"Hey." I tried to smile avoiding eye contact.
"Hey there. How'd you sleep?" He smirked.
I had forgotten he had asked a question because I got lost in his beautiful eyes.
"Uhhh Dylan?"
"Oh yeah , uh I slept good could've been better. but a lot of things could better right now ha...ha" I replied almost sounding idiotic.
He started laughing, "You know, when we broke up I swore that , that laugh would be the only thing I miss."
"Well that's kinda shitty don't you think?"
"NO no! See just like old times , you didn't let me finish!" He backfired laughing and smiling.
I tried to fight off the smile that was growing on my face.
"What I was saying was... I swore that this was the only thing I was going to miss but it's not. I miss you. I miss your presence everyday. I miss laughing with you. I miss texting you every night."
"Jack what about Madison?"
"What about her? I miss you and she isn't going to stop that. I like her. but I loved you at once and I just want things to be settle between us."
"See this is what I didn't want Jack. I didn't want to hear those things because I knew it would hurt more to get over you. I still love you. I still want us." I felt the tears taking over my eyes.
"Let's go inside and talk." he came and opened the door for me.
We walked inside and sat where we used to when we were together.
"Where did we leave off?"
I couldn't do this. This was like old times. This was like when we used to argue. We would come to Joey's coffee room and remind each other how much we loved another.
"Dylan , do you remember when I slipped under the car that time racing for shotgun." He laughed
I did remember. My mom was taking us to the movies back in freshman year. We were racing to shotgun and he slipped on the wet grass and slipped allllll the way under the car. It was something I couldn't forget.
"Yes , sadly I can't forget it." I laughed as well. "Wait remember when I let you do my makeup? Oh my god. That was terrible."
"You told me I could do what I wanted remember that." He shot back with that beautiful smile of his.
"Yeah yeah, so how are things with Madison? Is it everything the media says it is?"
"To be completely honest no." He looked down "She actually didn't want me coming today. but knowing if you knew that you wouldn't have come whether or not I wanted to."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean she found out about us online. She found pictures of us out and old messages and tweets. She was fairly upset because after that night I saw you I could only stare blankly at my food."
"Oh."
"Y-yeah." he slid a little closer to me in the U shaped booth " I don't want her Dylan. I want you."
I felt my phone buzz in my back pocket...
10:26 a.m.
From: Maaaaargoooooo
Subject: where the shit are you?
Where did you go? have you seen my baseball tee?
I purposely ignored her message because I know if she finds out there will only be hundreds of questions and yelling.
"Dylan. Did you hear me?"
"Yeah i'm sorry I was looking at Margo's text."
"That's okay, is everthing okay?"
"Yeah mhhmmm it's fine. She just wondered where I was."
"JACK GILINSKY." Madison came walking in obviously pissed off at something.
"Awww shit." We both muttered
"Jack what are you doing? I told you I didn't want you seeing this girl ever again." She put her hand on her hip "Let's go Jack. We have to be somewhere in an hour and you're not even ready. Let's go!"
I stood there dumb founded as Jack stood up ready to go.
"Bye bye princess." Madison smiled.
"See-ya." I replied.
I pulled out my phone almost crying , but not entirely yet.
10:57 a.m
To: Maaaaargoooooo
Subject: Can you come get me?
I'm at Joey's can you get here ASAP?
Once she saw the word Joey's i'm sure her and Nat already knew what went down after the 100th time they've met me down here because of heart ache.

I sat there trying to understand what just happened. Did it really? Was I dreaming?
No. It happened. Yes. It really did, and No I wasn't dreaming.
This hurt. My gut felt like it was tightening, my head and heart were pounding. I couldn't feel my hands. I couldn't even see straight. He left me here alone at Joey's.
Stupid me. I thought for once maybe something would change his mind. This hurt. It was like the day he broke up with me all over again.
·flash*back·
"No Jack. I don't want to this is just a bump in the road." I cried , begging him to stay. I hated when girls begged. It made them seem helpless and needy but right now I was both of those.
"Dylan you know it's what is best. I can't argue anymore. I can't break your heart anymore. enough is enough and I just have to let go." Jack let go of my hand. He had tears covering his eyes as well.
There was a hole in my stomach. Just an empty worn out pit. nothing could make this better not even a night with Margo and Nat.
"I'm going to go now." He looked away breaking the bond with our eyes.
"okay." I replied sitting at the park bench covered in rose petals.
Whoa , who would've known such a sweet day could've turned into this loving hell of one.
"Dylan. Can I please just have one last hug. One last kiss?" He extended his arm to me.
"It'll only make it worse Jack." I replied shaking my head.
"No , Dylan please."
I stood up in front of him , car keys in my hand and gave him a hug.
He leaned in and kissed my lips.
It didn't feel like a usual kiss. I didn't want to pull away. I couldn't ,but he finally did.
"Thank you." He kissed my forehead and left.
