Chapter 1

Here you are, out on your own, only 19. You decided to go to the best college you applied for that accepted you, and even more exciting? Its in London, England! It's your first time out of America but your best friend, Alfred, said you would be fine. "Yo (nickname)! Don't worry about it. I actually know a guy in England, that just so happens to be going to the same school you are!" He said to you when you where waiting for the plane. "Really? Whats his name?" You asked. Arthur, Arthur Kirkland. He's actually my uh...never mind, but he's picking you up from the airport when you land." He said.

The plane shuddered and the pilot came on the intercoms announcing that you where about to land. You lift up the window blinds to see London around you. "Ma'am, any trash?" The flight attendant asks you. "Oh, no ma'am." You say then go back to looking out the window. The famous clock Big Ben, The London Eye. You where seeing it all with your own eyes!

The plane landed and you headed to the baggage claim to pick up your stuff. You grab your bags then a hand grabs one of the bags. "H-hay! That's my bag!" You turned to the owner of the hand to see a tall Brit with short flowly blond hair, bushy eye brows, beautiful emerald eyes, and a pleasant smile. "Oh, so sorry love, where are my manners? I'm Arthur Kirkland." He said taking all of your bags. "Ah yes, i forgot Alfred said you where picking me up." You say, looking at the Brit in wonder.

Alfred didn't say he was cute! You thought. "Shall we go madam?" Arthur said, motioning to the doors to the parking lot. "Y-yeah, let go." You said, following him. "(Name) right? I'm happy to formally welcome you to the one and only London, England!" He timed it perfectly to end when you walked out the doors. "I'm actually here!"you squeak, earning a small smile from Arthur. "Yes, and in good condition considering the time you spent with Alfred" he scowled when he said your best friends name.

"I thought you and Alfred were friends." You say, quite surprised. "Please, he's to loud and obnoxious, even over Skype my neighbors complain." He said. He must have noticed your discomfort because he at you and concern fell over his face. "But i'm sure your nothing like him, no worries love." He said. You smile at his concern, "Thanks Arthur." You say as you both walk to his car. "It is very much my pleasure madam." You feel your face get hot so you looked up. It was the beginning of summer break so the air was work and the sun was beating down on you.

"You flew in on a nice day. Usually it's raining." Arthur said. "Nice, so uh, where will i be staying?" You ask, regretting the second you asked. "You mean you have nowhere to go?" You shake your head. "Well, i no it is awkward and quite unsettling since you have just met me but, i have a spare room in my apartment." He said. A-Are you sure? I'd hate to intru-" "No-No, it will be my pleasure." He insisted. "O-OK" you managed to choke out. Your face was red, and you knew it. "Ah, here we are. I'll put your bags in the back." He said walking up to a green car. "Alright, Thanks again Arthur."

Two weeks later and you've gotten settled down in one of the three spare bedroom in Arthur's apartment. After the second night you started cooking to save yourself from the burnt scones Arthur makes. "(Name)?" you look up from your thoughts as the Brit says your name. "Yes?" you say back. He's been quite fidgety all day and seemed nervous. "I was wondering if maybe you wanted to walk around London with me tonight?" He said, trying to keep eyes contact. "Sure! I've been wanting to go anyway!" you say as you get up. "Splendid." he says smiling.

You where almost ready when someone tapped on your door. "Yes?" you say. "(Name), is there anywhere specific you would like to visit tonight?" His voice muffled by the door. "Hmm, I'm not sure. How about we decide once we are out and walking around?" you say as you open the door to see Arthur in a Blue suit with a tie and all the fancy stuff. You where in a simple jeans ans white T-shirt. "Is that what your wearing?" he asked puzzled. "N-No! I just threw something on to talk."

You shut the door and quickly look for your dresses. You find a ocean blue sparkly dress that you use to wear when your dad forced you to go to adult services. It was simple and easy to put on, you throw it on and your navy blue flats. You open the door to find Arthur still waiting for you. He looked at you for a moment before looking away and scratching the back of his head. "Everything ok?" you ask him. "Yes, shall we?" he says holding out his arm. Your arms intertwine and you hid your face.

"So, where to first?" You ask him. I was thinking the London Eye first. I have reservations for seven." he said. You look at his watch, only 5:30. "we still have an hour and a half till then. How about the shops?" you ask looking around. "Of course." He sighed and looked at his watch. "or, I have another idea." he said. "the zoo?" "I'd love to!" you squeal. "I haven't been to a zoo since grade school." you say calming down.

You both agree then take a bus to the zoo. You've seen Arthur relax at the apartment but you haven't seen him him childish like he was now. "Someone looks more excited then I am!" You giggled as he scowled at you witch caused laughter to erupt from the Brit as well. You both had fun imitating the animals that if Arthur wouldn't have looked at his watch when he did you both would have been late to this 'reservation'. You caught the bus to the London Eye and made it there just in time.

"Two for the seven o'clock round." he said to the girl running the Eye. "Right this way sir." she said as she led you and Arthur to one of the empty areas inside the pod. "Whoa!" you say as the platform rises and you lose your balance. Arthur catches you and helps you stand. "So why the great night? If you don't mind my asking." You say looking up at Arthur. "You'll see soon love." He says looking down at you, emerald eyes sparkling. You look away and distract yourself with the view.

The platform stopped moving and Arthur motioned for you to follow him. He walked over to a more secluded part of the room. "(Name), I know we have only known one another for not even a month, but getting to know you has been the best few weeks of my life since i left home." He said, looking into you (e/c) eyes. You were shocked by what he was saying.. "I brought you out tonight to show you i'm not always proper, and i do know how to have fun." he said grabbing your hands. "I guess what i'm trying to say is, (Name) will you be my love?" he said. You both turned red but held each others gaze.

"Yes, of course!" you say leaping into a hug. He hugs you back and hold you close. "I have one more question." He said as you pulled away. "Yes?" you say with a smile. "May I...May I kiss you?" he says and you thought he couldn't turn any more red. You nod your head and close your eyes. Arthur pressed his lips toy your gently. The kiss was sweet and you felt as if you would melt. You smiled when you pulled away and leaned into him.
