“Let’s go shopping!” Monica screamed as we walked towards the square of Dresden.

I rolled my eyes. Typical Monica. Of course I loved shopping too, but I wasn’t going to waste my time shopping in Dresden when we had so much to see.

“Why do you always do this to me?” She pouted.

“Stop pouting. It’s not really an attractive sight.” I laughed.

She smacked me across my arm and glared at me. “Rude.”

“Oh come on! Lighten up. We’ll have a look at the shops on the way back. Let’s not waste the daylight.” I tried to convince her.

“Yeh, yeh. Let’s go to the Zwinger palace!”

I smiled triumphantly. It was pretty easy to convince her, rather, I never listened to her.

I was trying to figure the way out while walking, head completely dug inside the tourist map when I felt myself walk into a wall. Well, a human wall.

“I’m so sorry.” the voice said while bending downwards to pick my map up. That voice sounded awfully familiar.

“It’s not your fault, I wasn’t seeing where I was walking an-” I stopped while I saw a familiar pair of eyes stare at me. “Alex?”

“Sophie, right?” he asked looking and sounding quite unsure.

“Do you guys know each other?” Monica asked confusedly.

“Er.. I guess. I mean we met a few years back.” I mumbled. When did he get so handsome? He was cute when I met him but not this handsome.

“Right.” she said, raising her eyebrows.

“Well how have you been? What have you been up to?” he asked, smiling.

Not all stories can be written right? Some have to be imagined by the readers…

 

 

We met downtown,  

While strolling around with our friends.

Our eyes met, recognition flashing through them.

Once upon a time we’d met,

Awkward for me, opening up to people takes time. 

You probably thought I’m a creep of some sort,

But when you recognized me, the warm smile you gave me, warmed my heart up. 

We exchanged greeting, fumbling with our words,

Just like all the nervousness we never had, started clogging up. 

Exchanging numbers seemed to have become the most difficult of difficult tasks, 

But once we did it, smiles were exchanged. 

We promised to hang out, which seemed like the world’s greatest idea, 

Looking forward I am, this time I will speak up.
