~He Saved Me... For Now~

Chapter 2: Running Into Him

I walked around England and saw a store. Forever 21? I walked inside and saw so much beautiful clothes. I looked around the store but couldn't buy anything because I'm saving my money up to get a house close to my sister's house. My patents are always nagging me to move out and get a life which is what I'm trying to do. I walked out if the store and accidentally bumped into someone.

"Oh god. I'm so sorry." I told the person I bumped into. I picked up the stuff he dropped and handed it to him.. Once I saw his face I almost fainted. It was Alfie Deyes. I guess I was staring because he snapped his fingers in my face. "Sorry." I blushed looking down. He just smiled and said, "Well I'm Alfie. Alfie Deyes." I smiled and said, "I'm Summer. Summer Foreman." we shook hands.

Alfie and I began to walk around some more and hung out some more. It turns out he doesn't live too far from my sister or me once I move here. I explained to him that I'm working 2 jobs to save up and buy a house here in England. "Well why don't you move in with your sister?" I shook my head and responded, "She has 2 kids she doesn't need someone else in there." he smiled and offered, "Why don't you come live with me until you find a place?" I shook my head disapproving.

"Oh come on it'll be fun! Just 2 friends doing crazy stuff! That sounds fun right?" Alfie begged and I laughed nodding a bit."So what do you say?" He asked and I looked at him. "Fine. But I have to pay half the bills!" I quickly added and he stuck out his pinky. "Pinky promise?" I giggled and wrapped my pinky around his. I kissed my pinky and said, "Kiss it. Then you can't break it." Alfie laughed a bit and kissed his pinky.

"Oh shoot I forgot I have to go back to London. Its going to take forever now, stupid traffic." I complained and Alfie laughed, "Don't worry I'll take you. Where's your car?" I pointed to the red shiny mustang and tossed the keys to Alfie. He got in the driver's seat and I got in the passenger side. He started up the car and we headed back to my house.

We finally arrived at my house and I started to pack my things as Alfie waited in the car. "Where are you going Summer?!" My parents asked. "I'm moving out just like you guys always want me to!" I yelled back. They went silent and I finished packing the last suitcase. I went downstairs with 3 suitcases and walked out of the door to my car. Alfie helped me put my things into the trunk and backseat of the car. We then went back to England.

We arrived at a tall beautiful house and Alfie opened his door. I took off my seatbelt and was about to open the door when Alfie opened it for me. I smiled and thanked him as I stepped out. I felt like this could be a new start for me just forgetting everything and moving in with Alfie should be amazing.

Alfie helped me unpack my bags and put them away. My room was big and had different quotes all around the room and in the middle where my bed was, a big portrait of Alfie. "Sorry about the walls. My friend and I kind of painted it out of boredom." Alfie explained and I shook my head. "I love it. Its so beautiful."

I smelt something cooking and went downstairs to see what the smell was. My nose led me to the kitchen and I looked at Alfie cook lunch for us. He was making toasted bread and some Sunnyside up eggs with some sausages. I smiled at him as he finished and he handed me a plate smiling.

"My girlfriend Zoey is coming over later if you want to meet her." Alfie said. I nodded as I ate and heard a knock at the door. "She's early." Alfie said getting up from the table. He came back hand in hand with a girl that was about 5'4 and had brown and blonde hair. It was brown in the top and more blonde on the bottom. I smiled and introduced myself, "Hi I'm Summer." I held out my hand.

She shook my hand smiling and saying, "Hi I'm Zoey! Nice to meet you!" I smiled and said, "You too Zoey." We then got to talking. Zoe ate some eggs toast and drank some juice as well. I finished eating and took my plate to the kitchen to wash it. I could hear Zoe and Alfie arguing... "You can't just pick up a random girl and bring her into your home Alfie! She could be a killer or something!" Zoe argued. "She's not like that! I know it! Look if you're always going to argue with me when you see me maybe its best if we... Break up."

I washed all the dished in the sink until I heard a door slam shut. I finished up washing the last plate and walked over to a crying Alfie. "I'm so sorry Alfie... If I would've known that was going to happen I wouldn't have moved in." I apologized. Alfie shook his head and said, "It wasn't you Summer. She's always arguing with me whenever she sees me. It just wasn't working out anymore."
