Lou's p o v

I tiredly ambled downstairs to have breakfast with Grace. Her mum plated me up some scrambled eggs and bacon, I thanked her and joined grace at the table. It was absolutely delicious, Kate owned a very nice restaurant. When we finished, I washed our plates and Grace dried them.

I jumped in shower quickly and got ready for James to come and pick me up. I wiggled into my light blue skinnies and through on my oversized white top. I tucked the front of it into my jeans and put my black belt on. I put on my dark blue blazer and blow dried my hair, straightened my fringe, and lightly curled the rest. My eye make up was light shades of blue to match my blazer and jeans. Subtle blue though. I borrowed a few of graces pearl bracelets and sprayed some perfume.

I took one last look in the mirror before rushing to say goodbye to Grace and wish her luck. Its ten minutes to 11. 10 minutes until James gets here. Beginning to feel a little nervous, I jogged upstairs to fetch my favourite necklace.

"Loooouuuu!" Steve sang out as the door bell rang. I slipped on some dark blue ballet pumps, grabbed my bag and walked quickly to the door. I took a deep breath in, and opened door. James had his hands in his pockets of his skinny jeans, and Ray Ban sunglasses on. He was wearing a blue and white checked shirt with a white top underneath. He looked so good. He looked at me with a massive grin.

"Wow," he gasped, looking at me.

"You look stunning." Stunning. Not the cliché pretty, cute, or hot. He called me stunning. I found myself playing with my hair and smiling at the ground. I'm so awkward.

"You ready?"

"Two secs," I turned back into the house and called,

"Steevvve? I'm leaving now, text me when you want me home!"

"Okay munchkin! Have a blast!" I turned to James, who was still grinning, and closed the house door.

"Ready."

James's p o v

I found the house easier than I thought. It was huge! They must be loaded! I parked my car and walked up the drive, nerves were beginning to kick in. I rang the bell and looked down at my shoes. I hoped I looked ok. I want her to think I look good.. The door opened and on the other side of it was the most stunning girl. Just seeing her made me grin, she took my breath away. Her long, blonde hair shone in the sunlight and her beautiful eyes shimmered.

"Wow," I gasped, I couldn't help myself.

"You look stunning." She cutely run her hands through her hair and smiled.

"You ready?" I questioned.

"Two secs," she replied then called to a 'Steve'. Probably her friends dad. We walked to my car and I opened the passenger seat door for her. She thanked me and hopped in.

I put the radio on in the car and to my luck, Taylor swift came on. Lou now knew how much I liked her after our conversation at lunch yesterday, and she looked at me immediately. We both sang along loudly, and out of tune. By the time we reached the bowling alley we were both in hysterics. I got out of the car and went to open the door for her.

We were given our bowling lane and were asked to give our shoes in to get proper bowling ones

"Ah! Is that what that smell is!" Lou said to me cheekily as I took off my shoes. She let out a smile laugh.

"Haha! Well that's rich coming from you cheesy feet!" I replied in the same cheeky tone. She sarcastically gasped and then laughed again. We got to our lane and started to bowl.

Lou's p o v

I cannot believe how good James is at bowling! We're on out sixth round now and he has already got 3 strikes. I have only got two spares... I'm crap at this. It was his turn again. I watched him pick up his bowling ball and carefully aim it down the alley. The muscles in his arms tensed when he threw the ball, and of corse, he got another strike. He spun around on one foot and threw his fist in the air. How did he do it!

"Yessss!" He cheered.

"How the hell are you doing that!" I said with smiles. He laughed and looked into my eyes.

"Here, I'll show you." He gave me my ball and steered me up to the top of the alley.

"Now, put one foot in front of the other." He said slowly and gently. I did as he said. He pulled himself close to me and softly and slowly, dragged his hand across my back and rested it lightly on my waist. My heart pounded in my chest. He edged closer. I could feel his warm breath on my neck, causing goosebumps to rise over my skin.

"Aim the ball." He said a little quieter. His other hand brushed it's way up my arm holding the ball and onto my hand. A shiver ran down my spine. He gently moved my arm into position. I felt his soft hair brush across the side of my face.

"And then throw." He whispered smoothly into my ear. He guided my arm back into a swing and then we released the ball. He kept a hold of my waist until the ball hit the pins. Strike. I clasped my mouth. I found myself laughing. It worked! I turned around and he stood there smiling at me.

"See, that wasn't too hard." He said with that half smile of his. He made me get this feeling I can't describe. A warm feeling, that took me whole.

Bowling went on, and unsurprisingly, James absolutely thrashed me. He took me out for lunch after and we laughed so much my stomach hurt. I think I almost cried at one point! It feels like I've known him forever. I told him things I haven't told anyone else. He's so different to anyone I've ever met before. I feel like I could tell him anything. I feel like I could trust him.
