"The number you are trying to reach is unavailabl-" The annoying operator's voice began but I hung up the phone before she was able to finish. I've been trying to reach Lily for the past hour but she isn't answering. Fuck, I bet the number she gave me wasn't even her real number, she probably felt bad about saying 'no' and gave me a fake number instead.  

I threw my phone on the couch and fell buried my head in my hands. My mind was swarming with different thoughts. Most of them being about Lily. I'm positive that the bartender Lily is the same Lily who supposedly 'died' six years ago. I'm not sure how but I know that is her. I just fucking know it.  

Still, I want to make sure that I'm right about my predictions. If my suspicions are correct, then that means Oli is going to get the opportunity to get Lily back. I want to tell him, I want to call him and tell him that I think I found Lily but... I can't. Bring Me The Horizon is finishing up their South American tour and I know that Oli would drop everything if I told him I had found Lily.  

If that is the real Lily then, why hasn't she recognized me yet? Surely, she would have recognized her childhood friend or, she would have at least fly back to Sheffield, right? Unless, she lost her memory or something like that. Maybe, that's why she hasn't recognized me.  

Suddenly, my phone began to ring. I quickly grabbed it, hopping that by some weird miracle, it would be Lily calling but to my disappointment, it was Hannah instead. Things between Hannah and I have been getting really rough. Although I think I love her, things are getting really rough between us. She's growing distant and I honestly don't think she still loves me. It's not like I can't say the same though.  

"Hey Hannah, what's up?" I asked, hoping that whatever reason she called me for, she would just tell me quickly so I can go back and try calling Lily again. Even though I know she wont pick up because her number is 'unavailable'. 

Hannah sighed, "Josh, I have to tell you something." She began, fuck, I already know this phone call isn't going to end well. "I think we need a break. I just... I don't think this is working out anymore and.... I'm sorry Josh but, the other night... I.... I..." She trailed off and began sobbing on the other line. 

I didn't know what to say so I just sat there, waiting for her to calm down and finish up what she was going to tell me.  

"Josh... I, I slept with someone else. I'm sorry." She finished, still sobbing.  

My hands gripped on the phone and I did my best to hold back the urge of cussing Hannah out for cheating. She's still Oli's sister and if I do anything to her, I know he's going to get pissed at me. "I have to go." I muttered before hanging up.  

Shoving my phone inside my pocket, I grabbed a random jacket and quickly pulled it on before walking out of the back lounge of our bus. Ignoring the guys, I stormed off the bus and started walking out of the venue.  

Thankfully, there weren't a lot of fans who came up to me to ask me to sign something. I love my fans, I really do but I don't want them to see me in such a prissy mood. They'd probably think I was annoyed by them or something like that.  

I continued walking down the street until I reached some coffee shop. Walking inside, I sighed in relief once I saw that there was only about three other people inside the shop. Those people being the workers and an old couple sitting at one of the booths.  

After ordering whatever I first saw on the menu, I payed the cashier and walked out of the store. Suddenly, I felt someone run into me, causing the coffee to fall onto the floor below us. Normally, something like this wouldn't have pissed me off as much as it did but with Lily giving me a fake number and Hannah cheating on me, I wasn't exactly in the best mood.  

"Oh my god, I am so sorry!" The female voice exclaimed. I looked up at felt my eyes widen at the blonde looking back at me with apologetic eyes.  

She had long, strawberry blonde hair, brown eyes and looked like she was in the middle of jogging, judging by her blue sports bra and running tights.  

"Here, let me buy you another." She said before leading me back inside the coffee shop. She ordered two coffees before leading me to an empty booth.  

"I'm sorry, for bumping into you.... and spilling your coffee." She apologized, blushing slightly.  

I laughed quietly, "It's alright. I'm Josh." I smiled.  

The blonde returned the smile, "I'm Anna."  

Anna and I talked for a while more until Max had called me and reminded me that we had sound check in thirty minutes. Thankfully, Anna and I exchanged numbers, said our goodbyes and I left the coffee shop feeling perfectly content.  

I know, Hannah and I broke up little over two hours ago but....  

To Hell with it, Hannah's probably over me and I'm going to get over her.
