“It’s quite a funny story of how I met El, I had been sitting alone in a coffee
“It’s quite a funny story of how I met El, I had been sitting alone in a coffee shoppe a little bit off campus working on a term paper due at the end of the week when I saw her walk in. It was strange but for some reason I was drawn to her, something about her just captivated me. She just had this way about her that was so sweet and gentile, I could barely even take my eyes off of her. I had been too afraid to actually go up and talk to her and instead sat watching her as she walked out of the shoppe without even a glance towards me. Needless to say I spent the rest of the day thinking about her totally ignoring my paper, I just couldn’t get her off my mind. No matter how hard I tried to focus on my topic, I kept drifting off in thoughts of her. So from then on forward, I began to show up at exactly 8:45 just so I would be on time for when she came to get her coffee at 9, sometimes she would come late and a bit frantic, probably one of the cutest sights I had ever seen watching her rushing in and out with a worried look on her face. Then there were a few times when she would get there before I would and I would sit waiting till I was forced to leave in order to make it to class on time. Those were always the worst days, I would sit there like a dog jumping up every time I heard the door open. And so I had been telling the boys about my secret coffee girl for weeks now and they kept trying to convince me to talk to her but I just couldn’t. I guess I liked the fact that I could still admire her from a far and not have to worry about her not liking me or me acting like a fool. I had a perfect image of her in my head that I didn’t want to ruin by being myself. But I knew I couldn’t just sit in the corner of the shoppe spying on her for the rest of my life, if I really wanted her I had to go for it I just could never find the right way to go at it. Then one day Harry came running into the house shouting for me, I rushed out of the room thinking it was something serious like he had been hurt or something but when he told me that he knew who my secret coffee girl was I could hardly contain myself. He said her name is Eleanor, they were in the same philosophy class and she had mentioned to him about a boy at Starbucks she had her eyes on and the description reminded him of me. As you could tell I was in total shock, the girl I had been secretly yearning for had been doing the same to me? Things like that just never really ever happened to me. But I still had no idea how to start up the conversation without making it too awkward so Harry came up with an idea to buy her coffee before she got there and have the cashier give it to her making sure to tell her it was from me. Zayn had added that I should have them write "To the prettiest girl I’ll see all day” on drink instead of her name. After thinking it over and lots of pacing around, I decided to give it a shot the next day. So I got to the coffee shoppe earlier than I usually do, mostly because I have absolutely no patience, but I told the cashier my idea and she was excited to help. I sat in my usual spot waiting, I think I chewed off half of my nails in anticipation. But when I saw her finally walk in I felt my heart start beating faster than it had ever done in my life. I swear I was more nervous about watching her reaction than I was when i auditioned for X-Factor. But as she went to the cashier and was handed the coffee. She looked confused as she was handed the coffee but as she read what was written on the side I could see a smile crossing her face as the cashier pointed to where I was and I waved shyly towards them. She returned the wave as she giggled a bit as she walked over to me, she thanked me for the coffee and introduced herself. I did my best to introduce myself as I stumbled over my words but thankfully she thought it was cute. I invited her to sit down and we began talking and found out how much we had in common, it truly was fate that had brought us together. The best part of that day was the fact that we had spent so much time talking that we had both missed our 10 AM classes. After a good laugh, I walked her back to her dorm and asked if I could see her again and she said yes then after a few dates I finally asked her to be my girlfriend and here we are now! I don’t think I would ever be happy with anyone else but her, she’s my everything.“ -Louis -- source link
