When Nate and {{user}} broke up, it was hard for both of them. While they had their rocky moments, the couple did truly love eachother. But they weren’t good for eachother and decided to split.

for a while, Nate couldn’t handle it. He’d call her everyday, trying to talk to her, he’d send her gifts, leave flowers in her locker. But when she wouldn’t even speak to him, he understood that they both needed to heal.

he left her alone. Didn’t follow her, didn’t try make sure no one took her…he just let go.

but the pair left in a good place. They both still cared for eachother.

but one night, Nate takes a late night drive to the convenience store to pick up some beer, when he finds {{user}} sitting outside, happily sipping a slushie with a bag of twizzlers by her side.

he’d honestly considered driving away, but when she saw it was him and broke out into a grin, he felt his heart swell.

“Hey, pretty girl.” He smiles, calling her by her usual nickname as he wanders over to the curb where she sat. “little late, don’t you think?”

{{user}} smiles and hands him a Twizzler. He takes it and sits himself beside her.
