My Dear Romeo

Chapter 3~ Unexpected Guest

Claire slowly made her way down the street to the park where she was supposed to meet Ryan at. She quickly sent a text to Louis saying where she was going and to pick her up in 10 minutes. Her phone buzzed a few seconds later.

From:Lou-Lou

Okay(: see you in a bit hun!

She smiled at the text. Louis could always make her smile. No matter what. Claire was almost to the park when she heard a noise come out of the ally she was walking by and she froze. It sounded like a cough. She started thinking to herself about wether or not she should go in. Finally she decided to continue walking, but then she heard, "Hello? Is somebody out there? I need help. Please."

There was a battle inside her head to either continue on walking for it might be trap set by a gang or to go in the ally because somebody might really need help. Her decision was to check it out.

"H-hello? Who's in here?" she asked into the black nothingness.

"Yes! Yes! I'm in here! Please call an ambulance I need help.", said a voice not too deep in the ally.

Claire used her phone as a light to see her way through the ally. Finally her light shown on the owner of the voice. He was a man who appeared to look about 22 years of age. His hand was holding his side as if he has been hurt.

"You finally got a pretty one there eh Jared?" said a deep voice from Claire's side.

She quickly turned around to see who the owner of the voice was. It was another man who looked around 25 years old. The man on the floor, Jared, was skinny yet muscular and had very handsome facial hair. However, the other man who's name is still unknown was way to muscular and had some hair but his face seemed to be scarred with years of fights.

"W-who are you?" Claire asked trying not to show fear but failing miserably at it.

"Does it really matter who we are? 'Cause I don't think it does." Jared said standing up off the floor removing his hand from his side. Showing there was nothing wrong with him to begin with.

This is when Claire took the hint that these people were up to no good. She decided to make a beeline for the street just a few yards from her outside the alleyway. But the two men knew what she was thinking and grabbed her. Claire tried screaming but couldn't because one of the men hand their hand around her mouth. All that could be heard was muffled screams for help. She started being dragged down the ally by the two men having a clue as of what was going to happen...

Luke's P.O.V-

'Its a nice night out' Luke thought to himself as he walked down the street. He was heading home from a friend's house. Even though it had been a week since he had seen the picture of Claire and he couldn't stop thinking about her. He has never met her, and possibly never will. But still, that doesn't mean he couldn't think about her. He was so caught up in his thoughts that he hadn't realized he made it almost half-way home. He was by the local park and had just a little ways left to get home.

So many memories were shared at this park. He started to remember some of those memories, but was broken out of his thoughts when he heard a trashcan fall in the ally he was walking by. Then he heard a voice say,"Don't make so much noise! You'll attract attention. Let's just get the girl and leave." Something started to boil up inside of Luke.

Ever since he was little, Luke hated when boys disrespected girls. He believed they should be treated like they're on top if the world. He froze when he heard the girls voice. "HELP!!"

"Shut it or else girl!" a different voice said.

This was too much. Luke couldn't handle it all. "No you stop," he suddenly said while pointing a flashlight at the people in the ally. 'And people thought it was nerdy to carry around a flashlight' he thought to himself.

He heard the to men cuss and let go of the girl. She saw a chance to run and took it. The men knew there was no point in trying to catch her and instead took off running in the opposite direction.

The girl bumped into Luke and fell to the floor and started to break down in tears. Luke knew he couldn't just leave her here so he kneeled down beside her unsure of what to do exactly. "Why don't we go across the street to the park?" he suggested trying to see if it will help her feel better. All he gets is a mere nod of the head. He helps the girl up still not seeing her face.

When they reached the park he sat her down on the bench and just sat there awkwardly. "Hey!" he heard yet another man's voice say angrily. He looked up to see a teenage looking boy. The boy had short, spiked up, dirty blonde hair and had the build of a football player.

"What are you doing with my girlfriend?!" the boy asked in the same tone as before.

Then for the first time the girl spoke, "Girlfriend!? Girlfriend!?! After what happened today you think we're still together!? No! We are DONE! I trusted you and you betrayed me! Do you know how stupid I felt when I saw you guys together on those swings? Sucking each others faces off? Like I wouldn't care? Like it wouldn't hurt me? Did you ever even THINK about me Ryan? Did you?"

Now this was to awkward for Luke. "You're not going to get rid of me that easily," Ryan said grabbing the girl's wrist and she yelped in pain. Luke got up and knocked the guys hand off of her. The girl went behind Luke.

"Ryan leave. Before I call the cops and you know I will."

Shock passed over Ryan's face and then turned into a scowl. "Fine", was all he said and turned around and walked away. Luke stood there still shocked by what just happened. He turned to finally look at the girl. His air caught in his throat. It was Claire.

"Claire? Is that you?", he asked when he got his voice back.

"Y-yea.. Who are you," she asked while backing away slowly.

Right when Luke was about to answer a car horn honked from the curb. Claire looked over and recognized Louis car. "I have to go. Thanks.. For saving me.." and left to Louis' car leaving Luke in a daze, wondering if him meeting Claire was real or not.

Claire's P.O.V-

"Who's that?", Louis asked as soon as I got in the car.

"I don't know..", was my answer. All I know is that I really want to see him again..

"Well you better explain when we get to my house ok missy," he told instead of asked me. I was so not looking forward to the conversation to come..
