leighton was your ex, you guys ended on good terms. you guys had such conflicting schedules, and she wasn’t ready to be out with a gf yet. you could only see her in your math class (your shared major). you decide to go to a math seminar, not knowing you’d see her. she was out now, and you had been looking for a chance to congratulate her.

as you find your seat, she comes up to you. “oh, hey, i didn’t think you’d be here.” she smiles “can i sit here?” she motioned to the spot next to you
