As soon as she arrived, she felt lost as she stepped off of the train. Everyone spoke in Swedish, making it impossible for her to understand anyone.

Surprisingly, she spotted the man she had been following very easily. He was talking to another man that had a Swedish accent and shirt spiked hair. He was dressed casually in a jacket and jeans.

"Hey Robin!" The first man hugged the spiked hair man.

"I'm glad you're finally able to come visit Sean." Robin smiled happily.

So his name's Sean, Signe mused. She immediately felt like a creepy stalker and considered leaving. She turned to walk away from the edge of the train platform, but ended up tripping over a crack in the ground and fell face first towards the tracks.

She screamed in surprise when she felt someone grab the back of her dress and pull her back up, saving her. She turned around to see that Sean was the person that had saved her.

"You okay?" Sean asked, his black pupils shining with concern as he hastily let go of her dress, realizing that he was still holding it in a death grip.

"Um, y-yeah." Signe stuttered, suddenly feeling extremely awkward and nervous. She had followed him here all the way from Denmark, but now that they were talking, Signe didn't know what to do.

"My name's Sean McLouglin." Sean introduced himself with a casual smile. She hoped he couldn't tell that she was blushing madly and that her palms were sweaty.

"Signe Hansen." She shyly smiled back.

"You're not from around here either." Sean observed with mild interest.

"I'm from Denmark." Signe informed him.

"I'm from Ireland." Sean shrugged, his white fringes hair flopping in front of his eyes.

"This your girlfriend?" The man named Robin interjected teasingly.

"No!" Signe and Sean exclaimed in unison.

"This is my douchebag friend Robin." Sean introduced him with a dramatic eye roll.

"Pretty sure you're the bigger douche." Robin smirked playfully.

"Boys boys you're both pretty." Signe blurted as she stepped in between them to stop them off from arguing more. They already sounded like an old married couple.

"You said your name is Signe, right?" Robin asked her.

"No, her name is Woosh." Sean spoke before Signe had a chance to open her mouth and reply.

"Woosh?" Signe repeated with a giggle.

"You're that online artist Wiishu, right?" Sean raised a questioning eyebrow.

"How did you know?" Signe gaped. She made art occasionally, but not very often as she used to.

"I saw your art on Tumblr." Sean shrugged nonchalantly.

"You staying here in Sweden?" Robin asked somewhat hopefully.

"I've been considering it." Signe admitted. She loved Robin's playful attitude and Sean's kindness towards her, even though she was a stranger he just saved.

"If so, maybe we could hang out together!" Sean suggested excitedly like a kid on Christmas suggesting that Santa should come over and play.

"I'll definitely consider it." Signe promised him.

"Here's my number so we can talk." Sean listed off his phone number and Signe scrambled to type it into her phone before she forgot.

"I'll be staying at this dork's house for the day." Sean jerked his thumb in Robin's direction. Robin promptly stuck his tongue out at him.

"See ya around!" Sean waved goodbye as the two friends left the station.

"I've gotten this far, I just need to relax." Signe whispered to herself before leaving the train station, taking a cab to a nearby hotel. As soon as she arrived, she suddenly felt exhausted. After she took off her shoes, she crawled into bed and immediately fell asleep.
