Dani POV

We had just got to the coffee shop and settled down in our seats, Jack was a very sweet guy. He was so funny and seemed genuinely interested in me. As we are talking I hear some about my name. I turn and see Scott walking over, I stand to meet him and he wraps his arms around me.
"I thought it was you. How are you?"
"I'm good. You?"
"Yeah good thank you"
"Oh Scott this is Jack. Jack this is an old friend from Boston."
He shakes his hand and says hello. Before I can say anything else I hear that oh so familiar voice.

"Scott come on....." he stops as he sees me, shock on his face.
"Dani?"
I smile "hey Chris" he pulls me into a hug and I feel instantly at ease the moment I'm in his arms.
"How have you been?"
"I'm good how are you?"
"I'm good. I've missed you"
I smile sadly "I've missed you too"
He looks over at Jack and I feel bad, I forgot he was there.
"Chris this is Jack, he's my date. Jack this is Chris another old friend of mine"

"Your captain America"
Chris laughs "yes I am. Nice to meet you"
Scott looks between them both sensing the jealously from Chris and he places his hand on his arm.
"We should go Chris"
"Yeah of course. Nice to see you again dani and nice to meet you Jack"
He walks away and Scott smiles at me "give me a ring" he hands me a piece of paper "we should meet up"
"Definitely"
He kisses my cheek "give him time"
I nod and walks away. I know he would be mad about the fact I left without telling him but I didn't think he would be like this.
I go back to my date and have a great time. Trying to keep Chris out of my mind but ultimately failing miserably.

Chris POV

She was on a date, I haven't seen her in 6 months and she is dating someone. I shouldn't be angry, I'm not allowed to be angry. Dani was never mine, but somehow she was. I've not only been grieving grace but in someways dani too. I lost both of them and I miss them both more then anything. I can't get grace back but maybe I can get dani back.

"Seriously Chris? Could you make it anymore obvious?"
"What!"
"You still love her and just then you acted like that jealous ex. But your not Chris, your not an ex and you can't get angry because she is dating."
"I know okay. God I just......I miss her ok. I miss her so much and I haven't stopped loving her. But she doesn't want me and I'm going to have to just deal with that"
"It's time for you to move on chris, grace wouldn't want you doing this and she certainly wouldn't want you two to not be friends"

"I know. God I miss her too so much"
"Me too. But we can't get Gracie back Chris, but maybe just maybe we can get dani back"
"Yeah I know your right. Thanks Scott"
"No worries"
We head on into the studio where my interview is being held and I hope that dani does contact Scott because I would really like to rebuild our friendship.
