Lucky To Have You

Chapter 1:First day at London

*alarm goes off*

Ugh, it's still early.Why should I be up anyways?I grunted as I stood up.It was still at dawn when my alarm went off.Well, guess I don't really have a choice do I?I then brushed my hair and prepared for the rest of the flight.

I lived in Chicago, Illinois United States.I am a very quiet girl who only keeps her secret to herself because of a dark past.I once was a scholar back at my Highschool, but when my mom died because of cancer, everything went down.I was the only child and my dad was dying every single day because of mom.I was 16 when my mom died.On the bright side, I still had my dad.After a couple of years, I thought everything was gonna be okay, But I was wrong...after 7 years of my mom's death, dad went next.He died because of suicide.He didn't want to kill himself but he thinks it was the only way to see mom again.I, on the other hand was very stressed out and I also attempted to commit suicide.I couldn't do it.I could not kill myself just because of a dark past.I felt a voice whispering to me...and it said "Now is not the time to give up, follow your dreams and make your parents proud" as soon as I heard that voice, I was startled when my phone suddenly rang.It was my grandpa.You see, my grandpa loved me ever since I was little.He was the one who made me laugh all the time.When I picked my phone up, I read his message saying "Sweetie, this is your grandpa.I'm so sorry about your father.If I could help, would you wan't to come here to London to live with me and your aunt?It still depends on your decision sweetie...call me if you made your decision." And that's where it hit me...I'm going to London...to the place I always have wanted to go to but because of my past it stopped me from doing what I wanted in life...

I quickly packed all my stuff and called my grandpa back."Hello?"he said with a cheerful voice."Grandpa, I would love to go to London and live with you guys....thank you so much grandpa...love you."I told him that.

When I was at the airport, I was quite surprised on how he already booked my flight.Anyways, I was still nervous before I got into the plane.

After I found my seat, I was glad that it was a window seat!To be honest, I was actually proud of myself until I sat down and listened to "Perfect Strangers" by Jonas Blue whilst wearing a pair of headphones...then suddenly this tall, blonde guy sat next to me..."Hey? My name is Simon.Simon Minter"he said with a quite confident tone."Oh hi!I'm Liz".Liz Lewis".I said with a nervous voice.I guess he'd be my seatmate for the rest of the flight.

After a while of knowing each other, we had conversations about ourselves.Of course, I did'nt tell him about my past.It was a good time though, I mean having a friend on your flight would be a great way to stay occupied.Just a couple hours later, I went to sleep.And when I woke up, this happened...

Liz's POV

"Hmmm, this bed is comfy..."

Those were the words I said.Shit!
Then I suddenly woke up completely to find myself laying on his shoulders."Um,Liz?are you okay?his words came into my mind and as a response I apologised to him for being such a mess...

-Next day-

When I got to the Airport in London, I quickly grabbed my phone to take a selfie.I looked for  a cab to get to my Grandpa's house.And I got his message saying where his address is.I finally got there, and I knocked on the door to see my Grandpa open it.We both hugged of course!and I also got my aunt Diana to hear from me.The three of us had dinner and after that, I went to my room and fell asleep.

A couple of weeks later***

I woke up again at 11 am and because of too much excitement, I took a shower, and prepared myself for the rest of the day.I was told by grandpa to explore London and to have fun even when I'm all by myself.So I got out of the house and waited for a cab to get a ride.I went to "The world famous, London eye".I got out of the cab just blocks away from the ferris wheel just because I wanted to take a walk and admire London.Just before I was about to cross the street, I bumped into a guy who's face might seem quite familiar.I fell on the sidewalk and he helped me out and at the same time, apologising. I of course forgave him but to be honest, It was my fault because I really was'nt looking.

I still didn't recognise his name but I think I have met this guy before and I just couldn't remember him.He just smiled at me and that made me confused.I feel like I recognise his voice but not completely.I just stood there staring at him dead in the eye.
