Kelly's pov

i was saving some money to go on a trip to NY for a while now. my friends and i recently booked the trip of a lifetime. we were staying at the four seasons hotel penthouse suit. i had a feeling this was gonna be the best vacation ever.

We went into our room and it was huge. I had never been in a hotel penthouse suit so this was a first. "This is awesome." Charlie said. We call her charlie but her full name is charlotte. We had our own living room and everything. The bathroom was enormous. Now i knew why some people chose this hotel. "Which room are you guys gonna pick?" Bieke asked. "Maybe cindy and me in that room and charlie and you in one bed. If you guys dont mind. I like my space and so does cindy." There was a room with one kingsize bed and in the other room you had 2 kingsize beds. Bieke and charlie were sharing the one bed and cindy and me one of our own.  They also had boyfriends, but this was a ladies trip so they stayed behind. Bieke had a son named kody and he was six. Her husbands name was clint. Charlie's boyfriends name was andy. Cindy broke up with hers a while ago. I had just broken up with mine. It wasnt easy for our kid either. She was only 3.5 years old. She was staying with him now that i went on this trip. "What are we gonna do today?" Cindy asked us. "maybe check out the town this evening?" Charlie said. I knew what she ment. She wanted to go out, but i really wasnt in the mood for partying. I just wanted to hang out with them without loud music and guys hasseling us the whole night.

Later that evening like i said we went out. I put on a nice short dress and a small heel. I was kinda annoyed with everyone. We were walking and they went in and i just stood still. I was reconsidering to go back to the hotel. I wanted to lid my cigarette and i noticed i didnt have a lighter with me. "Oh fuck come on. This day cant get any worse!!" I probably yelled a little to loud when a guy came up to me. "Here. Are you okay? Having a bad day?" I accepted the lighter from here without looking at him. "Thanks and yeah my day kinda sucks today." I gave it back and now i looked straight at him. It was norman reedus. Okay my day just got better in a matter of seconds. "Hi my day just got better." I blushed because i realized i just said that out loud. "Well your welcome. I'm norman and why are you so upset?" I smiled. "Hi i'm kelly. My friends are in there, but i really didnt want to go." He chuckled. "So standing outside in the cold, in the dark without a lighter and all alone is your best option." The way he said it was kinda that he had a point. "Yeah probably not my best idea so far. Maybe i'll just go back to the hotel." His eyes widened. "Why don't you come inside with me and i'll bring you back to the hotel safe afterwards." Was he being serious. Normans wants to hang out with me. This was a dream. "You're serious you want me to hang out with you?" He looked confused. "Yeah why not. You seem nice and cool and i dont want a girl like you to wander off alone in NY. Its not safe around here. So do you want to or not?" I smiled. "Yeah sure. I'll text my friends that i found something better for me to do." He blushed. "Are you blushing mr reedus? I'm telling you the truth you know. I rather hang out with you today than party my ass off with them. I just had a long trip and i'm not in the mood for guys hasseling us all the time." He frowned, but didnt ask further. I put out my cigarette, texted cindy and followed norman inside. There was a guard at the door asking my id. Did i look under age to him seriously. "She's with me." He sighed. "Yes mr reedus, but i still have to check her id." I rolled my eyes. "Here. Do i really look under 18 to you." I raised my brow. "Its just something we have to do miss but no you dont look under 18 at all." And gave back my id. Norman laughed a bit. As soon we were in, i slapped his arm. "Hey why did you do that?"he asked. "That was not funny. I have a kid that would be disturbing if i was under age." His eyes widened. "What? Why are you looking at me like that?" "Euhm nothing just i didnt expect you having a kid. How old are you if i may ask?" I chuckled. "You know its rude to ask a woman how old she is, but you're forgiven. I'm 30 and i have a kid who's 3.5 years old." He sighed. "So where's the father then?" I knew this was coming. "The dad is back home with her but we arent together anymore" another smile formed on his face. I wondered if it was because he knew i was single, but a man like him would never be interested in a woman like me.
