I needed to talk to Willow. I knew they went to school together, or they went to a nearby school.

I didn’t even realize how hard I was staring, until I glanced up and met his eyes.

Shit.

My stomach flipped.

Don’t be weird.

I smiled.

Barely.

He didn’t return it.

Of course he fucking didn’t.

Then his brother noticed me.

His whole face lit up.

Well, here we go.

“Well, well, well.” he says as he approaches our group.

I crossed my arms as I look at his grin. He was really handsome.

“Sebastian!” Charlie says as he reaches over and pulls him in for a “bro hug”.

“Charlie.”

He turns to look down at me.

“Look who came back.”

“Surprised?” I asked.

“Little bit.”

“Why?”

He grins.

“Thought we may have scared you off last year.”

My eyes narrowed.

“Yeah, nice try.”

His grin widened.

“That so?”

“Yep. I’ve been through scarier.”

“Liar.”
