The wind started to blow and Dawn didn't take her eye's off of the young adult's as the young adult's didn't take their eye's off of her.

It was like they were enemie's,except that they all didn't know one another.

Dawn was determined to talk to the young adult's,but she didn't know what to say to them as she was as quiet as a mouse.

"Well,what do we have here?" Said a dark,haired adult which was a young man.

Hmm? Dawn exclaimed softly and that she stared at the dark,haired adult.

My name is Hunter Rodriguez,it's very nice to meet you.

Oh,um,it's very..nice to meet you.

Hunter Rodriguez was a tall,young man with dark,Brown hair to match his dark,Brown eye's.

He was very handsome and tall,just like Austin.

Hunter was wearing a Black and Blue shirt and that he was wearing pant's as he was also wearing Black shoe's.

What's your name? Hunter asked Dawn.

Huh? This made Dawn exclaim softly and that she looked at him by surprise. My name?

"Yeah,your name. What are you,deaf?" Snapped a male with Brown hair.

"Matthew,be nice!" Declared a young female with long,Brown hair.

O-Oh,uh-- My name is Dawn,Dawn Flores.

Dawn,such a beautiful name for a woman such as yourself. Hunter said,while he was checking out and eyeing Dawn.

This made Dawn cringe and feel uncomfortable as she wanted to leave now.

Since you all know my name,what are your name's?

I would glady tell you my name. Allow me to introduce myself,my name is Lexi Porter,it's very nice to meet you. Lexi said to Dawn,with a friendly and nice smile.

Oh,hello. It's very nice to meet you.

Lexi Porter had long,Brown hair with Hazel eye's.

To her,Dawn thought that she looked like a a good girl and a rebel girl.

She almost looked like Avril Lavigne and she was cool.

Lexi was wearing a Black shirt and jean's as she was wearing Black shoe's to match her shirt.

Why in the hell do we have to tell this girl all of our name's? Matthew turned to look at his friend's.

Because we met and it's very rude to not to tell her about our name's. Hunter confirmed him.

Yeah,babe. It's rude and oh,yeah. I almost forgot,you don't have any manner's. Lexi admitted.

The hell?!

Dawn looked the other way and that this was kinda embarrassing that this young adult was acting this way and he sure doe's act like a kid,too.

You sure do act like a wild animal when someone snap's or talk's back at you,i guess i can't control you.

Your girlfriend's right,you do get mad when someone talk's or snap's back at you.

Tch,whatever. That's not true...Hey.

Hmm? Dawn exclaimed and turned to look back at the young adult's and as she did,she saw that Matthew was looking at her.

If you didn't know,the name's Matthew,Matthew Lane.

Matthew Lane had Brown hair and dark,Brown eye's.

He wasn't as tall as Austin or Hunter,but what did Lexi even see in him?

Matthew was wearing a Red shirt with Black pant's as he was wearing Black shoe's.

It's very nice to meet you all so far. Dawn smiled and that she looked at another female and male.

Allow me to intruduce yourself,my name is Vander,Vander Wright. It's very nice to meet you. Vander smiled as he looked at Dawn.

Vander Wright had long,Brown hair with dark,Brown eye's.

He was wearing Black pant's and shirt and on top of that,he was also wearing Black shoe's,too.

He was as tall as Austin and Hunter as he was friendly as well.

I love your hair,it's so pretty. Vander said to Dawn.

O-Oh,thank you! Dawn started to blush in embarrassment and that Matthew rolled his eye's.

Dawn saw that a female adult was looking at her and she looked back at her as the two female's looked at one another.

Hello,what's your name? Dawn asked the young adult.

The female adult looked at all of her friend's and that they all gestured her to talk to Dawn.

M-My name..my name is Winona William's. I-It's very nice to meet you!

Oh,it's very nice to meet you as well.

Winona William's had short,Brown hair with dark,Brown eye's.

Dawn thought that she was so cute and innocent like a four year old.

What bring's a beautiful creature such as yourself into this forest? Hunter asked Dawn all of a sudden.

Oh,well,uhh--

Were you expecting to meet someone here? Lexi guessed the answer for her.

N-No,that's not it!

Hmm,it sure doe's sound like it...Matthew muttered softly and that he eyed Dawn.

Man,ever since we all started talking,all these young adult's do is just stare at me like i came into their territory or something. It's so damn annoying.

