It was 5:55, and I was so nervous. I couldn't stop thinking about who I was about to meet. I had a sneaky suspicion that it would be either Caspar or Kristen.
6:00. No-one here yet. I'm so cold and it's starting to rain now. I should have bought a coat or an umbrella.
6:05. Still nobody. I'm starting to think this is a wind up, or a joke. I'm not really sure what's going on to be honest.
I hear a rustling in the bushes behind the astro. It must just be a rabbit or a squirrel, but I can't be sure. Then, I see something shiny, that looked like a... No, it couldn't be. It looked like the keys to a van; my Dads van, with the tacky old handmade 'best daddy ever' key ring on it. My dad couldn't of sent me the message, and I don't know anyone that could drive.
Except Dan.

"Robyn! You came! Sorry about the delay, I kind of... Well, never mind. Anyway..."
"Yes? Why did you want to see me here? Why not at your house?"
"Umm... I wanted to ask you..."
Oh gosh. Was he... Was he going to ask me out?
"...would you like to come round mine tomorrow for dinner? It's valentines day, and I thought since neither of us have a date we could go as friends? It would be amazing."
I think he might of seen my face fall, but be couldn't know. He couldn't know that I had a massive crush on him. No way.
"What's wrong? Do you not want to? I thought you would, I thought we were best friends Robyn."
Dan walked off, and I just stood there with my mouth open.
"Your Dad even leant me his van to take you home."
I watched as he walked off, my best friend-my ex best friend, walk away, and possibly out of my life. Maybe he wasn't the one either. Maybe I wasn't meant to have a soulmate.
