Just Let me be Selfish now

Just Let me be Selfish now (KathQuen- Kathryn Bernardo and Enrique Gil)

Note:This is NOT a kathniel short story. If you are a real and loyal KathQuen fan, then you'll be able to get the meaning and point of this story :)))

Related to reality (just a little, though) :p

New York City...

The theater rang with laughter. Kathryn grimaced. It was a comedy, but as she sat there, she found more tears streaming down her cheeks. She eventually looked down. She knew a part of her still loved him, but she didn't know it'd hurt this much.

"I think I'm going to use the bathroom." She said slowly getting up. Daniel looked at her and gave a small nod.

"I'll be here." He said back, with that she walked outside.

She looked into the mirror. Since it was the premiere, she couldn't help but wonder if he was here. Either way, she didn't think she wanted to run into him. She didn't know if she would've been able to take seeing him.

Look at me, she thought, 10 years later and I'm still a fool.

She eventually gathered herself and walked out of the bathroom. She'd finish the play, she wouldn't run.

As the curtains closed and the theater echoed of applause, the audience started making their way out and the theatre slowly emptied. Outside in the hall, as she made her way to the exit with Daniel, she couldn't help but lock eyes with someone.

They were the same eyes she'd known so well. The same eyes that stared deeply at her own, the last thing she saw before they shared kisses in the alley before the PAI studio. The contacts were gone now, but they were the same eyes.

She forced herself to look away, and made her way out the door, hoping it was the last time she'd ever see them again. A small part of her though hoped, that she'd meet them again.

Late at night she found herself awake. They were in the hotel now and she was asleep in Daniel's arms. She hasn't been able to get him out of her mind. She felt horrible, she had a husband now.

She was on her honeymoon, but rather her thoughts being filled by images of her husband, she found it was being filled with thoughts of him. He looked the same, aged a bit, but still the same handsome face that she had once loved...and maybe will love for the rest of her life.

The next morning, Daniel seemed to come down with a cold. She didn't want to leave him alone, but at his insistence she found herself walking through the city by herself. A small part of her wondered if he was faking, but immediately shook it off.
