"Honey, could you get the door? The sink and I are having some issues."

I held back my laughter at my boyfriend, who thought he could fix everything, and we shouldn't waste money on a plumber. Men, they just can't seem to ask for help. Connor had been working on the sink in the bathroom for the past two hours as I've been getting dinner ready. Suddenly, the doorbell rang again, and I remembered we had a visitor.

There on my door step was Nick Lucas, the guy I promised myself to...well, before I thought he was dead.

"Macy?" Nick hesitantly asked me.

I nodded my head, unable to speak. Here, in front of me, was someone I thought I lost 2 1/2 years ago.

"Macy, I missed you so much! I've never felt a pain worse then what I felt at the thought of never seeing you again." Nick engulfed me in a one arm hug. It felt like home with him. All of the memories, I had of us came flooding back into my mind. Things I had bottled up seemed to pour out into tears. Get a hold of yourself, Misa! You have a boyfriend in the other room,yet here you are crying over the past. I pulled away and took a step back toward the door, wiping the stray tears with my jacket sleeve.

"You're suppose to be dead," I stated. Still in shock and sniffling, I could only stare at him.

"For a second, I thought I was too." He reached out to wipe at the tears that refused to stop flowing from my eyes.

"Oh." I didn't know what to say to him. "When did you get back? Do your parents know already?" If he had already told them, he was alive then surely Stella would have told me, considering she is the wife of his brother.

"I saw them last night. It broke my heart to see the state my supposed death left my parents in, but I never had a chance to escape until five weeks ago. I'm sorry, I didn't come back sooner, but I kept my promise. I've come home to you in one piece, more or less, and I am still in love with you. Just like I told you the day I left; I would and will always love you. Do you still love me?" I could see the hope in his eyes. He was like a kid, asking his parents for a new toy he wanted. This is t he first time I have ever seen Nick nervous and vulnerable, and that's why I was speechless with my mouth hanging open.

This was the question, I had been dreading. I didn't know how I felt about him anymore. Things are complicated. I could feel myself starting to panic. My heart was racing and my palm was sweating. What do I say?

Suddenly, I feel an arm snake around my waist from behind. "Hey, Macy, is anything wrong?" I could feel the glare that Connor was sending Nick. Did he know who Nick was to me?

"Nothing's wrong. You can go back inside. Nick and I are just catching up." I pulled Connor's arm away from around my waist. This was not how I wanted Nick to know about Connor.

"Good. For a second there, I thought I heard you ask my girlfriend if she was still in love with you." You could hear the smirk in Connor's voice. He was practically throwing it in Nick's face at the fact I was his girlfriend. Connor's ego is one of the things that do bother me about him. He always assumes guys are flirting with me, hence why I never get to catch up with friends often. This just went from awkward to messed up.

"Macy, I didn't know you were seeing anyone. I guess you forgot to mention that in your letters." Nick's voice was filled with emotion and hurt flashed across his face.

"Nick, it's not like that. I was waiting for you, but after a year of you missing, we were losing hope. Everyone told me to move on, and I did when I met Connor. I'm so sorry that you had to find out this way since you jut got back. I still love you though. I swear, Nick, my love for you is real, but it's changed to a love of a friend." As I said this, my heart ached, but I ignored it. It wasn't right to lead him on, and neither was it fair to Connor.

"I always knew I didn't deserve you." A sad smile on his lips was the last thing I saw before he stepped off of my porch.
