AJ's eyes continued scanning over the bar; there were all kinds of interesting people littering the place. No one person particularly looked the same, which was very rare in places like this, because most people just followed whatever trend was in. Here, it seemed like people had a mind of their own, and there was something quite refreshing about it. It meant that life in this city would be interesting, and interesting was something she needed.

The blonde caught a few glances sent her way from both males and females, and that brought a small smirk to her lips. She loved when people turned their attention to her, even if it was for just a second, it meant they noticed her and she thrived on that. Another small sip of her drink was taken as her own amber eyes scanned once again, and it was then she saw a dark-hair guy lean against the bar. Brows furrowed the slightest bit, he looked familiar and she couldn't quite place why. His own eyes lingered on her for a moment and she offered him a smile before her eyes widened when she realized why she knew that face.

"No fucking way."

The witch quickly finished her drink before sliding from atop the barstool, her legs quickly carrying her closer to the familiar man. It was Spencer, her brother's old best friend, and the man she had a huge crush on for most of her adolescent life. He never noticed her, not really, she was always the little sister, and he treated her as such. Her brother and he would often pick on her all in fun, but whenever someone would bully her at school they became her body guards. It was sweet of them, and it was also part of the reason why she had a crush on him for the longest time. That was the past though, this was the present, and she had to say hello.

"You don't call, you don't write. A girl will start to think you forgot about her when you don't make an effort."

Her voice gave out playfully and she grinned at him, hoping he would recognize her. She did look a lot different than she did when she was younger; it was the classic ugly duckling situation. Once she got to her senior year of high school, she was pretty unrecognizable. She no longer had braces, her acne had started clearing up in a big way, and she turned in her big nerd glasses for contacts. It also helped that puberty hit her in a big way, and almost overnight curves appeared, and she looked much more like a woman. This turned her from the sweet shy girl she was into a completely different specimen. She became bolder, she would put herself out there more and her social life seemed to bloom. AJ became that girl that everyone wanted to be friends with, she was both kind and beautiful, something quite rare in high school.

That wasn't her anymore though, but certain things did happen in college that changed her again into someone that people didn't recognize or want to be around. Her first semester of college she met one of the most interesting and sweet men that existed, and there was an instant connection. They became a couple and it lasted a couple years, even getting as far as him proposing to her. She was happier than she ever thought was possible, and then on their three year anniversary she wanted to surprise him. That was the biggest mistake she ever made, because she walked on him in bed with another woman. It broke her, and once again she became another person. That person is who she was today, and though heartbreak and betrayal put her there, she enjoyed her life more now than she thought was possible.

AJ wondered what Spencer would think when he realized who she was, because he was still just as attractive as he had always been. It made the witch curious, and she wondered if he would become the one to keep her company for the night. They were older now, so only time would tell.
