"Can you give me a fresh start?" He asks taking my hand in his cold one. It's oddly comforting and Instead of feeling scared around him, I’m starting to feel safe like, when I'm with Jaxson. I push thoughts of Jaxson away, he wouldn’t want anything to do with me but this conversation reminds me of his compliment about my smile.

"Alright. Hi I'm Winter, I'm studying to be a vet and I have a weakness for any kind of fast food." I hold out my hand, he takes it and places a sweet kiss on my hand.

"I'm Wyatt, I'm working in my family business and my favourite food is a secret, but I might tell you one day." He jokes with a big grin and I can't help but smile back, wondering what the hell it is that he doesn't want to say. It's going to be something weird like liver, who actually eats that stuff?

Wyatt and I chat for a while about the weather and other things before the food arrives. Alex and Drake turn up just after, with Alex looking a little dishevelled with messy hair and she is straightening her clothes.

"Did you guys get lost?" I ask with a wink, Alex laughs not embarrassed at all about her appearance and Drake just slides into his seat ignoring everything other than his food.

"No, but I can tell you how many times I," she says before Drake kisses her, effectively shutting her up and making me chuckle.

We all eat our food, which is amazing and then we go to the bar to order a few drinks. There are a few sofas around the room to sit in, and Wyatt takes my free hand tugging me down on one right next to him. I can't help but feel his slightly cold leg pushed against mine or his hand resting lightly against my shoulder. His amazing smell surrounds me making me want to lean into him. Wyatt smells like fire, a bonfire on a cold autumn night that we used to have to get rid of leaves. I look up to see him staring down at me. I know I shouldn't, but my gaze goes to his perfect lips before wetting my own with my tongue. The spell I'm under is snapped when Alex starts talking from the other sofa, right in front of me. I didn’t even notice her sitting down; I really need to stop staring at Wyatt.

"I’m not feeling well, so Drake is taking me home. Can you take Winter home, Wyatt? Drake can drive my car." she says and winks at me when no one is looking.

Wyatt nods, and I want to kick her knowing she did this on purpose. Alex smirks at me, before kissing my cheek, and waving goodbye. Drake nods his goodbye and following Alex, who I'm sure is grinning ear to ear.
