"Are you done?" I ask.

"Yeah, I just gotta turn this wallet in. Found it on the floor over there." Tucker says.

Tucker shows to wallet to me and I see names on it.

"You wanna sign this?" Y/n asks.

"Why would you want me to sign your wallet?" I ask.

"Couldn't afford a yearbook so this is it." Y/n says.

I laugh and Y/n smiles. She hands me the marker and I write my name in the corner.

"I know who's wallet that is. Y/n Y/l/n's from high school." I say.

"That was 2 years ago, why would she still have the same wallet? She could buy a wallet making company if she wanted to." Tucker says.

I open the wallet and see Y/n's license in the wallet.

"Told you." I say.

"We can just take it to her. Better than some rando pretending it's their wallet and stealing her identity." I say.

30 minutes later...

I knock on the door and it opens.

"How may I help you?" The woman asks.

"Fuck!" Someone shouts from inside.

"Uh, I found this wallet." I say.

"Good, she's been looking for it." The woman says.

"Y/n." The woman calls.

"I'm not buying any more Girl Scout cookies!" Y/n says walking to the door.

Y/n stares at me for a few seconds and smiles.

"I haven't seen you in years!" Y/n says hugging me.

"Come in, come in." Y/n says.

I smile and follow her inside.

"I found your wallet." I say.

"Oh thank god. You are an angel. Thank you so much." Y/n says.

"You can have that." Y/n says taking money out of her wallet.

"Anything for an old friend." I say.

Y/n smiles and nods.

Y/n and Tucker were best friends their senior year. I was a sophomore but I had a class or two with her. I was really interested in Y/n but she was on lockdown.

"You got a pen?" Y/n asks.

I hand Y/n a pen and she smiles.

Isabelle stares at us and shakes her head.

Isabelle watches over Y/n like her life depends on it. We get it, you're a couple, you don't need to get mad every time someone breathes the same air as Y/n.

Does she feel the energy the way that I do?
In the air whenever we get in the same room?

They broke up and Y/n never got in another relationship. I still didn't make a move because Y/n and I weren't friends. The only connection we had was her being friends with my brother and us being lab partners. But, oh, I thought about it.

And I don't wanna cross the line
Does she know I'm thinking 'bout her plenty?

"How are you?" Y/n asks.
