Hunter pulled the car around, near missing an over flowing trashcan. Alice was practically in a fit of laughter at Hunters mistake. Sophia was walking in circles trying to fight off the enveloping cold, and I sat on the side of the curb; sullenly sorting through my memories. Muted voices playing through my mind.

Lucy, look at me.

What if I don't want to, Nicky!

Then I will just have to make you.

I was snapped back into reality when I felt a warm reassuring hand on my shoulder. Looking up I saw Hunter smiling down on me "you okay?" she asked, helping me to my feet. The others had already piled into the car.

"Is it me or is our ocean of informants drying up?" Hunter chuckled climbing into the driver's seat but she didn't answer knowing it was too delicate even if I did try to joke about it. Alice and Sophia were arguing in the back. "It's your turn to cook tonight" Alice moaned shrilly. "Alice I cooked the night before Hunter."

The only way to settle this before it drove me insane was to sort it out myself. I turned around to face them; they were both staring out their own windows watching the road go by. "How about we go get take away?" they both nodded still huffy, Hunter sighed from next to me "I'm going to have to pay, aren't I?" she moaned reaching for her wallet. I swatted her hand away, pulling mine out. "Don't worry I got it covered."

Hunter pulled into the Mc Donald's car park, and I jumped out cringing at the rush of cold are against my bare arms and face. Running across the lot I burst into the small, warm chain restaurant. I was greeted by the welcoming smell of burgers and deep fried chips. Standing in line I couldn't help but survey everyone in the vicinity. There was a small girl and her grandmother. A lonely man sitting by himself in the corner, and a girl not too much older than me at the counter.

I was just about to order our food when I felt a cold chill on the back of my neck. "Excuse me ma'am, do you mind if I cut in front of you I just need to change this bill, for some coins?" My heart dropped at the familiar cocky, drawl and I spun on my feet.

Before me stood Quinn Drake, completely oblivious to whom I was. "Uh" was the only coherent thing I could say. My mind was reeling. I'd gone from clueless to solving the mystery in a night. Finally my brain returned to me, and I managed to reign in the flood of emotions.

Turning on the charm I used my new looks to my advantage. "Um hi, sure. But do I know you?"

Quinn smirked, running a hand through his hair "Well, I'm sorry but I think I'd recognize a cutie like you." Man he was such a flirt, does he not remember his ex Hunter?

"Well do you want to get to know me then?" I was pretty good at this. Quinn chuckled pulling a pen from his pocket. Was he that sure of himself that he carried a pen in his pocket? He wrote his number on my hand told me to txt him then changed his money and left. Obviously he was.

Ordering our food, I jumped into the car a grin playing on my lips like a Cheshire Cat.
