It was finally the first day of classes at UA High. I woke up to the sound of my alarm going off and forced my tired body to stand up and get ready to face the day. I walked over to the window near my desk and opened it, wincing at the natural light being let in. I couldn't believe it was so bright for being so early. 

Walking over to the still somewhat full closet in my room I made the mental decision to go for a quick jog before hopping in the shower, hoping it would wake me up a bit. Gazing into my closet, I had chosen my workout outfit very quickly, I slid on the black leggings I always wore on runs and a bright pink sports bra. After I had managed to finally get the bra over my endowed chest I grabbed a ponytail holder and gathered all of my long hair into a ponytail at the top of my head. I looked into the mirror and admired how my hair looked when up, I do like it better down, but my bright red roots that turned into a blonde ombre at the base of my neck did look pretty cool all tied up. I grabbed my phone and wireless headset and went downstairs to greet my dad who had some eggs cooking up for me.

"Hey, sweetie do you have time for breakfast? I thought it would be nice to cook for you one last time before you had to deal with cafeteria food." I could see the amusement on my father's face as he let out a deep chuckle, he said this knowing that every school cafeteria he had ever been in had horrible cafe food. I looked over to my loving father with a gentle smile, I couldn't help but laugh along with him. His laughter always made me feel better. 

I sat down with him and Elena who gotten up early to wish me luck, we ate the breakfast and I dashed out the door to start my quick morning jog. It was a nice and sunny day which made it easy for me to work up quite a sweat. As I was making my way down the street, I felt beads of sweat start to go down my face and temples. I was making my way down the street when I saw the end of my block and turned right.

I slowed down when I saw a male leaning down over his knees against a wall that looked to lead to a house, breathing heavily, I wonder if he lives there. He looked as though he had just had a very intense workout. 

As I made my way closer I saw him grab the orange water bottle sitting on the ground next to him and lean his neck upwards exposing himself to the direct rays of the sunlight in order to drink from the bottle. The closer I got the more I noticed how well defined and large all of his muscles were, he looked as though he was sculpted by the Gods themselves. His broad shoulders were layered with thick bulging muscles. As he leaned up to take a drink from his water bottle I had a clear view of his broad thick chest against his tight black tank top. 

As I neared closer to him, still jogging, I could finally start to make out his facial features from the side. His jawline was sharp and defined, and his eyes were large, and his blonde eyebrows were furrowed close to the center of his forehead as if he was mad at something. 

The closer I got, I knew he could hear my footsteps on the pavement as he stopped drinking his water to look up and meet my gaze. His eyes were breathtaking, they were a bright red, eyes that I couldn't stop looking at. 

As I made my way towards where he was leaning, he stood up to his full height, chest out like a proud man, I could see how sweaty he was that's how close I was getting and I was only getting closer. He had this unruly blonde spiked hair that framed his face so beautifully. He had the front part of his bangs pinned back to keep the pieces of hair out of his eyes. He held eye contact with me as I jogged past him. 

When I got to the spot where he was standing, I couldn't help myself but keep this eye contact, it felt almost as if he was challenging me to look away, I didn't like losing so I kept staring into the bright red orbs staring back at me. It felt as if time had slowed once I reached him. Holding eye contact with him, with the wind flowing and moving some of his hair, my hair also moving around. After I passed him, I took the chance to look back and steal another glance at this man, we met eyes again, he was still watching me as I ran ahead.
