Chapter 1: Unexpected reunion
I was just fifteen when I fell in love!. He was eight-teen…but I didn’t care if he was a hundred years old, I would still love him no matter what!. It’s been two years sense I last saw Angel!. And I knew that he would look the same, even after two years!. I was sitting at the corner café on first and fifth when I saw him!. And I was right… He did look the same!. His eyes were the same shade of blue, his hair that same shade of jet black, and his mouth, nose, and everything else looked the same too my eyes!. I saw him sit across the café from me!. I pulled the menu up so that he wouldn’t see my face!. But he wouldn’t remember me…the girl who told him I love you!. Then he was gone, puff, vanished…!. He left without a trace, without saying good-bye!. As I told myself I was being silly, I put down my menu!. As I did this, I saw Sally (my best friend) making her way over to me!. When she got to the table, I saw that she was breathing heavy!.
“I-I know I’m late,” She said trying to catch her breath!. “But there was a lot of traffic!. S-So I ran here!. And I got on the subway, but of course it was crowded!” I chuckled as she sat down!. She threw her purse on the table and let out a large breath, and picked up her menu, and began to fan herself!. “Wow,” She let out suddenly!. “Man it’s a hot out isn’t it!?” Sally stopped fanning herself, opened her menu and looked down at it!. I looked over her head to get one more look at him, but saw that he wasn’t there!. I looked all over the café but couldn’t find him!. Maybe I just imagined him…I thought!.
“Hmph, am I going crazy or what!?” I asked myself!. Sally looked up from her menu; she hunched up her eyebrow as if confused!.
“What!?” I shook my head, and then the waiter walked over and took our order!. I sat there; now and then looking across the café hoping I would see him again!.
“So Natalie…how’s your brother doing!?” she asked while playing with her straw!.
“Huh!?” I asked not paying attention!. She sighed and took a sip of her diet coke!.
“How’s Jeff doing!?” She asked!. I combed my fingers threw my dark brown hair, and sighed!.
“Oh… I guess okay!. He really isn’t around that much anymore!. After Ginger died, his kind of been distant you know, not wanting to talk to me, or Mom…not even too Kevin,” I said!. “I mean it’s to be expected!. Ginger was his wife after all!.” I said looking up, and saw she was staring at me!.
“What!?” I asked irritated!.
“I just feel so bad for him you know!. I mean him and Ginger were married for only what, a year!.” I was surprised that she would say that!.
“Sally it doesn’t matter if they were married a few mouths none the less a year, marriage is marriage, and love is love!. How long were your parents married before your Mom died!?” I asked somewhat angry!. I saw her winch, and I knew I hurt her!. I took a deep breath trying to calm down!.
“Listen… I am sorry for what I said!. You know how I get when it comes to Jeff…!.” She sighed and then she looked at me with a huge grin on her face!.
“Your right I shouldn’t have said anything!.” She said still smiling at me!. We sat there in complete silence for what felt like hours more then minutes!. I looked at were Angel sat when he first arrived!. I finally was lucky; there he was sitting as if he just came fell down from heaven!. Looking so fair skinned and beautiful!. I couldn’t take my eyes off him!. And when Sally asked me what I was looking at!. I couldn’t help but say!.
“My Angel…” She gave me her “What” look, and then looked over her shoulder!. After a few second, she looked back at me and her eyes looked like they were about to pop out of her head!.
“Do you know that guy!?” She asked in a hyperactive kind of way!. I nodded my head and continued to stare at him!. Sally still had her mouth hanging open when the waiter came up with our food!.
“Are you alright Miss!?” The waiter asked kindly!. Sally blushed and croaked a “Yes!” What am I doing!? I thought!. I needed to stop, my feelings for him were in the past, and I needed to move on!. I painfully dragged my eyes down to my lap!. I grabbed my fork and began to eat my salad!.
“What’s his name!?” Sally asked before biting into her sandwich!. I jumped a little at her question!.
