The One That Got Away💖

Part 3

Jennifer's POV
I'm driving to the lunch when I get a call from an unknown number.
"Hello," I say.
"Jen baby please --" then I hang up.
I got to the place and tried to get myself together to make it seem like nothing was happening. I get there to find only Keith and not Harry.
"Hey Jen," Keith said.
"Oh hey," I replied as I hugged him, "So where's Harry?"
"He called me and told me that he was on his way," Keith responded.
"Oh ok," I said.

Harry's POV
I have to pull myself together, their lives are probably going great and I can't ruin this lunch talking about my failed marriage. So I got there after about five minutes with a huge smile on my face.
"Keith! Jennifer!" I exclaimed.
"Hey Harry," they said.
"So what you guys been up to?" I asked.
"Well Nicole just dropped the kids off at school," Keith said.
Just after Keith said that I look over at Jennifer and she has a little frown on her face.
"Jen, are you okay?" I asked as Keith looked concerned.
"Umm... yeah I'm fine," Jen said oddly.
"No you're not," I responded, "Jennifer Lynn Lopez, what is wrong?"

Jennifer's POV
Am I supposed to tell them? Should I tell them? They both seem really concerned and there going to be on the panel with me and we're going to be traveling from city to city they might as well be my family.
"Well," I said, "my relationship isn't going so well."
"With Alex?" Keith and Harry asked.
"Yeah," I responded.
"What happened?" Harry asked.
"He's doing drugs again," I said, "I found him drugged up passed out on the couch with beer and popcorn." I started to tear up a bit.
"Oh no," Keith said.
Harry's POV
My life wasn't going well either but I was super concerned about Jennifer. I mean here you have this beautiful gorgeous lady that was lied to and sitting here about to cry. Gosh if I was with her I would've treated her right. But I can't tell her that.
"So Harry what about you?" Keith asked.
"Well my I'm filing for divorce," I said.
"Oh my gosh," Jen said, "why?"
"I found her in bed with another guy," I responded.
"Yikes!" Keith said.
"So Keith I'm guessing your marriage is going perfectly fine obviously," I said.
Jen and I laughed.
"Well ha um... yeah," Keith said.
Jennifer's POV
I can't believe Harry is going through a break-up right now. Is this supposed to be a sign. Am I supposed to say something to him about it?
Keith's POV
I could sense some sort of tension between Jen and Harry so I had to do something to leave them alone together. So I pulled out my phone and pretended to get a text from Nicole.
"Oh dang it guys," I said as I pulled out my phone.
"What is it," Jennifer asked.
"Nicole texted me and she needs help with the baby stuff," I said.
"But you don't have a baby," Jen said.
"Yeah I know," I responded.
Jennifer's POV
Oh my gosh this is so awkward. I hate Keith, I guess he's just trying to help us. I wonder what Harry thinks about this. Is he going to come up with an excuse, is he going to leave.
Harry's POV
Oh my god, I'm sitting next to the most beautiful woman in the world and I don't know what to say.
"I think we both know what Keith was trying to do," I said.
"Haha yeah," Jen replied.
"Well I have to go now, I guess," I said.
"Ok then," I said.
Oh no, what did I just do? I just missed my chance with Jen. God I'm so stupid.
Jennifer's POV
Well great, he's gone now. I wish he would've stayed and we would've gotten to know each other a little better. I think I might like him just a bit.

The next morning...

Harry's POV
So back to work again I guess. Oh my lord it's going to be really awkward around Jen. Keith is also probably going to think that something happened when in reality, nothing did.

Jennifer's POV
I really don't feel like seeing Harry today but I have to. Meeting Keith would be awkward because obviously he was expecting something to happen and it didn't.
I walk into the studio and the only judge there was Harry.
