Right Now (repost)

Chapter 2
Lauren’s P.O.V
I wake up the next morning to the sound of laughter. I get out of bed and check my phone; it’s 9:24a.m. I walk over to the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror; for once I don’t look depressed. My face has color and my eyes look bright. I splash cold water onto my face and keep staring at this girl in the mirror that I haven’t seen in a while.
I walk to the kitchen and find all my friends already dressed in their cute little outfits, all laughing and having breakfast.
“Wow you guys didn’t wake me up.” I say slightly annoyed while grabbing some coffee and a donut.
“You looked so peaceful and adorable, plus you drove all the way here so we thought we would let you sleep at least.” Kristabel spoke for everyone.
“Aw thanks guys!” I say before eating some breakfast and then going to get ready. For today I decide to wear my light wash high waisted shorts, my daisy crop top and some white converse. I leave my hair all-natural and down and just put on some mascara for makeup.

We all head out for some sight seeing and we’re just walking around this beach area.
“Oh guys we should go into that store!” Ariel says pointing to this store that looks really cool. We all walk inside and its really neat. It looks like a bohemian kind of store and there’s candles everywhere and really cool clothes. As I’m looking around I feel someone bump into me.
“Oh my gosh I’m so sorry, are you alright?” this tall guy with these piercing blue eyes and a British accent asks.
“Yeah I’m fine. I was in your way so you’re all good.” I say trying not to stare at him too much.
“You sure? I hit you pretty hard.”
“Haha yeah I’m fine, no damage done.”
“Well good, I’m Louis by the way.”
“Lauren, nice to meet you.” I reach my hand out to shake his and get chills the second he touches me.
“Well Lauren I hope to see you around, it was lovely bumping into you.” He says with a smirk and then walks out.
I’m just left standing there like an idiot but I really don’t know what to say. He was so mesmerizing, those eyes and that smile. Wow.
“Oh my god, who was that?” Monique comes up to me with the rest of the girls. They are really giddy about what just happened.
“His name is Louis, we just bumped into each other.” I say really calmly, I don’t want to freak out or anything. I probably won’t ever see him again, I mean California is a big state and he has a British accent. He’s probably visiting here or something who knows.
“It looked like you guys were flirting, wow he was really hot.” Kristabel says.
“Did you get his number?” Ariel asks.
“Yeah he was hot and no I didn’t. We just bumped into each other that’s all. He has a British accent, I don’t even think he lives here.” I said.
“Wow well hopefully you see him again because he looked pretty into you.” Monique says before we leave the store.

The rest of the day we just went into little shops along the pier and met some guys. Well actually the other girls did, they were all over these guys at the mall we went to. Its not that I wasn’t interested but I just couldn’t stop thinking about Louis. Everywhere we went I found myself kinda hoping he would be there or show up but I never saw him.

We get back to the hotel and I check my phone, I have three texts from Cameron.
“Hey(:”
“Lauren I really miss you”
“Can you call me later?”
Why? I thought. Why does he want to talk to me so bad? And why would he think I would talk to him? I thought we cleared things up yesterday and after what he put me through I would never want to talk to him again.

“Hey is everything okay?” Ariel asked as she got out of the bathroom.
“Yeah just Cameron texted me. But its nothing important, you know he’s just really stupid.” I said forcing a laugh to make myself feel better.
“Lauren don’t worry about him, worry about that guy you met today and where you can see him again. Maybe we’ll see him tomorrow.” She gave me a smile. This is why she’s my best friend she can always make me feel better.

Tomorrow we decided on going to Disneyland so maybe I would see Louis there. I went to bed thinking about what I would do if I did in fact see him there.
