Stranger I fell for.. (1)

Bright sunny morning, the golden velvet rays torched towards the city moving lazily, they gathered their strength and lit up the sky. Birds were chirping, the city sparkled at the view of the river reflecting a million crystals as a reflection on them.

Another morning for Chase, his usual morning started by a song playing in his ears every morning. The song was kinda personal, none of his friends knew he loved this genre of music too.. The Alarm he set was this song "Love walked In".. He shook his head and buried his face under the pillow trying to shake off the music without having to search for the phone.. "Ah, shut up" he groaned in his sleepy voice and finally gave up shutting the music down and stretched like a little kitten arching his back and yawning. He sat up the edge of the bed and rubbed his sleepy eyes and wore his slippers and pulled up his shorts and T-shirt and his socks, lacing his shoes he went to freshen up and combed his hair right. He plugged his ipod earphones in his ear and locked the house tight and ran down the flight of stairs. Chase was a handsome guy, tall, fair, very well educated, angular features, Honey Brown eyes, well mannered and very social. He lived alone, because he chose to. He had broken up recently, the girl apparently was over his love, was that even an excuse to break up? He was now moving on, keeping happy with himself and his circle of friends.. He played the guitar, did his cooking.. he had an amazing grin, probably any girl could fall for him just the way he treated them, chivalrously. He was very grounded, no arrogance, but a lot of trust issues ever since he broke up.

He loved the run along the side of the banks of the river, no one usually bothered this early to run on the pavement for a morning jog, but he liked spending time with himself, focusing on things that matter and music he loved pumping in him as he ran on the grey pavement along the river .. The only thing separating them was the huge fence which was of course a precaution laid.

He ran a while till he felt his phone annoying him for a long time, he knew who it would be "Noel" he exclaimed even before he saw the screen and flung it open and stopped running and caught a breath "Hey man" he said, the voice across the phone said "Chase my Man, don't tell me I caught you in action" he was laughing hard. Chase shook his head and slid his hand inside his pocket and leaned of the fence as he spoke looking at the sunrise "Is this your idea of an early morning hello, do you need me to get you something on my way to classes?" He inquired. "Chase You always .. I can't believe you think I call your for favours man." He corrected "Well Yeah, could you get some a bunch of lilies for Lidia? I completely forgot it's been a year today and she'd totally whack me if I show up with nothing" He said. Chase was amused and shook his head as he grinned "I got your back, Noel" just as he started turned and press the call dead he bumped into someone and fell on the ground with a thud and cussed under his breath. "You crazy?" he argued as he got up and saw a girl trying to get up and he bit his tongue "Oh, I'm sorry Ma'am I didn't realize... " He broke off and extended a hand to help her up.

"Oww, Oww.. Jesus!" She complained as if she were a kid. "Awh Man" she exhaled and checked her scraped elbow and facepalmed. "Miss" Chase still standing offering his hand .. "I'm sorry". She looked at him  with her hazel eyes, her hair across her eyes and her lips parted  and frowning, her cheekbones highlighting her facial structure, her skin the color of honey milk. She smelled like peppermints. "That's alright, I didn't see you either" she grabbed his hand and stood up. It took Chase a minute to react to that as he saw her tiny figure and heard her silky voice. "Oh My God are you Ok Mr.?" She inquired demanding since Chase forgot how to speak. "Uhm Yeah.." he swallowed hard and she shrugged "Ok then .. Have a good day" she waved him bye and ran to the other direction with her tiny bag across her back. Chase stood there watching her go, his eyes still wide and open tracing her figure as she ran.. He stood there for a while till he felt his phone ringing again and parted his eyes painfully from her and to the screen and walked again glancing back but she was gone ...
