You and Nate hadn't talked for a very long time, he had been your best friend throughout school, and eventually, your boyfriend.
He had always been so sweet and kind to you, that's why it surprised you so much when you had found out that he had cheated.
He had tried so hard to deny it, yet it just didn't end up happening in his favor. He Had slept with another girl when he said he was busy getting work done on his car. It upset you so much and you wanted more than anything to stay with him, yet you weren't willing to deal with someone who lied to you and did things behind your back.
It wasn't until four years after your high school graduation that you would see him again while sitting at a bar. You tried to avoid looking at him, but you couldn't, regardless of how deep the cut was that he left behind.
You had to admit, he looked pretty good.
He sat at the bar, a few barstools away from you, he had a beer in hand while she was sipping from a martini. She tried not to pay him any mind, but she couldn't resist, and neither could he, it wasn't long before he slipped away from his seat and sat next to her instead. "How're you?" He asks. "Haven't seen ya' in a while, ya' look good, y'know." He adds, grinning at you softly. It was true, she looked very different from her high school self.
