Piper's POV
I arrived at Nathan's house taking the keys out the ignition. So many thoughts went through my head.

Who was going to be there? Were they going to make fun of me? Is Nathan going to try anything on me?

My thoughts were interrupted as I heard a tiny knock on my window. I saw Nathan grinning from the outside as I unlocked my car door. "Well shit. Are you gonna come in or..?" I hesitatingly stepped out of the car closing the car door slowly behind me. "Hey." He furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. "Why so awkward?" I trailed behind him as he unlocked his doorknob. "Wheres everyone?" I questioned looking around his fairly modernized home. He came from wealthy parents like me so he understood me. At least when we were together and still dating.

"I didn't invite anyone else." I began to panic as I looked around. "What? Why?" He chuckled as he grabbed my hand sitting me on the couch. "I knew if I said i just wanted you to be here, I would've gotten a different response so in order for you to say yes, I lied and said more people were gonna be here." I nodded my head still confused. "Are you mad?" I shook my head no crossing my fingers together. Another habit I have when i'm anxious.

He let out an awkward sigh before continuing again. "I really just wanted to talk about us." I rolled my eyes coming back to my senses. "There is no us anymore Nathan. We're done. Haven't we been over this already? This is old news." He sighed deeply scratching the back of his head. "Give me one good ass reason why you wouldn't want me back. Or us back." I licked my lips getting ready to name all the reasons. "You're a liar, a manipulator, you tried drawing me in, and then broke my heart. Twice. You-"

"Okay I get it, damn." I rose an eyebrow getting ready to name more. "Before you continue, I have no more apologies left but maybe I can win you back a different way?" I rolled my eyes crossing my legs. "And how is that?" He gently took my hand standing me up. I followed him into the kitchen as he grabbed a book of a shelf. "You might think this is the gayest shit ever. But, I wrote poems about you." I wrinkled my eyebrows in uncertainty. "What?" He looked at me before turning a few pages. "Ever since I stopped you in the hallway a few days ago. I kept reminiscing about the days we used to have. Do you mind if I recite one?" I shook my head confused as to why he would ever have enough brain power to even write a sentence.

"Piper. I couldn't even began to tell you about how I felt about this one. Her golden brown hair flowed in the wind...her hollywood smile that stretched from ear to ear. Her average yet piercing hazel eyes. Could I even began to tell you about her? From her elegance to her grace. Almost unearthly, unreal. Piper."

Not going to lie. I was shocked. He actually wrote a meaningful thoughtful poem, all about me. "I don't know what to say." I was completely speechless. Who would've thought, Nathan. Star quarterback Nathan would ever write a poem about me. His forgotten ex.

"I just missed you. A lot. I know it doesn't seem like it, but I do. I know I can be a fucking ass when Im around my friends but forget about all that. This is me. The real Nathan." I quietly inhaled breathing in the smell of his axe fragrance. "I know you miss me too. All the fun memories we have, all the inside jokes. We'll always come back to each other. Almost as if we're meant for one another." That was it. Nathan was drawing me into his same tendencies. A strategy he used for years when he would cheat on me. Somehow I always would go back, and fall into his trap. Over, and over again.

I felt his soft plump lips against mine as I leaned my back against the counter top. Something wouldn't let me let go. It was almost as if I was attached to him. Literally. I felt him let go of the book as his hands wrapped against my waist. "Classic." Claps came from the end of the living room as I quickly unattached myself from Nathan's lips. It was Jacob. Unable to tell how he got in, I stood there shocked.
