(Sara's POV)

What are you supposed to feel when you see a guy in the window across to yours with his eyes bulging out and mouth hanging open?
Oh! I didn't tell you, did I?
So this morning I got up from an unusually familiar bed (not mine. No, I didn't have a one night stand.) that belonged to my bestie (see) yawning and stretching. Luckily, I m blessed with real smooth hairs that do not resemble a bird's nest every morning (unlike T's) I turn the music on and start dancing to the beats of 'I want you to know' by Selena Gomez without giving a care about the world. (I m a pretty good dancer anyway)Fun fact: Tia slept through that loud music! That girl is the human version of Snorlex I tell you. She can sleep through anything.
I was swaying my hips and turning when something caught my eye. Rather, someone. There in the window opposite was a guy standing in a plain white tee and grey sweatpants, his hair messily falling over his forehead, his eyes wide and a whole lot of toothpaste foam covered his mouth and he stood there frozen with a toothbrush in his hand looking directly at me as if taking in all of me. The way he looked at me make forget how stupid I might have looked dancing like nobody's around in just my shorts and tight tank top and my my hairs flailing around. And as if on cue the song changed to Zayn Malik's 'pillow talk' ( let's say the song does things to me) and I could sense myself blushing crimson and the guy's now somewhat intense gaze made me squirm as Zayn belted out the lyrics (Zayn! You're not helping dude!) And then, T groned (I know why but I can't let you know *wink*) and I jolted out of the trance and the guy's eyes locked with mine. Hearing T shuffling the sheets, I moved forward towards the window and closed the curtains in a hurry. I turned around as I heard the words 'reckless behaviour' and tried to calm my frantic heart, thinking aloud "who is that guy living at ms. Lily's apartment after so many years?" And how did he manage to make my harmones go crazy in just one sight of him! Just one look and I had his face memorized. His wide eyes, his open mouth.. And then it dawned on me I was dancing my heart out just in my shorts and tank top with no bra on!!
