For A month straight this strange arrangement kept occurring. She got home from work took a shower and made dinner and by 10 pm he was standing by her back door. Lanoir enjoyed this routine may be a little too much. She was slowly becoming accustomed to seeing him every day. Lanoir didn't care that he had yet said a word to her. But he did stick with the idea of nods and shakes so they did communicate in a weird way. Coming out of her thoughts as she heard her iPhone 7 ring, looking down to see who it was, it was Lisa.

"Hello?" She answered.

"You have to come out with me this weekend, My company is having a big party. All the big shots will be there !" she screamed into the phone.

"You know I don't like going out to parties Lisa, why can't you invite one of your other friends?" she asked

" Whatever grandma I just landed one of the biggest cases of my career and the night is young. The company is throwing it in my honor and plus you're my best friend. I wouldn't go with anyone else.

"I don't have anything to wear," she said trying to come up with a decent excuse, she didn't want to miss spending time with her mysterious protector.

"I'm on my way to your place. I'll pick you up in an hour. We're going to go shopping!" she said then hung up

It was Friday and she had stayed in to finish off some desk work. So she sighed and headed upstairs to change into some decent clothing. Opening her white wooden dresser she pulled out a pair of Light blue jeans and a fitting white t-shirt. After that, she grabbed her black cardigan and stepped into a pair of her old white converse. Grabbing her hard bristle brush she ran it through her hair and pulled her locks into a tight ponytail.

After getting ready she made her way down the steps and grabbed two bottles of water. Hearing the honking she said goodbye to her babies and slide into Lisa's Silver BMW. Buckling her seatbelt she handed her the extra water and they were off.

"Thanks, so I was Thinking that I should wear something slutty but not too slutty. Like steal her husband but not Paid prostitute. What do you think?" she asked in her twisted wording.

All lanoir could do was laugh.

...

When they made it to the mall Lanoir was glad that the place wasn't too crowded. The pair moved through the small crowd and walked into the dress shop. Lanoir felt that they were overpriced, but only because she was a person who liked to save money. She felt herself being pulled deeper into the sea of clothing. Passing rack after rack of different clothing she stopped when her eyes landed on a cream-colored silk dress. It was floor length and had a deadly side part down the middle. While the top has thin spaghetti straps and a V- neck bust line. The dress was beautiful. But before she went to the dressing room she saw that there was a male section. Browsing through the racks she found a suit that was dark grey. She couldn't help but picture it on Jaxs, his strong frame enclosed in the suit. Picking it up she draped it over her shoulder and picked up a deep sea blue silk shirt. The color would make his eyes shine. She hid the clothes behind her back when Lisa walked over.

" You have to get that dress, It would look amazing on you! You're going to have a hard time keeping the men off you." Lisa Squealed in a high pitched voice.

"Yeah I'm going to go try it on," she said while taking it into the dressing room. Lisa went back to focusing on finding a dress. So they didn't notice the suspicious looking men following Lanoir. Once she made it into the changing room she slowly started to undress. She was about to drop her pants when she saw a pair of Black shoes stand by her door.

"Umm. Is there something you need?" She questioned while holding her hand above her zipper.

Lanoir was met with silence. Her mind automatically thought about a horror movie. She wasn't about to be chopped up and sold for parts. Quickly placing her shirt back on she waited until she saw the black loafers disappear. Waiting a couple of minutes to be sure that he was gone. Rushing out of the dressing room she grabbed her items and hurried to get with Lisa. For some odd reason, she felt like she was being followed. Lanoir felt that it wasn't her guy who was following her, whoever was following her felt cold and malicious. Finally seeing Lisa she hurried over and told her that they should get going. Paying for their dress and the suit they headed out. No matter how much she tried to shake the feeling of being stalked she couldn't.

After Lisa dropped her off she went to her house and locked the door. She hadn't noticed the tall figure behind her. Turning around she bumps into his large chest.

"Ahh, what the hell. Fuck sorry I didn't see you." She stated as she looked up into confused gray eyes.

Placing her hand on her chest she tried to calm down her beating heart.She was surprised when she felt his hand run down and lift her chin so she was looking at him. The question was clear in his eyes. Whats wrong?

"I might just be paranoid but, I swear I felt like someone was following me today when I went out," she said looking into his eyes for any indication that he might have been the one following her.

"Did you follow me?" she questioned. He shook his head no. she could see that he was telling the truth but she could also see that he knew something.

She was surprised when she ran his thumb over her bottom lip and caressed her face. A blush quickly made its way to her face. Lanoir unconsciously found herself leaning into his touch. She did not want him to go. But she could tell that he had to leave.

" You have to go. Don't you ?" She sadly asked.

He just nodded and removed his hand from her face. Stepping behind her she saw him open the front door and leave. Lanoir didn't fully understand this strong attachment they shared but she knew she didn't want to see it go.
