They wanted to dance, but they didn't lke the music, so Hannah went to speak tothe DI. This music is awful. she said, ‘Could you play something else?" The DI looked at her and said, "Don't worry, Lhave the perfect song for you" 1 Two minutes later he said, ‘The next song is by Scouting For Girls. It's called Blue As Your Eyes and it's for a beautiful girl who's dancing over there’ Hannah knew that the song was for her. 2 Hannah and her friends left the club, the Dd was waiting for her at the door. "Hi, T'm Jamie; he said to Hannah. Can I see you again?’ So Hannah gave him her phone number. 2 Jamie phoned Hannah and invited her to inner. He took her toa very romantic French restaurant ‘and they talked all evening. though the food wasn't very {g00d, they had a wonderful time. + Jamie and Hannah saw each other every day. Every evening when Hannah finished work they met at 5.30 ina coffee bar in the high street. They were madly in love, 5 Hannah was at work. As usual she was going tomeet Jamie at 5.50. It was dark and it was raining, She looked at her watch. Itwas 5.20! She was going to be late! She ran to her car and got in. At 5.25 she was driving along the high street ‘She was going very fast because she was in a hurry. « ‘a man ran across the road. He was wearing ‘a dark coat, So Hannah did't see him at first.
