To: Liam

From: Abigail

Guess who showed up at my window last night?

You.

You did Liam.

Why?

Because you were bringing me flowers for Valentine's Day and you wanted to talk about what we never finished at that dinner.

You said you and Jasmine were going through some things.

More or less that you didn't want to be with her anymore but she did.

I don't care.

Yes I do.

No I don't.

Ugh.

You do this to me Liam.

Back to the point.

You gave me flowers and climbed through my window like the knight in shining armor that you're not.

Don't try to be either, because I'm trying to get over you remember?

You came inside my room and you sat down at my computer desk.

You handed me the flowers and cleared your throat.

I sat down on my bed and messed with my fingers.

I was not going to be the one who initiated the disastrous conversation because I knew it wasn't going to end well.

"I'm sorry Abigail." You said, refusing to meet my eye.

I stayed silent waiting for you to continue.

"I should never have done what I did. It was wrong on so many levels. But I want you to know I never cheated on you with Jasmine. We had fully broken up when I decided to get with her."

I looked down at my feet that rested on the floor.

I was sitting at the edge of my bed.

One of the many edges I'd been finding myself on lately.

"Okay." I managed to choke out.

"Okay? That's it?" You asked, probably stunned at my disinterest.

"What's done is done Liam. It's been months." I said, letting out a deep breath I didn't know I was holding in.

You laughed next.

You fucking laughed and I didn't know why.

"Yes it's been months and all I can think about is you Abby. You cloud my mind and take over my thoughts and I can't sleep at night because all I think about is what happened between us. I can't just forget you."

I'll admit. I'd been hoping you'd come back and say all of that. But the truth now is Liam, I maybe wanted all of that but at the same time I didn't.

You can't just come and go as you please.

You did something unforgivable.