Are you waiting for your boyfriend,sweetie? Vander asked Dawn,while he was narrowing his eye's at her.

What?! This made Dawn's eye's wide a bit and that she started to blush in embarrassment. No,of course,not! I don't even have a boyfriend!

Really? Winona asked,while she was stunned. But you look like you might like someone,am i right?

I-- Dawn took a deep breath,let it all out,as she tried to stand her ground. I don't need to answer that.

No,no. Winona doe's have a point on what she said to you,but is it true? Hunter asked as he narrowed his eye's at Dawn. Do you like someone right now?

I-I don't want to-- While Dawn paused her word's,she thought about Austin. She thought about his cute smile,him acting so nice to her,and that she couldn't get him out of her mind. Why? Why am i thinking about him all of a sudden at a time like this? He-He doesn't mean anything to me and we're only..just..stranger's...That's all we'll ever be...

The young adult's were waiting for Dawn to say something and that the young woman didn't say anything as she just stood there,not saying a word.

It's okay,if you don't wanna-- Lexi started to assure Dawn.

This girl is so easy to see through,we all know that you like someone. End of story. Matthew crossed his arm's over his chest and that he smiled.

Actually,that's clearly none of your business. Dawn finally spoke and that she glared at everyone.

Huh?! Matthew glared angrily at her as he gritted his teeth. Oh,i see how it is. It finally spoke.

I happen to have a name,i can clearly see that you can't handle your anger and you can yourself an adult? Or should i say man? That is,even if your a man.

Vander started to laugh a little loud and that he was smiling,while Winona was looking the other way shyly.

Hunter looked at Dawn by surprise by how her attidude changed all of a sudden.

What the hell are you all just standing around for?! Help me out! Matthew snapped at everyone. Are you all just gonna let her talk to me like this?

Pretty much! Vander replied quickly and Winona stayed quiet as she still didn't say anything.

She doe's make a good point. Lexi pointed out and that she tried her best to hold in her laughter. I don't even know if i see you as an adult or a man,either.

Tch,whatever! I don't need your sorry asse's to help me,i can handle this myself.

Matthew then started to walk toward's Dawn and this wasn't going to be pretty.

Dawn's eye's wided a bit and then,she slowly started to back away from Matthew and as she did,she exclaimed and that she hit her back on a tree as she looked around to see if she could escape,but she couldn't because Matthew was getting closer and closer to her.

Matthew,wait. Hunter called out to his friend. She didn't mean what she said.

Oh,no. I got this,i wanna hear what she has to say about me again.

The young woman was frozen in fear and then,she closed her eye's as she waited for him to come up to her.

While Dawn had her eye's closed,she started to shake and then,she slowly opened her eye's to see that somebody was shielding her from Matthew as she knew who it was.

It was Austin.

Austin...Dawn thought,while looking at him still.

Wh-What the hell are you? Matthew then backed away only a few step's as he looked at him. What are you doing?

I should be asking you that,what are you doing?

Well,you see--

Were you going to try to hurt her?

Yes! Lexi shouted,while she had her arm's crossed over her chest.

Stay out of it!

You know how Matthew he,he's like a wild animal when he doesn't get his way. Vander admitted and that he told the truth.

You believe me,don't you?

No,i don't believe you at all,Matthew. I know how you are when you get mad.

He know's this guy? Dawn thought and that she looked the other way. I didn't know that...

Are you okay? Austin asked as he turned to look at Dawn.

Y-Yes,i'm okay.

Winona looked at Austin and Dawn as she didn't know what was happening.

I believe you owe my friend an apology. Austin said as he turned to look at back Matthew.

Wait,you know her? Lexi blinked a few time's.

Of course,i do. I'm her boss and i'll be working at the public library while my uncle is taking care of his wife.

Ohh,i totally forgotten all about that. I am so sorry that our friend tried to hurt you,Dawn. Vander apologised to her.

Dawn smiled nervously and Hunter didn't say anything as Winona didn't say a word as well.

You've got to be fucking kidding me here. You can't be friend's with her!

I can be friend's with anyone and you can't control me or my life. Come on,Dawn. I'll walk you back.

Okay...

Austin and Dawn both started to walk together out of the forest as everyone else watched them both leave.

