Lonely (together)

Chapter 2

Harry's POV

I wake up at 5 am, and I couldn't go to sleep again so i go downstairs to the gym. I finished almost 7 o'clock. I feed my cat Grey (she's black) then I ate breakfast and shower before I went to work. Usually I work from eight until five sometimes six pm. I took the elevator to my office, my assistant gave me my schedule and we got through the meetings and dinners i needed to go to this week. I can handle everything at my company, the difficult clients, the precautions, the pressure, but I still hate those fucking dinners with fake faces.

I went out of my office at 6. I have nothing to do for the rest of the night. So i pull my car to her apartment and get out of my car. Since she's the only one who lives in the building, that means the lights belong to her apartment. I couldn't know what room this is but there's a shadow moving inside. I keep watching until the lights turn off. I stayed a bit longer, then got to my place. I keep reading the files over and over again. I searched about all her family members, her parents have no relatives nor does she. I made for myself food and turned on the TV and watched a movie. It's 11 pm so I went to bed I rarely go out especially since I gave up on dating. Everyone is so boring and only go out with me for my money. For now the only creatures I care about are Grey and Angel. I slept until 6 am and woke up and did it all over again.

I go near her work building around 3 pm act busy while I look around. She passed right away and went to the grocery store. I go right behind her and grab random things. "Hi, what a coincidence" am i fucking nervous? Shit. "Oh" she smiles softly. "Where do you live? We must live so close to each other" we actually do, it just 10 minutes walking. "Near" she mumbled and turned to face me I almost lost it. She wore long pants, the pants so tight on thighs, tempting to bite. The same white shoes and pink crop top so low, I looked at her breasts line and between them a red rose necklace. Fuck me. And an oversize unbuttoned white shirt. "Going to work?" There is no way I am serious. "Hmm" she sook her head no. She looked up at me with her wide blue eyes, they were a bit watery and so tired. She bit her lip and turned around and walked away. When we got out I called her "Lillian" she looked at me she's an Angel. "can I have your number?", she walked away without looking back. I wanna die.

Lillian's POV

My heart throbs so hard while I'm walking (running) to my apartment, when I saw him I couldn't breathe. I don't know what's getting into me. But I couldn't take my eyes off him.

Two days later I have a day off so there I am, setting in the coffee shop and reading. I don't like to go outside but i needed to. Besides this place is not crowded at all. There's barely three people.

I was so busy reading that I didn't notice that someone was standing next to me until he said "Is this chair taken?" Green eyes looked down at me with so perfect curls around that beautiful face, so pink lips, and so cute nose. Old band shirt, tattooed arms, a cross necklace, and fingers full of rings, will be okay if I sketch his hands and lips? STOP! .

I shook my head no. He set. I feel my heart beating so fast in my chest. "Reading huh" he smile at me and god. He's so gorgeous. "What are you reading?" I flip my book and show him. "Never Let Me Go, about what?" I can't breathe, I can't talk. "Um.. ahh- a.. just start it" " you know I watched the movie, it was amazing i am sure you will like it" then why you asking me?.

movies? I hate movies. I watched a couple back then when the girls did movie night, and I never liked it. I hate watching TV, the only thing I watch is Barney and the last time I watched it when I moved to my apartment and was too scared so I rewatched. Comforts me.

"Will see" i mumble, "what's your favourite movie?" He moved his chair closer to the table and put his cup on the table, black coffee, like mine. "I don't have one", "no way everybody has favourite movie" I smiled, i couldn't think of anything to say.

"Okay what's your favourite book?", yes i can answer that. "There is a lot of, but now I think The Course of Love" looked at my lap "that's a good book! I read it twice" he said and his smile got bigger. We sit for a couple minutes in silence. "What's you do for work?", "write short articles..you?" "Where can i read them?" He asked, where? No where. "Um.. they never been published" I said and my heart sank. "Why?" He looked at me expressionlessly. "I'm a beginner, and there are better writers than me who just want me for my ideas and they pay me well". He said nothing. "You?" I said after a few seconds without looking up. "Me.. I work at a security company" wow he must feel safe all the time and— "let go out sometimes" he asked me to go on date with him or w— "you know as friends do?" Oh.. of course he doesn't want to date me who wants? "Um sure" "give me your number" I put my number on his phone with trembling hands, please god don't let him notice. He said See you soon and go out then I took a breath I didn't know I was holding it back.
