Chapter 1:
"Beep, beep, beep, beep..."
I roll over and hit the snooze button. I probably have at least five minutes until my mom comes down and wakes me up. Usually I set an alarm so I'm up before she comes down. I tell her repeativley that she doesn't need to wake me up. But I guess its a good thing she does or I would be late everyday.
The sounds of feet going down the steps indicates my moms coming. I spring out of bed and quickly run to the bathroom. I like to make my mom think I've been up for along time. When in reality I just woke up about two minutes ago.
"Alexis are you up?" I hear my mom yell from the other room. "I'm in the bathroom". "Ok hurry up you have to take care of the horses before you leave".
I have two horses. My baby, Sunny, is a black and white Appaloosa. I love her to death. Then my mom has a horse named Henry. He's a giant bay colored horse. He's also a little devil. He often escapes the pasture some how and runs away.
After I showered I got dressed in light blue ripped skinny jeans with a loose black cross country shirt that says "Just run... Easier said then done". I grab my black lace converse high tops and put on my bright yellow rubber boots. As I walk pass my blue Chevy impala I throw my shoes in and walked down to the pasture.
I had forty minutes until I had to get to school. So I quickly fed the horses and got in my car. It took me fifteen minutes to get to the school and I had twenty minutes till the bell. Arriving at the school with exactly five minutes to spare I ran into the building and ran smack dab into someone knocking the wind out of me.
I just laid on the ground in pain not caring if I was late anymore. "Get off your lazy but loser". Turns out I ran into my best friend Sarah. I looked up at her and grabbed her awaiting hand and she pulled me up. My butt will defiantly be bruised tomorrow. "Lets go Alexis we're already late. Great way to end my senior year, another tardy.
We got into our first class, literature. Everyone was goofing off and the teacher didn't even notice our tardiness. Me and Sarah sat down at our desks in the back.
"I can't believe its our last day. Most of these idiots we'll never see again". She did have a point. Most of our senior class were complete idiots but I will miss them. We continued talking about all the memories we had in high school . I'll admit it made me a little tears eyed. The rest of the day went by similar to that. Talking to friends that I probably won't see again. None of the teachers made us do anything. Eventually the final bell rang and I made my way to my car. Cries and sad goodbyes filled the hallways and I hightailed it out of there.
I didn't want to cry right now. Graduation was bad enough. I jumped in my car and made my way to McDonald's. It's only about twenty minutes away and I was starving, as usual.
I decided to order inside because the drive through line was so long. On my way in I noticed someone sitting on the curb in front of the restaurant. They had their head in their hands and their shoulders were shaking. Which could only mean that they were crying. I could tell it was a boy from the clothes but it broke my heart to see the boy like that.
Sad and helpless all alone sitting on a curb. I sat down next to him and was silent for a moment. I could tell he hadn't noticed I sat down so I spoke up. "Umm hi, are you okay". The boy seemed startled at first and looked up at me. I couldn't get a good look at him because he had his hood up with sunglasses on.
"Hi, I'm fine". His accent surprised me, I think it was Irish or something. I could tell he was lying. "Why are you crying. You can tell me". I gave him a reassuring smile and he looked in thought for a moment.
"Well everything has gone wrong, I ran away from my problems I thought that's what I should do, ya know. Everything was going fine until aman stole all of my money and credit card. Now I can't even afford food". he told me all of this in a rush. He looked as if he were about to cry so I put my arm around him. He tensed up at first but soon relaxed. "Well why don't you come eat lunch with me", I offered with a warm smile. "Really you wouldn't mind". "Defiantly not". He finally smiled and I think my heart skipped a beat. He had a beautiful smile.
I grabbed his hand and dragged him inside. You can't blame me I was starving. We stood in line until we got to the counter. I ordered a number fifteen large with a diet coke. He looked unsure and all he ordered was a double cheeses burger with medium fries. I knew he was hungry so I ordered Five double cheeseburgers two large fries and a large coke.
I swear the smile he gave me was as big as the sun. He leaned in and whispered thank you in my ear. It gave me chills. I payed and we waited for the food. when it finally came I realized I ordered so much food. We walked over to a bench table and sat down. "You can eat whatever you want, and by the way my name is Alexis". "Thank you so much Alexis and my names Niall". We began eating in silence until all the food was completely gone. I guess we both were really hungry.
A thoughts popped into my mind. Where was Niall staying. He said he ran away. Then another crazier thought popped into my mind. "Niall do you have somewhere to stay". He frowned and looked down in shame. "No I don't". "Well you're in luck, you can stay with me". He looked up with a smile plastered on his face. "Are you sure, will you parents mind". "Yes I'm sure, and my parents would defiantly not allow this but who cares we will just keep it a secret".
"You would do that for me?" "Of course I would". "But you don't even know me, what if I was a murderer or something. "Well if I'm dead by morning I'll know my mistake". I said with a wink. He laughed the most beautiful laugh and got up to throw the garbage away.
He came back and we got in my car and I made my journey back to my house.
Niall's POV:
I can't believe this girl. She doesn't even know me yet she trusts me and shows kindness. She is also so beautiful. With blond hair cut just above her shoulders and bright blue eyes.
We were in the car for only about fifth teen or so minutes. She pulled into a very long driveway and eventually we came upon a house. The house was quite big and I noticed a barn in the distance.
"What about your parents"I asked for the second time this day.
"Well right now they are at work until eight because they work at this big law firm, but since it's Friday it's there date night" Alexis said.
She parked the car and said to me with a big grin "Its time to show you your new temporary home".
