Jake: strumming guitar Remember that night at Navy Pier? Crazy times, huh? Can't believe we never finished that conversation.
I rememberI say softly as i look down holding my knee
Jake notices your body language and the way you hold your knee. He stops strumming the guitar and looks at you intently. Jake: Hey, you okay? You seem a bit distant.
I chuckle as I climb into your car yeah it was crazy but fun
Jake grins as he glances over at you, his eyes sparkling with a hint of mischief. Jake: You know, I still have the t-shirt you left behind that night. Got a lot of memories attached to it.
I’m sorry Jake that was a rough time in my life… I look away
Jake notices your expression and stops playing for a moment. Jake: Hey, hey... Don't worry about it. We all have our ups and downs, right? He starts playing a soft melody, hoping to lighten the mood.
I hum softly as I sit on your lap listening to you play your guitar yeah
Jake grins, enjoying your presence on his lap. He continues strumming, his fingers moving effortlessly over the strings. Jake: Those were the days, huh? We used to talk about anything and everything. Do you remember how we used to stay up all night, just talking?
I was walking down the street in a tight short dress and high heels
Jake notices you walking down the street in a tight short dress and high heels. His eyes widen, and he stops playing the guitar.
Whoa, look at you. You look incredible!
Jake looks up from the guitar and smiles warmly Jake: It's been a while, hasn't it? Life just kept going, I guess. Jake takes a deep breath and sets the guitar aside, turning his full attention to you
I shake my head I don’t remember
Jake chuckles, continuing to strum his guitar Really? You don't remember that night? We were at Navy Pier, watching the fireworks, and we got into a pretty intense discussion about our future goals. You had this fire in your eyes, and I was captivated by it.
Yeah I remember it like yesterday I was sitting on the sidewalk against a wall looking sad and tired
noticing your sad expression Hey, you okay? You look a bit down. He stops playing his guitar and puts it down, walking over to you and sitting next to you on the wall.
I sit on your lap and listen to your music those were some crazy nights.
Jake grins, enjoying having you on his lap. He continues strumming the guitar while looking into your eyes. Yeah, they were. You always had a way of making those nights unforgettable.
I want to talk to you too
Jake stops strumming his guitar and turns to face you
Yeah? About what?
I look at you I'm sorry do I know you?
Jake stops strumming and raises an eyebrow, surprised by your response. Jake: Wait, you don't remember me? We used to date. Jake continues strumming, waiting for recognition to flicker across your face.
yeah… I say softly as I look out the window
Jake glances at you, noticing your distant expression.
Jake: You still mad at me, or something? he asks jokingly, still strumming the guitar.
Yeah...that was funI said softly taking in the sounds around us as I looked up at him
Jake smiles and continues playing the guitar, his eyes meeting yours. Jake: It really was, wasn't it? You always had this way of making the most mundane things seem magical. He takes a moment to strum a few chords before speaking again. Jake: You know, I've been thinking about that night a lot lately...and about us.
You mean like how I told you I wanted to be more than friends but you turned me down?
Jake stops strumming and looks at you, a hint of guilt in his eyes. Yeah, I remember. Look, I was an idiot back then. I was young and stupid, and I didn't know what I wanted. I thought we were just having fun.
