Love You Like Oxygen (Inhaler Fanfic)

2: Bricks.

"I am so sorry-"

As he held out his hand to help me up, I sighed and took it, letting him help me up.

"It's fine" I muttered, dusting off my jeans of any invisible dirt from the floor.

He stuffed his hands in his pockets as he let out a relieved breath and looked me over.

I couldn't help but feel slightly insecure in front of him, but can you blame me? He's an attractive, talented guy dressed like he's about to walk on stage, and I'm here in the same dark blue jeans with a bleach stain on the knee that I've had for years and an old Primark hoodie.

"You're not hurt or anything are you?" Trying to ignore the sting in my ankle, I nodded and gave him a thumbs up.

I officially wanted to just fall into a dark hole, never to be seen again. What kind of fucking idiot gives Elijah Hewson a thumbs up?

"Eli we gotta go." I'll forever be thankful to the sudden voice for saving me from embarrassing myself any further.

I turn my head slightly to see an extremely tall, pale man with wavy brown hair. He was wearing sunglasses but it wasn't difficult to figure out that he was another member is the band. In my defence, I only know Elijah's name because he's Bono's son, but I'll be sure to find out his name online later. For now, I'll call him tall guy. I know, I'm so smart.

"Yeah I'm coming now," Elijah said to his bandmate before turning back to me, "You're okay right?"

"Yeah yeah I'm fine it's nothing I'm fine" I rushed out, nodding my head as I looked between him and his friend.

Tall guy raised an eyebrow, confused as to what the situation was. " Well then I'll be on my way, and I'm sorry again. Although I wish we had met under better sorcomestances, it was nice meeting you-?" he trailed off at the end.

"Oh, Olivia! I'm Olivia!" someone please, anyone, I'm begging please just throw a brick at me right now and make me shut the fuck up.

"I'm Elijah," I almost audibly gulped when I noticed the small smile pulling at the corner of his lips, "Well it was lovely meeting you, Olivia."

"You too," I managed to somehow get out. Well at least I got one sentence out without causing my ancestors to feel shame.

With a small nod he turned and walked away. Tall guy gave me a quick smile before following after him, leaving me gripping my tote bag with a racing heart, a lot of embarrassment, and the continues throbbing in my ankle.

I have to tell Ellice.
