I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock.as expected , the rays of morning sunshine greeted my eyes.

Half heartedly,I switched off my alarm and sat upright, the pinky looking duvet still covering me..it was supposed to be a happy day or so I thought.

I had a lot of things to do today. I took a few deep breaths and went for my daily routine.
I went for a cold shower which was quite unusual for me coz I always went for a hot one. I know most people find it strange.. but being me, I find calmness it people's strangeness..so yeah..I was hot shower person.

All the while, I was lost in thoughts,which isn't quite unlikely for me coz I'm a great day dreamer(yay me) . After wat felt like eternity , I came out of the shower and changed into a pair of jeans and a Batman t-shirt . Yeah , I was quite a fan of Batman!!
I took my duffel and went downstairs.

First thing on my list of to-do was to meet Greg at the cafe. You would definitely love to think Greg was my pathetic bestie who wanted to see me this early. But no, you are absolutely wrong coz Greg Daniels is my BOYFRIEND. I repeat boy - freaking - friend!!

I know it's a lot to take in. Being just a high school student and having normal looks, people never spared a second glance towards me. But things were different with Greg .meeting him and getting to know him was a completely different experience.he was a simple person. Both of us were not a fan of this cheesy romance thing and our relationship was quite simple.we would meet up outside once in a while ..go for dinner or movies ,where , being the gentleman he was , he'd insist to pay or open the door for me.

We went to the same school-mountain valley high.but we didn't have all subjects in common.It was simple for my family to accept him as my boyfriend because
1) by family, I mean an elder brother .both my mam and dad died in a car crash. and since my brother had already 18 , he was my legal guardian and we had an apartment to ourselves.
2) my brother didn't care about who I dated or who I did not unless that boy hurt me.
  3) my brother and boyfriend shared a common passion -freaking-friend.Both of them were members of the 74 football club and as Greg was a good player, my brother got along with him quite well.

  Greg's family was a small and happy one.His dad was a famous businessman and very successful one at that. His mother helped his dad in the business and all in all they made a cute lovely couple. He has a younger sister -Ana .Ana is pretty blonde who turned 6 last month.

Ana and Greg shares the same bluish grey eye colour that they have inherited from their mom. His sister was an easy thing to get along with. Ana looked like a miniature version of Mrs.Daniels while Greg got most of his features from his dad . He has a well built body, hard jawline and high cheek bones just like his dad. And both of them are crazy about bikes!!

Now, when I think about how we met an year ago, i still feel it hard to believe that he is mine.A few years ago, of anyone would have said that I, a pathetic Lea Waters would end up being Greg Daniels' gf, I would have laughed at their face.

He had been very considerate with me and he made  sure to take things slowly as all this happens to be new to me. He earned my trust quite well  and I couldn't find any reason to not let me open up to him. he stood by my side even when he didn't have to. He offered a shoulder Everytime I cried. He comforted me with words and made me see the positive in reality.

The most good quality that drew me to him was the fact that he wasn't too judgemental. He was never the one to break his words too.

(Okay that was too much for an introduction..I guess .so getting back to the current situation)

The very thought of meeting him made me smile. It was 2 weeks since I last met him. He had gone to Australia to meet up with his cousins and had skipped school. AHe had invited me but I politely declined.

I dried my hair and left it open as he liked it that way. I was not a fan of makeup ..so I just went with some lipgloss and completed my outfit with my white sneakers.

I left my room and passed by a still closed bedroom . So I guess my brother Niall was not up yet. On my way out , I grabbed a granola bar to compensate my breakfast.

I reached the cafe on time. The lady greeted me with a smile and directed me towards a table.(me and Greg came here very often and the lady knew us well) Greg was already there at that table with his back to me.

Something in me moved seeing him. He looked....so different .I could say that without seeing his face. His shoulders were tense. I had a strange vibe that this was not going to end well.
