I turned around to see that he had taken off his hood. I could see his brown curly hair, it was a bit messy but it was cute, I couldn't help but just smile at how good looking he was.

???: You dropped your phone.

You: Oh thanks.

I smiled sweetly as I grabbed my phone from him

???: My name is Tom, by the way.

You: Well it's nice to meet you Tom, I'm Louise.

Tom: Louise huh, I like that name,

He likes my name? But it's so boring.

Tom: Well I'll see you around

Tom smiled sweetly. I giggled a little while thanking him. Wow he was cute. I suddenly snapped back to reality reminding myself that I had a boyfriend and he wouldn't like it at all. Because we loved each other. Right?

TOMS POV:

I was going for my nightly jog around the park when I bumped into this girl. She was really pretty.

Tom: Oh I'm sorry love I didn't mean to-

Girl: Oh no, don't worry I wasn't even looking at where I was going.

I looked up and my eyes met hers, they were light green and the stars reflected light off of them. Without a doubt I would have gotten lost in them and if I was allowed to stare for hours, I believe the world would freeze. She cleared her throat and looked away, breaking our eye contact. As she spoke she had a foreign accent but I couldn't quite figure out where it was from.

Girl: Um well I better get going.

Tom: Oh...um...yea me too.

There was an awkward silence for a few seconds until she spoke again.

Girl: Okay well bye.

I cant believe she didn't recognise who I saw, but then again it was 9 at night and she mustve been a bit tired. I looked down noticed that my sunglasses had fallen off, so I bent down to get them and noticed that she dropped her phone, so I picked that up too. She started to walk away but I called out to her.

Tom: WAIT!!

I hoped she had heard me because I had her phone still in my hand. She turned around. YES! I thought to myself as I walked up to her.
Tom: Y-You dropped your phone.
I hope she didn't notice my stuttering...
Girl: Oh thanks.
Wow her smile is so cute.
Tom: My name is Tom, by the way.
Louise: Well it's nice to meet you Tom, I'm Louise.
Tom: Louise huh, I like that name, well I'll see you around.
I really hoped I would see her again.
Louise: Yeah cya.
I smiled sweetly. She giggled a little, wow that laugh. Everything about her is amazing, I couldn't find a single flaw throughout that short time we spoke.

Louise's POV:
I walked the rest of the way home because the park was just down the street from where I lived, when I got home I was surprised to see that Jake was home and wasn't at the bar or the club with some other girl... again.
Jake: What took you so long?
Louise: Uhh... I-I wanted to walk instead of jog.
Jake: Well you are a very slow walker.
Louise: Mhm.
I nodded and went upstairs to have a shower then make some dinner, I was almost reached the top of the stairs, but Jake called out to me.
Jake: What are you doing now?
I rolled my eyes as I replied.
Louise: I'm just having a shower then I was going to-
Jake: NO YOU ARE MAKING DINNER FIRST AND DO NOT GIVE ME THAT ATTITUDE AGAIN OR I SWEAR I WILL-
4 / 11
I cut him off by crying. I've gotten pretty good at faking it now since I've had to do it for a while but he never knew it wasn't real. I'm thinking of auditioning for a role in a movie, since I'm getting pretty good at acting, I just hope I'm good on screen.
Jake: Ohh no no no no don't cry, I-I'm sorry princess I didn't mean to, look you go and have your shower first and then you can make dinner alright?
I nodded and sniffled, I walked upstairs to take a shower, as soon as I was out of his sight I stopped crying and I chuckled a bit at how clueless he was. He still scares me though when he tries to hit me but most of the time I manage to dodge him, I'm glad my parents forced me to take those self-defence classes when I was younger.
I had a shower making sure to take my time then went back downstairs to cook some dinner.
Louise: What do you want to eat tonight?
Jake: Whatever tasted god babe.
Louise: Alright.
I decided to make some mac n' cheese, since I didn't really want to cook. We ate in silence watching the TV. After we finished eating I washed the dishes and told Jake that I was going to sleep.
Louise: Goodnight babe I'm going to sleep.
Jake: Yeah okay whatever.
He waved me off obviously not really paying attention to what I was saying. I went to my room and let my hair out, I walked out to the little balcony I have outside my room and climbed onto the roof. I sat there for a while. I love the feeling of freedom as I close my eyes and trust that the wind will blow me away and take all of my problems with it until it got too cold, I went back inside to sleep it took me a while to get to sleep. I couldn't get to sleep as fast as I normally do. All I could do was think about that Tom guy I met on my jog, the way his eyes twinkled in the moonlight, or how his smile could light up the town after dark, or how he had that curly brown hair and that one curl that fell onto his face, not only did he look amazing he was actually sweet in the short amount of time that I talked to him. My thoughts slowly vanished as I fell into a deep relaxing sleep.
