My Boy!!!

As Chloe strolled down the crowded corridor of her mother's work building, her mind was, as always on her ex boyfriend, Ryan. They had recently split, but still she could not get over him. They had been together for 6 months and everyone had said that they were the perfect couple. But, 1 week ago, Ryan had approached Chloe and told her straight that he thought they should see other people. After a day, she had found out he was with the class slut, Mandy Walker.

Crash!!!

Chloe collided with another person in the corridor, paperwork flew everywhere and Chloe found herself fly to the floor with a thud to the head. As she looked up with sheer embarrassment, she saw the most handsome boy before her. He had short, spiked blond hair and bright blue eyes that gave off a mischievous feature. He wore joggers and a lose blue t-shirt to match his dazzling eyes. He looked around her own age. Chloe could not believe how handsome he was.

'Are you Ok?! The boy asked hurriedly as he extended a hand to help her up.

Chloe gratefully took it, finding her feet, removed her blonde curls from her face and smiled her best smile at the boy!

'I'm fine! I'm so sorry about that. Here let me help you!' she insisted as she started to pick up the loose pieces of paper the boy had dropped. When all pieces were collected, the boy smiled at Chloe and extended a hand to her.

'My name's Mark!'

'Chloe!' Chloe replied, trying to act normal, although inside she felt as if she would faint.

'So, what are you doing in a place like this? He asked as he clung to the pieces of paper with his hand.

'Oh, I've just been to see my mum. She works here!' she replied, embarrassed about how immature she sounded.

'I guess you mean Macy Carlson! You look just like her!'

'Everyone says that. So, do you work here?' she questioned, hoping that the conversation would never end.

'Well, no but yes!' he replied, laughing at the confused look on Chloe's face.

'My dad works here. I've had to help him out here for a month as a punishment.'

'Oh. What did you do!' Chloe asked, hoping she didn't sound too rude or eager.

'Oh' he laughed as he heaved gently.

'I, eh, sort of, beat up some boy because he tried to steal my girlfriend.'

'Oh' Chloe replied, disappointment showing on her face. He has a girlfriend.

'But don't worry' he quickly continued. 'I'm split up with that girl now. I still want your number.'

Chloe stared at him, a slow smile spreading across her face, taken aback at the sudden gesture.

'I mean, that is, if you want me to have your number' he quickly added, not wanting to sound too desperate.

'NO! of course you can have my number.' She almost shouted, embarrassed at how eager she sounded.

She quickly got a pen and note pad from her bag and scribbled down her number.

'You won't mind if I ask you on a date then?' he asked her, growing more confident.

She almost screamed in delight. 'Of course you can ask me on a date!' she replied as she handed the paper neatly folded to Mark.

'I can only do Wednesdays and Saturdays because I have football and Boxing the other days.'

Chloe looked at him and realized why he was so fit. At least they would have something to talk about. Her sister did Boxing.

'That's fine!' she replied.

'Well, I've gotta get going. I'll ring ya about noon tomorrow' He said before he strolled casually down the corridor. Chloe watched him walk round a corner before she started jumping up and down with a huge grin on her face.
