Elena's POV

Driving to Ipswich from Boston is confusing, I was supposed to arrive an hour ago but no luck yet. This is so not my day.

My mom had been serious when she said that we were moving. What an argument that had been. I refused to move and stayed with my dad for a while but eventually I found myself missing my baby brother, Connor. So I decided to suck it up and drive to Ipswich, start my new life you could say.

My phone started ringing, it was my mom. "Hey mom, what's up?" I said.

"I'm just checking in, are you ok?" concern etched in her voice.

"I'm good, just got a little lost is all but I think I found my way, don't worry I'll be there soon." I was usually quite good with directions but not today.

She replied, "Phone me if you get lost again."

"Sure thing" and then closed my phone and put it on the seat next to me.

As I turned my vision back to the road I saw a cliff about 5 metres away and I was about to go over it. I felt my body pump up into adrenaline mode and tried to steer my car back towards the road but the front of my car went over the edge. My survival training kicked in, so I climbed to the back seat as quickly as I could and started kicking out the rear window.

After about 4 or 5 kicks, the glass broke and I slowly climbed out the window. I breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed for a second once I got out of the car but then my car started falling off the cliff and brought the ground, and me along with it. I tried reaching for the ground above my head but it was no use, I started falling. All of a sudden I felt something strong grab my arm and it started pulling me up.

Next thing I knew, I was on solid ground and my heart was pumping so fast. Someone was holding me as though life depended on it. It felt safe. I looked up to see one of the hottest guys I have ever seen in my life. He had short brown hair, was taller than me and he had a concerned look on his face but what caught my attention was his eyes. They were black as night.

"What happened to your eyes?" I asked,

"Nothing" he replied, confusion showing on his face.

"They're pitch…" he looked away from my gaze and when he brought his eyes back up to mine they were blue. "Your eyes looked…never mind" I said, blushing to the roots of my hair. I wondered what I'd just seen.

He cocked his head to one side and surveyed me. Then his face cracked into the naughtiest grin I've ever seen. I blushed again.

"I'm Tyler, Tyler Simms" he said still grinning.

"I'm Elena Roberts," I smiled. "Thanks for saving me by the way." I was so grateful.

"Sure no problem, can't say the same for your car though."

"Oh damn, that's going to be an issue when I get home." I put my head in my hands.

He took my hands away from my face and smiled. "It's going to be ok. Are you hurt?"

"Thanks," I smiled at his concern for me. I looked down and tested my arms and legs out. I felt a little sore. "Well I seem ok but there will definitely be some bruises tomorrow. Could I ask you for a favour?"

"Sure, what do you need?" he asked,

"Well since my car took a nosedive off that cliff, could you take me to Ipswich?"

"You don't seem that freaked out that your car went over but sure I can take you there, it's just five minutes away."

"Let's just say that this kind of thing has happened to me before." I laughed remembering what happened to my last car.

He smirked at my comment, "Well come on let's get going." He said. We hopped inside his Hummer and drove off.
