#16 First Encounters

Ashton: Since you were new in Sydney, because your dad's job relocated, your mum thought it would be a great idea to join your neighbourhood's running club. Out of everything you did, running was your only constant, you loved the rush you got, how free you felt with the wind blowing through your hair and your feet pounding onto the ground. Today was just like any other Wednesday at 5, you would meet up with the club and start your normal route. You would admit, you were extremely competitive when it came to running, you would almost always start off in the middle of the pack before making your way to the front of the group, always having to finish before anyone else. Once you made it to the front of the group you noticed a boy you'd never seen run with you before, he was about your age with ash blonde hair and an amazing physic. You gave him one look over before deciding to be your competitive self as usual and run right past him. You were enjoying being in the front of the group when out of the corner of your eye, you saw the boy from earlier run right past you. This is how things went for a while each of you out running the other before the both of you broke into a sprint, now extremely ready to win. The both of you finished in record time, panting as you were exhausted, you must have at least sprinted two kilometres. The blonde boy approached you as you chugged down your bottle of water, "Ashton" you said, extending his hands towards you, "Y/N" you replied, shaking his hand and smirking up at him. This would definitely not be the last you two would be seeing of each other.

Calum: Last night was probably the best night of your life, you saw your favourite band, All Time Low, preform live and it was amazing. You were on your way home, since the concert wasn't held in your city and decided to stop at a gas station to pick up some snacks for the road ahead. As you were standing in the chip isle, trying to decided between sour cream an onion or spring onion, you heard four really loud guys walk into the gas station as well. You had finally decided to just get both already when you turned to go and pay, walking right into one of those loud guys. You looked up, just about to apologize when you realised you had seen him from somewhere before. "Hey! It's concert girl" he said, simply confusing you even more, "Excuse me?" you said, not trying to sound rude but wanting to know what he was talking about, "Oh sorry, uh" he said, nervously rubbing at the back of his neck, "you were standing next to us at the All Time Low concert last night, I think" he said, and that's when you remembered him, "Oh yeah!" you said, now knowing who he was, sort of, "Hi there concert boy" you smiled, extending your hand, "I'm Y/N" you said, "And I'm Calum" he replied. "Well then, nice to see you again Y/N and I just wanna say you have an amazing taste in music" he said, winking, also obviously flirting with you. You decided to go along with it, after all you were always a sucker for guys that were into the same music as you. After a little persuasion you agreed to have lunch with him and the rest of his friends, where you guys raved on and on about how amazing last night's show was. You even left having four new phone numbers in your phone, one of which you were sure you'd be texting a lot in the near future.

Michael: It was your little brother's birthday in a few days, hence why you were at the mall in search of a great gift for him. He was turning 12 and you knew he wanted a video game, the only problem was that you'd forgotten which one it was that he wanted. Venturing into the video game shop you looked around, not having an clue at what you were actually looking for. Everything looked either too boring or too violent for your little brother. That's when you saw the cute boy in the corner of the shop with the brightly coloured hair, looking up and down the shelves stocked with all the latest releases. You walked over to him, slightly nervous for some odd reason. You tapped on his shoulder, "Uhm, hi I'm sorry, I know you don't work here, but you look like you know stuff about these games and I was wondering if you'de help me pick out a game for my little brother?" you questioned, hopeful as a smile crept onto the cute stranger's face, making his beautiful green eyes light up. "I'd be happy to help" he said, "What were you thinking of getting?" he asked, "Uhm, I honestly don't know, he's turning twelve though" you smiled, realising how utterly stupid you sounded right now, "Okay, well-" he leant past you to grab a game case right beside your head, "How about this one?" he questioned, "Perfect, thank you so much" you said, before starting to walk to the cash register to pay for the game. "Hey uhm - I never got your name sorry" he blushed, looking down, "but how would you like to go for a milkshake or something?" he asked, "sounds like a plan" you smiled, "oh and it's Y/N, by the way" you said, "Michael" he answered as the two of you made your way to the little café in the food court.

Luke: Your mother was a geography teacher at a high school in Sydney, so you were forced to attend tonights end of the year function with her, since your father was away on a business trip and she didn't want you to be left alone at home. So far the night consisted of either following your mother around awkwardly or standing in the corner alone and on your phone. Your mother was currently dragging you around behind her, introducing you to all of her co-workers. "And this-" she said, smiling at you, "is one of the maths teachers, Liz Hemmings" you smiled up at her, "Nice to meet you" you smiled, seeing a very attractive young man by her side, "This is my son, Luke" she smiled, you shook his extended hand, "Y/N" you smiled up at him, as the both of your mothers started talking about one or another work related thing, "So, do you go here?" you asked, trying to get a conversation started, "Yeah, I used to" he smiled, "I haven't seen you around here?" he questioned, "Oh no, I didn't go here" you answered him. "What do you say we go out for some ice-cream or something?" he asked, "We're the only ones under thirty here" you said, chuckling as he motioned around him. "Definitely" you agreed, before the both of you turned to your mums, telling them where you were headed, as they simply smirked at the both of you. Maybe going to the function wasn't such a bad idea.
