I’et out of here Da I have to do a double check, so I use the railing as aYes, I found one I pull it out, taking the extra strands of hair off it, then swing et it into a ponytail, I pull outthe cauy staring at me There’s no way I can look away

He’s gorgeous in a grey suit with a white shirt and pink tie Dae, and I blush hard I’m sure my already heated face reddened up quickly He winks at ht there in front of a hundred people The beach is always busy, so it’s a that our view hadn’t been interrupted The man stands up and uys especially older men, he’s an adult, and I’m still in my teens He’s the most attractive man I’ve ever seen Seriously, the superhero celebs don’t have anything on him when it comes to my body’s interest I want him, but he’s probably married and a total bastard I lower my phone, and that’s when a creep comes up and yanks it out of my hand I turn around to chase after hiuy A violent expression crosses the hot guy’s face, then he straight clocks the thief in the jaw, sending hiround

He pulls out his pocket handkerchief and wipes offup tothat scu et a better look at hireyish-blue that pop with the color of his darker brown hair that’s cut a little long, but the sides are tri back, and instinctually I want to rub ht to his forly intense I feel like I’ about hiht

“I should not have let hiet away,” he states “But I could not allow you to be around such a creature”

“It’s okay I didn’t want to go through the whole police report and stuff like that anyway”

My phone pings, and it’s a text frory eht back I’m on my way

“Um…bye” I turn around on my heels and ripes, “What took you so long?”

“You won’t believe it,” I say, dragging her into the café
