<em>UCLA Astronomy Annex: 10:55 PM</em><br/><br/>Seth sat in his black Escalade truck, smoking a cigarette in a far corner of the Astronomy Annex parking lot. He was blasting Rob Zombie with the windows up, and the lights out. He peered through the cigarette smoke as the students in the late class began to filter out, back to their cars. He was watching Jenna’s car in particular, parked at an ideal sightline to her vehicle and hidden to most of the others. There were no overhead lights in this rarely used corner of the lot, he’d done several laps around the lot to find the perfect spot for what he wanted.<br/><br/>After what seemed like forever, Jenna finally emerged from the building. She was among the last to leave, but seemed to be walking with a crowd, that would be problematic. Seth placed his cigarette between his lips and pulled up the hood on the UCLA sweatshirt he’d bought from the student store. He then slid a pair of sunglasses over his eyes and stepped out of the truck, flicking his cigarette butt into the bushes.<br/><br/>Seth pulled out his cell phone and pretended to be searching for a signal, holding it up above his head and walking over toward Jenna’s car. Through his dark glasses, he was still watching her. Watching her move, watching her laugh, examining her soft curves and imagining her naked.<br/><br/>Imagining her helpless.<br/><br/>When she walked close enough to hear him, he spoke to her for the first time.<br/><br/>“Excuse me. Do you have jumper cables? My battery died and I forgot my cables back home, bad timing right? I had to clear out my truck to help my brother move last weekend, and it just slipped my mind. I was trying to call him, but I can’t get a damn signal anywhere around here. Could you help me?”
