Chapter One

The door of a midnight black Lamborghini Diablo swung open in front of the Casual Diner and out stepped Ebony. She was about 5'5 with long blonde and red braids, and a curvy body. She wore red lipstick, a red spaghetti strapped tank, and black stretch jeans that clung to her hips. She walked into the coffee house and saw Lex trying to court another unwilling woman, and Salene enjoying a mocha with her new boyfriend Pride.

Ebony took her usual seat in the back, she sat there when she was off from working at the diner, and ordered a double espresso with milk and sugar, while she sat reading the newspaper. "Hmmm? They've found a cure for that new virus going around. Well, good for them". Ebony sat there sipping her espresso when she happened to look up. She saw a tall, handsome man walk in. He had shoulder length dirty blonde hair, and blue eyes. He looked at her as he walked to his seat and flashes her a smile. Unable to resist, Ebony began to blush and she turned away before smiling. She looked on as he took his seat and began reading the newspaper article that she was just reading just a moment ago. She was somewhat nervous for being in the same room with him. But, being the straight forward to girl she is, she worked up the nerve to go and say "hi" to him.

So she stands up and walks over to his table. "Hello. My names Ebony. Sorry if I disturbed you, but I haven't seen you around here before. Are you new?" The man looked at her and smiled, "Hello Ebony. My name is Bray. You're not disturbing me at all, and yes I am new here. Is it that easy to tell?" Ebony giggles, "No, it's not that noticeable. I was just asking because I have never seen you around here before. And I work here part time so I would have noticed you before. Well, I'll leave you to your paper. You have a nice day." Ebony flashed a smile and began to walk away when Bray jumps up. "WAIT!.......You don't have to go. I am kinda lonely around here and I don't know many people. Maybe one day you could show me around the city, I'm sure you know it pretty well," Ebony in sheer panic turned back around, and shrugged "Sure." Bray smiled, "Cool, um, I'm gonna give you my number, and you can just call me when you're free". So Bray took a napkin from the table and wrote his number down. Ebony smiled, "I'll be sure to do that. Um, I'm gonna give you my number as well, so you can call me when you want." Ebony tore off a section of the napkin and wrote her number down as well. Bray smiled and folded the napkin up and put it in his pocket, "I will definitely call you." Bray gathered his things and walked with Ebony outside. "Wow! That's your car?" Ebony laughed, "Yeah, my dad bought it for me last year. He's the head of the Reynolds Software Company. But, I don't find it right to brag." Bray, surprised, nodded and walked to his BMW. "Well I guess I'll see you later?" Bray said as he turned around to face Ebony. "You bet." Ebony said.

As Bray drove off Salene came outside and looked over Ebony's shoulder at the napkin in her hand, "Bray huh?.......Sounds like a nice name". Ebony spun around, gave Salene a mean look, and then got into her car and drove off. When Ebony got home she said hi to her mother and went upstairs. As she walked to her room, she could hear her older sisters Siva and Java chatting on the phone, as usual. She walked into her bedroom, and got into her nightgown, ready to go to sleep. She gazed out of the window, that was right above her bed. She slowly slipped into a deep sleep, with Bray's number on her night stand.
