"Twenty "I lie again
he leans in , our lips few inches away
he whispers into my ears "Good girls don't lie "
I gasp at the sensation
who is he?
"Who are you ?" I ask him
"Does it matter ?"
I'm running short of words to tell the beautiful stranger
"Your travelling solo and isn't it risky for your first time ?"
for a second my heart breaks
Does he work for my father ?
"I don't understand " my nervous voice hitting again
"Your scared to fly and it's your first time .I don't see anyone around to help you .So I'm sure your travelling solo unless you have someone to join you later " he smiles again
and my heart eases
"You can talk to me , I'm a good listener " he smiles again
I rest back
thinking for a second
well , I'm not sure what I'm going to do flying down
I planned for the escape and booking a flight ticket was a huge risk
my father will know where I am
I couldn't book a hotel so I have some decent money to figure things out
and now talking to this stranger isn't that dangerous as I compared to the risk I have already taken
"I wanted to see the world so I'm going alone .And I'm sure I'm old enough to handle things on myself "
he gives a stern nod at ny answer
I look away ,viewing the coulds pass by on the sky
its beautiful
he doesn't initiate another talk and I don't either
something about him feels surreal
he feels like a dream
before I know I'm outside the airport standing clueless, not knowing where to go
I don't have a phone
nor my laptop
I should ask the cab driver for some hotel nearby
and maybe I can figure rest things out
first buy a phone and a number
I repeat it in my head
"Where your staying ?"I hear his voice again
does he know ,in standing clueless
"Why ?" I ask him again
"Well , I stay at a hotel nearby .We could share the room so we can cut down some expenses "
he looks tensed , not sure about my answer
I take a look at him
white clean sneaker, ripper Jean's and a white tshirt hugging his muscles
why will such a beautiful man want me ?
okay I'm thinking too much
he is just showing me some pity
that's it
no big deal Cas
"What if your some kind of dangerous person ?" I ask him stupidly
he laughs "Well good luck Cassandra "
with that he puts his shades on ,covering those eyes as he walks past me
his brown hair messed and tied behind in roughly
"Wait "I run back
he stops and turns around crossing his arms
"Fine , we can share a room but remember I'm a black belt at karate and I know Marshall arts " I sound to be serious
he raises his hands in air and nods
"Agreed "
I smile at him
Vegas here, I come
We take a cab to a hotel
It's nothing fancy but guess what ?
Its perfect
Because this is my first hotel I'll ever be staying in
the room is small but not that small, it's okay to fit us
he's unpacking his stuff
and its safe to say I have got a crush on his beautiful face so I try not to act stupid
I try to compose myself so I don't behave like an teen but like an adult maybe I can woo him
isn't it destiny ,like God planned ?
I'll sit next to this stranger and boom
now we are sharing an hotel room
Money wasn't my problem ,I have some generous money hidden in my bag but me finding a new place was a problem
what if I end up in some dirty place or I don't get place at all ?
Yes ,that's why I'm here with Nick
atleast I know his name and he seems nice
"Done ?"
I raise my eyes, not knowing what he is asking
"Done staring at me ?" he asks again
a playful smile tugging under his lips
I look away quickly
"Too bad Cassandra, I have already caught you "
his stern voice sends chills to me
"I don't know what your talking about " I try to move past him
so I can lock myself in the bathroom and drown inside the tub
but he holds my wrist and pulls me back
I crash against his chest
his cologne is at new level
who is he , by the way ?
"I'll not let you run away "
he threatens
but there's a smirk on his face
"Then don't "
I challenge him back
"What do you want Cassandra?" his voice deep low like he's thinking
"Whatever your willing to offer "
fuck , I should have sounded like a slut
but I don't care
three days and I'm out
I'll head to New York
Yes but not on a plane
but by car , by road
by the time im taken back home by my father
I should have atleast accomplished all of my dreams
all my stupid dreams because I know back home this time I'll not be able to even step out
I doubt ,will my father cancel my college plan ?
I don't give a f**k
"Your a little girl , an innocent girl " his voice brings me back
I stare at him
"Who lie about her age "
shit
"So let me try again " he leans down
his nose touching mine
His eyes glaring at mine
"What do you want Cassandra?" he asks again
I pull away from his hold
I feel his eyes on me
I take some money and step out
i can't let him intimidate me
he can't say things to me
fuck him
he doesn't stop me but just watches me as i step out
