that smile on his face. He walked slowly towards the car me following behind him. “You landed here early” he continued saying. At first I thought he was talking to himself since I couldn't see anyone there but then when I got out of my confusion and looked closely there was some movement in the crashed car. The door opened out wide being half broken and a guy came out in such slow motion. He looked up at Lionel with a cheeky smile and grabbed onto him giving him such a massive hug like if they were long lost brothers who had just reunited. There it stood. The person who stole my peaceful moment, who dramatically entered into my life through a small car crash that I was still a little bedazzled about. Lionel interestingly talked to the person as I stood there behind him hardly being noticed as I observed the person.

He was a little taller than Lionel, an inch or two. He had spiked up his hair and got a stylish trim on his sides. His skin being so pale clashed with his light blue eyes. His voice tone was sort of decent, not too deep nor too low. He stood there wearing jeans with a purple colour vest and a half-black half-grey colour hoody around his waist.

“And how did you manage to give such a dramatic entrance at our accommodation?” Lionel’s voice started fading in as I started concentrating on what they were talking about.
“Don't even ask” he replied in a cheeky tone.
“Don't make me ask again fool.” Lionel expressed back to him.
“Ok fine, well I got here early as you can see. My meeting was cancelled so I decided to give you a surprise.”
“Big surprise that would be mate.”
“Yes, big surprise. So I landed here and I really didn't want to come by taxi so I brought a car. Cheap deal really, shouldn't have listened to that Spanish boy. You really can’t trust these kinds!
“If you say so buddy.”
“I missed you a lot buddy.” The guy said sounding a little emotional.
“I missed you too” Lionel replied with half a chuckle.

Standing there for about twenty minutes sharp now the two boys paused from their conversation and the person’s eyes met mine. Not being able to have a long contact I lost the eye connection and looked to Lionel as he noticed me standing there.

“Hello there” he called out to me. Lionel looked at me and brought me forward holding onto me.
“Oh my bad, this is Lilly. Well her actual name is Lillian but we all call her Lilly. I met her on the plane and now we’re good friends.” Lionel quickly introduced me to a stranger who I really didn't want to know about.
“Ah, Lillian and Lio’s friend ok.” He summed up what Lionel had just told him as he glared deeply at me. It felt uncomfortable in the moment as I grabbed onto Lionel's arm.
“Lilly, this is my best friend. Remember I told you about him, Logan. He just arrived too early.” Lionel introduced me to him as I was trying to think back to when Lionel told me about him. I nodded and stood there with my arm within Lionel's as Logan still had his eyes on me.

“What do you plan on doing with this car now?” Lionel asked knowing the answer will be nothing.
“Nothing, just leave it. I’m sure someone will come running after it Lio.” Logan replied satisfying Lionel's already known answer.
“Lionel, I'm going to go and find the rest now. You spend time with your friend.” I said to him as I tried to get out of their ways.
“Are you sure Lilly? Do you want me to drop you?” Lionel asked caringly.
“Hey Lilly, don’t go. I just met you; maybe we could get a coffee or something.” Logan suggested.
“I don’t drink hot drinks unless it includes chocolate in it.” I replied sounding very stern I guess.
“Ah, a choco girl” he replied smiling. I left them alone and walked off as I could hear them laughing loudly. I looked back once as the pair of them were taking Logan's luggage out of the car boot and continued walking. Just before I turned to walk out of the area I looked back again as I saw Logan looking back to me whilst me looking back to him. There was something about this person. He seemed risky, he seemed outgoing, he may seem a bit fun but he really seemed dangerous. There was something in the way he looked, like if he was observing. Like if he wanted to open out something.

Just when I was about to turn I saw the two of them running behind me having such horrified expressions. I wondered why they were running as I noticed everyone behind them running as well. I ran back to them to ask what happened. As I reached to Lionel he grabbed onto me and made me run back with him. I ran in confusion thinking when to ask him why everyone were running. As we stooped against the hard brick wall a big explosion appeared right behind me as I turned to see the flames high up in the air.

