I'm starting to think this is just going to become a story line on Steven. lol. Nothing wrong with that though. I will however maybe change the name of the story then and edit some chapter names. If y'all can think of any good story names , let me know. I have a hard enough time thinking of chapter names.

The main reason I'm thinking this is going to be just one story instead of several short stories is I thought of an ending for this if I continue it the way I have been. I'm excited for where this might be going. I just need to come up with some fun adventures along the way.

Now, let's see if I can work out another part here. No promises it'll be any good though.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Steven's  fingers drum rhythmically on the steering  wheel as he prepares to pull out onto the street.

"Now, if you tell me where you live, I'll take you home so you can change into something else," he smiles

"That would be wonderful," you look down at your disheveled  appearance with disgust. "Also I desperately need to comb my hair and grab the number for the tow truck company," you start  a mental list of everything you needed at your place.

When he nods, you tell him your address and he starts to head there. It's quiet in the car, but your mind is whirling.  You can't believe you just met him last night when he saved your life. Somehow, someway,  it feels like you've known him your entire life. He's so warm and comforting to you. You're so lost in your thoughts, thinking about the last few hours that you don't even realize when he pulls up to your place till he parks.

"I can wait out here if you like," he smiles.

" No, you can come in. I won't be long," you smile.

You both unbuckle and step out of the car. You wait for a moment as he locks the car and then comes over to you. You walk up to your place together, receiving looks from your nosey neighbor that loves to watch everyone see what was going on. Nothing was secret from this gossip. You roll your eyes, receiving a little chuckle from Steven as he sees the look on your face. Just to drive the neighbor a little crazier, he places his hand on the middle of your back as you two head to your door. Your cheeks flush and you groan internally knowing the rumors that would spread around your neighborhood now.

You take him inside and he looks around your place. It wasn't much really, but it was your place. Thankfully everything was mostly tidy other than a few papers and books strewn on around on a table, but other than that it was mostly clean. It should be. You spend a day and a half cleaning it a week ago. His eyes scan the room and you watch as his gaze falls to a bunch of family pictures on the wall. He sees a picture of you your graduation day with your family where you all had crazy expressions and smiles at it. You flush a bit as you realize how horribly awkward you looked at that time. Then again, who didn't have that one awkward picture.
