Yes your totally right, I felt that when you walked into the restaurant as well "I said to him "my name is Jenna you save my life 10 years ago" His eyes widened as he stared at me. Shocked was evident on his face. But he was quiet for some time. Time stood still as we both looked at one another , not know what to say to each other. I broke the silence first telling him that " I never got the chance to Thankyou, you saved my life , you rescued me from my father's beatings.
When I woke up in hospital I asked for you but they said I wasn't allowed any visitors until I was out of the ICU and when I got better and transferred to a room , after two days they sent me to the orphanage and that was it. The nuns raised me taught me to read and right and got me this job.". He was watching me. Watching my every movement. He doesn't know me but he does. His presence makes me feel safe. After spending tens years in the orphanage which was my home, where I felt safe and now I'm really happy that I'm out on my own. "Jenna honey I'm leaving " stated Carla my assistant. As she walked out the door.Breaking the silence in the restaurant. There was only me and him now. I started to get up and walked behind the bar he's still sitting there following my every move. I said to him " I need to lock up you need to leave" he nodded his head and walked towards the door. Turning around he asked " what time do you start tomorrow," "five pm " I said. "I'll be here at four we can continue to talk more, " and walked out.That day ten years ago it was my first shift. I'd graduated from the police academy two weeks before. I'd just started my new job. Although my parents where not happy they preferred me to take over the Connor Entertainment Enterprise. I didn't want that. I didn't want to sit behind a desk all day making millions. I'm already set for life with what I have inherited from my parents being their only child and my father is also an only child. I'm not cut out to be a CEO dressed in suits all day. This is what I want. This is what direction my heart took me in. That day when I first saw her has never been erased from my mind or heart. I wanted to kill her father the bastard that hurt her. I ke
After closing the restaurant and letting my self into my apartment. I couldn't help not think about the detective. Sitting in the bathroom and removing my makeup, I stare at me self in the mirror. The scar is so visible and so horrible it's just a daily reminder of my life. Removing my clothes and hoping into the shower looking at my self in the mirror and seeing my darkened bruises and scars on my body. I just wish I can erase those nine years of my childhood from my mind. But if I do I would never of met my saviour. Max. Getting into bed I drift off to sleep thinking about him and our meeting tomorrow. I would have to get into work earlier to prepare my makeup routine and find something suitable to wea
A couple of staff were already in the restaurant getting ready for dinner and Max was patiently waiting at the door. With a smile on my face and a "hi", I let him in.. He returned my smile and greeting. I closed the door behind him and walked towards our table. I picked a secluded table with not much lighting and away from staff. As we sat down I went and got two coffees we with both have black mugs of coffee so that was easy. Max was staring at me I can feel his eyes. He is such a handsome man tall tanned deep blue eyes. Today he was wearing blue denim jeans a T-shirt and leather jacket he looked like a model with his messy blond hair. I feel myself flushed and quickly removed those thoughts from my mind. Max couldn't sleep last night thinking about her and thinking dirty thoughts he could not believe the sexy dream that woke him up in a sweat involving Jenna. He got you early went for a jog came back had breakfast got dressed and ready. Wai
Then when he touched my hands and then my chin then kissed me I felt a sensation that I couldn't explain. After he left I sat there for what felt like ages. It took a table booking to get me off my concentration of Max.Sunday came around so quickly. Waking up and showering I sat I front of my cupboard deciding what to wear. It's thirty five degrees today going to be so hot. I hate going out on hot days, I hate showing off my arms and legs. I have nothing to wear. The faded bruises and scars are so visible to the eye I hate people feeling sorry for me. I decided to wear my black denim jeans, white skivvy to cover the scar underneath my chin, red vest and sneakers. I straightened my hair then applied my make up. I have never applied makeup on before in the heat, hopefully it will stay on all day. As soon as the bell rang I took my bag and went downstairs. When I opened the door he greeted me with a smile and stunned
As he came to pay the bill he said "I have a surprise for you ". I was so excited I've never had a surprise before. We made our way out to his car. It was a beautiful black two door Mercedes. He opened the door for me, as I sat on the beautiful leather chair I couldn't help but admire everything in the car. It smelt like money. When he sat in he turned to me and said " Do you like " "I love " I giggled. He laughed as he was turning on the car. As we made our way onto the road I asked him "where are we going?" "Not telling its a surprise " he said. I relaxed back in the car and listening to the music I've never been around this area. I was eager to find out where we were going. As soon as he pulled into the parking he saw my stunned face. He had taken me to the zoo. I couldn't believe it. I was so excited I couldn't wait to get out of the car and inside seeing all the animals. Max bought tickets and we went through the gates. Four hours later with lots of photos we
" Jenna your quiet " he said I didn't know what to say. "When can I see you again? I don't want to wait till next Sunday". He parked the car and turned to face me looking up I didn't realise we were at my apartment. I picked my words carefully turning in my seat to face him and said " Max today was the best day of my life, no one has done or given me a quarter of what you have. I don't think we should continue. It's wrong and I'm not sure I can give you want you want. I'm not ready, my life is a mess, my head is messed up. " Not reliesing that a tear slipped down my face, until he lifted my face towards him and wiped them, he bent his face towards me and kissed both my eyes then the scar from under my eye to my ear. I didn't move I couldn't look up at him embarrassed. I knew he had seen it and felt it. " I wish I could have five minutes with the bastard that did this" he whisperedbefore he bought his lips to mine, kissing me roughly. &nb
Max sat in the car after she left. He new he scared her. As soon as he saw the scar on her face he knew why she puts so much gunk on her face. He couldn't really see it but he felt it. Today was amazing. Being with her holding her hand. He wanted more but she wasn't ready he will just keep patient with her till she is.Max woke up early the next morning, getting ready for work he debated wether to go passed Jennas apartment or just call her and see if she's ok. In the end he sat down at the kitchen table and pulled out his phone. " Good-morning, how are you today?" he said. "Good-morning" she replied. As she was sitting down for her breakfast, all night she couldn't stop thinking about Max and when she woke up she was dreaming of the kiss they shared and now he's calling her. " I'm fine how are you, are you at work" she replied. " I'm great, just getting ready for work." There was silence from both ends before he answere
His only words were " I'm picking you up tomorrow at nine we're going shopping for a few dresses" and he left. I kept watching him till I could see no more. The phone still ringing I closed the door and went to answer. Later I would have time to think. Spending all night thinking about the shopping and the stress of it all. I need to be sure of what to buy how to cover my self up. How to cover my scars. I decided to wear something that I have from work, for the twenty first birthday. I will not let him see my body my scars my faded bruises which have never left me. Thatnight before going to bed I sent him a message saying " Max, Thankyou for the offer to go shopping with you. Unfortunately I can't I have too much to do as we were short staffed tonight. I already have something pretty to wear, please don't waste your money on me. I see you soon if not then I'll see you on Saturday" It was late and Max was sitting at his d
