I pull up to my house that me and my brother and best friend live in, I sigh to myself I'm so over it. Doing the same thing every day I get up go to our business come home sleep get up do the same thing again. I miss her so much, it never seems to be enough time with her but now its been so long, and I'm losing interest in life anymore. I'm think maybe I should just go to our true home get away from it all for awhile. I know everyone is sensing my loss in anything now. Finally I get out of my car and head inside not expecting to see anyone I run into my best friend Patrick standing in the foyer waiting for me. I eye him suspiciously and say as I head up the stairs to my room.
"What do you want?"
He laughs always good natured knowing we are both in the same position. He tells me.
"You are going to the club with me tonight."
I sigh and shake my head "No I am not."
"Come I can see in your face you are giving up on life. You need to get out, live a little enjoy some life."
I shake my head as I make it to my room and start to change, knowing he isn't going to convince me to go. I will probably just drink and fall asleep again tonight. He comes into my room, I roll my eyes knowing he's not going to give up so easily tonight.
"I have no desire to go to a club and drink when I can drink at home nor dance with girls who do nothing for me."
Patrick sigh shaking his head and says the one thing that would get me to go. "She wouldn't want you to live like this a shell of a man you truly are."
Sighing knowing he's right she would be so mad at me knowing I am ready to give up on everything I used to enjoy. I finally say.
"Alright I will go let me shower and change first and we will go."

We park around the corner from the club, sighing I get out. Patrick pats me on the shoulder and says.
"Cheer up buddy you might actually have some fun tonight."
I highly doubt that but I know it will just kill his mood and he's seem very cheerful tonight. I just shake my head and nod to the bouncer as we walk up Patrick leans over and whispers something to him and the bouncer just shakes his head. Patrick just smiles and puts me on the back to move forward, as we all in the music is so loud I look at Patrick and ask.
"What was that all about?"
He smiles and say "Nothing. Let's head to the bar and get a drink."
We sit down on the only two stools left this place is packed i haven't been her in awhile buts its really booming now. To see my kind and humans mingle is interesting, no wonder Aiden and Patrick like this so much the get to flirt to their hearts content and never hurt anyone's feeling. I just don't have the time for that. Finally we order our drinks, as we are waiting I hear someone yell our names Patrick turns around and hugs her, I roll my eyes knowing my night just got worse there stands Alanah. She kept trying to gets me to date her but I have no interest she knows there's no point it will never go anywhere.
Patrick ask her with a fake smile on his face "How have you been? Haven't seen you in awhile."
"Oh you know me busy as always just got back into town." She replies "How are you Kieran?"
I have no intention of paying her any attention let alone making nice with her it just causes her to thing I will entertain the idea of dating her. I start to stare off at the dance floor then I feel a punch to my arm. I turn to Patrick.
"What the hell man?!"
As I look at him something behind Alanah catch my eye. Its her long auburn hair the most enchanting eyes a blue hazel. She's her it all I hear in my head, but apparently I said it out loud cause I hear Alanah say
"Whose here?" As Patrick says "I knew it!"
I ignore them as she eye turn to panic and she turns around and bolts, I get up and chase after her. I have to touch her I need to know her name. She goes out the back door then down the alley back out front by the time I get there I see no sigh of her I look every which way. She is just gone how is that possible there is no way. I walk back up to the club to get Patrick so we can go as I get to the door I look back at the building across the street I see a figure move into the shadows. I shake my head I must have been seeing things.

When we get home I jump out of the car so mad at Patrick I can't stand to look at him, why didn't he tell she was going to be there. As I storm in I see my brother Aiden jump up and rush over, he knows by the look on my face I'm furious.
Patrick grabs my shoulder and spins me around "Listen man I didn't know for sure it was her or not."
"Bull s**t" I yell at the same time Aiden says "So it is her, she's back."
I trun to him "You know too!" I strom off to my office not wanting to see either of them I'm so mad they didn't tell me.
Patrick and Aiden give me an hour to calm down. Then they both walk into my office I'm sitting behind my desk and look up at them as they come it.
Aiden speaks first "Listen we didn't know for sure if it was her or not."
I raise my eyebrows at them confused "How could you not know? Patrick said I knew it after I went running after her."
Patrick looks at me and shrugs "I we didn't know for sure but we were hoping. Listen we know you were giving up on life we could see it each day. Then we got a call from Andrew saying there was girl coming to the club regularly that looked similar to her description and we hoped it was her. Its what you needed so we decided to take you to see, if we didn't tell you then if it wasn't her you wouldn't be crushed.
Aiden jumps in "but if it was her we knew it would save you."
I lean back in my chair and sigh "How did I not know she was back. I don't understand." Aidan comes and grabs my shoulder and says.
"There is clearly more going on than we know about, but she's back."
I smile knowing she's near again I feel like myself again not so beaten down. I have to find out now and find out what is going on and how much she knows.
