Runaway Love: A Short Interracial Romance

Dave:

I was mean to her the first time I met, partly because I’m very protective of my sister, and being a marine made matters worse. Nevertheless, soon I started warming up to this stranger.

Marcia Gray became a mystery that I wanted to unravel. I sensed her beauty and essence the second I laid eyes on her. But I also sensed fear. I could tell she was a fragile and troubled soul in need of help based solely on her demeanor. Oddly enough, my heart beats for her, and I find myself being drawn to her beauty and innocence more and more like a moth to a flame.

I’ve never truly loved someone, and I feel like I could love Marcia Gray. I never did believe in the one and all that crap, but Marcia has me feeling like a hopeless romantic. I believe she’s the one for me. But the question is will she give the heart that beats for her a chance, or will she just run away?
