*Daniel's pov*
8:25am (same day)
I walk towards the café I found yesterday and as I open the door a girl bumps into me.
"My bad" I smile
"Sorry" she squeaks and then half runs towards a blue bicycle with a basket in the front.
I watch as she throws a book and her phone in the basket and speeds away.
"Woah" I watch her hair flow behind her and then I get a tap on my shoulder
"The usual?" The girl smiles at me sweetly
I nod unsure of what she means and I go and sit down in a booth in the corner by the window.
The girl comes back with a coffee in her hand and she places it down in front of me.
"Thanks" I give her a smile and then I pull out my journal.

The girl.
*8:27am*
She is so beautiful. Her hair is so long and beautiful. Her long blonde hair compliments her tan skin. She has bright blue eyes like mine but her are ocean blue. She seems shy though oh well maybe I will just have to get to know her.

I finish my drink and stand up putting a 5 dollar note under the dishes and I walk out the door. I see the boys walking back from the book store and Jonah was holding some old versions of Harry Potter.
"Of course" I chuckle and shake my head
"Who was the girl you were doing watching?" Zach points towards the girl riding away on the bike.
"Just a girl....I'm gonna go look for a book...you guys go ahead" I smile at them and I walk down to the book store
I see a girl in the window packing away books and I groan. Her name is Addison and she is so annoying. I walk in ignoring her and I walk to the back of the store looking at the old romantic books. What can I say the love in them make me gooey inside.
"Hey Daniel" I hear her giggle
"Hi Addison" I roll my eyes and pick up Romeo and Juliet
"I have read that book...it really is a true love story" Addison flips her hair
"I'm gonna get it because I wanted to get it anyway" I say trying to let her know I wasn't getting it because she has read it
She squeals and nods trying to hide her excitement. She grabs it and runs to the front counter and punches in some numbers.
"I'll pay for it" she giggles and pulls a 10 dollar note and a 2 dollar coin out of her pocket.
"No it's fine Addison" I sigh and pull out my money
"Already Done" she closes the till and places the book in my hands
"See you soon" she kisses my cheek and walks away
I open the tip jar and put in the correct amount and close it. I walk out the door and can feel her eyes watching me. I walk up and call a Uber and I see the girl running back towards the café with bags in her arms. I frown and cancel my Uber and wait for her to get settled in her seat then I walk in. I watch as she bangs her head against the table a few times.
"Are you okay?" I whisper
Her eyes connect with mine and she seems frozen. Time goes faster as I stare into her eyes and I get lost in them.
"Hello?" I try to break the silence
She nods her head quickly and looks away
I sit down across from her, the waitress comes over and I find out the girls name is Skylar. I go to shake her hand an I notice her cheek is red.
"Woah your cheek is a dark red" I lift my hand higher and touch her cheek softly
She tenses up but seems to melt into my touch as if she is being touched by a guy for the first time.
"Daniel let's go" Corbyn stands at the counter holding two coffees
"Bye Skylar" I stand up and walk to Corbyn and take my coffee before walking out.
We go to the beach and walk to the pier and wait for the other boys to arrive. I watch as Skylar walks down the pier ignoring everyone's simple hello or wave and I smile
"Stalking me?" I chuckle
She turns and her eyes grow wide and she quickly shakes her head and starts to shake lightly as if she didn't want to be here.
"Skylar these are my friends Zach, Corbyn, Jonah and Jack" I smile pointing each of them out
She waves and looks back out at the water.
"So you are the girl our boy has been talking about since 8:30" Jonah smirks
"Dude!" I shove him lightly
"Oops" Jonah smiles and she blushes at Me
"Do you ever talk?" I move closer to her
She shakes her head slowly and I notice a book with a pen in her hand.

She writes as well.

"Why not?" I frown
She shrugs and turns back to the water and I hear some of the boys snicker.
"Something got your tongue precious?" Jack laughs
"Dude" I growl and push him
"Anxiety" She whispers and shudder goes through her body as the boys go quiet
"Oh" Jack looks down
"Well I can help you get through that and out of your shell" I  smiles revealing my tooth gap.
Her eyes stare at me and then she nods slowly. I see a light smile on her lips and she looks back out to the water.
God that smile is gonna be the death of me.
