read, love at first sight, first love, girl next door romance. 
MORGAN
I was exploring the world,
Finding myself,
Figuring things out.
The last thing I expected was to find him,
A drop-dead sexy gamer,
Who was ready for a challenge.
The problem is,
I was no match for him.
DEX
She is everything I wasn't looking for,
And now, I can't imagine one second without her.
But as a professional gamer,
I travel the country,
Coming and going on a whim,
To play the game,
Striving for victory.
This time, it's not about the win.
It's about Leveling Up,
With her,
And only her,
Forever.

EXCERPT:

Why the heck do I feel like I’m about to do something utterly stupid, like that split second before you realize you’ve missed the step and are about to fall down the stairs?

“Hi,” he says in this perfectly male, deep voice. “How are you ladies today?”

I distantly hear Ruby reply, “Well, we’re just fine. Thank you for asking.”

And she nudges me as I realize that while he asked both of us that question, he is only looking at me, and I’m not moving or saying anything. Apparently, I'm a freaking mute.

Why can't I form words? Get it together, Morgan!

"Hi," he says again, but to only me this time.

And just like that, I snap myself out of it, slap on a smile, and reply, "Hi," as I reach out and offer my hand like it’s some formal introduction. Again, I ask myself, what is wrong with me?

With a smile that reaches his eyes, he grasps my hand in his as I say, "I'm Morgan, and I have no idea what a positive K/D is."

I hear Ruby stifle a laugh beside me. I'm never going to live this down. Somebody should just shoot me now. But to my surprise, Dex doesn't laugh at me. He is still smiling at me and says, “Hi Morgan, I'm Dex. And don't worry about it, this guy sitting next to me," he jerks his head to his right, "doesn’t know what a positive K/D is either, but at least you're honest."

I quickly glance to his right and see a guy with short blond hair turn toward him glaring, but then turn toward us, smile, and says, "He doesn't know what he's talking about."

I slide my eyes back to Dex and realize he is still holding my hand even though the handshake stopped a minute ago. I quickly drop my hand and smile as a big bouncer-type guy comes up to us and says, "Sorry ladies, you’re holding up the line. Keep moving."

Ruby apologizes, and I apologize to Dex because I'm still staring at him. But we move along, and now the gamer to Dex’s right, Simon "SezSimon" Palmer, is signing the shirt.

Dex looks back at me as he finishes signing a poster and says, "it was nice meeting you, Morgan," with a warm smile. I can only manage a smile and nod as Ruby finishes getting the last signature.

Then we finish and get out of the line. We walk a little bit before Ruby stops, grabs my arm, and doubles over with laughter.
