He stayed because he wanted to make sure she was okay. The next thing she knows she's waking up on her mother's couch with him crouched on the end trying to stay far away from her (so he won't scare her). She tries to go back into her house and ends up tripping on something in her yard and knocking herself out. She's nervous because she's been so sheltered and he's covered in tattoos, piercings and is about 6'5". He catches her `spying' on him and attempts to start a conversation with her. As the story starts she sees this guy Van whom she calls a `punk' talking with her neighbor. She's stuck under her parent's roof not because she's afraid to leave for herself, but for another reason I don't want to give away because it might be considered a spoiler. I absolutely adored this story! Evie has lived a very sheltered life because of an abusive father and bad family life in general despite the fact that her parents are well off and appear 'normal' on the outside.
