Dear Simon,

Scarlet didn't come to school today and she wont pick up her phone. I hope she's alright, she didn't seem like herself yesterday. My grades are back to normal since I haven't been hanging with the crew much, but on my way out of my last class today, I heard a voice come from the parking lot, the familiar voice. I turned my head to see the tall black haired, blue eyed man that I've barely said more than three words to for the last month. My heart jumps into my throat and begins racing right then and there. I notice he cut his hair. It's so short now that I can see his forehead, his eyes look brighter now that they have their time in the spotlight.

"Hedy." He calls casually and beckons for me to come over to him as he stood by his car.

I change direction and begin walking over. I wipe my hands on my jeans because I know I have already started sweating from nervousness. I've missed him so much. How do I hide that? Even with Scarlet as a temporary distraction. Her wondering hands didn't make me feel half as good as the look Linc used to give me.

I approach him and stand a few feet in front of him, the wind playing with the strands of hair not tucked into my messy bun.

"Hi." I say as casual as I can. It doesn't come out as I want it to.

He shoves his hands into his pockets and he almost looks speechless, like he doesn't know what to say either. I begin.

"I'm so sorry." I mumble loud enough for him to hear and the whole nonchalant facade I was trying to build before is shattered.

He looks at me, his eyes still a little harder than I would like, but his face softens and he turns away from me and looks to the side of him. I don't know what emotion he was trying to hide. Maybe trying not to look at me so he won't ave to forgive me.

I continue. "I was wrong... and I don't think that of you at all. I know you aren't that guy. You've proven that. I was wrong."

He turns his face to look at me now and I wait for the acceptance. My eyes beg for it.

He moves his face close to mine and softly kisses me. I feel it throughout my body and nothing Scarlet ever did holds this much power. I've missed his lips so much.

"Okay." He says with soft eyes. I sigh in relief, a burden feels like it has been lifted from me.

He puts his hands on my face, cupping it and he pulls my face to his and kisses me a dozen more times until I am smiling and then until he's smiling.

"I missed you." He mumbles against my lips.

I wrap my arms around his neck and bury my face into his neck. His smell is the same, I inhale deeply.

"I missed you too." My voice is muffled but he knows what I said. "So much."

I slide my hands through his short hair, it feels different. But I like it.

"You cut your hair." I say looking at him briefly. He nods and smiles at me, even his eyes are smiling. He really was happy to have me back.

"Needed to change it up a little."

I tug at it and I kiss him again. He laughs and lifts me up and I giggle and scream. My feet are hanging over his shoulder. He opens his car door and places me in the passenger seat, laughing with me.

"This counts as kidnapping." I say pretending to be bothered.

He gets into the driver's seat and turns to look at me briefly, like he always used to.
