I slowly started my walk home, when I heard a buzzing. I took my phone, and guess who was calling?? Well, the magical Scott of course.

"What? I said I would come home when I was done thinking, and maybe actually had a semblance of what I what going to say."

"Oh... sorry... I was just gettin g worried, it's 4 AM, and Kayla said you weren't in the e shop anymore... sorry."

"I took the long route home ok? I'll be home in about 20 minutes, just be patient ok??"

"Ok... bye Mittens."

"Bye Scott."

I put away my phone, skipping along down the street. I through away my finished latte, and took out my phone scrolling down to find Kayla's contact. Once I found it I texted her.

Girl ;): When did Scott call you?

Kk: A while back, why did he finally take my advice and just call you instead of trying to stalk you by talking to me?

Girl ;): You said that lol.

Kk: Yeah, I've known him for a while, I know all about how he doesn't know how to read people, and the fact that he doesn't know how to put on some fucking courage and talk about EMOTIONS, because I mean, shit it's so foreign and difficult.

Girl ;): Tell me about it, just wanted to check if he was telling the truth...

Kk: I know it seems like he doesn't, but he does care...

Girl ;): I know, it's just hard to give that power.

Kk: I feel you, now go sort this shit out, because I don't want to be you referee, or whatever.

Girl ;): K, haha

I looked up, and realized I was already at the apartment, and walked up to the front door, pausing for a moment to take a deep breath. I opened the door, and walked inside looking at a very distressed Scott.

"Mitch-"

"No," I cut him off, "your gonna listen, and you are, for once, gonna pay attention. Ok?"

He nodded.

"I know you say you love me, but I just can't bring myself to completely believe you. I know you say you care, but I just haven't figured out how to process that yet, and so, I'm sorry but you are just going to have to find a way to prove it to me."

Scott just looked at me dumbfounded, and I continued, "I know that you think that I just disappeared on you, but you were so caught in up in yourself when we were growing up, you didn't take the time to realize that maybe I was having a rough time. You just didn't know, and that's not my fault. I didn't just disappear from your life, you basically asked me to. I told you we would be done if you walked out of the door that day, and you still did. That isn't my fault. I always knew I wasn't your first priority, but you were always mine and it wasn't fair. So, if you want me to believe you, you're just going to have to wait it out, because I don't believe you yet. When you told me earlier on the phone, you called Kayla worried, I texted her to make sure you weren't lying, because I didn't think you cared that much. So, there you go, that's how I see things, and if you care to stick around long enough, I will get there, I just... I don't know if I can trust you right now, with the amount of pain you've caused me..."

He just nodded. After a few moments of silence, I began to walk to my room. I felt someone's hand grab my wrist, and I was forced to turn around. Scott looked into my eyes, and cupped my cheek gently bringing our lips together.

"I will prove it to you, I swear." He gave me one last slow kiss, and with that went back into his room.

Maybe...

Just maybe... he did care.
