The 'MVP' Next Door

“Dominic stop!”

This time I ran so that I was in front of him putting my hands on his chest to keep him from moving; I could feel his chest heaving up and down.

“You can’t just say those things, it confuses me! You confuse me…What-“
My voice started breaking.

So much for keeping strong.

“What Tamryn? What?” He sounded irritated, his words cut me like a razor.
It left me stunned, it was like he wanted nothing to do with me. He pushed pass me and kept walking.

As I saw his figure disappearing in the tunnel I shrieked “WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!”

He stopped dead in his tracks; my voice was so high pitch it probably scared him.

I whispered it this time. “What do you want from me?”

Tamryn's never known what she's wanted in life, but whatever it is she wants she thinks she can find it in New York.

Her automatic response is that she moved there to reconnect with her best friend Natalie, but is that really why?

As expected she begins to find herself but more importantly, she finds the most annoying person known to man three doors down.

But there's more to this boy next door, he's more like 'the MVP of the NBA' next door.
