Chapter 1- The Bookstore  

---------------------------------------------

"Are you ready to checkout miss?" The cashier asked. "Yes,I am." I replied. I payed the cashier, grabbed my book and walked out the store. As I was walking out I saw a group of guys and they looked drunk. I ignored them and kept walking out of the dark enclosure to the street to walk home.

Then one of the guys stopped me. "Hey, beautiful where are you going." I kept walking but he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back.I slapped him across the face. Then all of the guys started crowding around me so I was in the middle of the circle. I couldn't get out, they had blocked me in. "Leave me alone." I snarled. One of the guys grabbed my waist.

They all started getting closer and closer. "Get away from me!" I screamed. One of the guys pinned me up against the wall. He ran his hand up and down my stomach. "Get off me!" I yelled. Then the guy slapped me and yelled "shut up!" I fell to the floor and tears welled up in my eyes. "Leave her alone!" I heard a voice say. I turned to look who it was.

It was kind of blurry but i could sort of make it out, It was a guy with no shirt on, caramel colored skin, jeans, and black hair. I thought to myself "I've never seen him around before." He came and helped me up and told me to stand over there. One of the guys was heading towards me and he grabbed him and pinned him to the wall. He started punching him and he threw him on the floor. He took the guy and banged him against the wall. The guy fell to the floor and he looked unconscious. "If you mess with her again you will have to deal with me!" The other guys were scared so they ran off.

When he finished and watched them run off he started walking towards me."He's walking towards me,what should I say what should I do! Oh here he comes!" I thought to myself. "Are you ok." He asked. "Yeah I'm fine." I replied. "My name is Taylor." He said. "We'll Taylor thank you for saving me back there." I replied. "What's your name?" He asked. "Oh sorry, my name is Alexandrea but everyone calls me Alex for short." I replied.

"He is so cute!' I thought to myself.  

As we were talking we connected instantly. We had so much in common and he had a beautiful smile.

We talked and exchanged numbers. We were walking and we finally reached my house. "Thanks for walking me home Taylor." I said. "No problem." He replied. I was about to leave but he grabbed my hand and turned me around to face him. "Would you like to go out to dinner sometime." He asked. "Sure I'd love to!" I replied.

I gave him a hug. As we were hugging i thought to myself "Wow! he is so strong and he smells so good!" I didnt want to let him go But i did. I waved goodbye and started walking to the front door. When I got into my house, I couldn't stop smiling. I went upstairs to my room and I got ready for bed. When I got in bed all I could think about was Taylor. I was so lucky he was there I don't know what would happen if he wasn't there. He saved my life.
