I walked in and took my seat.
" Was this anonymous?" She asked.
I didn't know what to say exactly so i just told her.
" Well she gave me a list of 3 people and you were the only one i knew so i just said your name and she led me back here. As you may know i'm failing math..."
" Let's get started than."
we sat down and went over the basics. well, more like basic for her, not so much for me. when study hall was over, i was confused
but still knew more than i did before i came here. Last period was the only one i didn't have with Hazel. I took my seat and listened to the teacher for once.
I guess i was feeling empowered to do good, so i actually listened.
After school i went back to study hall to see if she was still there. When i walked into the room i saw her perfect ombre hair.
She turned around and looked at me, " Oh hey Hazel.... i was wondering if maybe you wanted to go get some coffe and we can study and stuff."

( Hazel POV)
I stood and looked at him, not knowing what to say. Was he asking me on a date? or.................. not.
" Let me check my calendar really quick."
Hazel what is wrong with you!!!! my head was spinning so i reached down in my bag and pulled out my phone. I already knew that i was free
today i so i flicked to my camera, being secretive about it.
I looked at myself in the camera and my jaw dropped. My hair was a disaster, my face was so pale, and i looked very sleep deprived. I could
feel Luke's stare on me so i clicked off my phone and reached down to unlatch my bag. i couldn't get the latch off, and it
felt really embarassing. I felt Luke's hand move my hair from my face behind my ears.
I felt his strong hand on my face and that's when i noticed how muscular he really was.

( Luke POV)
it felt like I literally had her life in my hands. i never noticed how fragile and small she really was. She was so beautiful, but there was
an empty look in her eyes.
" Yah i'm free." she said.
I took my hand off her face, but never tore my gaze.
" Um great how bout i pick you up?" i replyed. I got and instant reply.
" NO!" she said, the most fear iv'e ever seen in her eyes before.
" Luke i'm sorry, but i think i'll just drive myself. The one on the West by the gas station... right?"
" uh yah. how bout 4?" i said in a shaky voice.
" perfect. See yah then."
She walked away and I pulled out my phone and called my dad.
" hey dad is Luke, can you pick me up 20 minutes later please? I have to do something in the library."
" sure luke, see yah than."
I ran to the library with my fingers crossed that everything was were it used to be. last year i worked in the library, and i know where everything is.
I walked over to the keyboard and lifted it up, my heart racing.
yes.
The password was still there.
i typed it in the bar at the top, and typed in Hazels name. I typed in her book ID number and got her checked out books.
In the right left was her name, number, and adress. i grabbed a piece of paper and wrote down her adress. I went outside and waited for about 5
more minutes. My dad pulled up in my car and got out.
" Hey son, i got the engine all fixed up! It's yours again."
" Thanks dad. Hey.. is it okay if i go on a study coffee date with a friend?"
" What time"
" 4" i replyed.
" Okay.... but on't stay out to late. I want your mother to have dinner with us."
I got behind the wheel and drove home. I wanted to leave 30 minutes early so i hopped in for a quick shower and got changed quick. I got in the car
and typed in the adress to my GPS. i drove onto a back road and crept along a dark musty looking road. I pulled up to an old, crumbled house.
My heart was racing so fast as a crept up to the porch. The door was ajar, so i knocked.
" Hazel?" I chocked out, and pushed the door opened. I when up some dark stairs and went into a room. It felt so weird to just walk into
someones house.... but i was on adrenaline. i Pushed open a door in the room that i guessed was a bathroom. I saw the back of Hazel, naked.
She turned around fast and screamed, which made me freak out and i ran out of the bathroom. She was in there for about
6 more minutes, and i just stood by the door.
She came out, looking so beautiful i couldn't describe it in words. She walked up to me, her perfect blue eyes never leaving mine.
She just stared at me for a while, and i felt a sting on my cheek. She slapped me in the face.
" WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING LUKE!"
" I'm so sorry Hazel, i was worried... you seemed so scared about me coming to your house!"
"The reason is number 1 i live in a shit hole, and number 2 if anybody found out i lived alone at this age without being emancipated, i would be put into the system.
when my dad died my aunt kept it a secret so the government wouldn't put me with anybody else in my family or with a foster home. So iv'e lived alone."
" Hazel i'm so sorry."
" You already saw me naked before our first official date.......... damn you."
I smirked and i saw a little smile from her.
" How bout this, instead of coffee lets just stay here. How bout that?"
Hazel nodded and we sat on her bed and flicked on the TV.
Next thing i knew i woke up with Hazel laying on my chest, at 7:30 in the morning.