“Don’t trust Spanish car sellers you say?” Lionel managed to take out saying it to Logan as he tried to catch his breath.
“I told you Lio, I’m warning you.” Logan spoke out trying to catch his breath too. They answered my question before I could even ask. It was Logan’s car that had exploded, obviously it had to eventually since the front of the car was busted. What played around my mind was how did it take so long for the car to actually explode. We were standing there for about twenty to fifteen minutes. I was glad we were far away from it though. I was glad no one was harmed. The only thing that was actually harmed was the hotel dust bins, the side walls of the hotel car park, a few of the ground floor windows and some other things, it wasn’t very vivid. Thankfully the hotel itself wasn't damaged, but I knew they were a lot payments Logan would have to pay.

“That sounded like an eventful time!” Faith calls out sound half-sarcastic and giggling.
“Sure, why not” I mumble out.
“Logan, why weren’t you into him? Why did you have a sort of distance?”
“I don’t really know myself. It seemed safer like that.”
“Well your sessions over. Wow the two hours went so fast.”
“The speed was pretty decent to me.”
“How much more is there to the story.”
“Ah, there's some time Mrs Lockwood.”
“Ok, well I will see you tomorrow again. Please don’t be late like today.”
“Ah, sorry about that. I just had a little distraction on the way.”
“What sort of distraction Lilly?” Faith asks me inquisitively.

I look up at her trying to get rid of that seriousness as I manage to take out of me “Traffic Faith.” I start laughing as the seriousness on her face starts to vanish and I walk out of her office. Walking pass the passageway and out of the building giving a small wink to the grumpy receptionist on my way out. Chapter Five


You’re hard to get away from trust me on that. You’re always in my head no matter what. I don’t know why its you that’s there. Seems like your haunting me everywhere. When it gets dark you shine the light. Reminding me of the things that haven’t happened right. There is no conclusion to the mystery. You always give me a thought of my history.

“May I come in dear Faith?” I knock on Faith’s door asking her.
“Lilly, you’re on time today. That’s something new.” Faith responds back in happiness.
“Oh, that’s not the only thing new. There are a lot of new things Faith.”
“Really, such as?”
“When time comes you’ll find out Faith.” I speak out and go and sit on the chair.
“I started looking through your story I’m sort of confused about something.” Faith establishes.
“And what may that be?”
“Lionel and Logan they have some sort of like love towards you? Sherry came one night. He didn’t come back again?”
“Ah Sherry, maybe we should get straight into the story to get rid of that confusion.” I recommend and start from where I stopped yesterday. Faith nods and lets me continue.

A few days went passed and Lionel was still with us having fun obviously Logan tagging along too. Now Logan was fully introduced to everyone else and he fitted in pretty well with them but still I had this thing where I couldn’t be myself with him. It felt like he wanted something from me, he always looked at me in such a weird way. I was confused about him. Even Mass had a funny feeling about him. Being my best friend he was very protective about me. Imagine if I was his girlfriend, he wouldn’t even let anyone look at me. That’s how bad he was! But since Logan was Lionel’s best friend I guess I could accept him as a friend too.

“Guys guess what?” I rushed into Max and Mass’s room since Kat was there with them.
“Yes we know what you’re going to say and no we don’t want to go!” Max replied saying breaking down my excitement.
“Oh c'mon people, I want to have some fun!” I exploded out demanding.
“No Lilly, we don’t want to go to a beach party. We were thinking of going for evening sailing.” Kat took out.
“Evening sailing, that’s your big plan?” I said angrily.
“Yes and Lionel and Logan are coming with us!” Kat replied in happiness.
“Well you guess have fun! I’ll just go to the beach party myself.” I said to them whilst walking out of the room going to my room.

The afternoon went by so quickly as the evening started appearing. Everyone went to evening sailing whilst I stayed behind to get ready for the beach party. I knew I would be there alone but I had some sort of hope in me. A hope that I wished to come true. A wish for someone to be there. For someone to control me if I got too drunk. After getting ready grabbing onto my things I walked out in excitement and reaching the beach party. I could hear the beats of music from a far distance, which made me want to get there quicker. Reaching to my favourite place the bar I ordered a drink and took my first shot. A boy appears next to me holding a little glass in his hand as he came and sat on the stool next to mine.

“How did I know you’d be here?” Sherry said in a relief.
“I was hoping to meet you here.” I said back sounding more relieved than him.
“You’re alone again?”
“No, my friends have turned invisible.” I point to left and
