Her hand is mine , her body is close to me , I feel the silk of her dress it is so tight , that I can feel her skin .
My heart is beating so fast and I am scared she can feel it or hear it , I know she knows I am nervous . But how can I not be . I am here with the girl I love and I have not seen in such along time . But we are dancing and we are close and I still love her . I can smell her perfume or maybe it is just how she smells , because it is how I remember she use to smell to .

I know I want. Her and if don't make that perfectly clear to her then I will regret that for the rest of my life .

The song ends and I am terrified because I know now I have to talk and figure out how to win my ex girlfriend back .

We let go of each other's hands .

" can we go out to the balcony for a second " I ask and I try to sound confident

" Max I think Beth and Kylie might be wondering where I am " she tells me

" only a couple of minutes " I beg

She nods her head and smiles

A piece of her hair falls and I want to move it but I don't .

The air is think but fresh.

" So you seeing anyone " I finally get the nerve to ask

" um no " she says
And moves the strand of hair behind her ear

" me either " I admit

" that is a lie you be with all kinds of women a different one like every weekend " she says

" so you been checking up on me Mia " I say
I cannot hide the satisfaction in my voice

This means she had some sort of interest in me .

" you are everywhere , you are a celebrity " she says

" there is nothing serious " I say

She looks at me and I look at her I feel something and it is pulling us together but I know it is not right just to kiss her it might make her run .

" you know what that dance reminded me of "
I say

She looks at me with a smirk .
Yea she knows too I can tell

" What " she asks

" The ball " I state

She smiles and looks down

" it was long time ago but the memories warm my heart , that is when I realize that I loved you " I confess

She raises her head up quickly
" I knew I had feeling I was trying to just get over them you was with my best friend Pier but I couldn't I couldn't ignore them after the ball I knew I was in love and always would be " I say
Now my heart is beating even faster

I am searching her eyes for a sign .

" Always " she asks

" yes Mia I still love you " I admit

She starts walking back and forth

" I have to go get some air " she says and head for the door

I slide over and shut the door with my hand where she can't get back inside

" Mia we are outside " I tell her

" oh " she says

I see a tear run down her face

" I didn't tell you this for you to cry or be upset I told you this where I would know that I did everything I could , and if you feel the same we could be together but if you don't then at least I will know I did everything " I tell her

She looks at me blankly

" Max you have a great life your dream " she says

" No , you was my dream ever since we got together , maybe even before that " I yell

" Max we are in different places and " she says but I cut her off by asking

" why did you not answer me I reach out so many times I was in love you and you just stopped,what did I do that was so bad that you just broke up with me and never talked to me again " I scream

" I know I did I was young " she cried and she is shaking her head

It seems like it is more to this but what could it be

" Mia was there someone else " I ask

" No there we not " she answers quickly

" so you just stop loving me " I ask

" No " she answers

" so you still love me " I say and rush to her and out my hands on her face

" it don't matter " she says
She moves my hands and heads for the door

" of course it matters I still love you , I Never stopped and there was never no one else only had one time daters because none of them was you I say loudly

She turns around
" I still love and I never stopped is that what you want to hear that I am pathetic that I have not moved on unless you want to count the 2 blind dates I went on in the past 5 years I just buried myself in work because it hurt too much and I knew no matter what no man would equal up to you " she screams
She is now full on crying .

" why are we fighting we both want the same thing " I explain or try to

She walks close

" that maybe true , we love each other but that don't mean we should be together " she says

" how can you say that " I say
I am applaud

How can she say she loves me and no man would equal up to me , but not want to get back together.

" I know you believe in love and neither of us has had love since each other that should tell you we are meant to be " I say and pray I get threw together her

" how would that even work you are professional baseball player " she asks

" I will move back here , I will travel for games ,
I will do what I have to " I say

" Max please have a great life you are the best but we just can't you were meant to be who you are " she says and she walks back into the reception

Leaving me heartbroken.
