I Can't Let You Go

Filming

It was late at night in London. Kit was in the streets with the other cast of his new movie, and they were working. It was cold outside but at least he did not have to spend his night alone in his flat. He did not see her for days... for weeks at that moment, and he missed her. No matter how many messages they sent to each other, no matter how many times they called each other. His life was so empty without Emilia. That afternoon together... when he brought that tiny puppy to her ... every moment of it was vividly in his head. He smirked when he thought about that day. The last day they spent together. He was lost in that thought meanwhile he was waiting for his scene to shoot and the others to arrive.
"Harington" Richard appeared next to him, with Gemma by his side and he patted his shoulder. "You look good."
"You are here early." Gemma smiled at him. "How are you?" 
"Fine, fine." He lied. "I .. and you? How's Dominic?" Kit asked her.
"We are more than fine but he is in New York. But at least we don't drive each other crazy. It's good for our relationship that we don't spend all our time together." she giggled. 
"As I see Kit thinks it in a different way," Richard stated.
"What?" Kit frowned and he followed Richard's look towards to a point and spotted Rose. 
"So she doesn't let you out of her sight." Richard laughed but Kit was so speechless. He shocked and he couldn't believe to his own eyes. Rose was standing a bit further from them and waved to them with a smile on her face.
"Would you please forgive me?" Kit sighed and left them there. Richard just laughed at him, but Gemma was surprised and she hesitated for some minutes and kept her eyes on them. 

"What are you doing here?" Kit asked her so seriously and a bit madly. 
"You don't look happy to see me, honey." Rose placed her hands to his chest but he grabbed those by her wrists and moved it away.
"What are you doing here, Rose?" Kit repeated his question.
"I just wanted to know how's the filming going," she answered and pulled a sad face.
"So that is it, huh? Now, are you even following me?" Kit rolled his eyes. "To be sure, that I am not anywhere around Emilia?" 
"You broke up, didn't you?" Rose raised a brow. "Why would you be around her? I thought you... did not end in a good way." she smirked. "Otherwise, not too long ago, you spent quite a lot of time in her flat." she looked into his eyes. 
"How well informed you are. Why am I not surprised." Kit laughed sarcastically. 
"Do not try to lie to me Kit. I am not an idiot." Rose shook her head. 
"Well if you are that well informed... you know that was the last time when I met with her. I brought some of her stuff back. That she left at my place. And we could talk. As adults. Or that also forbidden to me?" Kit tried to act cool. He knew she was following him, it was so clear. He knew her too well. He knew that decision to stay there with Emilia that day was irresponsible but he couldn't restrain himself. When he kissed her lips the events followed one another, and they were in the arms of each other. He couldn't just leave her. 
"So you two are besties again?" Rose pulled a face. 
"Not that it belongs to you, but ... nothing can fix that we screwed up." he lowered his head. "We both made a mistake when we..."
"When you thought there is more between you two than some fuck?" she laughed at him. Kit raised his eyes at her, and he has to focus on himself. To hide his real emotions. He wanted to slap Rose in the middle of the streets. He did not care about who is gonna see it or not, but that would only cause problems. 
"It was just that." he swallowed. "You are right," he admitted. 
"Then I think you shouldn't meet with her again." she stepped closer to him. "Just to avoid misunderstandings. Just... before the heat of the past catches you again," she smirked. "It wouldn't be good." 
"You better go home," he told to her face. "I am sure everyone saw that you are here. So you'll have the articles that you want probably. So go home and let me work." he was serious.
"We should meet more often. It is hard to believe that we are a happy couple meanwhile we barely see each other." she smiled at him and leaned closer, but he took a step back. "We have to work in this," Rose added and turned her back at him and finally, she walked away. Kit was watching her still she turned left on the corner. He did not need and did not expect that talk, but at least he knew he was right. And he hated it.
