Alex p.o.v.

i was taken aback by what he had said. my brow knitted together as I took a cautious step back, now about four feet away from him. I placed my hand on the sink counter as I kept looking at him.

he zipped up his pants and turned, adjusting his 'nerdy' glasses, to make sure what he was seeing was real.

"what did you. . . how did you. . ." I couldn't find it in myself to finish my sentences, too shocked for these events.

he took a step closer which made me stumble back quickly, nearly falling to the floor. he tried to put his arms on me to calm me down, but I dodged him.

"wh-who a-are you. . ." I choked out between dodges.

he finally lowered his arms, but only because he was in shock of me not knowing, or so I assumed. and now he looks like he was about to. . . cry?

I tilted my head as he averted his eyes to the ground. "I. . . I-I knew this would happen. . . I'm sorry. . ."

that voice. . . now that I can hear it more clearly, I knew right away who this man was.

I looked down a little to get a better look at his face again, but he still avoided eye contact.

"Jacky. . . ?"

at what I said, the man lifted his he's so he could catch my gaze. I could see the hope fill his eyes as he looked at me.

then he smiled.

"I can't believe you remembered me. . ." he said, and he went to hug me, but I raised a hand that landed in the middle of his chest. I pushed him away lightly and my expression turned to a loving hate. I glared at him even though I wanted to hug him.

"you can't believe I remembered you? I can't believe you didn't remember me!" i nearly shouted, making Jack flinch and look down submissively.

i lowered my voice and calmed myself, not wanting to get kicked out of the restaurant or bring attention towards us.

"Jack. . . i've waited ten years for you. . . i've stayed faithful to you. . . i haven't slept with a single person since you left! and what do you do? you go out and post pictures and tweet whenever you got a dude in bed with you nearly everyday! i texted you, called you, and not once did you return any of those!" by time i finished that last sentence, i had hot tears running down my face, and i couldn't tell if i was angry, sad, or overjoyed.

i looked at him and spoke in a voice i could barely hear, myself.

"tell me. . . why didn't you return anything?"
