Chapter Ten
Hazel pulled down her tight golden dress so it went slightly below her knees. She slipped into her white high heels and fixed her diamond earrings. She put a golden flower in her hair so it was positioned above her right ear in the curly mass of brown hair. She sighed and looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled making various expressions, and when she was satisfied, she grinned and grabbed her phone and purse, heading out the door and waiting on her front step. She checked her texts.

Hazel Levesque: read✔️
She had left him on read. Her heart had started beating way too fast. They had just met the day before but it had felt like a connection from the day Hazel was born. Suddenly a big red Lamborghini pulled up in Hazel's driveway. She stood with her mouth hanging open as Frank walked out. He was wearing black jeans and a tight black shirt showing off all his muscles. When he saw her he froze. They both stood like that for a minute before recovering.
"Hi," Hazel said sheepishly while heading towards Frank. Frank smiled.
"Hello Miss Levesque. Your chariot has arrived," he said in a horrible posh accent. Hazel covered her mouth trying not to laugh.
"Why thank you, Sir Zhang," she said, getting in the shotgun. Frank grinned and got back in the driver seat and they started pulling out and driving towards the Monster Bar and Grill.
***
They sat at a small table outside. Despite its name, the Monster Bar and Grill only had one noisy spot, and that was the very back where barely anyone went. Frank and her sat practically alone outside with only one other couple sitting on the opposite side of the patio. They had already ordered their meals and drinks and were chatting quietly.
"You know, you should come to one of my games sometime. You can be my special guest of honor," he grinned wiggling his eyebrows. Hazel laughed softly.
"I've never really watched football before..." Hazel trailed off. Frank didn't look surprised though, he just laughed.
"It's okay. Hey, I had a really great time tonight. I really..." Frank suddenly had an interest in his plate of spaghetti.
"I like you too, Frank," Hazel whispered. Frank looked up at her and smiled, his eyes brightening. At the same time they leaned in towards each other, and their lips met. They moved in perfect sync, and Frank put his hands on Hazel's hips. Hazel put her hands on Frank's neck.
"I know we just met yesterday," Frank said when they pulled apart blushing like crazy, "but your not like any other girl I've met before. Your special Hazel Levesque."
Hazel felt her heart warm when he touched her face gently. But of course that's when everything went wrong.
Someone started screaming from inside the bar. Hazel and Frank bolted out of their chairs.
"Frank what's going on-" Hazel is cut off by Frank's horrified expression. Hazel follows his glance to see someone running out of the building with a knife in their hand, jumping into a white van, and running out.
"I love you Hazel," Frank said kissing Hazel again. It was almost as if he was saying goodbye.
Then Frank sprinted inside.
"No!" Hazel screamed. She heard a faint ticking noise inside. If it was what she though it was...
Frank had just made it to the door when the whole building exploded, sending him flying through the air, and sending Hazel crashing to the ground as debris raining around. Hazel's head hit the pavement with a sickening crunch and her vision went black.
