I feel so mean. But don't worry, guys, he's going to come back. One day. He will come back.

Enjoy! :)

Amy ran across the street as soon as the light turned green.

She ran along a sidewalk of restaurants. She scanned each as she passed along each one. There was still no sign of him. People were all giving her looks as she sped through them.

It was Christmas season. People are supposed to enjoy, not run around like you're being chased or something. But Amy didn't care she needed to find him. Once, he went missing but he won't do that again to any of them. He won't do that to her again. She was going to find him and she will.

As soon as she saw his room empty, rather, Dan's room, according to him, she immediately changed her clothes and went out to find him.

Ring! Ring!

She stopped walking and took out her phone from her pocket. She looked at the screen as it vibrated on her hand. It was Fiske. She pressed the button and lifted the phone to her ear.

"Hello? Fiske?"

"Amy! I just got to the base and I sent a few people to search for him too." Fiske said through the line.

"Thank you so much, Fiske." Amy huffed as she turned around, trying to look for any sign of him. "Where's Dan?"

"I told him to stay at home. Just in case, Ian goes back there. He doesn't have a key so..."

"Gah! I love you, Fiske!"

"Thank you, my dear."

"Bye, gotta go."

"Good luck."

As soon as she hung up, she continued to run again. Still no sign of him. She turned around a corner and found herself on the same street a while ago. She mentally cursed. Suddenly, she had an idea. Maybe he was there. Maybe, just maybe. She walked towards a bus stop. She impatiently tapped her heels as she waited for the bus to arrive.

She almost yelped when she saw the bus coming. She got on the bus and found a seat by the window. The bus started moving. Finally, Amy got a chance to rest for a bit. She rested her head on the window but still she didn't stop looking for him. She kept her eyes open as they move.

Before she even knew it, she already arrived at her destination. She got down of the bus and walked around the corner. She stopped as she felt a memory flash in her mind.

Suddenly, she saw a guys with a hood over his head. He waited at the corner full of students when the green signal turned red. She stepped closer to him, close enough to whisper in his ear.

"Who are you?" she asked in a low voice.

She stepped back a little, waiting for his reaction. He didn't turn around though she can see the way his body was more tensed. She waited for him to do something. Slowly, he turned around. He tilted his head down so that she still can't see his face.

"Amy Cahill."

She shivered as she heard her name escape his lips.

She felt his hands reach for hers. She quickly jerked them away.

"Don't touch me!"

He grumbled and slammed him arms on either sides of her head. Amy jumped a little at his sudden actions. He leaned close. Her heart hammered against her chest as she slowly saw the face of the man underneath. She gasped.

"Leo?"

"Amy..." He leaned closer to look into her eyes.

Amy tried to push him away. "Get off me!" But he caught her hands and pinned them above her.

She quickly snapped herself out of the image in her mind. Her face grew hot as she can't stop remembering what happened next. She can still feel his body on hers as she... She shook her head. What's happening to her? She pinched her arm to stop herself from going back there. She quickly walked out of that spot and headed for the gates.

She nodded to the guard with a smile as she entered her old school. It feels good to be back. She remembered her old friends. Suddenly, the football field came into her view as she walked.

"Look who we have here!" said the voice.

Amy froze momentarily as she heard the voice. She spun around.

"What do you want, Paige?" asked Amy.

Paige slowly took a step towards her. "IMPOSSIBLE!He WOULD NOT go out with a girl like you!"

"Why don't you go ask him, then?" Amy also took a step forward, taunting her to go on.

"You're NOBODY! WHY WOULD HE CHOOSE YOU!?"

Amy smirked while she entered the building. She knows it's bad but it really felt good to make Paige angry and pissed. She chuckled as she remembered Paige's face during the soda incident.

But her mind drifted back to what she should be doing and that was looking for him. She slowly climbed the stairs. Her heart beat faster with each step she took. Anticipation filled her heart as she rose up the stairs. When she reached the door, she breathed deeply. She wished he was sitting there, waiting. She wished that he wasn't leaving them. Leaving her.

In her head, she placed her hand on the knob and counted to three.

One.

Two.

Three.

