The way he looked at me made me feel as if I knew him my whole life. It was just so easy. I walked away from Percy.

"Where are you going, Julie?" He asked me.

"Umm.. I need some fresh air" I lied.

"Want me to come with you?" He asked.

"Um no, I'll just go,  I gotta piss first" I lied again knowing how unbelievable I sound but honestly I didn't care.

I worked my way through the crowd and bumped into everyone I past.

Wow, very graceful Julie

The pain from the bruises were still fresh so I frowned a little as the pain increased.

I was half way up the steps and the pain just wouldn't go away so I stopped for a moment and rest.

I tried to make the pain of my ribs, knees, and headache subside.

I was about to keep going so that I may see the mystery boy but it just hurt too much.

Unexpectedly I felt a touch on my right hand.I knew it was him, I didn't even have to look, I could felt it.

"Ma'am" he said, his voice held the sweetest British accent I've ever heard and his eyes, oh his beautiful eyes. The eyes that held Autumn.

"Y-yes?" I stuttered.

"Come with me?" He asked slightly flushed.

"To where?" I said subsiding my pain. "You know...I'm not suppose to talk to strangers" I added in teasing tone as he securely guided me up the stairs.

"Well then, my name is Hunter, what is yours?" He asked flashing me the whitest smile.

"Julie" I said lifting my dress at the bottom a little and curtseying.

He laughed and kissed the back of my hand.

"Well then, now we aren't strangers"he smiled holding an arm out for me for him to lead me someplace.

His long lean fingers wrapped around mine and he led me outside.
"Where are we going?" I giggled.

"Shh love" he whispered into my ear and I shuddered as his cool air swept my ear and his hands laid on my waist as we walked further away from the party.

"Are y-"

"I swear I'm  not a serial killer leading you to your sexual pleasure based death"

I laughed knowing that was the exact question I was indeed going to ask.

He smiled a cheeky smile.
"Or am I?"

"Oh hush" I whispered still in shock by this sudden attention in was receiving .

Eventually we got to our destination. It was the Stone Greenhouse that the founders made 10 years ago.

"How did you find this place, Hunter?"

" When I was 7 I was playing tag with my cousin Benny and he bumped into this spot and I liked it so much, I guess it became my safe place." He answered as he put a strand of my short hair behind my ear and I swear I felt a sort of shock the minute he touched me.

"Why did you bring me here?" I asked barely audible, our faces so close that one rash move and our lips would meet, and honestly, I wouldn't mind.

It was moving too fast but it just felt.. right.

"Because for the ten years that I have come here twice a week, I've seen Rome, Paris, England, my home, and I am sure, without a doubt that surrounded by all of these sights....you're the most beautiful sight    I've ever known to exist." He caressed my cheek.