I like her,she seem's so awesome and nice to hangout with. Lexi admitted and then,she frowned at Matthew. What the hell is wrong with you? You could have hurted her,you asshole!

Hey,i'm not an asshole and that woman isn't nice! I can't believe you didn't even stand up for your own man!

But your not a man,your a man child!

Lexi and Matthew were both arguing at each as Vander smiled to himself.

I have a funny feeling that we'll be able to meet her again. Vander said,while he had his arm's crossed as he was still smiling.

Hunter and Winona still hadn't said a word as they were quiet.

Hunter was quiet because he didn't know that Austin knew Dawn and Winona was quiet because it looked as if Austin might like Dawn.

Austin...Winona thought to herself and that she had a concerned look on her face,while she looked down at the ground.

Son of a bitch! Matthew growled softly and that he punched a tree a little hard as it made his hand ache a little. That damn,bitch...How dare she talk back to me? I can see that it can talk,after all whenever someone make's fun of her.

"That was foolish of you to do that,you know." Said a familiar voice.

Matthew exclaimed softly as he saw Hunter leaning his back up against a tree. Hunter! I-I'm sorry,your right...It was foolish of me to do that. But still...!

Still,you shouldn't have done that to Dawn.

Huh,what do you mean by that?

I don't know,but there's something about her that smell's so..familiar to me...

What on earth are you saying?

I'm saying is that..i want to get to know this woman a little bit more,i want to know all about her...

Hunter narrowed his eye's and that he smiled.

The wind started to blow and Dawn was walking right beside Austin as the two of them were both walking side by side still.

The two were both out of the forest and now they were down by the beach as the dock's were near,too.

While the two were both walking side by side on the beach,Austin stopped walking and so did she.

Ah..Dawn exclaimed softly and that she looked his way.

Are you okay?

He then turned toward's her way to look back at her.

Y-Yeah! Dawn continued to look at him and that she saw that he was looking at her. I'm okay,but uh,how did you know that i was in the forest?

W-Well,i was--

Were you stalking me?!

What? No,of course,not!

Then,how did you know that i was in the forest?

Because i was at this beach.

Huh?

Yeah,i came to this beach because i wanted to read and walk out here.

O-Oh,i-i'm sorry..I-I didn't know...

Dawn felt bad for asking Austin that kind of question and that she tried to change the subject.

I didn't know he was into reading and walking. Dawn thought to herself and that she was checking him out as her cheek's were a little Red. That doe's explain why he's so muscular...

It's okay,your fine. But,i wanna ask you something.

Y-Yes?

Why were you in the forest?

When Austin asked Dawn that question,she looked the other way as she took her eye's off of him.

Oh,why? W-Well,it's very..hard to..explain...You-You wouldn't understand...

Oh? I see,i'm sorry i asked. I'm just glad that your okay,i could have sworn that my friend was going to hurt you.

Huh,did-did you say..your friend? She looked at him by shock and surprise. Hold on,so,you mean to tell me all those young adult's were your..friend's?

M-Mmm,hmm.

What?! Dawn thought to herself as her eye's wided a bit.

Seagull's started to cry out and fly around the beach and that the wind was blowing the two as they were standing a few feet away from one another.

Yeah,i feel so bad about all of this.

Oh,no,no! It's fine,really! I'm actually kinda shocked and surprised that they were all your friend's.

I'm just glad that i was able to save you on time before you got hurt,Matthew sure can get aggressive when someone make's him angry.

I can clearly see that...

Austin saw Dawn's backpack on her and she saw what he was looking at.

Uhh,do you want..a-a piece of sandwhich?

Huh?

I-I mean,you don't have to eat it if you don't want it. I mean,it's..nothing that much...

Sure,i don't mind.

Huh?

I haven't had anything to eat yet and i think we can eat and sit down by the dock's.

Dawn started to blush and that the two of them were both sitting down by the dock's as she opened the lid to the box of neatly,stacked sandwiche's.

Thank you. Austin thanked Dawn and that he took a sandwhich from the box as he started to eat the sandwhich.

Dawn took a sandwhich as she too,was watching him eat her homemade sandwhich that she made back at home.

When he finished taking a bite of the sandwich,she saw that his eye's wided a bit.

Wow,it's so good! He then started to eat the sandwhich and that he had a smile on his face,while eating the sandwhich as this made Dawn happy.

