Ever since my Mother, I attended counselling. I hated going to it but it helped me escape my problems at home and anywhere was better than there. It was a bleak, rainy day today which made going to counselling myself even more depressing. After what felt like forever the bus had finally reached the counsellors building and I sighed out of boredom just ready to get this over with. I walked up the massive spiral stair case all the way to the top of the building to finally reach my counsellors office. I was exhausted by the time I got up them, as I went to knock on the door she told me to wait a couple minutes which was odd because usually I'm her last client of the day. Finally after a few minutes the door opened and there he was. A tall, 6ft2, brown haired and blue eyed boy was standing in front of me. He was the most attractive boy I had ever seen and he smelled amazing, I couldn't get enough of him I was practically drooling over him. I was confused though, I've been coming here at the same time for months now and I had never seen this boy before? Little did I know...

He looked me up and down as he opened the door to the hallway and proceeded to wink at me (which I definitely blushed at) and by now I had gained enough courage to speak up and go "Excuse me". He moved his step wear ever so slightly and then carried on walking down the corridor towards those killer spiral stairs. Counsellor Hope was ready for me to come in and sit down to talk to her but all I could think about was, who was that? I stared out the window watching the raindrops slowly fall from the sky and bounce off the pavement patiently waiting to just leave already. Finally, the hour was over and I was allowed to go home but before I left I asked counsellor Hope who that boy from earlier in the corridor was, and that's when she said his name. Chase Evans.

Chase's POV:

I can't believe I was forced into coming to this shit but Mother thinks It'll be good for me and I have no other option. I prefer to not speak about my trauma and just forget it, it's way easier to get over it that way but whatever. After walking up that huge stair case I approached the door but not before sighing and whispering to myself "this is so stupid" before knocking on it. A woman with long, dark brown hair and medium build with glasses came to the door, she practically threw me in her arms like I was her Grandson, seriously what is wrong with people. I gave up even listening to the things she said because she kept rambling on about what my Mother said but I don't care what she said, if I got my way I wouldn't be here right now.

I scanned the room looking for anything interesting but nothing grabbed my attention, just mental health posters and fidget toys, honestly. It was 10 minutes later when I realised our session was actually over that's just how much I wasn't paying attention. I turned the glistening golden door knob to finally get out of this place and that's when I seen the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. She had huge big blonde curls and the prettiest green eyes I had ever seen. We got lost in each others eyes for what seemed like forever until she spoke up and said "Excuse me". Me being the idiot I am didn't even say Sorry or anything back, I walked away as fast as I could in total embarrassment that I never even realised I was in her way, that's probably why she was looking at me for so long. I'm so stupid to think that maybe I felt a spark with her.

As it approached to nighttime, I was lying in my bed unable to sleep, tossing and turning not being able to get the thought of that girl out of my head. She looked so lost, so sad and that's when I knew I just wanted to have her in my arms and never let her go.

Lavenders POV:

"Dear diary,
I can't sleep I just keep thinking about Chase. I know I shouldn't, heck he doesn't even know my name what am I doing. I just felt so connected to him, like I've known him my whole life and in that moment, all I wanted to do was jump into his arms and never let him go. "
