The night we met

1. Chapter (the café)

Hi that's a very awkward author this side .. I would be using the female character as (Y/N) (YOUR NAME) since I'm not good at keeping names

Date: 12th March
Place: A random coffee joint
(Starbucks if you rich)

*Y/N's Pov*

~It's seriously middle of March and the temperature is high already.. Or just a sunny day?~

I thought while walking in the coffee joint and placing my denim jacket on the seat..

I was having my coffee while I saw a few young men walking into the place  and sitting right in the table ahead of mine. Who seemed to look in their early 20s.

Though I didn't look at their faces (because it's rude to stare and we have social anxiety) I could have told they were four and were of my age.

I turned off my phone and started having my coffee in peace and my intuition told that someone from those guys table was staring at me.

The dude on the table was staring at me and just as I looked in his direction he started looking somewhere else towards his friends joining the laughter filled conversation.

It didn't even took me twice to realise who it was because he was just some one so close to me that I couldn't ever forget.

My used to be best friend

(Well we were ofcourse more than 'just best friends' or this won't be a romantic genre story)

And I felt so many emotions at once

Time went by and I was done with my coffee and he never even approached me or try talking with me and just kept smiling and staring occasionally.

It's like he wants me to talk or as they say making the first move and So I did. I couldn't just let it go after so many awkward stares.

And that person was worth the risk for me to get out of my 'anti social and introverted background'

Especially after glaring at each other so intensely
I gathered all my confidence just like 6 years ago and spoke up

"Hey " I said coming towards his table

And I felt so awkward

(Pfftt. I seriously can't I'm really bad at approaching people and that's the most I could do. But c'mon that's the most weird approach).

He finally spoke up
"Heyyyyy!" He waved and beamed happily

And asked his friends they could leave without him and so we were just left at that table..

(His name would be "C/N".If you already knew what does C/N means congrats you've been on Wattpad for a long time and I am not entering names because that would be weird, and I am paranoid about names)

He approached on the awkward silence between us saying with

"It's been a long, long time.. isn't it?"

I replied "Yea and ofcourse I had to make a move to talk to you just because you would never"

He giggled on that comment "I like to see if you could come out of your comfort zone for me"

"You know I always will"  Although I said that but I don't always intend myself to get such social trauma by approaching people

But I guess with that comment the 'just bestfriend scenario between us was provoked, maybe it always has been like this between us'

Rather than spending more time on the coffee joint we decided on my place to catch up on us. During the drive

Obviously I was driving since he didn't knew my new address

I put up the song 'The Night We met' on radio.

He knew this habit of mine to play songs while driving By Lord Huron and it felt comfortable after those 6 years and the sky got grey like it would rain any time.

I could feel him and his point of view and the environment and everything was comfortable it was like a every piece of puzzle of my life was in its place

It's been two years till the last visit we made which was not really on a good note. We were just normal college students but on the day of 12th March

(Coincidence I think not) I was a 1st year student in one of the best colleges of my country which was huge

(mweh pretend you're intelligent because you're beautiful already my reader ;) )

I walked into the class on the first day which was pretty much empty I don't remember if it was empty or not because what caught my attention was his eyes which were lovingly staring in my soul.. Making the first move I sat in the seat just behind his. It was the first time in life I thought I would like to get out of my anxiety for a person. The sky was grey like it is in the present and I heard a familiar music beside me

'when the night was full of terror and your eyes were filled with tears '

I recognised it was from the song The night we met. This song never defined sadness but a lack of emotion.. This song showed emptiness in a person and their emotions which was not in a good way I felt the same way before C/N I never had anyone who made me feel emotions before beside my family.

It was one thing which started a conversation between us 6 years ago
I don't know anything about us now or are we even friends at this point.

But this time I again feel the emptiness

Which was for the first time comfortable

I don't know what way are we leading to

But for sure I'll give it a shot

Because I don't know what will happen if I didn't
