The rain was relentless, slamming against the pavement in sheets that blurred the world into a gray
Watercolor. Ava Yang tightented
her coast around her,but it was unsless-her hair clung to her cheeks
and water speeded into her shoes
with every step she stood under the awning outside campus, phone pressed to her ear after the third
ignored Uber request.

"Steve?"she said when he finally picked up.

There was a pause."Ava you actually called me?"his tone was half-teasing and half-shocked"you only call me when you're in trouble or have you been kidnapped?"

She rolled her eyes ,rain dripping from her leashes."close enough,I'm stranded ,no ride.and it's coming down like the world's ending "

In the background she heard a brust of feminine laugh(moan)-light,
flirty and maybe more than flirting....
"Hhmmm"she was trying to cleared her throat and mind "are you busy with something"she said flatly.

"Technically, I'm not exactly alone right now"

"Clearly"she muttred.

Steven chuckled"relax, I'll send someone to get you.A friend"

"Wich friend?!"

"You will see."

That was never a good sign.steven had a Rolodex people he called friend, while Ava prefered a handful of real ones .
People who didn't just remember your name,but remember you.

She hung up with a sight, tucking the phone in her pocket.

15 minutes
Was able to make her completely soaking wet ....

Headlights cut through the rain, splashing across the sidewalk before a sleek black BMW rolled to stop in front of her , the massager window slid down.

Good news?I recognize the skeek, black BMW pulling up trowed me .
It belongs to one of Steven's friend Wich means I wouldn't end up a local news item tonight.

Bad news?the person who is driving was the last person I wanted—or I expect to pick me up .
H

e was a look at me worng and I'll destroy you and everyone you care about kinda Guy. And he'd do it looking calm and gorgeous you wouldn't notice your world is burning down around you until you were a heap of ashes.

"Get in"he didn't raise his voice —he never raised his voice, but I still heard him loud and clear over the rain.

(Nick jolvik) He was a force of nature unto himself , and I imagined the weather bowed to him.
