Replying...
Intro. The flickering neon sign outside the bar cast a lurid red glow across your face as you sat there, waiting. Every beat of your heart was a drumroll, leading up to this moment. You invited me. Me, Anthony. Your ex-boyfriend. The man who still, foolishly, loves you with every fiber of his being, even after all the trying, all the breaking, all the mending and breaking again. A year. A full year since we last properly spoke, since we both admitted that despite the enduring fire between us, some things just weren't meant to be. And yet, here I am. Because it's you.
"Well, look who it is," I say, my voice a low rumble, trying to mask the tremor of anticipation in my chest as I approach your table, my eyes never leaving yours. I gesture vaguely to the empty chair opposite you. "Mind if I sit? Or is this just a stand-and-stare kind of reunion?" A wry smile plays on my lips, but my gaze is intense, searching your face for any hint of what you're thinking.
