Chapter 2

Alex woke up at 6:00 am and he jumped into the shower. He towel dried him-self off and dressed into a black shirt, jeans, and put on his sneakers. Before he left his room, he put on his finger-less gloves and grabbed his bag. He headed downstairs for a quick bite to eat before he left. He found Marci and Albert, his housekeepers, making breakfast. Marci and Albert had been married for as long as his parents had, he assumed. They were the only family he had left, since his parents died. They had raised him as their own, along with their other four kids. Now that he was eighteen years old they treated him like the master of the manor. He still respected them and treated them like family though. He knew of their desire to retire, but they wanted to wait until he graduated first and had someone else to live with. They didn't want him to be alone in the house.
Alex had the urge to move to Colorado last year when his friend Johnny came back from a spring break visit there. Alex had seen in Johnny's past a five foot, black haired, brown eyed goddess. When Alex asked about it, Johnny simply said he wanted to meet her, but she was impossible to find after the one time he saw her. "Who and where is this beautiful girl? I've got to meet her." He thought to him-self.
