*Serenitys pov*
I felt a tap on my shoulder and as I turned around I met the eyes of Mason
"Hey serenity long time no see" I just stared then I was able to force out a smile
"Mason hey! How've you been?" It took everything in me to get those 5 words out. He tilted his head and smiled at me ... that smile that always made my heart race the smile that I fell in love with.
"I'm great! Just working and hanging out, what's new with you? I see you got yourself a new job"
"I only do this some nights I'm still working at the book store as well." He looked at me with all the curiosity in the world. I knew I looked different from the last time he saw me. I cut off my hair and dyed it 2 weeks after we broke up and I pierced my lip not long after I had also lost a few pounds so I would look the part of my job. But him? He looked exactly the same his short blond hair always looked messy but I knew he spent 20 minutes on it to make it look that way. He was a little bit more muscular but he was still slim, wearing his usual black skinny jeans and a flannel... the flannel I bought him.
"You look good serenity I'm glad to see you broke out of your shell"
"Yeah that's what having your heart ripped out does to you." I panicked right after I said that ... how could I be so stupid! I looked up and saw that mason had looked away and saw ... sadness? In his eyes. He knew he hurt me the day he left he just never cared.
"How's Chelsea.?" He looked at me and scowled
"She's fine. She's uh still working at Safeway." I couldn't tell if he looked happy or not, I decided I wasn't going to let him knock me off my game.
"Well it was really nice seeing you but I got clients to see and have to start getting through the karaoke list, sometimes they request to sing duets with me."
"Oh uh alright... I'll uh see you around" he ran his hand through his hair and looked at the ground. I turned back towards chyanne who was shamelessly flirting with Terry
"Aye! Can I see the sign up list miss flirts a lot ... hey Terry" Chyanne blushes and hands me the list Terry just smirks at the both of us. Terry is a good looking guy darker skin, short black hair, nice smile and hazel eyes.
"Hey troublemaker what are you gonna sing tonight?"
"Guess you'll have to stick around and see huh?" He laughed.
"Yeah guess so" I looked through the list and saw a lot of the usual singers a few new ... and at the bottom of the list Mason. I looked up and saw him sitting at a table drinking a beer, he knew he could request to sing with me. What is his game? Anger has now replaced my sadness... who does he think he is? I had to tell myself to remain calm ... if he wants to play games then fine ... we'll play. I make my way back up to the stage
"Alright guys we're gonna switch it up a bit and start at the bottom of the list!" Masons head shot up and met my eyes. I looked at the list again
"It seems that a Mr. Mason Steele wants to sing a duet... get up here Mason!" He looked nervous but it was quickly replaced with courage and determination. I looked at Chy at the bar she looked pissed and confused at the same time. I saw her mouth the words "what the hell are you doing?!" I just looked back at mason who was finally up on the stage, he looked at me with a determination and a smirk ... dick.
"Alright Mason, what do you wanna sing?" And without missing a heart beat he looked at me and said
"Easy I want to sing 'Make you feel my love' by Adele" my heart almost fell out of my ass. He's really going to fucking do this to me? That was the very first song I ever sang to mason right after we moved in together.
*FLASH BACK*
It was pouring outside and mason and I had just went out and bought a dresser for us for our tiny apartment.
"Are you sure you don't want help baby?" I chuckle as mason struggles to put some pieces together.
"No girl I said I got it" He was trying so hard to impress me... and show he was "manly" I roll my eyes and bend down and kiss his cheek
"Alright tough guy I'm gonna make us a drink" I went into the kitchen and made us vodka and orange juice
"Here you go handsome"
"Thank you gorgeous" I bent down and gave him a little kiss. We spent over half the night putting that dresser together and once he was finally done he laid on his back on the bed
"Could that have been any harder?!" I chuckle and straddle over him
"It would have been easier if you read the instructions" He just glared which made me laugh
"You're so beautiful serenity" He pushed my hair behind my ear and I smiled just the 'Make you feel my love' came on and I couldn't help but sing along the whole time I never broke eye contact with my beautiful boyfriend and after it ended I wiped a tear off his face and kissed him a kiss so full of love and passion.
"I love you so much"
"I love you too"
*END FLASH BACK*
After that night every time mason was sad or we'd get in a really bad fight I'd sing that song to him and we'd be okay. After our breakup I've never been able to listen to it without bursting into tears.
"Alright Adele it is" the song started and mason looked at me and started us off. The whole song as we sang back and forth we never broke contact. Tears were threatening to spill from my eyes. I was able to make it through the whole song barely keeping it together.
"Alright thank you Mason! Let's give him a round of applause!" Mason stepped down and walked back to his table.
"Next we have Michelle singing 'Body like a back road'" I handed Michelle the mic and walked off stage I ran out the back door into the cool air. Gasping, sobbing uncontrollably I couldn't make them stop suddenly I heard the back door open
"I'm fine chyanne go back inside "
"It's not chyanne" Mason. I turned
"God what do you want!" I wiped away my tears
"I wanted to make sure you were okay."
"Okay? You wanted to make sure I was okay?" I started laughing as if I was insane
"No mason okay I'm not okay! That was cruel even for you! You knew exactly what you were doing and again didn't care how it would effect me!" He just stared
" why would you do that to me?! Haven't you hurt me enough? Why don't you just disappear like you did a year ago!" I tried to storm past him but he grabbed my wrist.
"Serenity... I've thought about you every day for a year I wanted to call but I was afraid you'd react well the way you are... I miss you so much and I know I'm an idiot" he blurted it all out at once. I ripped my arm free and looked at him.
"You're to late for apologizes mason. I've finally put myself back together after what you did to me ... you don't get to come back and hurt me again." And with that I walked back into the club leaving mason silent in the middle of the sidewalk.
