Chapter 1
Selena's POV
I ran away. I ran away from everything. From the big house, to my snobbish parents, to my so-called friends and disgusting ex-boyfriend, everything was behind me now. I couldn't take the car, they could trace that because it was under their name. So I took my bike. I packed two duffel bags, tossed them in the baskets on the side of my bike, locked the baskets, and rode off in the middle of the night, leaving a note saying I was never coming back. I rode my bike through New York, wondering what I was going to do next. Except for the 2,000 dollars at the bottom of my bag, I was broke and homeless. But I wasn't going back! Never!
Suddenly a light bulb went off in my head. My mother's brother, Angelo or Angel lives around here. Maybe I could find him. Wait a minute, what the hell am I thinking? Alphabet City was HUGE! I'd never find him in here. My stomach began to growl. I had to find something to eat. I stopped my bike outside a place called the Life Café. This looks nice, I thought. I parked my bike in the bike rack, locked it, and went into my bag and got about 50 dollars in tens out. That should be enough, I thought. I need to get a job as soon as I can. I took a deep breath, opened the door and stepped into the café.
This was basically Selena's intro. The Bohemians come in during the next chapter. I have a surprise pairing for Selena. You'll just have to wait and see. And while you are waiting, please review! I love feedback!
