Hey guys! Here I am (again) with an update! *cheering and applause in the background* Sorry, it took so long but my proofreader pointed something out so I had to kind of rewrite an entire chapter and because I'm a lazy fuck I didn't really got on with it, BUT but! Now the next chapter is just waiting to be uploaded, so if you guys want it, you'll have to ask me ^^ I hope you like it and review and stuff. Critiques (Is this a word? Do you understand what I mean with this?) is always welcome! Love you all!

One day in October I was walking to the store because obviously, I needed supplies and food. It had been a while since I went shopping but now the refrigerator looked empty so I decided to fill it. So I was walking through the streets of Manchester where I lived and suddenly I tripped. I fell on my face. Yes, I know, I am so clumsy! Thank goodness it wasn't raining otherwise I'd have fallen in a puddle too. The weather was actually really nice for it being October already. So yeah, there I was, lying on the [cold, hard] ground when a stranger came running up to me.

'Phil, are you okay?' I heard him/her shout.

Phil? How does this stranger know my name, I thought before looking up. When I did look up, I saw it was Dan. I suddenly was very embarrassed and felt my cheeks redden.

I slowly got up in the hope Dan would walk about but instead of doing so, he helped me get up.

'Come on; let's get you to sit down.'

Everything hurt when I tried to walk to the nearest bench. Dan put his arm around my waist and I leaned on him quite heavily but I didn't really care since I was in a lot of pain. We reached the bench and he helped me sit down. He sat next to me and asked if I was okay.

'I think I'm fi…' I moved a bit because I wasn't sitting comfortably and I moaned softly.

'Yeah shit, you aren't' he countered. I noticed Dan cursed a lot which worried me a bit because I really don't like cursing or hearing those words.

'Hehehe, I guess I'm not' I smiled. I don't know why I was smiling, but the presence of Dan made me act all weird.

'Uhm, thanks for helping me' I said to Dan. He shrugged.

'It's nothing. I'm happy I was here at the right time otherwise you'd probably still be lying there.'

'I bet I would. Oh god, this is typically me, being all clumsy and stuff.'

'No, it's kind of cute to be honest' Dan answered.

I blushed, just like he did. 'Not really, but thanks though.' I smiled at him. He was really nice.

We then talked until Dan looked at his watch and suddenly jumped up. He said 'Oh my god, I totally forgot! I have a meeting to go to. Oh shit, why are there so holes in my brain?'

'Oh…'

'I'm really sorry. Will you be okay? Like to go home and stuff?'

'What? Me? Oh, yeah, yes of course. You go to your meeting.' I smiled.

'Thanks Phil! See you later!' and with that he ran away.

One minute later I remembered I didn't ask for his number. I facepalmed. I mentally killed myself. I groaned, got off the bench and walked home. All the way there, I thought about Dan and how we, weirdly enough, seemed to click instantly. I seriously regretted not asking for any contact information.

When I got home, I took some painkillers and carefully popped myself on the couch. I played some Halo and when I got tired, I went to bed and slept until 1 pm the next day. My body didn't ache that much anymore so I continued with my normal routine. Every once in a while (okay, every day) I thought about Dan and the way he blushed when he said me being clumsy was cute. Was I starting to fall for a guy I didn't even know?
