A/N: This is my first fic, I hope you like it.
Your POV
It was a night like any other. Consisting of me finding a place to lay my head for the evening.
Passing by an alley way I noticed what looked like two men to be in some sort of a struggle. Me, being the curious cat that I am, decided I wanted a closer look. Approaching cautiously I started to hear what was being said amongst the two.
It appeared as the quite buff looking fellow was trying to rob the other gentleman on his was to his car. Before the scene could develop any further I snuk up be hind the robber, and in one swift move, I succeeded in knocking him out.
Now the guy lay there unconscious, as the man I just saved stood stands there looking at me with his mouth agape.
"How did you.....you just....wow...Thank you." He spoke, as he extended his hand. Now taking his hand in mine he said, "My name is Mike, and thank you for that." As he pointed to the rather unconscious fellow laying on the ground.
"Pleasure to meet you Mike, I'm Y/N."
"How can I ever thank you? How about I invite you over for dinner this evening?" He gazed at me with appreciative eyes. I couldn't help but feel his emotion just by looking into them. He was so thankful. I mean who knows what could of happened if I had not intervened.
Then I looked down at my self and thought I can't go anywhere looking like this. I kinda look like a bum." I don't want to turn him down though, that would be rude. Plus I haven't had a good home cooked meal in a while.
Realizing I still haven't answered Mike's question, I nodded and said, "Yes, that would be nice."
"Great!" He looked at his watch and then said, "Well, it's already 5:30pm and dinner is usually ready around 6pm. Would you like to ride with me then I can drop you off at home afterwards?"
"Sure, that sounds good." As I opened the door to get into the car I was thinking about "home" and how long it's been since I have had one.
*flashback*
It's the middle of my sophomore year. Everything is going great! I am the captain of our undefeated lacrosse team and I am dating the captain of the undefeated girls soccer team. Nothing can bring me down, or so I thought. In the middle of my second class that day the teacher's classroom phone rang. She stopped her lesson and walked over to her desk to answer it.
Upon hanging up she called me over to her desk. "Ms. Y/L/N, can you come here please?"
I got up and walked over to her. "Yes, Ms. Smith."
"You are needed in the principles office immediately. Collect your things and go see her please." She said with a stern look, but her eyes were gentle.
I furrowed my brow in confusion trying to recall if I have done anything wrong. I couldn't think of anything. Well, nothing that would land me in her office at least. I got back to my seat and stuffed everything into my backpack and headed out the door.
As I reached Principal Mitchell ' s office I take a deep breath before knocking. To my surprise my Guidance Counselor Ms. Benson answers the door. "Come in and have a seat Ms. Y/L/N." She says with a hint of sadness in her voice.
Ms. Mitchell speaks up, "I have called you here because I have some bad news. This is why Ms. Benson has joined us." She clears her throat and blinks rather rapidly a few times. "I am sorry to inform you that you mother has been in a traumatic car accident and is on her way to the hospital. Your father is on his way to pick you up."
My heart stopped. It was at this moment I knew my world would never be the same again.
When he arrived he said nothing to me. After getting into the car he said, "She didn't make it. She died in route to the hospital." His tone was cold and distant.
He never liked me, and I wouldn't expect this to change any of that. If anything this only made things worse.
*end of flashback*
A deep voice brought me out of my thoughts. "We are here."
I unbuckled my seatbelt and got out of the car. As I followed Mike into the house my stomach started to feel uneasy. He leads me into the kitchen, there I see a woman cooking. She turns to me and says, "Hello. You must be Y/N. Mike told me what you did for him. Thank you so much. My name is Clara by the way." She then engulfed me in a warm hug.
Wow I haven't felt a hug like this since my mom passed. Just like hers they were perfect in every way. She pulled me in close and held you tight enough to let you know you are loved. So I closed my eyes to relish this feeling.
We pulled apart just after a small moment and I help but utter the words "Thank You."
She flashed a genuine smile and returned to cooking."the kids are in the family room, you are welcome to join them if you'd like. It's just around that corner." She pointed in the direction with her spoon.
I made my way in the directing she had pointed out, and just as I was about to turn the corner. *Smack!* I bumped into someone causing us bother to fall to the ground. I rubbed my head and as I look up, i am met with the most stunning pair of emerald eyes I have ever seen.
