The population of New York is around eight million. Eight million people so that means seven million nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine other people could've bumped into me. A sweaty jogger, a rude woman dressed in overpriced clothes that would've blamed me even though it was her fault, a little kid being pulled along by their mother. But it was you y/n you bumped into me.
You weren't either of the people that could've entered my life as quick as they left by just saying "sorry" and continue walking to wherever they're going to no you were different that's why I knew you couldn't just walk into my life and leave how dare you do that to me.
I could practically feel the innocence vibrating off of you, I felt lucky to be in your presence like you were the Queen of the kingdom that only I lived in, you weren't like anyone I ever met even though you only spent around two minutes acknowledging my existence I still felt lucky blessed even to be around you.
The moment I met you y/n I just knew I had to become more important to you I just craved your attention, I only wanted you to think about me while you were at work, I wanted to be the last person that came to your mind before you would drift off to sleep, I wanted to be the person you're wondering what they're doing right at the moment you are thinking of them, I wanted to be yours y/n.
I am willing to let you have me.
I am willing to give myself to you.
I just need you to accept me.
I started that day off like many other days, I woke up thanked that universe for my day while I was brushing my teeth and honestly I think that's the reason why you came into my life you're my little gift from the universe, I went down had my morning breakfast and got ready for my day.
I'm starting to really believe that everything happens for a reason because if my car never had a flat tire I wouldn't have got two subways across town and then walk twenty minutes from the subway station to my office and that is when I met you I would've just drove, I wouldn't of got to experience what it is like to meet you but maybe I would've met you a different way but that's not the case.
It was kind of my fault just as much as yours if I wasn't looking at my phone I would've dodged you not taking in the beauty that you are thank you technologically.
I'm not gonna lie it was some hit and if you weren't the cause of it whoever it would've been instead wouldn't of gotten such of a kind reply that you got.
"Oh my god I am so sorry" you said with such sincerity I was ready y/n I was ready to start indulging you in the fowl language that I was fluent in but when I looked up at you all that anger left my mind and happiness flooded in as if a dam just collapsed I don't really believe in love at first sight but I most certainly believe in admiration at first sight.
"No no it's okay here let me help you" I bent down picking up one of the books you dropped but didn't notice I looked at the label before handing you the book "oh god thank you I didn't even realize I dropped that" you smiled so innocently "what chapter are you on" I only asked you that because I wanted to be with you longer even though I knew I was going to be late to my job "oh I'm on chapter six" "ah the secret to relationships" I said making you shocked at my knowledge of the book you're reading "you've read the secret" you asked me to which I nodded to "it's one of my favorite books" "yeah I'm so far loving it" you said just before our moment we were having was dying a slow and painful death, maybe if this was a fan fiction on Wattpad I would've said some very cheesy pick up line that does not work on anyone but since it's a story you would've fallen for it and then it probably would've went to your point of view and you would've said something along the lines of "I think I'm falling in love with her but we just met but I can't help what I feel" and of course I would've gotten your phone number but it's not and I knew it was too soon of us to even exchange numbers y/n we need a little more time before we can take that step.
"Well my name is Ariana and yours" I asked you putting my hand out to you even though you had five books in your hands I still don't know why I didn't ask you why you had so many books "y/n y/l/n" you then somehow managed to free your hand to shake mine that alone made me feel even more happy you went through all that trouble just to shake my hand, you were probably just being polite but I like to look at everything in a different way, when we touched I didn't feel sparks or any electrical shock no you're too soft for that no I felt not a warm and fuzzy feeling I felt a very warm like when you put your hand close to a fire not as close to when it starts to burn you just close enough to feel the heat rubbing off your hand or like the feeling you get when a little pup comes running over to you to jump up on you and show you so much love, I think repeated your full name in my head about fifty times before you walked away so I wouldn't forget it your name suits you so much "Well it was nice bumping into you y/n" then what you done next I will forever hold in my heart, you laughed along with such a beautiful smile has anyone ever told you that you have a wonderful smile I hope not cause I want to be the first, your smile could probably cure depression, it could make a lonely soul feel a little less lonely.
"Well it was nice meeting you Ariana and thanks for getting my book I'll see you around" you gave me yet another one of your famous smiles 'see you around' I said more to myself than you because you were already gone by then.
I wonder if I immediately left your mind as you walked away from me or if I stayed there until someone else came up to you to talk to you, I wonder if you still know my name, I wonder if you even remember what I look like.
You stayed in my mind even when I was making an excuse up to my boss for why I was late your smile stayed in my head that whole day, it still hasn't even faded not even the slightest y/n.
I can feel big things coming for us
It's like I can almost feel it on the tip of my fingers
Just like you.
