(Joel's POV)
It's the morning after the night before. Aka the morning after I saw a girl who I instantly fell in love with. I decided it was love after
a whole night of thinking. I got about an hours sleep I guess. I couldn't get her out of my head. I just regret so much. I regret not speaking to her, not stopping her from leaving. Urgh. Why am I so stupid?
I think it's love because I've never felt like this before. I mean, yes I've had girlfriends who I've been in "love" with but looking back after feeling what I did with her yesterday, that must've been love. I've never experienced so many emotions in one moment. I was happy, nervous, overthinking, excited... The list goes on. I don't know whether to tell the boys. They'll just laugh and say I'm being stupid and then make loads of sex jokes. No. Maybe it's best they dont find out I'm such a softie yet.
Today is a day full of recording. I just need to splash my face with water and get out of this state.
(Sharon's POV)
Okay. So I got a bit of sleep last night but that guy is still on my mind. I wanna phone the girls but they'll just think I'm being stupid. I know there was something there. I mean, they say you're meant to feel a spark when you feel love, right? Well I feel like a one woman firework show.
I think I just need to go to work and try to forget. (phone rings)
"Hey Sharon! Do you want a lift this morning? I mean, jet lag etc.." It's Anna.
"It was only a 2 hour flight! I need the air anyway so I'll walk. Thanks though, see you in a bit!" I laughed.
Part of me didn't want to be alone with my thoughts but I really need to clear my mind.
...
Mmm. Costa. It may make me a little late but y'know. Jetlag. Haha. I grab the window seat, watching the world pass by. London is such a busy place. So many people just rushing around, no one pauses for thought. Also, there are so many pigeons. I've never known why.
(Joel's POV)
I hate walking around london but it's so much easier than driving. OMFG pigeons just get out of my way. I've had about 5 million calls from Ryan asking where I am. I may of fallen asleep again...
I didn't even have time for breakfast, that's how rushed I was. I hate having to get breakfast on the move, I have bags to carry and it's just difficult. Ryan had better be happy.
...
Hmm. Costa or Starbucks? Wait.. Is that? Oh. My. God. In the window of Costa. It's her. Well, at least I think it is. Ooh well, Starbucks who?
(Sharon's POV)
Damn. I forgot my book. Thank god for the magazines on the table, even though they do take up space.
I think I'll people watch for a while. I like doing that, it kinda puts me in my own little bubble which may come in useful right now what with the situation.
There's a little kid with his mum walking to school past the window. Aaaaw. But eew no. I'll skip the couple snogging each others faces off in the corner. To be honest, I'm surprised they're up this early. They're probably skipping college.
My thoughts have been interrupted.
"Hi, do you mind if I join you?" It's a deep voice, one I don't recognise yet I feel as if I know from somewhere. He walks round to the other chair. The blue eyes. The hair. And that same smile. How can he be here? How did he find me? Oh and my mind was starting to become so clear and distracted. Back to square one.
"Of course not." I tense up. What if I ruin it? Oh god Sharon. Pull yourself together.
(Joel's POV)
"So, I saw you at the airport yesterday! Just thought I'd come and say hi when I saw you in here! And grab some coffee too... obviously..."
WHAT AM I DOING POINTING OUT THE FACT I WANTED COFFEE IT'S IN MY HAND. She must think I'm an idiot.
She just giggled.
"Hey, I'm Joel by the way!" I'm gonna go for a handshake. She may leave me hanging but y'know.
She shook my hand. "Hiya Joel, I'm Sharon!" Sharon. What a beautiful name. I don't know what I expected. I thought she was more of a Shona, close enough. She's gorgeous. Her hair just glistens in the light whilst her smile makes her eyes sparkle. I think I'm in...
"Oh Ryan quit phoning me" I blurt out at the sound of my ringtone. "Sorry I've gotta get this" I say as I point and head towards the door. She just nods and smiles.
"JOEL where are you?" I hear them all scream. How do I explain to them that I'm in costa talking to a perfect stranger?
"Guys I'm on my way, I didnt get much sleep so when I did fall asleep I overslept... Sorry! Be there soon!"
Damn. I'm gonna have to make my excuses and leave.
"Hey Sharon, I'm really sorry but I'm gonna have to go, I'm sure I'll see you around! Infact here..." I write my number down "Text me and we can meet up some time?" She takes the paper and nods. She's still smiling.
"Bye Joel!" The way she says my name. It's perfect. Her voice is angelic.
(Sharon's POV)
I still can't believe it was him. Joel. Gorgeous, blue eyed, quiffed boy Joel. And the smile. Now I have a name and a number to go with that smile! My heart feels as if it has wings right now, I mean, I don't think I've been this happy since my last relationship. And he wants to meet up. As friends? Or was that code for asking me out? So many more questions come with the answers I've gained.
I'd better get to work. I've already had 6 paniced messages from Anna which I ignored. To be fair, I was, erm, busy...
