6:06 AM THURSDAY 23/4/15 - RYDEN'S POV

I turned towards where I usually sat after I had paid Patricia, but there were already people there. A girl, maybe seventeen. There was another girl in front of her with her back to me.

Something about her seemed familiar, but I wasn't sure what.

I stood, staring at her, trying to figure out what was familiar. I tilted my head. I couldn't see her face and it frustrated me.

The girl turned, glancing out the window, but her hair fell over the side of her face and I couldn't get a good look. She shoved it out of the way impatiently.

That's when I realised who I was looking at.

I saw her face, her chocolate eyes and her mouth and her button nose and the way her brown hair swung back in front of her face like a curtain. She shoved it out the way again. Every single detail was ingrained in my mind, because I loved her.

And she was right here. She was right there in front of me.

I finally spoke.

"Aidan?"
