Hmm good question. I think it must have been around autumn before the remnant business (we don't talk about remnants) It was raining hard and I was on my bike and then suddenly my tire blew and I went into the curb, ripping apart my trousers and cutting my leg badly. No-one was around and I had broken my phone in the fall and only after this did I realise how close I was to Ghastly's, so I hobbled to his workshop with rain and blood washing over me and shivering like a leaf. I knocked on his door and waited a while, turning as I thought he might not be in and then the door opened and he was there with this jacket of his shoulder. He saw my leg and went white, taking me inside and sitting me down by the fire getting out the medical kit and working on cleaning up the wound. And then we started talking I suppose, it was just me and him by the fire and he had given me this blanket and a cup of tea and he was just so handsome by the firelight.. I dunno... I just pictured him, differently to how I had done before.. He was like this angel.
So yeah... I've kept that punctured tyre, silly really but... I suppose without it I would never have fallen in love.
Maybe, maybe not... :)
