I used to stay awake at night and think about what I might say to him. What could I possibly say to the man who saved my life? Being a teenager was hard for me especially. I used to look around and compare myself with everyone around me. They were more intelligent than me, skinnier than me. But his music, his soothing voice was the key to the void I felt in my heart. When I felt like nobody cared. He made me feel beautiful, like I was worth something. And here he was, standing in front of me with that same smile I swooned over all those years ago. Except now it was real. He looked around nervously as I realized I hadn't answered his request, just stared wide eyed. Clearing my throat, I blurted out, "Is it really you?" He let out his soft, carefree chuckle as he swung his guitar around his shoulder and put out his hand. "It's really nice to see you again", he said in his strikingly beautiful English accent. As I shook his hand, I became aware of what he had just said. Again? Had he seen me before?
