*Levi's P.O.V

I walked down the stairs slowly, a book rested in my open hand as  I ate a protein bar with the other. I walked into the den room. I sat on the couch and the my leg over the other and gazed at my book. I let my eyes scan over the words for about an hour before my phone rang.

I stood up and walked rather quickly into the large kitchen. I snapped my book shut and rested it on the counter. I picked up my charging phone letting the cord drop.

'Hello?' I said in a flat voice.

'Levi. Are you coming over today?' Jacks's voice flooded through the receiver.

'No. Today is my day off and I'm going to make the most of it,' I mummbled, turning, and leaning against the counter.

'Damn, alright. I wanted to see if you  wanted to hang out today,' he sounded dissapointed.

'Not today man, I just want to be by myself,' I said dully.

'Oh, uhm, okay then."

'Sorry, let's hang out maybe tomorrow?' I suggested.

'yeah, that sounds cool, then maybe I'll see you at the theater?'

'Yeah, it sounds good. I'm hanging up now.' I said before the line went dead and I clicked the bottom button to go to the home screen before turning it off.

I slipped it into the front pocket of my black skinny jeans. I went back to my room to grab my converse and pulled them on before grabbing my keys and going down the stairs again. I pulled out my phone once again to text Blake that I was leaving the house. His reply was short and telling me that he'll follow along. I slipped my phone away and left the house, locking it behind me and going to my sleek black Mercedes.

I slid into the car and slipped the seat belt on. I stuck the key I to the ignition but I didn't start the car, I just left it there as I leant back against the seat. I didn't really know where I wanted to go. Only that I didn't want to stay in the house all day. I thought of just taking a drive then maybe going for a walk. The idea appealed to me so I started the car and began the drive to a park that wasn't nearby.

I didn't want to go to a park with perfect swings and no trees around. Personally that's not even a park to me. A park should have trees everywhere with well loved and worn jungle gym.

I drove to one maybe halfway across the city on the side is a more natural kind of feeling. A small neighborhood was nearby but there were still many trees. This  litteraly was one of my favorite places to be.

When I got there I stepped out of the car and closed the door. I walked to the tree line. And stepped through it. The park was just past a light tree line. I walked toward a bench and stood next to it, glancing around. I remember that the park used to be lively and now it seemed kind of deserted. I saw a woman with light brown hair across the playground sitting on a bench reading a book. She seemed kind of tall. I wondered if she was here with someone or just by herself. I hadn't thought about it, but the park kind of seems creepy in a way when you are here by yourself.

I didn't really want to sit down, I sat all the way here and I wanted to walk around for awhile. So I did, I started to walk around, moving my hands into my pocket. It wasn't cold but I didn't know what do with my hands. I decided to pull out my ipod and plug in the headphones. I wondered if I looked like a creeper to the woman sitting on the bench. A 27 year old man in tight skinny jeans and a tank top walking around a deserted playground with music playing in his ears and nothing better to do. I almost laughed.

Something suddenly hit me in the chest then fell I leapt, back in surprise then looked down. Only to se a small girl with curled blonde hair and brown eyes. She had a from set into her features. She was sitting in the dirt with shorts and a blue t-shirt on. Her eyes were starting to water.

I instantly leant down and pulled out my earphones and smiled softly at her. 'Hey, don't cry. Are you alright?' I asked, sticking my hand out to her. She looked at my hand then at me. Her eyes dried up pretty quickly and I realized she must be the type to o cry to much.

'I'm okay,' she said softly. Her voice was calm and reserved. But she seemed young. Shouldn't it be playful and happy? Well I guess I did just run into her causing her to fall.

'I'm sorry I ran into to you,' I said just as softly. Well as softly as I could manage.

'It's ok.' She said taking my out stressed hand. I helped her stand up. I realized she was tiny.

She looked up at me, her eyes wide.

'Maddi, come on, let's go before he tries to rape you,' I heard a male voice call over causing me to look up. I saw a boy dressed in a black t-shirt with a pleather looking jacket and baggy blue jeans. He seemed irritated.

'What's rape?' Maddi asked slowly.

'I'll tell you later,' He muttered. I raised my eyebrows but didn't comment. I looked down at Maddi again.

'Again I'm sorry for knocking you over,' I told her.

'It's okay, mister.' She giggled before walking over to the boy who took her hand and threw me a glare. He turned and started to walk away. I saw him look down at Maddi with soft eyes and start speaking with her in hushed tones, no doubt in my mind that he was speaking with her about "Stranger Danger."

He probably should. My mind wandered over to how Maddi would take our encounter after she heard what her brother had to stay. The thought made me snicker slightly. I slid my earphones back into my ears and turned around, going back the way I came, which is also the opposite direction from where the siblings were heading. 

I walked back to my car, figuring I'd get bored soon and being bored is literally the most hateful feeling I have. So I got into my car and drove away from the park.
