I woke up to the beautiful sound of birds chirping. The not too bright sunlight shone right through my window reflecting on my skin making it look like its glowing. My hair was soft and silky and I feel great, what a wonderful sleep.....is only what happens in movies. In reality, I woke up to the sound of a blender and Cole yelling at me to come get breakfast. I checked the time...come on..5 am. The sun was blinding me so I closed my dark blue curtains to shield my eyes. I looked in the mirror and scared the crap out off myself. My hair was sticking out every which way and I had drool all over my face. I groaned as I walked to the bathroom to take a nice.. Warm bath.

I put on my favorite pair of gray sweats and blue sports bra because I'm going for a run after breakfast. I hadn't worked out in a long time. I usually would at boxing class, but I missed this weak so I have to redeem myself by doing this.

"Finally, sleeping beauty decided to come down and join her brother for breakfast."Cole said sarcastically in a British accent

"Shut it my dear brother."I said mockingly in a British accent. My brother and I do this thing were we randomly start talking in a Brit accent. We are really good at it to be honest.

"So, what are we eating today?", I questioned as I out my wet hair into a high pony tail.

"Strawberry banana protein shakes."

"Ooohh, sounds ravishing",I said giving him an impressed look. I took the glass from the counter and drank it. My eyes opened wide at how good it taste.

"This tastes good, were did you learn to make it?", I asked while chugging down the glass.

"No where. Made the recipe up myself.", he said monotonously.

"You know, you should be a cook. I'm sure people would be dying to eat your food. They taste really good."

"Thanks big sis."

"No prob dweeb."

I then grabbed my black hoodie and head out the door. The cool 5:30 am breeze hit me as I started to jog down the neighborhood.
I jogged through the neighborhood with my ear buds listening to some relaxing lofi hip hop and then jogged around the neighborhood park about 10 times. When I finished around 6:30, I climbed a oak tree that was in the middle if the park. That was my place where I like to be alone and listen to music.

I look down at the park and observe my surroundings. Then I noticed I wasn't the only one at the park. There was this guy with black hair..by the monkey bars in the playground working out. He had no shirt on and was doing pull ups. I couldn't make out his face though.

I started to get bored and the sun started to get brighter so I decided to go home. I walked through the park to the entrance near the playground. As I walked, I looked at the shirtless guy. Up close I could tell he was a very fit person although I could only see his back, his muscles were obvious. He had in ear buds and had a tattoo on left top corner of his back. It was a word tattoo. I got curious and read it while I was walking Guen Foxworth.

I literally choked when I read that name. As i gazed at the name in amusement, I failed to see the pot hole in the ground and fell onto the plastic slide making a loud bang. Oh how graceful am I?

Well, I definitely got the strangers attention because he stopped his work out and turned to me. I stared at the ground in embarrassment looking at the strangers black running shoes. My eyes slowly trailed up his tall structure. My eyes stopped at his sharp v line then slowly trailed up to his six pack abs that were glistening with sweat. As I was mesmerized by his body I heard a familiar...annoying voice.
