"Hey, that's mine!"

     I turn around in the middle of taking my jacket off of the hanger. Andrew Pilkington is walking towards me. I know that it isn't his, but I still look down out of embarrassment, and I look at the name tag again.

     "Oh, my bad," he says, scratching his head as he takes another look at the jacket. I give a tight smile and I turn to leave, but he stops me, placing a hand on my shoulder. "What's your name?"

     "I'm sorry, I have to go - "

     "Nice to meet you, 'sorry'. I'm Andy. It was cool seeing you around," he says with a smirk. I don't understand what he means until he is already walking away.

     "It's Taylor!" I blurt out without realising. I place my hands to my mouth quickly to stop more words following.

     "I know," he calls back, and I turn to the jacket in case my stupid head and my stupid mouth decide to reply.
