SMILE [h.s]

1

Jessica was laied out across the queen sized bed, her lips parted slighlty and her eyebrows furrowed. Her mind was filled with ideas for her new project, yet she couldn't get any of them to come together and actually make sense. In frustration, she turned over on to her stomache and placed her chin in the plam of her hands.

"Are you done taking over my bed yet because I would love to have it back."

Jess turned to look at her blue eyed bestfriend.

"Are you done interrupting me yet  because I would love to finish thinking."

Naill groaned and trudded to his bed. Jess arched her eyebrows at him and was about to ask him what he was doing but it was too late. He had already flopped down on top of her .

"Niall!!! Get off of me ! "

Niall just laughed as his best friend squirmed underneath his body.

"Not until you agree to take a break. This whole photography stuff has you all stressed out."

It was true. Ever since Jess got the job as the assistant for Toronto's biggest photography industry, she was always busy and stressed. Thinking of new ideas , managing meetings, organizing photoshoots, and just getting coffee kept her on her feet. But she wasn't complaining. She'd wanted to be in the photo industry ever since her older cousin Liz passed from cancer. Jess wanted to complete Liz's dream for her.

"This "whole photography stuff" is my future Niall , now GET OFF!"

"Okay okay " he replied pushing himself up " but you have to come out to breakfast with me, my treat for almost crushing you to death."

Jess thought about the offer. The last time she ate was before she went to bed and that was just a gronla bar.

She rolled her eyes. "Fine , I can't think straight anyway ."

Niall gasped and put his hand on his chest. "Not even in your favorite thinking spot ?!?"

"Oh shut up." She pushed past him and went across the hall into her room.

*******

As soon as the door to their flat opened, the cool morning wind hit Niall and Jess's face.

"Shit" Niall muttered taking off his gloves to lock the door.

Jess rubbed her mitten covered hands together in attempt to get warmer. She never liked this weather but she couldnt really hate it. It was Canada, and everyone loves Canada. The only really good thing about winter was the beautiful snow and the comfortable yet completely stylish clothing.

"Let's go ." Niall said pulling his grey beanie over his head.

Despite the cold weather, the streets were crowded. Niall pushed through the sidewalk full of people as Jess held on to the back of his sweater so she didn't get lost.

"Niall where are we going?"

"To get the best food in the world."

"You think all food is the best food in the world."

Niall looked back at her and chuckled.

"True."

It seemed like the longer they walked, more people joined the crowded pavements . Some little kid behind Jess kept kicking the back of her KEDS , trying to make it come off. To his luck , it did.

"Niall wait . " she called out , letting go of his jacket to fix her shoe. But Niall didn't notice her stop.

"Naill!" The crowds kept moving which made it harder for Jess to find him but she soon spotted the familiar grey beanie ahead of her.

"Niall I told you to wait." Jess pulled on the back of his jacket so he would turn around but instead of seeing the blue eyed boy she was met with a green eyed stranger.

His brown curls poked out of his beanie this pink lips parted in confusion.

Jess was speechless. Not only was she embarrassed, she was awestruck by the strangers beauty.

"Oh I'm so sorry , I thought you were someone else."

The man smiled at her and suddenly the embarrassed feeling faded away.

"Its quite alright love."

His British accent was very noticeable and just the sound of his raspy voice made her knees buckle.

"What's your name?"

"Jess."

"Short for Jessica I'm guessing."

Jess smiled and nodded her head.

"You guessed right."

"Well Jessica, since you have such a beautiful name you have to give me your number . " he smirked.

Jess giggled and crossed her arms.

"And what happens if I don't give you my number? "

The man shrugged his shoulders and laughed a little.

"Then I guess I'll just have to give you mine."

"Fine"

Jess pulled out her phone and handed to the handsome stranger. Her smiled as her typed the number then gave it back to her. She looked down at it and saw the words HARRY S. on the screen.

"Harry. " she said looking up but he was already lost in the crowd.
