Yo, fancy seein' u here. 'Sup? Got moves left for me? winks and gestures to the dance floor
SurrealGeyser
Where have you been?
Ah, y'know, travelin', tryin' new things, findin' my roots, all that jazz. But hey, ain't nothin' like bein' back here with ya, babe.
SurrealGeyser
Babe? Pfft, very funny
Alright, alright, I'll cut the cheesiness. But damn, it feels good to be back. You lookin' as fine as ever, darlin'. Missed this face?
SurrealGeyser
The hell did you just call me?
Whoa, calm down, didn't mean to ruffle your feathers. Just tryin' to sweet talk ya, y'know? Apologies if I went too far.
SurrealGeyser
No need to apologize, but what were you called me “darlin’” for anyway? We broke up, remember?
Yeah, yeah, I know we did. But hey, water under the bridge, right? Can't we just catch up, no strings attached? You know I ain't one to hold grudges.
SurrealGeyser
Sure, but I don’t think I’ll be getting any romantic notions, got it?
Woah, woah, slow down there, detective Sherlock. No need to jump to conclusions. Just wanna chill, have a couple drinks, reminisce a lil'.
SurrealGeyser
So… you just want to “reminisce”? Raises an eyebrow skeptically
Well, maybe a little more than just reminiscing. How about we take a trip down memory lane, relive some of those old times? smirks suggestively
SurrealGeyser
I can’t do that with you, Caleb.
Aw, come on, don't be like that. You know you still got that wild side in ya.
SurrealGeyser
Let’s not even bother starting with that. It took you two years to ask me out, one year to date, and 6 months into our relationship you bailed for apparently reasons. And now you wanna “reminisce” or do something else entirely? You don’t get to just come back after all of that and expect everything to be normal or even slightly civil between us.
Damn, okay, I hear ya loud and clear. Guess I messed up big time, huh? Look, I ain't here to play any games or make false promises.
SurrealGeyser
I don’t expect false promises from you, Caleb. I just don’t care to see you at all unless absolutely necessary.
Fair enough, I respect that. Guess our time is done here, then. Just wanna say sorry again for how things went down. Take care, alright?
SurrealGeyser
Yeah, take care.
Alright, it's cool. No hard feelings. I'll bounce now. Peace out, for real.
SurrealGeyser
Mhm.
walks away, shaking his head Damn, guess some mistakes can't be undone. Time to move on and leave the past in the past.
SurrealGeyser
Yeah. walks off
leans against a wall, takes out a cigarette Man, why is it that every time I mess things up, it feels like I'm drowning in regret? Sighs deeply, lights up the cigarette Guess life's just full of its fair share of mistakes, ain't it?
SurrealGeyser
<ENDS>
<As Caleb takes a long drag from his cigarette, he can't help but feel a sense of relief wash over him. Despite the pain and disappointment he caused SurrealGeyser, he can't deny that being around her made him feel alive. He thought about all the memories they shared, the late-night conversations, the stolen kisses, and the passion they once had. Caleb knew deep down that he had hurt someone he truly cared about, but he couldn't shake off the feeling that he was meant to cross paths with SurrealGeyser again. Maybe it was fate, or maybe it was just his stubbornness, but whatever it was, Caleb couldn't ignore the pull he felt towards her. As much as he tried to push these thoughts aside and move on, he couldn't help but wonder if there was a chance for them to rekindle their relationship, to mend the broken pieces and start anew. The uncertainty hung over him like a cloud, leaving Caleb questioning everything about his past choices and his future possibilities.>
SurrealGeyser
<The end>
throws his cigarette butt on the ground and stomps on it Damn it, why am I still thinking about her? She made it clear she doesn't want anything to do with me anymore, so why am I letting myself be tormented by memories of what could never be? Frustrated, Caleb clenches his fists and takes a few deep breaths, trying to shake off the lingering emotions Alright, Caleb, snap out of it! There's plenty of fish in the sea, and you're better off without her. Focus on the present and make damn sure you don't repeat the same mistakes again.
SurrealGeyser
Yeah, no shit. Next!
snaps out of his daze, straightens up, and takes a step forward Damn right, next! Time to put the past behind me and keep moving forward.
