I stayed after practice last night. Something kept me walking around the place... until I ran into you.
You were all silly jokes and no smiles, as always, pouring drinks to strangers with cute voices. He was there too but that didn't catch my attention.
We kept looking at each other like we had something to say, yet the words that came out of our mouths were insignificant. You told me how you were going home after work because she was making dinner or something I don't remember exactly and our eyes met a few more times in the last couple of minutes.
You closed the register and I put on my coat and while we walked outside you mumbled some complaint but the gestures of your hands distracted me so I couldn't hear. There was a brief pause when we got to the door and then you sighed: "There she is..."
You kissed both of my cheeks. I sighed: "Oh well..." and resented I turned and walked away under the rain without fear.
It was all blurry in my head, a thousand thoughts crossed my mind but I kept walking.
One last time I looked back to see she was turning her back on me and then I met your eyes again for one brief moment before I turned around the corner.
Back to my blurry mind...No...Wait.
Someone rushed behind me and grabbed my hand begging me to run as fast as I could.
It was you. You came back to me. Rushed back to me and we began to run.
Crossing streets, in between traffic I almost got run over a hundred times but you pulled me towards you and held me close so I could catch up with you who were a lot faster than me. We ran across the Church Square and finally made a right into a little alley close to my house. We were both breathless. And I tried to express my surprise but you softly touched my lips with your index. We held eachothers hands and while I kissed yours, you kissed mine...Oh how much I missed your hands. I never wanted to let go. We sat on the sidewalk with our hands still intertwined and with a whisper you promised never to let me go again because: "If we weren't meant to be then howcome our hands fitted so perfectly together?"
