Chapter I"She means nothing baby you know that." A male voice carried across the alley."You're a liar, a cheater! You unfaithful jerk!!!" A high, shaky woman voice answered above the loud noises that surrounded. "Is this nothing?" She continued showing him her phone. "You're kissing her you son of a..." She whimpered before her voice broke into a sob."Calm down, will you? Geez you can't always believe what you see!" His voice rose in volume as well, "We were rehearsing for a play." He yelled glaring at the girl accusing him."Rehearsing my ass!" She yelled throwing the phone at him. She had a pretty bloody mouth for a girl who looked so sweet."Yah! Watch your mouth and stay out of this!" He said, his voice becoming louder as he stepped closer to her. "You should learn to mind your own business while you're at it as well!""How is this none of my business?! You're my boyfriend!" She yelled slapping him across the chest and shoving him.He was beyond angry now. He grabbed her arm and raised a hand to smack her. "It’s none of your business because I say it isn't so shut the fuck up!" He yelled as his hand moved in to hit her.My feet moved instinctively towards her when another person showed up from nowhere, grabbed the guy's first two fingers and bended them back, making them snap loudly and making him kneel down in pain."You dare raise your hand on a girl?" the person asked bending his fingers even more, making him scream."Ow!! STOP! LET GO!" He screamed in pain as he tried to relieve the pressure in his hand. "Let go!""Come on, let's go, he's not even worth it." The person said shoving his hand away and kicking him. "Come on."I had been sitting there for more than five minutes, watching the whole scene, without realizing I was staring the whole time. They passed by me and realization hit me: the mysterious person was a girl.***The wind was blowing powerfully ruffling my hair and bringing it all up in my face. I was looking at my watch frantically while trying my best not to fall off those huge heels when the smell of coffee wrapped me up and lured me towards a very classy café on the way to my third interview. I stopped for a second and decided I could use a little help from my old friend - the coffee - and wrapped my hand around the door knob, pushing.I stood inside confidently and noticed the judging looks in every person's eyes. I ran my hand through my hair trying to tame it and walked towards the counter. I could feel everybody's stare on my skin but one in particular sent chills down my spine. At the table next to the counter sat a tall man wearing sun glasses and a black elegant coat.It was a little unnerving but I did my best to ignore it as best as I could. "Umm can I get a hot caramel latte please" I asked as soon as I reached the counter and just as I was paying my phone rang. "Hello...yes, I am just around the corner I'll be there in few minutes. Oh you're running behind? Twenty minute wait?" I frowned slightly 'So I was hurrying in my heels for nothing...great' I sighed and thanked the person on the other line. I could still feel the stares on my body, especially that particular one that I was sure I was getting from the guy next to the counter."These heels are killing me..." I whined in my mind rolling my eyes and looking for a vacant table but they were all occupied. I leaned back and supported myself on the counter for a second thinking about what I should do. I couldn't just go drink the coffee in another cafe, neither could I sit outside on a bench, the wind had already messed up the 15 minutes I had spent in the morning styling my hair."You can sit here." A deep voice interrupted my thoughts. I looked down and saw a pair of deep brown eyes staring into mine.The voice itself had caused goose bumps along my skin and the eyes did nothing to help as I ran my hand through my hair again thinking quickly before nodding. "Thank you so much. I was worried that I would have to sit outside." I said smiling shyly as I sat down across from him and sipped a bit of my coffee. My hand kept reaching up trying to fix the mess that I knew my hair must have been. 'I look a total mess don't I?' I asked mentally sighing and looking around the cute little cafe.Everybody looked so perfect and so dressed up. I was wearing my elegant clothes and was dressed up myself but I felt like I couldn't compare. Those outfits could put even a model to shame. I looked down at my reflection in the shiny surface of the table and noticed the man in front of me looking at me intensely, going from my red lips to my eyes, analyzing my every trait. I raised my chin instinctively and met his hypnotizing glare. Those eyes were enough to hypnotize anybody. I froze for a second and my mind went blank but as soon as I realized I was staring, I turned my head rapidly."May I?" He asked reaching his hand towards my hair.My eyes widened in surprise but I nodded letting him touch my hair. I could feel him replacing strands to where they should be. I lowered my head and kept my gaze away from him as a slight blush appeared on my cheeks. "Thank you..." I whispered hiding my eyes from his; I didn’t think that I could meet his gaze again. "It must have been a mess." I said staring down at my coffee before taking another sip of it. I could hear him snicker as he removed his hand from my hair, making me look at him again."You're pretty." He said, a seductive smile spreading across his lips.***That's the first chapter please let us know what you think! Also please subscribe!YuxieWuxie /prncsjaz
