      "I'm going to be in Wales for a few days and then I'll be back in London. Did you come up with the date plans yet?" Taron yawned in her ear.

     "I don't know why you keep sticking me with the plans. I botched our second date so badly." Hayden clutched the phone between her head and her shoulder as she grabbed a blanket off the couch.

     "It wasn't that bad," Taron giggled.

     Hayden's heart picked up speed as she felt herself swooning. She'd been dating Taron for the past couple of months and things were going well, minus the fact that he had been gone for about half that time. She knew he traveled for business, but she had yet to ask him what he did.

     "So what are you and Liv doing tonight?" Taron's voice grew husky.

     "We're watching a movie," Hayden shifted on the couch, pulling the blanket tighter around her. "I think it's called The Kingsman." Taron grew silent and Hayden worried that she'd said something wrong, "Taron are you still there?"

     "Huh, what...yeah I'm still here. The Kingsman, eh, would that be the first one? Well of course it would be, the second one isn't even out yet." Taron babbled.

     "Ummm, I think it's the first one. That would make sense considering Liv mentioned wanting to see the one that will be in the cinema soon. Are you okay?" Hayden chewed on her thumb, nervous about his change in demeanor.

     "I'm fine love," His husky voice was back, "Look text me after you've finished watching, okay?"

     "Okay, but won't that be too late for you? You already sound like you're about ready to pass out."

     "That's just the jetlag talking. I'm in New York," Taron yawned again.

     "Oh, that's right," Hayden looked up as the front door to her apartment opened, Olivia pushing her way into the room. "Hey, Liv just walked in, I'll text you later, okay."

     "Tell her I said hello and that I'll be having a conversation with her later. Nothing to worry about love, you just have a good evening."

     Hayden said her goodbye's, pulling the phone away from her ear, "Taron says hi and that he'll be talking to you later. Is there something I should be made aware of?"

     Liv shook her head, "No, of course not. Now, did you make popcorn as I requested?"

"Oh shit, I forgot," Hayden jumped up from her spot, making her way into their tiny kitchen. "Do you want butter or more butter?"

     "Hell, give me the more butter baby and pop open that bottle of wine that we've been saving."

     "So, what is this movie about?" Hayden handed the bowl to Olivia, flopping down and making herself comfortable.

     "It has a kind of James Bond feel to it, a spy movie. I have a feeling that you'll rather quite enjoy it." Liv poured two glasses of wine, handing one to Hayden and taking a long sip from the one left in her hands.

     The movie started playing and within a matter of moments, Hayden found herself completely sucked in. She ranked Colin Firth as one of her favorite actors and she really quite enjoyed watching action flicks. A little more than 10 minutes into the film, the camera flashed to a close up of a pink pendant, but the part that shocked Hayden was when the picture zoomed out, showing the wearer of the necklace. Her breath caught in her throat. She had to be imagining all of this. That was it. She missed him and was hallucinating him into the things she was watching. She was so fixated on the face on the screen that she was unaware of the fact that her friend was watching her with intense curiosity.
