an old friend becomes more

Chapter 1

Hi, I'm Hailey, and I live in New Jersey. I grew up in Jersey my whole life. I used to work for the police department here, but I gave that up a long time ago. But know I work at a small cafe.

I left the police department after my old friend Danny left to fallow his ex-wife and daughter. It just wasn't the same without Danny there. I still remember him leaving like it was yesterday.

"Dan, are you sure you have to leave?" I asked Danny. I never thought I had to say goodbye to him. He looked at me with sad eyes, indicating. He had to even though he didn't want to.

I felt my eyes well up with tears. Danny hugged me tight. Trying to make me hurt less. It didn't help. I just full-on sobbed in his embrace.

"I'm sorry, Haile. I don't want to, but I have to for grace, " He said. Rubbing my head as I sobbed. I knew he didn't want to leave me. He didn't want to leave his best friend behind.

"Dan, promise me something," I said. I looked up at him with tears streaming down. He cupped my face and wiped my tears.

"Anything," He said. I looked at him. I cupped his face in my hands.

"Promise me that we will see each other again no matter how many years." I said. He smiled at me with tears forming.

"I promise Haile, I'll miss you," He said. But before he left, he gave me a kiss on the lips. After he pulled away, that made me cry even more.

Present day

I was in the break room, remembering what happened that day. Every time I think about it, I start to tear up. I felt a hand on my shoulder. It was my coworker and a close friend Hanna.

"You were thinking about him, weren't you Haile?" Hanna asked. Seeing my tears stream down. I shook my head, yes, starting to sob.

"I miss him so much. Do you know the last thing he did before he left?" I asked. I never told her this part of the story. She looked at me with a raised eyebrow.

"No, I don't think you told me," She said. I looked at her and then looked down. Ever since that kiss, I felt this whole in my heart. I loved Danny more than a friend.

"He kissed me, Han." I said. She was shocked. She hugged me tight. She knew I was heartbroken from that day.

"You need to find him Haile it's the only way you're gonna feel better about him," Hanna said, pulling away. I thought about it for a minute. She was right. I need to find him and talk to him.

When I got home. I knew Danny lived in Hawaii since Rachel and Grace were there. I booked a flight to Ohau. I also knew he worked with Five-o. I've seen them on TV once in a while.
