Finding Hope in Blue

"One day, maybe when I have settled down and had kids and own a house or something, I'll think about him and wonder. Wonder what we would have been like together, how drastically changed our lives could have been, if I would still be the same person. It's useless though. He's never going to see me in that light," I murmured lowly.

He was never going to want me. Or think of me. Or even wonder about me.

"Well, why don't you try? You're going to spend your whole life wondering and wishing and for what? Because you were 'too scared' to even try?" Raquelle said as she leaned back into her boyfriend.

It wasn't about being scared though. It was all Remington. Whether he was ready or not.

I opened my mouth to speak, but was cut off by the sharp sound of a glass door opening. Simultaneously, all our heads turn.

There stood in all his stupidly handsome glory was Remington Mars, dressed in a blue suit to match me.

"Ready to show the world that you're more than just my assistant?" he walked right up to me and offered a hand.

I placed mine in his. "More than ready. You better promote me after this, by the way."
