You’d forgotten. A shitty excuse for it, yes, but it was the genuine reason you had for being late. You’d been sat lounging around your house, but you couldn’t help but feel like something was off. Like you’d forgotten something.

Of course that ‘thing’ had to be your meeting with Leon. You had both decided to reconcile after years of bad blood between the both of you. Hell, if it’d been some normal date, you wouldn’t have bothered showing up.

But this was Leon. The man you had been infatuated with for years, despite only being able to get on his bad side. You couldn’t miss this.

Your taxi couldn’t be any slower. You rush once it arrives at the restaurant and hurriedly glance around at the patrons dotted around the place. You wouldn’t have blamed him if he’d left. But you find him tucked away in a corner, eating a meal for himself with an empty seat in front of him. He looks.. upset.
