I had just got off the plane and decided I need to find a job. I realized I have no money so I have nowhere to sleep tonight. I decided to take a taxi.

I waited outside for a cab to come. Eventually, a taxi pulled up and I went to the window.

A man about in his late 20s peered through. He had a beard but not thick but enough to cover his cheekbones and chin. His hair was parted down the middle. He wore a black shirt with light wash jeans with a belt.

This man was just... sexy. How can someone like him be a driver?

"How much?"

I said almost drooling over him.

"Depends where you're going kid."

His voice was deep and soothing. It almost made me forget where I was. (Think about Joe Manganiello or Alcide for some of you, search him up if you don't know him)

I pursed my lips conflicted. I looked around and realized I was alone. For the first time in a long time, I was alone. My heart raced as I began to see people running around me, yelling to get inside the airport, people looking for family. It was crazy.

It got hard to breathe. I looked around hysterically.

Out of nowhere, I felt a hand on my arm. I looked and seen the taxi man.

"Whoa, calm down kid. Do you have anywhere to go? Are you here alone?"

I nodded and he sighed deeply at me before putting his hands on his hips.

"Look, you can stay with me for a while until you get on your feet. I'm busy during the day so don't get comfortable having me around. Only if you'd like."

I nodded and smiled. He put his hand out and shook mine.

"Jason Johnson or JJ if you'd like. Come, get in"

I slowly got into the passenger seat. I was nervous he may kill me with all honestly. No one's ever this nice right off the bat.

As we were driving, I felt uneasy. What if he was hired by my mother or father to bring me home.

I got nervous and quickly reached for the door and opened it. I unbuckled my seatbelt about to jump out when Jason grabbed my arm with his right hand while his left is steering.

"What the hell are you doing! Get in here!"

He yanked me back inside and closed the door. He locked the door and both him and I were left breathing heavily.

"What were you thinking kid"

I didn't say anything to him. I just looked out the window scared.

I felt the air lighten and time passed in silence.

"What's your name"

He said calmly. I ignored him not trusting him.

"Okay then. Well, you already know my name, Jason. I should tell you a bit about myself hm? Hopefully, you'll tell me your name. I am 30, I am also a teacher, English specifically. My favourite colour is black, I have a dog named Kim, shes cute. She's a mixed breed. She's a border collie, you'll like her."

I sat there and listened for a bit. I was actually shocked he said he was 30. He can definitely be my father. Too bad, he's super hot. I decided I should start a conversation.

"English hm. Anything crazy happens in English class?"

He hummed to himself lightly before nodding and chuckling.

''First, I want to know your age so I know if I should tell you or not"

I chuckled to myself at his careful comment. I looked out the window admiring the green trees.

"18, 19 in-"

I realized my birthday was next month. Too bad I won't be with my mom or dad... I miss them...

"19 when?"

"Oh, 19 next month actually"

He chuckled and nodded approvingly.

"You're a year older than her, good. So basically, I'm in class teaching and the bell rings to leave class, to go home do whatever teenagers do these days. As I'm grading papers, a girl name Stacy comes into my class right."

"Right"

"So she sits on my desk and I look up. On my way up she opens her legs and I fell out of my chair startled."

I blurted out laughing. That's preposterous.

"I ran out of the classroom with her yelling in the back "I NEED AN A" That was the scariest moment of my entire life"

I laughed harder knowing how shy he got. He rubbed the temple of his forehead trying to contain his laughter.

The car ride got quiet again. It was a peaceful silence, no awkwardness.

After about 45 minutes, we ended up at his supposed place. He opened the door for me and I walked into the beautiful yet simplistic house. Jason, er, Mr. Johnson walked right past me putting his things down.

I looked around with my feet planted in one spot. I was astonished by the marble and grey around the house.

I heard him chuckle in the back. I looked and seen him already looking at me.

"I'll show you where you can stay, come."

I followed him down the hall. He opened the door for me once again and I walked in.

"So this is your room, bathroom is in that room, my room is down the hall so if you need anything, I'll be there. I'm going to go grade some papers, there's food in the kitchen. Make yourself at home."

He gave me the kindest smile and began to walk off.

"Y/N, Kim Y/N. "

He turned and shook my hand.

"Nice to finally meet you, Ms. Kim"

He walked out and closed the door.

I laid on the bed and immediately passing out from exhaustion.
