It was her first day in the city, but not her first day on her own. A runaway from the age of 13, she was used to being alone in a strange town. Now 20 she walked the DeadEnd streets. She felt the eyes of strangers watching her from darkened windows, and around darkened corners. This town was worse then the one she had just left. She would have to be an guard at all times here. She found a small pizzaria and went in to warm up. She had no money for food or a drink, so she sat quietly at a table alone in a corner, hopeing not to be noticed. The waitress set a drink on her table. As she turned to leave, MeiMei quickly responded, "I didn't order this." The waitress smiled and said, "I was told to bring you a drink, from another customer." MeiMei didn't like accepting gifts like that, she had learned long ago that gifts never come free, and ususally who ever gave it will want something in return. She looked around, trying to pick out who sent the drink but no one seemed to be looking in her direction. She could send it back, but truth be told she was very thristy, and just this once decided to accept the offering.

There was someone watching her. She didn't see him but his eyes were glued to her. She was a pretty girl and he had seen her the minute she walked in. She had black hair, long and wavey enough to give it the slightly messy look he found sexy. Her eyes were dark brown. She had dark skin which gave her a slightly exotic look. She had full red lips that looked perfect for kissing, or other oral activities. He could see she was young and he liked that too, though he couldn't pin point her age. She looked in her teens but carried herself like someone older and more experienced. Her body was trim and firm in all the right places and he thought how nice it would be to feel her skin. He watched her scanning the room, and each time her gaze fell towards his, he looked away, not wanting her to know he too was watching. She finished the drink and got up from the table leaving a few small coins for the waitress. It wasn't much but until she found work, it was all she had.

He watched her as she went back to the door, his eyes falling on the firm smooth curve of her hips as she left. He smiled knowing someday he would see her again...soon he hoped. The door closed behind her and she was out on the streets again walking in the cold dark night air.
