Lea's P.O.V.
" You are just so out of breathe." I laugh.
" Well thats what you say now, but I just ran 2 miles."
"Wow." I say in a sarcastic tone.
He laughs." So what is your name?"
"Lea, and yours?"
"I am Cory."
"So you from around L.A.?"
"No I am from New York, I just moved here, and you?"
"Grew up here but out of my 21 years of living here, something is so weird."
" And what would that be?" I ask him.
" It is so weird. That I, have never seen a girl as beautiful as you."
I feel blood rush to my cheeks and I can feel them getting red.
"Thanks" I smile, keeping my head down.When my stop came I exited the bus and made my way up from the ground to the beautiful streets of L.A.
Cory follows behind my, soon he runs up to my side."Can I walk you home? Don't want any one messing with a beautiful girl like you."
I smiled again and nodded my head yes.He continued to ask me questions and get to know me. I asked him some as well. When we arrived to my building, we stopped in front and talked a while longer.
"Could I take you out sometime. Show you the city?" He asked, Cory kept his head down, as if he was nervous.
I bit my lip, hesitating to answer.
"Sure." I say, between a smile.He looks at his feet and smiles.
Cory and I exchange numbers and I soon walk up to my door and unlock it.

As I enter my room the clock says 9:00 P.M. The time zones are killing me, but I will get used to it eventually. I change my work outfit into a pair of comfy shorts and a t-shirt. I sit at my brown work desk. The desk consists of a laptop, many books that I have read, notebooks, and a drawer in the center for writing utensil's. I pull out my journal that I started writing in 6th grade. I love to write poetry, and stories. When I began to write, and my mother read my journal, she would set me down, and say,
"My love, you have a gift, and I need you to share it with the world. When you are older and experience hard times in the world, you will write. Just write."
I look through all of my old poems and stories that I wrote. I begin to turn the page when a note falls out. I open the piece of paper. It was one of my favorite poems.
I could hear my heart beating
I could hear everyone's heart.
I could hear the human noise we sat there making
Not one if us moving.
Not even when the room went dark.I put the piece of paper back in it's page and put away my journal. I turn off the lamp and make my way to the bed. Soon I am fast asleep.
Cory's P.O.V.
I walk home in silence with pictures of Lea's smile in my head. She is so beautiful. I know I don't know her well, but I feel as if we already have a connection. I wonder how Lea feels.
It is strange, for me to have feelings for a girl I had just meet. But this girl. She is different.
