It has been 3 hours of me searching for this damn guitar. I have asked dozens of people, scrambling to find it. I have even asked people if they have seen the girl, but no luck.

Now, I am sitting on a small bench under a tree full of moss, the suns rays getting caught and not glaring through. I stare and my hands and feel tears spill out. I am in Miami, by myself and lost to be honest. I have never been so far away from the boys and my family for such a long time. Even though it's only been a day, I feel like it has been an eternity since I came here. I close my eyes and lean my head back, not thinking just relaxing. That is until I hear beautiful music playing in the park... Wait a minute.

The tunes were oh so familiar...

My Guitar.

Running towards the music, I notice a beautiful girl sitting on a bench, strumming and singing.

My Guitar.

The girl is sitting a bench, a small crowd around her and a small hat for change. I notice her hat is filled with coins, so dollars. She sings a beautiful cover of Ed Sheerans "Sing". I smile to myself and let her play my guitar, her flawless voice filling up the park.

"Thank you all so much. It really means a lot." She says. Everyone claps and put a few more coins in her hat. I walk over to her and crouch down so that we were eye level.

"Hello." I whisper. Sher jerks her head and tenses.

"Who are you?" She asks, confused and surprised.

"I'm Luke... You are?"

"Jade."

"What are you doing here in this park playing..." I bite my tongue.

"Um because I can. I have been singing in this park for years." Her face looks tough, eyebrows furrowed and jaw slightly clenched. She was wearing white shorts and a white fringe bikini top. Her fair skin seemed to glow and her gorgeous hair turned a lighter shade. Her eyes though... They were goregous.

"Hello?!" She yells, waving her hand in my face.

"Oh... Oops sorry. Hey how did you find that guitar?" I ask as she begins walking away. I follow her and stand next to her, noticing the great height difference.

"I just found it at the airport. They said it has been just laying there for weeks, so I took it in. I also needed a new guitar sooo..." She smiles. Wow. I smile back and we continue walking towards what must be her house.

"Why are you following me?" Jade asks and turns around to face. I gulp and look down at my feet.

"Sorry... I'll see you around ok?" I say.

"Ok." She smiles and walks into her small house, my guitar in her hands. I sigh and run a hand through my hair. Walking back to the hotel, I realize something... I just let the girl who took my guitar get away.

No shit sherlock.

I sigh and walk into my room, plopping myself on the cozy bed.

Tomorrow is the day I shall retrieve it.

No chickening out.
