My life was always fine and focused until I met her.

The cool breeze of California's October wind blows against my tatted skin as I walk through the park snapping pictures. Fall has always been my favorite time of the year, the way the leaves start to form into a new color, not too cold and not too hot.

Trying to get a picture of the pond as the leaves fall around it I take a step back, but the pictures still aren't coming out as I like then out of no where I am hit. My camera falls to the ground cracking my expensive lens.

"Shit!" I shout as I turn around to see who hit me.

"Oh that sucks you dropped your camera" The girl who hit me giggles as she bends down the pick my camera up

How does she have the audacity to laugh and say that I dropped my camera when she very well knew that she hit me... I'm pissed actually I'm beyond pissed I'm fucking fuming. I saved up for months for that fucking thing and she just wants to laugh like it's nothing?!

"Why in the hell are you laughing the camera cost me a lot of money-" Before I can finish my sentence the red-ish-strawberry head looks up at me from her crouched position and I finally take a good look at her face and she's not smiling anymore, but she is beautiful. "You know what I'm sorry just give my camera." But why in gods name am I apologizing?

She stands up to hand the camera over to me and apologizes

"Yeah um I sorry I kinda of ran into you I wasn't paying attention to where I was running... I'll buy you a new one I promise..."

Buy me a new one? Does she not realize how much these things cost?

"Yea... Um" I scratch the back of my head debating on what I should say and for some reason I'm at a lost for words... She quickly answers for me.

"Really it's no big deal my father can write you a check or something and I could just meet up with you later on and bring it to you?"

Oh. She has money. Of course her father can just write a check to save the day. "Yeah sure I'll just give you my number and we can meet up later because this camera basically pays my bills..."

"Oh o-okay." She stammers. "Again I'm sorry, my name is Lacey Masters." As she reaches her hand out to shake mine.

"Harry Styles." I try to say coolly.

"Alright later Harry and I love your accent, I'll call or text you later." She giggles as she runs back off.

I watch her run off around another corner then turn around and decide to head back home examining my now broken camera. I reach the steps of my small but comfy apartment but before I can get settled in my phone chimes. I glance at it and it is an unknown number. I unlock my phone and go to the text.

xxx-xxx-xxxx
I have your check if you would like to meet today?    -Lacey masters

I text back saying yes while adding her contact and almost instantly she texts back.

Lacey Masters
Okay cool :) How does 3:30 sound at the Starbucks on eldorado?

I check my watch and realize that it is 2:49 right now and I agree to meet her then. I'll start heading out in about 30 min to the coffee place that has girls hypnotized, I don't see what all the hype is I mean it's just coffee?
