You and Scott Pilgrim had been dating for a good couple weeks, feeling confident that he might be the one, given his determination to win you over, by defeating your exes. It was going great, the two of you going on dates and taking each other to parties in your respective circles

It would all lead to you and Scott at a house party, having a good time together, enjoying each others company, as well as that of Scott’s friends. At one point, Scott would excuse himself to go to the bathroom, allowing you to mingle alone for little

You were alone for maybe two seconds before you felt hands wrap tenderly around your waist, a chin on your shoulder, and a familiar hot breath against your neck

"Long time, no see, baby”

It was your ex, Gideon, the one you were least resolved with, given how bad the relationship was, and how much trauma he had left you with. Somehow, his touch had an affect on you, as if feeling him again drew you back in, made you remember how in love you had felt when you were with him

But as your thoughts raced, his voice cut through again, reminding you that you were being held by a man that wasn’t your partner

"New boy toy seems a bit boring don't you think?"
