Blair

That was what I was afraid of. He was bringing up the past and bringing it in front of us. Was he hoping that something would happen like before? What would that even look like?

And why was I even thinking about it?

“Well the past is supposed to stay in the past.”

“Does it have to? Sometimes revisiting something that worked so well before, could be a good thing. How could it be anything else?”

He was moving over to my side of the table and moved the table back so that he could sit next to me.

“Talking about it, makes me think about all of the times that we had together. We had a lot of good times and I miss that about us. We were good together, in all ways.”

The fact that he was so close and the words that he was talking, I wasn’t able to ignore him quite like I wanted to. I wanted to tell him that it would never happen again. I was with Dominic, but I couldn’t manage to get it out. He was staring at my lips and I wanted him to kiss me. We were there, talking about my boyfriend, and I was looking at him like I wanted that to be him. How had I forgotten how good we were together? We had been the power couple and what was wrong with doing that again?

“Yes, we were. But this isn’t the past anymore and we’re not in college.”

“No, we’ve both went on to make something of ourselves, just like we said we would do. We have done what we set out to do. What could be better than that?”

He was so close, inches from me and all I wanted was for him to move the last few inches and to take his lips against mine. It was all that I wanted, and he wasn’t making a move. That was the problem with Scott. He could never make the move.

“You’re right, we have both moved on and did what we set out to do. We made it. Yay.”

I started to lean back, because I knew there was no point. Whatever was between us so long ago, didn't exist anymore. We were different people and it was becoming clear that we wanted very different things. He wanted to play games and I was trying to move on with my life.

Before I get too far away, he stopped me and pulled me closer. I knew that I wanted this, but I still try to resist it. It seemed like the thing to do.

“What are you doing Scott?”

“What I should have done a long damn time ago. You don't know how much I have thought of you since you been gone Blair.”

“I didn't go anywhere Scott.”

“You didn't have to. You left me and that was far enough.”

I didn't really know what to say and I was thankful that I didn't have to say anything, because he finally did what needed to be done. His lips pressed against mine and all of the feelings from the last couple of weeks and from the last ten years came back.
