"But you are staying out here."

I cast a glance at Greyson over my shoulder as i followed Cody into the house. He just shrugged.

The door closed and Cody turned to face me. "What are you doing here?"

"I need to talk to you."

"There's nothing to talk about." He muttered, walking into the kitchen.

I followed him and stepped in front of him so he would stop.

"I'm sorry." I said.

"You sure seem that way." He spat.

"What else can I do!?" I yelled.

"Don't you think you've done enough!?" He towered over me.

"I'M SORRY!"

He was silent, not moving for a miunte. Finally he stood up straight and stepped back, running a hand through his hair and licking his lips.

"Do you even have an idea of what you did?" He asked after a while.

"I'm sorry." I said for the 3rd time.

"Are you?"

"Yes!"

He went silent again, staring at me as if studying my face.

"I loved you." He said.

"That's past tense." I pointed out. "Loved. You're referencing the past."

"I still do."

"I still love you, too. But what good is that going to do? You obviously have no intent on having anything to do with me anymore."

"How can I be sure that this won't happen again? If we were to try again, it could easily happen again. I can't be certain that you won't run off with him again the moment I trun my back." He narrowed his eyes.

"I swear it won't. It was a mistake i made and I regret it. How many times do I have to say i'm sorry for you to get it!?"

"How do you know I would try again just because you came here and aplogized!?"

"I don't know. I never said you would. I just thought it wouldn't hurt to apologize." I said flatly.

"So, what? You came here just to apologize!? And once you leave you're gonna go back and make out with him again?"

"I didn't make out with him! You know what, screw it. I don't even know why I tried." I spat, turning on my heels and walking away.

"Macy!"

"What!?"

"Don't. After we... Ended, I stopped talking to you because I... I couldn't... I can't... Forget it..." his voice cracked when he whispered forget it,  then turned and walked away from me, shaking his head. And, of course, burying his hands into his pockets.

Wow. That's a weird twist of events. He was yeling at me just a minute ago.

"So what do we do now?" I called after him.

He stopped and slowly turned around.

"I don't know, Macy. What do we do? What else could you do to possibly make it any worse than this?" He asked angrily. So, we're back to square one.

"I think there's only two options. We make up, or we never talk to each other again. Because, obviously, this whole situation is not working out too well."

"So, we become friends again?" He asked.

I shrugged. "If that's what you want."

"It's not." He said, walking towards me. "What I want is for us to be the way we were 3 months ago. But I don't know if that'll ever happen again."

"That's up to you. It's your choice weather or not it does. I'd put this whole thing behind me if you would."

"Would you?"

"I would."

He didn't even pause before putting his hands on my shoulders, leaning down and kissing me. It surprised me at first, Cody is usually extremely stubborn. I would have expected him to have thrown me out by now.

After he broke off, he stayed a few centimeteres from my face, staring me straight in the eyes.

"I love you."

"You see, that wasn't past tense. That means 'at this moment.' You're learning." I mocked him.

"Macy?" He laughed.

"What?"

"Shut up."
