wintergirls

November 2, 2015

Something weird happened today. I was sitting in Starbucks sipping on my coffee as I read a new book I just picked up from the library. I was so into my book that I didn't notice that someone sat in the seat across from me. The person cleared their throat, I immediately look up and saw two greens eyes staring at me.

"Hi." he said with a cheeky grin.

"Hi," I said back to him looking at him intently, he was gorgeous, beautiful emerald eyes, long brown hair that was a but messy but fit him perfectly. But he wasn't Cody.

"What are you reading?" he asked, knocking me out of my thoughts.

"Wintergirls," I told him as i lifted the book up from the table to show him the cover.

"It must be really good since you got so into it, you didn't even notice I've been sitting here for the past five minutes," He chuckled a little as he spoke.

I could feel my cheeks blush a little bit, I do tend to get so lost in books to notice any of my surroundings.

"Well my name is Harry," he told me as he stuck his hand out for me to shake. I took his hand as I locked eyes with him. Something about him seems very familiar. I know his face from somewhere, Ive seen it many times but i just couldn't place where.

"And yours is...?"

"Oh, um sorry, I'm Peyton"

"Beautiful name"

I blushed at his comment looking down at the wooden table where my book lay.

I looked up and back at him again.

"Harry, just wondering do I know you from somewhere, I know your face from somewhere... I just can't place exactly where..." I spoke slowly

He just smirked at me and raised his eyebrows

"So you really don't know who I am?"

"No, no I'm sorry, should I?" I ask him, a bit confused.

He just slid a folded napkin across the table and i picked it up, confused, I opened the napkin and saw a number written.

"Text me and i'll tell you who I am." Then got up and walked towards the exit, he looked back at me before walking out and winked.

I just sat there speechless, he was so mysterious yet confident when he talked. I stared at the napkin for about 5 minutes debating whether I should text him. I shouldn't, I can't do that to Cody.
