--------------------------------------------------------

A few days went by as I sat around the house refusing to go anywhere. Abby tried to get me out to a few parties but I told her that I'm taking me time.

My mother even intervened and asked if I wanted to go out to dinner with my mother and father. That sounded as appealing as letting monkeys throw poop at me.

I knew I had to do something about James. I missed him so much. I missed that straight perfect grin he always had. I missed the way his hand felt intertwined in mine. I missed the way he knew when something was wrong.

The best way to go about this is call him. I picked up the phone and dialed the numbers to his cell. As soon as I heard the first ring I chickened out and hung up right away. Stay Focused I thought. You can do this. I picked the phone back up and pressed re-dial. This time I let the phone ring. After about 3 rings I was going to hang up when I heard "Hey." My throat went dry and I found it hard to breathe with my stomach up in my heart. I managed a cackled "Hi."

"How have you been Sidney?" James's familiar voice came right through the phone, melting my heart.

"Good." I sat there and then added "I miss you."

"I miss you too." He said.

After a few moments of silence I asked "Do you think you can come over? I want to talk."

The line went silent when all of a sudden I heard "Yea, sure."

My stomach went back to normal, but now my heart was racing at the thought of seeing James again. I hurriedly said "Alright, I'll see you when you get here."

"Alright. Bye." He said, his voice soothing my entire soul.

I hung up and ran into my room. I sat down at the bed thinking about what I was going to say to him. I thought about everything I prepared in my head. A silent speech but when I looked out the window and saw James pull up I forgot everything I rehearsed. I started walking out to the hall when I caught a glimpse of myself in my vanity mirror. My hair was a mess. I guess that's what happened when you didn't care for a couple days.

I raked a comb through my hair holding back the screams. I pulled it up into a pony-tail to get out of my way. I finally finished and heard the door bell ring. Thank god nobody's home I thought.

I finally reached the door and pulled it open. James was looking amazing as always. He was standing there with a somber look on his face.

"Do you want to come in?" I asked.

"Yea." James said as he stepped into the foyer.

I led James over to the living room where he sat on the couch and I sat down on love seat directly across.

James looked around the room for a moment as if the room was more interesting than I was.

"So." I said breaking his concentration.

"So." He said back less enthusiastic.

"I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry about that night." I said looking down at my hands.

James looked at me long and hard before finally saying "I accept."

We both just sat there for a moment when he said "So, is that the only reason why you wanted me to come over? If it is then I think I got it and I should probably..."
