"I don't know.." Selena's mouth fell open as she dropped her fork as she stood up. "Wait Selena..." he grabbed her hand as she yanked it back. "What the hell do you think this is? Abel I'm not playing these games. I'm not Bella, alright? You do not invite me here because you want your dick wet." Abel was confused. "Whoa, whoa.. I—" Selena cut him off. "I'm not finished. Either you want me and I mean all of me—" She motioned at herself with her finger. "—or you don't. There's no in between" Abel sighed. "Selena, I'm sorry..." he looked at her with a pleading look. She looked at him with a struggling angry look before bursting into laughter. Abel was confused. "I was joking silly" he rolled his eyes as he started laughing. "Some things just never change. You're always joking."
Selena's POV
It was a little disappointing that he said he didn't know about giving us a second chance but I can understand. If I can't have him as a lover I at least want his friendship. I can't lose him completely. Life sucks without him. Seeing that gorgeous smile. Hearing that soft voice of his. I just can't go another year without him. I'll settle for whatever, just as long as he's in my life.
Abel and Selena finished eating. "Wow it's been so long that I forgot how much of an amazing cook you can be." She sat back as she looked at him. "I try to go all out for you." Abel always tries to go all out for her. He feels the need to go even harder though he had mixed feelings about whether if he wanted her back as his girlfriend or friend. "Abel you don't have to go all out for me. You being you is more than enough for me. I'd jump through hula hoops for you" both Abel and Selena stared at each other for about 5 seconds before bursting into laughter. "What the hell does that even mean?" He was laughing as she was. "Me saying I'd do anything for you. If that means doing the most weirdest thing or saying the most weirdest thing then so be it." Selena smiled as she placed her hand against his cheek as she massaged it.
Abel's POV
Whatever it is that Selena is trying to do, its working. I know I missed her but not like this. It feels as if we haven't gone 2 years without speaking, haven't broke up... One of the things I love about her is that she knows how to make me feel comfortable. I can be awkward sometimes but so can she. Our vibe is like one in the same.
"So what are your plans for Christmas?" Abel asked her. "Be with family and friends for the most part. Relaxing. Eating for sure" he chuckled knowing how much she loves to eat. "I figured. And I haven't thought about it. Probably the same" he shrugged. they were seated on the couch watching Christmas movies. "Would you say yes to an early Christmas present?" Selena looked at Abel as he looked at her. "What do you mean?" He asked her as she leaned forward taking two tickets from out of her purse. "What's that?" He asked as she handed him two tickets to see Toronto Raptors vs. Dallas Mavericks. "I bought these tickets the moment I read your text.." Abel stared at the tickets for a few seconds before standing up with his arms opened. She stood up and hugged him feeling his arms wrap around her waist.
"Selena this is unnecessary. You didn't have to do this.. What if I didn't accept?" He held her still but looked back a little so that he could read her face. "I would just go with Julius" she tilted her head to the side as a cute smile formed on her face. "Don't worry, I wouldn't decline it" he smiled. "Oh I know" she said before kissing his nose. "Why my nose and not my lips?" Selena looked down at his lips seeing the smile form on his face. She wanted to kiss him badly but she didn't want to lead herself on since he said he wasn't sure if he loved her enough to give them a second chance. "Because your nose won't hurt me. If I kiss your lips I would be so confused since you don't know how if you love me enough to give us a second chance...." she stared back in his eyes. "Oh... understandable"
"So when can I see you again? I don't want to wait to see you when we go to the game" Abel asked her as it was already late and Raquelle was outside waiting. "How about before I leave to Kenya." Abel was impressed. "You're going to Kenya?" She nodded "Yes. Me and Raquelle. I leave tomorrow night". "Well can I be the one to take you to the airport." A smile formed on her face as she spoke softly "I'd love that Abel."
