I run from love always have, I thought I always would. That was till I met him. His smile, his fight to be in my life, showed me that he was- is different. He didn't buy me everything he thought I needed, he didn't buy me anything because he knew I wouldn't take it. A gift is just showing off to me. Money means nothing to me, I learned as a child that it's just heartache. It took years away of my parents love from me. Yet, who knows what love is? It wasn't the family I had, that was for sure.

Yet, He- Riker showed me what love is. I will never forget that day, I met him. I was 20, my second year of college in LA. I was getting ready for my music set like every Thursday in a little café. I started to play my first song, He walked in with his blonde hair, Blue ripped jeans, red shirt and those damn sunglasses. I would be lying if I said that I wasn't interested by him from that moment. He waits on his coffee as he watches me. I pick the next song, a song i found online. "I love the lyrics of this, unfortunately I didn't write it, I found it online. I hope you all like it, it's call 'can't get a enough of you'" I say looking around the small room as I start to play it. I look at him and he flips his hair and takes off his sunglasses. I sing the part of the song and he sings every word. By the end of the song his by my little stage. He waits till I'm done with the set. As I start to put my things away he talks to me. I was nice to him but I didn't try to be anything. Yet he came back every Thursday, same time and he tried to get me to go out with him but I wouldn't.

Till that day, i was putting my things in my car, near a year from that first Thursday, Riker had walked into my life and he had yet to walk out of it. I feel a hand turn me around and his lips on mine hard. My hands goes around his neck playing with his hair as he pins me to the car, his hips and mine skin to skin. His hand holds me to him. He pulls back. " you have one date to show me you won't leave." I tell him.
