โnot intentionallyโฆbut yeah- i guess i was. but technically i rank in that category too; once youโve hit thirty, the junk is unforgiving.โ lily had a hard time reading him when he kept averting his attention away from her. when they had broke offโฆwhatever it was that they had over the summer, lily didnโt think much of it. from the get-go lily knew it wasnโt something that was going to last long when the roots of london ground didnโt have any sort of grip on him. it was something she prepared herself for when they had started to talk, and it was something that was good for her at the time getting out of a toxic five year relationship not long before he came along. but seeing him in person for the first time sent an aching sensation through her when their breakup wasnโt in person. and maybe thatโs why they didnโt have any contact after they came to a decision to end things; it would just make things complicated- but never did lily take their lack of contact to heart. she just thought it was life, and their lives were continuing to move with little time to be able to be able to sidetrack.ย โis that so? well, if this fails, we can see if a police officer can point us in the right direction of deep fried, doughy deliciousness.โ at the mention of the angry mob, she felt her cheek turn a shade of crimson. the blonde didnโt dare look- even if he may have been teasing her and no one was actually looking at them. instead she simply murmured a soft โstopโ, her shoulder sending itself gently into him just below his bicep where it had met naturally.ย โi didnโt cut in front of all these people to just say hello.โ she answered, trying to suppress a smile by pursing her lips together- which could have also gave off the impression that she was embarrassed still by her impulsive move earlier. picking up the tray with one hand as it was placed down on the counter, she turned to him and caught his gaze targeted at a small table in the counter.ย โcโmon.โ she took his hand into her free one, guiding him where he had been looking. โi didnโt know you were back in LA. i thought youโd put your foot down on ever coming back to this city after being back home in massachusetts for so long.โ
โaw, come on. youโre just being modest. you look great and you know it.โ their end had been inevitable, of course, all factors including distance considered. with their busy schedules, it was barely possible to keep up with someone in the same city, let alone a different country. still, ever the optimist, heโd let himself believe that somehow they might find a way to make it work. when theyโd reached the inevitable point of parting ways, heโd accepted it. and while it had stung, he figured it would eventually dull before slithering away entirely. but seeing her again, and that too without any warning, it brought it back. and suddenly he couldnโt remember why they hadnโt found a way to make it work.ย โweโre gonna go all over this city till we find the right one, even if itโs one without sprinkles. the sacrifices i make, i swear,โ he chuckled, shaking his head at her suggestion. he turned his attention back to the people in line, most of them tapping away at their phones while the line inched forward painfully slow. rubbing at his arm with a mock hurt expression, he let his mouth fall open in horror.ย โouch, youโre gonna send me to the hospital with those strong shoulders. youโre lucky i have all this muscle protecting me,โ he rolls his eyes, face stretching out into a wide grin.ย โso you cut for the donut, not for me. you know what? i can respect that. iโd cut a line for a donut,โ he shrugs, still comfortably playful just being with her. despite the time that had passed, it felt natural. he let his hand cup hers lightly, following in the direction of the table heโd been eyeing. he quickly pulled out her chair for her to sit on before taking his own across the table, leaning back comfortably with his cup of coffee cradled between his palms.ย โyeah, i know. it still doesnโt really feel like home here. but weโre doing some renovations back at the boston house so i figured i might as well bring dodge and spend a little time here. thereโs some movie talk iโm not really supposed to talk about yet, they might need me for some filming. you know how it is,โ he shrugged, smiling a little while fiddling with the cup between his hands.ย โwhat about you? no more london?โย
