Love Capers

Chapter 1: First Meeting

The dazzling sun rays shone through the glass window, lighting up the spacious bedroom. Angie struggled to open her heavy eyelids, and opened them to a serene sky blue coloured ceiling. The surrounding walls were all painted white. She was so surprised at the unfamiliar walls that it was only a moment later that she found out that she was lying in a grand poster bed.

What was happening? She sat up immediately. Where was she? Why was she here? Questions slowly started to line up in untidy queues inside her head.

Hold on...........She remembered that she escaped from her garden last night, and as she dashed across the road, there was a car heading for her…………..She wasn't able to respond quickly and the car thus smashed into her and………..She woke up and found herself in this strange environment.

Angie flipped out of the warm blanket and jumped off the bed. "Ouch!" she gave a little shriek. There was a strong throbbing pain in her left ankle. She realized that her left ankle was bandaged, and a few scratches on her arm were covered in medication too. And, argh! She wasn't wearing her original clothes! Angie almost screamed and ran for the door. What was with that flowing white cotton dress she now wore and where were her clothes?! ‘Oh my gosh…….. what happened?’

A tall, well-built muscular figure stood at the edge of the connecting balcony and watched Angie in amusement. Apparently, she still has not acknowledged his presence. He wore a white tight t-shirt which perfectly defined his hard rock 8-pack and tight dark-washed jeans. The wind blew through his messy dark brown hair. His eyes were deep swirls of greenish blue which could entrance anyone.

"You're awake?" He said lightly in a low and alluring voice.

Angie turned around in shock, only to be shocked again. The sight of the sexy god-like-man in front of her made her feel  giddy and her insides tingly. Angie stared speechlessly at the gorgeous-est guy. Was she dreaming?  Maybe she wasn't really in a car accident after all.

She took in his deep enchanting eyes which were drawing her in, his red kissable lips and strong, prominent jaw-line.  Her eyes then roamed over his body taking in his abs, his muscular biceps  and his legs.

The guy smirked slightly as he looked at Angie's reaction and the way she was checking him out.

Angie caught sight of the smirk and immediately blushed bright red. To cover up her complete obsession with a guy whom she just met for less than a minute, Anige decided to release her lines of question that were queuing up inside her head.

"Umm... Who are you? What is this place? Why am I here? What happened to me?"

"I'm Ryan Chadwick and this is my house. Well, last night I accidentally bumped into you while I was driving, and you were unconscious, so I took you home to get examined by the doctor. There weren't any serious injuries. You just need to rest, and you should recover and be okay."

Angie's quick thinking brain was already forming a sneaky little plan. She had just escaped from her home and hasn’t decided where to stay. Although this was a completely unfamiliar place, it surprisingly made her feel very safe. She should find a way to stay here............

"Is there anyone, like your family members, that I could contact?"

Angie kept silent. Ryan asked again.

"Oh... My family?" Angie flashed her light brown eyes. Her friends have always told her that her brown eyes were so light that they were almost orange-like, hypnotizing. Angie hoped that her eyes were having the "hypnotizing" effect now. "My family... Why don't I remember anything about my family?"
