Hey guys, sorry for the long wait on the update. I was out of town, hopefully it wont take that long again. Thanks to all the great reviews! You guys rock :)

I was stunned, completely and utterly stunned. It was like the world was turned upside down, It felt as if for a moment my heart stopped.

Sure, I've made eyes at attractive strangers, but nothing like this. No one like him. I was terrified and thrilled all at once.
I suddenly realized someone was talking to me, the guy who runs the ride was trying to get mt attention, the ride had stopped and everyone had already gotten off, I was a little embarrassed, I hurried off the ride. I took one last glance at the carousel. No sign of him or his friends. I shook my head and started walking down the boardwalk. I had no idea where I was, or if I was going. Though I didn't want to completely admit it, I knew I was looking for any sign of the beautiful blonde stranger, or his friends.
I don't know exactly how long I had been wondering around, it must have been awhile, the music, lights and people started blurring together, I saw a couple benches by the edge of the peir, you could see the ocean. It was absolutely beautiful, the moon hung low in the sky, and you could see stars poking out beneath the clouds, I sat down I had to get my thoughts together.

I felt like a silly little girl, chasing blindly after a guy I hadn't even muttered a word to. Granted that split second eye contact was in the running for the most intense eye contact in the world between two strangers. But he was gone, and I probably would never lay eyes on him again. It's like they disappeared into thin air, it almost felt like the whole thing never happened. I had to try and put it out of my mind, forget it. I was probably just reading into it anyways, I highly doubt he even had a second though about me, and is off with some other girl by now. That thought sent an unexpected twist in my heart. I tried to shake it off, I sit there looking out at the water for what seems like ages, trying my hardest to think about different things. Even if his face was always close behind every thought.
I took a deep breath, and a last look at the water. I think I found my favorite spot on the boardwalk. I picked myself up and headed in the way I was pretty sure the bar Lydia worked at was.

I only got a little bit lost, the boardwalk is a lot bigger than I had expected. But I eventually found it. I was nice, nothing fancy or even special, it had a big neon sign, and multicolored lights inside the windows. I walked inside, it wasn't very big, it had a few tables, in the right hand corner was a tiny stage, Lydia mentioned they have the weekly Karaoke night, and some nights old guys, with old dreams of a life of music take their cherished guitars will take the small stage and play a few songs for the night.
People watching helped a bit to get my mind off him, the bar was a little smokey and had people huddled in all corners, drowning their sorrows in their drinks, I guess whatever helps you get through the days, you could still the busy street of the boardwalk through the window, and I will begrudgingly admit every time I thought I saw either colorful or leather jacket my heart jumped, and every time I mentally scolded myself, I really needed to get a grip and quick.

It seemed like no time at all, when Lydia came up behind me, her purse in hand.
"Ready to go kiddo?" It wasn't midnight yet. "You're off already?" I said looking pointedly at the clock on wall. "Yeah, it's not to busy. They knew you just got into town so they were saints and let me off a little early" she threw a smile back at the other bartender a middle aged guy, who had a cheesy mustache. "

You ready to go? or did you want to look around the area some more? It's still early" She looked hopeful. I was so mentally frazzled, I figured a good night of sleep and I'd forget him and be okay.
"I'm really tired, you know after the drive and unpacking.." Her smile dropped slightly,

I knew she was worrying about me, that's what Lyida does, no worries on her life but can't stop worrying about everyone around her.
"Plus, I don't want to see everything the first night. We need girls nights to fully explore. Plus you don't want to walk around smelling like that after work" I give her a loving shove. She just laughed "Well thanks, love you too sweetie" she laughed at me. Signs of worry were gone for now.

The ride home was mostly her telling venting about people at work, I decided not to tell her about the mystery boy. It would help in my forgetting him. God knows if I told her I'd never hear the end of it, and how I should get out there and start again. How it would be good for me as she so blatantly put it last time "Get some of that good lovin'. "
Getting to sleep wasn't easy, no matter how hard I tried my mind was flooded with him. I knew I wasn't going to forget him that easily, and for some unknown reason he had this total hold over me. Even at long last when I fell asleep, all I could see were those beautiful blue-green eyes.

I knew in my gut, this wasn't the end. Even if I didn't know if I'd ever seen him again. This was the beginning of something like I've never dealt with before.