Really? It can't be that good since i only made these homemade.

But they were made with love.

When Austin said that,it made her blush in embarrassment and that she started to eat her sandwhich.

After about a few mintue's of eating a few sandwiche's,the two of them were both enjoying the beautiful scenary of the beach.

That was really good,i really appreciate it you sharing your lunch with me. Austin smiled and thanked her.

Why is he being so kind and nice to me? Hey,why are you being so kind to me? Are you pretending to be nice to me just because your my boss? Is that it?

This surprised Austin and that she had her head down.

I'm not pretending to be nice and the reason why i'm being so kind and nice to you is that i was raised to be kind and nice. The truth is,i was hoping that maybe..we could be friend's?

Huh? Dawn looked up and that she looked at him. Friend's?

Yeah,if that's okay with you.

But i don't even know you and why would you want to be friend's with a woman such as me?

I find you very caring,kind,and sweet.

She exclaimed softly when he said that to her as she didn't know what to say.

I know we just met a day ago,but i want to be friend's with you.

Hmm...What should i do? What should i say? We just met a say ago and now he's saying that he want's to be friend's with me? It would be so weird to be friend's with him just because he's my boss and that i'm working for him. Okay,we can be friend's. If,you intruduce me to your friend's and i'll let you meet my friend's as well,too.

You've got a deal!

Dawn started blushing lightly when she saw him smiling at her big.

Okay,since we're now friend's,when do you want me to meet your friend's?

Tonight.

Huh,tonight? Austin blinked a few time's and that if he heard her correctly.

Yes,tonight. Whenever my friend's and i have day's off of work,we would all hangout together. You know,like playing game's,talk,or watch movie's. Thing's what friend's do with each other.

Ohh,i see. Where am i going to meet you all?

You can come over to my house and my friend's will be coming tonight,too. Oh,since you don't know where i live--

Is it okay if we exchange cellphone number's?

Dawn's heart started to pound a little when Austin asked her that.

Um,o-o-okay,sure..

Austin and Dawn both exchanged cellphone number's to each other and that they had their cell phone number's in their phone's.

The two were both walking off of the dock's and that she turned to him.

Okay,i'll text you my address.

Okay,thank you again,Dawn.

It's no problem at all,see you tonight! Oh,and you can come over to my house at 6:00pm!

Okay,see you tonight!

Dawn smiled and waved goodbye to Austin as she started to walk back to her home.

Austin smiled and watched Dawn leave as he looked at his cellohone screen and that he was looking at her cellphone number.

I'll see you later tonight,Dawn...

Okay,let's see-- Dawn looked around in her living room to see if she had everything ready for the night as she saw that nothing was missing.

The young woman was back at her house and that it was already dark out.

When she came back home,she texted Austin her address and that he would come over to her house tonight as this was starting to make her nervous that her boss would be coming over to her house.

Man,i need to stop getting so nervous about this. My boss,my boss is coming over to my house! What is he going to think about my house? Will he and all of my friend's will be able to like each other? Of course,they will like him because they already like him. Except,for one friend that is...

All of Dawn's friend's parked their car's and all got out as they started to walk up to the front door.

Do you all have any idea why Dawn asked us all to come over to her house? Holly asked,turning to look at everyone.

Hmm,not sure. Kendrick admitted. We alway's hangout when we have our day's off of work.

Yeah,you are right about that. I am getting a bit hungry,though.

Maybe we can order pizza or something once we head into the house. Malcolm suggested to his girlfriend. I haven't eaten dinner yet myself and i'm hungry,too.

Everyone arrived at the front door and Kendrick was the one who knocked on the door as Dawn answered the front door.

Hello,everyone. I'm glad that you all could make it. Dawn smiled and opened the door wider for everyone to enter as she looked to see if Austin arrived yet.

Everyone greeted Dawn and walked inside the house as Raven saw that she was looking for something,but what.

Are you excepting someone? Raven asked as she looked at her friend.

Oh! Dawn exclaimed and that she started blushing. Actually,i am.

Who? Travis asked.

Austin.

Austin?! Kendrick cried out in surprise.

Yes,Austin.

Dawn told him and she let out a soft sigh and that she looked the other way so that no one would see the annoyed look on her face.

I knew he was going to overreact about this,typical Kendrick...

