Dedicated to Amelia O'brien
PING! I blinked. Where was I? What was that noise? That dream! It was so... Amazing. I met the boy of my dreams, dark, soft hair and dreamy brown eyes. It could be the ping of my heart going back and forth, back and forth. Oh... Just my phone. I looked up to see WHO could be texting me this time of morning. Who ruined MY dream? My messages read: Hey Millie, wanna go to the mall later? It was from my weirdo best friend, Macy. She wanted to meet up at the mall. I replied straight away, and jumped out of bed as soon as possible. I scooped my hair into a plait, applied some liquid foundation and eyeliner and set off.
It wasn't long before I reached her house, and we trailed all the way to the mall to go clothes shopping.
When we arrived, we headed straight to New Look and tried on some wacky shoes and really childish baby clothes, until the saleswoman asked us if we were alright. Being 17, we squealed like children and told her we were fine. We weren't babies! Sort of... Well we acted like them!
We wandered about for a bit, becoming a bit bored and going 'AWW MACY YOU FARTED' every three seconds. Eventually, we decided to head home. I was pretty eager to get back because I had an English essay due tomorrow. Turning, I dragged Macy with me and pulled her across the floor, hurrying a bit. Suddenly, I fell to the ground.
'Oh my god are you ok?' Said a familiar voice. I frowned. 'Fine.' Opening my eyes, I nearly screamed. Looming over me was a hunky looking boy, about 19 or 20 staring down at me with apologetic, brown eyes. He ran his fingers through his shiny brown hair and smiled. It was the boy from my dream. He grabbed my arm and hauled me up. The moment our fingers touched I felt a connection, as if we had known each other for many years - or many years to come. I stared into his eyes for about 5 seconds, I urged to hold him close and kiss him.
'Uhm...' I turned around, still holding hands with the mysterious boy. Macy was giving me the eyebrow signal, meaning 'what are you doing?'
I glanced at our hands and broke away from his clasp. I wasn't able to break away from the connection though. Oh god. Were my hands sweaty? Does my hair look a mess? Is this a dream? Oh, am I naked again? (long story).
'Hi, I'm Josh. Are you okay?' Josh. Stuttering, I replied, 'hi Josh.. I'm josh... I mean.... Millie. Yeah. Millie.' Oh god, I'm always making a fool of myself. He smiled at me, his perfect teeth gleaming making him look even more irresistible.'So, do you wanna go grab some dougnuts? I hear they do some real good Krispy Kremes here. You up for it?' He says casually. I wink at Macy as she jumps up and down, practically screaming with excitement for me.
'Okay, see you later Millie. Have fun!' She giggles, before running off.
'Wait, I-' I yelp, half of me wanting Macy to stay. But the moment I turned back around, I knew this was going to be fine.
He moved closer to me, and as we started walking our hands sometimes brushed against each other's. I longed to cling his hand. We started some small talk and sauntered past the shops, chatting happily until we came to the doughnut stall.'After you!' He smiles as I laugh and walk in. As the sweet smells of sugar drift through the air, nothing is sweeter than the thought of his lips against mine. I try and focus on the doughnuts (Macy's main task in life) but I can't stop thinking about him, and when I turn to look at him he seems to be looking at me, then we both turn away, blushing.
I know that you shouldn't believe in dreams, but is this love at first sight?
As we collect our doughnuts, we both go to take the bag at the same time and our fingers miss, going for each other's hands and missing the bag. It drops onto the floor, with our hands still together. He picks up the doughnut bag with his spare hands but keeps the other hand gripped onto mine. We can barely look at each other without one of us blushing.
We walk over to the table, and we are still holding hands tightly. I hope he never lets go. It seems to early. We met 30 minutes ago, yet it seems like I've known him a lifetime.
Yet it feels like love.
