Robin walked into the apartment and read a note but the name was blurry. She discarded it and heard a noise. Frying pan in hand she explored the apartment before she came back into the livingroom. Her phone started to ring and the caller ID told her it was Shane. He was panicking and then everything went black.

Robin started and looked around frantically she was on the backseat of a car in someone's arms. She fell asleep on a bus and now she was in a car, what happened?

"Hey, it's okay I didn't want to wake you." Blaine soothed her, Robin looked up at him and saw his eyes were soft, a light skyblue with grey flecks around the pupil.

"Umm." Was all she could say, his face cracked into a smile.

"Are you still tired?" He asked concern hidden behind his light smile.

"Nope, do you know where about's we are?" She asked sitting up his arms unwrapped and she fiddled with her seat belt waiting for his answer.

"We arrived at the station in London a few minutes ago and we're catching a taxi to Hyde Park." Blaine told her and then the taxi driver coughed.

"Hyde Park. Have a nice day." He said with a tired smile. Blaine thanked him and handed him his money while Robin climbed out and looked around. Everything seemed familiar but different at the same time.

"Anything?" Blaine asked standing beside her as the Taxi drove away. Robin sighed and Strach had been unusually quiet since the bus journey.

"I don't know. I can remember the flat the number was... 22B. But that's all I remember about where it is. I do remember the smell of coffee though. When I walked into the bookshop back there the coffee reminded me of a place." Robin said staring ahead hoping the park would reveal some answers.

"How about we meet up with some of my friends who might be able to help you remember?" Blaine asked Robin kept staring at the park and then finally looked at him.

"Maybe later. Right now I just want to see something." Robin said chewing her lip nervously. Blaine clearly puzzled shrugged his shoulders and followed her as she crossed the road. She stood on the edge of the field the grass just at the tip of her trainers.

"So? Why are we stood here?" Blaine asked clearly not imperessed. Robin looked at him sharply, and he rolled his eyes.

Do you recognise this place? She asked Strach, there was a mild buzz but he didn't speak. She growled and ordered him to speak.

"No. I do not recognise this place. Do you? I think he's probably taken you somewhere completely different." Strach snapped and Robin growled at him to be careful with which tone he used.

"I recognise this place. I've been here before." Robin said to herself looking over the field, a jogger went past but Robin didn't notice. She took a step onto the field and heard someone shout.

"ROBIN! Hey!" Robin turned to see the jogger running up to her, the same jogger who just went past her a couple of seconds ago. Robin watched as the young slightly sweaty man jogged up to her.

"Hello?" She said, he seemed familiar but she couldn't remember why.

"How have you been? I haven't seen you at the cafe, are you still working there?" The jogger asked Robin's eyes widened.

"Umm. I don't want to seem rude but could you tell me your name?" Robin asked and the mans mouth turned down at the corners a fraction.

"You don't remember me? It's Dan." Robin stared at him trying to remember.

"I'm afraid we need to be going." Blaine announced holding Robin at her elbow. She tugged free.

"No. We don't," she said to Blaine and then turned to Dan. "Can I speak with you privately. How about at the little cafe that I work at?" Robin asked him. Dan looked between Robin and Blaine and then nodded.
