Suddenly my feet make contact with a hard concrete surface. A blinding light causes me to shade my eyes with my hand. As I take in my new surroundings.

Chapter 5
Clara’s POV
You know when a day is going to be pretty crappy from the start, today is one of those day. I mean look at my day so far.
1. I fell of a flying dragon
2. I swallowed a green icky tasting bug while falling of the dragon. (not nice I can still feel the aftertaste affecting my stomach making me want to regurgitate all the things I have eaten in the last 24 hours.)
3. I have been abandoned by my best friend. Who coincidently happens to be the dragon I was falling off of previously. Yes I know I have an amazing life!
4. I fell (again) through a magical portal, landing, me on my backside for what seems to be the fifth time.
5. And lastly, if my day hasn’t been bad enough God decided it was now my turn to be squashed by a giant bus heading straight in my direction.
So yeah I think I’m entitled to say that so far my day hasn’t been looking so great. I might even go so far as say it has been the worst day in my entire life. But that is me just being dramatic, cause I don’t see no psycho killer hunters shooting at me, which makes today different from others. But hey, there’s always tomorrow. I know it’s my curse that I’m all ways so optimistic, Hint: notice the sarcasm.
So your probably wondering why I am currently standing, wait that is wrong let’s say I’m crouching in the path of a massive 300Kg bus loaded with at least 60 people. Well less that 2 minutes ago I fell from the sky like an angel shot down from the heavens. Well that’s how I like to think of it at least, most people would have gone with a wrestling gorilla pushed out of very high tree. Screaming and wailing the whole way down. So if you get my drift I’m ‘falling’ from the sky and I land in the middle of the road. On the extremely uncomfortable concrete, crawling into a crouched position I ponder thoughts about my day. Anyway you know the rest I’m thinking about my whole day, when I am snapped out of my thoughts by the honking of a horn. Like a dear trapped in the headlights, I was stunned, incapable of a single thought I just crouched their watching me eminent death approach. Closer and closer and closer, taking a deep breath I slowly squeeze my eyes shut. The last glimpse I saw was when the bus was only one meter away.
Any minute now I should be feeling the impact. Any minute, wait for it. But that is all that happened I only waited for the impact never came. Realising what happened I felt a strong arm wrap around my shoulder. Only now did I start to hear the string of words spouting from his mouth.
“What the fresh hell, do you think you were doing? You could have been killed! In fact if I didn’t pull you out of the way you would have been killed. Why would a pretty you thing like yourself want to die?” He kept asking questions, but I don’t think he was expecting to receive an answer. I just sat there on the ground listening. For I owed it to him, not to interrupt, but I can’t say that I was really paying attention. Looking up I realised it seemed he had finished his rant and was satisfied with what was said. Though there was something in the air, like an unanswered question.
“Did you hear what I said” ohh so there was an unanswered question my bad. “What I’m sorry……. Sir?” leaving the question open for I had no idea who he was I decided sir was appropriate, I continued “I am just a bit shaken up, I am sorry would you mind repeating the question?”
“It’s alright, my name is Blake. I am sorry I shouted at you I had no right. It’s just not every day you see something so beautiful fall from the sky and then almost be road kill by a bus. I was asking what your name was and whether you needed and help getting home?” For what felt like the fifth time I was struck speechless. My mouth forming a perfect O, here was someone trying to help me for once instead of murder me. He was a gentleman in every sense of the word, well except for when he was yelling at me of cause. Oh wait he was me a question, he was just standing their awkwardly playing with his thumbs waiting for a reply. While I stared and him with an open mouth, I think I even felt some drool in the corner on my mouth.
God how embarrassing, he must think I am such a loser. Discretely wiping the drool from my mouth I answer him. Trying to sound a calm and well peaceful contrasted to me raging feeling inside. “Umm, m-my n-name is Clara” Ohh my god did I just stutter so much for calm and collected, dammit. “Well nice to meet you Clara, now how about that ride home” I let out that breath I didn’t know I was still holding. He still wanted to offer me a ride. I couldn’t believe my ears as his warm rich voice enveloped my senses. MHHH god did I ever “Urghh If you don’t mind, I am kind you new to town. I haven’t been back since forever. And it would be really reassuring if you went with me.” At least I sounded calmer, I hope I didn’t come off to clingy. That when I realised what I was doing who was this? This isn’t me I have given a flying monkeys batot about what people have thought about me. Snap out of this Clara this is really dangerous and you are going to get hurt if you put your guard up.
“Sure, it’s no problem. I don’t mind at all. I’ll just go catch a taxi.” Well good for him, why should I care. Yeah this is the real Clara coming back, and I embraced her with open arms. Watching him walk up to the curb and hail a taxi. I realised I haven’t really got a good look at him.
He was wearing dark denim pants and a tight blue shirt that clung to him like a second layer of skin. Yumm he had muscles in all the right places, I could see his muscles in his biceps flex as he waved down the taxi. His hair was golden brown, unkept and shaggy like he just got out of bed. It made me become a puddle where my feet was. If I wasn’t already standing would have surely banged my head on the concrete. Urghhh and those eyes they were moss green, they looked so light and I could be see my reflection. Hold on, see he my reflection. He was looking at me smirking, I hadn’t seen the taxi pull up. He has turned around and caught me practically eye raping him. Urghhhh I could so die right now. But I will not let him win this one.
“Did you like what you see” I could see him trying to not laugh.
Pulling myself up, I walked confidently past him. My eyes never straying from straight ahead, only when I was in the taxi with my feet planted firmly on the ground. Did I turn around, the smirk still on his face. When I faced him it turned into a full blown smile, knowing what I was about to say was going to knock that smile straight off his face, I smiled back.
I evenly and clearly said these following words. “I’ve seen better, allot better” And just like I said his smile faulted and then falling off his perfect face completely, turning into a grouchy frown. Satisfied I sat straight ahead and never looked back. Only knowing he entered the car by the dip in the seat cushion.
Yep this is going to be one hell of a ride.