Dawn closed the front dooe behind her as she locked the front door as well.

Why did you invite him here? Kendrick asked.

Because i wanted to and that he would like to get to know you all better,too. Plus,we all like him,right?

Everyone agreed and so did Kendrick,but Dawn didn't believe him as she frowned at him a little.

Maybe inviting Austin here was a bad idea or better yet,maybe i shouldn't have told Kendrick to come here at all...Why doe's he have to act like such a child sometime's? Can't he tell that i don't want him and that i only want to be his friend? God,i can never understand him sometime's...

"Ding,dong!"

That must be him!

Dawn started to go toward's the front door and Raven turned to look at Kendrick as he was a bit confused on why she was looking at him.

What? Kendrick asked.

What the hell is wrong with you? Why were you all so shocked that Austin was coming over here? Raven asked,while narrowing her eye's at him now.

I-I was just a bit surprised,that's all.

Kendrick then crossed his arm's over his chest as he saw that Dawn unlocked and opened the front door as Austin was standing at her front door.

Look here,boy-- You can't tell Dawn what to do and you can't control her or her life,got it? She can do whatever she want's and it's not like your her boyfriend or something. You don't own her and stop acting like you do.

Hey,now-- Travis started to say.

Wow,i never knew Raven had the ball's to say that...Holly whispered to her boyfriend. She's so badass.

Right? Malcolm agreed with his girlfriend as well with that. He doe's need to be taught a lesson,after all.

Hi. Dawn greeted Austin,with a smile and that she opened the door wider for him to enter.

Hey.

Austin entered and thanked Dawn again for inviting him over as she closed and locked the front door behind her.

Everyone,i know that you all know who this is-- Dawn started to say. But Holly and Malcolm haven't met our boss yet. Holly,Malcolm,this is Austin,Austin Gomez. Austin,these are my two other friend's you haven't met yet.

Hello,it's very nice to meet you. Austin greeted the two couple.

The pleasure's all mine! Holly smiled big as she greeted him back.

Kendrick glared at Austin as Dawn saw what her friend was doing.

Hello,it's very nice to meet you as well. Malcolm greeted him,with a nod and smile.

Let's all sit on the couch and get to know our new friend more. Dawn suggested.

Everyone took their seat's on the couch as everyone started to talk.

Austin was sitting right next to Dawn on the couch,Holly and Malcolm were sitting next to each other in the middle,and of course,Kendrick,Raven,and Travis were sitting on the other couch across from the four as well and that everyone was starting to get to know Austin more.

Dawn,you never told me that your boss was so attractive and handsome! Holly whispered to her.

H-Hey--! Dawn started to whisper a little loud,while she was blushing in embarrassment. I hate to burst your bubble,but you happen to have a man!

I know,but you don't~ Holly then started to giggle like a school girl as this made Dawn blush even more.

So,Austin-- Holly started to say to him.

Oh,no-- Dawn started to think to herself.

Are you in a relationship?

Oh,no. I'm not in a relationship,i just haven't found that right one for me. Austin admitted to Holly and that he smiled.

Really,now?

Dawn saw that Holly was smiling and she knew what that smile meant.

Don't even think about it. Dawn mouthed the word's to Holly and that her friend smiled even wider as Dawn was relieved that she gave up for now.

I gotta say,i'm quite surprised that Dawn invited our boss over to her house tonight. Kendrick said out loud all of a sudden as Dawn gave him a glare.

Oh,the reason why i wanted to come over was because i wanted to get to know you all better if that's okay or if you all wanted to get to know me as well. Austin told Kendrick.

Oh,really? What do you know about us all?

Dawn's told me a lot and i'll tell you. Holly's favorite movie is Mean Girl's. You have a crush on Dawn.

Ah!

Kendrick then started to blush madly in embarrassment as he then looked down.

It's true,Mean Girl's is my favorite movie.

I like that movie,too. Austin added with a smile. Malcolm prefer's beer over wine.

Yep,that's true.

Raven's favorite color is Purple and her favorite popsicle to eat is Grape,right?

Yes,it is.

Travis,your favorite food is a double cheeseburger with frie's and you sometime's order a chocolate milkshake as well. Oh,and your favorite animal is a bear.

Amazing! You really do know us all i guess Dawn did tell you all about us and what we like.

