Bump Into You// Harry Styles

chapter 2

Ella's pov

I woke up to my alarm blaring in my ears. I hate early mornings but I also love them because my mom gets massive hangovers from the none stop drinking at nights so she can't get up early.

I slid out of bed going to the bathroom to take a bath. After my bath, I brushed my teeth then got aspirin from the Med cabinet.I then went to the kitchen and got a cup of water then went to the living room and placed them on them on the coffee table. Yup. She slept on the sofa. She couldn't even make it to her room by the time she is finished drinking.

I put on my shoes and took my keys and water and stuff before going out to start running. I jogged down the street then through a path me and my dad found when we used to run together.. I thought about stuff but then a started running faster to get my mind off stuff .

I was so into it that I didn't even look where I was going. I bumped into someone. Again. Why do I always do this?

I realised that the person's phone fell although there Wasn't a scratch, I still felt bad.

I was ready to start flooding whoever it was with apologies but when I looked up, I was met with familiar forest green eyes.

"Oh it's you. " was all I had to say. Ok. He just stood there staring at me with no emotion. weird. I was almost sure that he would have been angry at me. But then he probably thought that I would just laugh. Yup

I took time to look at him. What is he doing here? As far as I know, only my dad and I knew about this path and the side of street I came in from has nobody on it. Maybe he came in from the other side. But where? Me and my dad made it to an intersection and we decided to leave it and not go because we didn't know what was at the end of them. Maybe they lead to other streets. Why am I thinking so much of this?

"Can you move?" His voice cut me out of my chain of thoughts. He seemed angry yet calm. Like he was trying to control himself. Huh? Why would he want to control himself? Curiosity killed the cat El. My subconscious reminded me. Right.

"Did you not hear what I said?" He asked me while I was still keeping my mind busy.

"Sorry I............ Why are you so mean? What did poor me ever do to you? Well...... Other than the couple of times I bumped into you but that doesn't give you the right to be so mean to me..... I don't even know you.... You..... "

"Just shut your fucking mouth and move before I shut it for you. I'm not in the mood for your bullshit right now girl!" He barked at me and I immediately stepped out of his way. He didn't even spare me another glance before storming off in the direction I came from.

Whatever. I came out here to clear my head and instead I filled it with more drama. Drama seems to follow me everywhere I go. Ugh! I feel like I'm carrying a burden that is not even mine.

I shook my head and started back home. I walked this time because that monster of a boy killed my running vibe.

The wind picked up and I looked up to see it will soon start to rain. I love the rain. Me and dad used to play in it and mom used to scold us for our reckless behaviour and talk about getting sick. We would always just laugh at her and tell her that we wouldn't and we always end up with high fevers at the end of the day.

I chuckled at the memory. I soon realised that it started raining because of my dripping wet hair and my soaked clothes.

I just walked around in the rain for a bit longer before going to that same park and sitting down at the bench. I relaxed a bit. It wasn't that cold type of rain. It was warm and welcoming. I love it.
