Paige's POV
Another wonderful day at work can always make a girl happy.
"Hey Paige, are you heading out?"
Asks my secretary and best friend, Nicole."Yeah I'm getting pretty tired." I grab my purse and my keys. "What time are you gonna head home?" I asks.
"Uhh." She looks at her watch "I'll be out of here at around 11:00. I have a lot of paperwork to fill out." She says motioning towards the stack of papers on her desk.
"Okay. I'll see you tomorrow. Goodnight." I say smiling sweetly at her.
"Bye, Casper." She smiles calling me by the nickname she gave me when we were younger.
"Fuck you." I giggle then head towards the elevator.

I'm driving down the road and I'm jamming out to A Day To Remember.
When I'm going in to sing the next line, I look ahead over to the side of the road and see a lump."What the hell is that?" I ask myself. I squint harder and harder until I finally see what it is.
It's a body!
"Oh my gosh!" I yell and I quickly press on the breaks to stop the car.
I cautiously get out of the car and slowly walk over to the body.
"Hello?" I say shivering with fear. "Hello? Can you hear me?" I carefully kneel down by the mysterious body.
I close enough to see that it's a man. I hesitantly flip the body over and gasp as I see that he's all bloody and his clothes are ripped.
I check for a pulse.
Oh my gosh he's alive!
Now what do I do?"Uhh c'mon paige...think think think..." I brainstorm for a bit until I finally got an idea.
I grabbed the unknown man by both of his arms and started to drag him to my car.
I grunt while dragging him because of how heavy he was.
When I finally reach the car, I open the door and lay him down carefully in the backseat and shut the door.
I race over to the other side of the car and hop in the front seat.
Did I really just pick up a stranger off the side of the road?
3 hours later
I am watching Spongebob in the living room. I've already changed into some sweats and a crop top. I'm eating a bowl of captain crunch because I always eat cereal before I go to bed. Now I just wait until the man wakes up.
I finish my cereal and make my way over to the sink to wash my dish.
I turn on the water and start cleaning out my bowl when all of a sudden he moves.
I start to panic and immediately shut off the water and slowly walk over to him.
He starts to move around more and he groans as he finally wakes up.His eyes flutter open as he groans I'm guessing in pain. As he tried to sit up, he quickly grabs his stomach and winces in pain.
"Be careful." I say as I walk over to him and assist him.
He flinches hard. I'm guessing he didn't see me standing there. "Who the hell are you?" He looks around. "Where am I?!" He demands.
"Uh hi... I'm Paige." I say as I reach my hand out to greet him.
"Do I even know you?" He asks rudely ignoring my polite greeting.
I embarrassingly put my hand back down "Uhm no...I found you laying on the side of the highway unconscious, do you remember what happened to you?" I ask him.
"I gotta get outta here." As he tried to get up from the couch, he winces again and grabs his stomach. He sits back down.
"That's probably the bandages." I walk over to him and is about to lift up his shirt but he slaps my hand away.
"Whoa! What are you doing? I barely know you." He says
"Relax. I'm just gonna change the bandage on your stomach." I say.
I slowly lift up his shirt to make sure I don't hurt him.Wow...his body looks hot!
"So...Are you gonna tell me your name?" I asks breaking the silence.
"Ambrose..." He says sternly
"Ambrose? That sound like a last name." I say as I put Neosporin on his wounds.
"That's because it is. I don't like my first name so I go by Ambrose." he says as u can tell he's getting annoyed.
"Well can you tell me your real na-"
He cuts me off "Look I'm not here to make small talk okay? Just hurry up so I can leave?!" He yells getting impatient.
I flinch at him raising his voice but I stand my ground. "That was rude." I say as I stop and cross my arms.
"You know what? I don't have time for this. I'm outta here." He says as he shoves my hand away and get up from the couch.
"You can't leave. You're seriously hurt! You have to stay here." I tell him.
"Why are you so worried? You don't even know me!" He says.
"Fine! You can leave! But just think about the people who beat you Into a bloody pulp and left you there. What do you think is gonna stop them from doing it again?" I say.
He sighs and walks back over to the couch.
"Fine I'll stay." He says as a small smile creeps up in my face.
