*My POV*

As soon as I  finish picking out the fruit and veg, push my trolley to the next section.  I'm still thinking of Brennen. I feel something weird inside my chest. Maybe I'm just sick. I plug my earphones into my ears again and I move on.


*Brennen's POV*

I'm happy that being in the supermarket makes me have a lower chance of running into crazy fans. But I meet them once in a while. It's weird- people at shops run into famous people but I can't even find my mum when I'm lost.  Anyways, I start to think of Meredith. Thats the  best time I've ever had with a fan.  Even though we met about an hour ago, when I think of her, I think of her as a very close friend. It is weird, I still have those ship name options floating in my head. 

I go over the types of cake sprinkles they have... a very difficult choice to make! So many shapes, sizes and colours. My mum doesn't like sprinkles, but it's my birthday tomorrow so I can chose any thing. 

Once I'm finished with the my hard decision of which sprinkles I should get, I walk over to the dairy section to get milk. To my surprise, well, not really but I spot  Meredith with the corner of my eye. I know what I have to do.

*My POV*

I go to the dairy section to get my and mum's favourite vanilla yoghurt. The yoghurt part is in the middle but the section is surrounded by crisp air. I start  jogging to get to the yoghurt faster, but I run into Brennen. To my relief, he grabbed my shoulders and smiled . 

"hey"- He said. It sounded kind of weird, a bit seductive. If we would have been very close friends, I would hug him but now if I hug him it would be very, I'm telling you, VERY weird and embarrassing.

''Hey " I answer back but I try to keep it casual. I feel worried that that wasn't on purpose and I'm worried that is was on purpose too...  I try not to think of it.  He starts looking at me and then he stares into my eyes. I stare back, we make eye contact, but I close my eyes and start a conversation so I won't get embarrassed.

"um, do you mind if I just get some yogurt, its right behind you, sorry, um,uh, ok" UGH, I JUST MESSED EVEY THING UP, YOU LOOK LIKE A LOSER, LIKE A PERSON WHO CAN'T CONTROL HER AWKWARDNESS I think to myself. Dang it. I try to get it, but he's blocking it and he's wearing a creepy face. 

"Umm, Brennen, do you mind if you just let me get my yoghurt... " He finally moves away and walks forward to get  milk. That didn't seem like him. I might be day dreaming.


*Brennen's POV*

I see Meredith heading towards the yoghurt, I need to creep her out.  I bump into her on purpose, hold her by the shoulders and smile. She looks very shy, confused and I can see that I put her into an awkward situation.

"hey" I say, to be honest, I tried to be a bit, just a tiny bit seductive and I made sure that I didn't sound obvious.

"Hey" she replies, in her shy and quiet voice. I have to admit, I have never met a girl and like her the same day we met. 

I start to stare at her awkwardly,then, we make eye contact. Meredith feels awkward, so she closes her eyes, and says something, but I don't pay attention. She tries to reach the yoghurt behind me, but I don't move. She tries to do it the second  time, and I move away to get milk. I can see she got confused. Great, now I need to follow her around.


*My POV*

I move on to the next section. I feel that someone is following me, so I turn around, and I see Brennen on the other side of the section I am in. Just to see if this is a coincidence, or he's following me around, I go to the makeup section, then to the hygiene section- where pads and tampons are. I was right, he is following me. I take a pad pack to make it not look as I was testing him, and walk away I'm almost at the cashier register, when he walks up to me.

"Um, Meredith, I know I've been like 'stalking' you around, which I call 'Intense research of an individual', but anyway, do you mind giving you phone number? Please?" He sounds kind of shy and guilty for 'researching me' but I give him my number anyway. Of course, I would, it's BRENNEN TAYLOR. This feels like a dream, but it's not, thats why I'm relieved, it's reality. Brennen and I walk towards the cashier together. What's next?

*Brennen's POV*

 I follow Meredith around several sections. She probably has spotted me by now, so to check if I'm following her or not, she goes to the makeup section, then, uh, to the hygiene section. I feel awkward and uncomfortable to show up in the 'woman's' section, so I just skip that section. I see her heading towards the cashier register. I go ahead. BE A MAN. I tell myself. I have to do this.

"Um, Meredith, I know I've been like 'stalking' you around, which I call 'Intense research of  an individual', but anyway, do you mind giving you phone number? Please?" I can't tell if she's happy or not,  will she even give me her number after the 'creepy face'?  YES, she did.This worked. Meredith and I walk to the cashier together. What's next?
