I had never seen someone picked up like they didn't weigh anything and strewn across a room before.

It was quite a glorious scene and my jaw and that of everyone else who wasn't thrown hung in shock.More importantly, no one has ever defended me like this before.

The man harassing me earlier was being beaten to pulp by a very massive man ,there was blood all over his knuckles and the cracks we heard each time he punched the brown haired guy was gut wrenching.

The funny part is, his minions just stood there and watched him get beat on .

"Why isn't anyone doing anything?!",I shouted .

"I'm calling 911", someone shouted from the crowd that had gathered

It seems that somehow stuck a cord for my mysterious savior, because he got up and started making his way towards me .

"That won't be necessary",he said ,in the sexiest voice i had ever heard .I was creaming my panties.

He made his way towards me and because the initial fight had been surrounded by people, I couldn't get a better look at him but now as he was fully looking at me in the dim lit bar ,I was lost for words.

"W-What,can I get g-get for you, Sir",I stuttered.

He chuckled,and I think I peeped my pants a little bit ,this was the sexiest thing I'd heard all day.

"Can I just get some water?",he asked .

"I just came to get a friend,and I saw those guys all up on you ,so i did what i had to do ",he explained.

"U-Um,I-its ,fine really ",I stammered again, embarrassing myself like always do.

"You alright mama",he said smiling

"God your gorgeous ",I thought.

"Thank you ",he responded,and then he saw my panicked face and realized that that was supposed to not come out ,it was an inner thought that I thought about this fine specimen sitting right Infront of me .I was just rambling to myself at this point. Besides ,I had already embarrassed myself enough.

"Your welcome,I guess",I responded with wide eyes and a grinning face .I probably looked like creep doing that.

i grabbed some bottled water from the fridge and offered it to him .
"So here you go Sir and can I bandage those knuckles up for you?",I offered,he basically beat someone up for me ,that was the least I could do.

"Nope,that's not necessary,I'll be heading out soon anyway",he gestured towards his friend waiting at the door for him.

"Your name ?",he asked

"Alexis,Alexis Parker",i finished

"Mine's Marcus Walter",he offered ,giving me his one thousand dollar smile again.
I moaned inwardly .

"So I'm getting ready to head out with my friend and I'm sure I'll see you again?",he asked.

"You're asking me",I pointed at myself.He nodded once , seemingly surprised as to why I would think he was talking to someone else.

I nodded too ,to answer his question because I didn't trust my mouth around him at this point.He turned around and left , meeting his friend at the entrance ,and entering the sea of people in the Streets of New York.

I found myself missing his presence which was ridiculous because I just met the man.I knew that I would definitely be reminiscing about this tall ,blue eyed , dark haired and tan skinned god of a man later on in my bed.

I sighed.

The rest of the day went smoothly afterwards,with the sounds of clinking glasses and the occasional cheer of the men if a goal was scored during a football match.

Towards the end of my shift ,Mr.Buge told me to get off early "since the start of the day wasn't too welcoming",i nearly rolled my eyes .He could have done that earlier when the fight happened.Why wait till now?.

I gave him a tight lipped smile ,picked my bag ,my phone and skidaddled out of there as fast as I could so I could get to the library and pick up some books before going home to make myself some decent dinner.I had been eating out too much these days.

The library was just across the street.It wasn't specifically a library, mainly a book store but it still had little seats placed strategically in-between shelves where you could sit and read a bit before you purchased them.

It was owned by a 40 year old tall , beautiful,olive -skinned woman,who went by Miss Alise .
I walked into the shop and the little bell on top of the door which tinged each time someone walked -in, subtlety announced my presence.

She looked up , beautiful skin , beautiful face,sharp jawline,full lips ,long lashes and a well defined nose stared back at me .
Ms.Alise has always been and is such a beautiful woman .It was actually very hard to comprehend.

I've always had a crush on her and have delusioned myself into thinking she liked me as well.

As I walked further into the shop,she got up from her place behind the counter and walked towards me ,encasing me in a short hug .I sneakily touched her soft auburn hair and got a whiff of her amazing scent.

I knew I was down bad for this woman as well ,she was too elegant,and I've always wanted to be like her but envisions we're cut short-

"Alexis, there's been a new shipment of books I had wanted you to see",she exclaimed excitedly while
pulling me towards the back rooms (store rooms).

They were in the basement of the shop and apart from her and I ,no one else was allowed down here .It made me feel special,in a certain way.

We got to the basement and she immediately brought out the books.

"Oh,look ,look",Alexis ,

"Isn't it just amazin-",She turned to tell me but caught me staring at her instead.

I cleared my throat to fill the silence . Suddenly my feet and the floor held more interest.

"Is there a problem?",She inquired,her motherly instincts instantly kicking in.

"No ,none at all ",I hurriedly said and joined her in gushing about the new books.

I ended up picking up a few with the promise of coming for some later when I had the time and rushed home .

And yes I ordered takeout again.
