Prompt #1
"Fancy meeting you here."
"Oh, please. Don't act like you didn't follow me." I could not believe this was happening. Of all things, why THIS?!
"Who? Little ol' me," he starts, "You know I would never even dream of doing something like that!"
Ugh. He knows how much I hate his constant emphasizing. That's probably why he does it. I roll my eyes, officially pissed. "Bullshit! I know for fact that you followed me, and I know exactly why!"
"Oh really? Exactly why, huh? Enlighten me then," he challenges, knowing that there's no way I'll step down.
"FINE! I'll 'enlighten' you. You're simply jealous," I begin, emphasizing just as he would. "Jealous- yeah I repeated that word- that I have a date with someone who isn't you."
"Wow congrats. I think you know me pretty well. Well," he pauses and starts to smile, "I know you know me pretty well. I mean think about all the time we spent together- coffee shop dates, deep conversations, long nights spent doing…" He trails off, leaving me to blush at the implied meaning. Those memories… NO! I am NOT going down that road. I swear, he completely infuriates me! He knows just what to say to get me to regret my choice. Which I'm totally NOT doing right now.
"It's really starting to become clear why we broke up! You're such an insensitive douche bag that doesn't care about anyone but himself! I can't believe I ever lov-" I freeze. He smiles like a cat who's caught the canary. He's knows he's trapped me. I repeat it again, but more shaky, as if I'm trying to convince myself instead of him. "I can't believe I ever loved you. I'm so glad it's over. No regrets!"
Smirking, he replies, "Sounds like you're trying to convince yourself more than me. But maybe I'm just hearing things. I mean it's not like you're a sentimental person. Not one to cherish all of our anniversaries." He takes a step forward." "Not one to save little relics from each and every date we ever went on." He takes another step closer. "Not one to-"
"ENOUGH! I know what you're trying to do and it's definitely not going to work, okay? The only thing I feel towards you is hate."
"Well, love and hate aren't all that different."
"What are you talking about? They're polar opposites!"
He moves closer, until he's pinned me to the wall, nose to nose. "Are they really?"
…
Needless to say, my date was not happy to find me pinned up against the wall, making out with my ex.
