Savior

29. Until we meet again

I had to be dreaming. The most realistic dream ever.

He was standing there in front of me while making pancakes. He was still as beautiful as three years ago. I never thought I would see him again.

Suddenly it hit me. I woke up in his bed wearing his shirt.

"Oh, God, did we... I mean did I... no did you..." I struggled to find the words.

He laughed a little at my panicked face.

"No, we didn't have sex." He answered.

I sighed in relief.

"That makes me feel a little better. Not that I didn't wanna have sex with you but... God, I really should stop talking. " I mumbled to myself.

He invited me to sit down and have breakfast with me. There was a lot of tention at first but he soon started speaking.

"I didn't think I would ever see you again."

Same for me. I had always thought that after our break up our paths wouldn't cross anymore. I had hoped so. It was easier that way.

It doesn't mean that I didn't want to see him ever again. I still loved him with all my heart and nothing was gonna change that.

"I'm sorry.." I mumbled. "For what ? For breaking my heart in the middle of the dance floor ?"

Ouch.

"Now that I hear it from you mouth, it doesn't seem so nice anymore. Look, I didn't mean to end it like that."

He was looking at me showing that he was listening.

"I wanted to wait after prom. I had made this whole plan in my head but you caught me of gard and I..I panicked." I explained.

He smiled. The prettiest smile I had ever seen. I missed seeing his face. Those dimples that used to make me shiver.

Yup. I was definitely still in love.

I looked around me and my eyes catched something.

Something shiny was placed in a little box on a shelf. I focused my sight on it and realized.

"You kept it."

He looked confused at first but than noticed what I was looking at.

"Oh yeah, it's nothing."

I could see his cheeks turning red as he rushed to place himself in front of it.

"I thought I was the shy one." I joked.

He blushed even more which made me smile.

"So, what's new ? You seem to be better." He tried to change the subject.

"Yeah, I guess therapy really helped me."

He looked confused by the word therapy. Is it so unbelievable that I searched for help ?

"Therapy ?"

I shook my head in affirmation. I don't know why exactly but he let out a breath of relief and before I knew it his arms were around my waist and his head was burried in my neck.

It took me a while to realize before I hugged him back.

"I missed you. A lot." He whispered.

I felt my heart stop. He was supposed to hate me but instead he was telling me how much he missed me. Then I realized. We were not in a movie so it wasn't going to end like a movie.

"I missed you a lot too."

***

I hopened the door. My best friend was already waiting for me behind it probably waiting for a story time.

I told her to sit down and started explaining everything.

"So he just forgave you like that ?"

I nodded not understanding it myself.

Her eyes widened and I thought I was going to lose my hearing as she started screaming.

"Wait." She stopped. "Are you guys gonna get back together ?"

"I don't think it's a good idea. Plus, it's Hunter we're talking about. A guy as beautiful as him doesn't wait. He probably has a girlfriend."

"Did he tell you that ?" She asked.

I shook my head and she slapped me.

"Then fucking ask him, Ava. You can't hide forever. You have to get him back."

She was right. I had to get him back. It wasn't gonna be easy but I had to.

"But how do I do that ?" I ask.

She rolled her eyes like if I was the stupidest person on earth.

"Just talk to him. He's in love with you, It'll be easy."

"WAS in love with me." I corrected her.

She rolled her eyes. "You're probably the stupidest person on earth. Why do you think he brought you to his appartement after the incident at the club ?" She asked me.

I thought a little. All I remembered was that I woke up in his bed the next morning.

"Because he felt bad ?"

"No, Dumbass ! It was because he was worried about you." She said.

Now that she said it it was kinda obvious. But why did he worry for me. After what I had done to him he was still accepting me like if nothing happened.

"What you're gonna do is you're gonna grab your phone and send him a text. And don't lie to me I know you know his number by heart."

She knew me so well.

She handed me my phone and waited for me to do as she told me.

"But what if-"
"Ava!" She yelled. "Sorry."

I started writing a text but then deleted. Then I wrote another one but deleted it  too.

I could tell Maria was getting impatient. She grabbed my phone and put it down.

"If you're not gonna send this text we're going right to hid place."

She grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the door.

I started to panick. She wasn't gonna force me to do that, right ? She wouldn't.

As we arrived in front of the door I recieved a notification.

I pulled my phone out of my pocket and looked at the screen. I recognized the number as soon as I saw it.

It was a text from Hunter.

Hunter: hey it's Hunter in case you didn't know. I was wondering if you'd like to go out tomorrow night. There's thid new movie that we could go watch.

"Guess he did it for you."
