~Your POV~
I got the camera set up before I hit record, I looked over at him. "Are you sure about this?" I asked him.
"I'm fine with it, didn't you say it was best that they also hear my point of view as well?" He asked me.
"Yeah, but..." I said.
"Baby, it's fine." He said to me.
I smiled and hit record, "Hey guys, so AJ is here. By the title of this video you guys want some answers because of what happened and all of that, just to be on the safe side; I'm going to explain it really quickly incase you are new here. AJ and I dated for 4 years, a lot of shit happened in our relationship; he told me in a long text message explaining the reason he first started dating me and that he cheated. So, I broke up with him." I said to the camera.
"I think you better leave a link to that video, so people can get the full story." He said to me.
"Yeah, I'll do that." I said, "So if you have watched that video, you probably are wondering why we are now back together after all of that shit that happened almost 2 years ago? Well, before we get to that; I think we need to also talk about how it has affected us overall. So do you want to go first?" I asked him.
"Sure, well first off; after I sent that text message, I felt so much weight was lifted off my shoulders. Even though I knew it meant losing her, but she needed to know the truth. Was I upset? Yes, I lost someone I love deeply; but I felt so much was lifted off my shoulders and I knew it was for the best." He said.
"So overall, you felt it was the right thing?" I asked him.
"Yes it was, it was the right thing; but during the time we were apart...I felt so empty, I tried dating after a few months; since we separated, but nothing worked out. I really wanted to call you, but you didn't want to speak to me ever again; so I continued on with my life. I heard about the video because a few of my friends told me and started talking shit, which bothered me because I wasn't mad at you for making the video at all; it was because you're very close with your viewers and I told them, my friends that; 'she was allowed to post whatever she wants, I don't care.' Even people I didn't know pretended to know me started talking shit about you..." He said.
"Yeah, I did get a lot of negative comments from people; which is to be expected. It wasn't from your real friends, but people pretended they knew you. I literally asked one of them; 'Do you know my relationship with AJ? No you don't.' Same as you, I did go on a few dates; but nothing worked out, but I've been doing okay focusing on school, work and my channel as well." I said.
"Yeah, I was focusing on school and work as well." He said.
"So overall, we left each other alone and never really spoke to each other at school or talk to each other at all. We never tried contacting each other at all, so we pretty much moved on with our own lives." I said to the camera, "So, I bet you're wondering why we are back together? Well...um...how do we explain this?" I asked and looked at him.
He smiled at me, "I guess we tell the story." He said to me.
"You want me to explain?" I asked him.
"I can do it." He said to me.
"Okay." I said, he smiled at me.
"So what happened was I was at a club with some of my friends and she was also there with her friends, but I didn't know. So I went to get a drink and I saw her there by herself and I decided to try and talk to her because it's almost been 2 years since we broke up. So I was nervous, but I took the chance and spoke to her and she was surprised I was there." He said looking at me.
"I was, I was just sitting there and all I was thinking was 'fuck'. Like literally..." I said and we both laughed.
"So anyways, I spoke to her and asked how she has been. You hardly wanted to talk to me at all, which was understandable because it was awkward." He said looking at me.
"Yeah, like I didn't want to run away because that's just rude; but I tried to talk, it was just hard." I said.
"Which was fine, I would have run away too and I wouldn't have blamed you if you did; but yeah, we spoke for a bit. You were getting comfortable around me again and yeah, after that I left and didn't speak to her until I got a text." He said, he smirked at me.
"Okay, I texted him 2 days later; only because I didn't know if he would be at the club again. Something was telling me to contact him, don't get me wrong; I was scared because of what happened in the past. All the fighting and stuff, but I put that all in the back of my head saying remember the good times; which there was a lot of those. So, I texted him and we started talking again. Three weeks later we went to go get some coffee and he asked me out again, I was nervous." I said looking at him.
"Yeah, all I was thinking was 'shit'; but you agreed and same thing, I was scared of the past repeating itself because I didn't want to be like that again with you." He said.
"A lot of my family and friends were surprised we got back together, but they can see how much we both have changed as people and in our relationship to me...I feel like our relationship is a lot stronger and better, it's only been 3 months so far; but you talked to me more and we are there for each other more." I said and looked at him.
"I agree with you because one thing I wanted was to really make it work because during the time we were apart, sure we both dated other people; but I still love you, like a lot. I wanted to change the parts of me that were so negative and I also felt like you have opened up to me more as well." He said looking at me, I smiled at him; he smiled back. I leaned in and kissed his lips, then I hugged him; he held me tightly.
I put my head on his shoulder while he had his arm wrapped around me, he laid his head on my head. "So anyways, that's all I wanted to share with you guys. I hope you guys understand, bye." I said, we both waved bye. I turned off the camera, I picked it up and put it on my desk. I was going to edit it later, AJ sat on my bed and I went up to him; I sat down next to him. He hugged me and laid me down on his chest. He kissed the top of my head and I snuggled into his chest, we both then fell asleep.
