I woke up and I rushed to get ready. I went to Eddie's house and told him how I met Peter and all the details with it all except my feelings for him.

"So you're saying you're replacing me as a best friend?! I am offended" he stated jokingly

"Eddie"

"Yes?"

"I like Peter like.. A lot. And I don't know if he likes me. I don't want to ruin a great friendship with him but when he left yesterday he kissed my forehead and asked me to go on a fake date with him" I was nervous I don't tell people how I feel.

"Tiffy listen, even if he does, do not rush into a relationship. Tonight when you see him I want you to get to know more about him. You've only known him for two weeks right?"

"Yes but I think I've known him longer"

"Okay you aren't making any sense here"

"I have seen him before is what I mean"

"It's a small town your old one is too"

"I don't know how to explain this to where it makes sense but I think there's five years of my life that I cannot remember. When I first met Peter I remembered something. I was walking down a very bright hallway that looked like a hospital. I remember turning around and seeing Peter, I talked to him. He looked younger and was wearing all white. It went black after."

"I would ask your mom about that, you probably got a concussion and it made you forget everything. No one brings it up because it could confuse you. Is that possible?" He asked trying to make sense of it

"Yeah...probably"

We spent the rest of the afternoon talking and playing board games. Chrissy came by so I left and let those two have their privacy. It was an hour until I met Peter at the drive-in. I put on a red long sleeved shirt, baggy jeans, and white shoes tennis shoes. I was almost done tying my shoe when the doorbell rang. I tied my shoes and ran to the door only to see Peter already inside, I forgot he can magically open doors. He was wearing a white shirt with a black leather jacket and jeans.

"Hey Peter" I smiled at him. The butterflies have multiplied.

"Hey, I thought I'd pick you up instead of meeting you there so it seems to him like we are actually together. Are you ready?"

I froze, he's said that to me before, I remember it I had crawled into something then I was in the woods.

"Tiffany?" Peter asked confused

"What? Oh yeah sorry. Let's go"

We were in his car, it was a light brown wooden looking car. I've never been in his car, I had no idea he had one being honest. I was too busy thinking about where I knew him from, if he knew me.

"Are you ok? Looks like something is on your mind" He asked looking over at me

"Just anxiety about seeing Jeff here. What if he says something that makes me upset?"

"I'll be there for you and make sure he never speaks to you again"

I had no idea how he meant that but I wouldn't want to be in Jeff's shoes. I was deep in my thoughts, my anxiety was so bad, it hasn't been this bad since I ran into Jason. I felt Peter put his hand on my thigh.

"It's ok, there's nothing to worry about. Plus we are here now"