She opened the door. Wind blew across her face. She shielded her eyes as the sun shone brightly in the sky. She closed the door behind her and walked across the rooftop. She opened her eyes and hoped but there was nothing. Disappointment washed over her. No. No. Why? Tears fell down her cheeks. Why am I crying?

Tears kept on falling but she couldn't understand why she's crying. She couldn't control it. She stood there letting it all out though she doesn't know what she needs to let go of. She can't feel anything. Her mind was blank. Her senses were clouded yet she can't feel it.

Suddenly, everything returned as she slowly recovered from her trance. She blinked and tried to get her mind straight. She glanced at her watch. 2:00. She looked at the view below her as she tried to think. Then suddenly she realized what time it was, for real. 2:00? Wow! I stayed that long?Then her stomach grumbled. And apparently, I missed lunch.

She sat alone while she finished her burger. She wasn't that hungry so just a burger was enough. She was too busy trying to figure out where he was. Where is he? Why didn't he bother to leave a note? Or maybe a call? Anything.

She stood up and crumpled the wrapper of the burger. She already looked everywhere. He was nowhere to be found and there was no place left. She can't think of any place where he could be anymore. As she was walking towards the trash bin, she couldn't help but overhear a conversation of a kid with his mom.

"Please, Mom! Can I play with my friends at the playground?" the boy asked.

"No, we need to go home." his mom said.

"Please, Mom! Please!" the boy asked with puppy dog eyes.

Amy smirked as she saw the mom hesitate.

The mom gave in. "Fine. But only 30 minutes, okay?"

"Yey!" the boy jumped up and down in joy.

Amy shook her head as she threw the wrapper in the bin. No one can really resist the power of the puppy dog eyes especially if it comes from a little boy. As she was walking out of the store, she suddenly stopped when she saw the boy and his mom walking out of the restaurant.

Her eyes widened. He might be there. He might be.

She ran across the park, keeping an eye for any signs of him. Still nothing but the park was a big place. She wasn't going to give up that easily. Time passed, people started to leave the park but she still haven't found him. She found a bench to sit on. She breathed a sigh as she sat down. She spent all afternoon running across the park and she still haven't found him.

She inhaled and exhaled deeply while she tried to regain her strength. She wiped the sweat on her forehead then rested her head on her hands. It was getting late. He was still nowhere to be found. She might as well get back home and continue tomorrow. She stood up and walked slowly towards the exit.

She stopped suddenly when she saw something very familiar to her. She frowned. Standing a few meters away from her is a tree. A tree seemed familiar to her. She wanted to laugh at herself. All these running must have affected her mind as well. Suddenly, she saw something shift behind it.

Her eyes widened. She saw a silhouette of someone sitting on the ground. Someone she knew. As if sensing her, she saw the silhouette pat the grass beside it. She frowned. She was so far yet he sensed her. Her mind drifted back to him as she saw the figure turn to look at her.

Slap!

"Ouch!" Ian exclaimed as he cupped his now red cheek. "What did I do again?"

"Bastard! I looked all over the city just to look for you!" Amy scolded him.

"I was just here!" Ian argued.

"You didn't even leave a note or something!"

"Yes, I did."

"Really?"

"Yes! I left it on the table!"

"Well, I didn't see it!"

"Did you check the room?"

Before Amy could open her mouth, she stopped herself. He was right. Did she enter his room? Actually, she didn't. She mentally punched herself. So stupid! So stupid! But if he did leave a note, why didn't Fiske or Dan notice that while she was gone?

She checked her phone. She was shocked by the number of missed calls and messages she received. All from Dan and Fiske saying that Ian did leave a note. She groaned. She wasted all this time and energy looking for him and here he was sitting on the grass, relaxing. Suddenly, her phone vibrated in her hand. It was Fiske.

"Amy? You alright?" Fiske asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Amy answered.

"Received my texts?"

"Yes, I did. Just when I found him."

"You found him?"

"Yes, I did."

"Perfect! Come here to the base."

"Okay."

She hung up and looked at Ian who was staring back at her. She blushed at the intensity of his gaze. She quickly looked away and started to walk towards the exit.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

"Follow me." she simply said without looking back at him.

"Where are we going?" he asked again.

"Follow me if you want to know." she shouted with the big distance between them.

She smiled when she felt him follow close behind her.

Déjà vu.

See? Told you he will come back ;)
