Chapter 1
It was a 9am start, finally reaching college after a challenging travel, Ally made her way to the entrance of her building, entering into the warmth of the foyer. Apart from coming in to learn, she was meeting a guy she had been talking to on msn, a guy she was told about, by a friend. Just the sound of his name and how nice he was intrigued Ally. And after she saw a picture, she was hooked.
She turned the corner, searching for Lewis; skimming the room quickly and briefly her eyes met his, lent over body that was occupied by a phone, he was surrounded by 3 or 4 other guys from his class. Ally didn't go over straight away, she was a shy girl, and not the type to walk up and say hi. Although once you get to know her, it's hard to shut her mouth.
She decided to grab herself a latte, something that became a regular at the foyer cafe. After mixing in some sugar and pressing a lid on top, she pulled a chair over to a deserted table, dropped her belongings on the floor, and pretended to occupy herself, so she didn't look lonely. Sitting where she was, still with Lewis in easy view, she glanced a few times every minute, to see if Lewis would ever look up.
At the point of Lewis looking up, Ally quickly whipped her head back in her direction, away from Lewis.
After having enough of sitting by herself, she made her way down the corridor, where her classroom was, again dropped her belongings on the ground, and slid down the wall till she was sitting on the floor. She shuffled to the end of the wall so she had a straight on view of Lewis, eventually he realised it was her and made his way up the corridor. With a tall slim frame, and long strides, making his way up the corridor, Ally pulled herself up off the ground, to greet Lewis.
"I thought it was you" he spoke, in a very distinct Yorkshire accent. "I did see you, but you seemed engrossed with something on your phone, so I didn't want to disturb you" Ally said with nerves catching in her throat. "You should of still come and said hey". He said in the same tone.
"Truthfully, I was too shy to come and say hi" Ally giggled as a blush blossomed on her cheeks
"Pussy" he chuckled sarcastically, but Ally wasn't offended, using that kind of language herself, she was desensitised and just giggled along with him.
The two of them talked a little while longer, 10 minutes had past, not one of those minutes were wasted in Ally's mind.
"Right I'm off for a fag" Lewis said finishing off the conversation, ending it with a one arm hug. Strolled down the corridor and out of Ally's view.
Lowering her head, to hide the uncontrollable grin on her face, she slides back into place on the floor, when the rest of class started to turn up.
"Who was he?" one asked. "oh just a friend" she replied, still with a smile and giggle.
