         After that amazing weekend away from reality,I hadn't seen Edward or Luke or Hal or Chris not even Roger, I had reverted back to my normal life and though it did bother me sometimes I had successfully managed to push Edward out of my mind, I'd been able to do this because....1.I haven't seen him in two weeks  2. My sister shut up about him...now all she does is smile creepily..3. I had occupied myself completely with my patients and managed to snuff out any rememberences of him.  Although I still was pretty annoyed that he didn't even call, I'd decieded to move in with my life and convinced myself it was easy doing so. Part of me hoped he and I would never meet again so that I could never revert back to old ways but another part ,well.....

       I'd come back to my perfectly normal independent,practical and boring self..don't get me wrong, I loved my work as a nerve specialist and seeing patients everyday helped me stay distracted. That day I had been in the hospital for seventy two hours working non stop and I was feeling very claustrophobic, Martha ,the head nurse noticed, she bustled me out of the hospital claiming I was banished for the day. I liked the caring woman and took her offer gratefully. Still in my white coat I stepped out into the parking lot and breathed the fresh air.As I was passing a car a loud horn made me jump,the window rolled down and Edward sat inside "get in quick!"he exclaimed, without thinking about it I did as I was told "what the heck are you doing??" I hissed confusedly, he raised an eyebrow at me "its nice to see you too Jen" he said sarcastically , I smiled "how'd you know where I worked?" "Meg" he replied shortly.

"I've been coming back here at around this time for the past three days!" Edward exclaimed, I looked down "I've been working for the last three days" I answered ,he gaped at me then started the car and soon we were driving through the city.

      We stopped outside a bakery and he asked me if I wanted to go in, on seeing my nod we entered. We couldn't sit next to a window because a fan might see him so we sat a light corner a little away from the window. "Would you like some coffee?" he asked I shook my head and seeing his questioning glance I said"I've never drunk any sort of coffee or tea in my life and I don't really want to start," he laughed "Jen you are a mystery!" I grinned. I ordered a hot chocolate for myself and admired the interior of the shop. Victoria style ,old fashioned but strangely beautiful ,a real London shop. Edward and I sat opposite each other and talked about various things, I found out that the reason he couldn't call was because someone had leaked all the boys phone numbers to the media causing them to have to change it and toss their old connections. I have to admit I felt very relieved that the reason he didn't call was not because he wanted to get me out of his life and despite my better judgement I was happy that we met again.

      "So you work as a doctor huh?" I nodded,he seemed to consider it for a moment then looked at me, I realised I was still wearing my white coat and proceeded to quickly take it off, Edward continued to look at me and I ended up glaring at him to which he reacted by concentrating on his hot chocolate.  "Why won't we drive around for a bit? Since you've been working three days straight it'll help you relax." Edward said suddenly. All my instincts were telling me to politely refuse his offer and walk away,  we were not supposed to get close we were supposed to forget each other existed! my brain hissed at me but my heart apparently controlled my mouth..

      Ten minutes later I was back in his car , now a little fact about me is that I get easily car sick when its a non bumpy an air conditioned ride, so after just a few minutes I ended up with my head between my legs "something wrong?" Edward asked quickly "I'm sorry Ed but could we please open the windows?" I begged ,Ed quickly rolled down our windows and I immediately started feeling better "you okay?" I nodded "I'm so sorry ,I get car sick when he ride isn't bumpy or the windows aren't down," Ed started laughing "you really are unique! Most girls hate when the windows are down ,their hair gets messy. And bumpy rides make them puke," I smiles , most normal girls are like me but very few normal girls have ever stepped into this car! I voiced my thoughts and he grinned mischeviously.
