Hollie woke up at 8am, heading straight to the shower to start her day. She decided to bring her echo dot into the bathroom to play music whilst she was in the shower, singing along to all the songs that played. She made sure she shaved her legs considering she would be trying on multiple dresses today. After she had done everything, she stepped out of the bathroom and walked back to her bedroom to choose what she wanted to wear. Thankfully it was forecasted to be quite a nice hot and sunny day considering it was only May. Hollie took this as an advantage to wear a pair of high waisted denim shorts and a crop top. She blow dried her hair and then went downstairs. Her mum wasn't sitting at the table so she must have already left for work for today.

Hollie made herself some toast and then went to get ready for the day. She put on a light bit of makeup, not wanting to go too crazy if she is just taking her clothes off every two seconds to try different dresses. Hollie grabbed her tanned crossbody bag and grabbed her lace up trainers, and walked out the door after checking to see if she had her vlogging camera which is the Canon G7 Mark iii, her external mic, a couple of SD cards and a few batteries.

Once she was down the street a little ways, she started vlogging her journey for today, making her way to her first stop on the list.

It got to about half 11 and Hollie had tried on countless amount of dresses at this point from various shops and she just wasn't finding the perfect dress for her event. As she walked out of the most recent shop she had walked in, she got a text from Sarah saying she is almost done and gave her an address for a cafe and to meet her there in an hour. Hollie had some time to kill because she wanted to take a break and just wonder the streets of London. As she was walking around, she decided to update her vlog.

"Okay, so I have just come out of another shop. Still nothing. Why is this proving to be so hard?" she asked the camera, letting out a groan of frustration. "But anyway, I am just wondering around for a little until I have to go and meet Sarah for lunch. I have no clue wh- oh shit," was the last thing she said before she found herself on the ground. She felt a stinging sensation in her leg and looked to see a few small scraps.

She looked up at the person who she had collided with, who seemed to be just staring at her underneath blacked out sunglasses and a jumper that had the hood pulled over his head.

'How can he not be sweating right now'was the first thing Hollie thought of.

"Watch where you're going, jerk," Hollie said as she picked herself up off ground and then realisation hit that she was holding her camera. She looked on the ground and saw it lying on the ground. Hollie quickly picked it up and looked it over to see it was still recording and didn't look scratched or anything. Hollie breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is it alright?" the guy asked, his voice low and oddly familiar to Hollie.

"Yeah, no thanks to you," Hollie said as she stopped the recording and turned her camera off. "Is there a reason you knocked me over?" Hollie sassily asked raising her hand to her hip.

"I was just walking normally. You must be very light on your feet," the mystery man taunts, raising his lips into a smirk. "But I am sorry for knocking you over, even though I don't know if it was me or you not paying attention," he smirked, nodding towards the camera.

"It was definitely you. I am used to dodging people in the streets whilst doing this. Definitely you," Hollie answered, causing the guy to raise his hands in defence.

"Alright. Fine. I'll take the blame," he said with a laugh. "What's your name anyway?" he asked and he saw Hollie raise an eyebrow as if to say 'why should I tell you?' "Oh wait. You're Hollie Wilson right?" there must have been something that clicked in his head.
