I can remember the final memory plain as day. And that memory made all the memories come flushing back into my brain.

My kind hunted his kind, which was probably, heh; actually it was the reason that I had to leave him. It broke my heart, and I'm one hundred and ten percent sure that it broke his too.

That's more than likely the reason that he came back for me, now, let me show you the memory I am thinking of.

-Flashback-

Griffin entered the hallway to my apartment, by walking. I was talking to one of my new neighbors, well, new guy neighbor. I took one look at Griffin and held my breath as I asked my simple question.

"What are you doing here?" Griffin approached me. He looked to the side, then back at me, almost like he was debating with himself.

"I need to talk to you." It was so fast. And a blur. The new guy tried to protest, but Griffin interrupted him, and pleaded with me, again he said, "I need to talk to you."

I closed my eyes and ran a hand through my hair, a normal thing that I did while I was nervous, scared, upset, or really anything. The guy left before Griffin had a chance to punch him.

"Griff, can't you just leave me alone?" I used his nickname that I gave him, hoping that he would give in. He didn't. He was stubborn, like me, which was probably one of the things that I loved about him.

"Lilly…" Griffin trailed off.

"What do you want?" I asked, tears threatening to fall, but I blinked them away.

"I...I don't know, I love you... I needed to see you, talk to you, I don't know...I just..." I held my breath; he was going to make me cry. The truth is: I never cried before I met him.

"What?" I asked, the tears weren't really happening.

"Just…come with me." I couldn't come with him. He knew that. I blinked hard. Damn, those bloody tears.

"What?" I asked, disbelieved.

"Come with me." I shook my head, trying to make sure this was all real.

Sadly, it was.

"Where?" Anywhere in the world, we could go, but where could we go where the damn Paladins couldn't find us.

"I don't know! Anywhere! Just away from here." Griffin reasoned.

"Are you crazy?"

"Maybe! …Do it. Don't think about it." Griffin's voice started to sound like it was pleading.

"I can't do that! You know that just as well as I do..." I trailed off, and I opened the door into my apartment. And I closed the door.

Griffin jumped into the room. I gave out a small yelp; I forgot how he was a Jumper.

"You can't even do it; I know it's what you want."

"It's not what I want!" I lied. Griffin seemed a little taken aback, but continued with his pursuit.

"Lil' c'mon! I know you!" Griffin exclaimed.

I felt like crying now, "You don't know me!"

Griffin closed his eyes then opened them, "C'mon, we'll go to…New York. We can start a new life. You know it's what I want, and I know it's what you want too."

"No!"

"Look, Lilly, I want to be with you. Maybe not here, but some other place, we can start over somewhere new." Griff pleaded.

"There is nothing to start!" I threw my arms down.

"Look, you're ready you already have boxes packed," Griff gestured to my packed boxes on the ground, "It's perfect. I'm ready, you're ready…please…I need you."

"Griff, we can't…" I trailed off.

"Okay, I know that we're both supposed to be together. I knew that when I first seen you. And you know it too, I know you do."

"No, no, no, no…no." I kept my eyes closed without looking at him.

"Don't keep on saying no just to keep me from talking, or to make me leave. Only say no if you really don't want me to be with you." I still had my eyes closed, I felt a whoosh of air pass through my apartment, and I opened my eyes.

Griffin was gone.

That was the ending of our story, or so I thought, but now I need to tell you the story…our story.

And here we go…It's in the year 2009 on March, 24.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

I surfed the waves of Malibu, looking for a Jumper that had been committing new crimes. No sign of him anywhere. I sighed contently and went into shore.

I mumbled a few 'thank-you's for the way that I just surfed. It was by far the best in Malibu. I kept my head down as I walked, knowing that people would make a path for me to get through.

I collided with an object. And fell to the ground with a small 'oof'.

"Watch where you're bloody going!" The man shrieked.

"Oh, just shut the hell up!" the man seemed taken aback, and sighed.

"Sorry…" he mumbled.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah…" that was the first time I looked him over. He was wearing a black leather jacket, some blue jeans, a pair of black tennis shoes, and had a brown haircut that shagged a little. I smiled a little, "I'm Lilly."

"Griffin." I nodded. He sounded English.

"Well, there seems to be a mini bar over in the east…would you like to go over there?" I asked.

"But aren't you like…17?"

I smiled a bit, "Just turned 21."

"Have any alcohol yet?"

"Bit of brandy."

Griffin nodded and smiled.

"Ever played 21 questions?" he asked.

"Maybe once or twice…I'll go first."

Griffin nodded.

"Why are you in Malibu?"

"Traveling, okay, my turn..hmm…have you ever gotten drunk yet?"

I smiled, "First time having brandy."

Griffin nodded.

"If I called you 'Griff' would you make it my nickname that I gave you?"

"Depends..." Griffin trailed off.

"Depends on what?"

"If you give me your number." That was smooth.

I smiled, "Can I see your phone?"

"Sure." Griff handed me his phone. I entered my phone number, and let him enter his into my phone.

"This is going to be a wonderful friendship." I said.

Griff nodded and smiled, "A very excellent one indeed."
