I enter my friends apartment and it's the classiest place I've ever been. Apparently he was loaded but modest about it on the phone. So I settled in and then my luggage arrived. I then proceeded to fall asleep on the couch watch Friends reruns.
I woke up at God only knows what time to the sound of Caden busting the door open, and he wasn't alone. He had a blonde girl in his arms who was wearing nothing more than girls wear to the beach, only it was the middle of November. I decided to leave the apartment to get some fresh air. I then found myself walking into a bar called divide and ordered myself some Irish whiskey. The song playing as I walked in was "let her go" by the passengers and the next thing I know I'm crying into my glass. I felt like the biggest idiot. I left home to go to NYC and it's only been 48 hours and I already regret it. I miss my job, my mom, and the road.
All of the sudden the most beautiful girl I've ever seen sits down next to me and orders an Irish whiskey. She has a slim nose, butt chin, soft jawline, thin lips, brown straight hair which she had up in a barrette. But her eyes were amazing, I only got a glimpse of them but they told all about her life, she was broken yet strong and independent, and she had to grow up way too fast. She was perfect. NYC isn't so bad after all.
Can started a conversation with just me, and I gave it a chance. She asked if I was okay and I told her my story. She was a great listener and seemed genuinely interested in my life. She was dressed conservatively so the next question took me by suprise. "Wanna go back to my place?" She asked "oh and my name is Elle." I was shocked and gave her an unsure look before saying yes. She could tell I was shocked because she said "you know I don't do this often, but you need a New York experience."
We walked in the snow back to her place. As the snow fell it landed on her eyelashes and made her even more beautiful. We didn't say much on the way to the apartment and we both couldn't believe how fast we hit it off. Well as fate would have it she lives in the same apartment building as Caden and I. We got to the door and she led me in, I took of my jacket and shoes, as did she and we went into her bedroom. We were planning on having a crazy night, but instead we just layed together and talked, and it was honestly the most intimate night of me life. After 3 hours of talking she told me to grab onto her waist and kiss her, I did and it was magical. Every fear about NYC melted away. I finally found the one, and her name was Elle
