Narrator POV

It was morning and you, once again, woke up to the sun blaring in your face. Your eyes had just adjusted to the sun and you fixed your hair a little bit before gathering your things and walking out of the alleyway. You did the same thing as yesterday. Walk around the city, get weird glares from people passing by you, and finally stopping somewhere. 

You sat down in front of a building and brought out your hat and sign. 'I wish someone could take me in so I don't have to live on the streets' you thought. Then, someone walked past you and they turned around and looked down at you. The person was definitely a guy. He had brownish black hair which semi-covered his face, he had a muscular build, and he was wearing a gray jacket with blue jeans and black shoes.

"What are you doing on the street? Don't you have a home?" he asked me.

I was hesitant at first, but then I answered his question. "Well, it's kind of a long story." you said rubbing the back of your neck.

"Tell me. I'm here to listen." he said while sitting next to me.

"I guess. So, it all started when I turned 18. It was a couple days ago and I decided to run away from my only home which was an orphanage. I always got into trouble and I had no friends because of it. I hated it there. So, the night I ran from the orphanage, I ran so much I didn't realize I was in the city. I've tried escaping before but I never got this far and I was always found. So now, I am living on the streets." I said.

"Oh. I'm sorry. Would you like to come stay with me? I have an extra bedroom you could sleep in."

You gasped at his offer and looked down. 'Should you Y/N? I mean, I would love to have a home again but you don't know him. He's just a stranger'  you thought. 

"I will accept your offer." I said smiling. 'Woah. Smiling feels good. I haven't smiled since I turned five'  you thought.

"Then pack your stuff and lets go!! Oh, what's your name?"

"Y/N L/N" you replied.

"Nice to meet you Y/N. My name is Jake." he said smiling.

"Nice to meet you too Jake." you replied back.

---Time Skip---

We finally got to his house after a few minutes. It didn't take that long since it was like right around the corner anyways. He unlocked the door and held it open for you. You walked inside and looked at your surroundings. It was a beautiful apartment.

"Like it?" Jake says, snapping you out of your gaze.

"It's a beautiful place." you replied.

Jake smiled at me and I smiled back. We stared into each others eyes until he broke it.

"I better go record a video. If you want to take a shower-" he stopped and told me to follow. I followed him till we got to a door down the hall. He opened it and it was the bathroom. "here is a towel and we could go shopping for clothes tomorrow if you want. I'll get you one of my shirts to wear." he said.

"Thank you Jake. And I think I need new clothes so I would like to." you said.

"Ok. I'll leave you alone so you could shower. I'll bring in your- I mean my shirt." he said and left.

After he left, you started the shower and waited till it was the temperature you wanted. Afterwards, you stripped and got in. You took a long shower like you always did. (Sorry if you don't long showers but I do so I put it in.) You got out only to be greeted by a door opening. Jake walked in and you quickly covered your body with the towel.
