Jaeden's POV
• friday february 23rd 7:56am •
A text from Finn comes through my phone.

Finn;
hey bud
do u wanna meet up today?

Jaeden;
yeh, ofc
9:30 @ amour okay?

Finn;
it's a plan
see u then

"Hey Lils." I say.

"Yeah?" She smiles.

"I'm meeting up with Finn for an hour or so, just for a catch up." I say.

"Yeah, that's all good. Movies and junk food tonight?" She says.

"Is that even a question?" I say.

She laughs and nods.

I get up and go get ready.

I throw on a white top, black jeans and a destroyed denim jacket.

When I was walking downstairs something hit the back of my head.

My beanie.

"You forgot this!" Lilia yells.

I laugh and walk out of her house.

I go to my house to check if my mom was home.

She was.

I open my door and walk into my moms office.

"Hi Mom!" I say.

"Jaeden! Oh, I've missed you so much!" She says, getting up and hugging me.

"We'll catch up this afternoon. I'm going to go have breakfast with Finn." I smile.

"Okay. There's a package for you in your bedroom, by the way." She smiles.

I nod and walk up to my room.

I open the package and smile widely.

It was make-up tickets for 'Grease Live!' and a 'Pink Ladies' bomber jacket for Lilia.

I leave the stuff on my bed and walk out of my house.

I go to my car and drive into town.

"Hey Finnlard." I say, sitting down at a table in Amour.

"Hey!" He smiles.

"How was Montréal? And shooting the movie?" He says, looking at the menu.

"It was beautiful there. Filming was good, I've got a two week break." I say.

"Nice! How's Lilia?" He says.

I flinch at her name.

"Uh, She-she's good." I say.

"How do you guys deal with the distance? Surely it gets hard, relationships and all." He says.

"What? We're not even dating?" I laugh.

"But you like her, don't you?" He says, gesturing his hands.

"No! What on earth made you think that?" I say in denial.

"Come on Jaeden. Before you left you were so in love with her!" He exclaims.

"No, I wasn't!" I laugh.

I completely was.

I was completely in love with Lilia Buckingham, in more than a friend way.

"Hey stranger." I say, when Jaeden walks into my room.

"I have a present for you." He says smiling.

"You spoil me!" I say.

He hands me a pastel pink gift bag.

I look inside and pull out an envelope.

It read;

Dear Lilia,

This is my 'I'm sorry' present to you.

You deserve everything and more. You're the most wonderful, kind, beautiful and talented person I know and I can't imagine life without you.

I love you and our bond that we share. I want you to know I'm always here for you and you can count on me 24/7.

I love you with all of my heart and I am so thankful to have you in my life.

So anyway, let's have fun in New York.

Lots of love, Jae-Bae. Xoxo

I started crying as I read this.

I pullout a pink bomber jacket that had 'Pink Ladies' embroidered on the back.

There was also a DVD in there.

It was The Greatest Showman.

I open the case of the DVD and two tickets fall out.

'Grease Live!'.

"Oh my god. Thank you so, so much Jaeden." I say, wiping my tears off of my cheeks.

I stand up and hug him tightly.

I feel him smiling on my shoulder.

That fucking spark.
