Chapter 7

Well use to but now I am single.
Wait what you said you were single?
I know I did but it's just me and him weren't in a good position and we were going through some things but now it's all done.
So you guys broke up ? Yea he did some stuff that I can't tolerate so I ended it. Oh but now your single right? Yea I am now single, Then that's perfect! So your not mad? I asked
No well I am kind of bothered that you lied but after all your here and single.Well that means I might actually have a chance right?
You might but right now I have to stand alone because I'm still in the process of moving on but I'll get through it . You don't have a girlfriend or anyone your talking to I asked
No I've been solo for almost two years it's been awhile he answered
Oh well I was solo for three years until you know I said
How long did you and him last he asked
We lasted almost eight months I answered
Can I ask what happened between you and him ?
Yea well he cheated on me with another girl in the same room as me and still looked me in the eye the next day telling me how much he loved me and really. I didn't feel the same way about him anymore there wasn't that spark anymore I answered.
You went through all of that and your still here smiling? he asked
Well just cause I'm here smiling it doesn't mean I'm actually happy but you know once in awhile you have to fake a smile I said. What about you have you ever had a harsh relationship that left you marked? I asked
Well there was once this girl that I fell in love with like really hard she was all I thought about I gave her everything.
And what happened? I asked
I wasn't enough for her there was always this one place me and her enjoyed going for dinner well I went there one night to go get her food because she was supposly sick. But when I go inside the restaurant I see her there with another boy from my school she was all over him she turned and saw me her eyes opened wide and she ran to me and started beging for forgiveness she still had the nerve to say she loved me.
What did you tell her? I asked
I didn't do anything all I said was I hope you have a great life with him because I'm done trying to be in it.
So I guess we both went through something that marked us right I asked. Yea but I always told myself the next time I get into a relationship I have to get to know them much better and not rush things he answered.
I know me too its been so hard for me to handle things I can't even control myself. I like this I feel like I can actually talk to you and your actually listening he said.
I know it was fun even if though we were talking about our past.
Well I should probably get home I have to wake up early for the early workouts I said
Oh your going to the gym tomorrow ? He asked
Yea I have to get things of my mind so I've been going everyday I answered.
Then I'll see you there he said
OK good cause I need a gym partner well of course if you want to I asked
Yea totally as long as I'm around you I'm happy he said
I was blushing a little but I tried to hide it.
We got in his car and he drove me back home
I got home and I saw that Vinnie was sitting on his porch table I didn't want to hurt him by him seeing me with another guy but I had to get home. Frank got of and opened his car door for me.
So I'll see you tomorrow right he asked
Yea I'll be there like what time are you going to be there? I asked
I'm going to be there around ten o'clock in the morning.
OK I'll be there early to get that morning workout I answered
great I'll see you there then. He leaned over towards me but I turned my head so he kissed me on the cheek
I'll see you tomorrow bye I said
He drove of I didn't turn to look at Vinnie I just walked home.
I saw my phone and frank texted me saying Goodnight beautiful
there I admit it I was blushing. I don't want to fall for him because I don't want to get hurt again I have to keep my distance.
I prepared all my gym stuff for tomorrow and went right to sleep. But of course my thinking didn't let me here I go thinking about Vinnie why can't I just move on and leave him behind and try to find someone better.
