You came to Kamar-Taj as your last hope to run as you used to do again. You had broken your right leg during an earthquake and you had fallen off your balcony. The fall shattered your leg in pieces and the doctors said you would never run again as you did before. It was as if your world had been torn apart because running was like breathing for you. If you couldn't run as fast as you can, it was as if someone had ripped your heart out of your chest. You met several of doctors who all came to the same conclusions that you will never regain the stability and strength you had before the accident. Until you heard about a place, a mystic place where miracles happened. Immediately you took a plane and landed at the place: Kamar-Taj. You came at the door, exhausted and knocked twice. A strange woman, wearing a yellow tunic welcomed you and let you in. She said she was the Ancient one and that she knew you, you were coming. She agreed to teach you the secrets of the mystic arts which will heal your leg. You were determined to feel the wind stroked your face again and the feeling of almost flying by running like there was no end.

It's the second day you had arrived you met him in the library, this dark tall man with a long red cloak and a blue tunic. His piercing blue eyes seemed to lock with yours and you stared at each other until Wong dropped the two big books you needed for study in front of you. Wong frowned at the sight he faced and cleared his throat.

"Y/N, here are your books. If you need anything else, come back here."

You quickly turned yourself to him and grabbed your books. There were heavier than you thought and groaned under their weight.

"Thank you, Wong. Have a nice day."

You turned again and faced the stranger with the sharp cheekbones. Hesitantly, he said:

" Would you like some help, Y/N?"

You raised your eyebrows.

" How do you know my name, sir?"

He just shrugged and said:

-"Well, Wong just said it. I'm Doctor Stephen Strange by the way."

He rose his hand for you to shake it.

" I would love to shake your hand but my hands are full. Nice to meet you, Doctor."

He waved his hand over you, the birth of a smile on his lips.

" Please, call me Stephen."

You smiled and nodded.

" I have to go. Have a nice day Stephen. You too Wong!"

And then, you walked to your room, an azure gaze stuck on your body. When you reached the door of your bedroom, you opened it and dropped the books on the table before taking a deep breath. You thought about your encounter with Stephen and a blush reached your cheeks. You weren't denying that you were not attracting to him. However, you had just met him so you had to calm down. You knew you couldn't work with your mind so ecstatic. So you decided to take a walk and maybe try to run a little. You changed into a black legging, a blue tank top and yellow sports shoes. You put your hair into a ponytail and got out of your room. You warned the Ancient one that you were going to take a walk to train yourself and she said.

" Just came back before dark."

You nodded and went to the exterior platform in which you stretched your legs for several minutes. What you didn't know was that you were watched by someone who leaned on the door, his arm crossed over his chest.
