All I wanted was for this day to be over with. It started with me waking up late, spilling my coffee on myself on the way to the train, and the most boring day on the planet. 

You can try as hard as you can to make a desk job fun, but today was not one of those days.

I was lucky though. I got a decent, well paying job right out of college. There are people who are in worse situations. I sighed as I saw that my train home was running late. I pulled out my phone and headphones, put music on and scrolled through my mind numbing social media for what seemed like forever until I heard the familiar screeching of the trains brakes. 

I stepped on, and the heat was a welcoming sensation, unlike the cold London air outside. I sat down in the middle as usual, deciding that I was going to play solitaire. As I was doing so, I felt eyes on me. Then I saw the man in front of me lift up his phone, taking pictures of me. Of course, of all days, this has to happen today.

"Cut it out, I said to the stranger, "or this isn't going to end well."

"Oh yeah? What are you going to do about it?" He said, standing up and taking a swift step towards me, now towering over my small body.

Hm. I didn't think that far ahead. 

"She said to leave her alone. Get off at the next stop or I'll make sure you don't get off at all." 

I turned to see the blonde boy who has spoken up for me. The man huffed, and got off at the next stop, like the boy had asked. 

"Thank you." I said. Oh my, was he handsome. 

"No problem love" He said, sticking out his hand. "My name's Harry."

"Nice to meet you. I'm Daisy."

I studied his features quickly as we shook hands. He looked to be maybe six feet tall. He had blonde hair that was going in all directions, and blue eyes that creased in the edges as he smiled at me. The train conductor saying the name of my stop is what broke me out of my trance. 

"It was nice meeting you Harry, thank you again. Have a good night." I said stepping off the train and back into the now cooler air. The doors closed before I heard his response. 

I walked quickly to my flat, and when I arrived my cat greeted me at the door. 

"Hi Baby." I said bending down to pet her. I kicked off my shoes and hung my jacket up, wanting to go in for a hot shower before I went to sleep. 

I got in and let the borderline scorching water wash off everything that happened that day. My interaction with Harry kept replaying in my head. I've never seen him before. I usually recognize most people, as I ride with them everyday. Was he new? A tourist? Or just someone taking a new route? All the thoughts distracted me as I went on autopilot through my shower. 

I got out and dried off, deciding on wearing just an oversized t-shirt. I lived alone, so it didn't really matter what I wore. I went to the kitchen, Baby hot at my heels. I gave her some food before getting some of my own. I decided on throwing together a salad. 

I walked over to the couch with my bowl and turned on the TV, settling in to catch up on some Stranger Things. I tossed a blanket over my legs and placed my empty bowl on the coffee table. 

Hours later, I woke up in a cold sweat and a weird position, just what my neck needs. Barely awake, I looked over at the clock. 1:37am. "Great" I said aloud to myself. I jumped as I heard Baby meow in response, mad at me for walking her up. I laughed and headed on my room, snuggling up under my covers and quickly falling asleep again in my bed.

Harry's POV

I got onto the train after a long day of filming with the rest of the Sidemen. We were in a part of London where we didn't usually go, and I hopped on the train, hoping it was the one that was going to take me back to my flat. I sat down and scrolled through my twitter, reading and liking tweets until I heard a girl angrily say to a guy to cut it out.

I looked up and saw the man who she was talking to take a step towards her, basically standing on top of her. I got up and shut him down. The girl looked shaken up. When she said thank you I introduced myself.

"No problem love. My name's Harry."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Daisy." she put her small hand into my outstretched one and shook it.

Her nails were painted a dark shade of purple. I looked up at her and took in her face. She had shoulder length brown hair that was as straight as it could get. Her eyebrows were perfectly shaped. I saw the edge of a tattoo on her wrist as she pulled her hand away. 

"It was nice meeting you Harry, thank you again. Have a good night." She walked off the train and the door closed, leaving me with my own thoughts. Daisy. What a unique name. She was intriguing. I wonder if I'll ever see her again. 

I laughed my myself. Not in this city. There's too many people to ever see someone twice.

 The train stopped again, and I noticed the familiar station as the one near my flat. I got out and walked the five minutes there, opting for the elevator instead of the stairs when I got inside.

I put some leftovers on a plate and put it in the microwave, then bringing it to my desk. I had to edit a video that was going out tomorrow. As I was editing, my mind wandered back to Daisy.

I hope I will see her again. Maybe luck will be on my side for once in my life.

I've read a couple of W2S fanfics, but wanted to write my own as well. My school is all online so I know I'll have the free time to.
