TO BECOME YOURS!

MANDLA MORRIS!

THIRD PERSON.

the ex couple walk together, mackenize had her arms crossed over her chest. johnny with his hands in his pockets. this time, there was no awkward tension around them. just some silence. mackenzie liked it that way, that johnny didn't make things awkard or anything.

they continued to walk, making sure to stop each time they crossed the road. "what was our relationship like before?" johnny finally broke the silence making mackenzie look at him. they continued to walk, but slower this time.

"romantic and flirty. you know how usual relationships are. we had some movie nights, i borrowed your sweaters, we spent holidays together—" mackenzie responds, only to stop when johnny completely stops his walking.

mackenzie looks at him, ready to ask him what's wrong when she sees the look on his face. he looked really stressed, confused. his eyes stayed on the ground and not on mackenize's.

mackenize was really confused. johnny had fallen silent and she was awkwardly standing there and waiting for him to speak. finally, he cleared his throat and looked up at mackenzie. his eyes had started watering. mackenzie got more confused at his reaction.

"i remember," he shakily says, grabbing mackenzie's hands and she could feel him shaking. "i remember that night at the mall, and how you broke my heart there because i was still in love with you."

mackenzie's jaw dropped which made johnny want to talk more to her. "if it's possible, when i get my memories back, will you give our relationship another chance?" mackenzie nods her head. of course she wants to be with him once more.

"yeah, i want to." mackenzie holds his hands tightly and then let's go. she wraps her arms around his chest, since johnny was taller he wraps his arms around her shoulders.

"i think some part of me wants to tell you i like you too." he whispers and mackenzie chuckles, they hug tighter. both of them feeling at home and comfortable with each other.

they pull away with blush on their cheeks, they continue walking, but this time closer. their hands brushing each other sometimes. at the end of their walk and they return to johnny's house, mackenzie goes inside to take her backpack.

"johnny! i'm gonna go now." she calls out, since he had to use the bathroom. "wait!" his deep voice responds and mackenzie puts on her shoes but waits in front of the door.
