Chapter 1

"It's so different at night," muttered Kelsi.

"So are you," whispered a voice.

Kelsi whipped round and saw Ryan.

"Excuse me?"

"Well, during the day with lots of people around. You're quite shy and reserved but out here now, you seem free." explained Ryan.

"Oh," said Kelsi, wiping her face.

It was then that Ryan noticed two things; Kelsi's phone was clutched in her hands and there were tear tracks marking her face. "Have you been crying?" asked Ryan.

"Hmm?" asked Kelsi, wiping her face again. "No."

"I think I know if someone's been crying Kels," said Ryan, stepping closer to her.

Kelsi shook her head.

"Wait, what are you doing here at this time?" asked Ryan.

"I don't want to talk about it," muttered Kelsi.

"Well, would you like to come inside?" asked Ryan.

Kelsi shook her head slowly with a smile. "It's quite nice out here."

"Yes it is, but it's also quite cold and you have goose bumps on your rather cold looking legs," stated Ryan.

"Oh god, I'd forgotten I was wearing shorts," muttered Kelsi, not knowing whether to be flattered or embarrassed that Ryan was looking at her legs.

"Would you like to come in or do you need a ride home?" asked Ryan.

"Well the answer to the second, would be no. As that would be quite pointless as I have just learned no one's in," sighed Kelsi.

"This leads to talking about why you're crying doesn't it?" asked Ryan.

Kelsi nodded.

"So inside?" asked Ryan.

Kelsi shook her head and turned back round. Ryan stood with her and noticed her shiver. Smiling he shrugged his jacket off his shoulders and draped it over hers.

"Thanks," whispered Kelsi, a small smile on her face.

They were out there for a few more minutes before Kelsi shivered again.

"Come on," whispered Ryan. "Let's get you inside. It's obvious that you're staying here tonight."

Not to Ryan's surprise the minute Kelsi entered his hotel room she burst into tears.
