   William and Sebastian are both in the basement and they might be down there for awhile. This gives me a chance to look around. I want to find out what they were talking about last night, since apparently they know so much about me. Which of course isn't weird at all. 

   I head upstairs, walk to the end of the hall and take a right. I think I'm in Sebastian's room. I first look in his nightstand and all I see is a flashlight, bible, 9 mm Glock, and a photo album. I flip through it and stop at a picture that shows William and Sebastian together. I flip to the next one and freeze. It's a picture of William, Sebastian and me. We're in the same place that I was at last night. We are about 15 years old. I'm sure I would've remembered this. Especially since it was possibly four years ago.

   I put it back and head into the closet. You know for a guy, Sebastian is pretty neat. There's a whole bunch of shoe boxes stacked on the floor. One that catches my eye is the one that has the big letter M written on it. I reach down for it, something grabs me around the waist and picks me up.

   "What are you doing in here?" I hear Sebastian's voice say.

   He puts me down on his bed and goes to close the closet door. Then he plops a seat next to me. 

   "Why?" He asks.

   I let out a huge breath and fall back.

   "I want to understand." I say.

   He turns to face me and gives a 'what are you talking about look'

   "What do you want to understand?" He asks. He lays down next to me, his face merely half and inch away from mine.

   "Why you did it." I say. 

   "It's a long story." He says, his lips almost lightly brush mine. 

   "I have all the time in the world considering you're probably not gonna let me go." I reply.

   He smiles. I notice that he has dimples.

   "Do you remember anything from the place we were at last night?" He asks.

I don't know what he was expecting but I said no and a look of disappointment appeared in his eyes. What exactly is it that he wants me to remember?

    "If you could show me or tell me or give me hints or something! It would help Sebastian. I mean, how hard is it to-"

   He kissed my lips. Soft and firm. They feel familiar and yet I don't know him. I might have at one point. Our lips seal together and he groans. I felt a shiver go through my spine. His knee goes in between my thighs. Hooking my leg over his. 

   He then removes himself from me.

   "I got to go." He said. Then walks out the door.
