It has now been 10 hours in the car, and I haven't heard from Derek. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

What if...no! Daisy stop worrying! Everything will be fine.

I have roughly 20 minutes left of my journey until I make it to my apartment. It was finally happening. I was here in LA, and everything is off to a great start.

5 Panic! at the Disco songs later, and here I am! Home sweet home I guess.

I found a parking space and grabbed my bag from my trunk, struggling to carry it considering it had to be at least twice my body weight.

It also didn't help that I wasn't the average weight that a 5'6, 21 year old girl should be....

As soon as I walked into the lobby, I was greeted with the warm scent of cinnamon and vanilla. I walked up to the front desk to see a man, in about his mid 20's with the name 'Patrick' sewn into his shirt

"And what can I do for you gorgeous?" And here we go again.

When I finally got my point across that I wasn't interested, Patrick told me to take the elevator to the 3rd floor and find room 463.

I made it to the 3rd floor, and started walking down the hall when I tripped, over my OWN foot, and dropped my bag and face planted into the floor.

For a normal person, you wouldn't expect it to hurt that much. But considering I was literally covered in cuts and bruises the size of Derek's hands, it hurt. Like a lot.

So I just kinda layed there for a minute. Not sure why, but I did. That's when I heard a deep, yet sweet voice

ask me something in a worried tone

"Woah are you okay?" The man said. I didn't bother to look up. I didn't want him to see me blushing from my embarrassment. "Yeah. I'm fine." I replied. Still Laying on the floor for some unknown reason. I'm strange.

"Well here. Let me help you" I heard the voice say before I felt something take my wrist causing me to flinch. He then started to slowly lift me up, and when I was half way up, I lost my balance.

The strange man quickly grabbed my arm to steady me, causing me to let out a yelp from the sudden pressure being applied to my newest addition to my collection of bruises that Derek had given to me last night.

"Hey are you okay? I didn't mean to hurt you!" The voice said, even more worried than before.

And that's when I looked up. His beautiful green eyes met mine and I froze.

The feeling he gave me when he looked at me was incredible. It was like he could see right through me. Like he already knew all my secrets.

Oh crap! I'm staring! Say something quick! And just as I was about to introduce myself, he beat me to it.

"Um hey, My name is Joey" he said. I could tell he was a little nervous, but I'm not sure why...he was gorgeous and way out of my league to be honest.
