Begin Again

Should I?

I came back to the hospital right after I met Taylor on Starbucks, she looked so beautiful as always. It was so good to see her again, talk to her and hug her. I miss her so much. I don't even remember why we stopped talking after we solved the things between us, I think it was just life getting in the way, but now it decided that we should get in touch again and I'm going to enjoy the opportunity because life is way better when she's around.

- Hi, son! Where you were? Why are you smiling this big? - mom said when I entered the waiting room.

- Oh, nothing mom. I went to starbucks and ran into a friend, that's it. Is Kenna awake?

- Yes, she is.

- Can I go see her?

- Of course. I'm going to the cafeteria eat something, take care of her, ok?

- Ok, mother!

I was really excited to talk to Kenna, because she's my best friend and I tell her everything and right now I'm so happy about what just happened. I'm thinking about asking Taylor out tomorrow but I don't know if it would be so soon, that's why I need my little sister, she's younger but she gives amazing advises!]

- Hey, little sis. How are you feeling?

- I'm good. I mean, I'll have to stay here for a couple days and that sucks, but I'm good. - she smiled at me - Why are you so happy?

- I'm just happy that my beautiful little sister is ok. Can't I be happy for you?

- Yeah, sure. - she gave me that "let's pretend I believe you" look - where you went? Mom said you were out when I woke up.

- I went to starbucks to get a coffee - I smiled - and I ran into Taylor there. You know, the beautiful blond tall woman you ran off on friday?

- That's why you're smiling! I knew something happened! What she said? What you said? Tell me everything - She got so excited that I couldn't help but laugh

- Well, we hugged and talked for over one hour about a lot of stuff and she mentioned that she also saw you on friday but didn't went to say hi because she had the same thought you had. And I may have mentioned something about we going out sometime....

- WHAT? And what she said?

- She said she would love it and told me to call her.

- And are you going to call her?

- That's the thing, I don't know. I want to but wouldn't it be so soon?

- Yeah, maybe. But you're not going to stay here forever, brother. Maybe you could text her and ask her to have lunch with you tomorrow.

- Tomorrow?!!

- Yes. I'm not going anywhere or mom or dad, so you should go out with her.

- I don't know, Makena. I would look a little desperate, wouldn't I?

- Maybe, but what do you prefer looks desperate or lose a chance of approximation again?

- You right. I'm going to text her.

You said:

Hey, Tay! I was wondering if you'd like to have lunch with me tomorrow?

Tay Swift said:

Hey! I would love to! See you at 1pm?

You said:

Yes! I'll pick you up at 1. See you tomorrow!

Tay Swift said:

See ya!

- Ok, Kenna. It's done! I'm going out with her tomorrow!

- Yay! Where are you going to take her?

- I have no idea. You need to help me!

...

The next morning I woke up really early because I couldn't have a proper night of sleep. I couldn't stop thinking of her and about the fact that we are going out today. Obviously we are going out just as friends but it's a big deal for me. I really miss her and I want our friendship to work out, maybe in the future we have another chance as a couple. I don't know. The only thing I'm really sure of is that after all those years, after everything that happened in my life, she's the only constant in my heart and mind. I know that I have feelings for her, but I'm not sure what they are.

I got up and went to have breakfast with my dad since my mom was at the hospital with my sister. When we were done my father left to go see the ladies of this family. I cleaned everything up and went back to the room to get my phone and spend sometime doing lots of nothing. At 11am I went to take a shower so I could get ready to go pick Tay up. I changed into a par of jeans, a gray T-shirt, my converse and got my leather jacket. I checked me out on the mirror, got my car keys and left to pick her up around 12:50 it would be time enough to get at her place at 1pm.

I parked in front of her building and went inside, I greeted the doorman and asked him to call to her apartment and let her know that I was here. He told me she asked me to go upstairs because she was almost ready, so I did. I stopped on her front door and freezed, I was so nervous and I couldn't explain it. It took everything in me to knock her door.

- Hi! I'm so sorry I'm late. C'mon in! - she said smiling at me

- You're looking gorgeous, Tay. - I said and hugged her

- Thank you. You don't look bad yourself. - she wicked at me - I'll be right back, make yourself home, please.

- I will.

Her apartment looked the same I could remember, of course a few things had changed but in general it looked the same. Meredith, one of her cats, came to me and asked me to pet her, people say she doesn't like anyone but apparently she likes me. I stayed down stairs playing with the cats while Taylor was getting ready for our lunch.
