Fear rose up inside you.

Jen: Who are you?!?!

???: If I told you that would take all the fun out of it, wouldn't it?

Jen: If you actually thought that you would show yourself.

You said, trying to hide the fear in your voice, which you were failing at.

???: True.

He stepped out from the tree to reveal himself.

???: Well hello, hello.

He looked so much like...Colby ? No, that can't be right. He had the same shape of eyes, just a little shorter than Colby, but taller than you. He also had black hair and lip piercing. His brown eyes were complimented with long eyelashes.

???: My name is Ash.

Jen: Jen.

You both shook hands.

Ash: Not to seem rude, but why are you here?

Jen: It's a long story you don't wanna hear.

Ash: I do.

Jen: How do I know I can trust you?

Ash: Well... There is the fact that I'm faster than you, stronger than you, and no one ever comes here. I could do anything to you, but I'm just simply asking a question.

Those words seem too familiar. Colby said almost the same thing on the road leading to your house.

Jen: Do you have a brother?

Ash: Yes.

Jen: Do I know him?

Ash: Probably not, he doesn't talk to many people especially after...

He stopped talking and you didn't think he would finish that sentence.

Ash: After a girl he had a huge crush on jumped off the bridge. He never really talked to many people after that. I come here in hopes I'll get the old him back.

Jen: I'm so sorry. How long ago was that?

Ash: Two years ago. Your turn.

Jen: I got into a argument with my boyfriend. I come here a lot actually.

Ash: You have boyfriend?! Remind me to apologize to him about the last ten minutes I've been fantasizing about you.

Again, he reminds you of Colby. You let out a small laugh.

Ash: Which school do you go to?

Jen: Ridgewood.

Ash: Me too, how come I've never seen you before then?
