Chapter 2

Scarlett's P.O.V

I was walking up back to Lids, the hat store Luke told me he was at. I had just walked back from the theatres, finding out the next showing for Women in Black was in the next hour. Minding my own business, trying to keep away from strangers, I walked along the flashy signs of the stores. Not paying clear attention, I bumped into a confused stranger. Dropping my purse, I bent down to gather my belongings.

''I am so sorry'' Said the voice above me. I looked up to see a pair of golden brown eyes staring at me. I stood up, recognizing it was the boy at the Café, I said my apology, and carried on my search to the infamous 'Lids' I was looking for.

''Wait!'' The boy, which name I had yet to find out, yelled from behind. I turned on my heel, now, facing him, and raised an eyebrow, indicating my confused reaction. Smiling, he walked towards me, hands stuffed in pockets, and cleared his throat.

''I saw you at the Café" He told me, stating the obvious. I crossed my arms over my chest, gesturing for him to continue. He looked shocked at my lack of interest, though, did continue.

''Im Zayn" He said, putting his hand forward.

"Scarlett" I told him, "but you can call me Scar" I smiled.

"Scarlett" He repeated, "I like that name, suits you" He grinned.

"Oh really?" I tested. Zayn nodded confidently, his eyes boring into mine. I quickly looked away, feeling a blush creep onto my cheeks.

Shifting from foot to foot, I looked up to his inviting eyes. "I uh-" I hesitated, "I should probably go now, my friends are waiting for me"

"Well, you wouldn't mind giving me you number?" He asked, hesitantly.

I smiled widely at him before shaking my head. "No" I said, looking up to see his smile fading. "Not at all" I smiled, before handing him my phone.  

"Great" he said, "Well, I hope to see you soon Scarlett" He grinned, stuffing his hands in his pockets.

"You know what Zayn?" I started. He raised his eyebrows in question. "I hope to see you soon, too" I winked, before turning around.

I smiled at myself widely, feeling a new wave of happiness fill in me.

Lukes POV

I was outide Lids, waiting patiently for Scarlett's surpisingly late arrival, when I saw her walking towards me with a smile on her face.

''Wow, that took you long'' I complained.

"Haha" she laughed sarcastically, I was on my way, just happened to bump into a very cute guy on the way, I guess I got carried away in our conversation''. She told me he asked for her number, which he simply gave. Jealousy ran through my body, knowing that clearly I had no chance with her whats so ever. Nodding, to hide the pain in my eyes, I told her we should get the rest so we dont get late for the movie.

Scarlett's POV

The movie had been a disaster, with my constantly worrying with what would happen next, and the audience constantly reminding me, more than enough, to shut up. I dropped the rest at their houses, and was now, parking into my drive way. It was late, and I was hurrying into my house, hoping my mom was still here.

''Mom?'' I yelled in to the empty, and sadly quiet home. No answer, signing, I dropped my purse on the table and headed to the kitchen. There was a note from my mom on the table, tell me that she was on her way to New Yorks Fashion Week. I walked upstairs and changed into my pj's. As I went into the steaming shower, feeling utterly relaxed, I thought about my life. 18, going on 19. Living alone, in a gigantic, not to mention, Stunning, home. Awaiting daily, for my mothers non scheduled arrival.
