Left my ♥ in London...

Settle In

Chapter Two; Settle In.

We just stepped off of the first plane. Now we're piling our little bags into our 6 hour rental car. Right now, we're in Ireland. We have to board one more plane to get to London. Ohhh the joy..

*One Day Later, In London.*

Today we finally arrived in London, England. I haven't stopped texting Aeron. God, I miss him so much, I  can't bare it, It's June 21st and my parents are unloading boxes into our luxurious two-story house. I snuck off to go look around town.

I stopped at one shop called Jack Wills. I walked in, not expecting much, but to my surprise, I was surrounded with what seemed to be an england Hollister. I had remembered to bring my wallet, and it had about $150 in it. I figured they'd take my money, to my surprise they did. I ended up walking out with a pair of shorts, a hoodie, a dress, and a pair of sunglasses. I brought my camera and iPhone with me as well, so I walked on over to the bridge just before Big Ben and snapped a couple of pictures. I immediately sent them to Aeron.

A couple years ago, we talked about where we wanted to visit later on in our lives together. Our top place? London. We only dreamt of being here and looking at Big Ben, walking the London Bridge, and watching the London Eye go round at night.

I caught a taxi to head back home. I accidentally caught a cab with someone in it. I decided to make the most of it and start a conversation.

"Sorry, for making you late to wherever you're going." I spoke.

He didn't say anything back. He kept looking out the window.

Out of nowhere, rain began beating down our windows and I saw the color in his face dim down a bit.

"Are you okay over there?" I asked. 

"Uhm... Yeah..." I heard him say shyly.  

"Do you want some gum?" That was my sad attempt at trying to make conversation. He made a slight giggle. 

"Sure." 

"My names Isabella. Bella for short."  

"Niall. I'm just short." We both laughed a bit after this.

After about twenty minutes, we arrived at the corner of my couldesac. As I was about to get out of the cab...

"Hey wait. Can I get your number? You seem fun to be around. I thought we could hangout sometime." 

"Um... Yeah sure." I nervously replied.

He brought out his phone and began typing in the numbers right after I spoke them.

"Thanks. I'll talk to you later?" 

"Okay. Bye Niall!"
