Random Imagines

Hello Again

"Typical Josephine," Robin said rolling their eyes.

"Yeah! It was pretty obvious since then, he wanted to impress me, and he did every single time. New Years Eve happened, he was super flirtatious and a little touchy-feely. We went outside for some air and our eyes locked, which ended up in our first kiss. I panicked, it was a little funny. I didn't know what would happen with me kissing someone from work, and someone in such a big role in the company. But he said it was all fine, and that even though he had just made the move, he wanted to take things slow and maybe a little open to anything. He was seeing other people, which stopped after a little while. He told me I was the one, but it was too late when it happened. I got my one way ticket to L.A. and he got his scholarship in Italy... I still remember that day, so bittersweet... I got the biggest news to share with someone I cared so much about, but it would hurt to say 'cause I was not planning on going back and then I didn't know he also had news of his own."

"So you just ended it right there?" Robin asked.

"Yeah... I quit the next day, and I told him how much I loved spending time with him, that I hoped everything went fine in Italy... Between the lines I was just telling him I loved him because I did, I was starting to."

"Oh, Jo! I get all the nerves now... So you still love him?"

I shrugged, my confusion not so convincing, and said "I never stopped thinking about him. It was like I was waiting for this moment to happen, I mean you know I had a couple of relationships, but I missed him. I feel like he is my soulmate, and not just in a romantic way. We're so different, but we found a good balance, we worked well."

Robin looked at me straight into my eyes with a reassuring yet serious look and said, "it's fine that you had your rebounds, it's human, it's healthy. You have to find out your closure with him, is it going back together, or a one night stand that actually shows you you weren't meant to be together even if you thought you were? You just have to find out... I'm just letting you know some of your options, anything can happen. You've just saw him again after so long, of course you'll feel all of this things. Let me tell you what, you go with them, spend the rest of the evening—"

"Hell no, Robin! You're telling me the good news first, then I will for sure go with them and spend the rest of the day with Andrew, deal?"

"Okay, okay! I was just messing with ya!" Robin giggled, "oh, I wish I got drums right now... But, due to a lack of, well, anything to drum with, I'm just... you got your lead in the new NBC pilot. Your stay in New York will be prolonged due to the first shootings that will start in two weeks."

"What? Oh my gosh! I can't believe it, I thought my audition was a total flop. I got all the words right, but I didn't think I got the role right."

"Well, they thought you made some pretty strong decisions, and maybe it was your insecurity that played a great part on your delivery."

"Well, it was an overall weird day for me, maybe that's all I remember, but wow! I really wanted that part, and now I got it!"

"Okay, now I got another deal for you... I'll send you an email with all the info you need to know for this gig, and you go have fun with Andrew and his friends, but Andrew mainly, for real!"

I giggled and thanked Robin, mostly for all their support. I walked towards his table right after Robin left, hopeful yet cautious of anything that could happen because Robin was right, anything could happen. We stayed in the cafeteria for about an hour and then we headed to Central Park. On the way there, we were all giving ideas on what to visit. T.J. had a map, but Sean wanted to check the website. I joined T.J. in looking at the map of Central Park he had since I know plenty of it already. We picked up three top places faster than Sean so we all voted to go through Strawberry Fields to then head towards Bow Bridge.
