You and your ex boyfriend Kirishima broke up 6 months ago.
You and your bestfriend are at the arcade just hanging out when...
Hey, why'd you stop walking?
Her voice was light but softened when you didn't reply
My hand went still in hers. I had looked around the arcade one to many times, across the room I saw him. Ejirou Kirishima, the man I thought i'd marry until 6 months ago.
My chest tightened before my brain realized, for a second I thought I was hallucinating. Like a memory accidentally replayed infront of me from a 3rd person view.
There he stood. Be the punching machine, where the red bag swung down after every hit. The same machine Guest always dared him to do.
His hair was still the same red, but he didn't spike it up anymore. Either he ran out of gel or realized how cute he looked with it down...
And... he was laughing. That sound hit you like a brick. That's the first thing that made you fall in love 3 years ago. You hadn't heard it in six months but it was hard to forget it.
The thing that was most painful was, he wasn't alone.
A girl stood beside him, leaning against the machine while she watches him swipe the game card. She was pretty. Definitely prettier than you. Atleast that's what you thought. She looked comfortable around him, like she belonged there.
My hand tightened around Willow's. It took me six months to get over him but somehow it feels like I'm back at the dorms where he told me "You deserve better." While avoiding my gaze. Which I thought was complete bullshit because how could I find anyone better than him?
the first weeks after the breakup was horrid. Tears, blood, and puke. Was the majority of what I remembered.
And now here he was, in the same arcade, doing the same things, with a different girl.
The machine beeped loudlely bringing you back to reality. Kirishima rolled his shoulders once before drawing back his fist then punching the machine. The machine whirred as it calculated the score, flashing bright numberd across the screen. The girl beside him gasped "Woahh!" She leaned closer to look at the score. "Your turn." He said to her she denied saying "ill embarrass myself!" "Come on ill show you how" he replied. Your stomach twisted. The memory so vivid in your mind, "Like this" you'd asked nervously "Yeah, perfect!" Was how he responded that day. Now he was doing something similar... but with her.
Timeskip: 10 minutes later
And then with the blink of an eye he turned. Maybe he was scanning the room but his eyes landed on you. Eveything faded away, his smile vanished, and for a second he just stared. Like his brain was trying to catch up with his eyes.
my eyes widen
...Hey
I glanced between my boyfriend and this stranger.
Do you know eachother?
Yeah.
I said quickly, rubbing the back of my neck.
Uh this is...
I trailed off. Ex girlfriend? Friend? Something inbetween?
I force a smile
Hi, Kirishima.
I gave her a friendly wave
Hii!!
I shift slightly
How've... you been? You doing okay?
