"You never have time for me anymore!!"

"What do you want from me Madison?? I'm fucking busy all of the time. I barely have time to sleep let alone make time for you. I will spend time with you when I can."

"So I should just sit here and wait for you to decide when I'm important enough to you?"

"You're the one who told me to live out my dream. Here I am doing it and  you're being a fucking selfish bitch about it. Just go home Maddy. This isn't working anymore"

"Madison?  Madison Connors?"

"Hmm? What? I'm sorry Dr. Clark I wasn't paying attention. What was the question?"

He looked at me disappointed and moved on to another student. SHIT!! For some reason Jon has been on my mind a lot lately. We haven't talked in 6 months and I miss him. He's been busy with wrestling shows and I try to go to shows when I can. I hated that his dream drove us apart. Ever since that fight our senior year nothing was ever the same. We broke up and it took a long time to become friends again. I still love him so much and wish I hadn't been so selfish and needy. I was just spoiled by always having him there. I looked at the clock and saw that class was ending. I packed up my bag and followed the rest of the students towards the exit

"Miss Connors  you know that 50% of your grade in this class is based on participation in group discussions. You need to start paying more attention or you won't get your degree this semester."

"I know Dr. Clark. I've just been preoccupied."

"Well, unoccupy yourself before I have to see you again next semester...and what a waste that would be."

Dr. Clark was the department head for the Social Worker students. I just need to pass this class to obtain my bachelor degree and I'm sitting here thinking about my past with Jon. My phone buzzed in my pocket and I pulled it out and looked at the text

Hey! I miss you Maddy!! Meet me for lunch? I have news!

I thought about it for a second. I really missed him too. And news!?! Wonder what it could be?

Yeah I'll meet you for lunch. Where?

Chipotle?

YES!! Be there in 20 minutes

I pulled up to Chipotle and saw him leaning against a pillar in the front smoking a cigarette. I hated his long hair. He had it losely pulled back and was wearing his blue jeans and teeshirt. I got out of the car and he threw the cigarette into the parking lot and quickly walked towards me with his arms open. I ran to him and jumped into his arms grinning. He held me tight and kissed my cheek. I never wanted to let go. It felt like I hadn't seen him in ages.

"Oh Maddy I missed you so much!"

"I missed you too. So much Jon. You have no idea. I was thinking about you today in class"

He pulled me back and smirked "You were huh?"

"Yes, but not like that you perv" I laughed while playfully slapping his chest.

We sat down and started eating. He was watching me, but then again I was kind of watching him too. He was nervous. Whatever he had to tell me must be pretty big because he doesn't usually act this way.

"What's this big news?"

"Can we finish eating first?"

I finished my burrito bowl and waited for him to finish his. We sat in silence for a minute before getting up and heading outside. He quickly lit up a cigarette and taking a long deep drag. I took it from him and took a drag and gave it back. His face when I did stuff like that always made me laugh. We walked over to a bench and sat down.
