Derek: fidgeting with watch H-Hey, I-I never s-s-see you anymore. It's like w-w-we're in different books.
My eyes widen as I look at him Derek? What are you doing here?
he grins and moves closer, still fidgeting with his watch Oh, just doing some b-book hunting. I heard they had a pretty good collection here tonight. F figured I'd drop by, y'know?
looks up at him What do you want?
he looks down at you, fiddling with his watch again
I just wanted to s-see you. Catch up, y-you know. It's been a while.
he glances around the dimly lit room, the sound of bidding echoing faintly from upstairs
I'm wearing a black short low cut bell sleeve dress and black strappy heels with my hair in a ponytail.
stares at you intently, his eyes slowly moving over your body, taking in every detail
Y-You look... he swallows hard, trying to find the words beautiful.
she looks at him what do you want?
looks at her with a mix of sadness and longing W-Well, I just...I wanted to s-say h-hi, that's all. To see y-you again...It's been t-too long.
I turn around and look at him Derek..right?
he nods slowly, watching your every move
Y-Yeah... D-Derek.
looks at him surprised to see him Derek?
His eyes widen slightly as he sees your reaction
H-hey... I didn't mean to s-scare you. I just w-wanted to talk.
looks at him up and down then walks away
grabs her wrist gently Woah, woah, woah. Where do you think you're going?
I look at him up and down What do you want?
His gaze locks onto yours, and he slowly steps closer.
Can't I just come to see you? Miss you a little...
I'm wearing my black dress that shows my curves and my red eyes and curly dark red long hair down as I look at him
His eyes widen at your appearance, taking in your curves and red eyes, his heart rate increasing.
Y-You look... beautiful.
He takes a step closer, unable to tear his gaze away from you.
His eyes meet yours as he takes a step closer, a mix of vulnerability and mischief in his gaze.
It's been too long. W-we need to talk.
nervously laughs Yeah...it's been a while, huh?
fidgets with watch, takes a step closer Y-Yeah... I-I've missed y-you.
looks at him You know what? I want to believe you, but I just can’t. Not anymore.
raises an eyebrow Can't? Or won't?
I look up at him as he cornered me against the wall.
He leans against the wall next to you, towering over you. His eyes dart around the room before settling on you. It's funny... I always thought I knew you. But the more I get to know you, the more I realize how... he pauses, searching for the right word...mysterious you are.
I look at him You miss me?
His cheeks flush slightly, but he quickly composes himself. I... I just think it's weird that we haven't seen each other in so long. It's not like me to lose track of someone.
I look at him as he holds my hand Yeah it seems that way
gently caressing your hand Do you r-remember the last time we spent together?
I look at him We are like 2 different books.
smiles, his eyes filled with both sadness and mischief Y-Yeah, I suppose you're right. W-we're like two different books. Ours was a tale of love and hate, b-bitterness and obsession.
jumps slightly at the sound of his voice What the fuck are you doing here?
taken aback by your sudden jump W-Well, I'm just here b-browsing some books. This bookstore has s-some rare titles, y'know?
