As soon as I got home, I called Dylan. He was my best friend, my advisor and the person who got me out of all the sticky situations I had a knack for putting myself in.

The ride to the restaurant was silent. Which was to be expected. We were two strangers, and with how we met, it was normal that we didn’t have anything to say to each other.

But the idea has dropped itself in my mind and i knew it would be impossible for me to ignore it. So I decided to go through with it.
