Trying something different. each chapter will focus on one woman rather than multiple from now on. also sorry about the late upload. REALLY losing motivation... not just for writing, but for everything.

Y/N, the morning after his kiss with Leigh and night with Jane woke up to a notification on his phone. He ignored it and  grumbled knowing it was his boss; after the accident work had been understanding in his current predicament but he was running out of hours before he was required to go back to the office. Now that he had mostly healed up, he knew that it was time to go home and find a new place to live and get back to work. The problem was he didn't want to. He just wanted to go back to that bar he met Jane at and drink until he couldn't remember his own name. the pain of remembering everything was getting too much for Y/N to bear. He groaned and threw the pillow over his head resisting the urge to start screaming, before he grabbed his phone, snoozing his alarm and throwing it against the wall, not caring if it cracked he just wanted it to be quiet. He let out a sigh, almost glad until he felt his stomach rumble. Oh right... he hadn't bothered to eat much yesterday and now it was catching up with him. In fact, he hadn't eaten much since the accident; if it wasn't for Elle shoving food down his throat he would have starved to death within the week.

Elle... it wasn't the first time he thought of her in the past few days but for the first time, he was grateful to be thinking of her. Even though the circumstances weren't ideal, he was grateful for her help. Compared to Leigh, whom he was confused about in multiple ways and Jane, who was more of an acquaintance/drinking buddy, Elle was a bright spot in the otherwise dark and depressing void that was now his life.

But he was going to worry about that later; now he just wanted to get something to satisfy his hunger. He changed his clothes and washed his face before leaving the room.

Elle entered the small bakery that had become her haven away from work. She had been coming here as long as she had been employed at the hospital. After her world crumbled around her this place was the only part of her life that had any sort of stability; Ford never knew that she liked to eat here on occasion and now he never would. She planned to have a caramel Vanilla latte and a buttery croissant for breakfast before Laura dragged her back home to look for a layer and a new apartment that wasn't tainted by Ford. The worse part about this was Sam; he was asleep when all this happened, and he had to have been confused as to why his mother hadn't been home since yesterday. Her heart broke knowing the suffering she was going to be placing on Sam, but his parents could no longer be together...

Elle let out a sigh and pushed the thought from her mind. She would deal with it went the time came for now, she was going to enjoy her breakfast. She made her way to the line behind a familiar person but she was so caught up in her thoughts that she failed to realize this until she was the 2nd person in line and a familiar name reached her ears "Hot chocolate and croissant for a "Y/N L/N" Elle looked up in shock and for the first time registered the familiar hair and build of her former patient. "Y/N" she said aloud causing the man before her to turn around and find the blonde-haired nurse who took care of him standing behind him "Nurse Elle" she said slowly, surprised to see his friend. "Lucky me." He said a small smile gracing his lips "would you like to join me for breakfast? I'd like someone to talk to." He said with a small smile. Elle felt her heart skip a beat. It wasn't quite asking her for a date, but after everything she knew that now was the time to get what she wanted and what she wanted now was Y/N

Trying to rid her mind of unbidden thoughts Elle returned her friends smile and nodded "I'd love to join you for breakfast" Y/N." she said, grabbing her own meal and taking him to a nearby table. The two sat down in silence; despite inviting her to sit down and talk to him Y/N wasn't sure what to say; back in the hospital the two only spoke about his recovery and exchanged small pleasantries. Elle knew never to talk about his family and Y/N wasn't much for talking at the time. So now here Elle was with the man she was crushing on and neither knew what to say. the sounds of the shop surrounded them, nothing said between the two until Y/N decided to ease the tension and cleared his throat "I take it you come here often". It was the first thing that came to mind, and he couldn't help but wince at the shocked look that appeared on her face. She must have thought it was a pickup line and he was about to profusely apologize when she suddenly let out a giggle a melodious chime that almost shocked him but Y/N couldn't help but feel captivated by the sound of her laughter for the briefest of instances before she stopped, giving him a smile and unconsciously flicked a loose hair behind her ear. "I do actually" she chuckled before gazing out the window as if seeing a life that had swept by her. Elle bit her lip trying to hold back the tears and looked back at Y/N, and she realized that she hadn't stopped the tears as he was suddenly looking at her with concern. "Elle..." he whispered.
