The Love Game: A Hardship Love [To Be Edited]

Chapter 30:"His Return"

RECAP:
I turned around...

As I turned around I saw a familiar light-brown haired guy...

"I-is that really h-him after all this years..."

I walked a few steps towards him...

As he come closer towards us his face starts to look so clear,not a blur anymore...

"I-it really is him..."

There was a warm smile plastered to his face as he comes closer...I could tell he was happy to see me...
I felt tears forming in my eyes...

Our eyes locked in and I saw those familiar hazel colored eyes again...after so many years..

"P-Phoebe..."He stuttered.

I felt the tears I've been holding fall down on my face...

"C-Cole..."
~~•~~•~~•~~•~~•~~•~~•~~
Phoebe

My heart was pounding out of my chest, every beat increasing ever so slightly as I started making my way past towards him. He looked so handsome as ever.

His light-brown locks shining from the colorful lights cascading the whole dimly lit gym making him much more dreamy. His eyes, his hazel colored eyes that I missed so much that never fails to make me feel warm inside everytime he gazes in mine with those loving eyes. And lastly, his smile. He gave me the warmest smile. That same old charming and dorkiest smile I longingly missed these past 7 years that never failed to give me butterflies.

This can't be a dream, right? Please tell me this isn't a dream.

Everything felt so surreal and yet so cliché. It felt like I was in a scene in a romantic movie or novel where the 2 main characters have finally reunited for so long as everything around them plays in slow motion, leaving them both in some sort of dreamscape world where everything is a blur leaving just the 2 of them existing.

"C-Cole..."I stuttered, as the tears that were fighting for their freedom just a short while ago have finally won the battle and now flowing freely down my face.

Happiness, sadness, guilt and astonishment whirled within me like a boat in a middle of a treacherous storm called my emotions.

"Phoebe..."He softly uttered, as he lovingly caressed her cheek still gazing at her softly before engulfing her in a tight warm hug.

I hugged back, enjoying the warmth of his safe embrace not even caring if I looked like a mess at this point as tears continually stream down from my eyes.

I can't believe he's alive... After all this years...

"Sshhhh Im back don't cry anymore I won't leave your side ever again"He said while  hugging me, as he gently patted my head, trying to comfort me.

"I-I'm so s-sorry... it's all my fault. If I haven't avoided you that day then you wouldn't been hurt in the first place" I uttered as I hug him more tightly, afraid to lose him again.

He reach out his hand as he caressed my cheek wiping a few tears from my face.

"You don't have to be sorry you didn't know what's gonna happen..."He comforted.
