"I need you to be my girlfriend." I told her.

My eyes are pleading. I cannot mess this one up. It could affect my everything. And honestly, I just want her to agree. Well, she needs to. The paparazzi already know who she is. Probably her neighbors told them. It was such a mistake to go there. I should had known that people will recognize me, despite my baseball caps and shades. Or maybe I stood there far too long, and gathered unwanted attention.

She looked at me, her green eyes are not revealing anything. She's beautiful. More beautiful than the picture and every bit as beautiful as I expected her to be. I knew that the picture didn't do her justice. Looking at her now, where her face is so animated, makes my poor heart swell. I can look at her forever. Her cheeks are a little flushed, revealing some freckles. Her red lips are slightly parted. She looks like she is contemplating what to do with the situation. She is calmer than I expected. Does she understood what I said? She thought I was kidnapping her. Well, sort of. But not to kill her for sure. I smiled again with her reaction.

Seconds passed and we just stared at each other. I begin to feel anxiety. Why won't she say anything?

"Maddie?" I said carefully. I'm not sure what to say. Maybe she spaced out?

She blinked and looked at the car door before turning her back on me and putting her hands on the door like she's searching something. I think she is trying to find the car handle.

"I'm not sure that it a good idea love, we are in the middle of the road." I told her but she frantically kept on finding the door handle. I mentally laughed. The door handle is right in front of her, she just pulled it in the wrong way. She looks so cute.

"If you go out of the car right now, you will need to walk far to find public transportation." I informed her. She looked at me with wide eyes, then looked around us. Her jaw fell when she realized where we were.

"We are already in the intersection?!" She said panicky. 

"How come we came here so fast? It was only a few minutes!" She accused me. Her voice is higher than normal. Her chest rise and fall quickly which made her practically panting. Damn, she turns me on. She is so hot.

"Well driving fast is kind of my thing, Red." I winked at her.

"You could have gotten us killed!" She said, glaring at me. I don't think she recognized me. If she does, she will have a little trust on my driving skills. 

Maybe. After all, I'm the world's champion.

"Relax, baby. And trust me, I never been in a car crash." I told her and gave her a smirk which she returned with a glare. Trust me, this woman is sexy as hell.

"Well I don't care. I'm going out of here." She said as she continued searching for the handle.

"Red, just listen to me please. I need your help." I pleaded. 

"Come on, I'll give you a deal. You will listen to me for 15 minutes, then I'll send you home and give you your wallet back. Deal?"

Her beautiful eyes returned their focus on me and I felt a little imbalance. I have a strong sensation that this event happened before. Her looking at me like this. I recognize this feeling and it makes me a little unsettled. Deja vu? I don't know. This is indeed weird.

"I'll give you 5 minutes." She said stubbornly as she pouted her sexy lips and crossed her arms at her chest once again.

"Ten minutes." I counter- offered. 

"Come on Red, this concerns our life." I told her.

"My life?" She asked, her eyes turned wide once again. "Mr. if you can remember." She took a deep breath. "We just met half an hour ago. Now, how can you even put my life and your life in a single sentence?"
