Being the clumsy idiot that I am I had to crash into someone because of being so focused on getting out, I instead ran straight to what felt like a wall, 

"I told you to watch out that's on you" Liz lifts her hands up in in the I-Told-You-So way she always does whenever she's right (which rarely happens except in school ) I look up rubbing my head, and see a Tall man with broad shoulders stood in a red coat uniform,

" Pardon me madam" He spoke in an English accent, and then offered his hand to help me up which I then took. Once I was up at his level (or at least as close as I could get since he was at least a good half foot taller than me)  I saw his golden hair glimmer upon his dazzling sea blue eyes which together looked like the sun illuminating the ocean after a storm, so it goes without saying that  I melted into a puddle of goo after hearing his politeness,

"All my fault, all my fault I am so sorry I wasn't looking oh my gosh you think I'm stupid don't you it's fine if you do cause good looking guys tend to think that-realizing that I was babbling Liz tries to shush me- Wow i think I hit my head a lot harder than I thought what are you made of? Rocks?"

 Liz covers my mouth with her hand,

" I am sorry she has always had a very low tolerance with head injuries sometimes a little slap does the trick just give me a moment" Liz smacks me across the face,

 " The hell? I was only speaking the truth I have freedom of peach, I mean speech" Liz sighs,

" This is the England that America fought really hard to get away from, I think its for a reason you don't have freedom of peach here." A small panicked look flickered on my face for a second,

" Are you making fun of me? 'cause we don't have time for that"Liz shakes her head in the direction of the hot guy , we turn to face him," sorry, um whats you r name ?" Liz inquires he smiles,

" No apology needed, and I am Officer Nathan Robert Dudson what about you two? " I open my mouth first, 

" I'm Claire just Claire " Nathan bows, I then did a delayed curtsy  that got jacked up by me falling into his arms he then helped me retain my balance and looked into his eyes deeply and he into mine. Liz interjected,

 " I am Elizabeth Ann Southwark" She did a perfect curtsy (It's because she had ballet classes and shit). 

" Pleasure to meet you both, and I'm sorry but did you happen to say your surname was?" Nathan turns to Liz ,

" Oh Southwark, Elizabeth Southwark I know it's a weird name but it's my dad's - Nathan then interrupted -

 " A Southwark?! Oh As in Aaron Parker Southwark?" Liz Chuckles nervously,

" Yeah that's my dad's name, um you excuse us for just a second? Thank you " We turn Liz whispers,

" Uh Claire? That is my dad'a name, but It's a family name if I was born a dude that would've been my name my dad was named after his dad and his before that it's a tradition that's been around for like ever! That means he know my ancestor I am freaking out!"

 I shush her," Stop whisper yelling I mean it the guy is right there, just be cool" I gesture to Nathan behind me. We turn back facing Nathan , he breaks the silence,
