Could he really be here? I thought to myself, all I could seem to to think about was those ocean blue eyes...Suddenly I was shoved so hard that I fell of the chair I was sitting on.  

"Kayla, Kayla? um earth to Kayla" 

I turned to see Josh smirking at me and everyone else laughing.

"WHAT!!!" I growled this made everyone stop. I got up and and sat back down on my chair.

"Are you ok Kay?, you havent touched you psl and we all know its your favourite " Sam asked me. 

"Yeah, I'm fine" I shrugged "I guess im just not that thirsty". Then there was me my friends and awkward silence.

"oooowwwww my ass" I cried breaking the silence this made everyone laugh again "It's not funny" I muttered. 

************************************************

"I'm going on my morning run" I shouted 

"Thats six days this week, why?" Joe commented coming down the stairs in his boxers. 

"Go get dressed" I shot back ignoring his question and rolling my eyes. I grabbed my earphones and slammed the door shut before he could reply.  

I couldn't really tell Joe that my coach had told me to lose some weight for nationals, it was so embarrassing. I was small but to be a gymnast you have to be extra extra small so I was training hard to get my body toner I was also using some apettite supplements but I knew my limit and I knew never to overdose.  I didn't take my usual route, today I decided to take a longer route and run past the beach. God I loved the beach. 

"Hey" 

My head spun round and my eyes widen, Dylan was running alongside me. I turned back and sprinted of as fast as I could my lungs burning and body aching in protest but I kept running I had to I couldn't face him not yet anyway.

"Kayla wait!" he said stepping in front of me I may have sprinted my best but I was obviously no match for him. Then it finally hit me he remembered, he remembered who I was and my name I looked up into his soft blue eyes, maybe he never forgot I thought, then it was my turn to remember he left it was him who didnt send so much as a text. I looked away anger taking over my body. He must have noticed because then he said

"I'm sorry" I'm sorry thats it I thought but he hadnt finished I let him carry on.   

"I'm sorry for moving without saying goodbye to you and for never contacting you I know it was a jerk move but I really have a lot to explain to you..."

My lips quivered but I wanted to know so badly I found myself saying " lets talk".

***************************************

"So you remember that night the last time I saw you?"

"Yeah" was all I could manage to say remembering the night coming back to me the sad memories toying with my emotions.

"Your dad came and took you home even though you were meant to stay the night".

" Not exactly" he said I raised my eyebrows curious. 

"My mom had been taken to the hospital, she had fainted. When we got to the hospital the doctors informed us that she had ... anorexia" then there was silence. "She had stopped eating to stay small for her job,  modelling."

"The doctors told us she was going to be fine if" he paused " If she went to rehab, my dad found a good rehab centre in London, so we got her registered and took the first plane out. I wanted to call you immediately I honestly did but somehow I had lost my phone" I was about to interrupt but the carried on "Obviously I knew your number so the I dialed it on the first phone that I saw. My dad found me and told me that it wasnt  a good idea and that I should leave that life behind and start fresh, in London. I must have cried for days but I had to look after my mother so I agreed with him but I regret it so much Kayla and I'm so sorry for being an idiot."
