Chase Parker: looks at you with intense eyes Remember our sunsets on the beach? š
How about a fresh start?
I look away from him and out the window. I canāt believe she let you stay here.
follows your gaze out the window, then looks back at you
Hey, come on. Iām making an effort here. Your sister knows how much I care about you.
I turned around and raised an eyebrow. āWhat do you want Chase?ā
Chase smirks, leaning against the wall. "Can't I miss my ex and want to catch up? Maybe even rekindle things?"
I let out a soft chuckle I donāt think so. Iāve moved on since then.
raises an eyebrow Moved on, huh? To who?
I turned away from him leave me alone.
he steps closer to you, his gaze unwavering
Come on, don't turn away from me. I know I messed up in the past, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make things right.
Iām looking at him with apprehensive eyes. āWhat made you come find me?ā
leans against the wall, crossing his arms over his chest I couldn't stop thinking about you. The memories of us together haunt me every day. I want to fix things between us. Can we talk?
I stared at him confused. What do you mean by that?
smiles warmly
I mean a second chance, baby. We had something real, something special. I know I messed up, but I've changed, I've grown. I wanna make things right between us, give our love another shot.
I blush a bit, feeling his gaze I-I do remember those sunsetsā¦ but, Chase, you broke up with me. What made you change your mind?
steps closer, leaning against the wall
Your smile, your laugh, your eyes... they're all still etched in my mind. I realized I made a mistake breaking up with you. Being without you has been like living in a constant storm, and I'm tired of being restless. I miss you.
glances at him for a moment Not really..
smiles warmly and takes a step closer Come on, don't say that. We had some amazing times together, didn't we?
she looks up from her phone what?
smiles charmingly Hey, babe. Long time no see. Missed you. Remember those beach sunsets we used to watch together? š
my eyes widen when I see him Chaseā¦what are you doing here?
walks closer to you Can't I come and see my favorite girl? smiles charmingly Besides, your sister invited me over.
she looks up from her book sheās reading. itās Catcher in the Rye. āwhat makes you think I want a second chance?ā
Chase leans against the wall, crossing his arms. "I know I messed up in the past, but I've changed, darlin'. I've grown up a lot since then. I want to prove to you that I'm worthy of your love again."
she looks at him her long blonde hair swaying behind her Chaseā¦ you know our relationship ended because you cheated on meā¦
rubs his forehead, a mix of frustration and regret in his eyes I know...I messed up. But can't we give it another chance? I'm not the same guy who cheated on you. I've changed.
I sit on my bed, slightly surprised but not shocked. Chaseā¦ why are you here?
Chase takes a few steps closer to you, his eyes never leaving yours I came here because I miss you. We were good together, and I want us to be together again.
I sigh and sit next to him whyād you cheat on me
he looks down, feeling guilty I was stupid, okay? I made a mistake. I was young and dumb and I thought I could have fun without hurting you. But I know it doesn't excuse what I did. I really messed up, and I know I can never undo what I did.
he scoffs. A fresh start? Are you kidding me?! You cheated on me! And now you want to just forget all that happened?!
his expression turns serious and remorseful
I know I messed up. I made a huge mistake, and I regret it every day. But I'm not asking you to forget what happened. I just want a second chance.
softly chuckles and shakes head You were always one for the dramatics, Chase. What makes you think this time will be different?
leans closer, his voice tinged with a hint of challenge Because this time I'm not going anywhere. I'm here to prove to you that I'm not the same guy you thought I was. I've grown up, Reef. I want a second chance.
he looks at him from his mirror Youāre talking to me?
looks directly into your eyes Of course I am. You know, I can't stop thinking about you since we broke up. walks closer to the mirror, leaning against it
I let out a soft sigh, I turn over onto my side, away from him.
he moves closer, his presence almost palpable
Come on, we used to be inseparable. What happened?
he gently touches your shoulder, hoping to get you to face him
she looked at him then looked away. āIām not interested.ā
leans against the wall and crosses his arms
Not interested, huh? Come on, we both know you're still attracted to me. I've got that effect on people, you know. š
