"Hey. How are you feeling?" Dan asked as I entered the kitchen, pouring a glass of orange juice.
"Better. Thank you for last night - I shouldn't have pushed you away," I murmured. I grabbed the glass and began to drink.
"It's okay. All that matters is you've become better. Have some eggs and toast - Chris and Matt want to go out tonight." I nearly spat out my drink. Chris and Matt? I hadn't seen them since last year, and I missed them so much.
"Seriously?! I've missed them so much!" I cried, placing the glass down and wrapped may arms around Dan. He chuckled, hugging me.
"I know. It's insane having the whole group back together once more, and I think we're all excited," he smiled, releasing me. Butterflies fluttered in my stomach as he shot the smile. I finished my drink and grabbed a plate.
"So what time are we meeting up?" I questioned, sitting at the table. Dan sat across from me, his own plate of food sitting in front of him.
"Around eight, I think. We're thinking drinks at a club?" he suggested, eating some toast. I nodded, breaking the yolks of my eggs before beginning to cut.
"Sounds great." We continued to chat about what we were doing today, organising when we'll get ready and such.
"So I'll pick you up at three, we'll have some dinner and make our way to the club. Chris and Matt will meet us there," he confirmed as he pulled up to my work. I nodded, grabbing my ID out of my bag and throwing it over my neck.
"Awesome, I'll see you then," I said, opening the door. He kissed my cheek and exchanged goodbyes. I blushed as he drove away, turning towards the store and walking in. Kelly gave me a flirtatious grin as I made my way to the back room.
"I saw that sneaky kiss, Miss Dawson. You didn't expect that the fly under my radar, did you?" she teased, walking around the counter.
"One, drop the Titanic jokes - you know I hate them, and two, Dan has been giving me kisses on the cheek for years - it ain't fresh news," I smirked, pushing opening the door. I placed my things away, adjusting my clothes before entering back into the store. Kelly was waiting at the counter, typing up something onto the computer.
"You're feisty this morning. You've got a new spark of some sort," she pointed out, facing me. I blushed slightly, tucking hair behind my ear.
"So I may or may not have developed a crush..." I admitted, making Kelly's eyes pop, a Cheshire Cat grin creeping onto her face.
"FINALLY!" she squealed, jumping up and hugging me tightly. It was moments like this I loved the most. They made me forget about Josh and everything going on, and I appreciated it so much. Even if others didn't realise how much it meant.

"CHRIS! MATT!" I shrieked, bolting up to them. I hugged them tightly, sighing softly. Dan joined the group hug, chuckling softly.
"Year of twenty-thirteen are back, am I right?" Matt joked as we broke our hug. "Speaking of which, how is everyone? What's happened in the last couple of months? Who's dated who? Who nearly got stabbed? I need the gossip on my best friends lives," he continued, leading us into the club. We got in quickly, due to Chris' connections to the bouncer, and grabbed a table in no time. We went over our lives.
Matt had became a music teacher, doing substitution in secondary schools but doing bass lessons on the side. Chris was studying medical at university. We briefly mentioned my sleep paralysis, but changed topic so I wasn't uncomfortable.
