Finally, We Meet Again

Ch.23

Gwens Pov

I didn't really know what to do at the moment. I mean It would mean the world to me that Jon would remember but an emotion that I felt 11 years ago came back. An unforgiving feeling, one that kind of made me turn against the idea of meeting him again.

I mean he came out with a huge secret but left without even saving time for me to process his secret. He left me standing there like a complete idiot and never told me he was moving right away.

So when Paige was pushing for me to stand I swatted her hands away and grumbled."Leave me alone", making her look at me confused.

"Wait, this is a huge moment for you and Dean why don't you want to go see him again?", She asked making everyone at the table look at me with the same confused expression.

"Apparently you haven't heard my side of the story. He dropped a bombshell on me and left without me even having time to process it. I was a mess after he left and he never came in back so I moved. I couldn't handle that pain, at least I couldn't handle it when I had a dream to pursue.

I'm not even settled into the company yet, but he all of a sudden he's being forced upon me just because we had history.

No way, that's in the past. Before I realized this I'm not gonna lie. I wanted to see him again but after thinking about the past events, I want time to get settled into the company first", I ranted on everyone listening for what I have to say.

"I'm sorry Gwen we should have listened to you first before we did this. But he is a wreck, trust me I've seen him on one of his bad breakdowns before", Paige says making the table nod there heads agreeing. Breakdown? What does she mean.

"What do you mean by breakdown?", I ask.

"Gwen about that whole thing you just said, I think its too late. Dean is looking over here", Nikki whispered. I snapped my head looking frantically all around the room until my eyes landed on someone I haven't seen in 2 years.

He hasn't seen me in 11 years but I saw him when I visited Raw 2 years back. He looked so...beaten down and lonely. His eyes were worn and tired looking almost like a droopy dog. His skin was no longer vibrant it was pale and almost grey.

His hair was messy in light brown almost orange curls and his stubble even grown out more. The suit he had on was crisp and clean but his tie caught my attention.

The color blue, the same color I was wearing and my favorite color. He remembered because if anything he would have forgotten my favorite color.

I remember when we were in Junior year and I first met him, we hung out. That night he made an oath to always where the color blue to fancy occasions.

I just laughed it off, but he kept through with his promise. He wore it to every party, every wedding, every funeral even. He even wore it to prom. We went together but I said as strictly friends.

His Beautiful light blue eyes scanned the crowd as conversations pocked up again and some people looked at him strangely because he looked like he had a mission. That mission was me.

I was going to try and sneak out of this party but now when his eyes stopped at me and they slightly widened from afar I was frozen. This is the first time we have locked eyes in person for so long. Its been too long. His shoulders relaxed from there hunched position and it looked like his lifeless eyes popped with color once again.

His skin lit up and he smoothed his hair back making it even more messy. His mouth agar and I'm sure mine was too. He took one tantalizing step forward and I quickly stood. Everyone staring at us were smiling and Paige gently pushed me forward which forced me to take a step forward as well.

Deans face lit up more as he grinned, he grinned even more when I took another step forward. I missed his smiles. *Step* his funny jokes *Step* His childish behavior *Step* His hugs his warmth *Step* His comforting words everything and I would finally not have to miss it anymore because he remembered.

I missed him

He remembered an old friend from Cincinnati that he used to love. Maybe even still love.

I pushed my hair behind my ear and wiped under my eyes getting rid of the old tears. I laughed a Miny laugh and smiled back at him."Oh how I've missed you Jonathon Good", I whispered making the people around me awe. At this point I didn't care if he left me way back when. All I cared about was getting to Jon and hugging the day lights out of him.

Dean started walking to me never leaving my eyes. I let a few more teas slide out as I noticed he had tears falling out of his own eyes. He was wiping his eyes while he took step after step toward me. I couldn't seem to keep standing so I leaned on the chair next to me. I looked back up to see him at least 10 feet away. I looked behind him to catch Roman clapping and smiling at his friend. I saw Seth standing by the bar with his hand around I'm guessing his girlfriend. He was smiling at me and Dean. He nodded to me and I got off the chair and began walking again.

I didn't realize that I was on the dance floor until my heels made clicking noises. Everything was in slow motion. I couldn't hear anything, but the faint beat of the music. It sounded like an echo almost. I started to get a bit dizzy but I don't think its anything important. I looked at Paige and she was smiling at us as was everyone at the table. 

I looked to where Hunter was with Stephanie and they were hugging each other grinning at me and Dean. I looked back at where Dean was and he just reached the dance floor. I grinned at him and reached down to take my heels off. I slipped them off quickly before throwing them off the dance floor. 

"What are you waiting for Gwen", he called out. His raspy voice that sounded nothing like when we were teenagers. I was already attracted to it. I grinned shaking my head at him.

"Absolutely nothing Mox", I called back before I did the one thing I've been waiting to do for so long now.

I ran, I sprinted

Full speed at him.

He readied himself before I jumped right onto him. He caught me mid air and twirled me around. It felt like a dream that I was here with my best friend in his arms. I was smiling down at him into his pools of blue. He was smiling that crooked smile I've grown to love. His face pulling up into the dimples I absolutely loved. He put me down and didn't waste anytime hugging me tightly to his chest. My back was toward the crowd and his face was facing towards it. 

My arms were around his waist since I wasn't tall enough to reach around his shoulders. My head buried in the crook of his neck. His arms were around my back while one hand stroked my hair. His head rested on top of mine and he kissed my forehead multiple times. I felt so lucky and giddy. I thought this would never happen again.

"Finally, we meet again", he whispered pulling away a bit. I pulled back and grinned up at him."Its nice to see you too Jon", I whispered. His eyes were lit up and vibrant they held so much emotion, but on thing defiantly caught my eye. Love. He still felt love towards me.

"I love you Gwen, never stopped", He whispered to me kissing my forehead for the millionth time.I looked up at him and my smile wiped off. Those words were what most little girls dream of hearing. I know I did once, but who knew I would be hearing them again. For a second time. So I conjured up my thoughts and made hopefully the best decision of my life.

"I love you too Jon, never stopped", I whispered back. I felt his eyes burning a hole through my head and I looked up. He was staring down at me with so much passion it made me gasp. He did the one thing I longed for. He kissed me, and I kissed back. I only made it short since people were watching. But he pulled my face back and slammed his lips down ruffly onto mine.