And last but not least-- Dawn,you love Anime and to be honest,so do i. Austin told her.

Huh,wait-- You..like..Anime?

Like it? I love it! We should watch Anime together some time if you want to.

Y-Yeah! I-I'd like that very much..

After talking for a few minute's,Dawn,Holly,and Raven were in the kitchen getting drink's while the boy's were talking.

So,how are you two liking Austin so far? Dawn turned to her two friend's and that she had a smile on her face.

He's a hoot! Holly exclaimed and smiled big. He's handsome,kind,and nice. I think you two should hook up.

What?!

Dawn exclaimed a little loud,while blushing.

I-I don't know--

You two like Anime and i saw how the way you were looking at him. Raven admitted as a smile formed upon her face. Do you like him?

Well,i-- I do like him,but i don't think he..like's me..that..way...

What? The two friend's said at the same time.

Well,that's what i think...He's my boss and we just met a day ago...It would be kinda..awkward that i would be dating my own boss...

True,but it look's like he like's you. Holly admitted. I saw how he looked at you,maybe he doe's like you.

Yeah,everyone like's you. Your likeable. Raven added as well.

Even when you two say that--

Dawn started to say and that she turned to look at Austin.

I want to get to know him better...You know,to see what he dislike's and like's,okay?

Okay. Holly smiled at her friend.

Whatever float's your boat. Raven nodded,with a smile.

The three girl's walked back into the living room and that the three of them handed the guy's their soda's.

Even if i did dated Austin,Kendrick wouldn't like it one bit at all...Dawn thought to herself and that she sat down right next to Austin as she smiled at him.

He smiled back at her and that Kendrick glared at them both,while he took a sip of his soda.

Now that i know all about you all,what do you all wanna know about me? Austin asked.

Well,we'll start off by asking you a few question's about yourself-- Dawn started to say as she smiled. Like easy and simple thing's.

Okay,ask away.

What's your favorite color and movie? Holly asked as she smiled at him.

My favorite color is Blue and my favorite movie is Dawn Of The Dead. I know that some people don't like that movie,but i happen to like it a lot.

Okay,next question. What's your favorite food and what is your favorite type of ice cream? Malcolm asked Austin.

I like Chinese and Mexican food if you all didn't know-- Austin started to say,with a smile. My favorite ice cream flavor's are double chocolate chip cookie dough or mint ice cream.

I don't know,mint ice cream isn't as good as it is. Holly admitted.

It is good once you like it.

I have one,if you would ever happen to date anyone,would it be Dawn? Kendrick asked as Dawn saw he had a smile forming upon his face.

I am so sorry,Austin-- Dawn started apologising to him. You really don't need to answer that.

She then gave Kendrick a mean look and that he didn't care as Austin blushed lightly when Kendrick asked him that.

What's your favorite animal? Raven asked.

And your favorite type of candy? Travis asked as well.

Maybe i shouldn't have asked Kendrick to come over here tonight...Dawn thought to herself and that she had a concerned look on her face. I can't believe him,he's totally embarrassing me and he doesn't seem to care,either...I'm actually starting to hate him now...

My favorite animal is the wolf and my favorite type of candy is hershey's chocolate bar.

When Austin mentioned wolf,Dawn thought about her first wolf friend.

Wolfie...

While everyone was talking to Austin,he looked at Dawn as she was quiet and silent to herself.

That night,around 10:30pm,all of Dawn's friend's left the house as she closed and locked the front door behind her,while she let out a sigh.

Did everyone leave? Austin asked.

Gah!

Dawn exclaimed as she soon realized that Austin was still in her house and that he didn't leave yet.

Yeah,it look's like it.

Dawn started walking back into the living room with Austin following behind her as the two sat down on the couch together.

She saw that he was sitting right next to her as she blinked a few time's.

I wanna say thank you so much for inviting me over to your house. Austin smiled and thanked her.

Oh,it's no trouble at all,really. It look's like all of my friend's really like you. All except Kendrick...

Oh,i guess he's scared that i might take you away from him.

Ugh,i know! Kendrick doesn't seem to care how i feel and i don't like him that way...Why can't he just give up and move on? I only..like him as a friend and that's all...

Austin turned to look at her and as he did,he placed his hand onto the palm of her hand as she looked over at him.

