~Lydia~

"Allison! I thought I was the fashion obsessed friend?!" Lydia called out to Allison as she was growing impatient with her dark haired friend. The two had plans for a double date that Lydia had set up with one of the guys she'd met earlier that summer. Lydia had spent most of her summer helping Allison get over her break up ex-boyfriend, Isaac. He and Allison had been high school sweethearts, well at least Allison had thought so. About two weeks before graduation she found out that he had been cheating on her on and off for about six months. Allison was devastated for weeks. Lydia was sick of seeing her best friend mope around their apartment, so she started taking Allison out with her.

Today was the last Saturday before they started their fall semester. Unfortunately the only way they could enjoy their last free weekend would be if Allison was actually active in their activities. Lydia tapped her fingers impatiently on the back of the sofa before she finally heard Allison's bedroom door open. The brunette walked out in a pair of jeans, a graphic t-shirt and high top converse. Lydia's eyes widened and she shook her head.

"Allison, what the hell?!"

Allison sighed and began to speak, but Lydia held her hand up and stopped her before she made up some excuse on why she didn't want to go.

"We've been through this all summer. I've said it a million times. There's no way for you to get out of this. Now go change into something more appropriate for the occasion."

Allison rolled her eyes and turned back to her room as Lydia called after her.

"Don't make me come in there and dress you myself."

Lydia sat on the couch and pulled out her phone to text the guys informing them that they'll be a little late.

~Derek~

Tonight was a slow night at Derek's restaurant. It was strange, especially for it being Saturday. A handful of his staff had been out as well. This had pushed him into a waiter position. Not that he minded waiting, it allowed him to see the expressions on people's faces when they ate his food. It's usually a good way to put him into a good mood. Especially tonight, it would have been he and his ex-fiancé's wedding day. So waiting tables and cooking helped take his mind off of the latter event.

Derek peeked around his head out of the kitchen to see if he was needed. He spotted a group that had been seated in his section and the hostess walking in his direction. Fixing his chef coat, he walked out nodding at the hostess. As he reached the table he pulled out his pad and pen.

"Good evening. My name is Derek I'm-"

He began to speak, but trailed off as his eyes fell on a beautiful brunette that sat before him. The way her dark hair fell around her shoulders. She shared the same lonely look in her brown eyes that he'd held in his own. Even the smile on her face reminded him of the one he had after his break up. Everything about this girl brought his thoughts all to a stop.

"Hello," the other female snapped at him, "it's rude to stare you know?"

Derek quickly apologized before proceeding to take their orders. The rest of the night he couldn't help but think of the girl.

~Allison~

After dinner the guy that had been with Lydia dragged them to a park that was just around the corner from the restaurant. Allison wasn't having that great of a time. She had to admit, her best friend had great taste in men, but she wasn't really in the dating mood. Of course, Lydia wouldn't allow her to stay home.

Allison had spent her entire summer being dragged around the town with Lydia. If it wasn't a double date it was shopping. She hadn't gone out this much in high school, or even with Isaac. The brunette missed her ex-boyfriend. Even after what had happened he was her first love. They'd spent majority of their high school years together.

"What did I do wrong?" She said a loud.

"What do you mean?" Her date gave her a curious look.

"What? Oh… Nothing." Allison hadn't realized she'd been so wrapped in her thoughts. She muttered an apology and tucked her hair behind her ears before reaching into her purse for her phone. Her eyes widened when it wasn't there.

"Um… I have to go back to the restaurant."

Lydia turned to her with a quizzical look, "Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, I just left my phone I think."

"I'll go with you." Allison's date offered.

"No thanks. It's just around the corner. I'll be right back." Allison quickly walked off before anyone could object with her.

As she walked back to the restaurant her thoughts began to drift back to Isaac. It had been three months since their break-up, and Allison had moved passed the raging anger phase now she was in the phase where she wanted to talk it all out with him. Would they really be able to work things out? Did she really want him back? Or was she just so hurt that she was masking her real feelings?

Allison pulled herself from her thoughts just as she approached the restaurant. As she entered the hostess smiled brightly at her.

"Hello again. Can I help you with something?"

"I think I left my phone here by accident."

The hostess nodded, reaching down into the podium and pulled out a white Samsung S4.

"Thank you so much. Have a great night." Allison unlocked her phone, checking if she had any messages, as she walked out of the restaurant. Not paying much attention she ran right into someone, and dropped her phone. A hand reached down and caught her phone before it hit the ground. Allison looked from her phone to the person in preparation to apologize, but her words stopped in her throat as she realized who it was.
