Damon's POV:

I still couldn't stop thinking about Jo's break down at our date.

Honestly the date couldn't have gone worse.

We had been totally silent with each other then when we finally started talking, she sees that her friend just got shot.

Jesus.

Then on top of that she runs out on me.

I flopped down on my bed, burying my head in my pillow.

I had never seen someone so sad.

Jo hasn't been to school for a while. I hope she's okay.

Should I go to her house? Bring her flowers?

I shook my head.

'Stupid. You don't bring a girl flowers after that kind of date. You have stress sex.' I grinned at my thoughts.

Knock. Knock.

My moms head popped into my room from behind the door.

"Hey honey I made some pasta, want to come out?" I smiled. Thank god I have my mom. I swear, her food literally makes me forget everything when I'm stressed. Its probably because I'm a guy, and food is mainly my chick flicks and whipped cream.

"Heck yes I want to come out!" I exclaimed cheerfully and sprung off my bed.

She smiled and turned to leave.

I was about to follow her when my phone vibrated.

Text from Autumn:

'Can you meet me at the pond? I really want to talk to you.'

I groaned loudly.

The pond was a place that me and Autumn found when we were walking. It became our place from the moment we found it.

But now the thought of it made me want to eat and sleep all day.

What did she want?

Probably wanted to try to convince me to take her back.

'What for?'

No reply.

Little bitch knows I'm too curious to say no.

I walked downstairs and started lacing up my shoes.

Mom quickly came over and held her hands together on her stomach.

"Honey I thought you wanted pasta?" She said in a confused voice. "I have the plate ready and everything."

"Something came up. Autumn wants me to meet her somewhere. Sorry mom." I quick kissed her on the cheek and opened the door.

"I made meatballs too."

"Autumn can wait a little, right?" I shut the door and jogged over to the kitchen. Making sure to text Autumn to wait 10 minutes.

****

"Hey Damon."

I sighed and walked up to her, putting my cold hands in my pockets.

"Hey Autumn."

I saw her lip tremble, as if she was on the verge of sobbing.

I couldn't deny it, I missed her but also didn't.

It wasn't like Autumn was a slut that I was constantly trying to get rid of.

Autumn was different.

I still loved her.

It was weird to think that we had once thought about running away together.

"I miss you." she blurted softly. Obviously not trusting her voice to go louder then a whisper.

"I miss you too Lady." I whispered back. She looked up at me with teary eyes, recognizing my nickname. We used to watch Lady and the Tramp so much, one day we just started calling each other Lady and Tramp.

"Then why did you break up with me?" her voice ended in a sob and I couldn't help but feel so guilty.

I was causing her pain and heartbreak.

The two things I promised never to cause her.

I walked over to her and wrapped my arms around her, trying to tell her I still cared for her.

"I'm so sorry." I whispered in her ear.

I felt her shake and suck in short breathes between her sobs.

I inhaled her sweet scent that I couldn't help but miss and continue to breathe in, as if to save for later.

How could I have been so selfish?

Breaking up with Autumn was stupid and horrible.

And on top of that I went on a date with Jo hours later.

Not days, hours later.

God I'm such a dick.

I probably made her think that I was completely over her and didn't even care for her anymore.

Autumn deserves better. Much much better.

Autumn broke away and wiped her eyes with her sleeve. Her mascara was dripping steadily down her cheeks with her tears and her eyes were puffy plus super red.

Something I used to tease her about to make her happy when she was crying.

She crossed her arms and started kicking the ground with her feet.

"I just don't understand why you did it." she said.

"Honestly I don't either." I said truthfully. "It was a mistake. I thought that things were ending but I can see now that they never were even close to ending." it was totally true though. Me and Jo would never work out.

"What are you saying?" Autumn looked up at me, squeezing her sleeve, making her fingers turn white.

It was a mistake.

"Autumn, will you take me back?" I pleaded.

She covered her mouth with her hands and jumped into my arms, letting out a stuttering sigh.

"Is that a yes?" I laughed into her ear. I could hear her adorable giggle burst through her mouth.

"Yes! Yes, yes, yes. I million times yes!" I squeezed her and kissed the top of her forehead.