I don't know why he's acting like that toward's you,he doesn't own you. He doesn't own you at all and i can tell that you only love him as a friend.

I do,i only love him as a friend,that's it. He doesn't seem to care or listen to anything that i have to say and no matter how hard i tell him,he just doesn't want to listen...I'm..actually starting to hate him now...

I'm sorry you have to go through that,i really do. Do you..want me to try and talk to him?

No,i don't think it'll do any good...

Oh,okay.

Austin and Dawn were both near to the front door and she was escorting him out as she was going to say her finale goodbye to him.

I guess i'll see you tomorrow? Austin turned to look at her.

Yes,you shall.

Dawn smiled at him warmly and that he knew what to say to her.

The two of them both looked at each other and as they did,they didn't take their eye's off of each other.

Eye to eye,not looking away.

All of a sudden,Austin then started walking over toward's the young woman as she then started to back away from him.

Exclaiming softly,her back was up against the wall as Austin was close to her.

A-Austin? Dawn stammered his name. What are you--?

I-I'm so sorry,Dawn-- But,i-i need you...No,i want you,i want you now...!

Austin then came and leaned over as he placed his lip's onto Dawn's lip's and that she could feel his lip's onto her's.

She didn't know what to do or what to say as she..didn't want him to stop and that she too,kissed him back.

Austin!

The two of them kissed each other deeply and that she wrapped her arm's around his neck as he lifted her up a little,while she even wrapped her leg's around him,too.

This kiss was so exotic and intoxicating as thing's were about to get hot and steamy.

While they both pulled away from each other's lip's,the two were both breathing hard as if they were trying to catch their breathe's.

He then lifted her down and then,he took his shirt off as her eye's wided a bit.

W-Wait,Austin-- We need to stop..

No,there's no way i can stop right now because i want you so damn bad...

A-Austin!

Ah! Dawn shifted up in bed and as she did,she was breathing hard,while she was looking around as she soon realized that she was in her bedroom. A dream,it was all a dream,but it..felt so..real...

Dawn then started to blush lightly and that she could remember every detail of that dream she just had.

You need to stop and think,he's your boss,and your boss only. Don't be thinking like some kind of pervert or something,sheesh.

Wednesday afternoon,Dawn was in the supply office making some copie's that she needed around the library as she was all alone.

When she had her back turned,she didn't know that somebody was standing by the doorway,looking and watching her.

Hey,Dawn. Kendrick greeted her.

The young woman exclaimed a little loud and she turned that Kendrick was standing by the doorway.

O-Oh,it's just you.

She then turned away and that she tried her best to avoid and ignore him.

Well,she did try to avoid him all day,but that obviously didn't work.

Ignoring him wasn't going to be easy,either.

She was a little bit upset at him ever since last night since he did embarrass her in front of Austin,their boss.

She knew that she would never forgive Kendrick after what he did.

Uhh,shouldn't you be busy in the library? Dawn asked as she tried to hold in her anger.

Yeah,but i wanted to see if you needed any help with the paper copie's.

Thank's,but no,thank's. I don't need help,i'm good.

Oh,are you sure?

Kendrick continued to look at her and that was desperate to insist to help.

Yes,i'm sure. Dawn insisted him and that she frowned. God,can't you take a hint that i don't want no help from the like's of you?

You need to give up on me...

You know,i was kinda surprised that you were the one who invited our boss over to your house.

Huh? Well,he wanted to meet everyone because he wanted to make some friend's. I mean,at least we all got to know him more,right?

You don't even know him even if you did...

Yeah,but he had no right to embarrass me like that in front of..well,you know.

I should be asking you the same thing. Dawn suddenly said to him all of a sudden.

I don't want to hurt you or your feeling's...

Huh,what do you--?

All of a sudden,Dawn finally turned away from the copying machine as she then looked at him.

You know exactly what i mean,Kendrick. You embarrassed me as well too,or are you going to deny that,too?

Wait a minute,i didn't--

Dawn looked down and she knew that explaining about it to her friend wasn't going to work,anyway.

He never cared how she feel's and he never listened to her,either.

You know what? Never mind,just forget it...Dawn walked past Kendrick and then,she started to walk a little fast as she had a concerned look on her face.

Kendrick watched Dawn leave and then,he gritted his teeth a little,while looking down at the ground as he had his hand into a tight fist.
