I can't believe it's happening
Characters: Barty and Debi
Summary: Barty finds a sympathetic soul
Barty shoved the book back on its shelf in annoyance. He had come back to the Haven bookshop, but had been disappointed to find the young owner wasn't working that day. He had been left with the assistant who, unlike Padma, didn't know the shop like the back of her hand, and whose presence didn't soothe him like his young friend's had.
Without Padma to guide him about the shop, finding the books he needed had been frustrating. The assistant also hadn't let him into the back room, obviously wary of doing the wrong thing when Padma wasn't here. He had found a couple of new volumes, but on flicking through them they had not seemed to contain anything different from what he had already. Everything was saying that for him to be having memories of his life before the kiss, he had to have his soul. But that just wasn't possible! Was it?
He collapsed into a chair in defeat and gloomily ordered some tea from the assistant, who was giving him increasingly nervous glances. He ignored her and tried to organise his thoughts.
