Evelyn's POV:

Going to the cafe every saturday (as usual)

I always come her because it was where my mother used to take me before she died.

She died about a year ago to breast cancer and I had nobody to share it with. My grandparents are dead and I don't have very many living relatives. I have a very small family and my dad had more family.

Now you're probably wondering where my dad is. To be honest I have not one single clue.He left when he found out my mom was pregnant and that pisses me off because my mom was a very nice and classy lady.

So now I live alone in England. As of now I have a job and I'm single and I'm 19. I work at a news paper publisher office and I write articles sometimes.

So I'm just walking through life. I got to the cafe and ordered a regular coffee and a scone.

I ate my scone at the cafe and took my coffee to go. I don't really have friends so my life is pretty lonely.

I've never been to a frat party or taken a shot of tequila. I've always just been shy and socially awkward.

I walk back to my house and notice a book shop. I go in there and it was amazing. You might not know but reading is a hobby. Instead of going out or something I read.

I was looking through a variety of books until a boy maybe a year or two older asked if I needed help.

"I don't think I've seen you come in do you need any help miss?" The boy says

"Oh no I'm fine, just looking" I say.

"Alright well find me if you do." He winked

That boy was not bad looking. Chocolate brown hair, curls, green eyes, I would be surprised if he didn't have a girlfriend.

I look around for a couple minutes and I started home.

Someone started screaming 'miss miss' and I turned around and saw that curly boy from the store.

"Miss, you forgot you're wallet on the chair" he says out of breathe.

"Oh my gosh thank you so much......"

"Harry. My names Harry" he smiles

"Well nice to meet you Harry. I'm Evelyn" I say shyly

"You are very pretty Evelyn. Maybe we could go get some coffee at the cafe one day?" He asks

"Are you working tomorrow?" I ask

"Nope." He says popping the 'p'

"Well maybe we could go in the morning say around.... 9:30?" I say

"That would be lovely" he says

"Well here's my number in case something happens." I pull out my planner and rip a page out and write my number.

"Oh yeah here's my number too" he says handing me his number.

"Well I guess I will see you tomorrow?" I say

"Indeed you will" he smiles

I walked home and couldn't stop thinking about him I wanted to know more about him. He was very cheeky and sweet.

He reminds me of how my mom would describe my dad. It makes me sick of how he left me and my mom.

I got home and watched tv all day. I took a nap and when I woke up I got a text from Harry...

'Hi love it's Harry!! Just making sure we were still on for tomorrow and making sure I got the right number😊'

'Yes Harry it's me and yeah were still on tomorrow😄'

'Great can't wait!!! Goodnight love sweet dreams💤'

'You too Harry'

And with that I fell asleep...
