Wow, now that is something you don't see everyday. I thought to myself. The view that I had showed all the right but wrong angles for my young sixteen year old eyes. Hello! It's the middle of the freaking parking lot. But who would be out there? From the home repair shops roof I could see it all. The way the girl moved like a snake, trying to worm her way around the dark haired guy that was accompanying her. Well, it was more then accompanying her, kind of sucking his face off. The sound the roof door opening made me snap out of my peeping tom moment and down to reality. My hand automatically started to move the broom in my hands back and forth, sweeping away the leaves that had fell from the nearby tree.

" Jenna, are you done with that?" asked Bryan. My shift manager, he was an Okay looking guy but that disappeared from the moment you had a conversation with him. I mean could the guy be any more annoying? I looked over and saw his back first as he turned in circles look at the almost done sweep that I was suppose to have done long ago.

"Just give me a few more minutes Bryan. I only have to finish this side and I'm all done. " I said in an annoying voice because it was always the something with Bryan: I never finish anything fast enough for his liking.

" Well hurry up I want to go home now, it's late and I got a long drive back." he said

" Well how bout you stop talking so that I can concentrate.'

" Hey, there's no need for your sassiness missy" pointing a finger at me.

" Whatever" I whispered

" What was that?"

"Nothing"

By the time I was done Bryan had already gone down to finish closing that store up. I looked one last time at the parking lot. Finding nothing.

...

I didn't live that far from my working place to I walked home. Cutting into the woods and down the hill that lead to my apartment building. I didn't mind the dark that was coming from both side of me. The woods were small and no animal could really live in them, maybe a bird or two. As I turned left to get out, a dark shadowy figure suddenly appeared in front of me, stopping me dead in my tracks. I took a step back trying to focus on the figure that seemed to be moving fast, very fast form side to side. Making it hard for me to focus on it. As I tried to look at it head, pale blue eyes started at me. It was the only thing that I could focus on. The glare was smoothing, relaxing, sleepy...

"I can't believe that you did this Jake, why do you always have to jump the gun? Always" were the first words that I heard as I came back to life.

"What was I suppose to do? Ashlee let her go?, again?" anger was in this voice, like he was dispread and....happy at the same time.

Someone sighed

"No I guess not. But Jake you have to understand that this might be her but she doesn't know you." said that so called Ashlee.

I kept my eyes closed in fear that if I open them something bad would happen. I tried to focus on the voices.

"I know that, I always know that, every time this happens she doesn't remember me" his voice was almost pained. A door opened and closed.

I heard foot steps coming closer to me. I stiffen in response. Breathing in evenly so that they couldn't see that I was wake. It got closer until I knew that it was beside me on my right. The sound of fabric moving was my indicator that it was about to touch me. My heart started pumping blood faster then even as I waited. A hand landed on my cheek and slowly started to cares it. As if I was something fragile and precious. Then the hand stopped suddenly and grow hard and heavy against my face. Then it was gone. Angry footsteps walked away from me. The door open and closed with a hard clap.
