"My legs hurt like shit! Urghh!" Alexis grunted. This date is so retarded, my legs hurt and I'm so sweaty. Disgusting. Alexis picked up a towel offered by the gym. She wiped the sweat on her face then proceeded to roll up her jeans and clean her slender legs that were glistening with sweat. she was constantly cursing under her breath, this was definitely not the best date in her life. Correction, it is the worst.
Cameron walked towards her and passed her a bottle of ice water. Alexis snatched it from his grasp and begin gulping down the ice cold liquid. " I'm usually soooo much more ladylike." Alexis defended after hearing Cameron's chuckles.
"Its already 12 am, it's really late. I think we should get going." Cameron said while reaching out for Alexis's hand.
Cameron grabbed Alexis's hand and intertwined their fingers. Alexis felt a feeling of deja vu. The night where they spent in Cameron's house with him dead drunk. Alexis looked away from Cameron and focused on getting in the BMW. When her eyes laid on the BMW she was shocked at what had saw. Cameron's car is completely covered in snow. Even the screens of the car cannot be seen. Alexis lifted her head to take a look at the surroundings, that was when she realized that the whole city was being blanketed with a thick sheet of white snow.
The snow was now lying all over the city like an igloo.
Alexis's previous frown twisted into a huge smile. She looked at Cameron with a grin. Alexis loved snow since she was young. She used to play them and enjoyed being snowed on. "This is absolutely magical! Woww..." Alexis muttered, her cheeks were sore from the wide smile that broke out from her lips. Alexis felt Cameron's hand trembling under her grasp, was he cold? No, he was laughing, his silverfish blond hair falling down on his face. "Your mood swings missy, are so out of control. One second you are cursing at me and the next you are smiling so widely your face looks like it's gonna crack."
"Don't talk so much and get in the car. And stop raining on my parade, Mister." Alexis made sure to emphasise the word "Mister".
Cameron's lips broke into a smirk," I think your parade's pretty drenched already." Cameron points at the blotches of ice that had melted on Alexis's T-shirt creating wet patches of water. He winked at her then hopped into the car. She flung open the door and stepped in it, still glaring at the Mister bastard.

"A snowstorm is coming here to Los Angeles. The weather is not advisable for people to be driving on the road or being outside without a shelter for that matter. We want all of you to stay indoors as soon as possible." Alexis reached out from the leather seat to hear what the DJ was saying.
She slumped back into her seat after hearing what was said. She took out her iPhone 6 plus and began typing furiously on it.
"The snow is a bitch. Like seriously I can't see a motherfking thing with this bloody weather." Cameron let out a string of curses as her drive in the bad weather. His car pulled to a stop.
"Cameron, I think you should stop in front. Did you see the lights there ? I thought we should stop there." Alexis said with her eyes glued to her phone.
"Yesss! Okay, Cameron you drive about 500m from here and stop there. The source of the lights is a little family hostel. We should be able to settle there and then travel back home tomorrow." Alexus said while nodding her head profusely.
She turned to look at Cameron.
The second their eyes met it was like a burst of fireworks. Alexis saw something flash across his pair of sea blue irises. The way Cameron was looking at her now was feeled with warmth and ... like?
The snow was whipping against the car windows so hard, that the shattered sounds of unrest overpowered the DJ's voice that was blabbering on and on about the weather. The raven black heaven was now filled with the white snow, swirling in a sort of a dance around the city. It looked like a beautiful angel or a ballerina dressed in a white leotard, dancing in the night.
The snow beat down on the metal roof of the car, as Alexis and Cameron eyes were transfixed on each other's eyes. There was something that created a romantic ambience, with the comforting rhythm of the snow. The intensity of the pair of sea blue eyes that were trailing her body's every move.
She looked away from those intense blue eyes. Her eyes fell on the window and she muttered a soft, "let's go." She felt Cameron's eyes shifted away from her and rested on the road. Sh we heaved a sigh and relieve and continued to read about the small little hostel that,they would be cramming in for the night.

Cameron finally pressed the brake to stop the car. The car screeched to a halt . Cameron and Alexis got out of the car, as the strong wind engulfed them both. Alexis used her arms to wrap around her stomach as the cold wind blew against her abdomen. Her teeth started trembling due to the wind.
Cameron saw that Alexis was freezing and pulled her into his warm embrace. His arms wrapped around any surface of her skin that came in contact with the cold wind. His arms draped around her shoulders, as he slowly escorting her towards the hostel.
They stepped into the small doorway and immediately was greeted with loud chattering and people pushing here and there. The hostel was packed like sardines. All kinds of travelers forcing their way to the counter.
Alexis was sandwitched between a middle aged man and an African American teenage boy. The teenage boy winked and Alexis and etched closer towards her.
Alexis moved another side avoiding the teenage boy and that was when found herself almost pressed against the middle aged man that was standing beside her previously. "You are so gorgeous, babe." His hands reached out to caress her cheeks. His fingertips we're almost touching her cheeks when a familiar tanned hands reached out from the corner of her eyes and grabbed the middle aged man.
"Keep your hands to yourself. Although I know it's hard to, when it comes to my shortcake here. The struggle is real." Cameron yanked the middle aged man's hands away from Alexis and said," but we all know princesses belongs to their prince. And Imma that prince that gets to lay my hands on the princess, not you."
He grabbed Alexis's shoulders and slammed her back against his chest. "Don't worry shortcake, I'll protect you from the blasted molesters." Cameron hands slide down from her shoulders to her waist. His grip was very tight,on her but not the uncomfortable manner.
She turned her head sideways and whispered into his ears, " then I think you should protect me from you."
She could feel Cameron's well toned chest trembling against her back. He erupted into laughter, his head thrown back and a playful smile dancing on his magenta lips.
When he stopped laughing, his eyes were focused on Alexis's grey ones.
"Why ask ur guardian angel to protect you from your guardian angel ? "
His lips curled into a even wider smile and this time his hands released from her waist and reached far enough that their fingers touched. So lightly that she would probably hardly have been aware of it had she been touching anyone but Cameron; as it was, the nerve endings in her fingertips prickled softly, as if she were holding them over a low flame.
With both their hands intertwined tightly with each other, they proceeded towards the counter...
