You Proof: Morgan Wallen

Lizzie POV:
Courage? I didn't have any of that when I saw him, I could barely look him in the eye as Florence introduced him. His slender fingers wrapped around Scarlett's hand as they shook hands.

"Ford this is Elizabeth Olsen, she's going to be in the new Dr. Strange movie with Benedict" she said as he turned to look at me. "We've met before, old friends you could say" he said with a slight smile. "Nice to see you again Elizabeth" he continued before looking back at Florence.

Her face twisted into confusion for a slight second before it was replaced with a warm smile. "Alright then, would you all like to join us for dinner" she asked. I turned slightly to look at Scarlett who nodded towards me in agreement.

I looked back at Ford who had slung his left arm to hang over Florence's shoulder. He pressed a light kiss to her temple before turning back to face us. "Dinners on me" he said before his hand fiddled with the car keys in his pocket.

Scarlett and I trailed behind the couple as we walked toward the parking lot. The way he presented himself and the way he looked at her made me feel guilty. He used to look at me that way and yet it was all my fault we had broken up.

Ford POV:

Funny thing is seeing you again threw me for a loop. Not to mention the part where you've become friends with my girlfriend. Is this revenge? First you break my heart and say all of these awful things to me but now you want to rekindle our relationship?

Why? I am happy, I am doing great ever since you left me in the dust and I love Florence more than anything in this world. You aren't going to mess that up and I'll make sure of that.

Loading up in the car Florence took the passengers seat naturally. Her hand fit into mine like a puzzle piece crafted to fit perfectly. I didn't have to look in the rear view mirror to know that you were staring daggers into the back of my head.

Bringing Flo's hand up to my lips, I pecked the back of her while glancing over at her as we drove. She chuckled each time I did, this wasn't the unusual PDA you'd see from me and Florence. In fact this was just a plus that you got to see it.

Some my say that I'm living in the past and that I should for give you but the fact of the matter is what's the fun in that? "Babe?" Florence called my name stationing my train of thought. "Yes my love" I replied back to her my eyes flicking between her and the road.

"Did you hear what I said?" she questioned giggling lightly as my eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "I did not, I was caught up in my head" I joked making her hum at my response. "I said that you had a great game tonight, maybe even one of your best" she said repeating her statement from earlier.

"I agree Ford, it was an amazing game" Scarlett concurred from the backseat meeting my eyes in the mirror.

Regular POV:

"Very enjoyable" Elizabeth mumbled in response so she didn't make a scene, "thanks, I was a little distracted today so I thought I was off of my game" I admitted. "Off your game? I thought you did amazing and I bet Cherundolo thought so too, he looked excited on the sideline" Flo said convincing me.

I hummed in thought as we pulled up to the restaurant, walking into one of my favorite places I've grown to love since moving here. "Tims" was a family owned small pizza parlor on the east side of LA, after most of our games I'd bring some of my teammates with me to enjoy. Tim was the owner and who the restaurant was named after, I had grown close to his family after helping with a fundraiser he had put on to raise money for his daughters cancer treatment.
