Calypso's POV
Everything that I ever wanted was a perfect relationship. Being me I'll never find it. I'll never find that one boy who will treat me right, treat me like a princess, and treat me like the only girl in the world. Is that too much to ask for? Is it too much to dream of? For now I will continue on with my life of a normal poor girl who works at the coffee shop and doesn't have enough money for anything. Waiting for the day for my prince in shining armor to come and sweep me off my feet.
As I walk to the coffee shop because my feet are my only source of transportation. Someone bumps into me and I drop my papers for the story I was writing.
"I'm sorry maybe next time you will pay attention to where you're walking." The stranger says rudely and continues on. I kneel to collect the papers.
"Oh hey let me help you." Another stranger says. I look up to see a guy with curly black hair and beautiful dark brown eyes. He is wearing dark blue jeans a white T-shirt with a leather jacket to top it off. He carries a guitar case on his back. I slowly stand up as does he.
"Thanks umm…" I start.
"Leo." He finishes as he reaches his hand out.
"Leo," I say taking his hand and shaking it.
"And you are?"
"Late for work." I say and start walking.
"Wait!" he says running to catch up. "What's your name?"
"Calypso." I say while continuing to walk.
"Can I call you Callie?"
"Sure but this will probably be the last time we ever see each other." I say as I turn and stop in front of the coffee shop.
"Well, if you gave me your number maybe we could meet again?" He takes out a pen and small piece of paper and scribbles something on it. A few seconds later her hands it to me. "Look, I'm also running late but here's my number. Give me a call if you want to hang out, get to know each other. I would definitely love to see your name on the cover of a book someday." He winks and turns to go. I feel my face warm up. I put the paper in my pocket and walk into the coffee shop. I enter the coffee shop and walk around the counter and go into the back room and put my stuff in my locker and grab my apron and tie it around my waist.
"Cal!" a familiar voice says as I walk behind the counter and take my place at the cash register. "Who were you talking to?"
"Just some guy, he helped me pic up my papers after some jerk knocked them out of my hand." I say to my friend Amber.
"Oh, he was cute." Amber winks at me and turns to take inventory. I roll my eyes. I do my work as usual which consists of taking orders for costumers at the cash register, cleaning tables after costumers leave, and other little jobs. Then as soon as I finish up the last table I realize that it is lunch time and we are closed for the next 1 and half hour. I grab my jacket, purse and my writing. I head to the cheap restaurant about a block down. It's my favorite place to go and they even play live music sometimes. I walk in and see the owner walking towards me.
"Cal! There's my girl." There's one thing you should know, my uncle owns the place. My uncle has taken care of me since I was 7 when my parents passed away due to a car crash. This is one reason I walk instead of drive places. My uncle has offered me a car but I refuse.
"Uncle Max." I hug him.
"How's it going Ginger?" I roll my eyes at the nickname. He calls me Ginger because of my hair color, I have an odd hair color, my mom had blonde and my dad brown so mine is just random.
"Great. I'm going to my normal booth. Can you tell George that I want the usual?"
"Of course Ginger." He walks off and greets costumers on the way. I make my way to my normal booth in the corner. I pull out my papers and start to write.
Writing is all I do. At my small apartment I have tons of notebooks in my office, papers everywhere. Writing has been my way to escape the world. I haven't thought of publishing because I don't think they are that good. Amber reads them all the time and says I should, even uncle Max thinks so. So I started one and can't find the perfect one to publish.
"Okay guys, today we have a very special guest New York's very own Leo Valdez performing his own On My Mind (A/N: Cody Simpson owns this.)
I'm sleeping through the day
I'm trying not to fade
But every SINGLE night
I've just been lying awake
Cause I, I can't get you off my mind
As I watch I recognize the face from this morning. I smile and turn my head to avoid eye contact. I try to continue writing but I can't help but look at him singing on stage. I start to find his black curls attractive.
Give me the chance to love you
I'll tell you the only reason why
Cause you are on my mind
I gotta know you feel it
What do you see when you close your eyes
Cause you are on my mind
You're on my mind
You're on my mind all day and night, oh
Cause you are on my mind
As soon as he ends he makes eye contact with me. I turn away.
"Thanks everyone, I'll be here next week so don't miss it." I watch him walk off stage. He hands his guitar to a blonde boy with electric blue eyes, he whispers something to him and they both look my way, I turn my head quickly. "Callie?"
"Hi, Leo" I say as he slips into the seat across from me. "What are you doing here."
"Performing what about you?" he smiles.
"I'm on my lunch break and my uncle runs the place so."
"You're Max's niece?"
"Yeah that's me."
"Cool, so what are you writing?" He asks as he takes the papers and begin reading.
"Oh nothing, it's not good anyway." I reach for the papers.
"Wait." He grabs my hand and puts it down on the table. "This is really good."
"Really," I ask.
"Yeah, ever consider publishing?" he lifts an eyebrow and looks at me.
"No, I never thought it was good enough."
"Well, it is. Anyway I have to run so I'll see you around." I take the papers as he hands them to me. "Oh, and by the way that would be a book I would buy." He says and then turns on his heal and walks back to the blonde and a girl with brown choppy hair and eyes that seem to change color. My uncle returns to me carrying a piece of pizza.
"Here Ginger." He says as he hands it to me.
"Thanks, umm I got to go, but umm I'll see you later Uncle Max." I take the pizza and my papers and go out the door. I eat and walk towards my apartment. I go to my office and call in to work and tell them something came up and I can't return. Then I continue writing my paper. My paper that would soon turn into my first book which I will eventually call The Start of Something New.
There we go with chapter 1. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this and please feel free to PM if you have any suggestions and as always, leave a review, favorite or follow if you liked it. I will be continuing this story.
