A New Beginning

The Pool

Their flat was about a thirty minute drive, so I turned the radio on to try and drown out my thoughts. I flipped stations till I found a song I liked. It was soft and sweet. Not like what I was used to hearing on the radio these days. I wasn’t sure who it was that sang it, but it was beautiful, and the lyrics were amazing!

Your hand fits in mine like it's made just for me

but bear this mind it was meant to be

and i'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks

and it all makes sense to me

i know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile,

you've never loved your stomach or your thighs

the dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine

But i'll love them endlessly

I won't let this little things slip out of my mouth

But if i do, it's you, oh it's you, they add up to

i'm in love with you and all these little things

You can't go to bed without a cup of tea

maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep

and all those conversations are the secrets that i keep

though it makes no sense to me

i know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape

you never want to know how much you weigh

you still have to squeeze into your jeans

but you're perfect to me

i won't let this little things slips out of my mouth

But if it's true, it's you, it's you, they add up to

I'm in love with you and all these little things

you never love yourself half as much as i love you

you'll never treat yourself right darling but i want you to

if i let you know, i'm here for you

maybe you'll love yourself like i love you oh

i've just let these little things slips out of my mouth

because it's you, oh it's you, it's you they add up to

and i'm in love with you (all these little things)

I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth

but if it's true, it's you, it's you they add up to

I'm in love with you, and all your little things.

Tears threatened to spill out of my eyes as I listened to the song. “Why can’t I find someone that would be like that with me?” I thought to myself. I didn’t think I was the prettiest in the world or anything, but I knew I deserved better than Ryan. A song played that I didn’t like, so I flipped the station. I was happy to hear that the other song that I had liked was on the new station. The DJ announced the song as “Little Things” from a band called One Direction. I had never heard of them, but they seemed to be pretty good. I glanced at myself in the rear view mirror. My eye was already swelling. I knew it would be bruising before long. A few minutes later, and I was pulling up outside Iris and Niall’s house. I knocked on the front door, suitcase in tow. The door was opened a few seconds later by someone I didn’t know. He was about 5’10” or so. He had black hair and these eyes that were just magical. “No.” I said to myself, “I literally just left Ryan. I don’t need to be liking someone else so soon.” I pushed the thoughts of this new guy to the back of my head.