“Huh,” I said while blinking my eyes a few times!. She gave me “you heard me” look!. “Oh his name…it’s…it’s Angel!.” I said a little shy, and I had no idea why!.
“Well that makes sense…!. “She got up and I jumped up and grabbed her arm!. Then pulled her down her back down to her seat!.
“What the hell are you doing,” I asked in an anger whisper!. “Don’t you dare go over there!?” She smiled at me!. She got back up and started to pull me along with her, to the table he were he was sitting with a woman I hadn‘t noticed!. She had light blonde hair, bright green eyes, and was skinny…! I hated her…! I let go of her arm and ran back to the table, threw down my part of the bill and ran around the corner, hoping he didn‘t see me!. She walked up to the table and blurted out!.
“Hi, your Angel right!?” I looked over at them and saw him nod his head and he replied with a
“Yes!.” He said genteelly… Oh how I missed it!.
“Ha ha, I guess she does know you after all,” She looked back towards our table that was now empty!. “Huh, where’d she go!?” She asked!. He sighed, and stood up towering over her like a giant!. She looked at him with her mouth hanging open!.
“I’m sorry but, who are you and what are you talking about!?” He asked!. Sally blushed!. She picked at her shirt and smoothed out the wrinkles!.
“M-My friend…says she knows you…!.” She said still blushing!. He sighed again!.
“And who might your friend be!?” He asked sounding bored!. Sally clasped her heads together and squeezed tight!.
“H-Her name…!? Ummmmm…!.” Saying as if she forgot!. He pointed his index finger in the air and moved it left, to right, saying
“Tick, tock, tick, tock,” She looked back up at him, opened her mouth, but nothing came out!. “I don‘t have all day sweetie,” He said brushing his fingers there his hair!. “If ya got nothing to say, then go away!. He was being so rude to Sally…! He was really pissing me off! It was wrong for me to make her tell him it was me in the first place!. The girl that said I love you…but you never said it back!. I knew it was time to let myself be known!. I took a deep breath!. Alright it’s time to let him know it’s me!. I thought!. I stepped out of the shadows and walked over towards them!. He looked my way and his face turned chalk white!.
“Hi Angel, long time no see,” He looked at me up and down!. He cleared his throat and opened his mouth!. But couldn’t find the right words!. “How have ya been!?” I asked while he still searched for words to say!.
“N-Natalie!?” He asked speechless!. I nodded my head and chuckled!. “What!?” He asked with a scowl on his face!. I looked up at him and smiled!.
“Oh I’m just surprised that you remembered my name, that’s all!.” I chuckled again and looked over at Sally who was now staring at me surprised!. “Well it’s nice too seeing you again, Angel!. But Sally and I have to leave!. Come on Sally,” Sally stood there for a minute looking confused!. “Sally come on!” I said starting to feel anxious to get away!. When she didn’t move, I grabbed her arm and pulled her after me!. When were outside of the café, I let out the breath I had been holding for so long!. And when I let it out, I noticed at how fast my heart was beating!. It was so loud that I couldn’t hear anything but it’s speed!. As my heart slowed down, I heard Sally was screaming at me!.
“What the hell, Natalie! Who the hell was that guy!?” She tugged on my arm so hard that it felt like it was about to pop out of it’s socket!. I yanked my arm out of her grip and stomped toward the cross lane!. I pushed the button on the stop light and waited impatiently for the “red had” sign to turn to “walk“!. When it finally did, I didn’t go across!. I spun around and glared at Sally with so much anger, that it hurt to hold it in!. So I just had to let it out…!
“Sally, why did do that!” I screamed!. I felt tears burning the inside of my eyes lid!. But I wouldn’t let them fall, I wouldn’t cry!.
“I…,” She said!. I turned around fuming and walked across when she shouted, “I’m sorry!” I stopped; I looked back at her and saw she was crying!. I took a deep breath and took a step back towards her when everything went black!.
