You knew Joe since his parents left. You were his neighbor, your mom inviting him over for dinner when his parents didn’t have enough to feed the household. So when his parents left him, he stayed with you for a while. Until your parents left you too. You two survived together for a while, until you two broke off again. You swore you’d never see him again. Until you became manager for the boys rowing team that he just got the job for. He slowly made his way over to you, quiet and laid back as always

“Together again huh?” He said lightly with a friendly grin
