(Sorry I haven't uploaded in ages, I've been busy with school! I'll try to upload a new chapter every day or so :])

So..' He spoke, breaking the silence, not so smoothly. I stayed quiet, embarrassed at the fact that I just had a petty scrap with some teenagers. And they won. I stared at the floor in defeat.
'You're not from here.' He stated, chuckling. 'N-not really.' I stuttered, nervously. He was a pretty intimidating guy,, to be honest. I'm guessing he was around 6,4. He had a slim frame and a perfect jawline. That wasn't the reason I was nervous though. He was handsome. Really handsome. And I do not do well around guys like that. I reminded myself of Tommy a while back. He got all weird and stuttery talking to women.

'Uh- Hello?' I jumped from my trance of thought. 'Sorry!' What were you saying?' I answered. 'I was asking if you were alright?' He spoke in a soft tone, making me relax a little more. 'Yeah, I'm fine, sorry.' 'It's alright. Just came down to see what all the racket was, that's all.'

'Oh, alright.'

There was an awkward silence.

'So, do you know tom?'

'Yeah, he's one of my best friends!' I said, more comfortably as this was a topic that wasn't so awkward.

'OoOOOo!' He cooed, mockingly.

'Oi! We're just friends.'

'Alright, alright. So, what room number?' 

'Huh?'

'Your apartment number.' 

'Oh! Right- I haven't even got it. And it doesn't look like they're coming anytime soon.'

'Sorry, who?'

'The sales person thingy. I don't think they're coming. I'll just stay in the hotel across the street I guess-' You said, disappointed that you didn't get to stay in the apartment block. 

'Can I uh- get your number?-' He asked, awkwardly. '

'I- sure!' I was taken aback by the fact that a really cute guy had just asked me for my number.

'It's just incase you need any help with, you know- your room and stuff.' 

'Oh.' I thought out loud, clearly disappointed. 

'Is something wrong?' He asked. 

'No! I- uh-' I turned red. He knew I was disappointed. I made it so obvious and I already regretted it. 'I just- Here..' I gave him a small card with my social media on it. I gave it to people when I went busking back in London. I had way too many copies, seeing as nobody really liked my music. 

'You do music?'

'Uh, yeah! Yeah I do-' I said, glancing at the extremely heavy guitar case that was leaned up against the sofa. 

'So do I!' 

'Awesome, I'll check it out what's your name?'

'It's Wilbur Soot.'

'P-pardon?' Wilbur Soot?! Did I hear that right?!

'Wilbur Soot?'

I didn't want to be a fangirl and make a huge deal about it, so I pretended I had no idea who the guy was. 

'Oh, alright. I think I might have heard the name before.' He smiled at me. It was like he saw right through my lie. Had he seen me singing one of his songs before perhaps? His smile was so welcoming and warm. It made me melt. 

'WILL! WILL THE KETTLE FELL AND THERES WATER EVERYWHERE WILL!' A young voice screamed from up the stairs. Wilbur rolled his eyes. 'You wanna come up?' 

'What?!' I said, a little bit too shocked.

'Do..- Do you want to come up to my place..?' He asked, a little more consciously this time. He probably thought that I didn't want to go up at all. I felt so bad. Stop overthinking and get it over with. Say something, Y/N! I told myself.

'Alright sure, with you! I MEAN- Sure, if it's alright with you!' I groaned and covered my eyes in embarrassment.

'Come on then!' He ran up the stairs. I walked up, hesitantly. We got up into the room after a couple flights of small stairs. 'Are you alright !? Wh- wheres the water?' 

'I just wanted to get you up here faste- Y/N!!' He jumped up from the chair he was sat in and wrapped me in a huge bear hug, pushing wilbur out of the way. 

'Excuse you.' Wilbur spoke, obviously pissed that he was the 'third wheel.' 


**Wilburs POV**

I looked down at the two hugging each other. I was jealous and I had just met the person! They were quite cute though. I walked over to my setup and sat down. Tommy is now telling them all about the day we had. Their laugh was adorable. 'Uh, Wil? You alright there?'

'Huh?' I answered. I realised I was staring at Y/N for a good five minutes as they talked. I saw Y/N go red a bit and chuckled. 'I'm fine.' 

'OH OH Y/N GUESS WHAT HAPPENED THEN!'

I put in my earphones and started editing a video I had made.
