I Arrived at the JFK Airport in New York and in the arrivals hall had a driver and a couple of bodyguards waiting to take me to my new apartment. 

My father had done everything possible to keep me from missing anything, being his only daughter, he was sometimes a little overprotective. 

- Miss Burton - said the driver down the little sign I had on hand. 

- That's me! but please call me Helena.- I said smiling. 

-As you wish. Mr. Burton asked me to tell you that your car will be here next week but there's one inside the building you can use and there is a little surprise that is waiting in your new home -. the driver said. 

The bodyguards took my bags and put them in the van. A surprise?, What has my dad done now?. 

We got my building and the guys took my bags to my apartment on the 15th floor, i got on the elevator and press the number 15 and the doors began to close slowly. 

- Stop the elevator! -. I heard someone scream. 

I press the button to open the door and a guy my height with longish black hair came in. He had an arm covered with tattoos and lip piercing. 

- Which floor? -. I asked him examining him some more. Wore black pants and red shirt, had some beautiful hazel eyes and a charming smile that made me feel a little nervous. 

- 15 -. He said straightening his hair. -Hey, I haven't seen you here before, What are you, new? or you come to visit someone? - 

- I am new, just moved here from Florida, my name's Helena. - 

He offered his hand and i hesitate a bit before shaking it. There was something I liked about this guy, he was very nice and quite handsome. 

** What the hell is wrong with you hel?! you just met the guy! Besides, you have Ville to think about remember?? **

-My name's Frank, and i don't bite unless you ask me to . . . - He said, releasing my hand and winking. 

I just smiled and I got even more nervous. The elevator chimed, we finally reached the 15th floor. 

We left the elevator and walked down the hall together in silence trying to avoid making eye contact but it wasn't working very well on my end. I stopped at the door marked with the number 515 and opened with the key that the driver gave me. Frank stopped me from going inside when he saw me pull out my key and asked. 

- Are you doing something tonight?-. He put his hands behind his back and he gave me the biggest and cutest puppy eyes i had ever seen, he was irresistible and he knew it. 

-Mmm. . . not really. I was only going to unpack some things and try to rest. . . - 

I opened the door to my apartment and felt something run between my legs and i yell loudly, I couldn't see well what it was. I looked over to were Frank was and a little shih tzu puppy with white and black spots and a huge purple bow around his neck, I think is bow was bigger than his head, it made him look even cuter! He was sniffing around our shoes and after a few seconds he licked them.

-AWW WHAT A CUTE PUPPY! -. Said Frank stooping to pick it up in his arms, approached me. -Look sweety, it's just a little puppy. - 

He said making the distance between us even smaller. 

That made me even more nervous. 

** Sweety? when did i become "sweety"? weirdo. **

- I screamed 'cause that scared me! i didn't think there would be a dog coming out my apartment. - 

I took the puppy in my arms and looked at him, i had always wanted a dog but my mother always said no, I think my pops gave him to me so i don't feel so alone while I'm here. 

-I'm gonna call you. . . Ghost, you're pretty quick to be so small Ghost -. I told my new pet, gave a little bark and licked my face. 

-I think he likes you-. Frank said stepping closer. 

I was cornered, if it were not for Ghost, Frank would be leaning against me. My heart started beating so fast I could hear it in my ears. 

** I hope he can't hear it **  I thought, ** Why does he make so nervous? Sure he's cute, his ink and piercing suit him, his eyes  are beautiful . . . what am i doing?! I can't fantasize about some guy i just met like 5 minutes ago! Besides, Ville will wake up soon. **

I stared at the floor and tried to erase those thoughts. 

-Helena, would you go out with me tonight?. - Frank said taking my chin in his hand making me stare into his eyes. 

-Some friends and I are going to a party in a while and I'd appreciate it very much if you were with me. . . . ? Hel? Helena? anyone there?. - 

I got lost in his beautiful hazel eyes and didn't hear anything after he asked me to go with him to the party. It was a fact, I liked this guy but didn't love him like i loved Ville, besides I had made him a promise. 

-Oh! i'm so sorry. . . . I tend to drift off sometimes, umm. . . . sure why not? I could use a night out before i become a book worm.-

- hahaha, Well I'll pick you up in 2 hours, what do you say, sweety?. - 

He was still holding my chin and walked over to kiss me, looked very determined to do it on the lips, that scared me a lot and I held my breath, my skin began to bristle and my mind clouded but at the last second he change course and kissed my cheek near the corner of my mouth, pulled back, he winked and left. 

I did not move until I lost sight of him, in fact I could not move, i looked like i was stuck to the wall and I could breathe again. I went inside and closed the door. 

** No one has had that effect on me. Not even Ville. ** I thought, ** I wonder how is he? Has he woken up? **
