Cassidy's life was pretty boring if it hadn't been for her best friend who would sometimes drag her to a party or two, or take her to a bar for a drink after work, which had them ending up drunk and dancing... But still leave her feeling empty... Yet, Cassidy felt something was still missing in her life, she lacked something to spark her curiosity once more. When her landlord told her someone was going to move in next door, maybe she would live up to her nickname, "Curious Cassidy" once more.. Yet, the neighbor was everything she was not expecting... A brooding man hiding behind a hoodie, rarely seen, and if so he barely even notices her existence. She soon realizes he too loves hanging out on the roof late at night, like she always does... Why was he hiding in the dark? Even more, What was he hiding. Could Cassidy finally satisfy her curiosity, and could a miserable man with a tragic backstory finally find someone to heal his broken past..? And could he finally learn to trust enough to let her see his hidden identity? Could two sad and lonely figures in the night, on the rooftop of a building in the middle of busy London, finally find solace and peace in each other's company? Maybe forgiveness, and even love? *Song : Benson Boone - In The Stars* (A/N: I thought the Stranger in my story would be fit well if portrayed by Nick Robinson. So I will soon work on this idea and start writing. Stay tuned.)

INTRODUCTION: Missing person reports were just piling up one after another these days. But none of the victims were found alive. After the killer got what he wanted from victim's family, the next day person would be found dead. People are starting to move out from the city. It's gotten worse as hours passed. Phones are ringing at the police stations and 911 calls are getting more and more desperate. Not many things were found out about this town's killer. But, the way people are describing him- yes him- shows that they all see him as an old man called the Gentleman. He got this name from the way he puts his deceased victims bodies. Lying on their back, carefully placed, hair brushed and clean, face without any makeup, but covered with black veil, white nightie with small bouquet in their arms that are placed on their chest. Beautifully horrific sight if you ask me. They all appeared to be women in their early or mid 20s, brunettes with blue eyes, skinny and average height. The Gentleman is described as someone in his late 30s or early 40s, is into art, but mostly sculptures as he shows by placing his victims in recognizable positions. On most of dead women's necks could be seen small tattoos that were assotiated with life and death- butterfly with its wings painted like skull. That was all that we knew of the Gentleman until something happened few days ago...
