Unknown P.o.v.

I was walking back to my car that was a block away from the local fast food restaurant.

And heard crying.

So I followed the soft cry.

To a girl behind a building.

And saw her with her head in the palms of her hands crying her eyes out.

"Are you okay?" I asked softly trying not to startle her.

Morgan p.o.v.

"Are you okay?" a deep voice ringed in my ears.

"huh?" I wiped my tears away.

"I'm sorry" I grabbed my bag standing up.

I started walking again.

"Do you want to call someone?" he said handing me his phone.

"Sure"  I grabbed it dialing a fake number.

"Hello" I spoke to myself.

I sighed.

"No answer" I lied not really talking to anyone.

"Okay do you need a ride home or anything? I just want to help me you look like you've been through a lot " he said.

"I have no home" I shrugged sliding back on the wall.

He sat next to me.

"So you're homeless?" he asked looking into my eyes.

"yeah...but i have it under control" I lied.

He looked as if he was hypnotized.

He snapped out and licked his lips quickly.

"No you don't....you look a mess" he said.

"....ugh" I sighed.

"No I didn't mean it like that"  he said.

"Yeah....it-it's fine plus I can't help the way I look I just.... Was born this way and I can't change it" I said.

"No I didnt mean...." He started

"It's okay I'm used to it" I nodded as tears were on the verge of just  pouring from my eyes.

"I...." He started.

"I can handle this myself" I said picking up my bags as tears fell slowly.

"Where are your parents?" he asked stopping me.

"Don't ask" I stopped not even.looking back at him,

"I mean i can call my mom and ask if you can stay with us til you get on your feet or something? " he suggested stepping in front of me.

"No I got this" I said.

"No please"  he said grabbing my hand gently.

I sighed then nodded my head.

He then called his mom.

"Mom I have a friend here that is homeless can we take her in for a bit" he said.

"Thanks mom"He hung up the phone.

"she said of course"  he said.

"Let go" he grabbed my hand pulling me over to the car.

....

I sat in the front seat silently while he drove.

"soo....what's your name?" He asked.
