He walks toward me "I'm very surprised Ed Sheeran isin't playing on the radio today."
"Yeah, it seems like every day it was on!" I was secretly dieing inside after each word "I'm sorry" "About what?" Was he sorry about ditching me for some ex girlfriend of his? Better yet I over heard it was an ex wife! "My ex wife calls me up one day and tells me how sorry she was for leaving me at the alter.. I felt so bad and besides I was still in love with her. So I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm sorry for leaving you behind Present. You are an amazing girl but-"
"But I'm not her.." My eyes fill with water and I rush out of the bar as fast as I can.. I was going to unlock my car but I forgot where my keys were.. J comes rushing out like some sort of animal "listen Present!"
"No, I really do understand. You love her!" He looks at me and cocks his head to the side. "Is that what you think?.."
"Well that is the reason you guys are getting back together isin't it?" "Of course it is I just.." He reaches out for me but I pull away.. I spoke up "You just what!?" Then and there he pulls me toward him and our bodys slam together and we kiss.. It was a wet kiss not like any other but a kiss that showed me what love really is.. And I'm happy to be sharing it with him... "Uh I can't do this" I muttered "Present I do love you too" "But you love her more" He wipes his tears away and try to hold them back. "I don't know what else to do"
I wrap my hands around his neck "Choose who you think you will be happier with and I will just be here, waiting."
"I guess I'll let you know soon"

Mom dropped Lana off early this morning. J didn't call and it was like silence for the two days I was off...Until.... There was a knock on my door.. "Present who's that?" "I don't really know." I open the door to see a man holding flowers and a stuffed bear "Ugh this is a few things that this man in the car gave to you." I reach out for the flowers and the bear "Wow uhm thanks" I shut the door and there was a note on the flowers and the bear, on the flowers the note read "It was always you Present, I love you so much"(and he drew a picture of us kissing), the note on the bear read "Love you always -J" I walk and sit down on the couch "Mommy are you going to ever you a teddy bear?" I laugh "Here, babygirl keep it."

I just woken up ready for work again (did I mention I quit my last job?) Its not even going and doing work I mean, my boss is just having a meeting with us..
When I swung the door open Mr.Collby was sitting with the T.G.A gang at the bar discussing something important when Mr.Collby turned his head toward me "Present, glad you could make it!" J turns his head to the right just a little to were he wasn't looking directly at me but to were he could see me from the corner of his eye...
