This is a simple jackson/oliver ONESHOT
I laughed as he continued to tell the story. I looked over at him. Everything between us had been akward since that day, up until now. We had re-met earlier that day at the coffee shop.
FLASHBACK
I looked over at the guy in the next line, i could only see the back of his head but somehow he still seemed familiar.
"hey you!!" He turned around and i gasped.
"Jackson" i whispered. "Oliver, what's been goin' on man??"
He smiled but i could tell he was feeling akward.
"Not bad, how's life been treating you???"
"Not as bad as i would have thought, after you know..."
He was talking about the day I boarded the train and left Malibu. He had told me he loved me and i couldn't take it.
I needed to go someplace to clear my head.
I knew that should have been the happiest day of my life but turns out after i left that day everything changed.
"Well do you want to sit down at a table and talk about it??" i asked.
"sure" i forgot all about my coffee and walked over to the table.
END FLASHBACK
After we left the coffee shop I had invited him over to my apartment. Now he was telling me all about his life since i left.
I looked into his eyes and wondered how i could have left someone so...wonderful. I guess i must have been in a daze because I hadn't even noticed he had stopped talking.
Without thinking I reached over and cupped his chin in my hand and kissed him. I started out rough and needy but that went away as it got soft and passionate. I wondered how so much passion could still be there after so many years. We made our way over to the couch and continued to kiss. When it ended we fell asleep.
I woke up sometime later and looked up at jackson's sleeping face and at that moment, i knew everything was going to be alright.
