After Rylan drops me off at the cabin because I declined dinner with his family, I sit on the couch and decide to torture myself by plugging in the old slide machine and watching pictures of us flicker across the wall.
Our kiss in the car was awesome. If it hadnât been for Fisher, I probably would have begged Rylan to take me right there on the side of the road. What does that say about me?
Itâs like the sexual spark between us cannot die even if weâve ended our relationship. I have to keep reminding myself that after this wedding is over, heâll be returning to Chicago and Iâll stay here. Nothing has really changed.
I go through all the pictures, but I still think we need more so I pull out my laptop and go to my pictures. Specifically, my sophomore year at UCLA.
After high school, Rylan and I decided to end our relationship because I didnât get a scholarship to Stanford. We knew the distance would be too hard, and we didnât want one of us to ruin what had been a good relationship by being tempted to do something stupid, or for neglecting the other while we were both pursuing our dreams. Even though we broke up, I think we thought we might find our way back into each otherâs lives whenever life allowed.
So after the summer of senior year, we went our separate ways. Unfortunately, soccer kept us so busy, I didnât see Rylan again in person until my sophomore year of college.
I was in the Laundromat, washing my clothes and studying at the same time, when a loud group of guys came in with a huge bag of clothes. Some of them lifted the lids of the washers while three went to the machine that sold detergent and one went to Polly, the attendant, and asked to change in cash for quarters. I glanced up but quickly went back to my studies.
Until a guy came and sat next to me at the table. I didnât glance in his direction, keeping my eyes trained on my textbook.
âHey, Iâm Josh.â
His voice was so close, I glanced up and nodded. âThatâs nice.â âOkay.â He leaned back and stretched out his legs.
That was when I caught sight of the indent on his shins from shin pads. My eyes traveled along the floor, and sure enough, all of them had indents on their shins from shin pads. They all wore red shorts and my stomach dropped. Out of all the Laundromats in this city, he picked this one?
I slammed my book and tucked it in my backpack, which made me look at the guy who was smiling at me.
âYou look familiar,â Josh said.
Not sure why. I doubted the guy went to the womenâs soccer games when we played Stanford.
On the days when Rylan was playing down here, I steered clear of the stadium, but today Iâd gone to the game, blending in with the student body just to see him as up close as I could get.
