"Cassie. Have you seen this girl? Cassie. Cassie!"

It's had been two months since Sid left for New York, but with no luck did he find what he was looking for. Cassie his girlfriend from back home had left without saying goodbye. He didn't blame her; it was a hard time for all of them. Chris, a good friend of Sid's had died from a family illness, leaving his girlfriend alone, and pregnant, Cassie couldn't handle the loss and left. You see Cassie had been through a lot, she had been institutionalized for not eating and when she came home she was sent to live in Scotland, when she got back her boyfriend was already with another girl, her best friend Michelle. Chris' death was the icing on the cake.

"FUCK why can't I find you" Sid had lost all hope he had no one to lean on and he was running out of money.

6 months later …

"Sid, Sid, stop acting like a prick and get up you wanker". Tony, Sid's best friend, had enough of his moping around; it had been five months since Sid ran out of money and had to fly back to Bristol. According to Tony it was about time he started putting his life back together.

"Leave me alone Tony" Sid called out beneath his sheets.

"NO, you know why because I fucking love you, you twat, and I'm not gonna let you sulk the rest of your miserable life."

"Well that's bloody caring ain't ir"

After finally getting Sid up and dressed, it was time to go and see Michelle, Tony's girlfriend. They both had time off from University so they both set out to help Sid find a new girl. Obviously they had their work cut out for them.

"Hey babe" the brunette called from the park bench.

"Hey, what time did you get here?" Tony asked as they hadn't seen each other since last month.

"About an hour ago"

Michelle walked up to Tony, wrapped her arms around him and kissed him very hard for a long time, awkwardly Sid just stood there like he usually did. After a while they stopped as if only then they noticed Sid there.

"Ow hey Sid"

"Michelle, hows Jal"

"She's getting better"

Silence broke out between the three friends. They did not like to talk about Jal, her boyfriend Chris died 8 months ago leaving her alone and pregnant. Although she had an abortion and left mentally scarred by the whole ordeal, Jal still left for the University that specializes in Music. All of her friends knew that it was a touchy subject as the wounds of what happened were still there.

Moments later Tony broke the silence with a fake chipper attitude.

"So let's get this tool laid, funny isn't it?"

Sid found this question confusing, what did he mean? "What's funny?"

"Well that we were doing the exact same thing two years ago, no one wanted you then let's hope we have better luck now".

This was a blow to Sid as his words reminded him of Cassie. Michelle understood what Sid was feeling.

"Tony!"

Tony fell silent as he had realized what he had said.

"Someone did want me but my life is shit, absolute bollocks so no wonder it didn't work out. I bet she's out there fucking some American muscle man who directs films and spends his holidays in Dubai".

"What the fuck Sid, Dubai? I mean come on if you had money to go anywhere it would obviously be Greece".

Blatantly Tony's joke did not amuse Sid out of his slump.

"Whatever you fucker, cheer up, come on let's get you laid, and this time no dope."
