EMILY'S POV

Laying in Alex's arms, I felt like I belonged, I'd never ever felt this wanting for someone in my life. I wanted to be his and I wanted him to be mine, for as long as he'd let me. I'm not sure if this is love, I'm not even sure what love is, but what I do know is that as soon as he leaves I'll miss him. 

Alex shiffted around which indicated him waking up. He looked down at me with a large smile on his face "Good morning beautiful" he whispered. 

"Good morning, Al" I answered. He sqeezed me tighter in a strong hug causing me to giggle "Can't breathe." We both laughed together at this and he realeased me a little.

"What time is it?" he asked me. I turned my head to face the clock, but only to find out I was extreamly late "Shit!" I exclaimed and jumped up. Picking up my phone to ring a taxi, Al sat up on the bed "What's up?" he asked raising his eyebrow. 

"I'm late for work, I must go" I said rushing around to get ready "You can stay here as long as you'd like, I really must dash though". 

Finishing getting dresses, I ended up with my black leather jacket, a long sleaved plum top to go with my matching trainers and, as almost always, my black jeans. I gave Alex a kiss on the cheek as I was about to run off for work "You look lovely, have a good day at work" Al said. 

"See you later." I ran out front to greet my taxi, which I quickly hopped inside. "To anywhere around the winter gardens please." The driver nodded in response and set off for the journey. 'See you later?' I thought? Is that all I can say? The man gave me a compliment and that was how I answered, the fuck? I'm not used to having good responses to compliments. If I normally get one, it's in a pub or a club and from sleezy men. Like that time, after my first  Arctic Monkey's show, the man kept wanting to buy me a drink and I shewed him away. That's what I'd normally do. "Miss?... Oi... MISS?" the driver interrupted my thoughts "We're here".

"How much do I owe you?" I asked.

"Erm, call it fifteen quid." I passed the man the money, confused as it's never been 15 before, I didn't question it though as I was in too much of a rush. "Thank you, have a nice day." Getting out of the car, I quickly ran through the Winter Gardens and too the little shop in which I worked. 

Legging it through the door, my manager stood there shaking her head at me " Three hours Emily?!" she shouted.

"I know, I am so sorry, my alarm didn't go off and my taxi was late" I lied. 

"By three hours? I am fed up of excuses, if you're late one more time then you're sacked." I nodded and appologised a last time whilst I walked into the little back. I popped on my lanyard on and walked back out onto the shop floor, a small smile left my face as I heard what song was on 'Hard to Explain' by The Strokes. This song is one I really loved, it's not like the majority of rubished that gets played on those basic radio stations. "Exuse me, do I know you?" I turned around faced with a blonde man who did actually seem sort of familiar. "Oh I'm not sure." I shrugged. "Yeah, I've met you once before." he smiled. 

"Well would you like to inform me of where?" I suggested. 

"Er, that night Arctic Monkeys played that reyt good song. I think it was called summet like 'Fake Tales of' something?" 

"Yeah I was there, I love that song."

"I thought is was good too, front man seems like a bit of a bellend."

My eyes widened quickly as my brain re-discoved who he was. "You're the creepy bastard that would'nt leave me alone!"

"Well I wouldn't call myself creepy"

"You wouldn't" I scoffed.

"I did just really want to buy you a drink. If that front man didn't get in the way, you'd have seen how nice I am." he said. 

"That 'front man' happens to be my boyfriend."

His mouth opened slightly in shock causing me to laugh a little bit. "You needing any customer service or are you just being a stalker?" I chuckled. 

"How on earth could I have stalked you when I didn't know you worked here?" he laughed. I shrugged, picked up a cloth and got back to work. "I'm after some shoes." I rolled my eyes. The man picked up a trainer and asked for it in his size, which I went into the stock room to go and fetch. Sorting the shoes out her thanked me with a smile and handed me the money. "Thank you" I smiled as he left the shop. 

"Finally, you made a sale for the first time in who knows how long." My manager said with her arms crossed causing me to turn away and roll my eyes.
