I guess what they say is true, the shy and calm girl falls in love with the reckless, but caring guy. I never thought or dreamed that I would do something so amazing yet harmful. All my life I was surrounded by fighting and shouting, but with him, it was magical.
him
I thought about him everyday. The one to save me from this wicked world. The one that would save me from this drought, one that would bring rain to the desert.

Sighing, I turn off my owl alarm clock. Waking up was always something positive to me, on some days. Ever since I was little my parents always fought constantly, then they would make up with sex, but when they did, I woke up early to get peace an quiet. Throwing my pure white covers off my body and making my bed. I pick up the throw pillows and place them on my queen size bed. I walk into my bathroom and brush my pearly white teeth and washing my mouth with mouthwash. I brush my long blonde curly hair and grab my knee length white dress and slip into it, over my undergarments. I tie my hair in a messy, yet pretty bun. I apply a little wing to my eyelids and mascara and pink lip gloss, then slip into some white vans.
I walk into the living room of my apartment and grab my brown leather bag and keys and walk out the door. I step in the elevator and press the button to the main floor. When I walk I see Bob holding the door open for a middle aged woman with her identical twins. I walk out the door and he smiles like normal, he really should get a better job, but what can a 65 year old man do?
I walk to my college classes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. My grandparents left a ton of money to my parents, but once they saw what parents were like with money, they left it to me in their will. When they died my world right then ended, but when I read the note they left for me, I finally let go. Shaking the memories out of my head, I continue down the road to my destination. I am currently studying to be vet for all house hold animals.
~2 hours of learning about dog insides later~
I walk the familiar path and see a café. I never had the time to go in, but today I do. I cross the street and enter the little café. I find a small booth and slide in. I take out my phone and textbook and paper and a pen, and started working on my assignments.
"What can I get you today?" A deep voice says. I look up and find possibly the most attractive man I've ever laid eyes on. His hazel eyes against his tan skin and curly hair, catch my eye, but his accent really does as well.
"Um, I'll take a turkey sandwich and water, please." I say and he smiles and writes it down on his note pad, before turning on his heals and walking away.
Every so often I feel his eyes on me and once I caught him staring. I hear a pair of feet shuffling towards me and someone slide in the seat across from me. My waiter.
"What are you studying?" He asked.
"Um, to be a vet." I said.
"I'm sorry I'm being creepy, my name is Ashton." He said giggling, making his dimples appear and stretching out his hand.
"Arizona," I say, shaking his hand, returning the smile.
"That's a nice name, may I ask why?" He asks.
"My parents, well they're all about the 70's," I say smiling and stifles a giggle, "What about your accent?" I ask.
"I came from Australia, I just wanted to start fresh somewhere, I moved here when I was about eighteen." he explained, leaning in on the table. The closer he is, the more I see his scruff around his chin and around his jaw line.
"How old are you now?" I ask, he couldn't be more than 25.
"I'm twenty, and I'll turn twenty one in July," he explains, "what about you?" He asks, cocking an eyebrow.
"I'm nineteen, turning twenty in May." I say and he smiles. He opens his mouth to say something, but the chef rings a bell, signalling Ashton that someone's food is ready.
"Hang on." He says and gets up quickly to retrieve the food. I see him place the tray on his broad shoulders and come back to me. He places the plate in front of me and says, "I'll let you eat now, you probably have homework." He smiles and turns on his heals.
After finishing my food and my assignments, Ashton brings the check and I pay. Looking at the bottom I see that he left a number, his number I assume, and when I look back him he smiles and waves, and so do I.
