Game For Two

Bella Please

It was 6 I helped my mom feeding the kids dinner and I shot upstairs to get ready. Im going to see Bella, no distractions just me and her. My mom said she called and said she was staying home tonight so I know when I get there she is going to be there. I showered and walked to the closet just staring trying to figure out if I want to go just in jeans and a hoodie or do I want to dress nicer for her. All this work you think we were going on a date or something. I settled on that winner from back when we were dating, the navy button up and black jeans. She could never say no to me when I wore that, its always been her favorite. It was 7:30 when I finally finished getting ready with hugs to the a kids and a kiss to my mother I was off.

First stop was the florist for pink and white roses then Trata I called in a favorite from a friend of mine who is the manager there and had him make me two of Bella's favorite dish to go. One last stop to the liquor store for a bottle of Moet and I was on my way to her house. The entire hour to her house I played in my head everything I want to say. I know she is gonna fight me but I cant accept that my world is gone and Im going to fight like hell for her. 

When I pulled up to the house I seen the living room light on, I can see her from the window she had my college sweatshirt on and some leggings, her hair on top of her head and a sad expression on her face. I grabbed the flowers and dinner and headed to the door. My nerves are all over the place. I stood for a good 10 minutes outside of the door almost scared to knock. I took a deep breath and said a prayer to god and my father that she wouldnt shut the door on my face and she would listen and raised my hand knocking.

I heard the click of the latch a second later and there she was, as sad as she looked she still is the most beautiful woman I ever seen.

"Joe what are you doing here?"

"Bella I came to see you and talk"

"I think you should go, there's not nothing to say."

"Thats where you're wrong baby Girl, listen I picked up dinner..your favorite from Trata and Moet. Can we sit and talk please."

"I dont know Joe"

"Bella please...Can I come in?"

I never expected when I answered the door that Joe would be on the other side of it. Here he is on my porch with Dinner and just looks so yummy in my favorite outfit I had to bite my lip at the sight. Part of me didnt want to let him in the other part wanted to grab him kiss him and drag him upstairs.

"I guess"

I stepped to the side and I felt his lips press to my cheek as he walked in.

"These are for you"

"I handed her the roses and her face lit up and a smile crossed her face. It was the first real smile ive seen on her face since ive been back. I followed her into the living room and thats when I noticed it on the TV she had old home movies of us on. She noticed and grabbed the remote

"Here let me turn this off Im sure you dont wanna see this"

"No leave it Bella."

She sat down and I sat next to her, she looks over,

"What do you want Joe?"

"You.. for you to listen to me, for us to talk."

"Joe there not really much to say, you said everything in that letter I got 15 minutes before we were suppose to get married."
