11- It Never Ends

"Everything I've loved, became everything I've lost."

Bring Me The Horizon

"So tell us, what happened yesterday evening ?" Calum asked.

" I told you, we went to dinner, I asked him some of the questions that were torturing me for a long time, and that's all, he brought me back home." I explained once again.

I forgave Michael for coming, since he didn't stay long, and said sorry. I know he's worried about me, and I would be too if I were in his place. Luke was also here and seemed pretty confused about what was happening.

"I think he doesn't understand why Michael was fuming about Phil when we were waiting to be served." Ashton laughed.

" Well, Luke, long story short, he's my ex, who left like two years ago for another country without saying a word to me." I explained briefly."

" Oh, okay."

" And so, how was practicing with him?" Ashton asked again.

" It was pretty good." I smiled. "A bit awkward for me at first, but he was really professional, and I decided to do so. Communication is still easy with him, so it's pretty good. I haven't forgiven him for what he did, but now I understand him a little bit better, and well, I never could bring myself to hate him, so that is not an issue."

They quickly decided to change the topic, and we decided to go skate a little.

The three following weeks went by pretty fast, and they also were pretty good. Today was Friday, or wrestling day! I went to the hall, almost running, and found Phil in his usual spot, but still dressed in normal clothes.

" Hey, erm, what are you doing?" I asked as I came to greet him.

" Today we're not training in here." He said with a slight smile. "Are you still against me driving?"

" Do I have a choice?" I sighed.

" Well, you can always choose to walk twenty kilometers." He teased.

" I'll take the car !" I exclaimed. "But where are we going?"

" You'll see." He smiled. " But you better tell your mother you'll come home a bit later than usual."

I said as he told and sent a text to my mother, as he led me to his car. I hopped in at the same time he does. I'm really curious about where we're going.

" Do yo want to put on some music?" Phil asked me. "You can chose, I don't care. I think I have CDs, or you can just plug in your phone."

I decided to put my own playlist in. Well it's a playlist we used to listen to when we were a couple, but I've continued listening to it and adding to it. When he heard the first three songs he looked at me weirdly.

" Is this?" He started.

" Yep, that's the old playlist." I said. "I continued adding songs to it, I hope you don't mind."

" Not at all."

We stopped the car almost 15 minutes later, in front of a gymnasium.

" Are you serious?" I asked in disbelief. "We drove all this way to train in another dojo?"

" Wait a bit before judging !" He said, amused.

We got out of the car and he led me inside. He shook someone's hand and then showed me the lockers.
