I was walking around the store, looking at the guitars I definitely can't afford.
I went to look through the CDs, maybe there's something new.
I grabbed a couple CDs and started walking to the cashier.
I was staring at my feet and accidentally bumped into someone.
"Agh shit, sorry" I said, dropping some of the CDs onto the floor.
I crouched down to get the CDs not facing the stranger.
"Are you okay?" The person asked.
"I'm fine just a little startled" I looked up.
The person was a tall guy with curly brown hair and an apologetic smile on his face.
He was holding a guitar.
"I should've watched where I was going" I mumbled.
"It's alright" he said.
I got the CDs back in my hands and continued walking.
I put the CDs on the counter and waited for the cashier to scan them.
"Have a good day" the cashier smiled.
"You too" I replied blankly.

I walked back home still thinking about the guitarist guys from earlier.
He was so nice.
Usually bumping into people causes them to yell at me like I just killed their whole family or something.
I put the CDs on my shelf and went to the kitchen to make food for myself since my roommate is still at work.
I grabbed some bacon and put on a frying pan.
I turned on the stove and set down the pan.

When the bacon was done I put it on a plate and started eating.
After I was done I just sat on the couch watching tv, waiting for my roommate to get home. I'm not able to pay the bills on my own so I have a friend living with me paying half of them.
"Hey Y/N/N!" My roommates voice echoed form the hallway.
"Oh Hi Frank!" I yelled. "How was work?"
"Just as boring as usual"
"That sucks. I went to the music store nearby and bought some CDs"
"What did ya get?"
"I got some Green Day CDs and a Misfits one because I know you love 'em"
"Y/N you're the best!"
"I also bumped into this guy, he was super nice, and he plays guitar too" I said
"Did you literally bump into him?" Frank asked.
"Yes, yes I did"
"Did he yell at you?"
"Surprisingly no, he was really nice about it"

The sun was setting and both of us decided to go to sleep, tomorrow I'd have a long shift at work and so would Frank.

I sat on my bed and started at the wall for a moment.
That guy from the store was pretty cute.
Maybe I should say hi if I see him again.
I let my body relax and slumped onto the bed.
He was like a ray of sunshine.
I couldn't stop thinking about him, he was so sweet.
I fell asleep with just the moment when I bumped into the guy playing in my head.
