The magnificent tale of Cassidy Amber Reel

I don't really like thrill rides.

Jasper Black pushed his finger softly on my lips, just inches away within a second. "Shh,"

This is the first time I've really gotten a chance to fully take in his facial features. And, just lemme tell ya, his face was enough to make it up for his behavior. He had high cheekbones, and light brown hair. There was a smug smile pulling his lips up into an amused grin, but his eyes... They almost told a story of their own. There was a deep sadness that seemed to settle in his light, stormy gray eyes. They were pretty, and slightly creased along the bottom from his smile, but they reflected a deep forelorn that i couldn't even begin to understand. 

Yet I could't look away. There was something mesmerizing abut the way he stared me in the eye... 

His phone rang, making his gaze drop down towards his pocket where his phone was vibrating from. I shook my head, trying to rise from my trance. 

"I have to take this," He said as he pressed his phone to his ear. 

"Okay,"  said quietly, waiting for his attention to turn back to me. 

"Yeah," "Okay," "is she doing any better?" "oh..." 

He hung up with a promise to "Be there as soon as i can". "Sorry about that. Where was i?" 

"Umm..." I paused, not wanting to tell him he was creepily staring at me. 

"Oh, right. I'm driving you home. Of course, now we have to make a pitstop. It won't take too long. Visiting hours are almost up anyways," He grabbed  my elbow, firmly but gently, and started guiding me to my left, into a parking lot of a pool club. 

"Um, I'm not going in there," I spoke, trying not to offend him or anything. My heart pounded. Why did i feel like he was going to eat me? 

Then I stared at the only vehicle in the entire parking lot. 

A motorcycle. 

"No," I said, stopping in my tracks. 

"What? Don't like my Harley?" He turned to me and made a mock pouty face. 

"I don't really like thrill rides, so..."

Jasper shrugged his jacket off and draped it around my shoulders, then tightened the helmet into place. 

When he pulled away, he winked. "You're going to like this one,"
