Siren Song

She had spent extra time primping and painting herself into a flawless appearance for her first day. She spent so long that she had over shot her time zone.

Her long, thick, dark brown hair, which hung almost to her hips, was pulled into a ponytail with loose curls at the end.

She bit her shapely red lips, and her deep blue eyes reddened at the thought of messing up her golden opportunity.

'No I can't be late, Justin worked too hard to get me this! The pay is good too, plus it's close too home. This is too good to mess up!

'I'm so screwed she thought!' as she gritted her teeth, pumping her arms and legs, willing her body to go that much faster.

Sweat soon started running down her face, and her hair flew wildly, ruining all her morning's efforts.

The blazing heat of the L.A. afternoon was wearying her though and at the next block she started to slow to catch her breath.

As she hustle- walked down the street one hand pressed to the stitch in her side, a car started to pull up slowly beside her.

Instantly she was wary at this action. It usually meant no good in this part of town, especially as there was not a lot of other people in the area.

She prepared to start sprinting again just in case, or beat someone with a Nokia, when a man hurriedly stepped out of the drivers seat.

When she saw who it was she felt almost as if the sky had exploded.

'What was he doing here? How did he find me? Why?'

Her breathing which had been coming jaggedly stopped completely as she stared at the man who stood the beside the open car door.

The sun gleaming down on his bronze hair, illuminating his dark eyes that stared at her, and his beautiful kissable lips. Those lips she missed so much but also despised.
