The Girl Who Worked In A Music Shop

Chapter 3

Pete PoV
I get out of the car in a much better mood then before, I wonder why.

As I walk into the living room of our studio the guys are all bunched up on the sofa watching the holiday, we're all hopeless romantics! When I walk in they all look up and I think Patrick might have a tear in his eye! Man he cries at every movie!
"Hey you went out quite fast! But damn you where gone a long time!" Patrick says as he follows me into the kitchen.
"Yeah sorry about that I just needed my coffee heh" I added the laugh because I'm that happy, what is wrong with me?
"So who is she? Tell me about it" he's good.
I tell him all about her, what she was wearing, how she smilies and even how she smelled...she smelt good.
"Dude, I'm guessing she fell right into you right? You know since your..I don't know...you?" He gestured his hands when he said that last bit.
"Actually... She didn't recognise me, I don't think she knows our band! I quite like it! It's like I'm in another world when I'm with her"
"Hey, woah man you just met her!" He had a point I did just meet her, but it feels like I've known her all my life...

I left the room I went upstairs to play my bass, I was right, Patrick had carefully placed it in its case and put the strap carefully folded inside. He's a good friend. I jam for a little bit but I can't get her out of my head, it's like her picture was inserted into my brain with permanent glue... But I don't mind. I keep imagining her laughing and thinking about things I should have said, I could have helped her with her job!

Just then my phone buzzes, I race to the coffee table and dive for my phone. I miss, of course, I land on the carpet face first and laugh to myself what am I doing? I grab my phone off the table and check my messages, it's from her...

Hey Pete it's Phoenix the girl who you spilled coffee over! I just wanted to let you know that I got the number from the cup!

Damn she's cute, I instantly write a reply...

Heya Phoenix! I'm so sorry about the shirt but to be honest I'm not sorry about bumping into you...I can't seem to get you off my mind.

My stomach flips when I hit send, I really hope she's not just another long shot...

Phoenix PoV
I read his text over and over, do I like him? Does he really like me? I screenshot the text and send it to Tyler, he immediately replies

OMG! He really likes you Phee! You should meet up with him! Maybe at the park? Or is that too sketchy?-Ty

I read his text and laugh, I think he's got a good point, I think about meeting him all night. Finally at 2 am I send him another text..

Pete PoV
She sends a text back, I can hear my phone go off next to me, I check the time. 2am. I open the message,

Hey Pete! I know it's late and you're probably fast asleep but I just wanted to tell you that I can't seem to get your name out of my head... I feel like I've heard it before? X-Phoenix

Shit, if she finds out my real name she will just act like all the other girls, or will she? She's different but a good different and I can't loose her to the crowd...do I text her back but this time I arrange a meeting because I'm aching to see her, I need to feel her.

Phoenix PoV
Hey Phoenix! No it's not to late! I hardly sleep anyway! I just wanted to know if you wanted to meet soon? I can do anytime just text when you can x-Pete

For some reason when I read the message my stomach feels like it's in knots, Tyler was right he did like me and he even gave me a place to meet him... I feel like I have to meet him, I don't know why but something in me has clicked and he's all I want.

Meet me in the park at 11am? I feel like I need to see you! X- Phoenix

He instantly replies

Yes! I will be there I promise! I need to see you too! x -Pete

Somehow a guy I've just met has suddenly taken up most of my thought ms and now all I want is to meet him. A lot can happen in a day...
