Charlotte

I am currently walking back from my work. I know that I am marrying a billionaire, but it is a beautiful day. I also don't want to become to much of a trouble for Liam, so I walked to work and now I am walking back. Without him knowing. He he.

Ally gave me a earful for not calling her recently, so once I got work I was bombarded with questions. Long story short she made me promise to call her every two hours. Except after 10 pm. I was looking forward to waking her up. Oh well.

I pulled out my phone and checked the time. It's 6 pm. I am so tired, I'm ready to fall asleep and not wake up till morning. Unfortunately I have to reach the house first. Hmm maybe I will take the bus.

It will save time, soooooo bus it is. With that in mind I marched to the nearest bus station.

Once the bus pulled up I boarded the bus and paid the driver.

The bus wasn't very crowded. 10 people at most, so I took a seat at the end of the bus by the window.

Just as the bus was about to move, a lady quickly ran on the bus, payed the driver and started making her way to the back.

She better not sit with me. I am not in a people mood right now. I have been surrounded by them all day, and I am ready to just run in my room, lock the door, and sleep.

She looked at me and smiled. Oh no she is coming closer. I returned the smile, but internally I was hoping she wouldn't sit next to me. No no she is so close, and she sat down.

Ugh, now I have to socialize.

"Hi, I'm Nicky" she said cheerfully. She had brown shoulder length hair and bright emerald green eyes. She looked to be around 20 ish

Guess it's time to socialize. Yippee. Not sarcastic at all.

"Hey, I'm Charlotte" I said plastering on a smile

"Where are you heading" she asked

"Home"

There was a silence.

"You aren't a social person are you" she chuckled

"I am, just I have been around people all day, and I am ready for alone time" I protested

"Fair enough" she smiled

"Where are you heading" I asked

"To my friend's house"

"Nice"

"Yeah" she said just as the bus stopped.

"Well this is my stop" we both said at the same time

We looked at each other and laughed

"Well after you" Nicky said standing up and letting me pass

"Why thank you"

We both walked out, silently walking side by side.

"So, how has your day been" she asked trying to spark up a conversation,

"it's been good"

"How has your.... Ahh" I screamed as someone ran by taking my purse, which caused me to trip and twist my ankle, and fall.

Me being the stubborn person I am didn't let go of my purse, which caused the masked man to let go of the purse and run.

With Nicky yelling at him.
After the man was out of sight she knelt down.

"Oh my gosh, are you okay" she asked concerned

"Yes" I said still clutching onto my ankle.

She didn't look convinced. Not one bit.

"It's not my first time spraining my ankle, I will just put some ice on it." I smiled

"Okay, but I'm walking you home"

"Fine" I huffed

She smiled

"I wasn't going to take no for an answer" she said helping me stand up

"I could tell" I chuckled

"So where do you live" she asked

"You know, that sounds like something a robber would say" I said jokingly

"That's because I am" she said trying to hide her smile

We both burst out laughing. Once we calmed down I told her the directions, and she slung one of my arms over her shoulder and supported me as we walked.

I think we will become great friends.

"Can I get your number" we said at the same time causing us to laugh again

"We really are good at that" I said chuckling

"Here" she said stopping and giving me her phone. I quickly entered my number

"Perfect" she smiled. Helping me walk again.

Once we made it to Liam's house, Nicky helped me limp up the stairs.

"I think I can take it from here" I said

"You sure" she asked still concerned

"Yes, I'm sure"

"I can help take care of you if you want"

"Thanks Nicki, but my fiance will help me I'm sure"

"You are engaged?!" She exclaimed

"I will explain later"

"Fine" she narrowed her eyes

"Tomorrow" she said

"Deal" I replied

"Text me the details" she said walking away

I shook my head smiling. I might have hurt my ankle, but I think I gained a true friend.

With that thought I rang the doorbell
