I remembered watching that interview, I knew instantly that the song was about me. I thought how messed up she was for writing that song because at that time I thought she had cheated on me when really her grandmother wasn't in good health. Now that I understand what the song meant, I understand that she was saying that she was sorry for basically nothing. For my stupidness basically. We got called about onto set and we went over the fight scene a couple of times and Isabella and I were done for the day. She went to her trailer while I went to mine.
*Skip to the weekend* I got a text from Isabella of the address. I drove to her brother's apartment and picked up Isabella. I drove into La. I park the car and we start to walk down the streets. We make small talk, it's still awkward because 4 years ago this is what we would be doing. "I was surprised when I found out you haven't dated anyone since we break up." She said. God something, about her broken English I love, her Italian accent I love it. "Well I just didn't feel like it I guess." Yep the stupidest answer. "Well you know me so I had no reason really to date anyone." She tells me and I nod my head. We walked into a small cafe and I ordered both of us drinks. I walked over to Isabella who was sitting at a table looking around the place. "You know I didn't mean to eavesdrop but when you were talking to Scarlett a couple of days ago, I might have heard the conversation you both were having. Again I didn't mean to eavesdrop but I just want to say sorry for not letting you explain yourself, now I understand why you kept flying back to Italy. But can I ask you, why would you be seeing your Ex girlfriend for your grandmother?" Isabella sighs and doesn't look into my eyes. "Mia's parents are family friends. That's why I would see her when I went to Italy. Sorry I never brought that up." She tells me still not looking me in the eyes. "Hey it's my fault, you don't like to talk about Mia and I just assumed. I'm sorry." I said to her while I took her hands into mine and she shook her head. We didn't talk for a while until I broke the silence. "Did you ever think of what the future would be like if we didn't break up?" I ask her and she sighs again and leans back into her chair and looks me in the eyes. "Yeah I do. A lot actually. I think that maybe everything would be fine but who knows at that point." I nod my head in agreement. We both finish our drinks and head back to the car. Isabella brought her football so we drove to the park. We got out of the car and walked to a flat grassy area. Isabella started to kick the football around and I watched in amazement. Yes I might be from Britain but I could never play as well as Isabella can when it comes to football. She taught me quite a lot of difficult moves in football when we were together and of course I failed but she didn't care. We both knew fans were going to spot us together and think we were together or getting back together, but like she said. We're just here as friends. Truth is when she said that I felt hurt, I wanted to be more than friends but I just dont think she wants to. She practices football and I ask if she can teach me a little. I try to do something but I do it incorrectly and she puts her hands on my hips to help me. I blush at what she is doing and later on I get better at what I'm doing with the football. I took her back to her brother's apartment after a while.
After that I go home and sleep. I think about what happened today, I really want to ask her to be mine again but I'm just scared something like last time is going to happen. Next thing you know my phone is blowing up with texts from Scarlett.
Scarlett: Girl, have you seen the photos?
Florence: What photos?
Scarlett: Of you and Isabella today. Paps got you both and people are freaking out. Especially the one with her holding your hips.
Florence: Oh dear lord we were not dating, we went as friends.
Scarlett: Oh I know. I heard when you asked her and let me tell you. It was awkward. But when are you going to get your girl back before someone else does?
Florence: What?
Scarlett: I heard that Brie Larson wants to date Isabella or something. But a lot of people want to date Isabella. Like a lot of people, so get your girl before something happens.
Florence: I don't know. I don't think she wants me anymore.
Scarlett: Tell me what girl doesn't want you and continues to hold your hips.
Florence: She was helping me.
Scarlett: They have photos of you blushing when she held your hips. Also what happened at the Oscars. They still have photos of you both.
Florence: They also have photos of us kissing and doing PDA, hugging and holding hands when we were together 4 years ago. Half of our followers, their profile picture is us together, you don't think we realise that.
Scarlett: I do know that I've heard from other people, but people do love you both as a couple and so do I.
Florence: Well thanks but nothing happened today, we just went out as friends also as you heard.
Scarlett: Ok, but you might want to address that to your followers before they start thinking that you're dating again.
Florence: Alright I'll do it later.
*End of messages*After that conversation I ended up going to sleep. "I'll address that problem tomorrow." I said to myself before I closed my eyes and went to sleep.
