I was putting the books on the shelves, when a boy, probably a few years older than me, approached me.

"You work here, right?!" He asked me.

"Yeah, how can I help you?"

"I was looking for a romance book and maybe a date for tonight." He said flirting.

"I can help you with the book but not with the date. I have a boyfriend." I said softly.

"Of course, you have. Look at you! You are like angel that fell from the sky."

"Thanks, I guess..." I said uncomfortable with the situation.

"Well, here is my number. You will probably need it." He gave me a little paper and I looked at him confused. "Maybe you don't know your boyfriend so well as you think."

I frown my eyebrows at him.

"See you around, Dove." He said walking out of the bookshop.

I was still confused looking at the door, when Corbyn walked in.

"Hi, my love!" He said giving me a kiss on my lips and putting a sunflower between us.

"You and the sunflowers." I said taking the flower out of his hand.

"I love to see that smile on your face every time I give you one."

I smile at him and looked at the paper in my hand.

"What's that?" He asked me.

"A boy gave it to me."

"Why?"

"It was a weird conversation. First, he was flirting with me and then he gave me this paper with his number saying that maybe I didn't know you so well. Is there something you're not telling me?" I asked him worried.

"No, love. Don't worry."

I sighed but nodded.

"There was something I found strange. He knew my name."

"Silly, you've your name in your shirt." He said chuckling.

"Oh, you are right." I said giggling.

"Well, I think you don't need this." He said taking the paper out of my hands and I rolled my eyes at him.

"Let's talk about the reason why I came here." He said changing the topic.

"Ugh!"

"Dove, you know that you have to go."

"Do I have to? It's our anniversary."

"Yes, you have. You promised Jonah that we would be there to the final."

"But I didn't know it was going to be today."

"If you go, I'll take you somewhere after."

"Fine." I said giving up.

"Well, I have to go on a quick mission, so I will pick you up after."

"You are better be on time, because if you don't, I'll not go."

"Yes, ma'am."

He gave me goodbye kiss and left.

I looked down at the sunflower smiling.

"Good, you are here. We have to go." Daniel said when I walked in.

"Yeah, but first I need you to do something."

"What?" He asked confused.

"I need you to see who this number belongs to."

"Why?"

"Because that person is trying to tell the truth to Dove."

"What?! No! She is not ready yet."

"I know, that's why I need you to see to who that number belongs." I gave him the paper and he took the computer out of the bag.
