Dark (Remington Leith)

'Remington'

Taking a seat across from Cara I had the perfect view of Remington. Man it felt great to know his name. Remington. I was practically drooling. 'God keep yourself together Kay!'

"Oh my god Kay your cheek. Did Mickey do that to you? I'm gonna fucking kill that prick!" I must say, I admired how much Cara hated Mickey, it's something we related on.

"Shhh. Keep it down. Not everyone needs to know," she didn't mean to speak loudly she has such a passionate hatred for that prick. "He hit me, as you can see. So I packed my shit and bolted. I can't go back there ever, he will kill me."

She understood exactly what I meant. Unfortunately for her she had witnessed a similar encounter before. I ended up staying with her for a couple days. "I'm so sorry Kay. You don't deserve this shit."

"Could I crash with you for a while?" I had no where else to go. I would be homeless.

"Kay... I, I'm sorry but you can't. Some shit went down with my family. I had to sneak out as it was," she sounded so sincere. I know it wasn't her fault. She would do practically anything to help me, we're like sisters.

I look up from Cara to check if Remington was still there but he was gone. Ugh, now who am I going to stare at? I pulled out my phone,
"I have an idea."

"What is it?" Fuck I said it aloud.

"Don't worry."

I got up Remingtons number and sent him a text.

'Hey it's Kay, from the cafe. Are you busy tonight?'

There was just something about this guy that drew me into him. Maybe it was the way he dressed? The way he spoke? Fuck he was hot. I must have had hearts in my eyes because Cara spoke,

"You got his number."

"What?" I was a bad liar.

"Don't lie to me. You got his fucking number."

*buzz*

Remington: Why hello there love. I'm free. Why is that?'

He called me love. So sweet, man I'm under his thumb already and I've seen him twice.

'Well, I cant exactly go home... Wanna go somewhere with me?'

I'm not usually this out there, I don't even know this guy.

"Okay, okay, I got his number," I surrendered to her curious look.

"I knew it! How?" She was so happy, it's made me giggle.

"I walked past him before you arrived and he grabbed me to question what happened to my cheek. And he basically gave me his number incase I needed anything."

"Awwwwwwwwwwwww. That's so cute. Kay has a cruuuuuush!"

"Shut up," I nudged her.

*buzz*

Remington: Yeah sure. Meet at the park just up the road from the café at midnight?

This could go so many different ways. He could be a murderer? I'd be dead meat if I went home though so either way... I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

'Sounds like a plan. See you there.'

11:50PM was displayed on my phone.

"Well I'm sorry but I have to go Kay. If they see I'm gone they'll-" I cut her off.

"Go Cara it's fine. You don't have to explain it."

As I finish my sentence my phone buzzes violently. Remington sent me a smirk, I feel myself become flustered. Was he flirting with me?

"Have fun with..." she dragged the last letter as if to question what she should call him.

"Remington. His names Remington," I couldn't help but smile. Such a beautiful name.

"Remington. Right, have fun with that. He's hot!" She laughed and I couldn't help but to join.

We hugged and then she left. And I wasn't sad or worried about where I would go next, I was intrigued. I finally have a chance to get to know this mysterious man. Something new... someone new.
