Part 9

*Friday afternoon*

 *Astons point of view*

 I was really looking forward to seeing Amelia again; there was just something about her that I couldn’t put my finger on, something intriguing and mysterious.

 I walked to the coffee shop after we’d finished our meeting in blackwater studio’s and found a table a little bit hidden away from the prying eyes of the public, just incase I was recognised by anyone, I think it would probably ruin it or at least create an awkward tension between us

 *Amelia’s point of view*

 *Buzz Buzz*

 *Im sat at a table behind the pillars as you walk in*

 Walking into the coffee shop I soon found the table Aston was sat at, watching him playing with his phone and his head tucked low as I walked up to him…

 ‘Amelia hi…’ he stuttered springing off his seat and kissing both of my cheeks before sitting back down

‘Hey…’ I smiled

‘good night shift…?’ he said

‘Not really…’ I sighed ‘had a bit of an emergency on the ward but its all fine now…’ I smiled

‘but your ok right?’

 ‘yeah course…’ I laughed ‘just ran around like a headless chicken all night’

We continued to talk until a waiter approached us asking if we were ready to order our coffee’s, and after peering at the menu’s quickly and ordering, he left us to talk some more…

 ‘Oh…before I forget…sorry about the other night…Sara said I was a little bit uncontrollable…’ I smiled laughing a little with embarrassment

‘Nah you weren’t, you were fun…’

 ‘Really?’ I laughed ‘Aston I was a mess…the photo’s show me that…’ I giggled

‘no you weren’t…you looked beautiful…’ he smiled touching my hand gently ‘and anyway, not many girls would get up and dance on a table…’

 ‘oh god…’ I laughed ‘I definitely drank too much that night…'

 ‘I think we all did…but we should do it again sometime…I had a great night…’

 ‘me too…’ I smiled. All of a sudden I found myself almost falling into Astons eyes, we both just sat there for about a minute, no words, just eye contact as he smiled at me and I smiled at him…all until the waiter arrived again with our drinks breaking us out of the daze.

‘thanks…’ I smiled at the waiter ‘So…what kind of work are you doing at the moment?’ I smiled taking a sip of my coffee

‘just promo really…got bits and bobs over the next week with meetings and then we go straight into loads of different radio and tv interviews for another two weeks…then we’ll be starting to plan the tour…’ he smiled

‘sounds like a lot…’ I laughed

‘Yeah…but I love it…’

We must have been sat there for over two hours by now just talking…I found him so easy to have a conversation with, he just kind of understood me; and I understood him…

 ‘as if its going dark out already…’ I said gazing out of the window

‘hey…you don’t fancy….going to grab something to eat do you….?’ He asked nervously

‘yeah sure…’ I smiled ‘nandos?’

 ‘you got it…’ he laughed

 After a little domestic over who was going to pay for the coffee’s I lost the battle, letting Aston pay in the end. I felt awful but he was so adamant and he’d already called dibs paying for our meal too….I couldn’t win with this boy…he said it was the polite thing to do and I couldn’t stop him…

 ……………………………………………………………………………………………………….

Leaving the coffee shop none of this felt real; it was a pretty cold night and I think Aston could tell I was shivering a little as he took his coat off and wrapped it around my shoulders…

 ‘I don’t want you to get cold though…’ I stuttered

‘Don’t be silly…as long as your warm…’ he smiled

 He walked me back to where I’d parked my car and we agreed that he’d follow me back to my house where I’d drop my car off and then he’d drive us both to the Nandos at London bridge; not far from my place…

 …………………………………………………………………………

We had a lovely meal, and I found myself really relating to Aston, getting closer to him, why was it that I’d only met him on three different occasions and already I felt as though I’d known him for a lot longer…

 ‘I hope we can do this again sometime…’ Aston smiled stood on my doorstep

‘yeah…I’d like that…’ I smiled

‘well…I guess I’ll see you soon then’

 ‘yeah’ I smiled

 He kissed me on the cheek before I watched him walk back down my pathway and get into his car, waving through the window before he sped off down the road…Id truly had an amazing day and hoped I’d have more days like this…
