Random Imagines

Hello Again

I stared at Robin for a second, fighting back tears. No agent has ever been like Robin is; we are like family. I looked back at Andrew and his friends and I thought of how we could not have all that we wanted back then. Life happened, dreams came true, only not all of them. It was not possible anyway; it was supposed to be only one dream coming true and I chose the path where I am now. I never expected our paths crossing again, I thought I lost my chance.

Robin is right, I have to do this.

"Okay, I'll go!" Robin smiled widely and I took a deep breath before I stood up and made my way across the cafeteria. Halfway there, I froze again and went back to our table, "no, I was wrong, I can't."

"Jo, you got this! Whatever happened between you two, I don't think it'll get in the way, am I wrong?"

I shook my head no and repeated my steps. This time, I walked all the way to their table and before I could even get there, Andrew stood up heading to the bathroom area. He got stuck when his gaze crossed mine. His smile was timeless, yet a little surprise escaped from his expression.

"Jo?" The second he said that, Sean, T.J., and Katy looked back at me. The rest of his friends looked a little confused.

"Oh my God, Jo! What are you doing here?" T.J. almost yelled as he approached with his arms wide open. We hugged, but my attention was still on Andrew.

"Hello! Long time no see, wow! It's really been long, huh!" I said, greeting T.J., Sean, and Katy. Andrew was really just there, motionless.

"I gotta say, I've watched everything you've been on, fan number one since your community theater days, you're amazing!" T.J. exclaimed quite exited.

"Yeah, you've been! I remember our daily breakfast talk at work," I giggled and looked at Andrew, "and what are you guys doing here?" I asked.

"Um... we're on a cross country road trip," Sean answered.

"Oh, nice! And—"

"Hi," Andrew finally said.

"Hi," I said.

"What are you doing here? I thought you were in L.A." Andrew asked.

"Well, I have a couple of auditions and an interview at a late night show, with Jimmy Fallon."

"Wow! What?" T.J. exclaimed.

"Oh my God, Jo! You're killing it!" Katy said, all excited.

"Congrats! That sounds huge!" Sean said.

"Well it's with a couple of cast mates, it's not as huge as a solo interview," I said giggling nervously.

"It's still huge, Jo! You've been huge since you left." He sounded a little hurt, and I went back to that day I had to say goodbye. "You were meant for this."

"Um, I-uh thanks, Andy."

"So, are you joining us, this is our whole crew, well sorta," Sean interrupted just in time.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I am actually here with my agent, I can't right now, I was actually heading to the bathroom."

"I was too, now that you say that," Andrew said, giggling, "and how about when you finish your meeting you come join us? If you have time of course."
