Bella's POV

I woke up and flashbacks from yesterday's incident came flooding back to my mind.

I cant stop thinking about it cause he was so close to me. Okay, I had to admit he was cute. His eyes met mine and it make my heart beat a million beats per second.

"Bella, snap out of it!" I thought to myself as I stood up. I took a shower and ate my breakfast. My whole afternoon was kinda boring. I never had anything to do except to watch T.V. My only event this afternoon is at twelve. My 'lunch' with James. I watched T.V. all morning until twelve. When twelve struck, I went to my room and to my closet. I tried to decide on what to wear. I guess this 'lunch' isn't too formal but also not too fancy. So I grabbed a blue blouse and a pair of skinny jeans. I fixed my hair to its normal, straight style. I put on a thin layer of make-up. Then suddenly, someone was calling outside my house. I looked out and saw that it was James. He was wearing a tuxedo with a blue shirt inside, a pair of dark jeans and vans. I signed him to wait for me. I hurriedly grabbed my purse and went down. I closed the front door and went to James' car.

"you look great Bella." James said to me as I slightly blushed.

"you too" I said as he opened the door to his car.

I went in and he went in the other side.

"you ready?" he asked.

"ready as you are." I said with a smile.

He returned with a smile and started the car. We didn't talk during the car ride. It was very silent, and very awkward. Finally, we reached our destination. It was a restaurant, a few miles from my house. We went in and we sat on a booth beside the wall. A waiter approached us and gave us both menus. I ordered mine and so did James. We did a little chatting while waiting for our food.

"so, Bella. I have a question for you."

"what is it?"

"what would you prefer? Asking for the number or giving your number out?"

"um.....I think asking for the number."

"well then, can I have yours?" James said, handing out his phone.

"of course." I said, typing my number to his phone.

"here." I said, handling his phone back.

"thanks. You know you're a good friend Bella."

I blushed when he said that. Then, our food came. We ate and after that, we talked some more. I just discovered that James is a fun guy. He likes to joke around. We talked a lot this afternoon. We went home cause it was really late.

"thanks for the lunch, James." I said as I walked away.

"wait, where are you going?"

"back to my house."

"but its like miles from here. How can you get there?"

"I'll just ride a bus."

"I'll drive you."

"uh.........okay. Thanks."

"c'mon let's go!" James said as he grabbed my arm and dragged me to his car.

We went back to my house. The whole trip was not that fun but we did talk about things. Finally, we reached my house.

"so.........thanks again for the lunch....and the ride, James."

"anytime, Bella." he said as he smiled to me

But something from the past came back to me, like déjà vu. As my brain started visualizing it, I also started crying.

James POV

"so.........thanks again for the lunch....and the ride, James."

"anytime, Bella." I responded, blushing a little.

Oh, I hoped she didn't see that. As I was about to say something, she just suddenly bursted into tears. I quickly grabbed her and asked.

"w...what's wrong, Bella?" I said

"oh nothing. It's just.....this reminds me of the past." she said, wiping the tears on her face.

"why, what's wrong with your past?"

"well, you know Harry Styles, the dude in One Direction."

"yeah, why?"

"well I used to date him when I was still working in London."

****START OF FLASHBACK****

"hey there, sweet cheeks!"

"hey Harry!" I said, then he suddenly pulled me into a kiss.

"how was your day at work?"

"why do you even care? By the way, it was fine."

"cause I'm your boyfriend."

Those times were the ones I always treasured. Not until I found out that he entered the X-Factor. And his sudden popularity made him drift farther away from me. I tried to contact his phone but there was no answer. Then, I suddenly saw him with four other guys that I never met I my life, performing live on stage. And suddenly, he was in this band called One Direction. Their popularity in London got big, and they got even more popular in other countries. Soon, they got concerts, fan meetings and world tours. My only thought is that, had he already forgotten about me? Until one day, I heard some people saying that Harry already has a girlfriend. My heart was shattered into a million pieces with what I had heard. He did already forgot about me. We were officially over.

****END OF FLASHBACK****

"after that, I never trusted any guy anymore."

"oh....what a sad story,Bella." I said, pulling her to a hug

"don't worry Bella, I'll always be here for you."

"Thanks James." Bella said, still trying to prevent her tears.

She looks cute when she cries. Awwwwww. I still think that she can't trust any guy anymore, but I'm going to take it slow for me to get her.
