"The fuck did you just call me?" He questions angrily garnering the attention of a few people around us.

"Oh, didn't you hear me?I called you pretty, I love your outfit by the way where'd you buy it?It looks expensive.I could never afford clothes for that type of price , I buy most of mine at charity stores and thrift shops but I do have good style if I do say so—

I stop talking when he turns around abruptly and walks off.
Okay, rude much.

"Uh, excuse me sir!" I follow behind him struggling to keep up as he eats up the ground with long strides.
"I'm so sorry for spilling my milkshake on you, would you like a napkin?"
I say hurriedly, fumbling in my pockets for one, ignoring the shooting pain in my arm.

"My name's Penelope Evangeline Myers, what's yours?"
He continues walking on ignoring me.
"You're quite rude you know" I say in a teasing voice as I carry on beside him.
He glances over at me but stays silent, and I grin when he doesn't tell me to leave.

"Can you leave me the fuck alone, you're so tiny how is it possible to be so annoying" He says in an irritated tone.
Oh, I guess I spoke to soon, and I am not tiny, he's just huge.
I ignore what he said still struggling to keep up with his tall form. "Your accent is awesome where are you from exactly."

"None of your business" he says in that cool, unbothered voice of his, he seems to have no emotion other than his previous anger which has now been replaced by a cold, unfeeling tone.

I'm out of breath slightly when we stop in front of a dark building that looks like some sort of restaurant.Me and exercise do not go together but as he pushes open the door I eagerly step forward to follow him inside.Instead of letting me pass he blocks the entrance, making me frown.I tilt my head up to meet his eyes with my own.

"Hey, you're in the way"I say with furrowed brows as I move to get past him.He just raises a brow at me and says in a stern voice "leave."

"Why?" I ask still confused.
"Because, I'm not going to let a complete fucking stranger into where I work."

"But we're not strangers you know my full nam—
I'm interrupted by the door being shut in my face and sadly watch through the glass door as he turns and walks away.

Oh, well I'll just wait here for him to come back.

I turn my back towards the door and slide down until I'm sitting on the step below.The previous sun has diminished leaving a cold chill in the air and I hug my arms around myself trying to ward away the cold, but still end up shivering anyway.

There seems to be no one around as we're in a pretty secluded area, which I'm thankful for.I wince when I lift my arm up my wrist is throbbing, it's fine I've endured worse.

As I stare up at the sky I can't help but imagine the striking similarity to his eyes, I still don't know his name but I will figure it out no matter how stubborn he is, the thought makes me smile to myself.

Slowly my eyelids begin to droop as I huddle against the door.And the last thing I think is I'm sure he'll come back soon, I don't want to be alone anymore.
