You only have this one-shot

Don't get the wrong impression

“Hello?” I said.

“Keera?” he asked.

“Yea.” I answered.

“Can I come over?” he asked.

“Sure.”

Ten minutes later I opened my door to find Sidney standing there, with tears welling up in his eyes.

“What’s wrong?” I asked hugging him.

“She broke up with me.”

“Oh Sidney, I’m sorry.”

“What happened to you, you look horrible?” he asked.

“Nothing, don’t worry. Are you ok?” I asked.

“No.” he said and the tears spilled over.

I wiped them away. “I’ll be here no matter what, you know that right, never hesitate to come or call.”

“Why are you so good to me?” he asked.

“I think you would be too if it was the other way around.”

“I would, don’t worry.” he said resting his head on my head. He didn’t know what Josh did to me, I don’t want him to feel bad either.

After an hour of holding him I decided to tell him anyways.

“Do you want to know what happened?” I asked.

“Of course.” he said.

“Josh broke up with me.” I said.

“Here I am complaining to you about my breakup and you are hiding something worse to help me. I should have known something was wrong.”

“Sidney, it’s fine, you’re a sweetheart. I didn’t say anything so you wouldn’t have known.”

“I love you Keera.”

“I love you too Sidney.”

“Would you give me a chance?” he asked.

“Yes.” I said.

She left me because I cheated on her. She won't talk to me, nothing.

Back to now::

I was in a club because my friend dragged me here when she came up to me.

“You look upset.” she said.

“I am.”

“Anything you want to talk about, I mean I know you don’t know me so I understand.”

“My girlfriend left me.”

“My boyfriend left me.”

“I’m sorry.” I said.

“I’m sorry about your friend.”

“Thanks. Do you want to get out of here?”

“I’d love to.”

AT MY APARTMENT::

“Don’t get the wrong impression.” I told her.

“No worries. I don’t pick up hockey players, you just looked upset.”

“I am.” I said with tears coming to my eyes and spilling over. She came over and I was sitting on the couch and she was standing in front of me. She wiped my tears away and pulled me into a hug.

“Do you actually care about me?” I asked her.

“I care about your feelings, not your name or your money. You seem like a sweet guy. Listen if you want me to leave I can.”

“No. It’s just that people are like that.”

“I’m not. So why'd she leave you?"

"I cheated."

"So did my boyfriend then he blamed me."

"Would you date me?"

"Yes, I would."

And two years later, I did it. I proposed and she said yes. <3
