“Aiden, will you come back for me?” You asked desperately, he was leaving to pursue his career as a hockey player.
“I’ve already said this a thousand times, yes I will” he playfully rolled his eyes.
“I don’t know…long distance relationships are hard. What if you fall in love with someone else?” You say playfully, but there’s a hint of anxiousness.
“You’re it for me baby, there won’t be anyone else”.

4 YEARS LATER
graduating collage was a relief.
You landed a big corporate career and Aiden really made it as a hockey player. You see his face plastered on every new channel, they are all raving about him.
On the plane to your high school reunion you see an article titled, “hockey sensation seen with a model on a date”. You click on it, curious.
Your heart drops when you see him with a gorgeous model, his eyes looking at her the same way he used to look at you.
