Chapter 1
She watched as he left the hotel and slipped into the waiting van. It hadn't been too hard to find him, they were connected now. She jumped from roof to roof, following the van as it made it's way down the street. She wished she didn't have to be here again, that she didn't have to see him again, but there was no choice. She remembered that day two years ago, it felt like yesterday though. She'd hoped to just get this over with, to end it quickly. That would all depend on him. She stopped as the van pulled to a stop in front of a 7-11 and saw him slip out. It was time. She jumped...

AJ walked into the 7-11 and grabbed a cup, filling it quickly with the frothy drink, he snapped the lid on and grabbed an oversized straw and poked it through the opening. He walked over and grabbed a handful of Cookies and Cream candy bars and a bag of chips and headed over to the register. He heard a few gasps and turned to find two young girls staring at him, their eyes widened when they saw him look at them. He winked and quickly paid the cashier, giving them a quick wave, and headed back out to the van. Things were different that's for sure.

Who would've thought? It'd been two years since that night. He never forgot her; she was never out of his thoughts. No matter how he tried to explain it to the rest of the guys, no one ever believed him. He was beginning to think the whole thing had never happened. Walking over to the van, he stopped. He didn't know why he did, but he felt something pulling him, pulling him away from the van. He turned, looking around. "AJ! Come on man, we've gotta get back to the hotel." Marcus called. He started back to the van; he had the strangest feeling that he was being followed. Shaking his head, he stepped into the van and they sped off.
