“Okay… I have my eyes set on him.” I say through the little ear piece that Jarod had made me wear. To cover it up, I have my hair in a messy plait on my right side, where the ear piece is.

“What is he currently doing?” His voice rings in my right ear. I lean a little forward, his blonde fringe swept in the same spot as I remember from last time I saw him, that night in the ally.

Flashbacks crawl into my mind, haunting me as if it was just yesterday.

“You fucked up big time, Veronica.” He says through gritted teeth.

The moonlight outlines the shape of his tensed jawline and the shadows of his beautifully sculptured eyes. His fringe has been perfectly swept to his right side, but it’s matted with sweat and blood. His right hand curls into a tight fist.

“You’re the one that’s fucked up.” I spit into his face. Sweat beads form on his temple. He presses his lips harshly against mine, pushing me into the wall even harder. I place my hands on his muscled shoulders; using every inch of strength I had left in me to push him away. It didn’t work; I was too weak in the bone.

I get pulled into reality as I realise he is looking at me, waving his hand right in front of my face.

“Hey… are you okay?” His charming smile shines on his face. “W-what? O-oh… I’m fine… Thanks… Sorry about that… I was in another world.” He chuckles at my remark.

“You look familiar… Anyone sitting here?” He asks. I shake my head, “I-I get that a lot…” He grabs the seat, slides it out and places his bum on the seat.

“What’s your name, gorgeous?” I manage to blush; I glance at the table and then quickly back into his green orbs.

“V-Hannah Green…” I stutter.

Shit, I am messing this up so bad!!

“Breathe Veronica!” Jarod says in my ear.

“Vhannah Green?” His eyebrows furrow together.

“Hannah Green, sorry, what about you? What’s your name?” I ask too quickly.

I hope he doesn’t sense that I am literally shitting my pants!

“Seth, Seth FitzGerald”

“Well, it’s a pleasure to meet you Seth.” A small smile finds its way onto my face, “It was certainly a pleasure to meet you Hannah.” He gets out of his chair, and as he stands up, a small piece of paper falls onto the table from his hand.

“Uhh.. Seth, you dropped-“ “No I didn’t” he cuts off my sentence and walks away. I grasp the paper in the palm of my hand and look at it.

“Read it you dumb ass!” Jarod says in my ear. I jump, a little frightened. I kind of forgot that he was there, listening into the conversation.

“Shut up!” I hiss. I unfold the paper and read the scribbled words,

Call me?

-          Seth

“I only talk to him for what, five minutes and he gives me his number? What the hell is this? He must be desperate to get into some girls pants to cover up that he is gay.” I hear laughing in my ear.

“You’re going to have so much fun on this mission!” Jarod chuckles, I roll my eyes even though he can’t see me.

I grab my, to go coffee and start walking down the street.

It feels weird being in another country. Gone from Australia to America in a matter of days, it’s kind of crazy on how fast we can get to another country in just under three days.
