Zach led me down an alleyway...I was scared but, he kept saying not to worry. It was a secret way to the place. I can't believe that I am following a stranger in a place I am not aware of. I hope the London people are safe...Well, I guess all people are different. When I thought I should maybe walk back, we walked up to a dolphin statue. I gasp

"What is this place?" I question

"Girl With A Dolphin, St. Katherine's Docks, I go here at night sometimes to think" Zach said

"I love it here," I said tugging on his arm

"Its so peaceful," He said sitting down me following his moves

"It is...Thank you" I said

"So you're alive still," He said looking into my eyes

"I guess I am. Thank you, Zach, for not killing me" I joke with a smile

"Anytime...I didn't notice before but, your eyes are beautiful. They look like an ocean of crystal water" He smile

I blush...Wow 

"Well Thank you, I can't say the same because your hoodie kind of shades it" I chuckle

"I-well-If I take it off please don't scream"He demands 

"Why would I scream?"

"Because of who I am," He said taking his hoodie off slowly

"You look fine...What is it I am supposed to freak out about?" I said

"Ouch" He chuckles

"No No No, I didn't mean it like that...I mean what is it that your scared that I'll tell people" I ask

"You don't know? You can't tell that I am-that I work at a coffee shop" He said making the last part go fast

"You don't want people to know you work at the coffee shop?" I question

"I make a mean coffee, You know those girls just want them" He jokes around

"Alright, Your secret is safe," I said 

We stayed quiet for the moment. The sun was coming up making the Girl with the Dolphin glow. I dozed off I think because Zach calls me.

"Claire...Wake up" He said

"Oh Sorry, Did I fall asleep?"

"Yes but, it's ok. We should head back, I better get back home" He said getting up offering me a hand

"Right, sorry" 

"Thank you for trusting me" He laughs

"Yes, Thank you for not killing me" I chuckles 

"Anytime, Shall we,"He said offering his arm

"Yes," I said 

We walked back and to the water fountain.

"Thank you, I better head home," I said

"Welcome, same here," He said

"Bye Zach," I said starting to walk away

"Wait, shall we meet again? I had a nice time" He yells quietly

"Yes, I would love too" I smile

"I promise not to kill you" He chuckled

"Ok" I laugh

"I will meet you where we met last...so I guess here tonight at 10 p.m" He replies

"Can't wait. Bye Zach" I said waving bye walking away

"Bye, Claire," He said walking away

I walked away back to my place, daydreaming about the walk and Zach. His voice and his figure. He is like the dream man. I like him...but, I can't like him because this is a girl trip not that it stopped the others. I looked at my phone...its dead. I hope no one called me. I got on a tram to take me closer to home...I got home and guess what I saw! I saw a police car outside of the house. I ran up to the house and opened the door.

"CLAIRE" Zoe shouts

"I am sorry my phone died. I was just looking around the city" I said hugging Zoe as Taylor walked up

"Don't walk off like that" Taylor said hugging me

"I won't," I said hugging them

"Sorry sir, These girls didn't mean to cause this trouble," I said

"It is alright, Please charge that phone of yours though," He  said

"I will," I said 

"Bye ladies," The police said 

"Bye," I said closing the door

"Where did you go?" Zoe asked

"We saw what we could see" Taylor said

"I met a friend and walked around the town," I said trying not to smile

"Male or Female?" Zoe asks

"Zoe!" Taylor said

"Male," I said walking to my room

"WHAT!?!" Taylor said running in  my room

"Out! I need to shower and I need to change for tonight..." I said pushing them out

"Tonight? A male and you?" Zoe said

"Yes, Now out," I said shutting the door

My girls! Haha, I walked over to the shower and turned it on. I got my outfit set out. I took a shower and did my makeup. I put on a white T, black leggings, salmon blazer, black flats, and put my hair in a bun. I curled the two pieces of hair that were on the sides of my face. I walked out and we wanted to go out. The girls kept asking who this guy was but, I wasn't going to say anything. We took a tram to the dock where the boats were. We took the boat across the Westminster Bridge. We took pictures from there we took a trolley to the Skylon Restaurant, Bar, & Grill. 

"Hi, Welcome to Skylon Restaurant, Bar, & Grill," The man said

"Hello, Table for 3 adults," I said

"Follow me please," He said

"Ok, Thank you," I said following

A few moments later

"Thank you," I said as we sat

"Can I get you guys a drink?" He asked

"Yes, I want...We want cocktails" Zoe said

"Coming right up," He said walking away

"How was late night?" I asked

"Magical, We danced...And kissed!!!" Taylor said

"Haha, Wow" I laughed

"But, not as WOW as Zoe," Taylor smirked

"What happened?" I asked

"We danced and drank...Let's not talk about it please" She said

"Hahaha, I guess your night was crazy" I laughed

"Here are your drinks, Anything to eat?" He asked

We ordered

"Thank you," I said

"Welcome," He said walking away

"What happened with this mystery guy?" Zoe asked
