I have been obsessed ever since i heard that bell that signalled the door to Mooneys opening. It was actually ten minutes past closing but I had forgotten to put the sign up since I was too busy with a new delivery of first editions.

"We're closed!" I shouted as I headed up the basement stairs You had replied really apologetically and out of breath, "I am so sorry, It is a long story but I was in a rush-" You stopped to catch up on your breath "I know what I want, It is just one book, Little women. My Sister is obsessed and she's leaving tommorow and I just wanted to suprise her." Your voice sounded like an angel, and god, you looked like one too. Hair all messy from your running and a top with a pretty low neckline. You want me to look, and look i did. Maybe a couple seconds too long, but oh well. The way you just look up to me, those big eyes looking through your full lashes. You got all ready for this, didn't you?

"This ones on the house, it saves us both the trouble." I said as I handed you the book You replied with a million thank yous and something even better, your name. Hayes. You slipped it out after you promised to return.

Finding your accounts online was no challenge. There were only one instagram account with your name, and It is public. _nyc. You want to be seen. That is lucky for me, but a rookie mistake on your part. What is it with people nowadays who want to just show off their everyday life to strangers online? This coulld be dangerous for you. Anyone can see that reel of you leaving your apartment to go buy coffe across the street. You doxxed yourself by showing not only your street, but also your house number and which apartment. If you act like this, you have to be protected, I have to protect you.

As I spend my week learning your routines, I see when you're at work, where you always stop for coffee and what you do. I have to make sure that we meet again. That did not take long. Not even 10 days after we first met, you returned to the bookstore. This time more put together and maintaned. Smiling. It is amazing what your lips are capable of. That smile and voice, surely it is used for other great things as well. It is so cute that you got ready, just for me. "Hello, you." As I look at you I know, we are meant for each other and I need to protect you. I have to keep away anyone who comes inbetween us, theres no limit i wouln't cross for you.
