The Unexpected

Chapter 5

(EMMA'S POV)

"Where's your coffee?" my mum asked.
It took me a while reply as I was still a little bit confused about what just happened.
"Oh, I...I..spilled it."
"What?" said my sister.
"I was walking back when I accidentally bumped into this guy and spilled my coffee all over his shirt."
"You're so dumb, haha!" This wasn't in a mean way. It was just how we communicate with each other.
I just shared coffee with my mom since she got a large size.
We walked back to our hotel room and continued to get ready.

My sister and I were waiting in the lobby while my mum was fixing some admin stuff over on the front desk. We were just giggling and talking when something caught my eye. I did a double take just to make sure it was him. It was that guy from the coffee shop. The guy that I spilled coffee on. Gosh he's so pretty.

I didn't realise I was staring at him for long until my sister went ,"EMMA! Who are you staring at?" She followed the direction I was looking at and said "OH GOD, EMMA." and rolled her eyes.

I guess he kinda noticed I was staring at him and he gave me a little side smile. Not gonna lie, I died a little bit inside. He looked shocked to see me, but also relieved at the same time? I don't know.

We both were smiling at each other like idiots until my mum came and said that we're going. We spent the whole day just sightseeing around Paris. Got lost a couple of times, but we managed.

It was only the first day but we were exhausted. As we go in into our hotel lobby, I glanced and I saw that coffee shop guy sitting on one of the couches. When he saw me he jumped up and went over to me. He looked like he was waiting for me which was weird.

"Hey, hi" he said.
My mum gave me a confused look while my sister gave me that "OOOOO GIRL" look (lol).
"Yo..you guys can go up to the room. I..uhh I'll talk to him first." I watched as my mum and sister walked away and my sister still giving me that look.

I looked back at the coffee shop dude and said "look, if this is about this morning, I really am sorry! If there's something I can do to mm.."
"No, this isn't about this morning. Forget about it." He cuts me off.
"Th..then what is it?" looking confused.
He chuckled and said, "hmm, well, let me introduce myself first, I'm Daniel."
"I'm Emma" and gave a smile
"That's such a beautiful name."
I blushed. In my head I'm like 'is this guy flirting with me?'  but I didn't think much of it.
He could tell, I didn't know how to answer that so he cut the silence off by saying "soo, do you...want to hang out some time? We still have a few days left here."
"Sure." I say, a little hesitant.
"Cool, can I uhh..is there any way I can contact you?"
"I can give you my number, but I don't think it'll work here."
"Sure, it can. Do you have iMessage?"
I nodded and I gave him my phone so he could put his number in it and I did the same with his. It was a little awkward when we gave our phones back to each other haha.

We walked over to the lift together and I was on the 10th floor and he was on the 14th so I came out first. Before I even walked out of the lift, he said, "nice to meet you, Emma." giving me the most beautiful and genuine smile. "Nice to meet you too" I say.
