"H-hero?" I don't even have to check to know it's him I could spot him from miles away but I have to be imagining this right now there is no way he is all the way here in Perth.

"Hi Jo." I had no idea I was crying until he steps forward wiping my tears away with his thumb, the minute I feel his skin on mine my body is on fire.

We are both stood staring into each other's eyes I'm still convinced I'm hallucinating until Mia clears her throat letting me know she'll give us some time and to meet her back at the house. How the hell is he here right now and more importantly why is he here, clearly Mia knew since he's here at the spot we walk to each night and sit for hours listening to the waves putting the world to rights. I have no idea when Mia left us but we are both still stood like a pair of idiots his thumb still caressing my face.

"W-what are you doing here H?"I whisper finally looking away from them piercing green eyes and staring at the floor.

"I had to see you, to talk to you I know we should have before you left but like always I was a dick and locked myself away. You blocked me from everything which I deserved I know but I had to talk to you and this was the only way." I honestly have no idea what to say I'm still in shock he's here in front of me in bloody Perth, what the hell...

"So you travelled across the world to talk?" I ask as I sit down looking ahead at the waves.

"Of course I did I would of walked if I had to Jo I need to make this right with us I miss you, I miss my best friend." He says sitting down next to me.

"I have no idea what to say right now." I say honestly.

"Look I honestly have no excuse or justification for what I did it was wrong and quite honestly the worst mistake of my life you are my best friend Jo and I happily let Casey come between us but... please don't take this the wrong way I'm glad she did because we never would have kissed and I wouldn't have realised that there is more between us. Ten years Jo ten years pretty much everyone around us have said there is definitely something more than friendship between us and we never seen it but pushing you away and not having you by my side all that time did have me questioning whether they were all right. It makes sense all those years being best friends cuddling, holding hands, all the sleepovers and looking back we literally acted like a couple just without the benefits. You probably won't believe me but you need to know that I was miserable without you in my life  I may not have acted like I was but it's true you were constantly on my mind thinking about what you were doing and shit but I was being stubborn wanting to see what being in a relationship was like and honestly it was complete shit, she wasn't you." he says grabbing my hands not taking his eyes off mine.

"Hero that kiss was a mis-" I don't even get to finish before he's cutting me off.

"No Jo it wasn't a mistake it was perfect you said so yourself in the letter how you felt something more, we both did. I came all the way here to let my best friend know how sorry I am and beg you to forgive me you're the most important person in my life Jo and knowing how much I hurt you kills me but I promise nothing like that will ever happen again I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you if I have too." What the hell does all of this mean?

"I don't want to be just your best friend anymore Jo..." did I say that out loud?

"So what do you want?" I ask looking at my feet until he puts his hand under my chin tilting it up to look at him.

"You... I want you Jo, all of you I want you to be mine I've lost you once and I can't do that again." He says knocking the wind right out of me.

"What if we do this and it doesn't work and ruins everything..." I ask him in a panic.
