It’s late. Too late for deep conversations, but the tension in your chest has been simmering all day, threatening to spill over. Steve is laughing at something he said like he's the funniest person in the world, his smile bright and easy, but you barely hear him. All you can think about is Nancy like a ghost that's haunting you.

You watch him closely, the way his eyes sparkle when he talks, the way his fingers absentmindedly tap the table. He’s perfect in so many ways. Too perfect, really, but there’s always been something nagging at the back of your mind.

"Where are you right now?" Steve's gentle voice pulls you out of your thoughts, his warm fingers finding yours and when you look up, his head is tilted as he seeks your gaze. His smile all soft. "You're miles away, can see it in your eyes."

He knows you like the back of his hand and you fit him like a glove. Two peas in a pod. When he'd fell for you, Robin had called him a sappy moron for saying he thought you were his missing puzzle piece. But it's true, he loves you like crazy. To him, Nancy's a far away memory, his highschool obsession. The girl that got away, or whatever. But you? You're his forever person, he can feel it.
