I walked in the house and shut the door, locking it behind me. I heard coughing coming from the one room. I walked towards it and inside I saw a boy with brown hair and the perfect frame. Holly shit. He was cute. Then I noticed why she needed me to help him. He had a broken foot.

I walked in the room and towards him. He was laying on their red leather couch. The TV was on and a movie called The Getaway, was on. He must have heard me because he looked up at me and smiled a little. I smiled back. Perfection.

I sat down on the end of the couch near where his feet ended. "I'm Ansel." He said. "Katy." I said. Ansel Elgort, wow.

Ansel's P.O.V.

I looked at the gorgeous blonde in front of me. She was perfect. And her smile topped it off. I felt pai shoot through my leg but I ignored it watching her. "What happened?" She asked. "I fell down the steps." I said. "Getting the cast off in two days though."

I watched as she ran her fingers through her hair. I was feeling a lot better just with her being here.

I went to try to stand up to get some water but she stopped me, "Hey you need to get some rest. What do you need?" She asked. I groaned, this was an awful first impression. I look like shit and here she is taking care of me. Why can't this be the other way around? Not that I want her to be in pain but at the moment I wish I could make a good impression and take care of her.

"Nothing." I said. She raised her eyebrows at me, with a questioning look. "Water." I said and she smiled then got up to get it.

She came back in a few seconds later with a bottle of water in her hands. She handed it to me. I smiled at her and groaned as I tried to sit up. I watched as she quickly grabbed a pillow off the couch and stuck it behind my back. "Thanks." I said. She smiled. "No problem." She said.

We watch a movie called The Three Musketeers and it was ok. There were four in the end but yea. She thought it wasn't bad either. She told me how she loved action movies for some reason. "It's ridiculous I know." She laughed.

"No it isn't." I said smiling at her. "I like romance movies. Shhh." She laughed and so did I but I ended up coughing. "Ill get your medicine." She said getting up to get it. She came back in a minute later with a container of pills. She pulled one out and stuck it in my hand. I swallowed it. I hate taking pills. Hate.

I asked her to put one of my favorite movies in and she did. I smiled at her as I gave her some of the blanket to cover up with. The lights were off. "I heard her scream ounce, since it was a horror movie, which made me laugh. "Its not funny!" She giggled.

My eyes got foggy as the movie was getting to the half point. I was tired. I looked over to see her sleeping. She was so cute. I smiled as I closed my eyes and started to drift off into a sleep.

Not to long later probably half an hour I heard the door and sat up slowly, it hurt to do so. Katy opened her eyes and yawned as she sat up and rubbed her head. My eyes hurt as my mom flicked on the light. "Ow." I heard Katy's sleepy voice say. I looked over to see my mom and this guy. "Thank you Katy. Money is on the kitchen counter." My mom, Rose, said then went upstairs with the guy. "Money?" She asked. She didn't know she was getting paid?

She rubbed her eyes one more time then got up and stretched. "I guess bye then, Ansel." She said handing me a folded piece of paper. "If you ever need anything let me know." She smiled.

I smiled back of course.

She left and I was kind of disappointed we didn't have more time to talk. Even though my throat hurt. I liked her, a lot. And I was hoping she thought the same about me. I yawned and grabbed the remote to turn off the lights, kind of weird I know. They went off and then I got comfortable and fell asleep again, but then questions ran through my mind. Should I call Katy tomorrow? Who was that guy my mom was with? And- I fell asleep and everything was pitch black.

No more questions. I'll have the answers to them tomorrow.

--- the next day ---

Katy's POV

I yawned as I sat up in my bed. My phone buzzed and I puck it up to see Ansel's name appear across the screen. I opened up the message. 'Thanks for helping me last night.' I smiled and replied, 'No problem!' I got up and got ready for the day.

OOTD:

black vans, white skinny jeans, and a purple and white polka dotted shirt that was meant to be tucked into my pants

I brushed my blonde hair and then curled it. I love curling my hair. That is a true fact about me.

My phone rang and my best friend, Jess, was calling. "Hey Jessie!" I said and was glad she called. "Hey babe." She said. We called each other cute nicknames sometimes (ex. babe, sweetheart, sexay, ect...)

I laughed. "I'm on my way over." She said and I smiled. We have been friends ever since we were babies. So she was aloud to invite herself over whenever she wanted. "Sounds good." "Yayyyy. Be there in a bit. Love yaa!" She said. "Love you too." Then we both hung up. She was the only friend I talked to like that. A few minutes later I came out of my bathroom and jumped when I saw her sitting laying on my bed swinging her legs in the air.

I laughed. "You're ridiculous!" I said jumping onto the bed next to her. She smiled. "How did babysitting the hottie go?" She asked and then put on her 'I know you like him' face. "Fine!" I said then hit her with the pillow.

"Hey!" She yelled as she jumped up.

She laughed as she layed on the ground. I got up and walked over to one of my bedroom windows. I saw a car pull up out front, Ms. Elgort. Jess went out back and left, we said our goodbyes. I opened the door to see Ansel and his mom standing there. His mom barges in "Where is your cousin?" She asks. I pointed to the cieling, telling her that he was upstairs.

"So." Ansel said. "Come in." I said opening the door wider for him. I heard a bang on the ceiling and I knew it was Ms. Elgort and my cousins friend. I gagged a little just thinking about it. Ansel laughed, "Is that-" I nodded. "That is disgusting." He said. I laughed. "Yea it is."

We walked into the living room and sat on the couch together.We talked for about ten minutes until I heard my front door open. I turned to see Jess standing there with a big smile on her face. She raised her eyebrows at me before walking into the kitchen. "Sorry, I didn't mean to intrude, I think I left my phone here though, I knew she was smirking while she wasn't facing us.

Ansel looked at me with a confused look. I laughed. "She thinks you're hot." I said. "Oh now does she?" He asked as a smirk came on his face, which made me laugh even harder.

"Yes I do." She said turning around as she started laughing herself. "Now I have to go my boyfriend is waiting in the car. Bye sexay!" She called, walking out the door. "Bye!" I yelled back.

Ansel looked at me. "So your friend thinks I'm hot..?" He said. I stood up to light the candle on the fireplace in the middle of the living room. "How does she know about me?" He asked and my face dropped. Shit. I turned around to face him and he had a big smile on his face. "Because I told her I babysitted a big baby boy who needed help when mommy was gone." I said teasing him.

"Hahaha." He said, his voice holding the sarcasm tone to it. Then we both burst out laughing.

Damn it Ansel Elgort. Why can't you be ugly instead of cute as fuck?
