Chapter sixteen

Steven

Josie kept thinking she could get farther and farther away from Steven, but he knew his strides had him walking at a normal pace while she rushed. He kept up behind her but did not want to risk being slapped, which meant keeping a distance slightly more than arm's length away. Steven realized he was not paying enough attention when the large door slammed in his face. He walked to his car feeling mildly defeated and then realized his keys were still inside her place. A warm and winning feeling fell over him.

He strode back to the door and knocked hard, "Josie. I kind of can't leave. You have my keys." Steven felt like he had won when the door whipped open. The next thing he knew, his keys were tossed up high in the air just a bit behind him. He reached for them and caught them as he saw the door close again and heard a lock click. He debated trying to get her to open the door again, but he realized the conversation was a lost cause for the day.

There were a few ways he always won Josie back after a fight while they were growing up. He would buy her chocolates. He would take her shopping for her favorite clothes. He would take her to the movies. He would then watch those movies with her. He enjoyed watching her face contort with cheesy or horrific scenes, and he was always taken aback when she cried during the sad moments, mostly the dogs, kids, and old people. Something so simple about being with her seemed to make their fights melt away. The problem with that thought process was that she wanted nothing to do with him.

He spent time digging through his mind and decided to do what he did after their post-prom fight. He bought her three dozen red, yellow, and pink roses and had them delivered to her. He wanted to put the exact words from prom on there, knowing it would spark that memory for her too, so he asked the florist to write out a note that said, "Roses are red, violets are blue, you stole my heart, let me steal yours too." Granted, in high school, he wrote it to try to steal back her attention more than her heart. She had been so mad that she started spending time with other guy friends and people in general, and it got under his skin. He always told her she was the only one who truly knew his heart, so she was the only one who could steal it.

Now, he wanted to steal hers back.

The thought behind it made sense to him. He knew what the message was intended to do: to bring back every memory they made together, to get back all of the smiles and good moments. He knew that they both made terrible choices surrounding their son, but he was going to do whatever it took to rectify his mistakes.

Once he paid the florist, all that was left to do was sit and wait for her to get them.
