I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock, groaned, and made my way to the bathroom. After having a long, relaxing bath, I dressed in black shorts and a light pink crop top. I make my way downstairs to see Dad making breakfast. We exchanged our hellos before I sat down and took a sip of my mixed fruit juice.

"So, first day in high school, I hope you are okay, "He said.

I sigh."You expect me to enjoy high school on our third shift ?".

We have shifted the third time this year, and it sucks. After my mom died, my dad got depressed, but his trying to forget her and trying to find a better job for both of us was the least expected by me. I respect him for that, but I get irritated as to how I have to leave my new best friends and move to an unknown place. And making friends for me, boy, that isn't easy.

Dad drove me to the high school. He lightly pecked my cheek before saying goodbye.I make my way to the office for information. After getting the schedule, I walk to my locker. While walking to my locker, I see a couple of boys in some sports outfits and girls clinging to them.

They were from some football or basketball team.I was looking at them and the girls who looked like models when I got roughly shoved by some boys.

My arms hit the locker as pain shot through them.I heard the group laugh.

Well great way to start a day, isn't it ?

After a couple of lectures, it was lunch time, I made my way out of the school building and sat on the benches near the football ground.I don't wanna be humiliated again.My mind and my eyes were in the book, with my other hand grabbing the apple.

Suddenly, I heard a car pull over on the driveway. The ground was all clear so I could see a man rushing out of the building to the car .

Must be the principal? But I thought the principal was an old man. Well I had seen his photo on one of the school websites.

I thought. I took in a deep breath as a man stepped out the the black posh car. His tall frame, his dark brow hair, he was dressed in a grey suit.

I couldn't see further as they stepped inside the building. Wonder who is he? ,i couldn't care less. Ignoring the curiosity, in went back to my book.

The first horrible day of my third high school was finally over, I stepped out the doors and sighed. Our house was only minutes away from the school,so dad didn't have to come pick me up. I would rather walk than call him.

I was walking from the parking lot when I saw that familiar man with a grey suit walk out the the principal, this time his face was visible to me. As I kept walking his face finally came in view.

My god.

He was handsome, that was the first thing that came into my mind. Very much. I could see his perfect jawline, his perfect body, how the suit was a perfect fit on him, and when he turned, our eyes met.

I sucked in a deep breath as the cold, stormy silver eyes started to dig in mine. I felt shivers run down my spine. I gazed down and walked faster till I reached home.

I got ready to sleep just before closing my eyes. I remember those silver eyes.
Ignoring the urge to meet them again, I close my eyes and go to sleep.

~*~

I felt my eyes drop as the teacher spoke something stupid. I hated history from the bottom of my heart. The bell rang and I finally let out a sigh.

Finally!.

I stand up and walk to my locker. 2 days in this school and I haven't made a friend.

Anything new there girl?
It took a month for me to make friends in the last school. But then this happened. I still don't understand why‌ my dad accepts so many transfers.

To get away from those memories?
He should cherish them, not try to forget them.

I heard whispers and giggles from the girls behind me. I was pushed to the wall yesterday.
But I couldn't speak. Because I have no courage. I am a living dead for now.

The bell rang, and I moved to my next class.

I heard the sound of heavy rain and lightning from the hallways.
All the students either went in their friend's car or had their family member pick them up. I never called my dad. I knew it would be a burden to come all the way here. His company is 2 hours away.

I decided to walk home.
The rain finally slowed down, and I stepped out and walked to my house.
But just before I left the school grounds,it started raining heavily again

Dammit !!!

Not giving it another thought I started walking to my house. Looks like strom is gonna hit the area.

Well, I don't care. The wind slapped my cheeks as I struggled to walk faster.
I felt like an abandoned child on the road.

After 5 minutes, just as I exhale in delight of reaching the block, I see the huge chestnut tree fallen on the road. The road is blocked, and lines are blocking any other way of getting through to the other side of the road.

Many cars and people were standing near it. Some of them turned opposite side.

There was another route but it was way too long.
Almost 10 more minutes. I sigh in a frown, wondering what to do.
Well, the tree isn't gonna move, so I had to walk more.

After taking the other way, I saw a car slow down behind me. I increased my pace, but it followed me. I felt a knot in my stomach as to why the person was doing so.

The car honked, making me jump. I look back to notice a familiar car. The door opened from the driver's side.
"Ma'am, sir requested you to step in. He would like to help you since the weather seems quite harsh."

"Oh, I-no thanks, my house is just straight ahead."
"He insists, Please let us drop you off."

I was gonna politely reject, but the back door opened. My mouth hung open slightly before I closed it. The man was the same guy that I saw at school.
His silver eyes made me weak.
"Get in now," he commands
His voice held authority that almost made me shiver.

"It would be difficult to walk through these rains," he said.
Without thinking for another second, I entered his car. My breathing became fast as he sat beside me.

Well, there I went, ignoring stranger danger. But what was I to do? It was starting to rain and thunder.

My hands felt numb as the car started. His effect on me was too much to handle.
"What's your name, sweetheart? " He asked.
I felt myself shiver under his voice. His voice felt like it could never be ignored.

Or should not be ignored.

I gulped.
"Ava, " I whispered.
"Ava, pretty name," he commented. My name from his mouth seemed different.
"W-What's yours ?" I ask timidly.
He didn't respond soon.

I got embarrassed as I looked out the window. After a while, he spoke up.
"My name is Romano Fitz, and you can call me Roman."
I nodded. My house soon appeared, and I told the driver to stop. Roman stepped out as well. I thanked him, expecting a welcome, but he just kept staring at me.

"See you soon, sweetheart." his fingers brushed my chin as he laid a lingering kiss on my cheek.
I shudder as cold shivers go through my body.
Biting my lip,I look at him to see his jaw clenched.

Did I do something wrong?

His eyes felt like they held anger. He gave me one last look before walking in his car as the driver drove away. I hope I won't see him again; he seemed dangerous.
Yet I could still feel the heat on my cheek where his lips lay.
