I take pride in owning all of thses characters and ideas and thank the inspiration of all my guy friends who so ever has liked me.
Summary: Zaida and Taylor just graduated college and live together in a house as roomies. They're now looking for jobs and when they start looking, they find a few guys to go along. Maybe a little too many and that were into some bad stuff...
CHAPTER 5 Taylor was standing on the beach looking at the sunset and then at her watch. She glanced back and forth at the two things quite a few times. She was just about to leave when someone came behind her and put their hands over her eyes.
"Guess who," he said.
"The Easter bunny?" Taylor asked. He smiled and started leading her across the beach. "And where might you be taking me?"
"It's a surprise…"
"I don't like surprises."
"I think you'll like this one," he led her up a hill and into just the mouth of a cave.
"I must tell you that I've been everywhere on this beach before, nothing will surprise me," she felt him stop walking and stopped herself.
"Nothing will surprise you? Open your eyes…"
She opened her eyes slowly and saw a candle lit dinner set up on a blanket at the mouth of the cave. She gasped.
"I guess I went to too much trouble then."
"Why?" she turned to him and saw the light of the sunset shimmering in his eyes.
"Because I'm not one of those type of guys that just ask a girl out, I like to surprise them."
"Luke…" she was speechless.
He slowly closed the distance between them and took her hands in his grasp.
"Will you, Taylor Macabee, go out with me?"
She looked around and smiled and laughed sarcastically. "How could I say no?"
He kissed her and held her his grasp for an extra moment. "Shall we?" He led her to the candle lit picnic.
Zaida lay on a bed in someone's room. It was dark outside, she could tell by looking through the sliding deck door there was in the room. The curtains weren't closed.
She didn't hear any movement, 'Perfect time to escape in case he's a weirdo.'
She got up and was about to take a step towards the door when she got hit with dizziness and fell back on the bed. She put a hand to her forehead.
"You shouldn't be up," a voice came from the other side of the room. "Lay back down and get some rest," he said.
"I'm fine," she got up again and collapsed under her feet, but the man was there to catch her.
"I don't think you are," he picked her up and laid her back on the bed.
"Who are you? Where are my dogs? Where am I?" she questioned him immediately.
"My name's Noah Tucker, you're at my house a few miles out of town. And your dogs are bust digging up my backyard, to answer all of your questions."
"Miles! My head's pounding," Zaida put her hand up to her forehead.
"I'd say so, you had a pretty hard landing."
"What happened?"
He went to go get a cold rag and put it on Zaida's forehead. "Your dogs pulled you hard enough to make you flip over a table and almost land directly on your head. Fortunate for you, you didn't and your neck isn't broken."
Zaida winced at her headache. He took off the rag and lay his hand against her forehead for a moment.
"You're burning up. What's your name?" He needed to ask questions and keep her concentrated.
"Zaida…Micheals," she answered wearily.
"When's your birthday?"
"Umm… September 3rd…" Why was he asking her all of these questions? She winced again.
"What's today's date?"
"Umm…August…August…" she went out cold.
"Dammit," he said.
He got up and got a cold rag again and lay it on her forehead. "Just rest for now," he said softly.
