I took a look at my phone… it has been turned off…. Ugh damn!! I forgot to charge the battery today!!
“You haven’t told me your name yet…” he said and glanced at me.
“Ashley.” I said angrily, staring at him.
He had a cut above his left eyebrow, making him look badass.
I scanned his body… toned muscles, flexed biceps, tall… damn he was hot!!!
“Where do you live?” he asked, looking me up and down.
“Just take me a taxi.” I snapped at him.
He glanced at me again.
A police car showed up at the end of the street.
“Shit!!” he cursed.
“Go…” I said to him.
“I can’t leave you here, it’s not sa…”
“GO!!!” I cut him off and pushed him away.
“What are you doing?” he asked quizzically.
“Go!! They’ll catch you if they see you here!!” I shouted at him.
I knew deep deep inside that he hadn’t done something wrong...
He stared at me with his eyes wided open, pretty surprised by my actions.
“Be careful darling!” he said and disappeared in one of the alleys.
He was worrying about my safety?
Haha… a boy that basically lived in the streets and was about to rape me, was worried about my safety…. I smirked.
As the police car got near, I waved at them.

“Oh God sweetie you gave me a heart attack!!”
Aunt Margaret was stirring my tea.
My dad was talking to the cops that had dropped me home and I was sitting on my couch, playing with my hair trying to cover my hickey… which I guess it had gotten more sore and obvious by his recent bitting and sucking.
“I’m sorry…” I said to her.
She smiled and wiped her tears and handed me the tea.
“Are you okay, sweetheart?” my dad stepped into my room.
His voice was as tired as his eyes.
I felt so ashamed of myself.
“I’m fine, dad… I’m sorry….” I said and pouted.
“It’s okay …. Just… don’t go alone anywhere ever again… ” he said.
I nodded.
“By the way, I’m going on a trip tomorrow… won’t be home for a week. But don’t worry, Viola will take care of you… she’ll arrive tomorrow night….Good night sweetie.” He said and left the room.
“I’m not a child!!! I’m nineteen years old for god’s sake!! I can take care of myself!!” I said angrily.
Margaret smiled and stroked my head.
“He’s a father… you should understand that…”
I rolled my eyes and took a sip of my tea.
“Good night miss Colton.” She said and left the room, closing the door behind her.

I spent the next day thinking about Liam.
Does he love me?
Where does he live?
Why were the cops after him?
Why was he worried about me?
Why did Alex tell me that he was a trouble?
And the most important question was….
Would I ever see him again?
It was hard to believe that I missed him….
I mean, man I didn’t even know a thing about him and hadn’t even spent an entire day with him… how could I missed him… so much?
There were a couple of boys that I had a crush on and I really liked them, but the things that had for him, was something different and probably more than just a crush.
I called Nic and apologized for my last night’s disappearing.
After the lunch, I hit the pool and tried to relax and free my mind from everything…. Well…. From Liam to be honest…
While in the pool, I tried to think of something that could distract me from Liam.
How about a new look?
I thought to myself…. Hmm… sounds cool…
I decided to die my dark brown hair.
So I called Margaret to call the hair salon and make an appointment for the evening.

The sun had just set and I was sitting in the limo, looking at my light brown hair…. I didn’t look so different but I hated the new color… maybe it was because I wasn’t still used to it, huh?
I sighed and lifted my head up, looking out the window and that’s when I saw him again and this time, he wasn’t alone.
He was surrounded by a bunch of boys in one of the alleys…
Was he in danger?
“Stop the car!!!” I shouted at the chauffer.
“I’m afraid I can’t do that miss Colton.” He said.
“I said stop the fucking car!!!” I shouted, punching the window between us.
“I’m not allowed to…”
“Stop the car or you’re fired!!!” I said firmly.
He stopped the car and I got off.
I was wearing a dark blue top with a black jacket, tight black jeans and a pair of shiny black high heels so running wasn’t really a good idea.
As I was getting closer to the alley, I could hear some shouts and noises.
I picked on my pace.
I stepped into the alley and saw Liam cornered by four boys.
Two of the boys were holding him against the wall and one of them was talking to him.
His nose was bleeding.
Oh god… Had they beat him or something?
My breathing became heavy when I saw him that way.
One of them shouted at Liam and punched him in the face but he just spit out the blood and smirked at him that it just made that boy angrier and caused him to receive a kick in the stomach from that boy.
“STOP!!!” I screamed.
All of them froze for a moment and then they turned their heads, staring at me.
Liam frowned and closed his eyes when he saw me.
I was standing right in front of them with my hands closed in a fist on my sides.
They all looked so scary… I swallowed hard.
“Four against one is not fair!!” I said firmly.
They all looked at each other and then burst into laughter.
“Who is this chick, Fred?” one of them asked the other.
“I don’t know… haven’t seen her around… but she’s so bangable… ”
As Fred said that, Liam opened his eyes.
His look was livid and furious that sent shivers down my spine.
